Regarding Lin Zhizhi's "must be remembered" thing, until the eve of entering the palace, Lin Jiaruo couldn't figure out the reason.

After dinner, Yao Shujing was still tirelessly repeating tomorrow's etiquette process for her, Lin Jiaruo was a little impatient when she heard it, and couldn't help asking, "Brother Shujing, are you quite nervous?" ”

Uncle Yao's face turned red, and he said in a low voice: "It's always me who is frivolous, so that you have to go through these at a young age, the majesty of the Son of Heaven makes people feel worried before His Majesty sees it, not to mention that you ......" Between the words, regret is unbearable.

It turned out to be because of this......

Lin Jiaruo comforted him: "It doesn't matter, my father and eldest brother have taught me, when I go to the main hall, Your Majesty doesn't ask, I won't speak, Your Majesty asks, I will answer truthfully, and I won't say a word!" ”

Yao Shujing nodded again and again when he heard this, and his heart was relieved, but he soon became worried: "After Your Majesty sees it, I am afraid that I will have to give a banquet, and when the time comes, if you are led to the harem, we will not be able to take care of you......"

"It's okay, my father has already entrusted Mrs. Rongguo and the seventh girl of the Pei family to take care of me!"

Yao Shujing was shocked: "Mrs. Rongguo? Prime Minister's wife? Your family actually has a relationship with Prime Minister Pei's family?! ”

Lin Jiaruo shook her head, she really didn't know this.

"With Mrs. Rongguo and the girl of the Pei family, as long as you don't offend the nobles in the palace, there is nothing to worry about!" Uncle Yao said with a smile on his face.

But what if you offend the nobles in the palace? Lin Jiaruo suddenly became worried.

It was not early, and Yao Shujing was about to leave, when suddenly a servant brought a box in.

Open, is a gold silk eight treasures bead collar, although the pearls on the collar are not big, but each one is smooth and clear, at a glance you know that it is not ordinary.

"The Shen family sent someone to send it, saying that it was for Miss Lin to wear when she sees Her Majesty tomorrow!"

Regarding the matter of His Majesty's meeting, Lin Jiaruo has always looked at the people around her coldly and nervously, and she is still very disdainful in her heart.

It wasn't until early that morning, when the maids began to groom and dress her, that she became nervous.

As soon as she was nervous, her head went blank, and she didn't know where to run to what her father and eldest brother asked her to remember.

So she was even more nervous, and when it was time to go out, the cold air hit her face, but she felt a cold sweat from her palm.

Regarding the things he had forgotten, he wanted to ask Yao Shujing again, but when he saw it, Yao Shujing's eyes were so nervous that he had to turn to Yao Zhifu: "Lord Yao...... I—I want to go home......" As soon as he opened his mouth, he cried.

The chamberlain who led them into the palace smiled and said: "Miss Lin, you can't go home now, Your Majesty summoned you, that's the glory of your Lin family, you can't cry!" ”

Governor Yao also whispered to reassure: "Don't be afraid, when you get to the main hall, if you are really nervous, don't speak, Your Majesty is merciful, and I won't worry about a child with you." ”

Lin Jiaruo wanted to cry even more when he heard it, but he was not merciful, did he have to deal with me?

No matter how reluctant Lin Jiaruo was, the carriage still pulled her to the imperial city.

Entering the imperial city, Lin Jiaruo looked left and right, there were people everywhere, and the tall bodies of the adults were crowded together, like countless walls, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Yao Shujing held her hand tightly, but Yao Shujing's hands were also wet and cold sweat, Lin Jiaruo felt very uncomfortable, so he simply withdrew his hand, which was blown by the wind, his palms were cold, and he hurriedly shrank into his sleeves.

Seeing that the gift was also to be queued, Lin Jiaruo was not tall enough, and he couldn't even see how many people were lined up in front of him, so he quietly moved to the front, pulled the waiter who led the way, and casually thought of an excuse to talk to him: "Father-in-law, where is the white deer and the white monkey?" ”

The waiter smiled: "The weather is very cold, and I am afraid that the beast will not be patient, so I will take it to the side hall to rest first." ”

Lin Jiaruo instantly became sad and angry: I'm still being blown by the cold wind here!

Where can the child's emotions be hidden from the people in the palace, the chamberlain smiled and comforted: "Miss Lin, bear with me, you are the first batch of people to give gifts, and when the envoys of the neighboring countries and the kings and princes in front of you are ready, it will be your turn!" ”

Lin Jiaruo saw that he was dressed thinner than himself, but he stood straighter than himself, he couldn't help but admire, stretched out a hand from the tightly wrapped outer curator, grabbed a small stove in his hand, and said, "Father-in-law, you are wearing so little, is it cold?" I'll lend you my stove! ”

The waiter was stunned for a moment, and waved his hand with a smile: "No, no, I grew up in Beijing since I was a child, and I have long been used to the winter here, but you are from the south, you must not be used to being so cold, cover it well, don't freeze!" ”

Lin Jiaruo saw that he was so resolute in his resignation, so he shrank back.

With such a paragraph, the waiter seemed to have a much warmer attitude towards Lin Jiaruo, and took the initiative to chat with her.

"Miss Lin was summoned by His Majesty at such a young age, as long as nothing goes wrong, Your Majesty will probably not let you go home empty-handed, Your Majesty has a reward, and when you arrive at the harem, the ladies will not lag behind, you! Blessed! ”

"What will Your Majesty reward me?" Lin Jiaruo was a little looking forward to it.

The chamberlain shook his head: "It's hard to say-" Suddenly lowered his voice, "When you enter the main hall in a while, Your Majesty asks you, if you can answer, you have to answer loudly and loudly, if you can't answer, you honestly don't know, don't hesitate-"

Lin Jiaruo nodded again and again.

Seeing that she looked humbly taught, the chamberlain couldn't help but instruct more: "Your Majesty likes to see people laugh, when you see Your Majesty, you must smile happily and don't show a scared look......"

The instructions that were originally forgotten by Lin Jiaruo were mentioned by the waiter little by little, and even more detailed, and Lin Jiaruo's heart finally slowly came to fruition.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Jiaruo finally heard his name from the mouth of the waiter at the entrance of the main hall.

Side by side with Yao Shujing, he followed behind Yao Zhifu to the door of the main hall, a warm air hit, and his nose was itchy, Lin Jiaruo hurriedly lowered his head, pinched his nose and endured a sneeze.

This time he fell behind Yao Shujing, Lin Jiaruo couldn't help but panic, suddenly someone gently pushed himself behind him, and then the outer body was stripped off, and the inner servant whispered in his ear: "Come in!" ”

Lin Jiaruo hurriedly crossed the threshold, and seeing that the distance between him and Yao Shujing had been widened, he simply fell behind him until he stopped, and also kept a distance from him.

Bow down on your knees and shout long live.

The words of praise spoken by Governor Yao in front of him were difficult to understand, and the emperor's voice came from a high and distant place, blurred, Lin Jiaruo could only stand with his head down, feeling that his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

It was really hot in the hall, and although he took off his coat, Lin Jiaruo still felt sweaty on his forehead and groggy.

Suddenly, the voices ahead disappeared, and there was a moment of silence in the hall.

"Aruo!" Yao Shujing's anxious voice sounded, Lin Jiaruo looked up blankly, looked at the father and son of the Yao family whose faces had changed greatly, and felt a majestic gaze fall on him.

She struggled to stand up straight and met the gaze.

The Son of Heaven sat far above, his face blurred after the twelve beads.
