Yongshou Palace,
Daiyu followed Yue Xi and Xichun, her eyes a little strange, who was this little girl in front of her.
Even the queen actually gave her face. Thinking about the situation just now, it still made her tremble.
She thought Xichun was just messing around in the house! Unexpectedly, when she came out, she would still have the same lawless temper. Just now, Fan Zhixuan almost couldn't get off the stage. By then, she might be dead.
"I heard that you grew up with Jia Qi?"
"yes!"
"What was Jia Qi like when he was a child??"
"Is there anything he particularly likes?"
"Well, probably not!! But every time I go to see Brother Qi, I will bring him peach blossom cakes!!"
"Peach blossom cake??"
"Yes!! I went to listen to the stories at first, but they were not for nothing!!"
"He told stories. I brought him peach blossom cakes, and he talked while eating them. After eating, he wouldn't tell them anymore!!"
"In the beginning, I secretly brought more in order to listen a little longer, but no matter how much I brought, the stories he told only lasted for a while!"
In front, Yuexi and Xichun were chatting, and Daiyu followed behind. She didn't take it seriously at first, but when she heard that the two were talking about Jia Qi's childhood, she also listened carefully.
Yue Xi pursed her lips and smiled when she heard Xichun's words.
"Oh! So that's it! Have you ever thought that he can control the speed at which he eats? Unless he can't finish eating, bringing an extra piece or two won't change the situation at all! !」
Hearing Yue Xi's words, Xichun frowned, thinking that this was true.
Thinking of the time when she had wrapped the peach blossom cake in a handkerchief and hid it in her sleeve in order to listen a little longer, she couldn't help but pouted and hummed: "This bad brother~~"
Yue Xi heard the duplicity of Xichun's words and said with a smile: "Bad brother??"
Xichun blushed, looked away, and didn't answer at all, showing her daughter-like attitude.
After taking another two steps, Xichun asked softly: "By the way, who are you?? You are so courageous. If you hadn't rescued me just now, I would have suffered!!"
Yuexi smiled secretly.
"You still know how to be afraid!! In the harem, I have never seen anyone dare to talk to the queen mother like that. Fortunately, it is you two. If it had been anyone else, I am afraid they would have been beaten to death with sticks!!"
Speaking of this, Yue Xi seemed to feel that she had said too much and couldn't help but stick out her tongue.
"The Queen Mother is the most strict about rules. Normally, the ladies who are harmonious about their lives are very cautious in their words and deeds after they come here. They don't dare to be negligent at all. The ladies in the palace don't do anything except sleeping in the morning and dusk every day. People want to play there!"
My name is Yue Xi, you should have heard of it before, right? ! I am the youngest daughter of my father, and my mother is Concubine Shu. My father is relatively close to me on weekdays, so my mother is willing to give me some face! "
Now that she has calmed down, Daiyu pondered for a moment after hearing this, looking at Yuexi, but thinking about what happened before.
The princess named Yue Xi was favored in the harem not only because of her young age. If she hadn't had the ability to adapt to changes just now, Fan Zhixuan probably wouldn't have let go easily.
"By the way, I remember Miss Lin's name is Daiyu! Just now I was patronizing and talking to Miss Xichun, and I ignored Miss Lin. It's Yuexi's fault!!"
Just when Daiyu was thinking about those things, a voice suddenly came over. Daiyu raised her head and saw the princess named Yue Xi looking at her with a smile.
"Lin Daiyu has met Her Royal Highness the Princess!!"
Daiyu was about to see the gift, but was suddenly stopped by Yue Xi.
"Girl, don't be like this. You are the unmarried wife of the champion. The queen is the only woman in the world who can accept your courtesy. No one else has this qualification!!"
Hearing this, Daiyu was stunned, and a blush quickly passed between her eyebrows. Such a thing was brought out publicly, which still made her feel sad.
Somewhat shy.
That's right, it's shyness, not disgust. This kind of polar opposite difference was quietly completed in the Daming Palace today.
She seemed to think that having such a fiancé would be good.
Every woman has a desire to compare. It’s just that some people are stronger and some are weaker, and Daiyu is no exception. Just like the little girl in the original novel who gets jealous over trivial things, in the final analysis, the unawakened girl will eventually Still a mortal.
Today, she met the Queen in Kunning Palace, the most noble woman in the world. She felt a strange sense of satisfaction when she thought that the other party had to rely on Jia Qi and her own man if he wanted to take revenge. .
When Xichun saw the shy look on Daiyu's cheeks, her heart suddenly trembled, and she thought to herself, could it be that Sister Lin has regained her memory? ?
When she thought of this, the little girl couldn't hold it in any longer. As Daiyu's best friend, she knew what Daiyu, who had never lost her memory, was thinking. If that were the case, her plan would be in vain.
"Sister Lin, do you still remember the Taoist priests from Wudang Mountain??"
So Xichun tentatively asked, and the person she asked was none other than the person who hurt Daiyu the most in the Xuedao Storybook. His name was Hong Xixiang.
Daiyu frowned when she heard Xichun's words. Although she got the storybook again from Zijuan, she had not read it yet, and her memory had not awakened. Naturally, she didn't know who Xichun was talking about.
Xichun felt relieved when he saw Daiyu's confused expression.
Fortunately, Lin Daiyu did not regain her memory.
However, she made a calculation in her mind. At this time, Daiyu seemed to no longer refuse to become Jia Qi's wife. This was not good news for her.
She had to find a way to get her brother Qi as soon as possible. Even if she couldn't have it alone, she had to be the most important one.
But when she thought of this, she got a headache. Her identity was too embarrassing at the moment. As Jia Qi's sister, if people knew that she had such thoughts, not only her, but even Jia Qi would be infamy.
This is not what she wants.
Suddenly Xichun heard a word coming to her ear.
"Taoist priests from Wudang Mountain? Do you still know the Taoist priests there?"
It was Yue Xi who said this. At this time, Yue Xi also had some doubts in her eyes. She knew that Wudang Mountain was a Taoist mountain, and there were people from there in the palace.
However, those people are rarely seen. They usually stay in Qintian Prison.
Only once or twice did she see them in the Imperial Study Room, but only from a distance. Later, she heard the young eunuch in the Imperial Study Room say that those people were Taoist priests from Wudang Mountain.
Xichun pursed her lips. She had never seen a Taoist priest from Wudang Mountain before. What she was talking about was just the Taoist priest in the storybook, looking at Princess Yuexi with an inquiring look.
She was in a dilemma for a moment.
This is in the palace, not in the prince's mansion. There are some things in that script that are very sensitive. It was also for this reason that the old lady drove away Jia Qi.
Yuexi's identity is too special. If the script gets into the eyes of the royal family, it may become a trigger.
But if she didn't tell the story, how could she justify herself? She didn't think much about these things at first, but as soon as a thread was pulled up, other things started to slip away. Was she going to turn a blind eye?
What would she say if she said it was a real person? ?
Why would I ask Daiyu this question?
Now she was suddenly stuck in a dead end.
Fortunately, Yuexi is not the kind of person who asks questions. Seeing Xichun hesitating, she guessed something. What did the three girls talk about Taoist priests! !
"I must have seen it when I went to the mountains to perform rituals during the Chinese New Year!! However, most of these Taoist priests are pure-hearted and stoic people. They are very boring. I saw a few of them in the Imperial Study Room last time!!"
Seeing Yuexi brush this matter off,
Xichun couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and felt more favorable towards this princess.
Zijuan, who was following Daiyu, was shocked. She guessed who Xichun was talking about, and immediately looked at Daiyu with a strange look in her eyes. She was also wondering, could it be that Miss Lin has recovered her memory?
However, when she saw that the look in Daiyu's eyes did not change much, she temporarily extinguished her thoughts.
On the way after that, Xichun was no longer as childlike as before, but before speaking, he thought about whether it would bring trouble to himself and his brother Qin.
Daiyu didn't change much. She was more cautious when she entered the palace. He was not as rampant as Xichun.
After about a cup of tea, several people turned from the corridor outside Yongshou Palace into the courtyard of Yongshou Palace.
Yuexi led the two women into the hall first.
"Father, my concubine has brought it to you!! Is there any reward!!"
As soon as Xichun and Daiyu entered the door, they saw a man wearing a bright dragon robe sitting on the right hand side of the main hall. In ancient times, the right was usually respected, just like when an official was promoted, it was usually said to move to the right or to be demoted. It would be said that they moved to the left.
When they saw this person, the two women knew who the other person was without even saying much.
"People's daughter Lin Daiyu and people's daughter Jia Xichun pay their respects to the emperor!!"
The two women bent down, made a blessing, and then stood aside with their little heads hanging.
Emperor Mingkang said with a smile: "Don't be nervous. I've heard that little bastard Jia Qi tell you that one of you is the apple of Lin Aiqing's eye. But I heard your father say before that your health has never been good. Today you look good." good!!"
"And you, Jia Xichun, Jia Qi lost his father before he was born. His mother left when he was very young. He was considered a little transparent in your Dongfu back then. If it weren't for your few peach blossom cakes, my I'm afraid the champion will die at Duke Ning's house. Speaking of which, I have to thank you very much!"
Daiyu and Xichun were stunned. This was their first meeting with Emperor Mingkang. Emperor Mingkang's words did not sound like an emperor who ruled the world, but rather like an elder.
"Your Majesty, I want both girls to sit down!!!"
At this moment, Concubine Shu stood up from her seat and said with a smile.
When Emperor Mingkang heard this, he naturally agreed and said to the young eunuchs and maids serving in the room: "What my beloved concubine said is, if someone comes, give me a seat!!"
