The spring feast came as scheduled.

The female relatives of the Lin family who entered the palace to attend the banquet were He and Lin Yueman, Lin Jing and Lin Yi'an sisters.

Early in the morning, three incense carts had been neatly parked at the gate of the Lin Mansion.

The spring breeze is warm, Lin Yi'an wears a wide-sleeved gown with Hunan pigment flowers, a hundred-fold skirt with Baoxiang Linghua, a turmeric waist seal, and a soft yarn with milk. came with the hand-style of Lin Baiwei, who was dressed in red.

He stood at the door of the Lin Mansion and looked at it from a distance, only to see two graceful women, one plain and one beautiful, like two walls.

"Let the second aunt wait for a long time." Lin Yi'an was slightly blessed.

He smiled and said, "Where, it is my duty to take care of you." Get in the car, the incense has been lit for you, and the tea and snacks are ready. When entering the palace today, you must be polite and not provoke right and wrong. ”

"Yes." Sister Lin Yi'an replied softly.

He Shi told them a few more words before letting their sisters get into the car, and after going to the front to tell Lin Yueman and Lin Jing, he was relieved to get into the car.

The incense cart drove slowly, stopping and stopping all the way, and only stopped at the gate of the imperial city at the end of the day.

After getting off the bus, the group stood on one side, and only after the guards checked the list and number of people did they change into the soft Jiao in the palace.

The vermilion door slowly opened, revealing a solemnity and luxury that was completely different from the outside world.

The carved balustrade is right in front of you, glowing with a charming luster. The golden tiles of the tall palace are glittered by the spring sun. No wonder it is said that the palace is the most luxurious place in the world.

Lin Baiwei pulled Lin Yi'an's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Sister, this place is really big. ”

The dwelling place of the Son of Heaven is the desire of all the people, how can it not be big?

Lin Yueman gently lifted the corner of the curtain and saw a few eunuchs in dark blue clothes and Gong E, who were wearing uniform buns, bowing their heads and stepping on small steps, hurriedly walking past the sedan chair.

She lowered the curtains, this was the palace she had dreamed of entering, it was so luxurious and desirable.

Thinking of Lin Zhenwen's entrustment to himself before leaving, Lin Yueman showed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, if he could get the help of the Lin family, the position of the crown princess would definitely be able to win a lot.

What young general Mu Cheng, this time when she entered the palace, she wanted to see Tang Jingyuan, the prince of the East Palace.

The sedan chair finally stopped.

It was a Tsing Yi Gong'e who came to greet her, she took a step forward and saluted dignifiedly: "Second Mrs. Lin, the queen has summoned you." ”

He was originally from a merchant family, and this was the first time she had entered the palace for a banquet since she was in charge of the family, and she was a little nervous and said: "The courtiers are in charge." After speaking, she motioned to a few Lin family girls behind her to follow her footsteps.

Neither asked her name nor who the queen summoned, and sure enough, she was from a small family. Gong E's heart was secretly distressed, so she only stopped in front of the He family with her hand, and bent down and said, "Second Mrs. Lin, the queen mother only saw you and Miss Lin Er and Miss Lin Liu." Gong E's afterglow caught a glimpse of the other Lin family girls, and said, "Madame, don't worry, the other two young ladies have their own people to lead the way for them." ”

The Heavenly Family intends to marry Lin Yi'an and Mu Cheng, and it is reasonable for the queen to summon them. As for why he wanted to see Lin Yueman, others didn't know the reason, but Lin Yi'an had already guessed seven or eight points.

Lin Zhenwen is now promoted to the head of the household department, and it is only a matter of time before he gains a firm foothold, if the prince marries the daughter of the Lin family, it is equivalent to mastering the world's treasury, at least something like the seizure of Longshouqu's silver money will never happen again.

"Queen Mother, Second Lady Lin and the two young ladies of the Lin family have arrived." The eunuch at the corner gate reported outside the door with a sharp voice.

"Xuan."

The curtain made of streamer forging was rolled up, and Tsing Yi Gong'e walked inside with ease.

He rubbed his hands nervously and followed in.

Different from the majestic and solemn appearance in the imagination, the woman sitting on the golden phoenix chair has a gentle smile on her face, two white jade pendants on her ears, a butterfly with gold silk hanging around her neck, and a phoenix crown on her head, embedded with a brilliant ruby, and the nine-tailed phoenix spreads its wings and is ready to fly.

There is no aggressive momentum, but the nobility and beauty flowing from the bones are impossible to despise.

The first time I met, a group of threesome kneeling and bowing.

"The courtesy Lin He and the two daughters of the family visited the queen, and the queen was extremely happy-"

"No." The queen's slender hand was raised, "Don't be restrained, just sit down." ”

Having said that, He Shi was even more nervous, the heavenly family was majestic, and she even sweated in her palms.

In comparison, the two young ladies of the Lin family are much more decent.

Especially, it is the girl who is farthest away from her, sitting upright, and her eyes are not glancing, which shows that she has a calm personality.

"Who is Miss Lin Liu?" The queen asked.

Lin Yi'an, who was sitting at the end, got up and said, "The courtier Lin Yi'an asked the queen to say goodbye." ”

"It's a polite child." The queen's bright eyes showed appreciation, "But have you learned the rules of the palace in advance?" ”

"Back to my mother, I never deliberately went to study. They are all taught by the teacher during the weekday lessons. Lin Yi'an replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

He Shi answered: "The queen mother, these two nieces and daughters of the courtiers are all studying under Nangong Jing. ”

The queen frowned, and didn't care about He's rash faux pas, and only said: "When Nangong Jing was appointed as Shangyi, she was also the right-hand man of the palace. Being able to worship under her door shows that Lord Lin and Mrs. Lin have taken great pains in raising their children. ”

Nangong Jing came to the Lin Mansion because of whose face, and the He family knew it in his heart, so he didn't dare to answer again, so he only responded in a sneering manner.

The queen diverted the topic: "The palace heard about a beautiful incident outside the imperial city a few days ago. ”

The so-called beautiful thing naturally refers to the fact that the heroes of Mucheng saved the United States.

"The so-called grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by springs. What's more, it's a life-saving grace, has Miss Lin Liu thanked Xuanwu Hou well? The queen asked with a smile.

Lin Yi'an lowered his head: "The grace of the Hou Ye's life-saving grace is remembered by the courtiers." The father has already come to thank him, but the courtiers know that this favor is difficult to repay, and they will definitely make a grass ring in the future to repay the kindness of the marquis. ”

The queen nodded lightly, the original intention of this summons was to see how the Lin family's women behaved, one was for Mu Cheng, and the other was for the crown prince. Her eyes fell on Lin Yueman's body: "Second Miss Lin, how old is this year?" ”

Lin Yueman was sitting quietly at this time, with her hands folded on her laps, quite like Miss Chang. She bowed and said: "Back to the queen's mother, the courtiers are rabbits, and they turned fifteen last month." ”

The queen glanced at Lin Yueman slightly, and she said as usual: "The palace is also a little tired, Chunhe, take them to the imperial garden." ”

The group got up and retreated, and went to the imperial garden with Chunhe.

The queen turned her head sideways and asked the big eunuch in scarlet clothes behind her: "Xu Quan, what do you think of the two young ladies of the Lin family?" ”

"Both young ladies know how to count etiquette. The slave looked at Miss Lin Liu more calmly. Xu Quan bowed and said.

The queen just asked her age, and Miss Lin Er said her genus together. not only lost her calm and dignified, but also showed her utilitarian heart, on the other hand, Miss Lin Liu's advance and retreat were more like a grandmother.

"Niangniang, Your Highness's ......," Xu Quan asked tentatively.

The queen thoughtfully turned the transparent purple jade bracelet on her wrist and said lightly.

"She can't afford the honor of the crown princess."
