Chapter 316: Palace Gate (Second Watch)
Only Han Youning and the three sisters went to the palace for a banquet in the Dingguo Mansion, and although Chu Jingjing was the second lady, she had no life and was not qualified to enter the palace.
Han Qinglian spent a lot of effort on dressing up, her clothes were expensive and elegant, although she didn't wear much on her head and face, she was precious and elegant, most of which were given to her by Han Youning.
Before she got into the carriage, she saw Han Qingwan, with a gorgeous silk dress, a pink cloak inlaid with rabbit fur, and a jeweled hair.
She snorted coldly, "My mother has just been dressed like this for a month, and she is not afraid of being struck by lightning!"
Han Qingwan said lightly, "My mother and the third sister are both Chu clans, have the third sisters forgotten?"
Han Qinglian sneered, "I don't even recognize my mother, it's really ruthless."
She got into Han Youning's carriage, and saw that Han Youning was dressed plainly, and the pile of jade bracelets on her wrists were conspicuous all over her body, and she was surprised, "Why doesn't the eldest sister wear makeup?"
Han Youning said, "The Queen Mother is a flower-viewing banquet, not a formal summons, and I don't have to be too grand."
"Then you should dress up brightly, too! You haven't seen the second sister dressed up, I don't know what kind of county lord she is!"
Han Youning smiled, "I've already made a marriage, and I'm just a foil when I came today, so why bother with those thoughts. You Yunying are unmarried, you really should dress up."
Listening to Zhao Xiang'er's meaning, the Queen Mother invited the ladies, I am afraid that she wanted to choose a princess for several princes.
Now that the prince has no wives and concubines, the three princes and the four princes have all passed the age of weak crowns, but there are only concubines, and the side rooms of the main room are empty, so it is time to choose a concubine for them.
Han Qinglian blushed, her eyes were full of longing, she had seen the crown prince and the third prince and the fourth prince, all of whom were characters of Zhilan Yushu. Especially the crown prince, handsome and powerful, the third prince and the fourth prince were bleak in front of him.
She asked, "Eldest sister, who do you say the Queen Mother will choose to be the crown princess?" Prince, what kind of woman does he like? It's really ......."
Han Youning glanced at her with a smile, "Are you really seduced by me?"
Han Qinglian said, "I don't believe what they say, but the prince does seem to like the eldest sister very much, and he liked it from the beginning."
She looked at Han Youning with envy, she had been quietly imitating Han Youning's words and deeds, hoping to bring good luck to herself because of this. But she didn't know what the prince liked about the eldest sister, and what attracted King Jin to him.
Han Youning smiled lightly, "Is it like to be nice to me?" You didn't see the prince's heart, how do you know that he really likes me?"
"He almost lost his eldest sister's life, doesn't he like it?"
Han Youning smiled, "Then is he dead?"
Han Qinglian looked at Han Youning in surprise, "Eldest sister...... You're cruel to the prince. By these words, the rumors will not be believed."
Han Youning smiled, just one sentence, what kind of ruthlessness.
When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Han Youning got out of the car.
Today, it was still the clerk who was driving, and he was always silent, his face dark.
Han Youning originally said that he and Yu Niang didn't have to be on duty these days, but early yesterday morning, the clerk came. However, Yu Niang didn't go out, I'm afraid she was afraid of attracting more gossip for her.
Han Youning said, "Steward Wen, after I enter the palace in a while, you can do something."
The clerk said, "Miss, please command."
Han Youning said, "Today is the third day of Yu Niang's return to the door, and you accompany her back to Le'anfang. Ling'er is already waiting there for me, and Huo Shan is also leading a group of dart masters to wait there for a drink."
In the end, she said, "The family affair of the prince of Jin personally witnessing the marriage, you can't be lazy. Duan Yi and Han Qing are here, you don't have to worry."
The scar on Steward Wen's face twitched, and he arched his hand, "Miss Xie!"
Without saying much, he turned and left.
There are a lot of women and nobles who enter the palace, and there are many women and nobles standing outside the palace gate, waiting for the royal forest army to check their identities and enter the palace. The advanced of the clan and the advanced grade of the high-grade.
While waiting, someone whispered, and strange disdainful eyes drifted towards Han Youning from time to time.
"I heard that she is with a Qinglou girl
The son learned a foxy skill, and fascinated the king of Jin and the crown prince."
"I saw that Jade Niang in Yuxiang Pavilion, she was really coquettish, she was not a serious person at first glance, Miss Han is afraid that she is blue, right? This man is at the age of strong blood, how can he withstand a woman's teasing?"
"It's a pity that the prince of Jin was fascinated by her, so she didn't marry......
"I don't know ...... with the prince Oh, what are you pulling me to do, and she is happy that she has done ugly things, and no one else can say it?"
Han Youning approached, their discussion stopped, and said to Han Youning with a smile, "Zhaoping, come here, take shelter from the wind here!"
Han Youning glanced at them lightly, "I'm here, and you still have to find a topic again, isn't it hard?"
The ladies and ladies laughed dryly, "The county lord is laughing, we are talking about what beautiful flowers are in the Queen Mother's Palace."
"yes, yes! I heard that the Queen Mother has a few new pots of flowers, so they look so good!"
"yes, it's still very fragrant!"
Han Youning smiled, "I didn't ask what you were talking about, why did you explain so much?"
The ladies who watched the excitement next to them let out gloating laughter.
Several people showed embarrassed looks, now that the situation is unclear, they don't dare to offend the future princess of Jin, so they only laugh.
After Han Youning left, they said in a low voice, "What's the spirit, it's hard to say if the King of Jin is willing to marry her."
"That is, who would dare to marry a woman who doesn't even know her chastity."
"No matter how happy the Lord of Jin is, he is talking about you. You say, will the Queen Mother really choose a new princess of Jin for the prince of Jin as they said?"
Han Qinglian sneered, "Second sister, if the eldest sister can't be the princess of Jin, will it be half a benefit to you?"
Han Qingwan sneered, "I'm happy, that's the biggest benefit!"
There was a sudden silence outside the palace gate, and the women stopped talking and looked at the visitors.
Zhao Chengyuan walked over in a white robe with ink in his hands, his stunning appearance and noble and powerful aura made people unconsciously obsessed and unconsciously looked up.
He walked leisurely and calmly, his breathtaking phoenix eyes were as indifferent as snow, revealing the coldness of rejecting people thousands of miles away, turning a blind eye to the admiring or obsessive gazes cast around him, and walked straight in the direction where Han Youning was.
Han Youning looked at him with a smile.
At the moment when her eyes came, the ice and snow between her eyebrows melted and warmed like spring, and the smile on the corners of her lips was peerless, stunned everyone.
He walked up to Han Youning, wrapped her somewhat cold hand in the palm of his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you bring a hand stove?"
Han Youning smiled, "I was afraid that it would be inconvenient to salute, so I didn't bring it."
He took her hand and walked towards the palace gate, and said, "There must be a surplus from the queen mother, and I will ask you for one later." His voice was low and gentle.
"No, I'm not cold."
Everyone watched in a daze as the two entered the palace gate hand in hand, and the guards didn't even check it.
Lord Jin, haven't you heard the rumors?
King Jin called himself "I" to Han Youning?
Han Youning also calls himself "me" to the prince of Jin? Don't need honorifics?
