Chapter 82: Canonization
"Okay, you can prepare in peace, I'll come to see you later." Poked her apple-like cheek with her finger, and Bai Lilan took Ou Zhilan to Kunning Palace.
Looking at Baili Lan's back, Princess Chang'an clenched her little fists and swore solemnly, "In the future, I will also become a woman like the imperial sister-in-law!" ”
Hearing Princess Chang'an say this, Qiu Ziyao couldn't help but ask strangely, "Why did you become the county lord?" You're pretty good yourself. ”
"You don't understand," Princess Chang'an said as if she was teaching the younger generations, "Princess Chen has now become a legend in the capital!" Haven't you heard of it? Seeing that Qiu Ziyao looked completely confused, Princess Chang'an shook her head helplessly, and then said, "In the past few days, there have been rumors in the capital that Princess Chen angrily refused the flattery of the official eunuch woman, and her righteous posture made her husband embarrassed!" Think about the ancestral royal family in the past, women were often just supporting roles, as long as they had husbands and children. But the three sisters-in-law are different, they live a chic and wanton life. I didn't want to stay in the palace, so I informed the third brother and moved out of the palace to live. I couldn't get used to seeing your misfortune, so I went into the palace to ask the Queen Mother for her life. I felt that those women who tended to be inflammatory, so I simply scared them with snakes, so that they did not dare to come to the door. Look at it, can the princess in the world be as free and easy as the third sister-in-law? Neat as a husband! When I grow up, I want to be such a different princess, which is admirable! ”
Qiu Ziyao only roughly understood Princess Chang'an's words, but some people praised Baili Lan, she was happier than anyone else, and she was even happier when she heard that Chang An still wanted to be a woman like Bai Li Lan.
There are happy events to do in the palace, and Qiu Ziyao, who she likes deeply, is naturally overjoyed. Although it was still early, she prepared her appearance early and waited for the ceremony to begin.
"Queen Mother, Princess Chen has come to see you."
The waiting process is always boring, just when Mama Su came in and told her that Bai Lilan and Ou Zhilan had come to say goodbye, the Queen Mother smiled and asked Mama Su to bring her two over.
"What have you been busy with lately, but you haven't been in the palace to visit the mourning family for a few days." As soon as Baili Lan entered the palace, the Queen Mother smiled and beckoned, letting Bai Li Lan sit beside her.
"Lan'er has nothing to do, but there are a lot of trivial matters in the palace recently, and I have to arrange them one by one. In the case, Ziyao also went out from the Chen Palace, and a generous gift also had to be prepared. ”
"You, it's the life of hard work, there are so many things, if you can't finish it yourself, leave it to the side concubine to do." Saying that, the Queen Mother looked at Ou Zhilan and said, "The mourning family heard that Concubine Ou's body is much better, so she should also share more for Lan'er." When you were sick, Lan'er didn't take care of you less, and now that you're in good shape, it's time to take responsibility. ”
Looking at Ou Zhilan, the Queen Mother will think of Concubine Jin, although the two are cousins, they look a little similar. That arrogant and domineering woman, the Queen Mother is not pleasing to the eye, even if Concubine Jin is much more low-key now, but in the eyes of the Queen Mother, it is still too flamboyant. Because of such factors, the Queen Mother's attitude towards Ou Zhilan was not friendly, and her eyes only fell on Baili Lan.
Bai Lilan glanced at Ou Zhilan, who nodded secretly, and then leaned over softly and said, "A few days ago, the concubine was not in good health, which even affected my sister and made the queen mother worried. In order to apologize, Zhilan specially prepared a thin gift today, hoping that the Queen Mother would accept it with a smile. ”
As soon as the Queen Mother wanted to speak, Ou Zhilan had already handed the box to Mama Su's hand, and said with a smile, "Zhilan heard that the Queen Mother liked tea, so she asked someone to buy this Ming Qian Longjing. To say that this Longjing tea belongs to Dachang as the most, and the morning dew picking, the taste is the most fragrant. Zhilan thought that what she wanted to give to the Queen Mother must be the best, so she asked someone to pick the Ming Qian Longjing picked by Dachang Morning Dew. ”
Hearing this, the Queen Mother withdrew the words of rejection she was about to say and nodded to Mama Su. After receiving the message from the Queen Mother, Mama Su smiled and handed the gift to the little palace maid behind her, and said, "Concubine Ou has a heart, the Queen Mother has been wanting to drink some light tea recently." ”
"Alright, come and sit down." The Queen Mother looked at Ou Zhilan, although she still didn't smile, but she was looking at her rightly.
Secretly happy in her heart, Ou Zhilan sat next to Baili Lan, but her face was calm.
***
"What, Ou Zhilan and Princess Chen went to see the Queen Mother together?" Concubine Jin was in her palace, carefully depicting the golden flower on her forehead, and when she heard the palace maid beside her say this, her beautiful eyes were horizontal, and she scolded angrily, "That eats things inside and outside, don't you know who belongs to the family?" I saw her go crazy and even get stupid with her brain! ”
"Master, you are dissipated," Concubine Jin's body moved, and the static lotus depicting the golden flower almost fell into the wrong pen. After being shocked into a cold sweat, he hurriedly smiled and comforted, "Concubine Ou is cautious, and she must have made all plans in her heart to meet the Queen Mother with Princess Chen." It's better to call Concubine Ou to talk in detail when there is no one to see what she has in mind. ”
"Hmph, what idea can she make, it must be that I didn't have time to deal with her these days, so I found Baili Lan as a backer. It's ridiculous, a woman who can't even keep her status, still expects her to take care of others? Sooner or later, there will be a day that Ozhilan will regret! ”
"That being said, you might as well have a good talk with Concubine Ou. Since the death of the little prince, you have not seen Concubine Ou again. Although she didn't keep Xiao Shizi, it was originally Concubine Ou's fault, but she had just lost her child, and her family had no one to comfort her, so she could do anything when she was disheartened. According to the slave maid, it is better for you to see Concubine Ou, at the very least, to know what she thinks in her heart, and whether she can still be used by the family? If Concubine Ou really has a different heart, you might as well prepare as soon as possible to deal with it. ”
Hearing Jinghe say this, Concubine Jin thought that Ou Zhilan did not hesitate to tell herself the content of the secret conversation between Concubine Chen and Prince Chen in order to take revenge on Princess Chen that day. Although this can restrain Baililan, at the same time, it will also betray Su Yichen. It can be seen that when a woman hates it, anything can be done. When the family is not sure whether to give up on Ou Zhilan, it is better to keep an eye on her, so as not to be reflexively bitten by her unconsciously!
"As soon as I prepare my dress, you will go to wait outside Kunning Palace, and see when Ou Zhilan is alone, let her come over!"
"Yes!"
***
After saying a few words to the Queen Mother, Ou Zhilan excused herself from feeling unwell and wanted to go outside to blow the wind, so she left Kunning Palace and lingered in the corridor alone.
Seeing this, Jinghe hurriedly followed and followed.
"Miss Cousin, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you have lost a lot."
Hearing the familiar voice, Ou Zhilan turned around, looked at Jinghe with a light smile on her face, and said, "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. Recently, there have been too many things in the palace, and the princess is a person who doesn't care about the world, so she has worked a little. ”
"No wonder. But even if Miss Biao is busy, she must remember to enter the palace to meet the concubine, the concubine has been talking about you lately, so why don't you come to talk to her. Since I happened to meet it today, let's go to the concubine and sit down. ”
After hearing what Jinghe said, Ou Zhizhi couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
Hmph, don't you want to see you? Why didn't she hand over her name and ask to see her? But Concubine Jin prevaricated in every possible way and avoided herself with various excuses, if she hadn't listened to the princess's words today and met the Queen Mother with great fanfare, I'm afraid Concubine Jin would continue to ignore herself!
Although she was resentful in her heart, Ou Zhilan's face was still calm, and she nodded slightly and said, "It's so good, I haven't seen Concubine Jin for a long time, and I miss it very much." ”
Turning around and following behind Jing He, Ou Zhilan slowly restrained her smile, thinking about how to deal with it for a while. Before entering Concubine Jin's palace, Ou Zhilan heard Concubine Jin's impatient reprimand, and her voice was sharp and harsh.
"Don't you fools have long eyes? Such an ugly hairpin dares to put it on my head! ”
Just listening to the sound of "pop", there was a broken golden hairpin at Ou Zhilan's feet. The butterfly wings on it were broken, just like herself, trying to spread her wings and fly out of this cage, but she couldn't help herself.
"Yo, isn't this Zhilan, when did you come, and you don't squeak." As if she had just discovered Ou Zhilan, Concubine Jin hurriedly stood up, came over and took Ou Zhilan's hand, and said kindly, "I heard a while ago that you are not in good health, and I wanted to send someone to visit." But the emperor took away the palace order of Prince Chen for no reason, and if he went at that time, he was afraid that others would chew the root of his tongue. This delay has been delayed until today, but fortunately you can enter the palace and let our sisters get together. ”
"What Concubine Jin said, it should have been a concubine who came to visit you. It's just that I've been sick, and I'm afraid that I'll get sick and sick to the concubine, so I haven't come. It's a coincidence, the concubine was thinking that someone would come to the palace to make a report, and she ran into Jinghe, and she didn't delay for even a moment, so she came to the concubine. ”
Concubine Jin said beautiful scenes, and Ou Zhilan was not far behind, the two of them were affectionate, as if there had never been unpleasantness.
Bringing Ou Zhilan into the inner hall, the two of them retired from the palace maid and talked about their daughter's family in private.
"I've also heard that your condition was very bad a while ago, and even the imperial doctor sent out failed to cure you. Hey, I was in a hurry at that time, and I couldn't wait to leave the palace to go to you and take care of it personally. Ou Zhilan said, with a distressed look on her face, "Later, but the prince invited a famous doctor for you to heal you?" ”
"Heh, if the prince is also a famous doctor, then what my cousin said is not wrong."
"Lord Wang?"
Ou Zhilan nodded shyly and said, "Exactly." Because of the loss of Xiao Shizi, my whole body is about to collapse, my temperament has changed greatly, my temper is short-tempered, and even I hate myself at that time. But the prince never gave up on me and took care of me personally, which pulled me back from my deep pain little by little and allowed me to live a normal life again. ”
"Yo, I really can't see that Prince Chen, who is so deep on the surface, is really affectionate to his woman." Although she was following Ou Zhilan's words on the surface, Concubine Jin was extremely disdainful in her heart. What kind of life did Ou Zhilan live at that time, would she not know? But since both of them chose to cover up this past, let's continue to whitewash the peace!
