Chapter 43: A Guest at the Palace
Shengqing Mansion is located in the most prosperous part of East Street. Soft sedans and horse-drawn carriages filled the entire road.
As soon as the carriage in which Gan Peilin and his party were riding arrived at the entrance of the alley, a steward cleared the road neatly and led it directly to the gate of the mansion.
"Your Highness really values my sister." Mo Chuxue smiled gently: "Send a carriage to pick it up in person, and there will be a special person to open the way, and we will also follow it." ”
Gan Jilu's face was faintly bad, and she said in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense." How bad it is for people to hear. ”
Gan Peilin's gaze naturally fell on the two stone lions carved from white jade at the door. The lion is majestic and magnificent, and it is a gift from the emperor when he was there.
There are also guards in military uniforms by the vermilion lacquer door, showing the unique dignity and majesty of the royal family.
Mo Chuxue got out of the carriage first. Gan Jilu followed Gan Peilin and got off the car from the other side.
The housekeeper greeted him warmly, and his tone was respectful: "Say hello to the three young ladies." His Highness is waiting in the hall, letting the servants lead the way for the young ladies. ”
"I'm tired." Gan Peilin smiled slightly, gentle and calm, and his luxurious temperament was inadvertently revealed.
Gan Jilu and Mo Chuxue looked at her in a daze, always feeling that she was different from them.
"Miss, long time no see."
Before entering the courtyard, Ao Yu led the three brothers of the Ao family to greet him. If it weren't for receiving King Shengqing's post, Gan Peilin would really have thought that he had entered Ao Mansion again. This feeling made her slightly unhappy, and her face sank.
Ao Xuan first looked at her lilac belt. The belt is decorated with an excellent mutton fat jade ring, and the technique of beating the rope is exactly the same as the butterfly jade pendant in Jiang Yu's hand.
Damn Jiang Yu! A sour anger surged into his heart, and the butterfly jade pendant in his hand was really hers.
"A few Ao Gongzi are polite." Gan Peilin returned the gift decently, neither warm nor alienated.
It was this faint suppleness that made Ao Yu more interested: "It's difficult for the eldest lady to go out of the house, but you have to have fun." ”
Gan Peilin lowered his head with warm eyes and did not say anything more. I never glanced at Ao Xuan.
This made Ao Xuan very unhappy. I finally saved her, and she was so cold to him.
"You go get busy first, I'll show the way for the eldest lady." Ao Min, who had been silent, sent the housekeeper away and walked to Gan Peilin's side.
"Sister Peilin, we meet again." Ao Min's tone was familiar, as if he had seen an old man.
Gan Peilin looked at him sideways, and said suspiciously: "When have we met?" ”
Ao Min snorted lightly, and a slightly hot light flashed in his eyes: "You haven't seen me, I've seen you several times." ”
His smile is extraordinarily warm, and it will inexplicably make people want to be close. Gan Peilin followed him inside, afraid that he would be like before, and suddenly called her "little sister-in-law".
Fortunately, Ao Min just said something without a match.
Gan Jilu and Mo Chuxue have completely become Gan Peilin's foils. No matter who they meet, people's eyes are naturally focused on Gan Peilin.
"Sister." Mo Chuxue smiled faintly, and her tone was slightly cold: "The concubines of Ganfu are not only Sister Peilin. ”
"What do you want to say?" Gan Jilu glanced at her quickly, and returned to her usual gentle expression.
Mo Chuxue curled the corners of her lips meaningfully: "You shouldn't bow your head to her and show weakness." ”
"Just do what your mother tells you." Gan Ji showed the frost on the corners of her lips, and turned her face unhappily: "You don't have to worry about my affairs." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, a servant raised her voice and spread it, and most of them were overseered.
"The Governor is here." Gan Jilu instantly showed a smile: "It's really lively now." ”
