The Hundred Flowers Banquet was not held in the palace, but in the Royal Lodge, which was not effective.

The Queen Mother attaches great importance to this concubine selection banquet, and sent Geng Ti to various officials early.

At dawn today, the city gate was crowded with carriages to leave the city.

Lin Mumu lifted the corner of the curtain and looked outside. "That's a lot of people this day."

"No, the slave maid heard that the queen mother originally wanted to set the rank of officials above the top five grades, but then somehow changed her mind, saying that as long as there is an official rank, and there are unmarried concubines in the house, they can participate in the banquet." Qiaoqiao took a soft cushion for Lin Mumu and put it on her back to make her more comfortable.

"When the new emperor ascends the throne, he must cultivate a group of his own forces, and the queen mother is doing this to give those who want to climb up a chance." Lin Mumu leaned lazily, although her spirit was better after three months, she was carefully held by Zhao Xuanling and them for a long time, and she became more and more lazy, and she could lie down and never sit.

Stacking took out a small box of candied fruit from the small drawer, after she became pregnant, Lin Mumu especially liked to eat sweet and sour preserves, no matter where she went, they would prepare some.

Lin Mumu ate a snack and half-squinted her eyes and sat on the carriage with her eyes closed.

"Sugar-fried chestnuts, fragrant and sweet sugar-fried chestnuts."

Stir-fried chestnuts with sugar!

Lin Mumu opened her eyes and sniffed, and she smelled the fragrant and glutinous smell of sugar-fried chestnuts.

"It smells so good."

"The princess wants to eat fried chestnuts with sugar?" Qiaoqiao asked, she found that the princess must eat whatever she wants to eat these days, otherwise she will be unhappy.

"Well, I want to eat."

Stacked up the curtain and looked out at the street. "The slave maid remembers that there is a crispy shop in front of me, where the sugar-fried chestnuts are the most delicious, and the slave maid went to buy some for the princess."

Lin Mumu nodded. "Okay, it tastes better if it is freshly fried."

"The slave knows."

Stacked up and lifted the curtain, jumped out of the car and went to buy chestnuts.

"The princess drank some sour plum soup to relieve fever."

It's almost summer, and the temperature is still relatively high during the day.

"Hmm."

Lin Mumu sat up and took the sour plum soup, and just as she was about to drink it, there was a sudden exclamation outside the car.

"Quick, get out of the way, get out of the way!"

"Ahh

The screams of fear lifted people's hearts.

Lin Mumu put down the sour plum soup and lifted the curtain to take a look, and saw a carriage with four tall horses rushing madly in the direction where Lin Mumu was.

"Protect the princess!"

The guards of the Imperial Palace have long been on standby.

The four fiery horses seemed to be frightened, and they would not stop, no matter how tightly the coachman pulled the reins.

Seeing that the carriage was about to hit the carriage where Lin Mumu was, the guards of the palace flew up, and everyone felt that there was blood in front of them, and in the next moment, the four fierce horses fell to the ground with a bang.

The sound of "bang" shook people's hearts.

Lin Mumu sat in the carriage, looking at the carriage close at hand, and a pair of brows wrinkled invisibly.

Qiaoqiao was frightened and turned white, but even so, she still clenched her fists and stopped in front of Lin Mumu, and it took a while for her to look at Lin Mumu and say, "Is the princess okay?" ”

Lin Mumu shook her head and patted her hand. "I'm fine, don't be nervous."

Qiaoqiao heard her say this, and the breath she was carrying instantly leaked. "I was really scared to death just now."

"The incompetence of his subordinates frightened the princess." The leader of the guard knelt down in front of the carriage and pleaded guilty.

"Concubine Ben is fine, you are doing a good job, it is too careless for you to ask which house the carriage is."

"Yes."

The leader of the guards asked people to find the people from Jingzhao Yin Mansion to clean up the mess, after all, it was the princess who was almost hit, and the people from Jing Zhao Yin Mansion didn't dare to be a little lazy, but they rushed over in a quarter of an hour.

"Which carriage is this, how can you go crazy?" After Jing Zhaoyin arrived, people asked all the way.

"My lord, the little one went to ask, and the forbidden army of the harvest said that the carriage suddenly rushed in from outside the city, and no one knew which house it was, and there was no insignia on the carriage, and the driver of the car also fell to his death, and there was nothing in the carriage."

The result of the palace guards going to inquire was the same, the carriage seemed to come out of nowhere, and there was no source at all.

At this time, Diedie bought the sugar-fried chestnuts, Lin Mumu whispered a few words in her ear, Diedie nodded with a calm face, turned around and got out of the carriage. "Leave this matter to the people of Jingzhao Yin's Mansion to deal with, it's not too early, don't delay the Hundred Flowers Banquet held by the Queen Mother."

"Yes."

Jing Zhaoyin walked to Lin Mumu's carriage when he heard the sound. The princess can rest assured that the lower officials will definitely find the person who is making trouble. ”

Lin Mumu nodded. "Thank you, then, sir." After speaking, Qiaoqiao lowered the curtain and the carriage moved forward slowly.

The carriage had just rushed in and knocked over a lot of roadside shops, but it didn't hurt anyone, and everyone did whatever they had to do after they hastily cleaned up.

At this time, on the second floor of a teahouse on the side of the street, a slender figure stood in front of the window and watched Lin Mumu's carriage slowly walk down the street, his narrow eyes narrowed slightly.

The royal manor was less than twenty miles away, and after leaving the city, they walked nearly an hour before they reached the outside of the royal manor.

Qiaoqiao just helped Lin Mumu to get out of the carriage, and Diedie came back. Fat cat bar

"Princess, the slave found this on the horse's buttocks." Stacking took out a cloth bag from his body, and inside was three steel needles the length of three palms. ”

Lin Mumu raised her eyebrows, no wonder those horses were crazy like this, could such a long steel needle be pierced into the flesh?

"Did you spot any suspicious people around?"

Diedie shook his head, there were too many people on the street, and the other party deliberately hid it, and it was not easy to find people out.

"Someone deliberately tried to murder the princess!" Qiaoqiao looked at the steel needle in Diedie's hand with an annoyed expression.

"There are so many carriages in front of you that have not been hit, but the princess is unlucky, how can there be such a coincidence in this world."

Of course, Lin Mumu didn't believe that this was a coincidence, and some people were afraid that they couldn't wait to deal with her.

"Mu Mu!"

Lin Mumu came back to his senses, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Lan Qinzhu walking towards this side with a smile on his face.

"Azhu."

"Oh, look at my memory." Lan Qinzhu ran to Lin Mumu and patted herself, then took a step back and saluted Lin Mumu properly. "Say hello to the princess."

Lin Mumu laughed at her serious posture. "No need to be polite, get up."

"Thank you, Princess."

Lan Qinzhu raised her head, and the two looked at each other, and they saw a warm smile in each other's eyes.

"I wanted to go to the palace to see you a few days ago, but unfortunately your prince didn't let me go."

Lin Mumu blinked. "And this?"

"That's not it, the guard guarding the door said, our princess is expensive, no one can disturb the princess, I heard that you are pregnant, is it true?" Lan Qinzhu said, and circled around her twice. "Well, this waist is indeed a lot fatter!"

Lin Mumu glared at her. "I'm rounded, what fat doesn't exist!"

"Mu Mu, it's so good, I'm sincerely happy for you."

Lin Mumu met her serious eyebrows, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Are you really out of trouble with Fang Gongzi?"

Lan Qinzhu's eyes widened. "We're talking about happy things, what do you mention about him...... Vomit! Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly retched.

"Madame!"

"Azhu!"

After vomiting twice, Lan Qinzhu relieved herself. "It's okay, it's okay, I may have eaten a little too much in the carriage, and I just bumped to my stomach to the point that I felt a little sick to my stomach."

Lin Mumu didn't say anything when she saw that her face was normal. "You have your own ideas, what are you doing if you have nothing to eat so much, I'm afraid that you won't be given food at the banquet?"

"Let's get in, it's not too early."

"Hmm."

The two walked into the manor together.

The royal estate in the summer is simply beautiful to the eye.

Almost all the way are pavilions, birds singing and flowers, and there is a male peacock in a small garden.

"This peacock is really beautiful."

The peacock seemed to understand what the two of them said, turned around, and the feathers behind him slowly opened, and it was so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off it for a while.

The banquet was held in the Hundred Flowers Pavilion in the manor.

"Look, there is the Hundred Flowers Pavilion in front of me, I heard that the royal king sent flowers to Miss Sima in the flowers in the Hundred Flowers Pavilion."

"Really, where?"

"It's just ahead, let's go and see."

Lan Qinzhu looked at the two young ladies who left, and her brows were furrowed. "It's really boring to bring up what to do after so long of things."

Lin Mumu didn't care, she knew that Zhao Xuanling was putting her in her heart now, and that was enough.

They walked into the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, looking at the boundless sea of flowers, at this time there were all kinds of young ladies standing in the sea of purple and red flowers, they were laughing or making trouble, smiling and smiling with the unique coquettishness of the woman, it was really more beautiful than the flowers.

The banquet was held on the edge of the flowers, where tables and chairs were already set up.

The palace maid led Lan Qinzhu and Lin Mumu to their seats.

"What's the point of sitting, why don't we go and play in the sea of flowers?" On this occasion, Lan Qinzhu is the most unbearable.

"Mrs. Fang, our princess is inconvenient," Qiaoqiao couldn't help but remind, there were too many people on the other side ......of the sea of flowers, so I was afraid that Lin Mumu would be bumped into after passing over.

Lan Qinzhu patted her head. "Yes, look at my dog memory, then Mu Mu, you wait, I'll pick a few beautiful flowers for you."

"Those are all flowers planted by the Queen Mother, if you let people know that you are suing the Queen Mother, you will wait to be beaten."

Hearing Lin Mumu say this, Lan Qinzhu completely stopped all her thoughts. "It's really boring, so let's see what we can do?"

Lin Mumu was about to speak, but when she raised her eyes, she saw a palace maid walking over with Sima Yun.

This is a banquet for Zhao Rufei to choose a concubine, and now that no one in the Sima family is an official in the court, how did Sima Yun come in?
