One hundred and one. Imperial
The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace, and the two of them helped them get out of the car, Mu Jing and Mu Yue stayed in the mansion, and now as long as there is an occasion for Wulai and these people to appear, Shen Yue will not take the two children out.
The father-in-law at the door was very familiar with Shen Yue, and saluted Shen Yue, and then saw the unfamiliar faces beside Shen Yue, and did not look up and down, but also saluted, and then let the little eunuch beside him lead them in.
This time, the venue was open-air, but a few sheds were built in the Imperial Garden, where people could sit and eat snacks and drink tea.
When Shen Yue and Xu Yingying arrived, there were already many people standing or sitting there, all of whom were in their fifteen or sixteen to twenty years old, and the concubines in the palace also came, and the queen was sitting on the main seat, she relied on Shen Yue's medicinal diet during the confinement, and now she is recovering very well, and her complexion is also very ruddy.
Shen Yue directly pulled Xu Yingying in front of the queen, and the two of them saluted in a proper manner, and the queen smiled: "This is Miss Xu who the six princes often talk about, right?" β
"It's a folk girl." Xu Yingying lowered her head and replied.
"He was born well, and he was a blessed man." The Empress had a gentle smile on her face.
"Thank you, Queen, for the compliment." Xu Yingying said.
"Sit down, don't be so restrained, just like Yue'er, treat this place as your home." Queen's Road.
Xu Yingying nodded, the queen was so gentle, which made her originally restrained mood a little better.
"Sister-in-law, didn't your stepmother come?" Shen Yue asked.
"When the queen mother said that we young people were in the activities, she would not participate in them, lest we not have enough fun." The queen said with a smile.
Shen Yue nodded, this was indeed like what the Queen Mother said.
At this time, Lu Guifei came over and also greeted Shen Yue, and then gently pulled her future daughter-in-law to say a few words, and finally let them play by themselves.
After leaving the queen and Concubine Lu Guifei, Xu Yingying patted her chest with palpitations: "How do you talk to them every day, just say a few words, I feel that I am almost exhausted." β
"It's good to get used to it, there will be many such scenes in the future, you have to practice hard." Shen Yue said with a smile.
Xu Yingying pouted, then looked at the food on the side, and her eyes lit up.
This time, the banquet was organized by Xinyue Pavilion, using a self-service mode, the table was full of cakes and drinks, as well as all kinds of snacks, if you want to eat, you can take the plate to get it, these pastries are made from the dim sum shop of Xinyue Pavilion, and the drinks are also, there are freshly squeezed juices, as well as milk tea and some other drinks specially made by Shen Yue.
These are undoubtedly very popular with everyone, but after all, today's theme is a blind date meeting for young men and women, so you can see many men and women chatting together, and the blind date in this world is still very conservative, and there is a certain distance between men and women chatting.
Shen Yue and Xu Yingying are both famous flowers, so although many men saw that their eyes lit up and they didn't dare to step forward without permission, Shen Yue and Xu Yingying were also happy to eat snacks on the side, while observing these men and women.
"I've never been to a blind date like this, and it doesn't look very interesting now, but the dim sum is delicious." Xu Yingying said while eating pastries.
"This time it's mainly for Princess Ulai to choose a husband, these are all foils, naturally it's boring, and it will be interesting for the protagonist to appear later." Shen Yue took a sip of peach juice.
As he was talking, he saw Princess Ulai and Prince Uru walk in from the direction of the door.
Ulai had a shy smile on his face, and Uru was gentle and polite, like a gentleman.
Their appearance naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Ulai's appearance still deceived many people, and many men began to gather around and talk to Ulai, who was shy and easily maneuvered between the men, and Ulu talked to a little girl with a blushing face.
"Yingying, look, Cao Cao Cao has arrived." After speaking, Xu Yingying next to her didn't react, she looked at Ulu's back and was slightly stunned.
"What's wrong?" Shen Yue asked.
"Yue'er, I... I seem to have seen it, this Uru prince. Xu Yingying muttered.
"Where have you seen it?" Shen Yue frowned.
"I don't know, I just think he feels very familiar to me, as if he was the one who kidnapped me that day." Xu Yingying's face turned a little pale.
"Are you sure?" Shen Yue asked.
"I'm not sure, but the man resembles him." Xu Yingying also frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Shen Yue was almost sure that it was Ulu who kidnapped Xu Yingying that day, but he didn't know what method they used to put their sins on the heads of others.
"We can't act rashly, now that they have cleared their incrimination, if we chase them, we will be bitten back." Shen Yue said.
Xu Yingying lowered her head for a long time before she nodded, but her hands were still tightly clenched.
Shen Yue held her hand and silently comforted, Xu Yingying raised her head and smiled at her.
Over there, Ulai had already moved away from the crowd and walked over.
"Princess, Miss Xu." Ulai said with a smile.
"Why did Princess Ulai come here, today is your home field, you should go and get to know more men." Shen Yue said.
Ullay smiled, "These men are very good, but I really have a hard time making a choice, so come and ask the princess to help me take a look." β
Xu Yingying stood behind, her face was very ugly, she didn't like this woman, especially knowing that she was still thinking about the six princes, and even went to ask for a decree, she didn't like it even more.
"Miss Xu, aren't you still angry with me, I'm actually unintentional, I didn't know that the sixth prince had a fiancΓ©e, and I knew that the heart of the sixth prince was in you, so I didn't go to him again." Ulai blinked, as if he was still quite aggrieved.
Xu Yingying sneered and only said, "Really? β
"Princess, Miss Xu doesn't forgive me, what do you think?" Ulai seemed genuinely distressed.
Shen Yue watched her act, and then said: "Yingying is this temper, maybe Princess Wulai didn't cast her eyes, and this can't be forced." β
Shen Yue said it more tactfully, but you are going to rob someone's fiancΓ©, how polite do people have to be to you? Shen Yue didn't believe that Ulai didn't know about the Six Princes and Xu Yingying.
Wu Lai was not angry, and did not continue the topic, but pulled Shen Yue, who seemed to be very affectionate: "Princess, look, which man here is better?" β
Shen Yue glanced at her, and seeing that she seemed to really want to ask this question, she thought for a while and said, "It's good that Princess Wulai likes it, our appreciation points are different, so naturally we can't help you decide which man is better." β
Ulai tilted his head: "Really? But I think it's very temperamental with the princess. β
Shen Yue smiled and didn't answer.
After talking for a while, a son came over and invited Ulai to have a drink, and Ulai happily agreed and said goodbye to Shen Yue and Xu Yingying.
As soon as he sent Ulai away, Ulu appeared again, he walked up to Shen Yue and smiled very gently, but Shen Yue sensed a hint of danger.
"The princess is here today, too." Ulu said with a smile, then glanced at Xu Yingying, "Miss Xu." β
Xu Yingying's body trembled, Shen Yue held her hand, Ulu seemed to smile more happily, but said on her lips: "What's wrong with Miss Xu?" Is it a little cold? β
Shen Yue didn't have time to deal with him, so he said, "It's a little cold, I'll take her to change her clothes." Saying that, he left with a calm face.
"Okay, the road is a little slippery, you guys be careful." Uru commanded behind him.
Shen Yue and Xu Yingying didn't look back.
Shen Yue took Xu Yingying to the Millennium Palace, the Queen Mother was resting, Shen Yue asked Aunt Lan to prepare a room for her, she took Xu Yingying in to rest, Aunt Lan agreed with a smile, and soon, the room was ready, and Shen Yue pulled Xu Yingying and walked in.
Aunt Lan is very careful, and there is a stove in the room, so you can feel very warm as soon as you enter.
After doing it for a while, Xu Yingying's hand slowly warmed up.
"Yue'er, am I useless." Xu Yingying's voice was a little low, when she was in a good mood, she liked to call Shen Yue's full name, and when she was in a bad mood, she liked to call Yue'er.
"How come, everyone has something to be afraid of, you are not special, I am also afraid, I used to learn to cook, the master in the kitchen, very powerful, will scold people at every turn, I have always been afraid of him, and I am still very afraid when I think about it." Shen Yue said, she said a master she met in her last life, this master is an old man with a strange temper, but he is very famous in the food industry, and his education method is also very unique, he has to study a new dish every day, and then when he takes it to him to taste, he will be scolded by him for being bloody, worthless, but in this teaching mode, what he brought out under his subordinates are all very powerful chefs, and Shen Yue's mother once sent Shen Yue there to study for a period of time, She had learned a good cooking skill with her mother at that time, but she was still scolded very badly, she was not convinced at first, and then slowly, she knew such benefits, and then she really learned, but it didn't take long to learn, the master had a serious illness, and then retired, and there was no legend of him in the food world.
Listening to Shen Yue tell her stories, she felt that she was slowly not so scared, and the temperature of her body had warmed up.
"Yue'er, thank you, I'm not so scared anymore, I should face it, not retreat, I don't think I'm like me now, who am I, I'm Xu Yingying." Xu Yingying's voice carried a hint of confidence.
Shen Yue smiled: "That's right, this is the Xu Yingying I know."
The two stayed in the room for a while, and Aunt Lan came over, saying that the Queen Mother had woken up, knew that they were here, and invited them to come over to talk.
Xu Yingying's face changed: "Mom, I want to see the Queen Mother, Shen Yue, take a look, am I neatly dressed?" What about hair? Hair messy? β
Shen Yue felt a little funny: "It's all good, no problem, let's go." β
They walked into the queen mother's bedroom, the queen mother just got up, drank a cup of health tea, and felt that she was in good spirits, Shen Yue didn't have to kneel and salute, but considering Xu Yingying, she still knelt down and gave the queen mother a salute.
"Get up, you kid, why are you so polite today, it's not like this usual." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
"This is Xiaoliu's daughter-in-law, she is really a symbol of beauty, no wonder Xiaoliu is crying and making trouble to marry home." The Queen Mother smiled.
Xu Yingying dared to raise her head and glance at the Queen Mother, feeling that the Queen Mother was just an old lady who looked better dressed, and it was not so scary.
"You all sit down, the Imperial Garden is very lively today, why don't you go to play, but come to my old woman." The Queen Mother asked.
"Mother-in-law, the garden is not fun, so we came to talk to my mother-in-law, I didn't think that my mother-in-law was taking a nap, we didn't want to disturb, so we baked a fire next to it, it was too cold outside today." Shen Yue said.
