"Today, the palace is going to choose a concubine for the four princes, you have to go with me."

When Jiang Yingli heard that he was entering the palace, he was very resistant in his heart, and he immediately showed it on his face: "Mother, I'm still ......"

"Don't say no." Jiang Yingli has not finished speaking. was directly interrupted by Mrs. Hou, Mrs. Hou patted Jiang Yinglian's shoulder to reassure, "Don't worry, if you enter the palace with me today, you will definitely not be wronged, it is a special invitation from Concubine An, and you must participate." ”

Jiang Yingli sighed when she heard this, looked at Qiu Muyun and said resentfully, "Then you can't go today." "I snubbed the other party for a day yesterday, and today I want to snub him again.

Jiang Yingli suddenly began to sympathize with Qiu Muyun, and when Mrs. Hou heard Jiang Yingliang's words, she stared at Qiu Muyun with faint eyes and said, "He can't go, you just go." ”

Mrs. Hou didn't wait for Jiang Yingli and Qiu Muyun to say a few more words, and directly took the dressed Jiang Yingli away.

Qiu Muyun stood at the door, watching the two of them go away, the corners of his mouth hooked up a helpless smile, Aunt Fang Cai has been staring at him with her eyes, he understands that his aunt must have a grudge against him, but he can't help it.

If it weren't for the hardships, he would also want to walk on the street openly with Jiang Yingliang, and he would also like to participate in various banquets with Jiang Yingliang openly, but he didn't have that qualification yet.

Jiang Yingli and Mrs. Hou chatted about the four princes in the carriage along the way, and Jiang Yingli was still a little curious about the four princes' choice of concubines: "Mother, why did the four princes suddenly start choosing concubines?" Isn't it generally the emperor himself who asks for marriage? ”

When Mrs. Hou heard this, her eyelids raised: "I don't know about this, but it is also an honor to let the emperor point to the marriage, it should be that the court has been too fierce recently, and the emperor doesn't want to get involved." ”

Jiang Yingli thought about it for a while, and felt that this was indeed the case, after all, it involved the affairs of the court, Jiang Yingli felt that he should not ask again, so as not to cause trouble.

When they arrived at their destination, Jiang Yingli and Mrs. Hou both got out of the car, but they didn't expect to meet an old acquaintance as soon as they got off the car.

After Jiang Yingli saw Fang Youning and Liuli standing together, her face showed a touch of joy, and she turned her head to look at Mrs. Hou: "Mother, look, Youning and Liuli are also there." ”

When Mrs. Hou heard this, she looked over and found that the two princesses seemed to have discovered them and were walking towards this side, Mrs. Hou patted Jiang Yinglian's shoulder and said with a smile: "Then today, I will hand you over to them, and I will go with those ladies." ”

Mrs. Hou also knew that Jiang Yingli was reluctant to come to the palace today, so it was better to hand her over to the two princesses to take care of, and nothing big would happen.

Jiang Yingli thanked her mother for her thoughtfulness, and after the two of them walked in and said hello to Mrs. Hou, Mrs. Hou left on her own and entered the palace with several ladies.

Liuli and Fang Youning pulled Jiang Yingli and smiled: "Why are you here today?" ”

Jiang Yingli helplessly glanced at the direction of his wife and said, "My mother brought me here, and I don't want to come." ”

Liuli and Fang Youning both knew that Jiang Yingli had been wronged several times when he entered the palace, his eyes were full of sympathy, Fang Youning took Jiang Yingliang's hand and comforted: "Don't worry, you will follow us today, and there will be no long-sighted people who come to trouble you." ”

Liuli also nodded, and said helpfully, "That's right, that's it, you follow us closely, there won't be that unknown person." ”

Jiang Yingliang's heart warmed when he heard this: "Then thank you princess for taking care of it." ”

The three of them laughed for a while, and then walked towards the palace, along the way, many official ladies saw that Jiang Yingli and the two princesses had such a harmonious relationship, and their faces were full of envy.

There were a few bold ones, who couldn't hold their breath, and took the lead in coming up to talk to them, Jiang Yingli knew that the protagonist was not herself, so she silently retreated behind the two, but who knew that the two princesses were extremely enthusiastic in addition to facing Jiang Yingliang.

Treat other people like the frost of March, and a few official ladies in the direct future are like frosted eggplants, which look a little pitiful.

Seeing this, Jiang Yingli was helpless, so he could only come forward and chat with the two young ladies dryly, this young lady also knew that the princess did not welcome her, and said a few words to Jiang Yingliang, and left after finding a step.

Jiang Yingli breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the backs of the two, Liuli patted Jiang Yingliang's shoulder and said: "Actually, you don't have to be like this, we have seen a lot of this kind of thing, so they came over to say a few words, and when they saw that we ignored it, they naturally left." ”

Fang Youning also nodded: "Liuli is right, you don't have to waste time talking to them here, you don't really make friends after all, there is a way, there is a fate, it is like a familiar sight, and the words are not speculative for more than half a sentence." ”

Seeing the two of them say this, Jiang Yingli laughed helplessly, "You can leave it alone, but I can't, since the two princesses don't want to pay attention to them, then let's not stand here, let's go first." ”

Liuli and the two glanced at each other, and also felt that what Jiang Yingli said made sense, and the three of them went directly to the banquet hall, and just sat down, they suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Isn't this the two princesses and the county lord?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yingli turned around in surprise, and sure enough, he found that the concubine was appearing here with a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

Jiang Yingli hurriedly got up and saluted: "I've seen the concubine Niangniang." ”

Liuli and Fang Youning didn't need to make such a big salute, they just nodded slightly, which was regarded as a greeting.

The concubine hooked her lips and didn't mind, she smiled at Jiang Yingli and said, "County Lord, you don't have to make this big gift, get up." ”

Jiang Yingli smiled and stood there harmlessly, but the concubine obviously didn't want to let her go so easily, she carefully looked at Jiang Yingliang's face.

"Oh, I haven't seen the county lord for the past few days, and I seem to be a lot haggard, isn't it good to eat at home? I have a lot of precious Chinese medicine spirit herbs here, and I'll have some of them sent later. ”

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief, Jiang Yingli hurriedly refused: "The kindness of the concubine, the courtier's heart is understood, the good things are naturally kept by the concubine herself, how can it be used on me, it is too wasteful." ”

When the concubine heard this, she wanted to speak, but was directly interrupted by Liuli: "Concubine Niangniang, today is the day of the four princes' selection of concubines, and we still have some things to do, so we won't bother the concubine." ”

After saying this, without waiting for the concubine to answer, he directly pulled Jiang Yingli away, although Jiang Yingliang felt that this was inappropriate, but he was also relieved in his heart, after all, he didn't have to face the concubine's open guns and hidden arrows.

Fang Youning followed behind the two and left, and before leaving, he glanced at the concubine with a smile, bowed slightly, and said goodbye.

Liuli kept taking Jiang Yingli to the garden before stopping, and Jiang Yingli said gratefully: "Thank you so much just now, otherwise I really don't know how to answer her words." ”
