At the beginning of Shen Shichu, Lin Ruan got into a carriage and went to the palace.

Although it is a dinner party, it is actually necessary to go early, after all, entering the palace is not only a simple matter of having dinner, but also needs to go to the palaces in advance to meet the emperor's concubines, and also to pray for blessings under the leadership of the queen, and finally the dinner.

Lin Ruan felt a pain in his head just by listening to that process.

She actually doesn't like to participate in this kind of occasion, but she still says that she should be in her position and seek her own government.

The emperor gave her a special honor, and she had to do what she should do well.

Wearing a complicated and heavy dress, and wearing a beautiful crown from the three grades on his head, the whole person looks very noble.

But Lin Ruan didn't feel happy at all, the crown had to weigh three or four pounds, and it was really not a trivial matter to wear.

But fortunately, her body is strong, and this thing can't stop her. You need to be careful when walking, after all, you are top-heavy and your center of gravity is a little unstable.

Lin Ruan secretly complained in his heart, no wonder he said that all the ladies in ancient times were dignified and steady, and they couldn't shake their skirts or sit on their knees, in fact, it was because they didn't dare to move too much, otherwise it would be easy to have an accident with this crown.

Her county lord's mansion was not too far from the palace, and it was less than half an hour's drive away.

There are a lot of people entering the palace for the banquet today, and the officials and family members above the third grade have to participate, and they all bring maids, so there must be more than three carriages in each official's house.

With a single car like Lin Ruan, she really can't find a second one except her.

There are many cars, so it is naturally slow, and there are a series of procedures when entering the palace, so there is a long queue of cars and horses on Qinglong Street.

Lin Ruan lifted the curtain and glanced out, and then let Fei Fu flip out of the box under the soft couch.

Green Calyx took out two plates of pastries from the food box and put them on the table: "County Lord, let's eat something first, I heard that the things at the dinner are not delicious, they are all cold, you eat something first, otherwise you won't be able to bear it." ”

Lin Ruan was a person who listened to persuasion, reached out and pinched a piece of soft and glutinous osmanthus cake, read a book while eating, and also ordered the green calyx and flying flocculent to eat some cushions.

The three masters and servants waited in the carriage for more than half an hour before finally arriving at the palace gate.

Get out of the carriage and be inspected before entering the palace, and then walk into the palace.

From the palace gate to the Kunning Palace where the queen lives, it is two miles away, and this distance is nothing to Lin Ruan and the others.

But it is really not a trivial matter for those pampered officials and ladies, but on such an occasion, no one dares to show half of the inappropriateness, and everyone has a decent smile on their faces, but no one speaks.

After all, it takes strength to speak.

According to the order of advancement, Lin Ruan's master and servant were in the middle position, but as they walked, they actually reached a higher position.

It is enough to see how hard those noble ladies and daughters walked.

Lin Ruan didn't want to be too showy, so he deliberately slowed down his pace and tried to fall behind as much as possible.

But no matter how slow it is, their good physical strength is there, and they are always forced to catch up with others.

Lin Ruan felt that this palace banquet was a bit tricky, knowing that these noble ladies and daughters were not physically strong, and even let people walk in, which was quite disgusting.

However, Lin Ruan only thought about it in his heart, walking steadily under his feet, but in his heart, he was thinking about waiting to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to study some new desserts for the sweet hut.

If you want to do a good business, then you must keep innovating, otherwise after a long time, no matter how delicious things are, they will lose their attractiveness.

Thinking about things in his heart, Lin Ruan's attention couldn't help but be a little distracted.

Green Calyx and Fei Fu are both entering the palace for the first time, and they are somewhat curious, plus this is the palace inside, and there is no problem with safety, so the two are also a little deserted.

The three of them walked and walked, and suddenly a gray-haired lady next to her fell to her feet, and she was about to lie on the ground.

"Be careful!" Lin Ruan's body was faster than his brain, and he stepped forward with an arrow and squeezed the lady in time.

After the old lady stood firm, Lin Ruan let go of her hand and asked casually, "Old lady, are you okay?" ”

At this moment, a young girl who was dressed luxuriously but had no grade stepped forward, squeezed Lin Ruan away, held the old lady, and asked in a concerned tone, "Grandmother, how are you?" Did you fall somewhere? ”

Without waiting for the old lady to answer, the girl turned her head and scolded Lin Ruan with a white face: "How did you walk?" Do you have long eyes? Do you know who my grandmother is? If she falls out of the way, can you afford to pay for it? ”

The green calyx was a person who protected the lord, and immediately stepped forward and said: "This girl, you can take a closer look just now, if it weren't for the quick reaction of my county lord, this old lady would have been lying on the ground at this time." You are good, not only do you not thank my county lord for his righteous action, but you also want to bite my county lord back, which is really unreasonable! Also, you dare to shout at my county lord even if you are white, your mansion is really majestic! ”

The girl snorted coldly: "It's just a county lord from the third grade, what's the big deal." My mother is Mrs. Zhongxiao, and she didn't hurry up to salute when she saw my mother! ”

"Ah Ruan, don't be rude!"

The lady of Zhongxiao had regained her composure under the comfort of Yahuan, and there was no blame in her voice when she scolded the girl.

When Lin Ruan Chu heard the word "Ah Ruan", he thought he was calling himself. But seeing the girl's unconvinced pout, she knew that Mrs. Nabo was calling the other party.

Actually collided with her name?!

But Lin Ruan didn't care much about it, after all, the world is so big, and there are more people with the same name and surname. Just listening to Mrs. Nabo's tone, she regretted a little that she had just been nosy.

It's just that this person helped and helped, and she didn't bother to bother with them, so she made a regular salute to Mrs. Bo: "Fuyou has seen Mrs. Zhongxiao Bo, if Mrs. Bo is okay, then Fuyou will take the first step." ”

Mrs. Zhongxiao smiled faintly: "It was really thanks to the county lord of Fuyou just now, otherwise the old body would have suffered a big crime." My granddaughter is impatient and speaks out of proportion, and the old man makes amends to the county lord for her, and I hope that the county lord will not be as knowledgeable as her. ”

Then he motioned to Yahuan to help her take two steps forward: "I heard a lot of anecdotes about the county lord before, but I didn't have the opportunity to meet the county lord." Today, I received the help of the county lord again, and I really felt a little close to the county lord in my heart. ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Zhongxiao had already taken off a pair of jade bracelets on her wrist and handed them to Lin Ruan: "The first time I saw the county lord, I didn't know what the county lord liked, so this pair of bracelets should be regarded as a gift from the old body to the county lord." In the future, the county lord has time, and he is welcome to be a guest in the house. ”
