The next day, Mu Yu got up early, and as soon as he was packed, the sedan chair fell at the door.

For fear of being recognized, it was Rongyin who followed her into the palace today.

After a night's rest, her legs were much better, and with the help of Rongyin, she slowly got on the sedan chair, and quietly came all the way to the gate of the palace, opened the sedan curtain, and saw that two black carriages were already waiting aside.

Situ Yu was dressed in a dark court dress, standing solemnly, and Lu Ling'er, who was wearing a lake-blue flower gauze skirt, leaned beside him delicately.

Probably because of the relationship that has been favored recently, Mu Yu only feels that compared with the first time they met, Lu Ling'er's delicate appearance has been concealed a little, showing a bit of flamboyance, and the brilliance hidden in the eyes is also undisguised, and the eyebrows are even more colorful.

Mu Yu got out of the carriage with difficulty with the support of Langyin, thinking that he was the last to arrive, but when he looked around, he found that Xi Ruoya had not yet arrived, so he walked straight to Situ Yu and bowed slightly.

Situ Yu glanced at her coldly, waved his hand and excused himself, and did not speak.

"Lord, why hasn't the princess arrived yet, the concubine is a little worried, it will be a mistake if she waits any longer, so it's better to send someone to take a look!" Lu Ling'er twisted her slender waist, wrapped her hands around her boss Tuyu's arms, and snorted in front of everyone.

Situ Yu glanced at her with slanted eyes, his slightly drooping eyelashes hid his emotions, and he could only hear a cold voice: "Ling'er can't make a mistake, today is a palace banquet, it's not as good as being in the house, and the rules that should be obeyed still have to be observed!" ”

"What the prince taught me is that it was Ling'er who overstepped the rules!" Lu Ling'er didn't expect Situ Yu to be so serious, but her reaction was quite fast, and she immediately accepted the pampered and coquettish style, and waited quietly beside him.

As soon as the words fell, a small red sedan chair fell in front of him, and Xi Ruoya, dressed in a rose-red palace dress, came out of the sedan chair, not to mention the appearance of Allure, just the natural dignified and elegant, which instantly compared Lu Ling'er.

She lifted her step lightly, came to Situ Yu and saluted: "Ruoya is a little unwell, she got up late, I hope the prince will forgive me!" ”

"Well, it's a little late, let's get out of here!" Situ Yu didn't have a word of concern, but reached out to hug Lu Ling'er beside her, and whispered in her ear: "Ling'er, let's be wronged today, ride with Concubine Lin, and this king will compensate you well in the evening!" As he spoke, his eyes drifted over Mu Yu's face, intentionally or unintentionally.

Although the voice was small, it was just the volume that everyone could hear, and the movements were extremely warm, which made the thin-skinned maids lower their heads one after another.

Xi Ruoya smiled lightly without changing her face, but the clenched fists in her sleeves vented the anger in her heart.

"Lord Wang, you have to count when you speak, Ling'er is waiting for you at night!"

The delicate voice gave people goosebumps, not to mention the appearance of scratching their heads.

Although the pastoral rumors stood quietly with their eyes and noses, and did not look at how they showed their affection, they couldn't help but be excited, and sighed in their hearts, King Chen, who is not close to women, is nothing more than that.

Situ Yu and Xi Ruoya shared a car and walked in front, and Lu Linger sat with Mu Yu very reluctantly.

The carriage was originally quite spacious, but because of the different auras of the two people, the space was much narrower.

"Alas! On such a hot day, Sister Lin still has to wear a veil to go out, it's really pitiful! If I were you, I wouldn't have come to join in the fun, so as not to add to the conversation for others. The corners of her slightly upturned eyes showed disdain, she didn't please her last time in "Haoqingyuan", and she always held a grudge, how could she let go of the opportunity not to ask for it back this time.

Mu Yu lazily half-opened her eyes, glanced at her arrogant and smug appearance, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked: "Concubine Lu is very right, I don't want to do this, why don't you bother to talk to the prince, let him allow me to go back to the garden to stay!"

"You ......" Lu Ling'er didn't expect her to answer like this, and said after a slight pause: "Do you think the prince is willing, bringing you out will only make his face humiliated, if it weren't for the Sang Yue envoy who sent the princess to kiss today, the saint issued an edict, how could the prince take you with him!" ”

The unwillingness to be compared to Xi Ruoya just now, as if she wanted to double it back from Lin Wanyan, Lu Ling'er was extremely humiliating in her words.

For her provocation, Mu Yu behaved indifferently and was not angry at all.

"Princess Sangyue came to kiss? Isn't it "Princess Shuohua" who kissed her, why did Sang Yue send the princess here again? "No wonder Situ Yu and Xi Ruoya are dressed so formally today. But why I haven't heard of such a big thing?

Hearing her question, Lu Ling'er sneered: "It seems that Concubine Lin is really recuperating, and she doesn't even know such a big thing."

In order to express the sincerity of friendship with our dynasty, he took the initiative to send the 'Princess Hele' to the peace of the two countries, in order to repair the good relationship between the two countries for a hundred years, and the team arrived in the capital yesterday, and today's palace banquet is set up for them to receive the wind and wash the dust. After speaking, she glanced at Mu Yu with disdain, "Wait a while, you have to cover this face tightly, or the prince's face will be lost!" ”

Mu Yu smiled with his eyebrows: "Thank you Concubine Lu for reminding you, Wanyan will definitely be careful!" ”

Seeing that she was not angry but laughed, Lu Ling'er was angry and couldn't give it up, and felt very boring, so she simply thought she was a broken jar, and she didn't bother to talk anymore.

The carriage went all the way to the gate of the palace, because it was still early before the luncheon, the palace people changed into a soft sedan chair and carried several family members to the Baihua Hall to wait.

Situ Yu accepted the invitation of the prince and went to the Taixuan Hall to receive the envoys.

The Hundred Flowers Hall is a garden dedicated to the rest of the ladies who enter the palace, with pavilions and water pavilions, flowers bloom in all seasons, and the scenery is pleasant.

When the pastoral rumor entered the garden, there were already many female relatives gathered everywhere. Xi Ruoya and Lu Ling'er disappeared without knowing when.

Mu Yu didn't know anyone, and because of the inconvenience of her legs and feet, she asked Langyin to help her rest on the stone bench at the rockery by the lake.

This place is relatively remote and quiet, and a weeping willow with dense foliage next to the rockery hides their figure in the greenery.

"Rongyin, do you know about this 'Princess Hele' and relatives?" Mu Yu used his hand to support the stone wall stretched out by the rockery, so that his legs could be stretched as far as possible.

"You know, what's wrong?" Rang Yin rubbed her legs for her and looked up curiously.

"Know? Then why didn't you tell me? ”

"Yes, I remember that Sister Shuang'er told you the news a few days ago, and you didn't react at the time, and I'm still wondering why you're not interested!" Rang Yin stared at her with wide eyes.

"Is there one? Why don't I remember at all? The pastor blinked, and I really couldn't remember such a thing.

Lang Yin looked at her somewhat confused expression, and couldn't help but bow her head and sneer: You have always looked like you have lost your soul recently, and I am afraid that there are more than one thing that you can't remember.

Mu Yu was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard footsteps approaching.

A shrill voice came: "Sister is really not worried at all, in case the 'Princess Hele' chooses the prince, your position as the princess will be half of her!"

Mu Yu and Lang Yin glanced at each other, completely hidden themselves behind the rockery, and breathed, they had no intention of listening to other people's conversations, but the position was too hidden, if people found out, I am afraid that it would be unclear.

The person who spoke walked very slowly, and the person walking in front sighed slightly: "What is there to worry about, if the prince has her in his heart, what is the meaning of this princess position for me alone, if the prince does not have her in his heart, even if the princess position is given to her, what loss will there be to me, it is just a false name, and what is it compared to the prince's heart!" ”

The voice...... Mu Yu was shocked and raised his eyes to look at Rongyin.

Langyin took advantage of the gap in the rockery to look out, turned his head and nodded at the herdsman, and said with his mouth: "Princess Yi!" "The king of Beiling left for Beiling the day before yesterday, and he appeared in the palace at this time, and was also called the princess, except for Xi Ruoya, who was Gong Yuhe.

Yes, she is the only one who can see everything so thoroughly and be so calm. Instinctively, I wanted to go out and say hello to her, but thinking of my current situation, I immediately dismissed this idea.

"My sister said this lightly, but she relied on the prince to favor you, which is like my sister and me, I can only look forward to it, if there is more and more princess, I am afraid that the prince will forget who I am." There was some grief in the words of the shrill voice.

"Why should my sister be arrogant, just say this in front of my sister, if you let others listen to it, you still think that our prince favors one over the other and treats you badly!" The sound has faded away.

The tone is not harsh, but it implies majesty, but it really has the momentum of the mistress of the palace, it seems that Yuhe is doing well in the Yiwang Mansion. Mu Yu looked in the direction they had left and cast a relieved look.

When they completely disappeared from sight, Mu Yu asked Lane Yin again: "Hasn't it been decided who the 'Princess Hele' wants to marry?" ”

"No! This 'Princess Hele' is the only daughter of Queen Sangyue, pampered since childhood, this time to come to kiss, the lord of Sangyue is willing to ask the emperor to allow her to choose her husband by herself, for a period of one month. After the candidate was decided, the team of relatives married the country's 'Princess Shuohua' and returned to Sangyue to complete the marriage. ”

"I see!" Mu Yu knew in his heart, it seems that tonight's banquet has another meaning!

At this time, someone passed by again, and a slightly immature voice said: "Hey, have you heard, the envoy who sent the 'Princess Hele' here is very handsome!" ”

"Yes, yes, I heard that he is still the newly promoted general of Sang Yue Kingdom!"

"Hey, I said, that's the general of Sang Yue Kingdom, is it possible that you want to get married......"

Then there was a burst of giggling laughter, which faded away.

Unexpectedly, this place is quite suitable for eavesdropping, and the pastoral and the sound look at each other helplessly and laugh.

He sat still for a while, and no one passed by.

It wasn't until Lang Yin saw that there were palace people in front of him who came to lead the crowd in twos and threes in the same direction, so he quickly helped Mu Yu to get up: "It is estimated that the hour is almost up, let's hurry up and keep up, or we won't be able to find the place for a while." "This palace is not familiar at all, it is a small matter to get lost, and it is a big matter to miss the time and lose the courtesy.

Mu Yu also knows the truth, and walks outside the garden with the support of Rongyin, but his legs and feet are inconvenient, and this place is relatively remote, although he has been working hard to walk, but he can only watch the people around him disappear into sight one by one.

"Didn't the prince arrange a sedan chair to pick him up, why didn't he see anyone?" Seeing that everyone was almost gone, Langyin became anxious.

"Maybe we stayed too hidden, they didn't find it!" Mu Yu regretted it a little, in order to avoid the unwarranted ridicule of those people, she specially chose such a remote place.

"Alas! Forget it, if it's too late, we won't go! "Makes a sound with a pure heart, and has been with Mu Yu for a long time, I think she treats people very kindly, but he treats her as a new master, and when he sees that she is struggling, he feels sorry for her at this time.

"No! Since it is the emperor's will, if I don't go to the prince, he is afraid that he will not be able to escape his responsibility! Because he walked too quickly, he pulled the muscles and bones that were healing, and the pain came in bursts, and Mu Yu endured it and moved his legs desperately.

"Otherwise, let me carry you on my back!"

"No! That would be even more rude! ”

"What then? Don't say we can't even find a place, even if you go like this, I'm afraid these legs should be wasted! "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, I'm really anxious.

Mu Yu didn't care about it, he still stubbornly dragged his legs forward.

The master and the servant were in a hurry, when suddenly a figure stood in front of them.
