The case was investigated for about six or seven days, and a conclusion was finally reached. Both sides took a step back, only said that they were injured by mistake, and did not mention the marriage again. Both parties hid to recuperate from their injuries, and the guests who had come from afar gradually dispersed, and the rumors in Beijing were updated too quickly, and almost no one mentioned the matter again after two or three months.

Mrs. Fu Cui Shi was particularly grateful to Yu Wenchu: "Thanks to His Royal Highness the King of England, this is a kind person and a person who remembers feelings, if he hadn't mediated and persuaded King Lin'an and the clan, I'm afraid that this matter will still have to be talked about." Mingzhu, you have to remember that you owe him a great favor, and you are not allowed to be rude when you see people in the future! ”

Mingzhu crooked aside and stirred the iced sour plum soup in the agate bowl with a silver spoon, and said lazily: "I remember, you have said it many times." ”

Seeing that she looked lazy, Cui Shi nodded her forehead with hatred and love, and said angrily: "You are not worrying, you are really my enemy in my previous life!" ”

Mingzhu salivated and smiled, but she was a little disapproving. That person is clearly a person who doesn't see a rabbit and doesn't scatter an eagle, and doesn't let go of the benefits, where will he help people in vain? I don't know what benefits my father and brother have given him. But to be honest, his means are indeed good, he is good at dancing with long sleeves, and such a tricky thing can actually be settled for him, not only to shut up Yu Wenyou and not to make things happen again, but also to keep those old stubborn Qi Qi in the clan silent, and the most rare thing is that the Empress Dowager Min did not say anything again.

The eldest sister-in-law, Qian, asked people to bring in newly made clothes and jewelry: "This time for Concubine Min's birthday, the Empress Dowager said that she would hold a show for her scenery, and the ladies of all the provinces will go at that time, and it is time for our pearl to make an appearance." ”

Mingzhu heard that she was going to enter the palace, the whole person was tense, she had not entered the palace since she was reborn, in the depths of her memory, the last time she entered the palace in her previous life was the death of the Empress Dowager, she begged her to see the Empress Dowager for the last time, but the Empress Dowager Min did not allow it, let the palace people stop her outside the palace gate, and reprimanded her fiercely in front of all the internal and external women, not only did she not allow her to enter, but even Dai Xiao was not allowed to cry and mourn. Thanks to Concubine Min quietly sending someone to tell her that the Empress Dowager was properly dressed and that things were okay after her death, she was a little relieved.

I didn't think it at the time, but when I thought about it now, I realized that the intersection between Concubine Min and Yuwenchu's mother and son was not small, and they didn't show any ill will towards her from beginning to end, which was not easy. Mingzhu thought about it, and suddenly felt that Yu Wenchu was not so hateful.

It's already the height of summer, and the newly made dresses are all light silk yarn, and the jewelry is mostly jade, crystal, gemstone and the like, luxurious and transparent. Cui's picked out a set of crimson palace clothes and asked Mingzhu to wear this: "You are the most suitable for this color, this special crystal silk, gorgeous and light, soft and falling, make clothes the most beautiful." ”

Qian opened the box, carefully took out a peony flower strung with thin slices of various colored gems and jadeite, and compared it on the sideburns of the pearl: "Wear this." ”

In fact, there are many similar jewelry, but most of them are carved with tourmaline, and the size is not too big, but this one is different, the petals are huge and dazzling, the color is positive and beautiful, the materials are precious, and the cost is quite a lot, and the Tao is not too valuable. Mingzhu was a little sad, this flower was also given to her in her previous life, but it was not in such a situation, but she had a big fight with Yu Wenyou after marriage, and ran home angrily to cry, and her mother took this flower to make her happy. She also likes it very much, and often wears it on her head, which causes many people to be sour...... Where did the flower go? Yes, in order to collect the corpses of her father and brother, she used it to curry favor with Empress Dowager Min. I still remember that Empress Dowager Min looked disdainful: "What good things haven't you seen in this palace?" Do you think it's really rare for you to have this flower? It's just for the sake of your filial piety, and it will fulfill you. ”

Mingzhu smiled, took the peony flower and put it on her hair. In this life, she will never let this flower fall into the hands of the enemy, she will wear it, protect the people in the family, and see those who hide in the dark to calculate her, slander her, and bully her with envy, jealousy, and hatred, but she is helpless to vomit blood.

On the day of entering the palace, Mingzhu deliberately chose a time that was neither early nor late, in order to go too early, and people wanted to say that she had a weak heart and no face to see people; If she goes too late, people will say that she is too arrogant and has no one in her eyes, and there is another crime. It is better to pick the middle, and let it blow its east, west, north, south, and north winds, and it blows its own blows.

When she arrived at the palace gate, the Empress Dowager had already sent the little eunuch Shen Changfu who had to be used in front of her to pick her up. Shen Changfu is a flattering person, and when he saw the female relatives of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he smiled and stepped forward to salute him, and flattered Mingzhu: "The girl hasn't seen her for a while, and she is becoming more and more like a fairy daughter." ”

Mingzhu threw a piece of silver over and said with a smile: "Have you ever seen the fairy daughter?" ”

Shen Changfu smiled: "Of course I've seen it, isn't the girl?" ”

At this moment, even Mrs. Cui couldn't help laughing: "You are a lark, right?" ”

Shen Changfu was about to say a few more tricks, when he saw a person in brocade clothes and jade belts, with only a little eunuch by his side, walking over slowly, he took a step back, and saluted in a regular manner: "Slave and maid to His Highness to say goodbye." ”

The man has a white face and no beard, a round face, a slightly chubby medium stature, and he looks upright, born with a smiling face, and is very angry, it is Anyang Wang Yu Wenlong, because he is the eighth of the nine sons of Wenzong, so everyone calls him the eight kings. When he saw Mingzhu and the others, he smiled and slid his gaze on Mingzhu's face, and then respectfully saluted Cui's family: "Madame, are you going to pay tribute to Concubine Min?" ”

Cui Shi didn't dare to put it on the shelf in front of him, and hurriedly returned the salute: "Exactly, Your Highness is here to greet the concubine?" ”

"In my early years, I had to be taken care of by the concubine, and she didn't dare not come to her old man's good life." Yu Wenlong held Cui's support and said with a smile: "Madame doesn't need to be polite, Xiao Wang worshiped the prime minister as a teacher a few days ago, you are the master and elder, let's do family etiquette." ”

Cui insisted: "First national salute." ”

Yu Wenlong had no choice but to salute by Cui's family, and then glanced at Mingzhu who followed the salute, and said with a smile: "Sister Mingzhu hasn't seen you for a long time." ”

Mingzhu was surprised, when did she become his sister? The tone was so intimate, as if she knew him very well. Looking at Cui Shi again, he actually had a happy expression, so he became a little uncomfortable, and replied with a light smile: "Your Highness is well." ”

Yu Wenlong looked at her with a smile again, his eyes slid from her face to her chest, and then to her waist, all the way down, raised his head with great satisfaction, smiled and smiled, and naturally followed them inside. After a while, he talked to Cui's about Buddhist scriptures, and for a while, he pointed to the scenery in the palace to Mingzhu and Qian and others, which attracted the sideways attention of the palace people, but he was very interested.
