"I asked the kitchen to make your favorite porridge, mainly light, and a plate of sweet and greasy osmanthus cake after the meal, how about it?" Qi Hao couldn't help but smile when she looked at her expectant eyes.

"Sister, how did I get back? Why don't I remember anything? ”

Qi Zhen took a meal for her to pick up the vegetables, "It was Gongzi Chu who sent you back, you are drunk." ”

Seeing that her sister was depressed, Qi Nuan knew in her heart that she was a little uncomfortable, and she didn't say much anymore.

In the past few days, Qi Nuan stayed in the house as usual, and her mother and sister came to see her almost every day, and the days were uneventful, which made her tired. Her body is much better than before, and she wants to go out and live as freely as her sister.

During the meal, the palace made a post, five days later, it was Concubine Jing's birthday banquet, and the emperor was going to hold a big one, so he invited the ministers to bring their families into the palace, and specially nominated to see the second miss of the Zuo Xiangfu, and the ministers remembered that there was a second miss in the Zuo Xiangfu, which could be said to have never been seen.

The emperor didn't know why he mentioned Qi Nuan, but Prime Minister Qi was nervous in his heart, what was the emperor's intention when he mentioned Qi Nuan at this time?

Qi Nuan was very happy in her heart, she could finally go out, it was great.

After preparing for two days, an uninvited guest came to the house, Prime Minister Qi's mother, Zhao.

Zhao is the biological mother of Prime Minister Qi, after Prime Minister Qi was crowned, the scenery is infinite, but this biological mother does not enter the house, and does not come back during the festival, only takes the wife and daughter of Prime Minister Qi's deceased brother to live in the countryside.

When I returned home today, Sima Zhaozhi, Prime Minister Qi and Mrs. Qi Liu Ruyan didn't know, but they just pretended to be dumb.

"Mother is going home, why don't you send someone to deliver a letter, and my son can also let Ruyan prepare." Prime Minister Qi Cheng took the tea and sent it up.

Zhao is more than sixty years old, often in the countryside, and his appearance and temperament are naturally not as good as his peers who live in the capital.

It was a girl in a purple dress who spoke, and everyone only felt that their eyes were bright, and their hearts were comfortable. She is not as gorgeous as Qi Zhen, nor is she Qi Nuan's smart innocence, but an indescribable gentleness, which can also be called generous and decent, and she suddenly understands that such a good girl, it is better to marry casually in the countryside than to enter Beijing, and she can also be married to a good family.

"How come, Yao'er is really a female college eighteen, it can be said that she is slim, come here." Liu Ruyan pulled Qi Yao to sit beside him and looked at him carefully.

Seeing that she was neither humble nor arrogant, but her eyes looked at Liu Ruyan's chin in a decent manner, she could be said to know etiquette very well, praised a few words, and took out a pair of bracelets that she treasured, the workmanship was exquisite, the pearls were round and jade, and the color was also very full, Qi Yao loved it very much, and thanked him repeatedly.

"I don't know if my grandmother is here and my granddaughter is late, so I ask my grandmother not to blame." There were two women's voices outside, like the chirping of a yellow bird, which was very beautiful.

Qi Yao got up from Liu Ruyan's side, there were two girls who came, you don't have to guess to know, the woman with a beautiful blue dress must be Sister Qi Zhen, the first beauty in Shengjing really lives up to her reputation, her hairstyle is gorgeous, her clothes are also gorgeous, and the steps on her head are swaying, which is very beautiful, but no matter how beautiful she is, she is about to get married?

The slightly shorter one next to her is Sister Qi Nuan, wearing a goose-yellow cloak, really petite and lovely, and her temperament is very refined. Her appearance is also first-class, she is only fourteen years old, if she arrives at Jilu, her appearance may not be under Qi Hao, Qi Yao secretly thought, left and right is a sick and weak sister.

Qi Zhen has been in the capital for many years, and she has also walked in the circle of noble girls, how can she not know her thoughts, and she is rejected in her heart, but she cordially greets Qi Yao on her face.

Qi Nuan is very happy, she doesn't get involved in the circle of nobles in the capital, she has no scheming, she is the most likable, the old lady was amused by her without a few words, and took out the gifts for Qi Zhen and Qi Nuan, all hairpins, although they are simple, but they are also the hearts of the old man, and the two of them are still very happy.

After dinner in the evening, they all gathered in the old lady's Yiju Pavilion to chat, and the old lady did not hide it, and explained the origin straightforwardly, "Two days later, Concubine Jing's birthday banquet, I want you to take Yao Yatou with you, she is almost over, if she can have a good marriage, your dead brother can also rest assured." ”

Liu Ruyan's smile decreased a little, knowing the purpose of the old lady and others, but it was also very hurtful for her to say it like this. It is said that the most painful thing for a woman is her young son, why is it not the case that the old lady has not come to see her eldest son for many years, and has been taking care of her younger brother's family outside, but now she is here, but it is for the second child, and she won't even hide it?

She looked at Qi Xiang, and the other party looked at her with relief, and she couldn't help but feel sad.

"What my mother said is that I, as an uncle, will definitely take care of my second brother's family, and now my mother and younger siblings and nieces are here, and they will live in the house, and the niece's affairs will be arranged like a daughter." Qi Xin said sincerely.

Qi Yao's face suddenly turned red, the girl was already shy about marriage, and she was very embarrassed to be said in public, but she was very excited in her heart, with the help of her uncle, she finally didn't want to suffer in the countryside.

"Yulan thanked her eldest brother, you see her blushing, and I'm embarrassed." Zhang Yulan hurriedly joked, Qi Yao's face turned even redder, and she looked like a shy little daughter.

"Sister Yao, why are you here? I was going to look for you, it's really worthy of sisters, so there is a tacit understanding. ”

Early in the morning, Qi Yao came with the maid Bichun, and Qi Nuan greeted her with a smile.

"My sister is weak, I don't worry about you, I'll go with you to say hello to my aunt in a while." When she first entered the house, she came to defect, the people below had unclean mouths, and she couldn't say anything ugly, rather than embarrassing herself, it was better to follow Qi Nuan, this girl didn't have a city at a glance, Qi Nuan would protect her.

"Mother's baby, why are you here, didn't my mother tell you that you don't have to come to say hello in the cold winter? It's really worth fighting. Liu Ru blamed in his mouth, but his eyebrows and eyes were as gentle as water, and he seemed to be disgusted but actually spoiled.

Such Liu Ruyan is even more beautiful than yesterday, Qi Yao was stunned, why is such a beautiful woman not her mother? Why can't she have such a gentle and dignified mother? The hands in the sleeves were clenched tightly, and her eyes changed from plain and calm to a little cold and greedy, if she was the daughter of the Prime Minister's house......

Qi Nuan's sweet voice pulled her thoughts back,

"Sister Yao knows that she has come to say hello to her mother, how can Xiao Nuan not come?"

Liu Ruyan rubbed her little face, "You can be filial today, don't come tomorrow." ”

"What the eldest lady said is that Yao'er didn't think it through, and she won't let her come out to accompany me in the future." Qi Yao lowered his head and had a good attitude, Liu Ruyan smiled and waved his hand, "I have received your wishes, the road is slippery in winter, you are not allowed to come to ask for peace again, there are not so many rules in our house." ”

"Yes."

stayed at Liu Ruyan's residence for a while, but Qi Yao found that Liu Ruyan's love for Qi Nuan could be said to be spoiled to the bones, and the cold asked Nuan for a while, just looking at Qi Nuan's eyes, it was her mother Zhang Yulan who didn't give her, or Qi Zhen was afraid that she didn't have this treatment, right?

Qi Yao sneered in her heart, Liu Ruyan's maternal love is unevenly divided!

After a while, he got up, took one last look at Su Xiaran and turned to leave.......

And Ye Moqing hurried back to Chu overnight, he heard that there was a post in the palace, it was five days later, Concubine Jing's birthday banquet, the emperor was going to hold a big one, and he invited the ministers to bring their families into the palace, and specially nominated to see the second lady of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion.

At that time, Ye Moqing felt that something was wrong when he got the news, this second lady of the Zuo Xiangfu was born weak and sickly as far as he knew, and basically did not show her face in front of outsiders, many people only knew Qi Zhen, the daughter of the left prime minister of the Chu country, but they didn't know that the second miss Qi who was raised in the boudoir, how could the emperor specially nominate to see this Qi Nuan.

This birthday banquet is not simple.

That's why he hurried back to Chu overnight, he wanted to see who this Second Miss Qi was.

And in the past few days, Su Xiaran found that Ye Moqing was gone again, but she was busy taking care of Xu Ruoyun, and Ye Moqing was often like this, but every time he would come back after a while, so she didn't pay much attention to it, just thinking about not having anything happen.

But Su Xiaran didn't know that this reunion was so desperate and desolate.

She would never have imagined that she would one day meet Ye Moqing in that way and in that capacity.

At first, Xu Ruoyun was still very curious, why Ye Moqing was gone, but Su Xiaran was not worried at all, she later asked Su Xiaran, and Su Xiaran told her that he was just going out to run errands and would be back soon.

But she didn't know that this time she was away for three months.

She didn't know that she had missed Ye Moqing so much in the past three months, and even missed her illness.

It has passed the early spring and entered the real spring, and the thriving and prosperous scene outside makes Su Xiaran feel good.

It has been raining for a long time in the past few days, and the sky is also gloomy, coupled with Xu Ruoyun's injury and Ye Moqing's absence, her mood is really depressed to the extreme.

But today's weather is exceptionally sunny, the warm sun is lazily sprinkled on the earth, and the crystal dew drops are lying on the petals or leaves, as if they are also enjoying the tranquility and beauty of this moment.

"Xia Ran, let's go out for a walk today." It was Xu Ruoyun who was coming in from the outside, and I saw that she had almost recovered, her face was ruddy, her face was smiling, her steps were light, and the silver palace bell tied around her waist rang.

"It's okay, it's just that I'm almost suffocating in this house these days, I'll pack up my things, let's go out later, remember to put on the veil." Su Xiaran was in a good mood and spoke in a cheerful tone, but she didn't forget to tell Xu Ruoyun to wear a veil, because now the whole city was wanted by her.

And Xu Ruoyun, who was standing next to her, was wearing a pink dress as usual, the palace bell on her waist made a crisp sound with her movements, her pink little mouth hooked a shallow arc, and a pair of phoenix eyes seemed to be full of autumn water, and her skin was like condensed fat, she skillfully took Su Xiaran's arm and said with a smile to Su Xiaran: "Let's go." ”

"Hmm." Su Xiaran nodded lightly, and then walked out of the inn with Xu Ruoyun.

At this time, Ye Moqing had already arrived in the Chu State, and he hurriedly dismounted and disguised himself and came to the palace.

The state of Chu is in the north, so although the southern autumn country in the south is already full of spring, the state of Chu is still cold and windy. People were still wearing jackets.

Today's palace is very lively, the emperor went to Concubine Jing after the court, the grace can be seen, the eunuch and the palace maid will be as usual in the manner, and the people in the palace will be more polite.

The queen is virtuous, and she gave a lot of things to Concubine Jing early in the morning, and Concubine Jing's birthday can be described as boundless.

In the evening, the minister also brought his family to the palace to celebrate his birthday, which was full of style.

Ye Moqing disguised himself as a guard and stood aside and quietly looked at the people present.

At this time, Qi Nuan followed Qi Zhen and entered the palace gate step by step, and the high wall was full of guards guarding the palace, the majesty of the heavenly family, not angry and self-assured.
