The palace banquet of the Queen Mother is scheduled for the eighth day of this month. Because of the unlucky thing in Weiyang Palace last time, the Queen Mother deliberately chose an auspicious day for the zodiac, and even the location was selected in Kunning Palace, which shows that the Queen Mother attaches great importance to this dinner.

The last palace banquet killed someone, and this time it was an official selection of concubines, and there is no room for mistakes.

When it was still early, Ling Huquan arrived at the full moon of the Pujia Pavilion, and saw that the full moon was dressing up, Ling Huquan couldn't help but smile slightly, and said lightly,

"Girl, today is a concubine banquet, which of the daughters next to you is not a showman, why is it so pure and refreshing when you come here?"

Full Moon instructed Ximeng and Ning Jing to prepare for something else, and got up to personally refill the tea for Linghu Spring.

"Auntie, the full moon of the last dinner almost lost my life, everyone knows that I am a broom star, and I am not the protagonist, it is a dinner party that has nothing to do with me, but it is just to increase knowledge, one more me, one less me, all the same."

The words of the full moon made Ling Huquan raise his eyebrows slightly, this niece is clear-minded, more calm and thorough than ordinary people. It's just that sometimes Ling Huquan thinks that she is too calm, not at all like the courage and concentration that a fourteen-year-old girl should have.

She is not like ordinary girls, she will be nervous and not restful well when she participates in the palace banquet, and she doesn't know what set of clothes to wear and how to dress up when she arrives on the day. Look at her in an elegant blue dress, a plain pearl waist chain, a simple heart-picking bun, refreshing, natural and simple, such a mentality and courage, how many people in the world have?

can be such a transparent and reasonable girl, but the old lady just can't look down on it! I like the children in the second room.

"Girl, you should know that the world is unpredictable, but I am here today, plus what happened last time, I want to come - the people in the second room dare not do anything in the palace, and at today's dinner, my aunt also wants to see your ability." Ling Huquan has something to say.

If the full moon is a treasure, it should not be buried again. But sometimes she feels that she is too smart and transparent, but she finds an ordinary family to live more stable. It's just that the world is unpredictable, and it may not be as desired!

If she is a treasure, sooner or later she will be discovered. At that time, I can't hide it even if I want to.

"Auntie, when the full moon was in the Hou Mansion, she was still young, and she could remember very little, and later went to the county seat, and she didn't have the opportunity to contact the outside life, and the full moon will definitely follow the rules and live a stable life. Auntie, rest assured. The full moon smiled at Linghu Quan, and his smile was clear and clear.

If this is said to others, such as the old lady or those in the second room, I am afraid that it will be a different understanding, which can make Huquan understand for the full moon, and it can be simple and homely to talk to her.

Ling Huquan smiled, but his face was not relaxed.

Today's dinner party will be peaceful and singing and dancing on the surface, but inside - it must be you fighting for me and the bloody wind!

Although there is no blood in the battlefield set off for the selection of concubines, it is more hideous and dangerous than a river of blood.

――

Because the queen mother has a will, but all the royal court officials above the fourth rank have daughters, regardless of the age of the concubine, they must attend the dinner, even underage men can also participate.

Ling Huquan brought a carriage of the full moon and thrilling, the old lady had a carriage alone, and the second lady took a carriage from Linghu Pingxue and Linghu Zilu. Originally, the third lady also wanted to take Chang'an into the palace to see the excitement, but the old lady only allowed Chang'an to enter the palace, and the third lady was not allowed to go with her, the third lady cared about Chang'an's safety, gritted her teeth, although she was unwilling, but she didn't dare to hand Chang'an over to the old lady, the last incident almost ruined Chang'an's life, and the third lady was unwilling, and she would not gamble with Chang'an's life.

The three carriages went out of the gate of the Hou Mansion in turn.

In the car, the full moon looked at Linghu with eyes as pure as a deer, and somehow, the pupils were sore and astringent. Does the seven-year-old Jinglie understand his situation in the Hou Mansion and her identity as a sister?

She remembered that in the previous life, the seven-year-old Jinglie was already very sensible, at that time she had just come back, and she didn't know what she heard at the beginning of the shocking period, and she didn't accept her, she went against her everywhere, and spoke against her, until she married Lin Donghe, and left Jinglie by Lin Donghe's side as a deputy general.

Full Moon was thinking about it, Leng Buding held her hand with a small hand, Full Moon's body trembled slightly, and when she looked down, she saw her staring at her with big eyes and a look of longing for purity.

"Sister." Shockedly, he opened his mouth but did not make a sound.

The full moon looked at Linghu Quan, who was resting with his eyes closed, wondering if he was asleep. So the shock is only action at the moment, and there is no sound.

Full Moon pursed her lips at him and smiled slightly, opened his little hand, and wrote a few words on the palm of his hand,

"Don't you hate me? They all call me a broom star. ”

After writing, I saw that the shocked brows frowned very disapprovingly, and then hooked the cute index finger and wrote in the palm of the full moon,

"You're a sister, not a broom star." Shocked pursed his mouth slightly, and his bright eyes looked at the full moon without blinking.

Then, in the palm of the full moon, he wrote,

"The prince said that my sister is the smartest in the world, isn't it?"

After writing this sentence, he smiled mischievously at the full moon, but the full moon involuntarily twitched the corners of his lips.

It turned out to be Lin Jian-

No wonder Shock's attitude towards her is different from the previous life.

"How many times have you met the prince?" The full moon is written in a frightening handwriting.

"Twice." Shocking and honest.

The full moon suddenly realized and nodded.

I see.

The first time Jing Lie saw Lin Jian, it should be the time when the second lady gave her an aphrodisiac and sent someone to kidnap Jing Lie, as for the second time, Lin Jian Gui is a dignified prince, and it is not difficult to see Jing Lie once without knowing it. It must have been Lin Jian who heard the words that Shocking didn't understand about the full moon from Shocking's mouth, so Lin Jian said something to reverse Shocking's impression of the full moon.

Jinglie is still young, and the old lady has not been waiting to see him, the only eldest brother Ling Hujie can't wait to have this younger brother, Jinglie has never tasted the love of brothers and sisters since he was a child, and now Lin Jiangui is the prince, like the eldest brother, he is righteous, Jinglie is a clever and intelligent child, and it is not surprising that her attitude has changed.

It's just that I didn't expect that Lin Jian actually knew how to start from Shock.

I'm afraid that as early as the night of the Hou Mansion, Lin Jian saw the importance of Thrill to the full moon, since the two want to cooperate, Lin Jian has gained Shock's trust, which is equivalent to gaining recognition here in the full moon. Thrilling is the closest person to the full moon.

Lin Jian's step is steady and steady, but it hits the nail on the head!

Therefore, how can ordinary people guess the depth of their thoughts of a harmless person with a warm spring breeze and a sunny face on the surface?

Full Moon gently patted Shock's hand, and Hitomi blinked, not speaking, just holding Shock's hand tightly.

Thrilling is her younger brother, in this life, his safety and happiness are guarded by her! She would not allow the disaster of the previous life to befall Shock!

The carriage went all the way to the gate of the palace, and everyone got off.

The full moon followed Ling Huquan's side, holding Thrill with one hand.

The old lady's carriage in front drove directly into the palace after being inspected. The Queen Mother thought that the old lady was old, so she allowed her to enter the palace by car.

Behind him was the carriage of the second lady.

Approaching the time of the dinner, outside the palace gate was the carriage of the ladies and daughters of each family, and everyone was rushing in, and when they saw the carriage of the Hou Mansion stopped, they all stopped and turned to look.

Ling Hu Zilu and the second lady stepped out of the carriage first.

Ling Hu Zilu swept away the decadence of the past few days, a peach-colored long skirt was gorgeous and dazzling, her body was ringing and dingdong, her hair was carefully combed into a ten brocade begonia flower bun, and twelve peach hairpins were inserted obliquely, shining and eye-catching.

Ling Hu Zilu was originally just a delicate and bright appearance, but today's dress up covered up the beauty and highlighted the gorgeous, although it is not an exaggeration, but it lacks a beautiful appearance, which is a bit deliberate.

The second lady is also well-dressed, with a colorful long skirt and stacked emerald hair accessories, which is graceful and noble, flashy but not glamorous.

The last to get out of the carriage was naturally Linghu Pingxue. The second lady deliberately arranged it this way, so that Linghu Pingxue became the focus of everyone's eyes at this moment. Seeing the curtain of the carriage slowly lifted, a slender jade hand greedily came out, and the white fingers alone gave people the feeling of suffocation.

Ling Huquan turned his head to look at the full moon at this time, and said lightly,

"Let's go."

"Yes, Auntie." The full moon was silent and followed Ling Hu Quan's feet and left, not caring at all how Ling Hu Pingxue was dressed behind him, which amazed everyone's attention.

It is a consistent style to make Hu Pingxue look good, and it is a consistent style not to lose to others in public, and you can guess what kind of exclamations everyone will make for a while without looking. But--Although today is the concubine selection banquet held by the Queen Mother, who wins and who loses, it is not a matter of elaborate dressing.

The situation at the dinner is changing rapidly, and only the winner is the one who suffers last! The last laugh is the laugh! Linghu Pingxue was so showy at the beginning, and the more jealousy he provoked, the more difficult the road behind him became.

Sure enough, there were bursts of gasps and discussions behind the full moon and Linghu Quan, most of them were admiration and envy for Pinghu Pingxue's appearance.

Ling Huquan's face turned cold, he didn't say anything on the surface, and his dissatisfaction with the second lady and Ling Hu Pingxue in his heart had reached the extreme. Today is the concubine selection banquet, and later it will be five levels and six generals, what is needed at this moment is to recuperate and be low-key and cautious, not to be in the limelight at this time, for fear that others will not know how the second lady of the Hou Mansion will fall into the city and the country! The Queen Mother and the Queen are not fools, they will not just look at their looks and not their deeds!

The full moon held a frightened hand and quietly followed behind Ling Huquan, not far ahead, there were faint two lines of sight projected towards her, and in an instant, the warm and cool breath came to her face.

When the full moon looked up, he saw Lin Jian, dressed in a dark yellow brocade robe and wearing a purple and gold hair crown, walking slowly.

The closer Lin Jian's eyes got to her, the more they tightened inch by inch, as if they had some kind of enmity with her. Lin Jian's eyes fell on the full moon and a lake blue dress, which became more and more cold and fierce.
