In mid-March, this year's "draft" finally kicked off in the palace.

On this day, all the noble mansions in Kyoto where noble women participated in the election sent their noble daughters into the palace gate according to the rules.

Just as the palace gate is as deep as the sea, their respective futures in the future can only rely on individuals.

Chi Linglong nodded indifferently after hearing Ah Ren tell her that the eighth and ninth girls of the Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion had also entered the palace.

If you want her to say that her eighth sister is a person who can endure what ordinary people can't bear, and her mental strength and resourcefulness have passed, this time she escaped the control of the Lin family, and when she entered the palace, she was like a fish into the sea, maybe she could really break out of her own world in the palace.

Chi Linglong was not worried about the eighth girl at all, but she was a little unbearable for the ninth girl Chi Ming to enter the palace.

She always thought that Chi Mingshu had a different background, and she was categorically unwilling to enter the palace, and if she didn't have the ability to be in the first two levels, she would be beaten back, and the Zhou family was unwilling to pay for her, so her only way out was to come to her for help.

Chi Linglong didn't mind helping Chi Mingshu, but unfortunately, she waited and waited, waited for so long, and didn't wait for Chi Mingshu, but only waited for the news that she had entered the palace.

Chi Linglong was a little frustrated, so she no longer listened to these things, and she was busy with affairs at home, and since the child learned to run, he was even more noisy and could not be quiet all day long.

Therefore, Chi Linglong only worked hard in the morning, and then forgot Chi Mingshu again, and began to tangle with what gift to give to the Queen Mother in May.

May is the Queen Mother's Thousand Autumn Festival, the Queen Mother is happy and peaceful, has not held a birthday banquet for many years, but this year is the Queen Mother's 60th birthday, is the whole birthday, the birthday banquet is naturally to be held, and it must be held extremely grand.

Because of this matter in the palace, the four concubines of Guide and Xianshu have started to organize all the matters of the birthday banquet since March, and even the rest of the lower-ranked concubines have already written letters to their families, asking for advice, and at the same time they have racked their brains and began to think about what kind of congratulatory gifts to give to the queen mother, so as to attract the praise of the queen mother and the emperor's eyes.

Everyone in the palace was busy, and Chi Linglong couldn't help but think about the birthday ceremony.

She married into the Qin Palace, not because she didn't participate in the birthday banquet of the old ladies in the noble mansion in Kyoto, nor did she not have a birthday gift; But many noble mansions in Kyoto are basically all short in the Qin Palace, no matter what congratulatory gifts she sends over, as long as she is present, those people will naturally only be obedient and respectful.

But the Queen Mother's Qianqiu Festival is different, this can be said to be one of the most solemn festivals in the world in addition to the emperor's longevity, how can you send some congratulatory gifts to pass away.

And on such an important day, everyone is watching, Qin Wangfu's every move is intriguing, and the congratulatory gift she gave must be both far-reaching and in line with the Queen Mother's intentions, otherwise, it will inevitably be squeezed again.

Chi Linglong pondered for a long afternoon, but she didn't come up with a reason, so in desperation, she could only go to Yulan Hall to find Sun Liuli for help.

Sun Liuli rarely came to Zhiyuanzhai during this time, and this situation seems to have started from the last time Qianshizi came over, and Sun Wuji came back to Yulan Hall with a bad face.

At first, Chi Linglong didn't notice it, but in the past few days, Sun Liuli's expression has become more and more melancholy, and the whole person is a little depressed, Chi Linglong has to convince herself at this time that nothing happened that day, and she doesn't believe it herself.

It must have been something that my cousin and cousin said that led to Sun Liuli's soul in the past few days, but neither of them was willing to tell her the truth, and she didn't want to stalk her to find out.

When I arrived at Yulan Hall, I really saw Sun Liuli lying on the chaise longue under the kapok tree and pretending to sleep.

It is three and a half months, it is the time when the kapok is in full bloom, there are three more than 100-year-old kapok trees in front of the Yulan Hall Flower Hall, the plants are stout, the branches are numerous, every season, the blooming kapok is dense and dense, squeezed next to each other in the air, from a distance, it looks like a piece of red brocade, or the burning fire clouds in general, the magnificent and beautiful, amazing and compelling.

And Sun Liuli, who was lying in the chaise longue, was still wearing a red dress, her black hair was swaying in the wind like ink, and her fair and extremely charming face was suffocating against the backdrop of one place and one scene on this day.

Such a picture made Chi Linglong stunned and couldn't lift her feet, so she could only be stunned in place, and even tried her best to relax her breathing, lest she accidentally wake up the peerless beauty who was pretending to sleep.

Unexpectedly, when she was amazing and irrepressible, Sun Liuli had already opened her black and shiny eyes, and her eyes were clear with a little sharpness, very clear, where was the way to wake up?

It seems that I was really just pretending to sleep and didn't fall asleep.

"Why are you here now?" Sun Liuli didn't get up, still lying on the chaise longue and closing her eyes.

Chi Linglong walked over, sat down on the small pestle beside her, took away a book on her belly, put it on the small table on one side, and said, "I'm bored, just come over to my cousin here and talk for a while." ”

The little hand rubbed against Sun Liuli's cold fingers, and Chi Linglong took Sun Liuli's hand over angrily and put it in the palm of his hand to warm it, "The sun is good today, it's still a little cold, you are wearing too thin, you should wear thicker." What's more, it's almost sunset now, so don't sit in the courtyard, hurry back to the flower hall. ”

Qianjiao Baimei and Yin Ziyan both looked at Chi Linglong gratefully, which also made Chi Linglong laugh.

Feelings, these girls have been persuaded just now, but it's a pity that Sun Liuli didn't listen.

"It's okay, I'll lie down a little longer." Sun Liuli said lazily.

"What are you lying down, get up quickly, you didn't see that your girls were about to cry." Chi Linglong smiled and pulled up Sun Liuli, who was reluctant to move, and several girls hurriedly came over to help, and hugged the two into the flower hall.

Sun Liuli's previous depressed spirit was dispersed, and after being abducted into the flower hall by Chi Linglong, her spirit was much better, so she also asked her again, "What's the matter, I don't know you yet, I'm too lazy to do it, it's almost dinner at this time, and you ran to me again, saying that it's okay, I will believe it?" ”

Chi Linglong smiled and said, "Cousin is clever." ”

"Don't pat the horse's hooves, if you have something to say, go back quickly, otherwise, Qin Chengsi will definitely send someone to find it later."

Chi Linglong pursed her lips, and said that she wanted to find her to get an idea and help send a congratulatory gift to the Queen Mother.

I don't know if it's her delusion, as if as soon as she said "Queen Mother", Sun Liuli's face turned cold, and when she finished talking about the cause and effect of the matter, Sun Liuli's cold eyes could shoot out ice blades.

"Why didn't you say it?"

Before Chi Linglong finished speaking, she closed her mouth under Sun Liuli's cold gaze.

In fact, Chi Linglong is still depressed, what she said is obviously very ordinary, why is it like stabbing Sun Liuli's heart with a knife?

Look, this cousin looks at her now, there is resentment and hatred, it is like looking at the enemy who killed her father.

Well, maybe the anger wasn't directed at her, but ...... Going to the Queen Mother?

Chi Linglong sat on the chair obediently, looking at Sun Liuli stupidly, not knowing what to say.

Sun Liuli seemed to be very angry, she closed her eyes, as if she was relieving her tense feelings, and then opened them after a long time, the anger and hatred in her eyes disappeared, of course, what kind of warm atmosphere that had been cultivated before, it just disappeared.

Sun Liuliyun said lightly, "If you want to ask me for an idea, I have some ideas, heh, just give her a pack of poison. Isn't medicine just ......" yes.

Sun Liuli finally said the word "yes" before she was interrupted by Qianjiao's sudden "girl".

However, Qianjiao interrupted too late, Sun Liuli said something that shouldn't be said, and Chi Linglong had already memorized those two words in her head.

Send a congratulatory gift and send a pack of poisons. Medicine, what kind of monstrous resentment should this be, to be able to do, such a strange and extremely resentful thing?

Chi Linglong wanted to ask Sun Liuli, what happened in the past few days? How could the two of them be able to talk freely about the prince, princess, and county lord in the palace some time ago, but now, she just mentioned a congratulatory gift to the queen mother, Sun Liuli's temperament changed greatly, as if she couldn't let the old woman go to hell.

Chi Linglong knew that because the Queen Mother had repeatedly stuffed people into the Qin Palace, she was angry in her heart, and she was not less petty in front of Sun Liuli, burying the Queen Mother, because of her, Sun Liuli naturally didn't like the old lady.

However, when she was mentioned in the past, Sun Liuli sneered at best, looking disdainful, how could she get it now...... It's like there is some national enmity and family hatred between the two, and they want to die.

Chi Linglong froze in place, speechless, and Sun Liuli, who came back to her senses, couldn't help but wrinkle her brows with a headache, rubbed her forehead with one hand, rubbed her temples, and said exhaustedly: "Don't worry, cousin is joking." ”

Chi Linglong nodded dumbly, Sun Liuli sighed sarcastically as if self-deprecating, and then said, "Ah Yu, my cousin didn't have a birthday ceremony, you can make up your own mind." ”

"Oh."

"Let's go back, wait for my cousin to calm down, and I'll look for you in two days."

Chi Linglong nodded, and Baimei had already walked up to her at this time, and said, "Princess, the slave will send you back." ”

"No, you go and make some contemplative flower tea for your cousin, and by the way, send someone to go back to Zhiyuanzhai with me, where do I still have some soothing incense, and I will also bring it to my cousin."

When Chi Linglong was about to walk out of the flower hall, she couldn't help but turn her head again, looking at Sun Liuli, who was sitting on the chair with a depressed and lonely look, and struggled for a while before she said again, "Cousin, I am your cousin, and I will never betray you." If you have any troubles, tell me that I may not be able to help, but I can give you a place to talk. It's better to say things than to keep it in your heart and hold it out of your illness......"
