Facts have proved that Zhang Shui'er has the potential to be a playboy.
Lu Xinran explained the rules in detail, and the three of them only played two games before she understood the essence of the gameplay.
The three of them officially started playing, and the scene became extremely lively inexplicably.
Lu Xinran didn't think there was anything wrong with peeking at her opponent's cards, and her leaked thoughts let the other two people know what kind of cards everyone had.
Lu Xinran couldn't figure out why she was the one who lost the most, even though she had been playing poker for so many years, and she still secretly knew what cards they had.
There is no room for stickers on her face!
The queen woke up and heard the noise and came over. When she entered the door, she saw three little girls playing.
Hearing Lu Xinran's confused words, and seeing Lu Xinlan and Zhang Shuier winking at each other, she stood at the door and felt that it was good to be young.
When she was young, she was as happy as they were.
At that time, she didn't have the burden of the family, and she had never experienced the pain of being a wife. She was so carefree.
"The Queen."
The three of them finished the beating and playfully pasted another note on Lu Xinran's face. Only then did they see the queen who had appeared at the door at some unknown time.
Lu Xinran reluctantly opened the note in front of her eyes and saw it clearly, "Mother, do you want to play cards with us? Can you help me win it back? They gang up to bully me!"
Unfortunately, she couldn't find any evidence of their partnership.
So angry!
The queen smiled and waved her hand: "You can play, I will just watch from the side."
"Your Majesty, the little prince next to Your Majesty has come over and said that he wants to send the eldest daughter of the Lu family over for questioning."
The three people who heard the sound immediately put down the cards in their hands. Lu Xinran hurriedly helped Lu Xinlan pull off the note from her face, and then helped her tidy up her appearance.
[How do you call sister over so calmly? 】
[Did the emperor fall in love with her? ! You said in the morning that you were going to select a daughter from a noble family. Didn't you just tell her specifically to hear it? 】
[But, didn’t he still think that she had a bad background yesterday? 】
Listening to her worried voice, Lu Xinlan vaguely guessed the emperor's intention of looking for her.
She smiled and patted her shoulder: "It's okay. You can wait for me to come back here."
Lu Xinran worriedly watched her leave with the little eunuch, then lowered her head and gathered all the cards on the table.
The queen looked at her with something new and strange in her heart.
"Don't you hate her for taking your identity?"
Lu Xinran was stunned for a moment. Of course the original person held grudges, but what he wanted more was equal care.
It's just that the two unwilling souls have gone somewhere, and she doesn't want to inherit the hatred and make herself embarrassed.
But she couldn't say this to the queen. It was rare that she didn't reveal any of her true feelings and only whispered.
"She should hold a grudge, but she is not the one who replaced us, and she is very good to me. She is the best to me in the entire Lu family, so I can't hold a grudge.
"My dear, it must be ugly to hold grudges against others, and then you have to do a lot of things to take revenge on someone. I don't want that.
"I want to look forward and live a better life in the future, so I don't want to bear grudges against her and want to live happily with her."
Although these words were 70% false, her tone was sincere, and the smile on the corners of the queen's lips gradually solidified. She narrowed her eyes slightly, and it took a long time before she laughed at herself.
"I turned out to be worse than a little girl."
She doesn't hold a grudge for having her life taken away from her, so why should she resent the emperor.
Without love, there is no hate.
In the Wenhua Hall, the emperor stood in the hall with his hands behind his hands. He did not turn around when he heard the footsteps behind him, the rustling of clothes, and then the sound of kneeling on the ground.
The girl's clear and beautiful voice immediately sounded, "I have seen Your Majesty."
"Well, get up and talk."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The rustling sound came again, and the emperor looked at the plaque above the upper hall for a long time before asking.
"Who can hear this voice?"
"Your Majesty, I only know that the courtiers and some of their family members can hear it, but the concubines and servants cannot hear it. As for why some family members can hear it and some can't, I haven't had time to find out yet."
"how long it takes?"
The emperor's voice was deep, without any fluctuation.
Lu Xinlan clenched her fist again, "My two cousins in my house could not hear it before, but they could hear it on the day of the Queen Mother's birthday party. I planned to test it out after returning to my house yesterday."
After leaving Zuichun Tower, he and Lu Xinran came to the palace.
There were so many things happening in the past few days that she was a little overwhelmed.
"I now order people to bring them into the palace."
After the emperor said this, he asked people to take her to the side hall to wait for the sisters Lu Xintong and Lu Xinling to enter the palace.
It was not until dusk began to fall that the two sisters, who had been summoned into the palace in a hurry, appeared in the side hall of Wenhua Palace.
Both of them had panic on their brows, not knowing why they were brought into the palace.
Lu Xinlan wanted to ask about the situation at home, but this was the emperor's palace, and there were eunuchs and maids outside the door. She didn't know if anyone was listening to their conversation, so she only patted the backs of their hands and asked softly.
"Xin Tong, what did you and Xin Ling do half a month before the Queen Mother's birthday party?"
"Us? We didn't do anything. Mom was always afraid that something would go wrong at our birthday party, so she pressured us to practice our manners every day."
Thinking of those half months, the two sisters almost forgot that this was a palace and wanted to complain a bit.
Lu Xinlan pursed her lips and said, "Think about it carefully and recall everything."
"Us?" Lu Xinling glanced at her sister: "Does it matter that my mother gave me and my third sister a farm and a shop each? She said that when we get older, we should start learning how to take care of our dowry."
"Grange shop?"
Lu Xinlan's heart moved slightly as she thought about the day she met Zhang Shui'er for the first time. She was surrounded by girls from small official families.
That time, it seemed that only Zhang Shui'er heard Lu Xinran's thoughts.
"Good sister, can you tell me where these farm shops are and how much they are worth?"
Lu Xinling glanced at her sister again, and seeing Lu Xintong nodding slightly, she said, "Mom said these should be worth about five thousand taels. When we are older, she will add more to us."
Five thousand taels!
After getting the answer, Lu Xinlan hugged her two sisters hard.
"Someone will take you out of the palace in a moment, don't be afraid."
As she said this, she was about to report back to the emperor, but Lu Xintong grabbed her wrist anxiously.
"Eldest sister, when will you and the second sister go home? My grandmother is sick, my third uncle has been imprisoned, and the whole family is in chaos. When will you come back?"
When Lu Xinlan heard that Pei was ill, her heart suddenly tightened. Just as she was about to ask her what was wrong, she heard Eunuch Fu's voice coming from outside the palace.
"Miss Lu, Your Majesty will send you over."
"Yes, please excuse me, Eunuch Fu. My daughter will come over right away."
She held Lu Xintong's hand back with a little force: "Go back and tell your mother how hard you have troubled her these past few days."
