Chapter 114: The princess is invited

"But I heard that there are still people who have been holding on to his identity, how is it possible?" The previous round-faced girl shouted in a lost voice, "And there is no news of the selection of a concubine......

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by another girl in a green dress with slightly raised eyes: "Is it that you are wearing such a swagger today, is it for the princess Lingxin?" No one has a number in their hearts, everyone knows it, what are you pretending to be stupid? ”

Someone said something later, but Xue'er couldn't listen to a word, all she had in her mind was "choosing a concubine to get married", and the words "I know"!

How could she forget that Xuanyuan Yu was no longer the person she knew on the isolated island on the sea, and he had become the third prince of the Eastern Spirit Kingdom! He wants to choose a concubine and get married!

At the same time, she also understood why so many people were rushing to attend the banquet for a princess who had just returned and had no power or power.

Anything to get acquainted with Princess Lingxin or please the eldest princess, I'm afraid that they are all coming for the favor of the third prince!

It's a great opportunity to fly on the branches! If you really fall in love with the three princes, even if you are from a humble background and can only be a side concubine, you can be regarded as marrying into the royal family!

Although there is still a British king, it's a pity that the reputation and character are there, and there are so many women in the back house that he can't count them himself, where can it be as leisurely as marrying the new third prince?

Even if the identity is questioned now, but the other party is first recognized by the emperor, it is only a matter of time before those questioning voices disappear!

Think about it again, if you can stand in line when the other party's identity is unknown, it will be a relief in the snow! In case in the future......

The future is limitless, and perhaps the most honorable position among the women will become her own.

Xue'er just has little contact with the world, but she doesn't know the world, but it doesn't mean that her mind is not transparent enough.

However, she would rather not understand the secret of this, and would rather she not appear, in the eldest princess's courtyard, and would rather she not hear Fang Cai's conversation.

She is just an orphan girl, she is not compatible with these noble girls around her at all, she has no noble identity, and she is also incompatible with this capital, if it weren't for Jiuhua Ying, she wouldn't have appeared in this place at all!

Xue'er suddenly felt that she shouldn't have appeared in this place at all, as the dark eighteen said: "The person the emperor is looking for is not you, why should you force yourself?" ”

The sun gradually rose, but Cher suddenly began to feel as if she had suddenly been immersed in a cold pool, and even her fingertips and toes were stiff and cold to the bone.

"The eldest princess has arrived, Princess Lingxin has arrivedβ€”"

There was a sharp and thin voice that suddenly sounded, not high, but it seemed to penetrate the eardrums of everyone present, and in an instant, the surroundings were quiet, almost audible as a needle dropped!

Then there was only a moment, and then I heard someone around me whispering: "Why is there only the eldest princess and Princess Lingxin?" ”

"This is the incense tasting party specially held by the eldest princess for Princess Lingxin, of course they are the only ones who appear?" Someone else retorted unceremoniously in a whisper, in a snarky tone, "Who else are you counting on to appear?" ”

However, these words finally made Xue'er breathe a sigh of relief, but then there was a trace of loss in her heart.

Without having to face Xuanyuan, His Royal Highness the Third Prince, she was relieved in her heart, but she was inexplicably lost because she couldn't see him.

For a while, I didn't know what to say in my heart, and there was a sound of greetings all around, and Xue'er knelt down with the girls around her, but she couldn't say the sentence "The courtiers wait to see the eldest princess, Princess Lingxin-"

Anyway, there are so many people and so many voices around, and she is not one of them. Xue'er knelt there, just like the girls around her, with her head bowed, waiting to follow the people around her to get up.

"Get up." A middle-aged woman's voice, although there was a hint of laughter in her words, was indescribably majestic, "There is no need to be so restrained. ”

However, if you say that you are not restrained, who dares to be really unrestrained, they all dare to get up after waiting for the eldest princess and Princess Lingxin to pass by.

Xue'er didn't know if Lingxin saw herself, but when she raised her head, she only saw two backs.

A lilac long skirt, even if it's just a back, can make people feel like she's straightened back. The other is petite and delicate, but the gorgeous dress decorated with tassels shows her identity everywhere. At the same time, Xue'er was familiar, but also felt a touch of strangeness.

followed by the palace maid who followed them, so Xue'er saw a familiar back again, but she couldn't tell for a while, whether it was Qiu Ru or Qiu Ping.

Jiuhua Ying, who was beside her, saw that she was staring at the backs of the two princesses for a long time, so she gently pulled her: "Xue'er, get up." ”

Xue'er came back to her senses at this time, but her mind began to spin rapidly: Lingxin obviously didn't notice herself, so how could she get the other party's attention?

If it were in the past, it would have been enough to call "Lingxin" loudly, but now, the identities between the two have long been different. If she opened her mouth rashly, I was afraid that Lingxin would have been regarded as deliberately making trouble before she heard it, and it would be light to drive herself out at that time.

Jiuhua Ying naturally didn't know what Xue'er was thinking at the moment, but Xue'er had never seen such a scene, and she was shocked for a while, and she couldn't help but pull her sleeves again, until Xue'er raised her head and smiled at each other reluctantly.

Because only two princesses came, the mood of many noblewomen began to be a little low, but then they thought that it was not bad to enter the eyes of the eldest princess, so they all cheered up again, and when the eldest princess asked for an impromptu performance, one by one still took out their own skills, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing, dancing and embroidery, and so on.

When it was Jiuhua Sakura's turn, it was already close to noon, and the eldest princess was tired of looking at it, and she was already looking lacking in interest, so Lingxin immediately ordered a pause.

At this time, Jiuhua Ying had just stood up, and she was suddenly embarrassed. Xue'er saw that the opportunity was just right, so she came out of the crowd and walked to her: "Sakura, let's go first!" ”

She deliberately said loudly, as if she was angry, and sure enough, she succeeded in attracting Lingxin's attention!

The moment she saw Xue'er, Lingxin's whole body was stunned, and she almost couldn't believe her eyes. However, he also returned to the palace for a while, and often followed the eldest princess, so he has begun to learn that joy and anger are invisible.

Xue'er naturally felt Lingxin's gaze, and also saw the other party's gentle winking at herself, so she also relieved herself and helped Jiuhua Ying back to her seat.

As soon as she walked to the seat, before she could sit down, a little palace maid came to Xue'er's side and said to Xue'er, "Miss Shen, the princess is invited." ”

Jiuhua Ying looked surprised, and at the same time couldn't help but worry about Xue'er, so she couldn't help but want to pull the little palace maid to ask, but was avoided by the other party.

Xue'er was also stunned, and then she saw that the little palace maid was Qiu Ru!

She was about to speak, but she was stopped by Qiu Ru's eyes, so she had to pretend not to know each other and salute the other party.

- Although she is just a little palace maid, her identity is there, and Xue'er has to be pretending.

It's just that seeing Jiuhua Sakura's worried and anxious eyes, Xue'er couldn't bear it in her heart, and she apologized even more to Jiuhua Sakura in her heart, so she couldn't help but whisper: "Sakura, don't worry, I'll be fine." ”

Then he saw Qiu Ru's urging gaze, and thought of what he was going to do, so he hurriedly said: "Xue'er didn't mean to hide anything from you, it's just-"

She paused and considered the wording: "The stakes are high, and I have no choice but to do it." When Xue'er comes back, she will definitely tell the story and ask her sister for her guilt. ”

After saying this, he followed Qiuru, in the eyes of many nobles who were jealous, envious, or confused, all the way through, and walked a short distance, and then fell into the big courtyard.

The eldest princess's courtyard is very large, and there are a lot of rare plants planted in it, it can be said that flowers are undefeated all year round, and there will always be different fragrances of flowers wafting out, so whenever the eldest princess holds a banquet, as long as it is in this courtyard, it is basically called a fragrance tasting meeting.

Xue'er followed Qiuru through the crowd, left the courtyard where the nobles were concentrated, and passed through the winding corridor, and did not go far before she arrived at the gate of a palace.

Qiu Ru stretched out her hand and pointed to the door, and at the same time whispered again: "Miss Shen, please, don't let the princess wait." ”

As he spoke, he followed Xue'er to the door and raised his voice slightly: "Princess, Miss Shen has arrived." ”

"Come in." Lingxin's voice came from inside, and then it was opened, Xue'er walked in first, Qiuru was about to step in, but Lingxin said again: "Qiuru, you stay outside first, and no one is allowed to approach!" ”

Qiu Ru was stunned, and then seemed to understand something. She hung her head, answered the "yes" and withdrew, then closed the door.

The light in the hall suddenly dimmed, and the shade came, Xue'er only felt that the thin sweat that had just been sunburned at the outer door dissipated instantly, followed by a slight coolness, which made her shrink her body and was about to walk in again, when she saw a figure rushing towards her and hugging her at once!

"Cher, how did you end up here?"

Lingxin's voice was full of surprise, and she no longer had the dignified and lofty attitude in front of people, which made Xue'er think for a moment that the Lingxin she was familiar with was back.

However, then he was pulled back to reality by the dazzling golden headdress on Lingxin's head, so he gently broke free of Lingxin's arm, stepped back to half a step, lowered his head, bowed down at the same time, and said: "Shen Yixue, the daughter of the people, meet the princess." ”

Lingxin was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Xue'er with a look of grievance: "Xue'er, you ......"

She flattened her mouth aggrievedly: "Are you trying to alienate me?" Aren't we the best sisters? ”

Xue'er smiled bitterly, looking at Lingxin's gaze a little complicated, thinking of the more than ten years spent together on the Holy Maiden Island, she couldn't bear it. However, the guide Fei himself worked hard all the way, and went to great lengths to come here to see Lingxin's purpose, and he felt a little cold. So his heart was crossed, and he said: "Princess, now that there is a difference between dignity and inferiority, where are there any sisters?" ”

Lingxin's tears were as clear as pearls, full of water. She looked at Cher puzzled: "Why?" ”

Now that she had opened her mouth, the words behind her were much easier, she gritted her teeth and looked at Lingxin: "If the princess really cares about the love of sisterhood, why does she ignore the rescue and protection of Shan Tianying and Tianyi Villa?" ”
