Since Mrs. Tai knew that the queen mother had sent a post to Ling Chu and invited her to the palace to participate in the banquet, she thought that she had finally waited for the opportunity.

Who knew that after waiting for so long with joy, the result was just empty joy.

Seeing that Mrs. Tai's face was elongated, the second lady was anxious, but she couldn't speak.

Since I lost my speech inexplicably, I have seen countless doctors and taken a lot of medicine, but it has no effect at all.

The second lady suspected that Ling Chu was a ghost, but there was no evidence.

If it weren't for the fact that her daughter could follow her into the palace, the second lady would not want to come.

The third lady was also anxious, "Mother..."

Mrs. Tai glanced at her, didn't say anything, and just handed her the post.

The third lady couldn't wait to take it, but after seeing the above content clearly, she looked disappointed.

The fifth girl, Ling Wei, couldn't help but step forward, and soon her face was full of displeasure.

Dong saw that their mother and daughter had changed their faces, and they were puzzled.

Immediately took the post away from the third lady.

It's just that after reading the content of the post, Dong is not as unhappy as others.

On the contrary, I breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.

He even whispered to Ling Chu, "First sister, although the queen mother only invites you one, Qing'er is your sister-in-law, and if you bring her into the palace together, the queen mother will not say anything."

With Qing'er by her side, she reminds you of the rules and etiquette, and you won't make mistakes, and you don't have to worry about bumping into the nobles. ”

Mrs. Tai was originally disappointed, but after listening to Dong's words, her heart moved.

There is no way for other granddaughters to go, but she and the Dong family are looking forward to Ling Qing being able to follow into the palace.

This is a great opportunity to make friends with the noble ladies of various families, and they are all looking forward to Ling Qing being favored and marrying back as a daughter-in-law in the future.

Dong's plan, Ling Chu guessed.

"The queen mother only invited me one, and it is not impossible for the third sister to follow. But if you're kicked out by the palace guards, don't cry to me. ”

Ling Qing's face changed, "Mother, I'm not going." ”

Although Dong was angry, he was worried that if his daughter was really kicked out of the palace in front of those noble ladies, she would definitely become a laughing stock in Kyoto.

In the end, the group came on the spot, and after waiting for a long time, they returned in disappointment.

Ling Chu was not sympathetic at all.

On the day of the banquet, Ling Chu entered the palace in a carriage according to the hour on the post.

The road was fairly smooth.

However, when he was about to arrive at the palace, he saw Wei Feng on the road.

made a gesture and signaled Yang Yun, who was driving the car, to stop.

Wei Feng walked over and said with a smile on his face, "Miss Ling, my lord told you not to worry, if you encounter something in the palace that can't be solved, you can ask someone to pass a message to him." ”

Ling Chu didn't expect that Ning Chuyi would also specially ask Wei Feng and others to pass a message to her on the way.

Although she didn't think she needed to ask him for help, she didn't want to save his face when she thought it was someone's kindness.

Seeing that she should respond, Wei Feng didn't say anything more, and rode into the palace to reply to Ning Chuyi.

When I arrived at the gate of the palace, after the guards read the post, they didn't make any trouble and waved their hands to let them go.

Ling Chu took the summer solstice and followed the father-in-law who led the way all the way to the queen's palace without squinting.

She was not too late, but there were already many noble ladies and ladies in the hall.

Young and old, each one is well-groomed, with luxurious dresses, elaborate makeup, and soft-spoken conversations.

Ling Chu didn't want to attract attention, he originally just planned to find a corner to stay at random, and leave after the banquet was over.

Unexpectedly, the queen mother suddenly beckoned to her, "But Miss Ling Chuling, come over here and let the palace take a look." ”

As soon as the queen's words fell, all the people in the hall turned their heads to look at Ling Chu.

All kinds of curiosity, envy, jealousy, disdain... 's eyes.

Ling Chu was a little surprised, he didn't expect the queen mother to suddenly talk to her in front of everyone.

Although she wanted to keep a low profile, she could only step forward to greet the queen in full view.

Those who waited to see her jokes were amazed to see her manners.

thought that she had been fostered in a Taoist temple since she was a child, and she didn't understand the rules and etiquette of the palace.

I didn't expect her to give the queen a gift, and there was no mistake.

Although there was no smile on the queen's face, her attitude was quite gentle. praised Ling Chu a few words, and then asked her what she usually did in the house.

Ling Chu did not hide it, and frankly admitted that what he usually does the most is to set up a stall to tell fortunes and help others collect debts.

The queen mother was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect her to be so frank in front of so many people, and praised her for still abiding by the master's teachings even if she left the Taoist temple and returned to Kyoto, and did not forget to study hard.

He also uses the occult arts taught by his master to help those in need, and he is kind-hearted.

The corners of Ling Chu's mouth twitched slightly, she didn't expect the queen mother to praise and praise her.

The first time the queen saw her, she didn't know anything about her. praised her like this, this is about for the sake of her master's face.

Sure enough, after the praise, the queen mother mentioned her master.

Ling Chu still admitted frankly that she didn't know when Xuanyi Zhenren would return to Beijing.

Although the queen regretted not asking anything, she could only give up.

Ling Chu just wanted to bow and retreat, but he didn't expect a noble lady on the right to suddenly wave at her.

"It turns out that you are Ling Chu, come and let me see."

Ling Chu turned his head and looked at the lady's face, which was stunned.

An indescribable feeling suddenly surged in my heart.

Seeing the kind smile in the grace and luxury, her feet subconsciously walked towards her.

Seeing her coming, the smile on the lady's face was even brighter, and she reached out and grabbed her wrist and let her sit on the brocade stool beside her.

"You are Dong Qinglan's eldest daughter, speaking of which, I still met in a hurry when you were just born. Unexpectedly, fifteen years have passed in this blink of an eye, and you have become a slim girl. ”

The first time this lady saw her, she was so kind and enthusiastic to her, the smile on her face never stopped, Ling Chu couldn't help asking, "Madame is ......?"

Whether it was a lady or a girl in this hall, they didn't take Ling Chu in their eyes originally.

Unexpectedly, the queen mother praised her again and again.

This was a surprise to everyone.

At this moment, seeing that the noble lady has a surprisingly good attitude towards her, she can't help but keep paying attention to this side openly and secretly.

A round-faced lady next to her heard Ling Chu's words and took the first step to explain her doubts, "Miss Ling, this is Princess Dingyuan." ”

Ling Chu was surprised in her heart, she and Han Yao were about to become enemies of life and death, and it was said that Princess Dingyuan should not like her.

But she didn't even see the slightest resentment or displeasure in her.

She even kept holding her hand and refused to let go.

Princess Dingyuan saw that she didn't speak, and bowed her head according to her gaze, only to realize that she had been holding the little girl's hand.

I was also stunned for a moment. (End of chapter)
