Chapter 96: Instead
"The ninth brother hasn't seen a child until now," Zhou Ziqin touched Zhou Ling'an's little face, "Our little Duke An Yi will remember that your father is the last to see you." When the time comes, you will pull his hair hard. ”
Zhou Lingan didn't know if he understood, waving a pair of small hands, and his smiling eyes narrowed together.
Yan Lingyue said with a smile, "In two months, presumably the Nine Emperor Princes will be able to come back." ”
"I'm afraid that the ninth brother will already be like an arrow," Zhou Ziyan said, took out a bag from his arms and put it on the table, "This is a meeting gift for the little princess Anyi, and I hope the younger brothers and sisters will not dislike it." ”
Yan Lingyue opened the bag, and inside was a long-life lock made of pure gold, "This...... Isn't it a bit expensive? ”
Zhou Ziqin listened to it and laughed, "That brother and sister are inevitably too underestimating the sixth brother, a long-life lock is just a long-life lock, the younger brother and sister are just a hundred thousand, and the sixth brother can also take it." ”
"The third brother said with a smile," Zhou Ziyan curled his lips and said to Yan Lingyue, "Brother and sister, hurry up and accept it for Princess An Yi." ”
"You're welcome to Yue'er," Yan Lingyue waved her hand to beckon Qiushuang and handed her the bag, "Put it in the cabinet at the head of my bed, and put it on for her when the little princess is older." ”
"Yes," Qiu Shuang took the longevity lock with both hands and retreated.
When the person arrived, the meeting ceremony also arrived, Zhou Ziyan sat for a while, and then got up to say goodbye.
Zhou Ziqin, who came with Zhou Ziyan, was still teasing Zhou Ling'an, and had no intention of leaving, Zhou Ziyan shook his head helplessly, and left alone.
Seeing Zhou Ziqin tilting his head and pouting, making Zhou Lingan giggle, Yan Lingyue couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this Zhou Ziqin didn't look like a ruthless person on the surface.
She didn't like Zhou Ziyu to be close to Zhou Ziqin before, that was because Zhou Ziqin always liked to teach Zhou Ziyu some messy and improper things. In addition, she still agrees with Zhou Ziqin in her heart. After all, Zhou Ziyu really liked him as the third brother at the beginning.
But they never thought that the third prince who had no city government in their eyes was not as harmless as it seemed. Now that she sees Zhou Ziqin again, Yan Lingyue is always subconsciously wary.
"Xiao Anyi, look at what your mother is doing?" Just when Yan Lingyue was in her trance, Zhou Ziqin's voice sounded in her ears.
Yan Lingyue pursed her lips and said to Mama Li, "You take Ling'an to find the nurse first, I have something to discuss with the third prince." ”
"Have something to talk to me about?" Zhou Ziqin pointed to his nose, a little surprised.
Seeing Mama Li exit the room with Zhou Ling'an in her arms, Yan Lingyue looked at Zhou Ziqin.
"What's wrong, this is?" Zhou Ziqin walked to the opposite side of Yan Lingyue and sat down.
Yan Lingyue hesitated for a moment and asked, "Does the third prince know about his father's recent physical condition?" ”
Zhou Ziqin said, "My father's health has always been very good. ”
"Really?" Yan Lingyue said, "A few days ago, I accidentally heard that Imperial Physician Zhu and his apprentice were discussing what medicine to change for my father. ”
"Change dressings?" Zhou Ziqin's eyebrows frowned slightly.
Yan Lingyue nodded and said, "Could it be that there is something wrong with my father's body and he deliberately concealed us?" ”
"Brother and sister mean ......" Zhou Ziqin paused halfway through his words.
Yan Lingyue said with a sad face, "I'm just worried about my father's body. The Nine Emperors are now far away in the northwest, and they won't be able to come back for a while, in case something happens to their father during this period, then the court will be chaotic. ”
"Don't worry, brother and sister. Even if my father is sick, it won't be so serious," Zhou Ziqin took out a jade pendant from his arms and put it on the table, "This jade pendant was given to me by the ninth brother back then, I have always been very precious, I have collected it, and I have never worn it." Today, I will borrow flowers and give them to our little princess Anyi as a welcome gift. ”
"The jade pendant that Ziyu gave you?" Yan Lingyue felt strange, and looked at it repeatedly in her hand, the jade crystal clear was really beautiful.
"That Yue'er accepted it on behalf of Ling'an," Yan Lingyue said.
After Zhou Ziqin left, Yan Lingyue breathed a long sigh of relief. She has reminded everything that should be reminded, as for whether Zhou Ziqin will take action, then she can't control it.
The full moon wine was arranged for the evening of the next day, but just after lunch at noon that day, many courtiers who had not seen Yan Lingyue entered the palace one after another. Everyone also knew Queen Xiao's order, and most of them sat in Ming Hanxuan for a while, and then got up and left. But there are exceptions, like Duan Nianyun and Li.
"Yo, this Princess Anyi really looks like our Nine Emperor Princesses," Li looked at Zhou Ling'an, covered his lips and smiled.
"This little mouth does look like our Nine Emperor Princesses, but this nose and eyes are even more like the Nine Emperor Princesses," Mama Li said.
Duan Nianyun muttered, "Where is it?" I don't look like the Nine Emperors at all. ”
This is a little unpleasant to hear.
After Yan Lingyue handed Zhou Ling'an to Mama Li, she said, "Whether it looks like or not, she is a child of the Nine Emperor Princes." ”
"No one said that she wasn't a child of the Nine Emperor Princes," Duan Nianyun said, "Sister, don't think about it." ”
Yan Lingyue was really too lazy to deal with Duan Nianyun, so she simply closed her mouth and stopped talking.
Duan Nianyun didn't feel embarrassed either, poked his head to look left and right, and seemed to be curious about Ming Hanxuan.
Yan Lingyue proposed, "Otherwise, I'll let Zhang Yuling my sister go around?" Anyway, my sister will be staying in Ming Hanxuan soon, so it's good to get familiar with the environment as soon as possible. ”
Duan Nianyun's eyes lit up, she was indeed very curious about Ming Hanxuan, where Zhou Ziyu had lived since she was a child, and just as she was about to nod, the Li family opened her mouth in time, "No need, Nine Emperor Princesses, we will have to go to see Queen Xiao later." ”
As soon as he heard that he was going to Queen Xiao, Duan Nianyun had a hint of arrogance on his face, "Yes, Queen Xiao likes me, and she is still waiting for me to chat with her." ”
"Nianyun!" The Li clan spoke up to stop Duan Nianyun, and turned to Yan Lingyue and said, "The Nine Emperor Princesses don't listen to Nianyun's nonsense. ”
Duan Nianyun didn't follow, "My daughter didn't talk nonsense." ”
Li glared at Duan Nianyun, got up and said goodbye to Yan Lingyue.
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Mama Li sneered, "If you want to talk about liking, Queen Xiao was only good to Miss back then, but in the end, didn't she change the law and stuff people around the Nine Emperors?" "The original Xiuchuan, Mama Li will still remember it.
Yan Lingyue sighed, walked to the beauty couch and half-lay down. I don't know if it's because she has been lying down for a long time in confinement, and she always feels that her physical strength can't keep up.
The more Yan Lingyue attracted attention, the more low-key Yan Mansion became. The old lady and the third aunt, as well as Yan Xiling and Yan Qingning, did not enter the palace until it was close to evening, and they went to Weiyang Palace first.
At that time, Duan Nianyun was sitting next to Queen Xiao and laughing. In that scene, Yan Qingning, who watched it, was on fire.
After the group saluted Queen Xiao, they went to Ming Hanxuan.
When she was in the boudoir, although the old lady was not very close to Yan Lingyue, but in the end, the blood relationship was there, and now looking at the soft and glutinous Zhou Ling'an, the old lady was also happy from the bottom of her heart, and repeatedly told Yan Lingyue to pay more attention to her body after giving birth to a child.
Yan Xiling was already steady, but after getting married, her words and deeds became more secure. It was Yan Qingning, who was still so hot, grabbed Yan Lingyue's hand, and said very angrily, "Doesn't the queen like you the fifth sister the most, but how can I see that she is also very close to Duan Nianyun......
"Qingning!" The third aunt and Yan Xiling opened their mouths in unison to interrupt Yan Qingning.
Yan Qingning trembled in fright.
Yan Lingyue smiled, patted Yan Qingning's arm, and said to the third aunt and Yan Xiling, "If the third sister wants to say anything, let her say it, if I don't even have the ability to bear it, sooner or later I will be eaten by the women in the harem, and there will be no bones left." ”
The old lady agreed, "That's right, your fifth sister, since marrying the Nine Emperor Princes and living in this palace, she is no longer the little girl who is ignorant of the world and needs to be protected." She wants to learn from reality how to become stronger. ”
Yan Qingning also chimed in, "That's it, now we don't tell the fifth sister, let her be careful, what if someone replaces her one day in the future?" ”
"Fifth sister, you don't know, when we went to Weiyang Palace to greet the queen mother, we actually saw the queen mother holding Duan Nianyun's hand, and the two of them looked closer than their mother and daughter."
Yan Qingning said angrily, "What kind of eyes does the queen have?" What kind of character Nianyun is, no one in this city knows what kind of character it is. Arrogant, selfish, and ruthless! Such a woman with no character at all, the queen dared to accept it. Isn't she afraid that one day in the future, Duan Nianyun will make the backyard of the Nine Emperor Princes restless? ”
"Xu is not afraid," knowing that Yan Qingning was upset for herself, Yan Lingyue smiled and poured her a glass of water herself, "Since Queen Xiao likes Duan Nianyun, let her like it, we can't control it." When we have that angry time, we might as well have some tea and some pastries. ”
"Fifth sister, can you swallow this breath?" Yan Qingning's eyes widened.
"If you can't swallow it, you have to swallow it." Yan Lingyue said to Yan Qingning earnestly, "How can everything go smoothly in this life, we have to learn to calm down." ”
"What if I can't swallow it? Looking for Queen Xiao Theory? And then there was a big quarrel, so that the king and the queen looked at me unpleasantly? In the end, even the Nine Emperor Princes lost their patience? ”
"Even if there is no Duan Nianyun, there will be other women in the future, can I make trouble with Queen Xiao every time? I'm afraid that if I haven't figured it out, I won't be able to keep this position. Third sister, when you get married in the future, you have to change your temperament, and you must be patient in front of outsiders. ”
"You are still a sister Qingning," the old lady frowned slightly, and said to Yan Qingning, "Give your fifth sister a good study." ”
"This Qingning is good, it's just too impatient, so frizzy, it's okay at home, if you become a parent, in your mother-in-law's family, you will inevitably suffer."
