Chapter 252: The Inner Palace Is Not Simple (Second Update)
On the manna hall, the queen of heaven is dressed in apricot yellow colorful splendid flying phoenix Zhai clothes and wears a phoenix crown to sit on the upper seat, but the two women sitting on both sides have different beauty and bearing, the left seat is about twenty years old, the appearance is dignified and gentle, the eyebrows and eyes on the goose egg face are beautiful, and the temperament between the manners is like Lan Qingqing, which makes people can't help but get close at first sight.
The one on the right seat is as glamorous as a peach and plum, her bright face is full of beautiful posture, and her bright red nails gently picked up a grape peeled by the palace maid on the desk and put it in her mouth, spit out the grape seeds on the silver plate held by the palace maid, and said with a smile: "The grapes here are still sweet, and the concubine eats them to the right taste." ”
The queen of heaven smiled gently: "This is a tribute to Qianhe, if Sun Baolin eats it to the right taste, he will bring some back later." ”
Sun Baolin hurriedly got up and thanked him: "Thank you for the reward." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Concubine De who was sitting opposite him defiantly, and then Shi Shiran sat down.
This scene fell into the eyes of Gu Mingzhu, who was waiting in front of the hall, and she immediately lowered her head, looked at her nose and nose, and looked at her heart and nose without curiosity, which made the queen who could see clearly bend the corners of her lips slightly.
Sure enough, he is a smart man.
She called Gu Mingzhu in, smiled and said to Concubine De and Sun Baolin: "This is the county lord of Lingling, the daughter of Xuanyang, and now she stays in the palace to be Anping's companion." ”
Gu Mingzhu bowed down on his knees: "Say hello to Concubine De." He turned his head and owed to Sun Baolin: "Baolin." ”
Concubine De smiled gently: "Hurry up, come over and let me take a look." ”
Gu Mingzhu stepped forward according to her words, and Concubine De pulled her to watch, turned her head with a smile and said to the queen: "What an outstanding person, he looks so good, he even likes the concubines to look at it." ”
Sun Baolin glanced at Gu Mingzhu and smiled: "No, when the concubine entered the palace, I heard that the eldest princess of Xuanyang was so beautiful that she was incomparable in the palace. ”
She said, and suddenly covered her mouth again: "Look at the concubine's mouth, and talk nonsense, the queen of heaven is the real beauty that no one can match." ”
Gu Mingzhu's heart tightened, and he raised his eyes slightly to look at Sun Baolin.
She didn't understand why this Sun Baolin was like this, obviously they didn't know each other, even in their previous lives, they had nothing to do with her, Sun Baolin was a concubine in the inner court, and Gu Mingzhu was a foreign wife, but she had only met a few times, so why did she target Gu Mingzhu so intentionally or unintentionally now?
Fortunately, the queen didn't care, and shook her head with a smile: "Xuanyang's beauty is known to the world, even I can't compare, but it's a pity that she left early and will never be seen again." ”
She looked at Gu Mingzhu and said with a smile: "I'm still used to entering the palace just now, if you want someone to come to the Ganlu Hall to talk to Ah Yun." ”
Gu Mingzhu lowered her eyes and curtled her knees: "Thank you, Niangniang, Her Royal Highness the princess has made all the arrangements." ”
Concubine De smiled kindly on the side: "The county lord has just entered the palace, but I am afraid that there are still many unaccustomed to it, and the queen of heaven is busy with everything, if there is anything you don't understand, go and sit in my palace." ”
Gu Mingzhu hurriedly got up and thanked him, and was pulled by Concubine De: "Don't be polite, it's also my blessing to be able to help the queen of heaven share her worries." ”
Sun Baolin on the side smiled a little meaninglessly: "The county lord of Lingling can go to Concubine De's palace more often, and few people go there in the past, so you can be more lively." ”
Gu Mingzhu couldn't help but be shocked, and quickly raised her head to look at the queen and Concubine De.
She knew Sun Baolin's origin, originally Sun Baolin was just a palace maid in Concubine Cheng's palace, and she was a personal palace maid trusted by Concubine De, but she didn't know what means she used, so that the saint was fortunate once, and she stepped into the clouds, from picking girls step by step to Baolin, and was deeply favored by the saint, but no matter how favored she was, she was just a Baolin, I don't know how she dared to talk to Concubine De so arrogantly.
Concubine De also seemed to be angry with her, but she didn't want to have a seizure in person, but her face was a little embarrassed, and she turned her head to look at the queen.
However, the queen of heaven just smiled and shook her head: "Your mouth is just talking nonsense, and Concubine De has a good temperament, so I don't blame you." ”
She turned her head and said to Gu Mingzhu: "I asked you to come over, just to let you see the people in the palace, but Mo Zhaorong is still sick, and ...... else Well, you should step back first. ”
Gu Mingzhu obediently withdrew from the Ganlu Palace, leaving the seemingly harmonious concubines in the hall.
Before returning to the Qianqiu Palace, Princess Anping asked Tourmaline to invite Gu Mingzhu to the main hall: "Mingzhu, you can be regarded as coming back, I'm still afraid that the queen mother will keep you and won't let you come back, come on, I'll take you to see Chu Niang." ”
Gu Mingzhu looked at Princess Anping's words, and there was a dignified and serious little lady sitting on the seat in the main hall, wearing a royal blue cloud brocade corset skirt, a blue and blue silk placket skirt, but her head was not tied with cloud buns and regular buns like ordinary women, but with a high bun, and a colorful palace yarn flower, she looked very stereotyped in her dress, more like a concubine in the palace.
Gu Mingzhu stepped forward with a smile and owed a debt: "Lord Changping." ”
The one who got up and returned the salute solemnly: "Lingling County Lord." Before Gu Mingzhu could speak again, he had already switched to Princess Anping and said: "Your Highness, Mr. today has instructed that Your Highness should copy five big characters and write three poems silently, so let's go to the study first." ”
Princess Anping suddenly had a bitter face, and looked at Gu Mingzhu like a plea for help: "Mingzhu, you can help me ......"
Zhou Chuchu shook his head, with a little adult tone: "Your Highness, the saint and the queen of heaven let the Lingling County Lord enter the palace in order to take care of and accompany His Highness, how can I delay His Highness's study, if I let the Niangniang know, I am afraid that I will blame it, Your Highness should go to the study with me, and I will accompany Your Highness to write silently." ”
As she spoke, she turned back to Gu Mingzhu and said, "Your Highness's homework has always been accompanied by me, I'm afraid that it won't be good to change people this time, so I will ask you to help take care of His Highness's food and consumption, Mama Yao knows how to arrange it." ”
As she spoke, she had already held her head high and persuaded Princess Anping to go to the study.
Gu Mingzhu looked at Zhou Chuchu who was walking away, frowned slightly, and never spoke.
"County Lord, the maid is the head of the Qianqiu Palace, and she is at the behest of the county lord." Mama Yao was kind and walked forward with a smile.
Gu Mingzhu also said politely: "Then Mama Lao will talk to me." ”
Princess Anping is accompanied by two county lords, Zhou Chuchu has already stolen the most limelight and flattering errand of companionship, although Gu Mingzhu has the name of companion, but can only take care of the princess's food and use, this is the most troublesome and complicated, if one is not careful, it will cause trouble.
It seems that Zhou Chuchu has a plan, and Gu Mingzhu has a plan in his heart. There are also Sun Baolin and Concubine De, even Mo Zhaorong, who has never seen her when she is sick, can't help but pay attention, this palace is really not simple, she has to be more and more careful.
