"My grandmother won't come. She is the backbone of the Dingguo Mansion, how can she do without her grandmother in the mansion! Liu Mengyan said.

The old lady is very old, and her whole body and mind are working for the Dingguo Mansion.

Liu Ruli remembered that in the previous life, the old lady died of illness in the second year after she married Tuoba Yeze.

As soon as she thought about it, she began to worry.

"Your Highness, when will Dr. Xu return?" Liu Mengyan put away her tears and asked.

"I can't say for sure this main hall!" Tuoba Ze said.

"When he returns, the concubine asks him to recuperate for his grandmother." Liu Mengyan said.

Two days passed in a flash, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day of the Queen Mother's birthday.

Getting up early in the morning, without the need for a maid to wait, Tuoba Zeyan took care of himself and changed into a gray brocade robe, revealing a golden hollow magnolia trim inside the robe, with a golden hair crown on his head, the majesty of the heavenly family came out.

is that Liu Mengyan is not a person who only recognizes superficial skin in her eyes, and at this moment she has to admit that Tuoba Zeyan did give birth to a good skin, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a heavenly appearance.

"Princess, didn't you just realize at this moment that this palace is actually beautiful and delicious?" Tuoba Zeyan's thin lips hooked a faint smile, and he quietly leaned forward to Liu Mengyan.

Suddenly, the face that was constantly enlarged in front of her, Liu Mengyan was not used to being so close, a flush flew over her face, and she stepped back and said, "What are you talking about early in the morning, I'm going to freshen up." ”

Because she had to enter the palace to attend the birthday banquet later, Tuoba Zeyan stopped making trouble with her, and called the maid to come in and wait for her to change her clothes.

After weighing whether it was a birthday celebration, Liu Mengyan wore a silver-red gauze skirt, covered with a phoenix cloud smoke dress embroidered with gold silk, and pedaled a pair of shoes embroidered with lotus flowers.

There is a single knife bun combed on the head, which is dotted with pearls, and a five-phoenix sunrise hanging pearl hairpin is inserted obliquely, and the powder is slightly applied, which has a cold and dignified beauty.

The two stood together like a pair of beautiful people, walking hand in hand.

Although the Yang family had the intention to take Qiao in front of Liu Mengyan, they didn't dare to be a little presumptuous to Tuoba Zeyan, so they dressed in advance and waited in the front hall. And as a concubine, even if she has the heart to dominate the crowd, due to the etiquette system of Da Tuoba and the lack of King Yi's favor, she can only choose a light pink skirt to wear on such a prosperous day.

However, in the headdress, Yang still put a lot of effort into it, combing the open screen bun. There are coral beads on it, and four silver gilt dotted emerald plum hairpins are inserted on each side, and a string of golden silk fragrant wood inlaid cicada jade beads are worn on the wrist, which is more difficult than the day when it was just given into the mansion.

"Concubine to the princess and princess." Yang stepped forward and gave a salute and put on a pose that he thought was beautiful.

Tuoba Zeyan walked in front of her with Liu Mengyan in his arms, and then said lightly.

Yang got up with Qing'er's support, his eyes followed the two figures walking in front of him, a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and he pursed the corners of his lips and followed.

Someday, she will take the woman's place.

Liu Mengyan didn't know that at this time, the Yang family had already remembered the position of her princess, and when she left the front hall, she joined hands with Tuoba Zeyan and naturally got into the carriage regulated by King Yi. The Yang family, who followed closely behind, got into a much smaller carriage behind him according to the rules.

After a little tidying, the two carriages headed for the palace.

In the car, Tuoba Zeyan said to Liu Mengyan unhurriedly: "After entering the palace later, you and the Yang family will first go to the Yanshou Palace to say a simple hello to the Queen Mother, and then go to the concubine's Changle Palace to rest." Don't worry, according to the old calendar, the queen mother's birthday banquet should be held after her father and emperor go to court. ”

Liu Mengyan nodded and said, "Your Highness don't worry, the concubine will take care of herself." ”

Saying that, thinking of the news that the Zhu family sent to her before, Liu Mengyan's eyes flashed with hesitation, and she said, "Your Highness, do you want to go to the prince's side to have a look?" Although it is not a major disease, if we don't show up all the time, I'm afraid that we will leave something to talk about. ”

Tuoba Zeyan shook his head: "It's okay, the prince has already gone to the court, and his condition is getting better." ”

Liu Mengyan thought of Liu Ruomei's matter, and couldn't help but ask with one more sentence: "Does Your Highness know what kind of illness the prince has?" ”

Tuoba Zeyan had a complicated and strange look on his face, looked at Liu Mengyan, wanted to speak and stopped, and didn't open his mouth for a long time.

Liu Mengyan saw that Tuoba Zeyan seemed reluctant to speak, so she immediately changed her words and said: "By the way, this birthday, the congratulatory gift prepared for the Queen Mother is a white jade Guanyin." I don't know if the Queen Mother likes it."

"The Queen Mother believes in Buddhism, this gift is very suitable." Tuoba Zeyan nodded with satisfaction.

Unconsciously arrived at the palace while the two were talking, and after Tuoba Zeyan got out of the carriage, he said to Liu Mengyan: "You go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye first, and the main hall will go to Chengtian Palace." ”

"Your Highness, rest assured, the concubine will take care of herself." After saying that, Liu Ruli glanced at the Yang family who was standing beside her, and then said, "With Concubine Yang." ”

Tuoba Zeyan nodded and went to Chengtian Palace, Liu Mengyan didn't stay where she was, and took the Yang family and their respective maids to Yanshou Palace.

To be honest, Liu Mengyan has walked on this road countless times in her life, but no one is leading the way, and she can also touch the Queen Mother's Longevity Palace. Thinking about it, people are really not as good as heaven, she thought that there were few opportunities to enter the palace in this life, but she didn't expect that in less than a month, she walked on this road one after another.

Different from the previous life, the opportunity for Bitong to follow Liu Mengyan into the palace in this life is not different.

However, her temperament is more calm than the other three maids who accompanied Liu Mengyan to marry into King Yi's mansion. Even without Liu Mengyan's special advice, after entering the palace, Bitong consciously controlled her eyes. I didn't look at what I shouldn't see, I only lowered my eyes, and carefully held a gift box with a white jade Guanyin and followed behind Liu Mengyan.

Yang took Qing'er's hand and followed him, thinking that when he was separated at the gate of the palace just now, Tuoba Zeyan didn't even give him a look. The more he thought about it, the more Yang felt that it was too much.

But Yang didn't think it was Tuoba Zeyan's fault, women married and obeyed their husbands, which has been the case since ancient times. Whether it is a lady who was born as a prince and a general, or the daughter of a small person in the market, she regards her husband as the sky.

The Yang family only hated the clouds blocking the sky, that is, the woman who walked in front of him. If it weren't for her presence, His Highness would definitely see her good.

Once distracting thoughts have taken root, they can no longer restrain the growth of evil thoughts. At the moment of lightning light, Yang thought of an opportunity that could make Liu Mengyan lose face. It seemed that he had no intention of dividing part of his peripheral vision to stare at the road, but because of his heart, Yang soon saw a small stone on the side of the road.

Without thinking much about it, Yang instinctively raised his calf slightly and kicked the small stone under his feet forward.

The small stone rolled a few times and landed right at the foot of Bitong. Bitong stepped on it defenselessly for a while, poofed, and leaned straight forward. No matter how anxious he was, he couldn't resist the body's inertial reaction, and the gift box he was holding flew out.

Clang, a crisp sound sounded.

Bitong didn't care about the hurt hands and feet, so he opened the gift box in a panic, and looked at the white jade Guanyin that was broken into pieces, and Bitong immediately slapped himself.

Yang pretended to step forward and hold Bitong, "Oh, how did you do things so carelessly." ”

Bitong was so anxious that she cried, and Qing'er deliberately made a fuss when she saw this: "This is a birthday gift specially prepared by the princess for the queen mother, how good is it that it is broken now!" ”

"Princess, it's not good to be a slave, a slave and a maid should die." Bitong knelt directly in front of Liu Mengyan.

Liu Mengyan sank down and looked at the reddened palm prints on her face, frowned, and said, "If you fall, you will fall, hit yourself and do something, get up first and then speak." ”

Yang deliberately added fuel to the fire: "The princess didn't say that, if this matter is known by the queen mother, her old man will definitely be unhappy." ”

Liu Mengyan was noncommittal: "Okay, let's pick up these fragments first." ”

Bitong and Qing'er clean up the debris on the ground. Liu Mengyan narrowed her eyes, looked at the gloating Yang, and said calmly: "This princess will personally present gifts to the Queen Mother, even if there are no gifts, it will not be in the way." ”

"The princess is both talented and beautiful, and the concubine naturally believes that the princess will personally give a gift, which will definitely make the queen mother happy." Yang was complimented on his face, but he sneered in his heart.

Now, she doesn't believe that Liu Mengyan, who is empty-handed, can conjure flowers, and it is destined to be a good show later.

"Okay, it's time for us to say hello to the Queen Mother, if it falls into the eyes of outsiders, it will be the Yiwang Mansion that is not polite." After appeasing Bitong, Liu Mengyan got up calmly and took the Yang family to Yanshou Palace.

Because it is the birthday of the Queen Mother, Yanshou Palace is more lively than usual.

Walking in, I saw that the room was full of people from the three palaces and six courtyards, and sitting next to the Queen Mother was Queen Wang, and then sat Chen Guifei, Xiao Chen, the crown princess, the second princess, Xuan Guifei, Mei Fei, Qi Zhaoyi and several princesses.

The palace people replied, and the eyes of everyone in the hall turned to the entrance of the hall.

is that some people don't want to admit it in their hearts, and the woman who walked in was bright and dignified, which instantly made everyone in the palace shine.

Zhuyu was in front, and when the Yang family who followed into the hall appeared, the whole palace was not much touched.

It's just that his eyes swept with interest, with a slight look of watching a good show.

Before, the Queen Mother gave Tuoba Zeyan three concubines, and this matter was almost spread all over the palace.

To their surprise, Liu Mengyan would actually show up with one of the concubines at such a feast.

Liu Mengyan naturally took everyone's looks in her eyes, her face was impassive, with a decent smile, she walked in front of the Queen Mother, and gave a salute: "Daughter-in-law greets the Queen Mother, I wish the Queen Mother a long life and good health." ”

Yang followed with a salute and said some auspicious words to celebrate his birthday.

Empress Dowager Chen smiled with satisfaction, raised her hand and excused the two of them and said: "Good children, they are all good children, seeing the harmony of the little six wives and concubines, I, who is a grandmother, am very happy in my heart." ”

"It's still the queen mother's good vision, there is no one in the palace who is better at training girls than you, and such a smart palace maid is willing to give it to Lin'er." After Concubine Xuan flattered together, she said as if unintentionally: "Now that the wives and concubines in Lin'er's mansion are harmonious, why don't you also choose a few beautiful and gentle concubines for the third prince?" ”
