In the palace, Lan Yingying sat quietly beside the emperor and studied ink for him, with an elegant posture.

"By the way, Concubine Ai, you can go and help me do something." The emperor raised his head from the bookcase, looked at Lan Yingying and said.

Lan Yingying chuckled: "The concubine and the emperor are one, how can you help the word, the emperor will say that the concubine will do her best." ”

"Well, this matter is not difficult to do, it will be Princess Juan's birthday in two days, it is inconvenient for me to go over in person, you go and run for me and go to the Lin family to send a blessing."

The smile on the corner of Lan Yingying's lips froze for a moment, quickly recovered, and nodded: "Yes, the concubine will definitely do a good job, and the emperor is at ease." ”

The emperor smiled, nodded with satisfaction, put down the brush in his hand, and held Lan Yingying's hand: "I know that you are wronged, but I still hope that you can get along well." ”

"Your Majesty, you have filtered, the previous things have passed, we have to look forward now, and the concubines also hope to be good friends with Princess Juan."

"In that case, I'm relieved."

The daughter of the Lin family who was picked up from the countryside, the emperor fell in love at first sight, and even did not hesitate to give her the title of princess, Lin Juan, was about to hold a birthday banquet.

As soon as the news spread, crowds of people from all walks of life inquired when and where it was held.

This kind of opportunity to make friends with the hot people in the capital today is so rare, of course they can't miss it.

So, on her birthday, the scene was even more lively than Lan Wan'er expected.

The ladies of various famous families came to send blessings, and many slightly famous lords also brought gifts and occupied a place.

In the congratulations of everyone, Lan Xuan'er appeared last.

The birthday banquet was held in a small courtyard in the Lin Mansion, with beautiful scenery on both sides, and the place was spacious enough, and everyone sat down according to their own positions.

Now, they are all stretching their necks, wanting to see the demeanor of this rising star in Beijing.

Not all of these people can participate in the state banquet, so most of them have never seen Lan Xuan'er, and they usually don't have the opportunity to meet her.

Lan Xuan'er was dressed in blue clothes, walked over in the expectant eyes of everyone, smiled at the guests who came on both sides, and then walked towards Lin Cheng, "Father." ”

"Okay, today is your birthday, it's fun."

"Thank you, father."

Lan Xuan'er's appearance, except for those who had seen her before, had a lot of shock in the hearts of the rest.

Some admired her beauty, while others were secretly surprised.

"Isn't this the first queen!" Someone expressed it directly.

Someone immediately chimed in: "I was fortunate enough to see the former queen once before, and she does look exactly like the first queen." ”

This topic immediately caused quite a stir.

I have long heard that the daughter of the Lin family who came back from the countryside looks nine points similar to the former queen, and the reason why the emperor loved her at first was mostly because of her appearance.

Looking at it today, the rumors are indeed true!

You know, rumors are generally exaggerated, so when people heard such rumors in the past, they just regarded it as an after-dinner conversation.

Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, where is this a little exaggerated, even if it is directly said that Lin Juan is the first queen, they also think it is very possible.

Lin Cheng had expected this reaction, and glanced at the housekeeper behind him.

The housekeeper understood, and interrupted the discussion in the seat: "Everyone, be quiet, our Miss Lin Mansion has a little bit of fate with the first queen, but everyone knows that the first queen has already died, and our Miss Lin family is the young lady of my Lin Mansion." ”

This explanation also reminds everyone of the fact that Lin Juan can't be the first queen, who has seen the resurrection of the dead.

The master personally came out to refute the rumors, and it was naturally impossible for everyone to say anything.

Wei Xuanyun looked at Lan Xuan'er who was standing beside Lin Cheng, and when she heard the unhesitating words of praise from the mouths of the people around him, a strong sour taste spread from her heart.

He walked up to Lin Cheng and quietly blocked the sight of those people looking at Lan Wan'er.

Bowing respectfully to Lin Cheng, Wei Xuanyun looked at Lan Wan'er: "Wanwan, happy birthday." ”

Lan Wan'er smiled lightly.

At this moment, there was a commotion at the door, and a subordinate hurriedly came to report: "Master, Miss, Concubine Ying is here." ”

As soon as the words fell, Lan Yingying's voice appeared in front of everyone.

In addition to the affairs of the concubine in the palace, where have you seen a concubine come to the minister's house in person to send birthday blessings to his daughter.

Moreover, doesn't it mean that Lan Yingying and Lan Wan'er are very incompatible?

It seems that the rumors sometimes have a big error!

"This palace heard that Miss Lin was born today, so I specially stayed with a gift and came to congratulate you." She gestured to the little palace maid behind her.

The palace maid stepped forward and gave the gift.

Lan Wan'er frowned and looked at the exquisitely packaged gift box, and then looked at Lan Yingying, a little puzzled by what she wanted to do.

Could it be that there is some poison hidden in this gift? When she opens it, she will be poisoned to death?

She didn't think Lan Yingying had suddenly become kinder.

"Miss Lin, see if you like it or not, I specially picked it for you."

Lan Wan'er didn't reply for a while, just looked at her lightly, judging the emotions on her face.

But the result was a little disappointed for her, Lan Yingying had nothing but a shallow smile on her face.

Lan Wan'er was no longer entangled in this, and said lightly: "Thank you Concubine Ying for your kindness, it's just that my Lin family hasn't sent an invitation to Concubine Ying, so..."

The latter words are naturally inconvenient to say on such an occasion, but everyone understands the meaning.

Doesn't it mean that they didn't give a post, you stupid people don't welcome you!

In this way, the rumors are still somewhat true.

Lan Yingying's hand under her sleeve was gently clenched, her face was as usual, and she said softly: "It's the negligence of this palace, I don't know if you still need an invitation for a birthday banquet, thinking that this palace and you are also acquainted, and it is also appropriate to come over and send blessings." ”

A self-justification, so that the people who eat melons are addicted.

When have they ever seen the emperor's concubine come to the house of a minister's daughter to send birthday wishes to others and be ordered to be expelled, and the key is that the emperor's favorite concubine also found herself to go down the stairs.

Everyone couldn't help but have a new understanding of Lan Wan'er and Lan Yingying.

Lan Wan'er's eyelids jumped, and she didn't understand Lan Yingying's operation even more.

Although she has a certain understanding of Lan Yingying's cheekiness, she is rarely cheeky in front of herself, if she has no other purpose, the ghost can believe it!

Thinking of this, Lan Wan'er didn't want to see Lan Yingying even more.

But Lan Yingying is still a good sister's enthusiasm: "Juan'er, we haven't seen each other for a few days, the last time you came to the palace, I didn't treat you well, I often come to the palace to play and talk to me when I have time." ”

As she spoke, Lan Yingying also grabbed Lan Wan'er's hand with her own hands.

Lan Wan'er suddenly felt a chill, and directly shook Lan Yingying's hand away.

"Concubine Ying, just say it directly, you don't have to put on this fake look, today is my birthday banquet, there is no invitation, you can't come in at will." Lan Wan'er reminded again.

The light smile on the corner of Lan Yingying's mouth narrowed a little, and her face was a little stiff.

"Why is Princess Wan like this, what happened between us before has passed, and today the emperor specially asked the palace to send you blessings, and he also wants to repair our relationship."

She moved the emperor out, if Lan Wan'er was interested, she shouldn't be so aggressive anymore.

But she still underestimated how much Lan Wan'er disliked her.

She sneered and said sarcastically: "Your Majesty? The emperor may not know what happened between us, doesn't Concubine Ying know? Do you think there is still a possibility of a fix between us? The emperor should ask you to help him send blessings, I know his intentions, you can go. ”

Now, she drove people out directly, but she didn't insinuate much.

Lan Yingying's face was blue and white for a while, where would she have thought that she would have a hot face and a cold ass and be driven out of the house one day.

This blue lady is too ignorant!

Lan Wan'er was also depressed at the moment, and her good mood was disturbed by this woman, what did the emperor think, even if he sent a eunuch, why should he send someone who is even more disgusting than him.

"In that case, this palace wants to see how long you can go crazy!" Lan Yingying put aside the next sentence and turned around and left.

The palace maid who was holding the gift just now put it on a table next to it and left in a hurry.

Lan Wan'er pursed her lips, if she didn't like her, she would start from the surface, why did she pretend to be a sisterly just now, wouldn't it be more comfortable to get along like this.

This episode made the hearts of those present quietly change a little bit.

Nonsense, no matter how prominent their family is, they don't dare to confront the emperor's favored concubine in public, so that she can't get off the stage!

Everyone only knows one thought in their hearts, this Lan Xuan'er, it is better not to provoke or try not to provoke.

Didn't you see that the previous imperial concubines were so angry with her that they almost vomited blood, and they didn't dare to do anything to her?

Lan Wan'er is okay, as long as there are no people she doesn't like around to get in the way, she can make herself happy.

Fortunately, the emperor only let Lan Yingying come today, and he didn't come by himself, so she couldn't dare to have the idea of driving people.

The birthday banquet ended in a slightly awkward atmosphere, and when everyone was over, Lan Xuan'er took Wei Xuanyun back to her small courtyard together.

As soon as she entered the door, she sat directly on the chair, "Eh, I'm so tired, it turns out that the birthday party has to deal with so many people!" ”

"The princess who was sealed by the emperor himself naturally has to deal with you well, even if it can't be related, it's good to leave a good impression." Wei Xuanyun explained with a smile.

Walked behind Lan Xuan'er and massaged her.

Lan Wan'er almost exhaled in comfort: "You have practiced this technique, right?" ”

Wei Xuanyun was a little puzzled, and Lan Xuan'er was shocked to realize what she had said unintentionally, smiled awkwardly, and muttered, "I mean, hehe, you are very comfortable pinching." ”
