When the leaves of the autumn cool sycamore fall, the empty courtyard looks at the Yao step bell.

The sound of autumn rain, the past love.

Early this morning, all the servants in the palace went to the Qingyu Pavilion where I lived in Shou'an Palace. I was very busy in front of me, so lively.

Ming'er, it is the day when I marry Wang Rong Haoxuan of Ding'an, and Liuyun remembers that I once had kindness to him, and I am specially allowed to marry out of the palace. In fact, none of these are in line with the palace rules, after all, I have no identity in the palace, and at best I can only be regarded as a nameless and shareless subordinate.

I don't know if he is ashamed of me, so he will avoid it until now.

Yulan and Xiyun also arrived early, counting the wedding rewards sent by the emperor behind me, while Yue'er and Xilian were busy answering.

I looked at a room full of silk and jewelry, and my expression was very solemn, and I didn't know if this was a blessing or a disaster.

Yu Lan handed me a string of shiny gems in her hand, and said lightly: "Miss, Ming'er, you should wear this string of gems!" It's beautiful. I glanced at her and frowned slightly, "It's better to be ordinary, these precious things are not necessary." ”

Yulan withdrew her hand slightly, revealing a smile, "These are all rewards from the emperor, those who marry out of the palace, I'm afraid only a princess can have such grace, the emperor has always been different to you." Her words suddenly sobered me up a lot. Her smile also made me a little strange.

"Niangniang, Song Liu is married to the prince, although she is a side concubine, but she can be regarded as a promotion to a prince and noble, these rewards from the emperor are not exaggerated!" Xiyun seemed to be a little dissatisfied, with a look on his face and an extremely unkind tone.

Xiyun doesn't seem to have a good impression of Yulan all along. However, no matter how Yulan says it, she is the mother of the palace, and Xiyun should be treated with courtesy according to the number of courtesies. Even if the emperor trusts her, the future may not be easy. I'll talk about her when I have time.

Yulan glanced at her, pursed her lips and smiled, and said nothing else.

I watched carefully at the change in Yulan's expression, she seemed to be a little strange today.

At this time, Father-in-law Yu came in from outside, saw Yulan and bowed down and said, "Niangniang Wanfu." Yu Lan restrained her smile when she heard this, glanced at him and said clearly: "Why did Grandpa Yu come over, could it be that the emperor has made some will." ”

Father-in-law Yu lowered his eyebrows and paused, then looked up at me with a deep smile, "Miss Liu, the emperor has decreed that you will come to Zhaoren Hall to meet you." ”

I was a little shocked, and just as I was about to raise my lips, Yulan grabbed ahead of me, "Father-in-law Yu, Ming'er is a good day for my sister to marry the prince, why did the emperor suddenly summon my sister?" ”

I turned to look at Yulan, she smiled a little stiffly, and Father-in-law Yu replied to her respectfully, "This is the emperor's dictation, and the slave doesn't know what it is, the mother doesn't want to ask more, the emperor has always disliked others to ask too much." ”

"Presumptuous!! Isn't it okay to ask this palace? Don't think that if you are the person next to the emperor, this palace can't do anything to you! Yulan turned the gentle anger just now, and shocked me, when, she became like this. Yulan, who used to be timid and scared, seems to be gone.

Father-in-law Yu was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, "Niangniang forgives her sins, and the slave is only acting on orders." ”

I glanced at Yulan, stepped forward to help Gonggong Yu up, and then said lightly: "The servants in the palace are all acting on orders, so why bother." ”

Yulan looked at him coldly and snorted, "Sister, have you forgotten that we were also bullied in the past, and we had no status in the palace, so what was it like?" Even minions can ride on top of you. ”

"It's because you have no status, so you let the master bully, you and I both understand this truth, so why blame your subordinates." I pulled out a smile without a smile, and I couldn't distinguish the change in Yulan.

She used to be so naïve. I don't know her now.

Yu Lan's eyes instantly darkened a lot, and she said with concern: "My sister is always so kind, I'm really afraid that I will be framed in the future, and you will speak for others." ”

I lowered my eyebrows and smiled, turned my head and said openly to Yu Gong: "Father-in-law, please!" ”

A hint of strangeness flashed on Father-in-law Yu's face, and then he bowed his head and turned to go out.

"I'll go back as soon as I go, Yulan, you go back to the palace to rest first! Xiyun is here to take care of it. I looked back and said a word, and then followed Yu Gonggong and left with him.

When passing by the Imperial Garden, Father-in-law Yu spoke in front of me: "Miss Liu and Lan Zhaoyi are sisters?" ”

I was surprised for a moment and replied, "Didn't the emperor ever tell you?" ”

"We are slaves, the emperor doesn't say it, we don't dare to ask more, the miscellaneous family only knows that Lan Zhaoyi used to be the personal servant of the prince of Ding'an, and was promoted to Zhaoyi after being favored by the emperor. I never knew that Zhaoyi Niangniang and Miss Liu had such a relationship. ”

I sighed and said without scruples: "Lan Zhaoyi and I have lived together since we were very young, although she is not my own sister, but we are like relatives. ”

Father-in-law Yu smiled differently, lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, "The miscellaneous family thinks it's strange, Miss Liu and Lan Zhaoyi, their personalities are so different, how can they be sisters!" ”

He spoke very quietly, but I could hear it very clearly.
