The mist is thinning, the condensation is half dry, the morning light is pouring in the two fresh-clothed girls hand in hand through the stone path in the garden, the suffix a team of palace people are also tending, the older girl in yellow is at a good age, honey-colored skin and long eyebrows and sharp eyes are very spiritual, a little more flamboyant and neat than the average girl, the smaller girl is not as good as cardamom, the body is slender and beautiful, it seems that the new lotus is first revealed, but she wears a warm red dress, and the face is thin with grease powder, so as not to lose the color by this bright clothes.

On the left-hand side of the path came a brocade-clothed young man, the golden crown and jade belt were heroic, the two sides met at the sandwich road, the palace people saluted each other, the younger girls also saluted their cousins, the older two looked at each other and smiled, the girl in yellow greeted each other: "Do you also go to say hello to your aunt?" Let's go together. ”

Brother Ye smiled, and joined his cousin's team, and on the way Chaoyang said to him: "This is Sister Ling, you probably don't remember her, in the future, she will live in the palace for a long time, you take care of her more, don't let her be bullied by the second princess." ”

Brother Ye glanced at the timid Sister Ling, and had some impressions, I saw it in the imperial tomb yesterday.

"Of course I remember, it's the daughter of my aunt, but I haven't seen it much, and I will live in the palace in the future, so I will naturally get it often."

In the end, I don't know if it was said to Chaoyang or to Sister Ling, Sister Ling lowered her head and didn't dare to respond, Chaoyang responded on her behalf, "If it's common, you have to care for it often." ”

Brother Ye said: "I'm still taking care of it naturally, but I can't live in this palace for long, you should ask your eldest brother to take care of it." ”

Chaoyang said: "The prince's cousin has a lot of opportunities, how dare I trouble him." ”

"You say this as if I were an idler."

Chaoyang said: "No matter who of you is idle or busy, whoever is free will look at her a few more times, with the two of you covered, no one will dare to bully her." ”

Brother Ye should go down, and when he passed by the Taiye Pond, he saw that the lotus flowers in the pool were blooming well, so he asked people to pick two of them, one blooming one for Chaoyang, and one for Sister Ling, and said: "The big girl takes the big flowers, the little girl takes the small flowers, go back and find a bottle with some water and plug it in, you can raise it for a few days!" ”

Chaoyang sneered at him: "Virtue! Do you see who sends flowers to such a bare one, the girls around me pick flowers with branches and leaves wrapped in flowers and pick a handful, and they look good when they are plugged in! ”

Brother Ye said that flowers and trees also have love, picking one is too enjoyable, and it can't be served in a pot, picking a bald piece here and a piece less there, and his own house is decorated, and the flower admirers next to him have to go home in defeat?

Sister Ling listened to her cousin's quarrel with her cousin, and felt that they had a really good relationship, although her cousin had no siblings, everyone liked her, she was really a happy girl.

A few sisters laughed along the way to pick a flower and throw a stone, originally went out early, delayed on the road for a while, when they arrived at Kunyi Palace, everyone had come, the queen came out, gossiping with the concubines and the emperor's children, Brother Ye came over, the queen had a light in her eyes, beckoned them to sit down, let them drink some flower tea, early in the morning, they didn't drink cold drinks.

The queen asked them if they had breakfast, Brother Ye said that they had eaten, Chaoyang said that he had no appetite when he got up early and didn't want to eat, Sister Ling drank a bowl of porridge, Chaoyang felt that she could be full of bird food, but Sister Ling said that she only ate these every day when she was in the imperial tomb, Chaoyang said that it was no wonder she was so thin, now is the time to grow her body, she can't eat less, let her eat more slowly, and they can go to ask for peace later.

The queen said: "The day is in the morning, how can you do it without breakfast, you are all growing children, you can't be hungry, I will let the kitchen make some, you eat some pastries to cushion your stomach." ”

Chaoyang wanted to say that there was no need to bother, and felt that she should be hungry in a while, so let's wait, and listened to my aunt ask Sister Ling: "Was it comfortable to live with your cousin yesterday?" Recently, there have been a lot of things, I forgot to give you a room first, let the palace people take care of it today, your mother was in the boudoir when she lived in the Pearl Pavilion, and now it is still empty, so I will leave it to you to live, you will also go over in the afternoon to see, if there is anything to add and move, although the palace people are sent to move. ”

Sister Ling didn't understand the layout of the princess's house, she only knew that Cousin Chaoyang lived in the courtyard where her aunt was in the boudoir, so she should have lived in her mother's former yard, so she responded obediently.

This can ignite the anger of several princesses, the Pearl Pavilion is the most exquisite and magnificent house of the princess, listen to the name and know, live in this room must be the emperor's palm pearl, the most favored princess can live, of course, the previous dynasties are for the princess of the palace to live, there is no princess in this dynasty, they several princesses want to fight for this breath, before the father said that the eldest aunt still lives in the palace, can not vacate the pearl pavilion for them to live, now the eldest aunt is gone, this courtyard has been vacant for many years, it should be their turn, The queen arranged for Sister Ling to live in, if it was the aunt's mother and daughter, it would be enough, an adopted daughter who came halfway, no name and no point, why did she live in the Pearl Pavilion, did she know that there was a word called dove occupying the magpie's nest!

They didn't dare to disobey the queen's order, so they squeezed Sister Ling a few words and asked her: "Cousin Ling's clothes today are bright, but the color seems to be the style of a few years ago, won't the eldest aunt make you new clothes?" ”

Sister Ling tugged at her sleeves and pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, and whispered: "I did it, but they are all plain clothes, and now it is out of the filial piety period, it is not good to wear those anymore, this is my cousin's previous clothes, I borrowed them first." ”

As soon as the queen wanted to speak, the second princess quickly cut off her beard: "Chaoyang, this is your mistake, how can you give your old clothes to your cousin?" You take so many materials every year, can't you make a few pieces of new clothes for your cousin? ”

Chaoyang rolled his eyes, "Don't you need time to make new clothes out of fabric?" She only found out this morning that she had no clothes to wear, we were in a hurry to come to ask for peace, and we gave her one to deal with first, don't you just say that you don't practice, didn't your ex-uncle and aunt divide the batch of materials to make new clothes for you? At that time, I didn't know that Sister Ling was coming back, and she should have left a copy for her, so let's move a copy from you and give it to her! ”

These cousins are a few of you, and I am a quick one, it seems that the queen's aunt is incompetent, and the niece whose parents are not there comes to stay at home, and there is no house, and there are no clothes, so she wants to live with her cousin, wear her cousin's old clothes, and she is also the child of the first emperor's lineage, so she is not the daughter of the lord of Muhui, and her reputation is not bad, and they are criticized for being slow.

"What Chaoyang said is reasonable, I forgot that Sister Ling was coming back, and now that she is here, I will allow a few horses of material from your hands, don't be reluctant, there will be new materials in the future."

The second princess was indignant, and she also took a lot of materials from Chaoyang last time, why let them out! Concubine Fan grabbed her daughter, motioned her to stop talking, and said to the queen with a smile: "Go back and let the palace people pick them out, I also have a few rulers there, they are too bright for my age to wear, and let people give them to Miss Ling together." ”

Sister Ling said cautiously: "Niang Niang is in her prime, no matter how bright the clothes are, your good things are left to the second cousin, I am growing taller, and I can't wear too many clothes in the next year, so it's a waste." ”

Fan Guifei said: "Your cousin's clothes are enough, you just came back, everything has to be done, take it." ”

What she said, as if Sister Ling was shabby, was a pitiful insect, only the queen knew how thick Sister Ling's net worth was, the first emperor's private house was equally divided between the two daughters, His Majesty didn't get anything, the queen mother's private room was all given to the county lord of Mu Hui, the county lord of Mu Hui left Beijing and traveled, mostly with cash, those clothes, jewelry, calligraphy and painting ornaments are all stored in the county lord's mansion and Shoukang Palace, and in the future, it is not all Sister Ling's, the county lord's mansion has been uninhabited for many years and guarded by guards, and no one dares to set foot in Shoukang Palace, these things are all in place.
