The weeping begonias in the Royal Garden have lush leaves and flowers, and the clusters of flowers are bent and drooping. If they are fluttering in the breeze, they are delicate and red and beautiful.
Under the exquisite-looking pavilion, the concubines were dressed in colorful dresses. Each one of them was more delicate than the flowers, and their appearance was more eye-catching than the flowers in the imperial garden. People didn't know whether to look at the people first or the flowers first.
Juan Juan and the others went around under the crabapple tree, so the concubines didn't notice.
Based on the idea that one thing more is worse than one thing less, Lin asked Xu Fu to take them around here and avoid meeting if they could avoid it.
Juanjuan's eyes were lingering.
[Ah~ there are so many beautiful sisters, we have to say goodbye to Juanjuan just after we meet~]
In the pavilion, the concubines' conversation could be heard.
"Sister Shuyi said it's not afraid that walls have ears. It would be bad if the imperial concubine heard her."
"What concubine? She is Concubine Wen now~ She has the same status, how can she show off in front of me now~"
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the imperial concubine has completely fallen out of favor. Not only did something happen to the sixth prince, but the Wen family was also in bad shape. Everyone knew that Wen Ruoyu would never be able to stand up again.
Several concubines were chatting and laughing. Lin's steps paused, but did not stop. Instead, she walked faster.
The less you know about this kind of thing, the better. In the palace, people who are too curious often cannot survive.
As soon as she finished thinking this, Lin heard Juanjuan's loud protest in her mind.
[Juan Juan wants to listen, Juan Juan hasn’t heard enough yet! Why did my mother walk so fast! 】
Lin: "..." Little idiot.
She didn't stop, but walked hurriedly, for fear of hearing something she shouldn't hear.
After getting a little further away from the place of dispute, Mrs. Lin turned around and saw a pointed corner of the pavilion in the distance hidden by the flowers and trees, and breathed a sigh of relief.
A smile appeared on Xiaofu's face and he pulled her gaze back, "The scenery here is good. The young masters in the palace like to gather together to enjoy the flowers."
Lin's eyes flashed, but she just smiled and said nothing.
There was movement in the flowers on the right side of the path, and Juanjuan seemed to feel a not-so-splendid aura. She stared at the grass warily.
"Meow-" A white cat suddenly jumped out and rushed toward Mrs. Lin.
Mrs. Lin's eyes tightened and she staggered back a few steps. Her first reaction was to tightly hug Juan Juan into her arms.
"Where did this wild cat come from?" Xiaofu was unexpectedly agile. He stood in front of Mrs. Lin and pinched the back of the white cat's neck with one hand. Then he looked at her and asked nervously, "Madam, are you okay? ?”
The white cat meowed, and Mrs. Lin said softly, "It's okay, your skills are quite good."
Xiaofu scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled shyly, "Our family learned martial arts from my father for several years before entering the palace."
Mrs. Lin smiled and nodded without asking any more questions.
The sanctioned white cat stared at its four legs with disapproval, and cursed in its mouth. Only those who can understand cat language would know how dirty it was.
"Stupid slave, put me down quickly!"
It made a fuss for a while, and when no one paid attention to it, it looked at the only person present who could understand what it was saying.
"Xiaoyu, let this slave put me down quickly!"
Juanjuan turned away silently, pretending not to hear.
She didn't want to help this rude cat.
The white cat was so angry that it fluttered around. Finally, it seemed that it couldn't fight anymore and calmed down. Its round cat eyes turned, and when the intimidation failed, it started to induce.
"Xiaoyu, I know there is a fish hidden in this palace that can turn into a human like you. Do you want to go and see it?"
Juan Juan's interest was really aroused, her little ears moved, but she still had her back to the white cat and did not turn around.
Seeing that she seemed interested, the white cat quickly continued: "I saw her once. My master's mother often used a knife to bleed him. One time, I followed her and wanted to take a bite, but I was killed mercilessly. Throw it out.”
"But she is a little different from you. I can tell at a glance that you are a fish, but she is both a human and a fish."
Juan Juan finally turned his head to look at it. Seeing this, the white cat fluttered excitedly and unleashed its final move.
"I know where she is now. Ask this human to let me go, and I will take you to see her!"
In the end, Juan Juan's curiosity prevailed. She hugged Mrs. Lin's neck and coquettishly said, "Mom, Juan Juan wants to play with the kitten~"
Mrs. Lin was slightly startled and looked at the white cat in confusion.
Doesn’t Juanjuan hate cats the most?
"Are you okay~Mother~"
No normal person can bear such a cute little dumpling acting softly and coquettishly in his arms.
Ms. Lin smiled and nodded her little nose, "Of course."
She looked at Xiaofu, the gentle and doting smile in her eyes had not faded away, and said warmly, "Eunuch Xiaofu, please put down the white cat and play with Juan Juan for a while."
"Madam, this cat knows how to scratch people."
Mrs. Lin believed that Juanjuan could protect herself. She smiled and said, "It's okay, just put it down."
Xiaofu said nothing more and put the white cat on the ground.
The white cat stretched its muscles, then turned back and gave Xiaofu a paw.
"Meow!" Damn human being.
Juanjuan also got out of Lin's arms, and ran to a corner muttering with one person and one cat.
The white cat lazily licked its paws, "Meow~"
"Hurry up and find a way to get rid of those humans."
"Can't you let mother go?" Juanjuan asked, tilting her head.
The white cat bared its teeth, "No, we can't let humans follow."
"Okay." Juan Juan lowered his head in disappointment, then tugged at the corner of Mrs. Lin's clothes, "Mother, Juan Juan wants to go somewhere else to play with the kitten~"
Mrs. Lin shook her head in embarrassment, "Juanjuan, this is the palace, you are not allowed to run around."
"But Juan Juan won't run around. With the kitten taking him, Juan Juan won't get lost."
[Mother, just let Juan Juan go. Mother is the most beautiful mother in the world, the gentlest, kindest and loves Juan Juan the most! 】
Mrs. Lin was so soft-hearted, but the key point was that it didn't matter what she said.
Xiaofu saw her embarrassment from the side and said with a smile: "Madam, why don't you just let the young lady go? Nothing will happen if the maid follows you."
Now that he said that, Mrs. Lin patted Juanjuan's little head and warned her gently, "Then go and have fun, but you can't go to dangerous places, you know? And don't join in the fun. If you encounter any danger, let the palace maid Sister will take you away..."
She knew that Juan Juan must have something of his own to do. Although she knew that Juan Juan was very powerful, she was still worried, so she gave him a lot of advice.
"Yeah, I know mother, Juanjuan will be obedient~"
After saying that, the white cat jumped into the flowers, curled up behind its butt and followed slowly, and the backs of the cat and the cat gradually disappeared.
Lin's heart seemed to drift away.
"Madam, I will take you to see the apricot blossom forest in front of you."
