Following.

By Divine Decree. Emperor Yuan'an personally inscribed a golden plaque of Jian'an Hou's Mansion, and gave Jian'an Hou Lu Tong'an a thousand taels of silver, and a royal horse and a snow horse.

The golden plaque was opened by a eunuch, and eight people carried it all the way from the palace to between the two stone lions at the entrance of the general's palace. The nomads can see the blessings of God.

Tong'an received the order to thank him, and immediately installed a gold plaque. The General's Mansion thus became the Jian'an Hou Mansion.

The day the holy decree arrived was also the time when the two county lords returned to the palace. Lu Sang also set off for Huainan on the second day after submitting the letter of recommendation.

At this moment, there were two people standing outside the Jian'an Hou Mansion, and it was Nu'er who was saying goodbye to Tong'an. And the Lu Yinhua sisters are already waiting in the incense car at the moment.

"I don't know when I'm going to see you again. Although you have won the title of Marquis of Jian'an, you must not forget your original intention. Men should be self-reliant, you can have some ability in the previous dynasty, and the fourth sister will have some help in the palace. If you and my sister and brother want to walk steadily, the only way to support each other is to support each other. so as not to let the traitors take advantage of it. Nu'er looked at Tong'an and said earnestly.

Tong An was slightly moved, he really regarded her as the fourth sister. He knew that compared to him outside the palace, the fourth sister seemed to be quite favored in the palace on the surface, but in fact, she had nowhere to go, and she had to guard against the villain's assassination. It's much harder than him.

"There is only one new eyebrow by the side of the fourth sister. Ruo Ling is a clever girl carefully selected by Aunt Bai, and she knows some fist and foot kung fu. I have dredged up the relationship, and this time the fourth sister will bring Ruoling into the palace, so that someone can take care of it. ”

After speaking, Tong'an took a piece of green jade and handed it to the slave, "The new palace maid has our eyeliner." If the fourth sister sees someone wearing green jade in the palace, she can use the silver hairpin of the falling moon given to you by Aunt Bai. There is a girl named Nanshuang in it, who is good at medical skills, and maybe the fourth sister can use it. ”

All aspects of Tong'an have been taken care of, and no one has ever considered her so carefully. There was a hint of warmth in Nu'er's heart, she nodded, and returned the green jade to Tong'an, "I remember the style of the green jade." Tong'an, thank you. ”

Those bright eyes flashed with a little starlight, and there was a faint smile on Tong'an's slightly tired face. His fourth sister has the most intelligent eyes in the world. There is not only the ruthlessness of killing decisively, but also the tenderness of blue waves and autumn water. Resemble...... Stars in the sky, moon in the sea.

"How can the fourth sister be so polite to me? Sister and brother are not allowed to say thank you in the future. Tong An suddenly grabbed the slave's hand and said seriously, "I will protect you in the future!" ”

Nu'er blinked and couldn't help laughing, "Okay, I'll wait for you to become stronger to protect me." ”

Tong An looked at her indecent appearance and couldn't help but say, "I'm not a child anymore!" ”

A twelve-year-old child, who even spoke with childishness, looked at the slave fixedly. He was annoyed at her indecency, and dismissed his seriousness as a joke. I only hate that I wasn't born a few years earlier, and I didn't take the title of brother.

"County Lord, the county lord of Huashang has sent someone to urge." Youruo stepped forward and said.

"Got it." The slave nodded, I don't know if it was really the moment of parting, but there was a bitterness in my heart. She took a deep look at the young man standing in front of her, in two years he had changed from the child who was no bigger than her shoulders to a little man who was now slightly higher than her forehead. In a few years, he should grow taller and more handsome, and he will no longer be the helpless boy kneeling before his mother's spirit, but a man who will take responsibility.

Xu felt the sadness emanating from the slave, Tong An squinted his eyes and joked half-jokingly, "It's your birthday in half a month, this year's fourth sister and Sheng, have you forgotten?" Don't worry, we'll see you again in another half a month. ”

Tong'an Yiti Nu'er just sounded that his birthday was indeed coming. She thought about it and felt that what Tong An said made sense, so most of her sad emotions disappeared. She walked to the incense car with Xinmei's hand, and before getting into the car, she was still relieved, and couldn't help but admonish, "Take care of your body." ”

The jade curtain was lowered. The incense cart drove slowly.

Because of the addition of Lu Yuebai, I asked for two incense cars this time. Lu Yinhua's sisters rode in the front together, and Nu'er rode alone in the rear.

On the incense car, Lu Yuebai took Lu Yinhua's hand and said, "This Wei Nu'er doesn't know how hard his life is." I was able to escape responsibility several times. It's not right to keep her for a long time. What can my sister do? ”

"She is so loved by His Majesty. After returning to the palace, there is no chance. Lu Yinhua said expressionlessly, her eyes looked at Lu Yuebai, "The so-called person who knows the times is Junjie." She is about to reach Sheng, and she can no longer be as childish and delicate as before. Royal grace, this splashing wealth seems gorgeous. But for her, the blessings and misfortunes are known. ”

Yuebai was puzzled, "Yuebai doesn't understand what my sister means." ”

Lu Yinhua stretched out his hand and stroked the broken hair in his ear for Yuebai, as if he was talking to Lu Yuebai, and as if he was talking to himself. Her eyes gradually became dark, "It's okay if you don't understand, my sister will teach you." Yuebai, you have to remember that the real master of the harem is the queen mother. The only thing we have to do is to please the Queen Mother, and then wait, wait for an opportunity, a time that can really break her heart. ”

Lu Yuebai threw herself into Lu Yinhua's arms, tears falling down her eyes. She whimpered, "I listen to my sister." Fortunately, His Majesty gave my sister a marriage, and a year later, when my sister became the sixth princess, we can be considered to have survived. ”

Lu Yinhua gently patted Lu Yuebai's back, and his eyes darkened. Rest assured, it won't be that long.

Half an hour later, the incense car stopped outside the Yonghe Gate.

The step has already been prepared, and the Lu Yinhua sisters have stepped up one after another. The slave followed. As soon as he took a few steps, a eunuch hurried over.

"Lord Mingjia stays!" The little eunuch shouted breathlessly, and stopped walking. The leading sedan chair eunuch greeted him with a smile after seeing the person who came, and said with a flattering face, "Yo, isn't this Gonggong Li of Longyang Palace?" Which door is the wind that blows you, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome! ”

Gonggong Li took a breath of relief, walked towards the slave's steps, and replied in a sharp voice, "The miscellaneous family came to do an errand for the emperor." ”

In the palace, the minions are also divided into high and low.

In addition to the people in the Internal Affairs Office, the palace maids and eunuchs who served in Longyang Palace, Zhengyang Palace, and Shoukang Palace were the most confident and the most frowned. Especially in Longyang Palace, not only are they stampered by the minions below, but many masters in the harem also have to pay tribute to them. After all, they often follow the emperor, and it would be great if they could occasionally say a few kind words.

This Gonggong Li walked in front of the slave's steps, changed his appearance, and saluted respectfully, "Lord Mingjia, Your Majesty summons." This step will be directly diverted to Longyang Palace. ”

As soon as he came back, Nu'er asked with a smile, "Does Gonggong Li know what happened to His Majesty?" ”

"The minions dare not speculate on the holy will. When the county lord arrived at the Longyang Palace, he naturally knew. Gonggong Li said patiently with a grin.

The people who can get some respect from the Longyang Palace in the palace are either people with the highest status, or people who are on the tip of His Majesty's heart.

The person carrying the sedan chair is accustomed to looking at the eyes, and the step is lifted again and changed to the Longyang Palace. The slave obviously felt that this time his steps were much more stable than just now.

Seeing this, Lu Yinhua didn't have too many expressions, just lightly ordered, "Go back to Changmutang." ”

Longyang Hall is still as solemn and majestic as ever. Nu'er Lian walked into the main hall, and a bright yellow figure first came into view, and then a beauty beside Emperor Yuan An. That beauty looked very eye-catching, and it didn't seem to have been seen in the harem.

Xu Quan walked down to greet the slave and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty and Ying Chang have been waiting for the county lord for a long time. ”

Nu'er glanced at Xu Quan gratefully, walked to the center of the main hall and stood still, and bowed slowly, "Nu'er greets Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed and safe." ”

Emperor Yuan An looked at Nu'er and squinted with a smile, he waved his wide sleeves, "Look at the seat." ”

Immediately, someone brought a stool, and the slave sat down calmly, looked at the delicate and moving Ying Chang on the side of Emperor Yuan An, and said, "This lady looks very eye-catching. ”

"This is the new Ying Chang here." As soon as Emperor Yuan'an's words fell, Ying Changzai got up and walked towards the slave Yingying, "The concubine has seen the county lord." ”

Chang is not in a high position, but this slave can bear it. However, the title is generally given to the nobleman or concubine, and this beauty still has a title when she is always there, which shows that she still has a sacred heart. Nu'er smiled and said, "Ying, Yuguang also." Ying is often in the jade bone ice muscles, and her demeanor is graceful. It's as beautiful and pure as jade. ”

This Ying Chang looks like he is about sixteen or seventeen years old, his eyebrows and eyes are good, and there is a hint of strength in his weakness. is different from the women in the harem who are so delicate that they can be broken by the wind. With such an aura, Nu'er faintly felt a little familiar, but he really couldn't tell where it was familiar.

After receiving the praise of the slave, Emperor Yuan An couldn't help but move his gaze to Ying Changzai again. She is beautiful and moving, her cheeks are slightly red, and she looks like Liu Er when she bows her head shyly. He was very satisfied with this beauty that he had personally selected.

Emperor Yuan An's mind came to the smiling woman, and he couldn't help but say a little abruptly, "Beauty is beautiful." It's not as good as your mother. ”

Yes, mother!

The slave finally knew where that familiarity came from. Some of Ying's small movements and aura are quite similar to her mother. Nu'er smiled and said, "Mother must be very happy to hear His Majesty's praise." ”

"A few days ago, Concubine Fang mentioned to me that your birthday is coming. I'm about to grow into an adult. Emperor Yuan An said with a half-smile, he thought about it and said, "I thought about it, and it is a big deal, and it can't be passed easily. It is better to let Yongshou be the guest, Fang Concubine as the secretary, and Huashang as the praiser. Your parents have always been your parents, but now that your parents are gone, I am the master. How is it? ”

The host is the son of heaven, the guest is the eldest princess, the secretary is the concubine, and the praiser is the county lord. This courtesy is incomparable to that of many princesses. How dare the slave bear it, she quickly got up and knelt down, "Your Majesty is kind, pity the slave for losing her parents." But with such a long grace, the slave really can't stand it! At the beginning, the slave's two sisters and Lu were not so glorious, not to mention that the father had just left, the slave, the slave really couldn't bear it...... I beg your Majesty, the slave's courtesy, everything can be simple. ”

"In my heart, you are the only one who deserves such glory." Emperor Yuan An looked at the person kneeling on the ground, and finally compromised, "That's it, since you want to be simple, then follow Jane." It's just that the candidates for the ceremony remain the same, so only your family and harem concubines will be invited. ”

This...... Also called Jane? Nu'er wondered if Emperor Yuan An planned to invite everyone in the court if he didn't follow the simplicity.

The holy will has been decided, and the slave is not good to refuse, so he has to kowtow and thank him, "Courtier, thank Your Majesty for your grace!" ”
