Chapter 12: Greetings
"Madam, the prince asked you to change your clothes, and the carriage is already waiting outside." Ah Lan blessed Ning Liuying and said respectfully.
Ning Liuying put down the lipstick in her hand and looked at Ah Lan puzzled, "Where are you going?" ”
Recently, her complexion is not very good, even in the bronze mirror can be seen one or two, she originally did not like to use lipstick, in order to make her complexion look better, she can only use it at will.
Looking at Ning Liuying, who became more and more beautiful and moving after applying lipstick, Ah Lan was stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he hurriedly said: "The prince said that he was going to the palace." ”
In the palace?
Ning Liuying's heart trembled slightly, it's not that she hasn't entered the palace, it's just that it was a long time ago, since Ke Xin'er returned to the house, she has become the only person in the mansion, but if there is any good thing, it is all Ke Xin'er's.
Ke Xin'er squirmed and said that she wanted to let her sister, but what was the result? The people of the Ke family are even more distressed by this lost daughter, including her.
Ning Liuying smiled self-deprecatingly, why was she blind and didn't see that Ke Xin'er was harboring evil intentions?
"Ma'am, will you change your clothes?" Ah Lan held a red dress and stood in front of Ning Liuying with a slight bow.
Ning Liuying looked at the clothes in front of her, her lips opened slightly, "Bring me the yellow brocade dress." ”
After all, she is just a concubine in the palace, and she is only afraid of attracting people in this red shirt.
Ah Lan was stunned, and then understood in an instant, knowing the worry in Ning Liuying's heart, but he didn't tell Ning Liuying that this dress was personally selected by Yuan Chufeng.
After Ah Lan took the brocade skirt, he glanced at Ah Fu on the side, Ah Fu nodded slightly and walked out quietly.
Ning Liuying was not unaware, but she didn't care, these two people were found by Yuan Chufeng, and it is estimated that she would not have any bad intentions towards her, if Yuan Chufeng really wanted to make a move against her, there was no need to use such means at all, for a person of high power like him, he could kill her with just a finger.
"I'll draw my wife's eyebrows." Alan said.
Ning Liuying shook her head, "It's not too early, let's go out first." ”
Ning Liuying walked out of the courtyard accompanied by Ah Lan, and as soon as she walked out of the courtyard, she saw a group of people gathered in the pavilion in the distance.
Ning Liuying's gaze stayed there, and Ah Lan immediately explained: "The old lady Yaxing today summoned the girls and ladies in the mansion to enjoy the flowers. ”
It's just that she didn't inform Ning Liuying, so Ah Lan didn't take the initiative to mention this matter to Ning Liuying, because she was afraid that she would think too much, who would have thought that she would encounter it at this time.
Ning Liuying nodded, she didn't have any guilt in her heart, she had long known that the concubine didn't want to see her, and it was normal not to invite her with her today.
"Madam, are you going to say hello to the concubine?"
"Go ahead."
Nowadays, except for Ning Liuying, there are no other women in the palace who can be loved by Yuan Chufeng, so the subordinates just call them "girls" and "misses", but Ning Liuying has the honor of being a "lady".
The old lady watched Ning Liuying coming from a distance, put away the smile on her face, and the other women stopped one after another, sitting quietly aside, or eating cold fruits, or bowing their heads to taste tea, it was enough to see how much they looked down on Ning Liuying.
"I've seen the concubine." Ning Liuying saluted the old lady, and she didn't mean to sit down, and these people on the left and right would not give her a seat, and the old lady didn't arrange her place today, why should she be bored?
"I thought you had a baby in the yard, I'm afraid you won't come out easily." The old lady snorted, "Since you're here, sit down." ”
The women waiting next to her were slightly jealous in their eyes, and their eyes fell on Ning Liuying's belly as if they were nothing, and a pair of eyes wanted to pierce Ning Liuying's belly.
They haven't gotten the rain and dew from King Zhennan, but this fox is already pregnant, so how can they not be angry?
"Thank you for your concern, but I'm going to the palace today, it's inconvenient to stay for a long time, I just went out of the yard and saw the concubine, so I came over to say hello."
The old lady's face was pale, she came out of the palace, but she hadn't been back for many years, no matter how noble her identity was, she was only a concubine now, and she was far away from the palace, where is it so easy to go back? Coupled with the fact that this son did not come out of her belly, it was really difficult for her to get tough.
Now that she heard that Ning Liuying was going to enter the palace, the old lady was both jealous and angry in her heart.
"What's the big deal in the palace?"
"I don't know about the concubine." Ning Liuying shook her head, Yuan Chufeng didn't explain the situation to her, and Ah Lan didn't seem to know, she just knew that she was going to get into the carriage in a daze.
The old lady pursed her lips imperceptibly, and glared at Ning Liuying angrily, "Even so, then you can go, you have to be honest when you go to the palace, don't give me some moths." ”
Yue Zhi lowered her head deeply, her face was full of jealousy and unwillingness, according to the time of entering the mansion, she entered the mansion a year earlier than Ning Liuying, but Ning Liuying is not only pregnant now, but also can follow Yuan Chufeng into the palace in a beautiful manner, and she can only stay alone in the empty house day after day, year after year, how can she be willing?
Yuezhi is not the only one who has this kind of thought.
Most of the girls in this mansion were sent by those officials who wanted to have a relationship with Yuan Chufeng, and a few were recruited by the old lady herself, but without exception, none of them could get Yuan Chufeng's favor.
It is precisely because of this that the old lady looks down on Ning Liuying more and more.
The more she looked at Ning Liuying, the more she felt like those foxes who competed with her for favor back then, she suffered a lot in her early years, all because of those pretentious sluts!
"Concubine Niangniang, isn't there a rule in the court that non-wives can't enter the palace? How can you ......" The woman sitting next to the old lady looked puzzled, but in fact, she was pointing out that Ning Liuying's identity was not worthy of entering the palace at all.
The old lady groaned and asked, "What about the prince?" ”
"The prince went out early this morning and hasn't come back yet."
"Go and inquire about what's going on in the palace."
The old concubine has been away from the palace for a long time, her ears and eyes are closed, the news is far less well-informed than at the beginning, and now she wants to inquire about the affairs of the palace and has to waste a lot of effort, she is both angry and hateful, if this son can become the emperor, why is she here?
Yue Zhi listened to the words of the old concubine, hooked her lips and smiled, no matter what happened in the palace today, Ning Liuying was afraid that she would get into trouble, and after she entered the palace, she would find out what a wrong decision this was, if she wanted to enter the palace, she had to bear this blessing!
