So Song Anle naturally chose to be on Gao Yuanyi's side, but she didn't expect Gao Yuanyi to look at her happily, she also smiled a little embarrassedly, and then walked beside him and knelt down.

The palace people successively served some dishes, fruits and snacks, and of course, fine wine, and the musicians played melodious music, as if to bring them all into the fairyland to enjoy leisure.

Just when Song Anle didn't know why Song Xiaojing didn't show up for a long time, and Gao Yuankang didn't say a word, Song Xiaojing walked in from the side hall, because she only paid attention to a few princes, so she ignored the others.

Song Xiaojing's appearance seemed to be in a hurry, Xu was in a hurry, she walked into the store, bowed her head and said, "The concubine is in a hurry." ”

Because it was Gao Yuankang who was in the upper seat, and he announced her to come, Song Xiaojing just bowed to Gao Yuanshang and Gao Yuanyi respectively, and turned to Gao Yuanyi's side, she happened to see Song Anle beside her, she almost rushed over excitedly, but realized the situation in time.

After a long absence, Song Anle was of course excited, but she was more concerned about her identity and occasion at this time, at least she couldn't leave a handle for others.

Gao Yuankang said in a timely manner: "It's all my own family, and I don't need to be polite to my concubine, and I will give the throne to the king." ”

Song Xiaojing looked at Song Anle, with a reluctant expression, and in Song Anle's indifferent smile, she still returned to Gao Yuankang's side and sat down.

Gao Yuankang held Song Xiaojing in his arms, and said: "I heard that this Zhou Jiali has good piano skills, so it is better to play it first and enjoy it." ”

Zhou Baihe got up excitedly and said: "The maid is fortunate to perform for several princes, it is really the honor of the maid to be born in three lives, and the maidservant girl is here to be ugly." ”

Zhou Baihe really couldn't hide the joy on her face, from her smile that couldn't close her mouth, it could be imagined that the excitement in her heart was just too obvious or exaggerated joy, and it was inevitable that people would not be very welcome.

After Zhou Baihe retreated with an excited mood, a pleasant sound of the piano came, which made people immersed in the beauty of the reverberation, and with the softness of the piano sound, they also entered a relaxed mood.

Song Anle and Song Xiaojing looked at each other in pairs, but they couldn't say a word, so they were both relatively dull, but the three Gao Yuanshang brothers talked very harmoniously.

Gao Yuankang suddenly said to Song Anle: "Look at the carelessness of this king, he actually forgot Song Jiali, Song Jiali is not strange." ”

Song Anle didn't know what Gao Yuankang was going to talk about, so she bowed her head and said: "King Lin's words are serious, and the maid really doesn't dare to accept it." ”

"Song Jiali is the eldest sister of Concubine Jingbian, it seems that your eldest sister has not congratulated Concubine Jingbian on her canonization, should Song Jiali also take this opportunity to send congratulations?"

"Of course, congratulations are necessary, but the maid has not been good enough to get the right opportunity, today can be appreciated by the king here, of course the maid can't miss this opportunity, but the maid is not strong enough to drink, and I hope to replace the wine with tea."

Gao Yuanshang preemptively said: "Since it is sincere congratulations, how can you lose sincerity because of a glass of wine." ”

Song Xiaojing knew that Song Anle never drank alcohol, so she got up and said: "The eldest prince doesn't know, the eldest sister has been weak since she was a child, and she can't get drunk with alcohol, besides, they are all her own sisters, and I hope that the eldest prince and King Lin can be exempted from the gift of congratulations, and the concubine is here to receive the eldest sister's good intentions." ”

Gao Yuanshang said coldly: "Concubine Jing's words are wrong, congratulations and gifts are a matter of two people, although Concubine Jing is sympathetic to Song Jiali's body unchanged, can she ignore the king's face?" ”

Song Anle naturally didn't want to embarrass Song Xiaojing, so she quickly got up and said: "The eldest prince is reasonable, the maid here thanks Concubine Jing for her compassion, but everything pays attention to etiquette, even if the maid is not strong enough to drink, compared to congratulating the concubine of King Jing on her side, the maid would rather hurt her body than lose her friendship." Song Anle casually picked up a glass of wine on the table, walked to the hall, and said with a smile: "So the maid takes this opportunity to pay tribute to the king and Concubine Jing, and congratulate King Lin and his beautiful woman for a hundred years of good harmony and everlasting years." ”

Song Anle fell, then raised his glass and knelt in the hall, this is the number of etiquette in the Northern Dynasty, all the people who send congratulations, must bow respectfully to the people who are congratulated, not to mention Gao Yuankang, a noble prince.

Song Xiaojing's face was uneasy, but the difference in identity lies in this, she can't change anything, so she can't accept everything.

Gao Yuankang held the wine glass, and he didn't mean to slack off at all, but seeing that Song Xiaojing didn't make a move, he said again: "Since Song Jiali's sincerity can be seen, then don't let Song Jiali wait for a long time." Song Xiaojing came to her senses from her melancholy mood, she hurriedly held the wine glass, and when Gao Yuankang raised his head to drink, she also took a shallow sip of wine, but Song Anle raised his head, as if he had drunk a glass of wine, but Song Anle unexpectedly found that the wine in the wine glass did not have the slightest smell of wine, she subconsciously glanced at Gao Yuanyi, presumably Gao Yuanyi took advantage of the unpreparedness of the person to change the wine in the wine glass.

Song Xiaojing put down the wine glass and hurriedly said, "Eldest sister, please get up quickly." Because of ignoring Gao Yuankang, Song Xiaojing glanced at Gao Yuankang in shock, as if he was miscognizing, and although Gao Yuankang was cold, he still said plainly: "Since Concubine Ai and Song Jiali haven't seen each other for a long time, let's step back and talk about my thoughts first." ”

Song Xiaojing happily and excitedly glanced at each other, the sisters' expressions were full of obvious joy and happiness, Song Xiaojing hurriedly walked to the hall, and said with a bow: "Thank you for your love, and the concubine will retire." ”

The two sisters looked at each other again, and then bowed their heads together, presumably the remaining three brothers would feel envious and gratified by their deep sisterhood.

Song Xiaojing pulled Song Anle to her small courtyard, which was well enclosed all around, but the space was extremely spacious and the light was particularly bright, which was a good place to bask in the sun in winter.

"Anle, come and sit." Song Xiaojing pulled Song Anle to sit down at an open-air stone table in the courtyard, and there were all kinds of refreshments and exquisite snacks on the table.

"Xiaojing, is this where you live?" Song Anle looked at everything here, although the Song Mansion where she lived had always lived a simple life, she was also a person who had seen the world, but she didn't expect everything in the palace to be so luxurious and expensive.

Song Xiaojing was too excited and happy, so she said happily: "This Jingyuan Palace is my residence, and King Linwang specially gave me this place, saying that it is convenient to come out and bask in the sun in winter." ”

Judging from Song Xiaojing's expression and attitude, it is not difficult to see that she seems to be doing well, if Gao Yuankang treats her badly, how can she behave so really and naturally, Song Anle also said with a smile: "It seems that King Lin is very good to you, you have to serve well, you can't be childish and make people laugh." ”

"Don't worry, I'm very obedient, and the other concubines of King Lin also treat me like sisters, so you don't have to worry about me."

Song Anle smiled, but the depth in the palace was the darkness that they could see, so she said earnestly: "Having said that, you also have to be more careful, otherwise how to say that people's hearts are separated from their stomachs." ”

"I see, I'll be careful." When Song Xiaojing faced it alone, she would always have her own way, so she said eagerly: "By the way, Anle, what about you?" Have you been okay all the time? Have you suffered any grievances? ”

Song Anle saw her worried and anxious look, and her heart was warmly relieved, but everything was speechless, so she said lightly: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry." ”

Song Xiaojing looked at her body, took her hand again, and said with a sad face: "Seeing that you are a lot emaciated and haggard, you must have suffered a lot." ”

Song Anle said disapprerovitically: "What are you afraid of, wouldn't it be good to get through it." ”

"So do you have any other plans in the future besides waiting for the election time?" What Song Xiaojing wants to know most is whether Song Anle's intentions will change during this time.

Song Anle didn't have any plans before everything was autonomous, and she was on the passive side, so she just said with a slight gloom: "Let's wait until the election is over, if I can, I want to leave here." ”

Song Xiaojing hesitated for a moment before saying tentatively: "Can't you still let go of the grievances of the previous generation and choose the future you want?" ”

Based on Song Xiaojing's observation of Song Anle and Gao Yuanshang, her intuition told her that the relationship between them was by no means as simple as an ordinary relationship, otherwise how could they give up their lives and desperately try to save each other, but Song Anle has always been hindered by the association of the previous generation and has to hide his inner emotions in the bottom of his heart.

"Even if I don't have the connection of the previous generation, I won't choose to bind myself to this palace wall." The moment Song Anle said it, she realized that she had lost her words, so she said lightly: "Don't be burdened, I'm just out of my personal psychology, everyone's pursuit is different, so as long as it is our own choice, we must firmly believe that it is a better future." ”

Song Xiaojing also knew that Song Anle was just the basic consciousness from her heart, but she never regretted her choice, no matter what happened in the future, she chose a better life, and naturally she had to be ready to meet the tempering in life, so she said with confidence: "I will, I will try my best, and I will never live up to the kindness of the Song family to me for so many years." ”

Song Anle smiled indifferently, "It's all a family, what kind of kindness do you have, as long as the family is safe, don't ask to live under the same roof, but ask to come as usual." ”

Song Xiaojing nodded happily, the smile on her face was as bright as the bright sun, but Song Anle couldn't raise such an emotion, because she had always remembered Bai Huaqing's whereabouts in her heart.
