They are all good materials, with bright colors and luster, which makes people a little dizzying.

Mama Wang said with a smile: "This is the silk offered this year, and after sending it to the queen mother to choose, it was sent to the county lord, and the county lord said that she would let the princess pick it first. ”

Yu Ying stretched out her hand to stroke the material, and the touch was delicate, but it was still a little worse than Yuyun's.

Yu Ying picked a slightly inconspicuous color, and smiled at Mama Wang: "I think this piece is very good, and I ask Mama to treat me and thank my aunt." ”

"The eldest lady is polite, the imperial concubine has been instructed by a thousand times, if you want the young lady to pick it well, why don't you pick another one?"

Yu Ying turned to look at Zhong Ling and asked, "Qiu Niang, do you have any favorite materials?" ”

Zhong Ling was about to refuse, but he heard Mama Wang speak: "Miss Shen, there will be a banquet in a few days, and the daughters in the imperial city will come at that time. ”

Zhong Ling thought about it, she was following Yu Ying now, if she made a fool of herself, she would still lose the face of the imperial concubine, nodded, and looked at the cloth.

Yu Ying pointed to one of the cloud-pink horses and said to Zhong Ling: "You have white skin, this color is very good for you, it is better to just this one!" ”

Zhong Ling has never been particular about dressing, so when he heard this, he nodded and responded, "Then I'll listen to you." ”

"I also asked the two young ladies to measure the size with the old slave, and with the size, the embroidery girls will start working!" Mama Wang ordered the palace maids with the cloth to retreat and pick up the soft ruler in the tray.

After measuring the size, he didn't stay long, Zhong Ling watched Mama Wang lead people away, closed the door with his hands, and pulled Yu Ying to sit down.

He asked aloud, "Did the imperial concubine mention the banquet in front of you?" ”

"I didn't mention it." Yu Ying shook her head.

Zhong Ling looked at Yu Ying's slightly frowning brows, his suspicion became heavier, he poured a glass of water and handed it to Yu Ying, and advised: "If the imperial concubine asks you to leave me alone to see her alone in the past few days, you must remember to tell me." ”

"Little Five!" Yu Ying grabbed Zhong Ling's hand, her body trembled uncontrollably, and she bit her lip to look at her: "That's my aunt, will it really harm me?" ”

Zhong Ling smiled comfortingly at her: "You also know that I have been leading soldiers to fight all these years, the so-called soldiers are not tired of cheating, and they always have to be more attentive in everything, you just think about me crankily, it is not a bad thing to keep more minds." ”

Yu Ying nodded, her heart couldn't calm down for a long time, and she only felt that her heart was in turmoil.

In the next two days, Mama Wang never asked Yu Ying to go again, but the two princes tried to come here, especially Qi'er, he seemed to like Yu Ying's sister very much, and she always had to leave a copy for her if there was anything delicious and fun, and Zhong Ling was also liked by the little doll because he saved his life, and most of the time was spent with the child, but it would not be boring.

On the third day, it was Mama Wang who led Qi'er, and the clothes were already ready at that time.

I knocked on the door.

Yu Ying opened the door, saluted Mama Wang, bent down to pick up Qi'er, and walked into the room.

"What delicious food did Qi'er bring to her sister today?"

"The five princes are thinking about Miss, and remember to bring a copy of the puff pastry duck made in the small kitchen today!" Mama Wang smiled and put down the food box in her hand.

Yu Ying smiled and pinched Qi'er's little fat face: "It's not in vain that my sister hurts you like this!" ”

"The two young ladies might as well try whether this dress fits first, there are still a few days left for the banquet, if there is anything inappropriate, it is still too late to change it now." Mama Wang very attentively stuffed the skirt into Yu Ying's hand.

Zhong Ling lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "I won't try, you are the focus of the banquet, and it doesn't matter if there is anything inappropriate, you should let the embroidery girl stick to you!" ”

Zhong Ling's "sensible" made Mama Wang extremely useful, and her face showed a little satisfaction, Zhong Ling couldn't help but feel ironic in her eyes, Yu Ying, who was at a loss, still remembered the family relationship between her and this aunt, but this imperial concubine had already written her purpose on her face, and only Yu Ying, a stupid girl, couldn't see it.

Mama Wang smiled at Yu Ying and said, "Miss, go and try it!" ”

Most women love beauty, and Yu Ying's escape is full of wind and dust, so naturally she has no leisure to buy clothes, and the clothes that are made at this moment are placed in front of her, and she is naturally happy.

Yu Ying picked it up and made a circle on herself, and asked Zhong Lingdao, "Does this color line me?" ”

"This color is comfortable, you are the most suitable to wear, if you want me to see, the cloud pink you chose for me that day is also very suitable for you, why don't you try it together, let me see!" Zhong Ling proposed with great interest.

They are similar in shape, and Yu Ying can also wear the clothes made for Zhong Ling, and Mama Wang called two palace maids to help Yu Ying go to the inner room to change clothes.

Only Zhong Ling and Qi Er were left in the main hall.

The villain leaned next to Zhong Ling, and suddenly said, "The banquet that Mama said is a banquet with many good-looking sisters?"

Zhong Ling mourned in his heart, bent down to look at Qi'er, and said with a smile: "What was the banquet like in previous years?" ”

"There will be many sisters at the banquet, and they will perform their talents in front of their fathers, and when the banquet is over, some of them will enter the palace and live with us."

Children are the most unguarded, and they will know everything about you just by asking.

Zhong Ling's eyes sank, and he heard Qi Er's immature voice ringing in his ears again.

"Sister Qiu Niang, Qi Er doesn't like that banquet, and she doesn't like those sisters living with us, when they enter the palace, my father doesn't often come to see Qi Niang."

Qi Er is still young and doesn't understand the meaning of competing for favor, Zhong Ling reached out and rubbed his head, and said softly: "Qi Er, don't worry, the status of those sisters will never go beyond you." ”

"Really?" The little doll was a little unconvinced.

"Nature is true."

Zhong Ling secretly thought, there are countless women in the harem, Chu

There may be freshness from time to time, but as time goes by, it will inevitably be boring, to put it bluntly, those are just tools used by the emperor to pass on the ancestry, where is the little prince in front of him who is pleasing to people.

Yu Ying had already changed her clothes and walked out with Mama Wang, the lilac gauze skirt lined her graceful figure, she was already born well, not to mention that she was still young, just a little dress up to dominate the crowd.

Qi Er smiled when she saw her, and pounced on her to take Yu Ying's hand.

"My sister is much better looking than those sisters who have entered the palace, if my sister stays in the palace, Qi'er will be happy!"

Mama Wang on the side was already smiling from ear to ear, and said to Yu Ying: "The fifth prince really likes you, Miss!" ”

Yu Ying also smiled, squatted down and took Qi'er's hand and asked, "Are you talking about those sisters?" ”

"There will be a lot of sisters entering the palace at the banquet, and when my sister sees them, she will know that what Qi Er said is true, and Qi Er will never lie to her sister!" The villain swore to his mouth.

Yu Ying didn't think about it, looked up at Zhong Ling, and asked, "I really look good when I wear this?" ”

"Beautiful!" Zhong Ling nodded lightly, smiling a little reluctantly.

It seems that the imperial concubine is going to take action on the day of the banquet, if she is really allowed to succeed, then she will lose this likable sister-in-law, I am afraid that she can agree, but her third brother will not agree.

Yu Ying tried the cloud-pink skirt again, and Mama Wang carefully told her before leaving with Qi'er.

After sending them away, Yu Ying returned to the house and opened the food box, the aroma of puff pastry duck filled the entire main hall, Yu Ying beckoned to Zhong Ling: "Xiao Wu, come and taste it!" ”

"I'm thinking about it, it's better for you not to go to this banquet." Zhong Ling was preoccupied.

Yu Ying raised her head, a little surprised: "Mama Wang told me that this banquet is not trivial, it is a state banquet once a year, and I must pay attention to it, otherwise I will lose my aunt's face, I thought you would support me to go, why can't I go to this banquet?" ”

"Mama Wang said that the people who came to the banquet were all nobles from the city, think about it carefully, what is such a banquet set up when you are forgiving the clouds?" Zhong Ling's eyes were gloomy.

Yu Ying lowered her head, and the hall was silent for a moment.

Zhong Ling sighed lightly: "She is your aunt, I know that she is very important to you, but you have to understand that people will become, let alone in this royal family." ”

"But she is the little aunt who grew up with me, except for my father, she is the person who loves me the most." Yu Ying clutched the hem of her clothes.

"Maybe I'm thinking too much, if she really has such a will, I'll have to reveal a little bit to you in the next few days, and wait." Zhong Ling's gaze was remote.

The imperial concubine's movements were faster than she thought, but on the second day, they showed signs of it.

First, Qi'er was clamoring for Yu Ying to accompany him to the lake, Zhong Ling had a heart, and deliberately followed them, and sure enough, he met the emperor by the pool.

If Zhong Ling is not there, it will be

It's going to be a solitude for the two of them.

From this day on, the appearance of the emperor has been somewhat pervasive, and I don't know whether it was the imperial concubine's intentional arrangement or the emperor's intention, no matter which one it was, it was always not reassuring.

In the end, Yu Ying simply stopped going out, but fortunately, Qi'er was young and coaxed, and took him to play something else, so he left the imperial concubine's advice behind.

If you can't do anything, you always have to think of something else.

Now there is a queen in this palace, but the queen is not in good health, the harem has the rules of the harem, every three days the palace concubines have to go to the queen mother to say hello, after saying goodbye, they should only go to the queen's palace, but the queen is not in good health, and this errand falls on the head of the imperial concubine.

Taking advantage of the palaces to greet the queen mother, Mama Wang came to the house and asked Yu Ying to see the imperial concubine.

The events of the past few days have gradually become traceable, Yu Ying bit her lip and turned to look at Zhong Ling.

Zhong Ling got up and said, "Let's go, I'll go with you." ”

The two walked outside the door, and Mama Wang glanced at Zhong Ling, her smile a little stiff.

"Miss Shen, the county lord has some considerate words that he wants to say to Miss alone."

The meaning of this is already clear, that is, she is not to be asked to follow.

However, she underestimated Zhong Ling, she had never been an ordinary thin-skinned girl, and she just smiled indifferently when she heard the words, but she didn't understand.
