The next day, because he was thinking about Baili Shihan in his heart, Su Jinli got up after Gu Mingjue went to the court.
After simply freshening up and dressing up, she entrusted the Gu Xichen brothers and sisters to Qingyue, Qingge and the two nurses with just a little breakfast, and then hurriedly rushed to the Six Princes' Mansion with the gifts prepared yesterday.
As soon as her carriage arrived at the gate of the Sixth Prince's Mansion, a guard greeted her and saluted respectfully: "Subordinates greet the Seventh Prince's Princess!"
"Excuse me!" She was so faint that she slowly got out of the carriage with the support of Qingqin and Qingyu as she spoke.
Seeing the elegant and noble Su Jinli, the guard hurriedly lowered his head and arched his hand: "Your Highness ordered your subordinates to wait for the princess here early in the morning!" Please come with your subordinates to Hanryin Temple! โ
Su Jinli nodded without doubt, and then walked to Hanlian Courtyard under the leadership of the guards.
The Hanlian Courtyard where Baili Shihan lived was located in the center of the Six Princes' Mansion, and Su Jinli walked briskly for half an hour before arriving.
She was in a hurry, and by the time she arrived at Hanlian Courtyard, her face was already slightly crimson, and she was a little panting.
Fortunately, it was late February, and it was not very hot, so she was not sweating profusely.
As soon as Su Jinli arrived at the gate of the courtyard, a girl wearing a green brocade dress and combing a double ring greeted her and saluted: "Slave maid to meet the Seventh Princess!"
"Miss Su'er, get up quickly!" She chuckled.
This delicate maid is Baili Shihan's personal girl.
Su'er straightened up as she said, and explained with a light smile: "When I heard that you were coming, my master was very happy, but unfortunately she couldn't get up to greet her!" Therefore, he sent the slave and maid here! The princess is please! โ
Hearing this, Su Jinli smiled and said, "The Sixth Emperor's sister-in-law is too polite!"
After a pause, she said again: "There is a girl who leads the way!"
Although she came to the Six Princes' Mansion when she went to Chengde Villa last year, she was not familiar with Baili Shihan at that time, so she didn't go around the mansion much, but just sat in the hall for a while.
She didn't know about the layout and furnishings of this courtyard.
As soon as she finished speaking, she understood, and she no longer was verbose, only walked in front with a light smile and led the way for Su Jinli's master and servant.
After passing through several winding paths and corridors full of flowers, she finally reached the door of Baili Shihan's bedroom.
Before she could enter the door, she smelled a pungent smell of bitter medicine, she frowned subconsciously, and then quickly stepped forward and pushed the door open.
"Slaves and maids participate in the Seven Princesses!" Pei'er and Huan'er hurriedly said goodbye.
"Flat!" Su Jinli was bent on Baili Shihan behind the heavy screen and veil at the moment, where could she take care of them, she only raised her hand and answered lightly and walked straight to the couch.
As soon as she lifted the veil, she saw the pale Baili Shihan smiling weakly at her, and she said, "Seventh brother and sister, you are here!"
Xu was too happy to see Su Jinli, and a few traces of crimson appeared on Baili Shihan's haggard and emaciated face.
But this didn't make her seem to be in good shape, but rather a faint sense of weirdness.
Su Jinli's eyes were hot when she looked at this picture, how did that radiant, cool and generous woman become like this?
I couldn't complain that Gu Mingyue would be so worried, and I couldn't hide my family ugliness and directly invited her to visit Baili Shihan!
"Sixth Emperor Sister-in-law, you ...... "Why did you become like this?"
Su Jinli looked at Baili Shihan with red eyes, and the bitterness in her stomach made her unable to say the next half of the sentence.
She knows very well that the reason why Baili Shihan has become like this is because she has never given birth to a little emperor grandson!
Thinking about it, a trace of compassion welled up in Su Jinli's red eyes.
She is obviously a simple woman who doesn't have a city government, but why is she so miserable?
In her previous life, her child was lost under Wei Ziyuan's calculations, and it was not easy to save it in this life, but she failed to give birth to a small county lord as the queen wished!
Baili Shihan took in all the changes in Su Jinli's expression in her eyes, her heart was slightly warm, a trace of self-deprecation flashed in her eyes, and she said lightly: "Seventh brother and sister, you don't have to worry!" I'll be fine! I'm going to grow up with my poor Jane! โ
As she spoke, a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, and then turned into a full of determination.
It is inevitable that the pearl she won so hard to get was trampled and bullied after she passed away, and she had to hold on to this breath no matter what!
Seeing her like this, Su Jinli felt even more uncomfortable, and an unspeakable sadness suddenly surged into her heart.
The Yan Kingdom has always been inferior to men and women, especially in the royal family!
People in the world always say that men can inherit the family business and wantonly despise their daughters, which is really unfair!
But...... They are victims, but they don't have half a point!
After being silent for a long time, Su Jinli took the lead in breaking the peace, and she squeezed out a smile and said, "What about Zhen'er?"
She didn't know the nickname of Baili Shihan's daughter, but she knew that Emperor Yongli gave her the name "Xizhen", and only then did Baili Shihan call her "Zhen'er", so she guessed that her nickname was this.
Speaking of Gu Xizhen, Baili Shihan's eyes softened in an instant, and she smiled lightly: "That girl is carried by the nurses in the side yard!"
After that, I was afraid that Su Jinli would be puzzled and continued: "The smell of medicine in my house is too strong! I was afraid of hurting her, so I didn't let them bring Zhen'er to me! โ
Su Jinli bowed her head clearly, what a mother's heart!
"By the way, sister-in-law, is Sun Fu still in the house?" She asked suddenly.
Baili Shihan didn't know what she meant, but said truthfully: "Doctor Sun resigned after I gave birth to Zhen'er, and my husband didn't worry about my body and forced him to stay!" It just so happened that I was not feeling well, so he has been in the house! โ
Su Jinli's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled noncommittally.
Then he chatted with Baili Shihan about the interesting things in Beijing these days, and after chatting for a while, Su'er came in with a bowl of thick black medicine and a plate of candied fruit.
Baili Shihan smiled apologetically and motioned for Su Jinli to go out first to avoid the pungent smell of medicine, but she didn't expect that she took the medicine bowl directly from Xu'er's hand.
Although she was moved and did not avoid suspicion, Baili Shihan still didn't want Su Jinli to feed her medicine in person, so she smiled and said: "I understand the kindness of my brother and sister, but you have only just come out of confinement, and your body has not fully cultivated, and you are not too sick!"
Hearing this, Su Jinli immediately glared at her, and then directly filled a spoonful of medicine with a dark face, and carefully blew it before feeding it to her.
Seeing that Su Jinli was determined to feed her the medicine, she couldn't refuse, and Baili Shihan also gave up the prevarication and drank the medicine directly.
After a bowl of medicinal drinks, Su Jinli hurriedly handed her the candied fruit again, and then took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the black medicine on her lips.
"If you are really afraid of illness, let me relax and take care of my body, otherwise I will come to the Six Princes' Mansion every day to serve you! When you're healed, I'll be no more! Su Jinli took the veil and said half-angrily and half-seriously.
Needless to say, she also knew that the reason why Baili Shihan was like this was because of her depressed mind, so if she wanted to heal her, she had to untie her knot first.
Obviously, Gu Mingyue failed to do it, she had a relationship with Baili Shihan, and she should have taken care of her for a while and comforted her.
Hearing this, Baili Shihan couldn't help but show a sincere smile, and joked happily: "Hahaha, brother and sister are going to rely on me?"
After that, she also blinked, quite a bit naughty and delicate.
Seeing that she was happy, Su Jinli pretended to raise her head and said, "Hmph! If you are not good for a day, I will rely on you for a day! โ
Knowing that she was joking, Baili Shihan continued to laugh: "Okay! The doors of the Six Princes' Mansion are always open for you! โ
After speaking, the two looked at each other, and then looked at each other and smiled.
Just when the two of them were in a better mood, a discordant voice came: "Tut, why did the Seventh Emperor's sister-in-law come to the Sixth Emperor's Mansion?"
The two subconsciously looked up and saw the eighth princess standing at the door with a smile on her face.
Suddenly, the smiles on Su Jinli and Baili Shihan's faces froze, and the two frowned in unison.
This arrogant and domineering lord provoked Gu Mingyue to come to the house when he was not there, I'm afraid it's not a good thing, right?
Seeing that the two of them who had just talked happily with each other sank their faces when they saw themselves, a cold light flashed in the eight princesses' kind peach blossom eyes.
"The Sixth Emperor Sister-in-law and the Seventh Emperor Sister-in-law, are you welcome to this palace?" She asked with a sneer.
Baili Shihan and Su Jinli glanced at each other, and then the two remained silent tacitly.
They really didn't want to talk to the eighth princess they hated, so they simply sang a one-man show by themselves with a cold face!
As soon as she entered the door, she touched a gray nose, and the chill in the eyes of the eighth princess became a little heavier, and a cluster of flames ignited in her eyes.
"Ignoring Hongu? Very good! She smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes.
She showed a meaningful smile at Baili Shihan, and then her face turned cold, and she turned around and shouted, "Come in to this palace!"
As soon as the words fell, six young beauties dressed as palace maids walked in.
"Slave maid meet the princess! Meet the Six Princesses and the Seventh Princess! Several beauties saluted gracefully and neatly.
"This is the beauty carefully selected by the queen mother for the imperial brother, the sixth imperial sister-in-law, you see how to arrange their residence!" The eighth princess smiled proudly, and a hint of happiness flashed in her eyes when she looked at Baili Shihan.
The news was too shocking, Baili Shihan was like thunder, and his brain was blank for a while, and he only struggled and pointed at the triumphant eighth princess, and couldn't say a complete sentence for a while: "You...... You ......"
Compared with Baili Shihan's shock, Su Jinli's reaction was much calmer.
She picked her eyes slightly, and carefully looked at the concubines that the queen chose for Gu Mingyue in the mouth of the eighth princess.
But...... Beauty is beauty, but it is not a fuel-efficient lamp!
Although they hung their heads humbly, the joy on their bodies could not be concealed.
After a moment of deep silence, Su Jinli's eyes lit up, and then he raised his eyebrows and asked: "Since it is a beauty given by the queen to the six emperor brothers, why don't you go to Kunyun Palace to bring the beauty back after the early dynasty, and let you send a princess who has not left the cabinet to the Six Princes' Mansion?"
The eighth princess was looked away by her sharp gaze that seemed to be able to see through everything, and looked away a little weakly.
After a long time, the eighth princess choked back calmly: "Hmph! This palace acts on the orders of the queen mother, how can you question it? โ
