Chapter 4 Drama Skills

In the past few days, although Ye Minghuan has been resting at home and is bored, Yan Haoxue has not been idle. Every day, he was called into the palace by the queen. No, today the palace sent someone to invite again. Although it is nominally said that she invited the daughter of the clan into the palace to continue talking, in the past few days, only the juniors of her age who enter the palace every day are the juniors who are waiting to be married.

In fact, this is not unusual, after all, she was born in the royal family. According to the rules, their collateral marriage events are more or less through the emperor's mother. Even if there is a suitable choice for marriage in the family, it is up to the emperor and queen to make a decision after looking at it first. What's more, it's a noble girl from a clan like her who doesn't have a choice to get married.

It's just that today is a little different. Today, none of the nobles of the clan who have already chosen a candidate came, only she and a few other girls who did not choose a good candidate came. And to her surprise, Concubine Ying also came today. It stands to reason that although Concubine Ying is favored, she is just a concubine after all. Today, in fact, it is not her turn to appear here, but her appearance can only show one thing, that is, her status in the heart of the emperor is more important than others think, after all, without the permission of the emperor, she cannot appear here. Yan Haoxue hid the surprise in her heart, and respectfully saluted the emperor and concubine Ying.

Yan Haoxue sat respectfully in the Fengyi Palace, and the queen mother asked, and she replied, which was very polite. Although she couldn't find fault in her face at all, and she coped with it perfectly, she had already seen through the purpose of today's banquet in her heart, and she was tired of making a false occasion. It is said that it is a continuation of drinking tea, but in fact, it is to investigate the cultural heritage of each female dependent, and see if there are some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs. And the two people on the stage have their own thoughts today, in the eyes of the two people on the seat, the girls under them are just commodities to be sold, and whoever has the highest value will be picked.

Now, the emperor's body is not as good as day by day, although he has been established, but the court is not full of clouds. The power of the eldest prince should not be underestimated, and the queen has tried her best to stabilize her son's position, let alone find a good wife for him, a wife who can't pick out anywhere, and a wife with a good family background and appearance. And why not Concubine Ying? She doesn't have the help of her mother's family, and the eldest prince is already difficult in the court, so she naturally has to choose a good daughter-in-law. She appeared here today to take advantage of the banquet held by the queen to pick her daughter-in-law.

And today, Concubine Ying has been very silent, just observing in secret, and the emperor has been asking herself, Yan Haoxue also knows the emperor's thoughts to some extent. But she really doesn't want to be the crown princess, she is most tired of the deceitful and pretentious court life. In her own Hou Mansion, the behavior of those concubines was enough to make her disgusting, let alone within the deep palace walls? This is completely contrary to the life she wants.

She kept a smile on her face, but she wanted to get out of here. But she also knows that she has escaped for a while, and she can't escape for a lifetime, and she can only be completely free if she completely gets rid of her current identity. But it's very difficult to get rid of. But she's going to try, no matter how hard it is, she thought.

Finally, when the sun was setting, the emperor was finally willing to let her go back. She still bowed respectfully and retired, and the moment she left the gate of Fengyi Palace, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and her heart was finally over. But before she could relax, she was stopped by Lian Xia, the big palace maid beside Concubine Ying.

"Miss Yan is fine." Lian Xia saluted her and said, "Concubine Ying, please go to Shulan Palace for a while." Although she said it politely, her tone could not be denied. Yan Haoxue sighed silently in her heart, and said slowly, "Even if Concubine Ying is invited, I will go from now on, and the girl will lead the way." She had not followed Lianxia for a few steps, and when a gust of evening breeze blew, she began to cough, and the more she coughed, the more fiercely she coughed, until her face was flushed and she could not catch her breath a little.

Seeing that she was coughing, Lian Xia hurriedly helped her calm down, and said, "A few steps further is Shulan Palace, if the girl doesn't go to Shulan Palace to rest, so that the imperial doctor can take a look at you." Hearing this, Yan Haoxue coughed a few more times, and then she eased her breath, she said a little weakly, "It's nothing, maybe it's the evening breeze, the imperial doctor has prescribed medicine to me before," she paused, and then looked at her maid Yu'er, "Yu'er, did you bring medicine when you went out today?" She tilted her head slightly and winked at Yu'er.

Yu'er immediately understood, immediately touched the cuffs, and immediately knelt on the ground, and said anxiously, "Miss... I... I forgot to bring...""Why are you so confused," Yan Haoxue clutched her chest uncomfortably, her eyebrows frowned, "You know, I can't leave this medicine, if there is no medicine at the time of illness, I will cough and breathe." She coughed violently a few more times, and said more weakly, "This medicine is troublesome to make, and it can't be made overnight." Now that Concubine Ying is invited, how do you ask me to meet my mother like this? ”

Sweat broke out on her anxious head, and she couldn't speak. Seeing this, Lian Xia also saw that there were other palace people coming and going, and knew that if she forced Miss Yan to go again, there would be rumors in the palace tomorrow that her mother would force Miss Yan to go to Shulan Palace, and maybe it would alarm the one in Fengyi Palace. The gains outweigh the losses. She weighed it again and again, and finally spoke, "Miss Yan, since this is the case, it's better to go back and take medicine quickly." Your body matters. She was concerned.

Yan Haoxue's face was embarrassed, and she hesitated a little, "Then, Concubine Ying's mother..." You go back early and get some rest. Lianxia reassured. Yan Haoxue heard this, apologized again, and said that she would definitely visit Concubine Ying again after she recovered from her illness. After another polite gesture, Yan Haoxue finally walked weakly to the place where the carriage was parked outside the palace with the support of Yu'er.

The two got into the carriage and walked away from the palace, Yan Haoxue motioned to look around to see if there was anyone, and Yan'er opened the curtain to look at it, and shook her head at Yan Haoxue. Yan Haoxue let out a breath of turbidity and let go of her tightly twisted eyebrows. She smiled slightly and said to Yu'er, "Yes, now my acting skills are getting better and better." Wei'er scratched her head a little shyly, and asked tentatively, "Miss, will Concubine Ying see that you are pretending?" ”

Yan Haoxue nodded, a shallow smile on her lips, "Yes." ”

"Huh? Why? Yu'er said a little anxiously, "You are still laughing, then you are not afraid that Concubine Ying will trouble you?" Yan Haoxue glanced at her and said with a smile, "Don't worry." You listen to me explain it to you slowly. ”
