As soon as the morning dawned, the painter began to toss in the morning, and the maids and attendants in the courtyard were busy shuttling through the corridor one by one, some of them carrying the toiletries of the two young ladies, some of them carefully holding the clothes that the two young ladies wore when they entered the palace, and some of them carefully prepared the snacks that the two young ladies would use before going out. In addition to the lively scene in the hospital, there are also endless footsteps outside the hospital. The painter's butler commanded a group of attendants waiting outside the door to carry lanterns, and from time to time instructed the driver to make sure that the arrangement was correct, and then stood respectfully at the door and waited for the arrival of the protagonist.

That's right, today is the day when the two young ladies of the painter enter the palace according to the will of Madame Zhang. Although they were only two of the more than a dozen famous ladies invited to the palace, the grace and glory bestowed by the royal family, even if they were only the size of sesame seeds, would make them feel like stars in the sky, no matter which household they fell on.

According to the internal affairs of the palace, all those who enter the palace to meet in person, in order not to dishonor the holy face, those with official rank must wear official uniforms, and other people, etc., must also dress generously and decently, clean and tidy, in order to comply with the rules.

An apricot-colored brocade dress was put on the body of the painter, she took a cold breath, gritted her teeth and endured the pain of the wound on her body, and let the unsuspecting Mrs. Zhang take care of everything. But she still didn't change her face, pretending to be nothing, standing aside, spreading her hands, and letting the maids dress and wear beads.

"Mother, I have enough jewelry on my body, if there is such a string of stones hanging on my head, I will be unable to move, won't I be like a waste person, making people see jokes?" Hua Yan took off the agate bead hairpin that Mrs. Hua had just put on for her, and said aggrievedly with a pout.

"This pearl hairpin was given by Mrs. Zhang at the last palace dinner, and you wear it when you enter the palace this time, it is for gratitude, you can bear with it again, and wear it for a day." Mrs. Hua put the pearl hairpin back on her back again.

After finishing the tidying up, Hua Shu also came over and said with a smile, "Isn't it, Yan'er looks very good wearing this pearl hairpin." ”

Hua Yan finally gave up struggling, and the whole family spent a lot of thought on the two sisters entering the palace this time, even if she was not satisfied with such a cumbersome arrangement, it was not good to resist too much on the surface.

Huayan sat on the edge of the dresser, looking at himself wrapped into a big zongzi with his hand, and could only sigh helplessly.

"Alright, all set, let's go out."

With Mrs. Painting's order, the painting face was like a swallow out of the cage, and she was excited. She jumped up from her chair and strode towards the door, but before she could take a few steps, she tripped over her own skirt.

Fortunately, Shenglan on the side reacted quickly, grabbed her hand in time and pulled her back before she landed, which saved her from a difficult situation.

Hua Yan pretended to fix his hair and clothes, turned around and patted Sheng Lan's shoulder, and smiled easily.

"Thank you." After Hua Yan finished speaking, he didn't care about the angry appearance of Mrs. Hua behind him, lifted the hem of his skirt and walked out quickly, leaving Hua Shu and his party far behind.

In the hall, the painting Taishou stood alone in front of the door with his hands behind his back, and he looked up at the sky in the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

Hua Yan walked gently to his father's side, and also looked towards the place where his father was looking, but saw nothing except the blue sky at night.

Hua Yan cautiously looked back at his father and asked in a low voice, "Daddy, what are you thinking, so distracted?" ”

Hua Taishou pinched his goatee with his hand and sighed: "Yan'er, you must obey the rules and etiquette when you enter the palace this time, the palace is no better than the courtyard, and you can't act recklessly." ”

Hua Yan nodded seriously, although she was sometimes too self-conscious, she actually knew the importance in her heart.

"If it's ......" painting is too guarded and stops.

Seeing her father's preoccupied look, she seemed to have guessed seven or eight points, "Father, don't worry, Yan'er knows how to act." Although my father has been highly used by the imperial court in the past two years, my father has always been pragmatic and simple, does not seek fame, and disdains to cling to the powerful. Although Yan'er is a woman, she should also follow her father's ambitions. Converge on the edge and obey the rules and etiquette. ”

Painting Taishou was very pleased after hearing this, his daughter has been smart since she was a child, she can understand everything, although she is still young, but her personality is as resolute as ordinary people. He has also always raised Huayan as a son.

Hua Taishou nodded in satisfaction, and without saying much, he motioned for her to hurry up. Huashu and the others then came to the door and got into the carriage.

The horses obediently trampled on the streets, one heavy and one light, and the sound of horses' hooves was particularly loud in the quiet streets.

After Hua Yan drove the car and looked out of the window, he made sure that he was some distance away from home, and then sat back in his position.

Hua Yan took out a paintbrush from his left sleeve, took out a small bronze mirror from his right sleeve, and painted it on his face with a paintbrush in front of the mirror.

Seeing this, Hua Shu, who was sitting on the side, didn't know why, she asked, "Yan'er, what are you doing?" ”

Huayan put away the painted pen and covered his face with a bronze mirror, "Sister, you will see it later, but don't be angry." ”

Hua Shu was even more puzzled, "Why are you angry?" Is there something wrong with the girls? Tell me to see it. ”

After Hua Shu finished speaking, he was about to reach out to take down the bronze mirror, but was startled by the painting that took the initiative to bring his face over. "Yan'er, you! ...... Why did you make yourself look like this?! ”

Hua Yan put down the bronze mirror and grinned, "Sister, don't be angry, you listen to me first." ”

Hua Shu sat back in her seat, frowning, looking at Hua Yan sternly, waiting for her to explain.

"Sister, you know that Yan'er has always disliked restraint, and she has never liked to be noticed, so she is used to being casual. Now Mrs. Zhang doesn't know what's wrong, she always calls my name in public, outsiders must think about how close Mrs. Zhang is to us, but it's not. This makes those who squeeze their heads and want to climb rich and noble, how blushing should they be, if I don't pretend to be ugly, how can I balance the psychology of those people? It's a little less of a problem, isn't it? ”

After listening to these words, Hua Shu was very surprised, I don't know when her naughty little sister who loves trouble has such a thoughtful side, she has never thought about these problems.

Hua Shu looked at her sister in front of her as if she had changed a person, especially the firmness hidden in her calm eyes that she had never seen before.

She finally agreed to Hua Yan's proposal, she knocked on Hua Yan's head with her hand, and said with a smile, "You! Always naughty and mischievous! When you go home, remember to wipe your face clean, don't let your mother see it. ”

Seeing that she finally got her sister's consent, she immediately smiled.

When the day was full, the carriage also slowly drove to its destination, the north gate of the palace. There were already four or five sedan chairs parked outside the palace gate, as well as two or three carriages, and the painting was supported by Shenglan to get out of the carriage first. She glanced towards the palace, only to see several feet wide and high gilded palace gate standing in front, and the building on the palace wall protruding in the distance was magnificent. "This palace is really unusual, it used to be just watched on TV, but now it can be immersive! And the real scenes are much more beautiful than on TV! ”

Xin Qiao, who was accompanying her, heard it and was a little puzzled, "Miss, what is the TV you are talking about?" ”

"Uh...... It's nothing, it's just a painting, yes, a painting. ”

At this moment, there was a burst of laughter beside them, and they saw a woman in a bright red dress and a pearled hair, walking towards them.

"Yo! Where did this come from, I have never seen the dirt buns on the market, and I dare to make a loud noise under the palace walls! The woman in red walked up and down in front of Hua Yan, looked Hua Yan up and down for a while with her red phoenix eyes, and suddenly raised her head and laughed.

"You look so ugly, you dare to come out to meet people? Hahaha......"

Hua Yan stopped the excited Xin Qiao on the side, and only looked indifferently at the rouge and pink woman in front of him, secretly wondering what kind of door this woman with flamboyant manners and frivolous posture came from, so that the Son of Heaven dared to speak so boldly.

The maid beside the woman also said with a sneer, "Miss, she is the so-called painter Miss who moved the capital with a song, but I didn't expect that the second lady of the painting is so good at music, but her appearance is ......."

When the woman in red heard this, her eyes were even more contemptuous, "What kind of song moves the capital, it's just a trick of the play." After the woman finished speaking, she saw that Huayan bowed her head and was silent, thinking that the other party was afraid of her, so she laughed even more wantonly, and then flicked her sleeves and walked forward.

The words of the woman in red naturally attracted the attention of the ladies who were also waiting outside the palace gate, some of them turned a blind eye, some of them secretly covered their mouths and snickered, and some of them whispered on the side.

From the discussion of others, Huayan learned that the woman was Zhu Biyu, the daughter of General Zhu.

At that time, Zhu Chaoshi followed Liu Yu to fight the world immediately, and he was the current founding hero, with high merit and power, and Xu Xianzhi, Tan Daoji and others were ranked above the court. has such a domineering father, no wonder that Zhu Biyu is so arrogant.

It seems that choosing not to argue with her face-to-face is the clearest choice, and there is no need to provoke yourself for such a trivial matter.

And Xin Qiao on the side was already so anxious that she jumped to her feet, "Miss, that person is disrespectful, why don't you give her a lesson, Miss is still afraid that she won't succeed!" ”

"I haven't talked about you yet, but you talked about me, have you forgotten what your mother told us before? How can you be so reckless. ”

The painting looks serious, but it makes Xin Qiao scratch her head.

"Miss, when will you listen carefully to Madame......

Sheng Lan pulled Xin Qiao aside, "What Miss says, you just listen to it, there must be a reason for Miss." ”

"Well, Katsuran is right." Hua Yan said with a satisfied smile.

Huashu, who had just gotten out of the carriage, walked over, "What's wrong?" What are you talking about? ”

Hua Yan covered the mouth of Xinqiao, who was about to make a report, "It's nothing, don't listen to this girl's nonsense, it's just a few jokes." ”

Hua Shu was about to ask something more, but when she saw the palace door wide open, and a white-faced eunuch with a whisk in her hand walked out of it, she immediately stopped talking.

"Mrs. Zhang is having breakfast at the moment, so I would like to ask you to wait for a moment in the Imperial Garden."

After the eunuch said that, he waved his finger and asked the attendants on the side to lead the ladies into the palace gate.
