Yao Luo and the others know that the fourth princess has always been very generous, and they say that they are thin, but they are definitely not thin, it must be a generous reward, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy.

In fact, the amount of money is secondary, the key is this face. Even if the princess only rewards a silver hairpin, in the future, they will put this hairpin on their heads, and they can say to people lightly, "This is the gift of the four princesses", do others dare not look down on them? Even if you want to bully people, you have to weigh the severity, right?

Yun Luo came in with a little palace maid from outside, the little palace maid was carrying a bucket in her hand, which contained clean cups and saucers, the bucket was not light, and it was hot outside, and her face was sweaty.

Liu Yan asked, "What is this girl's name?" ”

Yun Luo tugged at her: "Don't go back to the princess soon." ”

The little palace maid was a little panicked and saluted: "If you go back to the princess, the slave maid's name is Needle." ”

Yun Luo said: "Princess, her name is quite interesting, it is not the treasure of the pearl baby, nor is it the true or false, it is the needle of the needle." ”

"Oh, how can it be called that? Do you do a good job of needlework? ”

This time everyone else in the tent laughed.

"No, her name is Needle, because when she entered the palace, she was so thin that no one looked like her, and Shang Gong, who was in charge of these little palace maids at the time, felt that she was not much thicker than a needle, so he gave her this name by the way."

Liu Yan felt that this little girl was quite pitiful, and she could tell how thin she was at that time.

"How old are you? Where is the home? What was the original surname? ”

As a result, none of these three questions could be answered.

She didn't know how old she was, she couldn't remember where her home was, or what her original last name was. According to Yun Luo, she remembered that her mother died, and then she sold it to human teeth, and she didn't remember anything about the family.

"Well, it's pathetic, too."

Yun Luo hurriedly said: "Her life was not good before, but now that she has arrived in Yilan Palace, her life is much better." ”

Needle Er herself nodded busily: "It is a great blessing for slaves and maids to serve the queen, and the sisters are good to slaves and maids, they can eat well and have clothes to wear." ”

Liu Yan didn't say much, just asked Gui Yuan to take a pair of silver earrings to reward her.

These small things used to reward people are usually managed by Guiyuan, and she now carries several things in her purse.

Touching it in the purse, Longan took out a pair of thin twisted silver hooks and rewarded this needle.

This pair of white fungus hooks is too thin, not much thicker than the thread, and it is so light that it can float on the water, and it is conceivably worthless.

It's not that Guiyuan looks down on needles and doesn't want to give her a big reward, it's not that she's stingy and reluctant to give up these things.

This needle is still just a little palace maid, and it is not her turn to serve the master, but she just lays down her hands to run errands for the big palace maid, like she is now, she can't keep any good things for her. Of course, Yun Luo and a few people will not take a fancy to the little reward she gets, but not everyone in Yilan Hall can be so generous.

This pair of white fungus hooks is so worthless that no one will look at it.

But no matter how small things are, they are also rewarded by the princess, which is also face.

The needle thanked the reward, and Liu Yan stretched: "There is another horse race this afternoon, right?" The queen mother doesn't go to see it? ”

Yao Luo smiled and said: "Eighty percent of the mother is not going, the sun is big today, don't go to the princess, beware of sunburn." ”

Sunburn won't happen, but she didn't come until it got dark yesterday, and Queen Cao didn't let her out today.

But Liu Yan also has a way.

She went to tell Queen Cao: "I don't look closer, but I can't see clearly when I'm close, and when the horse runs, it is dusty, and when I get close, it will be dusty." ”

Empress Cao smiled and asked, "Then what do you want to think?" ”

"I'll go to the hillside east of the camp to see, it's high enough to see clearly, and it's still far away from the crowd, quiet."

Liu Wen on the side also helped her speak: "Niangniang, I can't usually see such a bustle of horse racing in the palace, and I also want to follow the fourth aunt to have a look." ”

Since both of them said so, Queen Cao didn't stop her, but just told her not to run away, and to be careful not to bump into it.

Liu Yan felt a little strange.

If what was said just now was said by someone else, then there is nothing abnormal, after all, I have been bored in the tent for a long time, how can a half-grown child not be annoyed? It's better to go out and watch a horse race than to stay in a tent and copy lists.

But Liu Wen is not quite the same as ordinary children, not to mention how old she has become in the past two years, she has no vitality at all, she does not look like a child at all, she is old-fashioned.

Sure enough, after walking a few steps out of the camp, Liu Qi said: "Fourth aunt, I drank too much water just now, go to the back first, fourth aunt doesn't have to wait for me, just go first." ”

Liu Yan always felt that she didn't want to be convenient.

But what does she have to do in circles and hide it from others?

In other words, Liu Yan doesn't care about her idle affairs, Liu Wen, this kid is thoughtful, and no one says anything when he has something to hide.

But this is in the paddock, not in the palace, and Liu Yan is a little uneasy.

She turned her head and instructed Lianzi: "You serve the county lord, go and come back quickly." ”

Lianzi answered.

The palace people beside her, Lianzi are both careful and clever, what Liu Yan's command means, Lianzi must understand.

Liu Wen said: "No need, there are people around me to serve ......"

Liu Yan said: "I'm afraid that you won't be able to find us when you turn around, so go quickly." ”

Lianzi also stood beside Liu Wen, and said very respectfully: "The slave and maid must serve the county lord well." ”

Well, listening to her words, you know that she understands what Liu Yan means.

Serving or not serving is secondary, the key is to look at this county lord, don't cause any trouble.

Liu Yan said that he wanted to watch the horse race, but in fact, it didn't matter if he watched it or not, just go out for a walk and blow the wind and scatter his heart.

As for horse racing...... Most of this depends on whether the horse is good or not, and the remaining half is mostly not riding.

When he came to hunt in the past, Liu Yan remembered that the second emperor brother once won the first place in a horse race, and at that time he didn't have so many bad deeds, and he looked heroic, but now it is not as good as it was back then.

In fact, even when he won the first place, Liu Yan later heard from Cousin Cao that he was let by others. Don't mention others, let's just say that among the internal guards, there are not a few people with outstanding riding skills, and if you compare with him seriously, it's impossible to say whether the second emperor brother can get the top five.

Now the second emperor brother is addicted to wine, and he is not interested in riding a bow horse at all, even if someone still wants him, it can't be too obvious.

"Little brother shouldn't be playing today, right?"

Doutang hurriedly said: "Yes, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince said today that he was going to Yinyue Lake to enjoy the scenery, and he would definitely not play." ”

It's nice to go to enjoy the scenery, but the little brother's legs can't be played.
