Chapter Twenty-Seven: Entering the Palace

When I returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was almost dawn. simply didn't sleep, and after the two of them finished freshening up, they leaned on the chair and squinted for a short rest.

This Tu Liu is also a hard-mouthed person, and he soaked it all night before he finally asked for the receipt worth 100,000 taels that the third master confessed. I thought it was so important what the receipt was, it turned out to be a receipt for the grain and grass transaction with the military department, but according to Tu Liu's confession, these grains and grass were all shoddy rotten goods.

Speaking of which, this Tu Liu is also innocent, who made him have to do anything with the rations of the border soldiers......

There was a knock on the door, and Qiu Yue immediately shouted, "Miss~ Miss, are you up?" ”

Jin Su hurriedly pushed down Bai Qi who was lying on the table, and said casually, "Come in!" ”

Qiu Yue saw that Jinsu had finished freshening up, and asked with some surprise, "Miss, why did you get up so early today!" ”

Jin Su walked to the outer room and pretended to be relaxed, "Maybe I slept too early last night!" ”

When I turned around, I just saw Bai Qi covering her mouth and snickering.

After breakfast, Jin Su went to Yunxiang Courtyard to say goodbye as usual.

However, unlike usual, today's old lady no longer looks like she loves to ignore her, but bitterly explains her words and deeds to pay attention to after entering the palace, in the final analysis, she is still worried that she will lose face to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the end, according to the old lady's request, Qiu Yue was brought into the palace and served closely.

At the door, just about to get into the carriage, Anya Sheng rushed over and stretched out his hand to drag her down. Who knew that as soon as she dodged flexibly, Anya Sheng pounced.

Fortunately, Qiu Yue, who was next to her, quickly supported Anya Sheng so that she would not crash into the carriage.

Anya Sheng turned his head and pointed at her angrily and scolded, "Do you really think you are the eldest lady?" Can you ride in my carriage too? Shameless! ”

Jin Su was not in a hurry, and said calmly, "First of all, whether you admit it or not, I was originally the eldest lady in this mansion!" Secondly, I didn't know the carriage was yours beforehand! ”

"Hmph~, I don't have the good temper of my mother, let you run rampant in the house. You listen to me, and in the future, see me, how far and how far you go! Also, as long as it's mine, even if I don't want it, it won't be your turn! Anya Sheng glared at her and said eloquently.

Jin Su smiled slightly, and did not respond, but instead ordered, "Qiu Yue, you go and ask the housekeeper to prepare another carriage." ”

"Yes", Qiu Yue took the order and trotted away.

"Shall I talk to you, are you deaf?" Anya asked commandingly.

Jinsu still didn't respond, didn't even look at her, as if she didn't exist at all, even though her scolding was "buzzing" like a mosquito.

An Yasheng, a spoiled young lady from a family, originally didn't have any scheming, but it was just a bluff. So the best way to deal with her is to ignore her and make her feel that her authority is not recognized.

An Yasheng scolded several times in a row, but Jinsu ignored it.

Sure enough, Anya was so angry that he wanted to do it again, but this time, Jinsu didn't dodge, but squeezed Anya Sheng's hand tightly and warned, "I put up with you again and again, it's not that I'm afraid of you, it's just that we have the same root and the same origin, if it really makes trouble, it will only make others see jokes and embarrass my father!" ”

An Yasheng obviously didn't expect Jinsu's hand to be so strong, and for a while, he couldn't fight it or take it back. She had never been wronged like this, struggled hard a few times, and somehow, finally hit Jinsu in the face with a "snap", at that moment, even she herself was taken aback, but soon returned to her tense appearance.

Seeing that Jinsu was beaten, Bai Qi stepped forward with an arrow, protected her behind him, and shouted angrily, "Third Miss......"

Jin Su covered her face, took Bai Qi's words aggrievedly and continued, "Third sister, no matter how angry you are, you shouldn't do it at this time, but I want to go to the palace to see the emperor?" ”

"Ouch! The two ancestors ......" The old housekeeper shouted while trotting over with Qiu Yue, even if he didn't hear the conversation between her and An Yasheng just now, he must have seen her slap in the face.

"Two young ladies, it's not mine today, it's that I haven't thought it through, whether the two of you can look at my face is just like that."

The housekeeper saw that An Yasheng couldn't please him, so he turned to Jin Su and said, "Miss, the new carriage has been prepared and is ready to go, the master is still waiting." There are so many people watching at the door, we can't let people tell jokes, can we? ”

Hmph~, if it weren't for so many people watching, would she have been slapped hard? What a joke!

"Third sister~, today I take care of the overall situation and don't care about you, if you mess around like this next time, don't blame me." Although Jin Su was beaten, his momentum was not weak at all.

An Yasheng pointed at Jinsu and wanted to scold something, but the effect she wanted had been achieved, and there was really no need to dwell on it. Turning around, he strode towards the butler's newly prepared carriage. The onlookers were also preparing to leave, walking together in twos and threes, whispering.

When I arrived at the gate of the palace, my father was already waiting.

"What's wrong with your face?" Father asked.

Jin Su subconsciously covered his face and whispered, "It's nothing, it should be fine after a while!" ”

Entering the palace gate, there is a corridor inside, and on both sides of the corridor are high city walls, and there is a guard standing on the city wall at every interval, which is majestic. It was probably because the atmosphere was tense, and neither of them said anything more.

When they arrived at the Chaohui Palace, Jin Su and Bai Qi couldn't go in anymore, so they could only wait. Officials like her are not allowed to move around the palace at will, and generally whoever they want to see and which palace they go to must first be notified by the Internal Affairs Office, and permission has been obtained, and then the Internal Affairs Office will send someone to bring them in.

She entered the palace today, although it was a summons from the emperor, but she also had to wait in the Chaohui Palace, wait for the eunuchs in the Chaohui Palace to report, and get the approval of Emperor Ji Wu before entering.

During this period, An Heqing was a little impatient, so he also went out, saying that he was going to see the situation, but he never came back.

Seeing that it was dark, the little eunuch of Chaohui Hall said that the palace gate was about to be keyed, urging them to leave the palace quickly.

The first time I entered the palace, I spent it waiting.

The little eunuch knew that this was her first time in the palace, and she was afraid that something would go wrong, so she led her all the way to Yongdao, and politely told her to go out along Yongdao.

Jin Su was talking to the little eunuch when two "acquaintances" came up to him.

"Your Highness Eight!" The little eunuch immediately knelt down and saluted.

Jin Su saluted politely and distantly, "Eighth Highness", although she also had some friendship with him, but she felt that His Royal Highness's eyes were too powerful, as if she would see through her at any time......

"Let's go!"

Yes? What's going to go? Jin Su was stunned and got up slowly, but did not move forward.

Feng Yao, who had already walked a few steps to the front, also realized that Jinsu had not followed, turned around and frowned, and said, "Aren't you the eldest lady of An Xiangguo's mansion?" An Xiangguo wants to stay in the palace tonight, so this king will take you out! ”

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness!" Jin Su said politely.

Halfway to the position, there was no one around, Feng Yao suddenly slowed down, and looked back to her with a smile, "Is this Miss Xiangfu a habit to do?" ”

"Speaking of which, thank you to His Royal Highness Eight, if you hadn't helped me fan the storm in the court, I wouldn't have returned home so smoothly, and naturally I wouldn't have been summoned today!" Jinsu said calmly.

"Yes, no matter what your intentions are, after all, you saved so many refugees in Kyoto City."

It's really rare, and it has even been appreciated by this cold-blooded highness.

Unconsciously, he had already left the palace gate, and Bai Qi summoned the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Jin Su then said goodbye to Feng Yao, "Thank you Your Highness for sending me off, and the courtiers will say goodbye!" ”

"Hmm!" Feng Yao only nodded slightly and then stepped on the horse, and before her carriage could leave, she heard his "da-da" hooves go away.
