"Sister, don't worry, there are more than us in the palace today."

Lu Mobai was also shocked, but quickly figured out the consequences of the previous situation, and explained to Zheng Lingyi: "Across the two palace gates is the riding and shooting place, I heard that the Empress Dowager Jia'an is going to choose an attendant for the emperor today, and it should be a competition at this time." ”

"Read? Doesn't it need to be discussed in the court before making a decision? Zheng Lingyi vaguely remembered that this position of waiter was also a very good noble errand.

Lu Mobai shook his head and explained softly: "The position of the waiter that my sister said is different from the waiter chosen today. But then again, if this position falls into the hands of a capable person, it is like a ladder to the sky. ”

Zheng Lingyi heard Lu Mobai speak, and a trace of confusion suddenly appeared in his heart.

The Lu family is obviously not a party of the new emperor, and it can even be said that it is feared by the new emperor.

But today, Lu Mobai still appeared in the palace of the Empress Dowager de Jong, can it be regarded as the empress dowager of the two palaces secretly arguing?

This thought flew by, Zheng Lingyi didn't show it, only said, "Thank you sister for telling me." I'm a newcomer, I haven't seen anything, I've never heard of anything, but fortunately I have my sister answering my questions. ”

Crossing Lu Mobai's shoulder, Zheng Lingyi saw Qi and Xie standing in the corner of the corridor from a distance, talking and laughing.

Xie Shi turned his back to Zheng Lingyi, so he couldn't see her expression, but the emotions in the corners of Qi's eyebrows and eyes were very bright, even if it wasn't a good conversation, Qi probably had the intention to meet her.

Lu Mobai followed Zheng Lingyi's gaze, but was a little puzzled, "Sister, what are you looking at?" ”

Before Zheng Lingyi could answer, he heard the palace maid enter the table, and the two looked at each other and smiled, and then walked towards the palace.

The crowd was bustling, but it was well-behaved, and the palace maids who reported their identities attracted people to the table.

Lu Mobai sat down before Zheng Lingyi, smiled at Zheng Lingyi, signaled that she didn't have to be nervous, and made Zheng Lingyi feel a little more at ease.

"Guogong Mansion, Zheng Shiniang."

Lu Nong reported Zheng Lingyi's identity, and the palace maid nodded slightly, and looked for Zheng Lingyi's name in the booklet.

After a while, the palace maid looked at Lu Nong with some confusion and said, "Whether the girl said something wrong or not, there is no such person." ”

There were whispers behind him, and there were also disdainful glances coming from all directions.

Lu Nong couldn't help but get nervous, and stammered, "How, how can it be." Isn't my wife in there? ”

The palace maid turned around and glanced at her, Lu Shi was talking to her side with Empress Dowager De Rong, obviously very decent.

"Girl, wait."

As the palace maid spoke, beckoned a little palace maid and whispered something, the little palace maid twisted her body and walked towards the Lu family.

I don't know which maid bumped Zheng Lingyi rudely, but fortunately Zheng Lingyi stabilized, but he stumbled a step.

She didn't say a word, just stood aside with Midorino.

Lu Mobai saw all this in her eyes, she originally thought of being Zheng Lingyi to relieve the siege, but she also thought that her current identity was not as good as before, if she didn't measure herself, she might be ridiculed together.

There is no shortage of people watching the show inside and outside the door, and Lu Nong only felt that he was stabbed all over his body, and his face was red and white for a while, both embarrassed and scared.

"Sister." She whispered, almost crying.

"Don't be afraid." Zheng Lingyi was actually very uncomfortable, but he didn't know why, the more embarrassing he was, the more surprisingly calm he became.

The ladies outside the door entered one by one, and they were all seated.

The palace maid who passed the word came back and said to a few people: "The Duchess said that the Zheng family's sister was coming when she came, and she forgot to tell us, please ask my sister to make arrangements." ”

The voice of the palace maid was neither high nor low, so that those who had a heart could hear it clearly, and it did not interfere with those who did not want to pay attention to such trivial matters.

The words 'I'm coming' are really annoying to hear, and the palace maid who is in charge of attracting guests is obviously a decent person, she frowned and glanced at Zheng Lingyi, and said, "What can I do, is it possible to ask the ladies and ladies in front of me to sit together?" ”

Zheng Lingyi wanted to speak, but he asked the palace maid to stop him, "Add a small seat on the left side." ”

Zheng Lingyi subconsciously looked at the place she said, where there was already a strange girl in blue with a cold expression.

She has a lot of broken hair on her forehead, her hair is black and shiny, her eyebrows and eyelashes are all thick, and her eyebrows and eyes are extremely deep, plus she is expressionless, hanging the corners of her mouth, and seems to be a little difficult to get along with.

Zheng Lingyi suspected that this girl was another embarrassment prepared by the Lu family, but at the moment, she couldn't help it, so she had to walk over slowly and sit down beside the girl.

The eyes of the people around gradually lost interest, only Lu Mobai glanced at her worriedly from time to time, Zheng Lingyi smiled at her, and Lu Mobai looked away.

Zheng Lingyi sat down for a long time, there was still not even a cup of tea on the table, she didn't say anything, just glanced at the people around her hesitantly, and said lightly: "My sister is the fifteenth mother of the Guogong Mansion, and I dare to ask my sister's name." ”

The bridge of this girl's nose is very high, almost as good as most men, so it seems that she is becoming more and more cold and difficult to get close to.

The girl glanced at Zheng Lingyi, and said coldly as if she was a little reluctant: "Shen Qin." ”

The surname 'Shen' made Zheng Lingyi stunned, since he was a royal noble, how could he sit at the end?

The incomprehensible look on her face was too obvious, not like she was teasing Shen Qin.

Shen Qin softened his complexion slightly, glanced at her again, and thought for a while: "You are the concubine of Zheng Guogong's family." ”

Zheng Lingyi nodded, and said very cautiously: "Yes, my sister has been in the boudoir for a long time, shallow and ignorant, and I hope that Sister Shen will not be surprised, if there is anything wrong, please correct." ”

"Zheng Guogong's teaching is good, no wonder he was able to get out." Shen Qin's voice was very soft, almost like muttering to himself.

She raised her voice a little more, and said to Zheng Lingyi: "I am the concubine of King Ping, I have no title, just an ordinary name." ”

King Ping, it's no wonder.

When the first emperor was there, this king of Ping was a mediocre prince, and the first emperor deliberately cultivated him and gave him many errands, none of which were done well.

At that time, some courtiers in private ridiculed, saying that the title of 'Ping' was too famous, and it should be replaced by 'Yong'.

Now, King Ping died of illness the year before last, and no one takes this King Ping's Mansion in his eyes, even King Ping has been ridiculed so much, how can his daughter be taken seriously.

But since you can't look down on others, why invite Shen Qin to the banquet? If you invite someone to come, why should you arrange this position for her and embarrass her?

Zheng Lingyi felt a little sympathetic for the same disease, and whispered to Shen Qin: "Sister Shen, if you don't dislike it, you can call me fifteen or Lingyi." ”

Shen Qin glanced at Zheng Lingyi, and hummed a 'um' word from the high bridge of his nose.

Although he pretended not to pay attention, Shen Qin saw Zheng Lingyi's situation clearly just now.

Although she is of royal blood, she can grow up from a young age, and she always hears some insinuating ridicule, and she always sees a look of disdain that she is too lazy to hide.

At her current age, she has long learned the ability to turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear.

The corner of Shen Qin's eyes swept over Zheng Lingyi, and saw that she was carefully looking at a glass flower pot placed on the table, with a calm and relaxed look, and the embarrassment she had just suffered seemed to be kicked out of the clouds by her.

Shen Qin said in his heart, "This person is quite interesting. ’

The two were hung in the corner, and others looked at them and felt pitiful, but they were at ease.

"This edamame is steamed and pureed, mixed with chicken broth and whipped into a pulp, and then made into a soup, which is really troublesome."

Zheng Lingyi looked at the soup soup in the small flower plate in front of him, and couldn't help but break it.

Shen Qin silently hooked the corners of his mouth, returned to a cold appearance, and said, "If you do this more, you can boil it with salted water and accompany the wine, it is still delicious." ”

Zheng Lingyi nodded in agreement, but said with a smile: "Some foods take the best taste, but some foods still have to be 'not tired of eating'." ”

Compared with the identities of the two of them, it is natural that Shen Qin steadily overpowered Zheng Lingyi, but the tone and demeanor of her speech were not deliberately flattering, let alone flattering, which made Shen Qin feel very comfortable.

"But your mother-in-law deliberately embarrassed you?" Shen Qin asked with some curiosity.

Zheng Lingyi put down the spoon, pressed the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "It should be." ”

"Then it seems that you are also a person with a heart, so you will ask her to grind like this."

Shen Qin said a few words casually, but it was in the middle of every sentence.

"What about my sister? Why are you here today? Zheng Lingyi figured out that Shen Qin's temperament should not be a narrow-minded person, so he had the courage to ask.

"The mother is crying and asking me to come." Shen Qin said helplessly.

Anyway, he would be ridiculed, Shen Qin simply broke the jar and broke it, and stayed in the martial arts field with his cousin for many years, learning martial arts.

But this year, she was cried back by her mother.

Princess Ping was afraid that she would not be able to get married, so she cried and fainted several times, forcing Shen Qin not to go to the martial arts field again, but the martial arts have been learned, and she can't forget it.

Hearing that the Empress Dowager Derong invited Shen Qin, Princess Ping naturally saw it as an opportunity, she herself wanted to come, but she accidentally fell ill, so she could only let Shen Qin come alone.

"That's better than my sister. My sister came out of a mother's heart, but I came today, but I planted a plan that violated the yang and the yin. ”

Zheng Lingyi said, and glanced at the Xie family who was sitting on the opposite side, her position was just between the Lu family and the Qi family, if it was not deliberately arranged, I was afraid that a three-year-old child would not believe it.

However, Xie Shi's face was cramped, and he seemed to be uncomfortable.

The music was everywhere, Zheng Lingyi retracted his gaze, and saw a group of dancing girls raised in the palace walking outside the door, with long sleeves and moving.

Because all the women present are women, the dancing girls are dignified, the movements are atmospheric and less charming, and there is another feeling.

Zheng Lingyi had never seen such a gorgeous dance, and he was almost obsessed with it.

The dancer who led the dance had beautiful eyes under a pair of makeup, and the golden flowers on her forehead seemed to be able to bloom brightly, so that people could not take their eyes off it.

Suddenly, a short sharp arrow was thrust into the golden flower, and before the dancing girl could even scream, she fell to the ground in a strange posture, her face swallowed up by the gushing blood.
