After Lin Jinyan returned home, she went directly to Songmao Hall and told the old lady about today's trip to the palace, hiding the affairs of the little princess and the jade concubine and the little prince.
The old lady heard that both the Queen and the Queen Mother were very fond of Lin Jinyan. The smile on her face accumulated gentle wrinkles, and she bluntly said that she would make more good clothes for Lin Jinyan.
Lin Jinyan smiled and said: "Grandma, Yan'er is just growing tall. Even if you make too many good clothes, you won't be able to wear them for a long time. Why don't you make two for each of your cousins?"
The old lady's eyes were filled with satisfaction: "Yan'er has really grown up. Did you speak to the Crown Princess when you saw her today?"
Lin Jinyan: "We just met at the entrance of the Queen's Palace. We saluted and said hello and didn't talk much."
The old lady sighed with emotion: "Time is not forgiving. A few years ago, I saw her before she even had haircuts. In the blink of an eye, she was married and became a princess."
Lin Jinyan asked puzzledly: "Are grandma and the Crown Princess familiar with each other?"
Old lady: "The Crown Princess's grandfather, Taishi Yao, was the disciple of the emperor today. When he was young, he had a close personal relationship with your grandfather. At that time, my grandmother also had a close relationship with the Taishi's wife."
Lin Jinyan: "Why do we no longer have contact with the Yao family?"
The old lady sighed: "The wife of the Grand Master died of illness in the 14th year of Sheng'an. The Grand Master Yao was so sad that she closed the door and thanked guests. After His Majesty granted her granddaughter a marriage, he began to practice Taoism outside the city and did not involve himself in court matters. Even the Crown Princess He only showed up briefly during the wedding. Your grandfather went to see him a few times, but he was so focused on practicing Taoism that he never saw your grandfather. Over the years, the two families gradually lost contact. "
Lin Jinyan: "This is the first time I've heard of it."
Old lady: "It's all our generation's past, how could you, a child, know about it?"
As she spoke, the old lady looked outside the house, her thoughts drifting to a few decades before things changed, with a hint of sadness and regret in her tone.
"Master Yao was born in a poor family. When he was young, he met Sister Mu in the most miserable situation. After they got married, Sister Mu made a living by making pastries, which allowed Master Yao to develop his ambitions in the officialdom. How many people would marry Master Yao after he became a distinguished person? , wanted him to divorce Sister Mu, Taishi Yao refused to listen and scolded her away... We have been together for a lifetime, and Sister Mu's departure is like taking away Taishi Yao's soul."
Lin Jinyan: "No wonder the Crown Princess made cakes for the Queen herself. She must have learned the craftsmanship from Mrs. Yao."
The old lady's smile was full of nostalgia: "Huining often watched Sister Mu making pastries when she was a child. I think she was pretty good."
Seeing that the old lady was feeling lonely, Lin Jinyan stayed in Songmao Hall and chatted with the old lady until the old lady became happy, and Lin Jinyan had dinner with her before returning to Yan Yuxuan.
Within two days, Mobei came to deliver the property and war horses in exchange for Lu Sang.
The war horses stayed outside the city. The mighty motorcade attracted the people of Tai'an City to join in the fun and booed around the motorcade.
The leader of Mobei who was in charge of escorting was named Gewei. Ever since he entered Tai'an City, his originally dark face had turned into a black man. If it weren't for the purpose of this trip, Gewei would have wanted to draw his sword and massacre the city.
Gu Yichen had booked a private room in the teahouse opposite the hotel early. After having the morning meal, he dragged Gu Ruizhou to the teahouse and sent someone to call Princess Lin Jinyan Yanling and Chu Chengyi.
Lin Jinyan would never come to such an occasion in her previous life, but now Lin Jinyan was in urgent need of all kinds of news. Gu Yichen sent someone to invite her, and Lin Jinyan came with Bai Zhi and Hong Jiu.
