Chapter 12 A concubine is not a concubine
In the early morning of the next day, the sun shone on Mu Lingyan's body, she opened her hazy eyes, and gently rubbed the corners of her green eyes with her hand. Only then did I realize that I had fallen asleep unconsciously, and I was asleep against the windowsill. No wonder I felt a little stiff and looked up at the sky, and it was already dawning. At this moment, the door to the room was opened, and Luo'er came in with a basin in her hand.
She first put down the basin in her hand, and then walked to Mu Lingyan's side and said worriedly: "Miss, Luo'er knows that you are bitter in your heart, but don't torture yourself like this, Luo'er will feel uncomfortable in her heart." Luo'er's words made Mu Lingyan very puzzled, seeing that something really seemed to have happened to her like that, and it was related to herself.
But Mu Lingyan didn't understand what Luo'er meant by this, so she asked, "Luo'er, what do you mean by this, what does it make me feel uncomfortable?" Why am I so uncomfortable? When Luo'er heard her young lady say this, she thought it was Mu Ling's sad and excessive remark, which made Luo'er even more anxious.
"Miss, Luo'er understands, Miss definitely doesn't want to mention this matter, so Luo'er won't talk about it. Come, Miss, Luo'er will freshen up and dress you. Mu Lingyan was still in a hazy state at this time, and she couldn't understand Luo'er's words at all. But seeing that she said so, she suppressed the doubts in her heart and let Luo'er serve by the side.
Under Luo'er's skillful hands, a beautiful woman is presented in the mirror. I saw that I was wearing a lilac top, a gorgeous goose-yellow belt on the plain white smoky gauze skirt was tied into a beautiful bow, long green silk was casually sprinkled on the shoulders, a delicate flowing cloud bun was pulled, a jasmine mutton fat hairpin was inserted, and the white tassel was smeared on the black hair like a picture. The jade pendant on the ears sets off the grace and calmness, the cherry lip flap is unstained and red, and the apricot eyes are full of grace and tranquility.
Mu Lingyan was very satisfied with this outfit, and praised Luo'er softly. I saw that Luo'er's tightly knit eyebrows finally showed a smile. Although she didn't know what Luo'er was bothering about, Mu Lingyan knew that Luo'er was caring about her. So he took Luo'er to breakfast, and along the way, the people all respectfully greeted Mu Lingyan.
"The princess is auspicious!" "The princess is well!" "Princess, morning!" ……
Mu Lingyan felt the difference between the palace and the prime minister's mansion, everyone in the palace was one and the same, and there was no anger at all, and there seemed to be a surprisingly large number of people in the palace. I didn't get to the dining hall after walking for a long time, which made Mu Lingyan feel a little depressed. She really didn't understand why these ancients liked to build houses so big that she starved to death.
At this time, Mu Lingyan and the others had already come to the garden, but they stopped. Almost the entire garden is covered with orchids, a wide variety of orchids of different shapes, and there are all kinds of orchids. Chunlan, Huilan, Jianlan, Hanlan, Molan, and what is even more unexpected is that there is a pot of spring sword among so many orchids. You must know that the spring sword is very precious, its flower color has red, yellow, white, green, purple, black and compound color, gorgeous and dazzling, the appearance is slender, the charm is elegant, the fragrance is pure. The faint fragrance wafted into the tip of Mu Lingyan's nose, and Mu Lingyan inhaled deeply, and the familiar smell suddenly filled her entire heart.
Just as Mu Lingyan was looking at these orchids happily, a woman's laughter came from not far away, and it didn't seem to be one. I saw three graceful women walking from the corridor, and the woman walking in front of her was wearing a light red crepe bandeau dress, on which was embroidered with clean jasmine, the most dazzling ivory white was as shining and enchanting as it was against the bright red background, and the jade bells on the corners of the skirt jingled with the steps. The soft white silk tied around the waist brings out the perfect figure and is uneven. Dressed in a light purple robe of Suzhou silk, it is dazzling, but the embroidery on the side is a bright red peony. The makeup on his face is gorgeous and seductive, and his expression is so haughty.
Behind him was a woman who was also dressed brightly, and I saw that the woman showed a delicate and seductive posture. The pink butterfly coat covers the fair skin, and the pink stripes around it show a dull pink light when you look closely. The crystal clear inverted earrings hung down and swayed, and the green silk scattered on the shoulders was pulled up with a hairpin of blood-red bellflower flowers. There was a hatred hidden in those heterochromatic eyes, which made Mu Lingyan look more and more confused. And when I looked closely, there was a petite woman behind her, and I saw that the woman's weak appearance made people want to take care of her. But on closer inspection, she found that the woman's complexion was pink, and a pair of resentful eyes were staring at Mu Lingyan.
Mu Lingyan looked at the three strange women, turned her head and asked Luo'er, but before Luo'er could speak, she was interrupted by the red-clothed woman led by her: "Yo, isn't this our new princess?" Why did you come out so early to enjoy the flowers! ”
Although Mu Lingyan didn't have time to learn their identities from Luo'er's mouth, she could guess a thing or two from her provocative words. The romantic history of the three princes is known to everyone in the entire holy capital, and looking at the three delicate women in front of him, it is conceivable that they are his concubines. Although Mu Lingyan is a concubine, she has no intention of competing for favor with these three women. So for the sake of unnecessary trouble in the future, it is necessary for her to draw a clear line with Jun Motian.
"Sisters, do you want to take a look at these orchids, they are blooming beautifully!" Mu Lingyan's kind invitation was met with their disdain, but she didn't take it to heart.
It was still the woman in red who spoke: "The princess probably doesn't know, a few of us hate to see this orchid the most." I don't know what happened to the prince, but suddenly he planted orchids. The second half of the sentence seems to be said to Mu Lingyan, but it is actually said to the other two people. And the bewitching woman standing in the middle said disdainfully: "Maybe our prince has specially collected so many orchids in order to please our new princess, which is really envious of others!" ”
Mu Lingyan was nothing, but Luo'er beside her couldn't listen to it, and was just about to open her mouth when she was stopped by Mu Lingyan. Seeing Mu Lingyan shaking her head, Luo'er's whole little face was full of anger, but she couldn't do anything. Mu Lingyan stepped forward and said, "Sisters, this is wrong, although I love this orchid, it has nothing to do with the prince planting these orchids." There is also the fact that the prince in your mouth is no different from ordinary people in my eyes, I will not fight with you for anything, and I hope you will not treat me as an enemy in the future. ”
After saying this, the faces of the three people opposite were different, and the woman who had not made a sound opened her mouth and asked, "Don't you like the third prince?" There was a little disbelief in her tone, and when she saw Mu Lingyan nodding, the resentment in her eyes seemed to disappear immediately, and the whole person became energetic.
But the woman in red looked incredulous, and scolded angrily: "Qin Lan, don't be deceived by her, how can she not fight with us for the king, you don't use your brain!" The already white face of the man named Qin Lan became paler and paler, as if a gust of wind would blow her down.
Mu Lingyan didn't want to talk to them much, it was up to them to believe it or not. What Mu Lingyan doesn't like the most is to fight with a bunch of women, but now she is annoyed with these three alone, and she doesn't know how many women there are outside! Mu Lingyan was disturbed by the three of them, and her original good mood was also lost by them. So he instructed Luo'er to let her bring the food into the room, and turned to leave, ignoring the three women.
Mu Lingyan, who returned to the room, took a big breath and saw Luo'er come in with food. As soon as I was about to say something to her, I saw that her expression was very strange. "Luo'er, let's talk!"
Luo'er raised her head in surprise and saw Mu Lingyan staring at her, so she told her everything about the morning. It turned out that Luo'er and a maid named Xiaohong in the house went out to buy vegetables early in the morning, who knew that as soon as they arrived at the market, they heard someone talking about the third prince, and Luo'er kept an eye on it at that time. I only heard that the people there said that the third prince appeared in Fuxiangju last night, and what did they say that the current three princesses are not favored. At that time, Luo'er was angry when she heard that, and until now she is still a little upset for Mu Lingxi: "Miss, Luo'er didn't believe those rumors in the market, but when I entered the house in the morning and saw that Miss was alone, I knew that Miss was alone last night." She was about to cry as she spoke, but Mu Lingyan hurriedly stopped her tears from falling.
"It's okay, what outsiders like to say is their business, we don't care if the mouth is on other people's faces. Actually, I was quite glad last night, I just have an extra title of princess on my head now. Then he looked at Luo'er: "Do you understand?" In fact, as long as they don't set foot on my bottom line, I will go with them. But then again, are these three women Jun Motian's concubines? ”
Luo'er listened to what Mu Lingyan said just now, and she was relieved, she was afraid that Mu Lingyan would be sad about this matter. "Miss, it is said that the three of them were brought into the mansion by the prince, but they still have no names. They have always regarded themselves as the mistresses of the palace, and the prince has never said anything, and over time people have regarded them as masters. ”
"Oh, that's right! No wonder they are so pampered and arrogant, but as long as they are not too excessive, they will go with them. Luo'er, you don't have to deal with them, so they don't have anything to do, it's not good. I still want to live a quiet life! Mu Lingyan finished eating the millet porridge in her mouth and stretched her waist satisfied. Luo'er couldn't help but smile when she saw her young lady's appearance, and always felt that the current young lady was very easy-going, and she liked it very much.
