Childhood Sweethearts of a Family: The Delicate Girl

Chapter 74

After helping Lin Yuan take off her outer clothes, the female officer said with a smile, "Let the maid take the clothes to be ironed first, Miss, please rest here for a while, and the maidservant will come over to change the clothes.

It's just that I'm afraid that the size of the clothes I brought won't fit, and I'm afraid I will borrow the young lady's maid for use, so Miss Tired will wait here alone.There is a palace lady at the door, if there is anything the lady needs to do, just give her orders. "

Speak well, with reasons and evidence, it is really impossible not to say "yes".

With a smile on her face, Lin Yuan replied, "Please trouble me, aunt." Then she told Qingping, "You can go with aunt."

Since Lin Yuan had no objection, the female officer naturally gave the two court ladies a few words of service, then smiled and withdrew, taking Qingping away along with her.

Suddenly, only Lin Yuan was left in the room.

The charcoal fire was so hot that it wasn't cold even if she wasn't wearing outer clothes. Lin Yuan was so bored that she picked up a chair and sat down.

Today, many wives and ladies came to the palace to meet the queen, and the guards in the palace were only tighter than usual.The guards on duty all had serious faces, with one hand on the weapon slung around their waists, and they all patrolled the palace in silence to protect their safety.

The tranquility was instantly broken by the sudden appearance of a figure covered in black, with a black scarf covering his head and mask. After discovering the whereabouts of this strange figure, the guards immediately chased after him.

The chief guard on duty today, coincidentally, is the second master of the Fu family, meaning Xiao Wang's husband, Fu Jun.Fu Jun was assigned the position of Habayashi Zhonglang, and he was in charge of the safety of the palace. Now that a suspicious person appeared in the womb, he, the officer, would naturally rush to the front, and he must not be careless.

If something happened on such a new year's day, he couldn't keep his position, and if there were any bad consequences, even his life would not be enough.

Fu Jun's skill is not bad, he can sit in his position, his skill is impossible, the emperor would never make fun of his own safety.Therefore, even though the man in black was skilled, Fu Jun did not lose him at all. On the contrary, the other guards fell behind after a while and did not have time to catch up with Fu Jun or the man in black. .

As for the others, Fu Jun, who was focused on chasing the man in black, didn't care.He kept chasing after the man in black, and entered the inner palace without noticing it for a while.Fu Jun felt bad in his heart, so he increased his speed and chased forward. This time, the man in black was tightly suppressed.

Seeing that he was about to be overtaken by someone, the man in black seemed to hesitate, and broke into a room at random.Fu Jun glanced around and found that he had arrived at the side hall of Huaqing Palace.He knew that Her Highness the Queen was receiving the visits of the wives in Huaqing Palace, but why is there not a single palace attendant here?Although this doubt flashed in his heart, Fu Jun continued to chase after him. After all, there is nothing more important than chasing suspicious people.

He followed the man in black into the room, the window was not open, and the man should still be in the room.He entered the room cautiously, holding the handle of the knife on his waist, and only waited for anything unusual to draw out the knife.But when he stepped in, there was no one in the room.Fu Jun turned around abruptly, the door of the room was closed suddenly, and a black figure jumped out, and he didn't know where he hid earlier.

Just when Fu Jun was about to chase him out, there was a burst of cheering outside.A person who looked like a court lady waited for several court ladies and eunuchs to open the door of the room, and when he saw Fu Jun and no one else, he was stunned in surprise.Before Fu Jun could speak, the female officer asked, "Where's Miss Lin?"

Fu Jun didn't understand, "Miss Lin? I'm chasing a man in black!" After saying that, he overtook the crowd and chased outside.

The female officer was left blankly at the door of the room.

"This tea is indeed as the princess said, elegant and sweet, with endless aftertaste." Lin Yuan put down the tea cup, and said to the little princess Li Yan with a smile.

The fourth princess, Li Yan, was four years older than Lin Yuan, and she was only eighteen after the new year. Apart from the little princess who was only one year old, she was the only one among the princesses who was not yet married.

Princesses are no more than ordinary people's daughters, and the age of marriage is considered to be a bit older.It is not uncommon for the emperor to stay until he is married because of his reluctance. After all, no matter what, he can always marry a good husband and son-in-law. Regardless of his status, he will never suffer.

Li Yan heard that Lin Yuan also said yes, so she smiled and said, "Since you like it, why not take some home and drink it slowly, I still have a lot around me, and I have a share every year." Then she ordered the maid Packed a pack and put it in a white porcelain jar.

"Then thank you princess for your kindness." Li Yan was so polite, but Lin Yuan was disrespectful, so she accepted it.

Leaving aside Li Yan's status as a princess, she can indeed be regarded as Lin Yuan's cousin.

It's just that Concubine Hui is just a concubine of the emperor, and the British government is not the emperor's natal family, so this relationship is naturally unattainable.It was also because of this that Lin Yuan would not treat Li Yan as her cousin. After all, the difference in status was huge, and it was definitely not a good thing to get close.

On the contrary, Li Yan, since Lin Yuan entered the palace for the first time at the age of seven, when she saw Lin Yuan, she liked her quite a lot.Lin Yuan did not enter the palace many times, but every time Li Yan found out, she would invite Lin Yuan to her palace to sit and talk.

She is a person who has been in the palace all the time, and has no way to go outside, so she is very curious about many things outside.Every time she managed to see Lin Yuan, Li Yan would always pull her to ask questions.

At this moment, the two drank tea for a short while, and Li Yan was no exception and began to question Lin Yuan.

"I heard about the An family before, and about your engagement with the young master of Fenyonghou's mansion." Li Yan said slowly, "I also heard that His Royal Highness the Queen intends to let His Highness the Prince accept the eldest son of the An family. Miss is a side concubine, I didn't expect Miss An to be like this, and... I listen, there are so many things going on outside."

There was no one else in the hall, but when Li Yan said this, she still lowered her voice a little, no matter how calm her tone was, with a smile on her face, she couldn't conceal the meaning of her words.

Lin Yuan easily grasped the key point in Li Yan's words. Her Royal Highness the Empress deliberately asked His Highness the Crown Prince to accept An Suwei as a side concubine, but at this time, she was indirectly disturbing her.In this way, adding that her mother is the younger sister of Concubine Hui, it is completely reasonable for Her Highness the Queen to find her particularly displeasing to the eye.

Not only that, through these words, Lin Yuan also understood why Li Yan suddenly asked the maid to invite her to sit in the palace for a while, and when she invited her, she also brought clean clothes.Most of them have something to do with this matter, but definitely not just this matter.

The fact that the princess invited her over probably had something to do with Concubine Hui, which meant that the struggle between Her Highness the Queen and Concubine Hui had been brought to light to some extent.If it was in the past, if such a thing happened, would my aunt make a move like today?

Lin Yuan couldn't get an answer for things that didn't happen, but she had her own way to deal with them.Now my aunt has her own budget, so she should cooperate.

Maybe she didn't understand these things when she was young, but now Lin Yuan knows it very well.My aunt's position, if one is not good, what kind of consequences will it have, and how will their family be affected...

From the very beginning, their family was destined to be on the side of the aunt, that is, the second prince's side.

Looking at all the things His Majesty has done now, Lin Yuan even faintly felt that perhaps from the very beginning, His Majesty's favorite heir was not any of the princes under His Majesty's knees.However, when everything has not yet settled, unexpected variables may still occur.

"The princess has heard about these things? I didn't expect it to spread to the palace." Lin Yuan answered, as if she didn't have any thoughts about Li Yan's previous words.

Li Yan smiled, "I'm envious of you. I can marry someone as outstanding as the young master of the Qi family. Now I don't even know who I want to marry."

"Although the princess doesn't know yet, but the emperor loves the princess so much, he will definitely choose a good one for the princess. The princess doesn't have to worry about it." Lin Yuan also smiled, and comforted Li Yan, and only mentioned that the emperor didn't care about her. Speaking of Her Majesty the Queen, this is also very interesting.

"But how can it compare to the childhood sweetheart relationship between you and the young master of the Qi family? How nice it is to grow up together!"

Li Yan was really envious, and what she said was even more sincere. She also found that it was meaningless to continue this topic, so she changed her mind and said, "Now that I said it, I remembered that the second and sixth brothers came from the border. When you come back, bring me a little deer as a gift, that little deer looks really pretty, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Okay!" Lin Yuan replied with a smile.

Li Yan stood up and complained, "The little deer was originally raised with a beautiful body, but it was fat and strong when it was in my hands. The second and sixth brothers saw it and made fun of me. I don't know how long." .”

Lin Yuan stood up following Li Yan, and said with a smile, "That's because the princess really loves it, otherwise how could it be kept so well?"

Li Yan suddenly smiled and bent her eyebrows. At this moment, a court lady hurried in and whispered a few words in Li Yan's ear. Li Yan then turned to Lin Yuan and said, "Come on, I can't see you as a deer today." , can only change another day."
