The two entered the palace chatting and laughing, and the female officer next to the queen picked them up to meet the queen.
After bowing and taking their seats, the queen chatted with the two of them lovingly, as cordially as her elders. When the conversation was very pleasant, Concubine Xian and Concubine Rou brought the little princess to Fengqi Palace to pay their respects.
After greeting each other, Concubine Rou took the little princess to sit down and smiled softly:
"The queen's place is very lively from morning to night. Is this Mrs. Lin's granddaughter?"
Lin Jinyan stood up and said, "As I said to Concubine Rou, she is indeed my daughter."
Concubine Rou: "As expected, the Lin family has a clean and upright style. I remember General Dingbei is your grandfather, right?"
Lin Jinyan said respectfully, "Yes."
Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Miss Lin is more than just the style of the Lin family. When she faced Tianyan in front of the palace that day, ordinary children would have been frightened and cried. Miss Lin is neither humble nor arrogant, and has the style of a military general of the Gu family."
The Queen sat upright and looked at Lin Jinyan smiling lovingly.
"It is indeed rare for Jinyan to be so stable at such a young age. Why are you standing? Feel more comfortable in Fengqi Palace and sit down to talk."
Lin Jinyan thanked her obediently and sat down peacefully.
Concubine Xian's eyes flickered and her smile continued: "The Queen likes this child very much. No wonder, this child is so well-behaved, and I like it very much."
Seeing that both of them were praising Lin Jinyan, the little princess glared at Lin Jinyan several times unhappily.
Princess Yanling: "Oh, I'm just unpopular, no one likes me."
The queen smiled and said: "If you don't like it, where can I let you come into the palace to accompany me?"
Concubine Xian also smiled and said: "I was going to praise you for being quiet and polite today, but you didn't hold back."
Princess Yanling laughed when she heard this: "I was waiting to be praised. I waited for a long time and didn't mention it, so I couldn't help it, which made the imperial concubine laugh."
Concubine Rou: "We have watched Yan Ling grow up, who wouldn't like her? It's rare for Yan Ling to have a handkerchief, so this Miss Lin is really special."
Princess Yanling glanced at Lin Jinyan and said proudly: "What Concubine Rou said is that Lin Jinyan is not only liked by the Queen, but also praised by the Imperial Grandmother. She even gave Lin Jinyan a glazed palace lantern to play with."
The little princess heard this and asked anxiously: "Is it the palace lantern with the birds on it?"
Princess Yanling: "That's the one."
The little princess glared at Lin Jinyan fiercely, turned around and lay in Concubine Rou's arms and cried loudly.
"Mother Concubine, Yun Xi saw that palace lantern first. The Imperial Grandmother said that she would give it to Yun Xi when he grew older. Why was she deceived? Concubine Mother, woo woo... Yun Xi wants that lantern. ."
The Queen said warmly: "What a child's heart. The Queen Mother personally rewarded it. How can you call it a lie? How can you get it back?"
Seeing her only daughter crying so wronged, Concubine Rou's heart ached. Patting Yunxi's back gently, she helped Yunxi get away while coaxing her gently.
"Queen, Yunxi is still a child with no restraints."
The Queen smiled and said: "As His Majesty's youngest daughter, Yunxi will inevitably be spoiled. It doesn't matter. I believe Jinyan will also understand."
Lin Jinyan: "What the Empress said is that the little princess is still young, so Concubine Rou does not have to worry about it."
The queen's smile became even bigger: "How old are you now? You know the rules and etiquette. By the way, go get my pair of jade rabbit palace lanterns. Yunxi and Jinyan will have one each."
Lin Jinyan stood up, took the palace lantern from Shunyi's hand, and thanked her obediently.
Yunxi looked at the queen and said aggrievedly: "Mother, these are a pair, please give one to Yunxi."
