Bringing the courtyard through [delicate] lady killed like crazy

Chapter 227 Looking at each other

……

Holding a palm-sized mirror of butterflies playing with peach blossoms from the Forbidden City.

The concubine raised her hand and touched her face, and the beauty in the mirror also raised her hand and touched her face.

She put down her hands, and the beauty in the mirror also put down her hands.

She looked at herself in the mirror, and when she heard her daughter-in-law's words, her cheeks flushed. She said lightly, "You kid, you always know how to make your mother happy!"

"Mother, your smile really fulfills the meaning of the mirror." Li Jiaojiao pointed behind the mirror.

The Concubine Chen looked at her in surprise, then slowly turned the mirror. On the back of the small mirror, pink and white met, with gold edges, and painted with flowing water and butterflies playing with pink peaches, it was extremely lively.

She gently stroked the patterns on it with her hand, and the sleeves slid down, revealing her smooth wrists without any decoration.

Li Jiaojiao's words "The face of the woman and the peach blossoms complement each other red" were stuck in her throat.

She didn't want to guess the reason, but it seemed to be there.

Emperor Qing would not be short of money for the expenses of Blue Moon Pavilion. Just by looking at the clothes and jewelry that Concubine Chen gave her, one can tell how favored she is.

But she only realized now that the clothes worn by Concubine Chen were not any of the five treasures given to her, and even the jewelry on her body was very few.

"Your Majesty, it's almost time." The palace maid reported from outside.

"Well, Jing'er, Jiaojiao, you go ahead." Chen Fei held a small mirror in her hand and waved at the two of them.

Li Jiaojiao smiled and stood up with Lu Liang, "Mother, I have a full-length mirror with me, but I am in a hurry to enter the palace this time and it is not convenient to bring it with me. I will bring it to you later."

"Very good, but... you gave it all to mother, what do you use it for?"

"I have several sons and ministers. Don't worry, mother. I will withdraw now. Take care, mother."

"Go ahead, don't worry about your mother. Jing'er, take good care of Jiaojiao."

"Don't worry, mother."

Until she walked out of the Blue Moon Pavilion, Li Jiaojiao was still thinking about the beautiful woman who was imprisoned inside.

She used to be a free and easy-going girl, but now she is locked up in there, she must feel very uncomfortable.

……

Outside Xuanwu Gate.

The people attending the banquet lined up in a long row.

The children of all the court officials and aristocratic families in the capital followed their elders into the palace to attend the banquet.

There are rumors that the Emperor will take the opportunity to meet several princes at tonight's banquet.

There are a total of four princes who have reached adulthood. The principal wife and two concubines make a total of twelve candidates. The noble ladies of each family are trying their best to take advantage of this opportunity to stand out.

There were also close friends who gathered in groups of three or five and discussed in low voices the latest trends in Beijing.

"Sister, is that a hibiscus hairpin on your head made of colorless jadeite from Lingyuxuan? It's really beautiful." A pretty girl with bright eyes stared at the hairpin on the head of a girl next to her and sighed. In a trance, she even swallowed her saliva.

The woman who was being praised stretched out her hand and smoothed the hairpin on her head. She had someone stake out Lingyuxuan and picked it out as soon as a new one came on the market. Naturally, it was something special and it was only shown on occasions like this.

This colorless jade is a unique variety of Lingyuxuan. The jade is crystal clear and looks transparent, but it has an amazing brilliance.

She fell in love with it the first time she saw it, and now she likes it more and more.

"Lingyuxuan's craftsmanship is really good. Don't you also like the jewelry there? Let's go and have a look together some other day."

"I want to go too, but the custom-made jewelry at Lingyuxuan... is too expensive, and my mother doesn't allow me to go often." The cute little girl who spoke first pouted and stared enviously at Lin Weilan... the colorless jadeite hibiscus hairpin on her head.

My father is also a minister. What kind of life is Sister Lin leading? What kind of life is she leading? Woo woo woo...

It's all Meng Siyuan's fault! Prodigal son! Woo woo woo...

"Okay, look at what you have accomplished. It's just a hairpin." As a child of the royal family, Qi Yuyi could enter the palace directly without queuing.

But thinking that there were two more people there, it would be boring for her to go in alone, so she came over to take a look. As soon as she arrived, she saw Meng Siyue looking like a loser.

"Greetings, Princess Yuyi." Meng Siyue bowed with a smile, then turned around and exclaimed at Qi Yuyi's complete headgear, "Wow! Yuyi, your headgear is so, so beautiful, isn't it?"

Qi Yuyi: ...It's so shameful and embarrassing. How could she have such a study partner?

"Yuyi, why didn't you bring that white jade headdress with gemstone butterflies and flowers?" Lin Weilan knelt down and bowed, then asked.

Qi Yuyi wanted to roll her eyes: ...Can you please stop mentioning it?

"Okay, follow me in first."

Meng Siyue: "Okay, thank you Princess Yuyi, Sister Lin, let's go! I said Yuyi wouldn't forget us."

Qi Yuyi greeted their mother and took them to the carriage.

Suddenly, a carriage came across.

The carriage was more than twice as large as an ordinary carriage. It was pulled by three horses and looked like a small house when in motion.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Whose carriage is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

"Look at the emblem, it's Lu, the Lu family? Is it a new family? How come I've never heard of it?"

"Hey, this carriage, why do I seem to have seen it before?..."

Qi Yuyi paused as she was about to get into the carriage. Although she had only seen this carriage and the driver once, she was deeply impressed.

Now think about it, how could ordinary people have those four maids holding swords and standing against the wind?

But shouldn’t she have entered the palace a long time ago?

A young eunuch came over to answer her question, "I am here to see Princess Yuyi. Please forgive me, Princess. Please make way. Your Majesty has summoned you."

"Please do as you wish, eunuch." Qi Yuyi nodded slightly, and the servants immediately drove the carriage aside to make way.

As long as it was this carriage, no matter who was in it, even if the eunuch didn't come to deliver the message, she would give way, it was no big deal.

However, someone behind her muttered, "Who is this? He's so arrogant. He even dares to squeeze Princess Yuyi's carriage. Isn't this a blatant provocation?"

"That's right. He didn't even show his face. I'm afraid he's not in a position to be seen by others, right?"

……

Meng Siyue secretly watched Qi Yuyi. They grew up together, and she knew that this princess was not someone who was easy to talk to.

The only tolerance may be given to her and Sister Lin.

Now, why are you so easy to talk to?

That frame was obviously not a royal frame, so it definitely couldn't pass her.

Meng Siyue thought secretly in her heart, looked at Lin Weilan beside her, and pulled Qi Yuyi's sleeve, "Princess, it's our turn, take me away quickly, I need to smell the air here for a while longer, and it will be marinated."

Lin Weilan smiled and covered her face with a smile, then turned around to look at Madam Meng. As expected, she saw Madam Meng jumping up and down, but was held back by her own mother...

Mother Meng: ...This little bastard, his mother is still here! What nonsense are you talking about?

Lin’s mother: …It’s because of you who spoiled me.

Meng Siyue realized it belatedly and turned around, seeing Aunt Lin pulling her mother and waving at them impatiently.

That means: Get out of here!

It's over...

When you get home, you have to follow the rules.

He looked back hesitantly and found that there was no one around him. Yuyi and Weilan had already got on the carriage.

Don't wait for her...

"Wait for me……"

……

The sound of wheel tracks was heard and the bead curtain swayed.

Lin Weiyue glanced through the gap at Qingyang County Lord Zhou Ruofu behind her.

His eyes moved slightly.
