"The slave has seen Mrs. Shen, Duke Shen and Mrs. Guo."

Father-in-law Gao took his exclusive whisk and bowed his head and saluted.

"Father-in-law Gao doesn't need to be polite."

Old Madam Shen looked at Gonggong Gao with a smile and asked:

"I don't know why my father-in-law came here today?"

After hearing Old Madam Shen's question, Gonggong Gao first glanced at Shen Jiayin next to him, and then said in his sharp voice:

"Spread the queen's decree, and announce that Shen Jiayin, the daughter of Shen Guogong, will meet you~"

After a pause, Gonggong Gao said slowly:

"Miss Shen, the carriage is already waiting at the door, you and I go quickly, don't make the queen wait for a long time."

Seeing this, Lin got up and came to Grandpa Gao's side, she took off a golden jade bracelet from her hand, stuffed it into Grandpa Gao's hand, and asked softly in a whisper:

"Father-in-law Gao, I don't know what the mother is doing when she sends her little girl into the palace? Can my father-in-law give me some advice? ”

Father-in-law Gao first looked at the bracelet in his hand, and then looked at Mrs. Shen and Shen Jiayin with a smile, and said softly:

"Madame, don't worry, it's a good thing, a great thing."

After hearing Grandpa Gao's words, Lin smiled reassuringly, she looked back at Old Madam Shen and nodded, and then said to Grandpa Gao:

"Since that's the case, then I have to ask Father-in-law Gao to help take care of the little girl." "That's natural." Gao Gonggong replied with a smile.

A low-key carriage made its way through the riverside street and headed straight for the palace.

The carriage went all the way unimpeded, and when it entered the Nangong Gate, it stopped.

Although he has not been in the capital for three years, Shen Jiayin, who used to often go in and out of the palace, couldn't help but wonder when he saw the carriage stop at the Nangong Gate:

The South Palace Gate is the farthest palace gate from the queen's Kunning Palace, and it is necessary to go through most of the harem to Kunning Palace at this gate.

Shen Jiayin silently followed behind Gonggong Gao, walking step by step.

I met many palace maids along the way, some of whom still knew Shen Jiayin, and when they saw Gao Gonggong taking Shen Jiayin, they all just bowed to the side.

I don't know how long they walked before they came to the gate of Kunning Palace.

As soon as the palace maid of Kunning Palace saw Gonggong Gao with Shen Jiayin, she took the initiative to lead the way and bring her into the hall.

"The courtier Shen Jiayin has seen the queen's mother, and the mother is blessed with Jin'an."

Shen Jiayin stepped forward and bowed.

"Flat body~"

Today's queen is wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe, the pattern on the phoenix robe is simple and atmospheric, and the cuffs are also embroidered with the peony flower style of the king of flowers, which is dignified and luxurious as a whole.

She smiled kindly, stretched out her hand to Shen Jiayin and said:

"Good boy, come and sit next to this palace."

Shen Jiayin obediently put her hand on the queen's hand and obediently sat down beside the queen.

After three years of not seeing each other, the queen has not changed in the slightest, and the years have not seen any trace on her face.

"It's been three years, and Yin'er has grown into a big girl!"

The queen patted the back of Shen Jiayin's hand, looked at the slim Shen Jiayin, and couldn't help but sigh.

When you grow up, you can get married.

Shen Jiayin, who roughly understood what the queen meant, also answered with a smile:

"Although there are beauties in Jiangnan, the courtiers believe that the queen is the best-looking and most temperamental woman in the world, and the courtiers have been in Jiangnan for three years, and they have not yet met a woman comparable to the queen."

Shen Jiayin's eyes flashed and looked at the queen, and her eyes were pure and sincere.

The queen listened to the praise a lot, but Shen Jiayin's words still won the queen's heart, the queen smiled all of a sudden, she looked at Shen Jiayin happily, and asked:

"Or do you know how to make Hongu happy."

After finishing speaking, the queen beckoned to the palace maid beside her and said:

"Come, bring the dim sum you just brought from the kitchenette and give it to Yin'er to taste."

The palace maid brought the dim sum, and Shen Jiayin took a sip.

The woman in front of her is well-mannered, well-behaved, and coupled with her identity, the more she looks at it, the more satisfied she becomes.

Although that incident happened three years ago, looking at all the nobles in the capital, Shen Jiayin is still ranked first.

Shen Jiayin knew that the queen was looking at herself, since she promised her grandmother to be the crown princess, she also knew that she had to abide by the rules, she used to be rude and willful because she wanted nothing, but it didn't mean that she really had no rules.

"This mung bean cake is delicious, isn't it?"

The queen asked with a smile on her face.

"Well, it melts in the mouth, but it also has an unusual hint of freshness and sweetness, sweet but not greasy, and it is delicious."

Shen Jiayin nodded obediently and responded.

"This is made by the palace ladies who picked the nectar of winter, and the sweetness comes from this."

The queen replied with a smile, and after finishing speaking, she looked at the palace maid beside her and admonished:

"Since Yin'er likes it, then wrap up everything you made today and let Yin'er take it back to eat."

"Yes."

The maid had to order her to retreat and prepare, and Shen Jiayin also quickly got up, bent down to the queen and said:

"Thank you for the reward."

did not shirk, did not humility or arrogance to accept the reward generously, the queen looked at Shen Jiayin's eyes and appreciated it more and more.

"Come, Yin'er."

The queen took Shen Jiayin's hand and asked seriously:

"This palace asks you, what do you think of the prince?"

Finally getting to the point.

Shen Jiayin said secretly in her heart.

Shen Jiayin originally wanted to stand up and answer this question, but the queen pulled her straight, so she had to bow her head and respond:

"Back to the queen, the prince is sincere and kind, generous, and extraordinary, which is naturally excellent."

"Is that really what you're thinking?"

The queen asked with a smile back from her smile.

The majesty that belongs to the queen is all released at this time.

"Back to the queen, this is the heartfelt words of the courtier."

Shen Jiayin raised his head and replied in a deep voice.

Her eyes were bright and clear when she looked at the queen, without a trace of dust.

After being silent for a long time, the queen smiled and said:

"This palace naturally believes in you."

The queen's words were full of satisfaction.

The crown prince was born by the queen, and he was born later than the concubine, in order to make the prince better than the princess of the concubine, the queen was so-called exhausted, when she heard Shen Jiayin praise her son so much, she was naturally happy.

The queen took out a step-shaking golden hairpin from her bun and inserted it into Shen Jiayin's head.

After she finished inserting, she said with satisfaction:

"This is the Liuyun Golden Hairpin that the Queen Mother gave to the palace when the palace entered the East Palace, and it also matches your clothes today."

"Thank you for the reward."

Although Shen Jiayin has not returned for three years, the Duchess has always prepared her with the most fashionable clothes in the capital, and she still prepared them according to her preferences three years ago.

After all, whether it was in the past or now, her identity is here, and she can't be low-key.

So after Shen Jiayin went home to freshen up, she changed into a light golden chrysanthemum cloisonné dress, and she also wore a fashionable butterfly golden hairpin on her head, so the queen's flowing cloud golden hairpin is indeed very compatible with Shen Jiayin's outfit today.

"Well, you just returned to the capital today, and you were summoned by the palace, and the palace won't keep you much, so go back and talk to your grandmother."

After the queen finished speaking, she looked at the father-in-law Gao who was guarding the side and said:

"Father-in-law Gao, you send Yin'er."

Father-in-law Gao stepped forward and said with a smile on his face.

"Gotcha~"

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and gestured:

"Miss Shen, please."

At this time, there was a hint of flattery in the tone of Gao Gonggong's speech to Shen Jiayin, and they knew better than anyone what the golden hairpin sent by the queen represented.

Shen Jiayin got up and saluted the queen:

"The courtiers retired."

After seeing the queen nodding, Shen Jiayin followed Gonggong Gao, took the mung bean cake given by the queen, and left Kunning Palace.

But not long after they walked out of Kunning Palace, they met the crown prince.

The twenty-one prince is obviously different from the appearance of being only eighteen years old, and now the prince has faded a little green and a little more stable.

The prince stopped in front of Shen Jiayin like this, which made Shen Jiayin complain in his heart:

What is the auspicious day of the zodiac today, she has just returned, and there are three people blocking her way.

The prince is here alone, obviously just to wait for Shen Jiayin.

Seeing this, the high father-in-law who was in charge of leading the way in front did not need the prince's signal, so he silently retreated.

The crown prince stood with his hands crossed, standing in front of him facing the wind, and his innate royal temperament was difficult to ignore.

Shen Jiayin also stood straight, in front of the prince, he did not lose his temperament, and the aura of the two was comparable.

The prince is half a head taller than Shen Jiayin, and the phoenix hairpin given to Shen Jiayin by the queen has already seen it when the prince saw Shen Jiayin, and he looked at the phoenix hairpin with complicated eyes, not knowing what to think.

Seeing that Shen Jiayin was still like before, relying on the first emperor's dictation that he could not kneel to worship the Son of Heaven, and seeing his arrogant appearance of not bowing down, the prince couldn't help frowning.

Although he hadn't seen him for three years, when he saw the prince frowning, Shen Jiayin knew what he was thinking, but Shen Jiayin remained silent.

She is not arrogant, these are what she deserves, and since she is worthy, she will not go to bow down again in a pretended manner.

Both of them were silent for a long time, and just stood quietly.

"Do you know what the queen mother gave you about this phoenix hairpin?"

The crown prince spoke, breaking the silence.

Shen Jiayin lowered her head and replied lightly:

"Thanks to the love of the queen, what the mother wants, I am a little woman to guess."

The prince didn't expect Shen Jiayin to play Tai Chi with him, he took a deep look at Shen Jiayin.

Then, he sighed:

"Ah Yin, I already have someone in mind."

The prince's confession caught Shen Jiayin a little off guard, but since he came to find him today, I'm afraid it was also for this matter.

"Then congratulations to the prince, may the prince be happy with his lover and have unlimited love."

Shen Jiayin lowered her eyes and said without being salty.

But it was Shen Jiayin's salty and indifferent answer and her indifferent appearance that directly stimulated the prince.

The prince strode forward, grabbed Shen Jiayin's shoulder, and said through gritted teeth:

"Shen Jiayin, this prince is saying that this prince has already intended to fall in love with someone, don't be ignorant, you have to intervene!"
