A little later, Apple also brought in the news that Yuan Dayong had heard from the outer courtyard.

The ten ladies from the capital have been arranged in an annex next to the Yanbei Palace, and the Yanbei Mansion has also sent a lot of guards to protect them, and two of the ladies fell ill when they were on the boat, but they were unwilling to delay the trip, so they endured and insisted on hurrying, and they did not tell people that they were sick after entering Yunyang City, and they were only discovered after entering Yunyang City, but they were much stronger than the civil officials who were sick on the road.

Yanbei Wangfu has sent a doctor to see these two ladies, it is said that it is only the first time to take a boat, caused by unaccustomed to it, plus some water and soil adaptation, a few days of recuperation can be cured.

This time, there were three court officials who came with these ten ladies, one of whom was Pei Zhiyan. The imperial court received a letter from the Liao people a while ago, intending to make peace with the Great Zhou and reopen the border trade between the two countries.

Pei Zhiyan didn't go to Yunyang City today, it was indeed for the colleague who fell ill on the way, I heard that they are staying in Cangzhou now.

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but be a little surprised when he listened: "These are all Yuan Dayong who heard about them?" ”

Originally, she just wanted to find out about Mr. Pei, but she didn't want Yuan Dayong to inquire about the news in such detail. It's just a matter of things related to those ladies, and even those court officials have heard about the intentions of those court officials this time. The relationship between the Great Liao, Yanbei and the imperial court is not simple, and it is difficult for ordinary people to know that the Liao people want to make peace and reopen the border trade.

Apple nodded: "Hmm." ”

"Did he mention where he heard about it?" Ren Yaochi said thoughtfully.

Apple continued to nod: "Lord Zhu took him to find someone from Yanbei Palace." ”

Ren Yaoqi: "......"

Seeing that Ren Yaochi didn't speak, Apple blinked: "Miss, is there something wrong?" ”

Ren Yaochi shook his head: "Tell him not to go to Yanbei Wangfu to inquire about the news in the future." She hadn't married into Yanbei Wangfu yet, so she took advantage of the palace's connections. If you let people know the truth, you have to become a handle. Zhu Ruomei has a deep relationship with her, which can be excluded, and other people can't use it casually.

Apple nodded, thought for a while, and said: "Lord Zhu said that Xiao Ergongzi explained, if you have any needs, you can send someone to Yanbei Palace, the person Yuan Dayong is looking for is Xiao Ergongzi's person, and he will not chew the root of his tongue." ”

Ren Yaoqi was slightly stunned when she heard this, and felt a trace of warmth in her heart, but she still said: "That's not good, there are a lot of people staring at us in Yunyang City now." Let a sleeping dog lie. "After all, there are still princes and princesses in Yanbei Palace, even if Xiao Jingxi doesn't care about the people she uses in his hands, she has to worry about whether the king and princess of Yanbei will care. If there is really something important, she will go directly to Xiao Jinglin.

Apple nodded again: "Zhilu said Miss, I will tell him." ”

When Apple was about to retreat, Ren Yaochi suddenly remembered something and asked, "What do you know about the surnames of the two girls who are sick?" ”

"One is surnamed Yan, and the other is surnamed Zhao."

Ren Yaoqi let Apple step down.

From this day on, Ren Yaoqi still kept people paying attention to Pei Zhiyan's whereabouts. However, there was no news of Pei Zhiyan in the next few days, and people seemed to stay in Cangzhou.

And the ten ladies from Kyoto also rested in the annex of Yanbei Wangfu for a few days, they came from afar, and most of them were unfamiliar with Yanbei. There is no need to go out to meet friends, people outside have to pass through Yanbei Wangfu if they want to see them, so when these ladies first came to Yanbei, they were lively outside for a few days, but there was no movement later. Yanbei Wangfu is also afraid that something will go wrong with these ladies from Kyoto. So I'm glad to see them quiet.

Ren Yaoqi didn't have too much curiosity about these girls who came from afar, and it couldn't be better if there was no wind or waves.

It's May, and the fifth day of the fifth month of May is the Duanyang Festival. This year's Duanyang Festival will still have dragon boat races in Yunyang City, different from previous years, Ren Shimin also received an official invitation from the Su family this year, in the past, they came to Yanbei to watch the dragon boat race as the identity of the Ren family in Baihe Town, but this year is different.

Ren Yaoqi heard that these ladies from the capital will appear on the day of the Duanyang Festival dragon boat race, and this year there is a dragon boat that still represents the southern court, and it must be lively again.

On the second day of the fifth month, the Yanbei palace sent a carriage over, saying that the princess had specially sent someone to pick her up from the palace.

Ren Yaoqi was a little strange, in the past, she went to Yanbei Wangfu to pick her up by Xiao Jinglin, but today the princess picked her up for I don't know what Lu Dao was for.

Thinking so, Ren Yaochi didn't dare to delay more, so he asked the maids to wait for the dressing, changed his clothes, and took a few maids out of the second gate to take the carriage of Yanbei Wangfu.

Seeing the eight maids and eight grandmothers who came to pick her up, as well as a team of more than a dozen guards, Ren Yaoqi believed that it was not Xiao Jinglin who let her enter the mansion today, but the princess. When Xiao Jinglin came to pick her up, she never talked about pomp and circumstance, and she didn't let too many people follow, she either came by herself or let her maid come red. And those maids and grandmothers who came to take over from Yao Qi today, Ren Yao Qi knew one or two familiar ones, and they were waiting in front of the princess.

The maid and grandmother of Yanbei Wangfu were extremely respectful when they saw Ren Yaoqi, and they did not have the slightest domineering appearance, and they helped her into the carriage with great care.

The group went to the Yanbei Palace, and after the carriage entered the palace, it didn't even stop at the place where the outsiders got off the carriage, but went a little longer. Then these dozen or so maids led Ren Yaoqi to the Jiuyang Hall where the princess lived.

When Ren Yao entered the Jiuyang Palace, the princess was sitting on the main seat, and Xiao Jinglin was sitting next to the princess. However, Ren Yaoqi also noticed that in addition to the princess and Xiao Jinglin, there were also two girls present, who were sitting in the guest seats below and talking to the princess.

Hearing the sound of someone entering the temple, several people looked at it at the same time.

As soon as the princess saw her, she said angrily: "I haven't seen you for a few days, and I don't know if Lu Dao took the initiative to come and talk to me." ”

Xiao Jinglin looked at Ren Yaoqi, a smile appeared on her face, and she even excused her in front of the princess: "Yaoqi has also been very busy recently. Last time, I heard from my husband that she was involved in completing several remnants, and I may not have seen her for a long time. ”

Ren Yaochi blinked, then stepped forward to salute the princess, and said with a smile when she got up: "I know that I am wrong, don't annoy me, princess." ”

As they spoke, Ren Yaochi noticed that the eyes of the other two strange girls were fixed on her faces.

One of the girls looked at her and said with a smile, "This is Miss Ren, right?" Really...... It's better to be famous than to meet. ”

The girl who spoke was fourteen or fifteen years old, with a pair of willow leaf curved eyebrows, slender phoenix eyes, and a small nose when she smiled. Cherry Mouth is a beauty who looks very much in line with most people's aesthetics.

Another girl, the same age as the previous one, although slightly inferior in appearance, but also very symbolic, especially when frowning slightly, the touch of sorrow between the eyebrows made her look very cute, a standard Kyoto beauty.

The princess smiled: "The one on the left is Miss Yan, and the one on the right is Miss Zhao." All from Kyoto. "Miss Yan is the one who spoke out before, and Miss Zhao is the one who is slightly inferior.

Ren Yaochi smiled and nodded, and stepped forward to greet them.

Miss Yan's gaze never took off Ren Yaoqi's face, and she said with a meaningful smile: "I heard of you when I was in Kyoto. ”

Miss Zhao said softly: "Ning Shuang, you might as well let Miss Ren sit down first." Miss Ren, come and sit with me. ”

At this time, the princess spoke: "Yao Qi come and sit with me, Jing Lin, you go and sit with Miss Zhao." ”

When Xiao Jinglin heard this, she got up and gave up the seat next to the princess without saying a word.

Miss Yan saw the slight change on her face, but quickly smiled again. I took a sip of the tea I had in hand. Miss Zhao didn't say anything.

Ren Yaochi did not refuse, and sat down next to the princess as usual, making outsiders look as natural as they did on weekdays.

The princess waited for Ren Yaoqi to sit down and explained to her: "Miss Yan and Miss Zhao are our guests in Yanbei. They are the same age as you, so they must be able to talk together, and you and Jing Lin will entertain them well for me in the future. ”

Ren Yaoqi obediently replied "yes"

The princess sat in the palace for a while, talking to them for a while, until Mama Xin came over and seemed to have something to deal with with the princess, and the princess said to Ren Yaoqi: "You and Jing Lin accompany Miss Yan and Miss Zhao to play, the two of them have not long recovered from their illness, let the people below serve more carefully." ”

Ren Yaochi responded again, and then several people said goodbye to the princess and went out of the Jiuyang Hall together.

Yan Ningshuang and Miss Zhao together, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin together, the four of them walked side by side, and no one spoke for a while.

Xiao Jinglin never took the initiative to speak in front of outsiders, Miss Zhao seemed to be a person who didn't like to talk, Yan Ningshuang didn't know if Lu Dao didn't say anything, or Ren Yaochi asked: "Do you want to go to the garden or go to Jinglin's Showa Hall to sit?" ”

Zhao Yingqiu smiled slightly: "It's okay." ”

Yan Ningshuang glanced at Miss Zhao, and also smiled: "It's better to walk around, it's the first time we've come to Yanbei Palace." Yingqiu, after you go back, you can also talk to Sister Ying'e, although she is the princess of Yanbei Palace, she has never been to Yanbei. ”

Ren Yaochi couldn't help but glance at Miss Zhao, listening to Yan Ningshuang's words, it seemed that this Zhao Yingqiu had something to do with the princess.

Zhao Yingqiu looked at the previous Yaoqi period and explained with a smile: "The princess Zhao Ying'e is my cousin, and my father and Ying'e's sister's father are brothers-in-law. ”

Ren Yaoqi suddenly understood.

The princess Zhao Ying'e is the daughter of Princess Chang'an and Zhao Cheng, Marquis of Beichang, Zhao Cheng is the eldest son of the old Beichang Marquis, and inherited the title after the death of the old Beichang Marquis, the second son of the old Beichang Marquis is a shadow official, and Zhao Yingqiu's father should be the second son of the old Beichang Marquis.

No wonder there are a total of ten ladies who came to Yanbei, but today the princess summoned the two of them alone. Yan Ningshuang said that after all, the girl of the Queen Mother's mother's family, I didn't expect this Miss Zhao to be regarded as the in-law of Yanbei Palace.

Xiao Jinglin still looks like she is silent and doesn't like to deal with people today, Ren Yaoqi can only take the initiative to greet them: "How is the princess's health?" ”

It was Yan Ningshuang who answered her: "I entered the palace once before I came, Sister Ying'e...... It looks much better, but it's always worse than before. ”

Zhao Yingqiu smiled bitterly: "She has a deep relationship with the prince, but the prince is ...... If it weren't for her sister being pregnant, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold on. ”

The atmosphere was a little sad for a while, and Zhao Yingqiu looked sad and melancholy.

Ren Yaoqi was planning to take Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu to the garden for a walk. Look at the flowers and plants, I don't want to meet them, but a few people are coming.

"County lord, a few young ladies, the old princess is invited." The man came up to them and spoke.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiao Jinglin.

Xiao Jinglin said: "Didn't the old princess say that she was unwell before? ”

Came to the human: "After taking the medicine, the old princess is already better, I heard that there are two young ladies from the capital in the house, and the old princess asked the slave maid to invite the two young ladies to sit in the Shou'an Palace." ”

Xiao Jinglin paused, and could only say: "I'll take them to Shou'an Palace to see the old princess, and you go back to talk to my mother during the Yao period." Xiao Jinglin was afraid that Ren Yaoqi would be angry in front of the old princess. He thought of sending her to the princess.

The person who came said: "The slave and maid sent someone to report to the princess, the county lord, Miss Ren, the two young ladies and the slave maid together." ”

Ren Yaochi gave Xiao Jinglin a look, signaling that it was okay, and Xiao Jinglin could only give up.

In this way, several people went to the old princess's Shou'an Palace together.

The old princess has not been very happy since something happened in Ningxia, especially after her granddaughter Wu Yiyu got married, Xiao Wei wanted to see her daughter several times but didn't see her. However, the Zeng family's father and son's current power in Ningxia is already evenly matched with the Wu family, maybe the Wu family is a little weaker, and Xiao Wei has no way to take them.

Xiao Wei once wanted to ask the old princess to let the Yanbei Mansion come forward to mediate, but Xiao Wei and the Zeng family had not informed the Yanbei Palace. The Yanbei Wangfu was only symbolically persuaded, and they were left to make trouble after the last trouble.

Later, Xiao Wei also figured it out, and the Yanbei Wangfu was afraid that she and the Zeng family would not get along, so that they could take advantage of the fishermen. After figuring it out, she didn't dare to make too much trouble.

Where can the old princess be happy when she sees her daughter and granddaughter suffering? But what about her? King Yanbei didn't come out of her belly, and no one in Yanbei Wangfu wanted to listen to her, her maiden family was far away in the capital. But now that the Xianwang Mansion is rising, the Yanbei Wangfu has the intention of forming an alliance with the Xianwang against the imperial court, and the old princess has no support.

Therefore, the old princess was so angry that she fell ill, but she grinded her temper to the ground. So when Xiao Jingxi and Ren Yao were married, she didn't have the strength to come out and make a small mess to block people.

When they entered the palace, the old princess was still full of momentum when she sat on the top, but Ren Yaochi felt that the old princess's momentum was like being propped up with a gorgeous hair crown and clothes, and she was a little less confident than before.

Several people stepped forward to greet her.

The old princess raised her hand to let them get up, her gaze swept over Ren Yaoqi, and then stopped at Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu, and then a smile appeared on her face: "Let me guess, the one on the left is the girl of the Yan family, and the one on the right is the girl of the Zhao family." ”

Yan Ningshuang raised her sleeves and covered her mouth and smiled: "How did the old princess guess it?" ”

Zhao Yingqiu also smiled: "The old princess's eyesight is really good. ”

"I saw the Queen Mother when I was young, and the girl of the Yan family was five or six points similar to the Queen Mother back then. The rest is the girl of the Zhao family. "The Queen Mother spoke to them quite kindly, but she didn't pay much attention to Xiao Jinglin and Ren Yaoqi, although she didn't deliberately show them their faces, but they could be detected by comparing the two compartments.

After that, Empress Dowager Yan kept talking to Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu, asking them about the capital. The old princess has been married to Yanbei for decades, and she still misses her hometown, so the three of them chatted very topically.

Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin sat on the side and drank tea, and they couldn't interject.

However, Ren Yaochi felt that it was better to be cold than difficult, and today the old princess at least did not rectify her in front of Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu, she should actually be content.

After finally sitting on the side and listening to the old princess, the princess finally sent someone over and invited them to dinner.

The old princess said: "I have a good chat with these two girls, you go back and tell the princess that I will leave them to eat in Shou'an Palace." ”

The maid sent by the princess couldn't help but glance at Xiao Jinglin.

The old princess noticed it and immediately sneered: "What? I can't keep a guest? ”

Xiao Jinglin waved her hand to let the maid go down, and then said to the old princess: "Naturally, you have the final say." ”

The old princess glanced at her, then at Ren Yaoqi, her heart was unhappy, and she said a little unhappily: "Yan Yatou and Zhao Yatou stay." Go and dine with the princess. ”

Xiao Jinglin stood up and pulled Ren Yaoqi to salute: "Yes, grandmother." "The posture is very submissive.

"I'll have someone come and pick you up after dinner." Xiao Jinglin nodded to Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu again.

Yan Ningshuang looked at them, then at the old princess, and smiled slightly.

Ren Yaoqi also nodded at them with a smile, and then walked out of the Shou'an Hall with Xiao Jinglin.

The two went back to the Jiuyang Palace, and the princess didn't say anything when she saw the two of them coming back, and the three of them sat down together for dinner.

After finishing the meal, the princess really sent someone to pick up Yan and Zhao and the others back.

After that, Yan Zhao and the others had to say goodbye and return to the annex. Ren Yaochi originally wanted to leave together, but was stopped by the princess. After Yan and Zhao left, the princess asked Mama Xin to bring Leshan and Leshui up.

"I asked Mama Xin to bring these two maids personally, so let's go back with you today." There are a lot of people in Yunyang City these days, and there are many things, and it will be the Duanyang Festival in a few days, so it will be more convenient for you to have a few more people around you. ”

Leshan and Leshui were wearing the clothes of the palace maids at this time, and they looked very energetic.

Ren Yaoqi didn't expect Xiao Jingxi to put people in front of the princess to be trained, and his face suddenly turned a little red.

The princess seemed to understand what she was thinking. patted her hand: "The rules are for outsiders, and the family is naturally how convenient it is." ”

When Ren Yaochi heard this, he was very grateful to the princess.

So, when I went back. Ren Yaoqi has two more maids around him, Leshan and Leshui.

The two sisters, Leshan and Leshui, are twins, and it is difficult to see the difference between the two from the appearance alone, but Ren Yaoqi was familiar with them when the two sisters were still in the palace. Zhilu Dao Leshui's temperament is stable, Leshan's temperament is lively, and the body language and subtle expressions of the two are also slightly different. Ren Yaoqi is a clear-eyed and attentive person, every time he says a few words to them, he can still recognize them quickly if he observes them carefully.

After coming out of the Jiuyang Palace, Ren Yaoqi asked Leshan and Leshui a few words as he walked.

Xiao Jinglin, who was walking next to Ren Yaoqi, suddenly said, "Can you tell who they are?" ”

Ren Yaoqi stopped when he heard this, looked back at the two maids, thought about it, and according to the previous judgment method, he pointed to the more stable one on the right and said, "This is Leshui." ”

The two maids glanced at each other, and then the maid who had just been identified as Leshui laughed out loud, blinked and said, "Miss, the slave maid is Leshan." ”

Ren Yaoqi looked at Leshan carefully for a moment, and found that Leshan's familiar expressions were back, and there was still the shadow of Leshui there, so he couldn't help but smile.

Le Shui was on the side and then breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and said in a brisk tone: "It's good that Miss didn't recognize it, otherwise we wouldn't be able to leave Yanbei Palace." "The person who taught them said that they must deceive those close to them in order to become teachers.

Ren Yaoqi: "......"

Why did she see two Leshan? Where did Leshui go?

Xiao Jinglin smiled quietly on the side, thinking that she had also been deceived by Hongying and Nanxing.

Xiao Jinglin still sent Ren Yaoqi into the carriage before going back, the carriage slowly drove out of the Yanbei Palace, and when it arrived at the outer hall, Ren Yaoqi glanced out through the windblown curtain, and then couldn't help but be stunned.

She lifted the curtain a bit and glanced a little farther away.

Yan Ningshuang, who had already left before, didn't know why Lu Dao hadn't left yet, and was standing in a small pavilion in the outer hall of the palace and talking, and standing opposite her was Xiao Jingxi. Xiao Jingxi should have just come back from outside, and the cloak on his body has not been taken off.

Ren Yaoqi's hand paused, and she lowered the curtain before Xiao Jingxi turned her head.

Several maids glanced at each other, and then lowered their heads silently.

Apple was silent for a moment, then moved over and poured a cup of tea for Ren Yaoqi, and said a little awkwardly: "Miss, drink a cup of tea to warm up." ”

Ren Yaoqi took it, lowered his head and took a sip, and looked up to see a few maids still looking at him, and couldn't help but be a little funny: "What are you looking at me for?" ”

Leshan and Leshui glanced at each other, and Leshan said, "Miss, don't be angry, maybe it's not what you see." ”
