Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 320 Bring the letter to
"Ma'am, the ninth princess asks to see you."

"Princess Nine?" After hearing the announcement from the servant girl, Jiang Yanran had doubts in her heart. She had never had any friendship with Princess Nine, so why did she come to her?However, due to his status, he didn't dare to be negligent. After tidying up a bit, he went to the hall.

"The minister's wife sees the nine princesses."

The Ninth Princess sat on the chair, impatiently waiting for Jiang Yanran to arrive, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly walked forward and blessed her body: "I have seen Mrs. Xiao."

"I don't know why the Ninth Princess came here?"

The Ninth Princess hesitated to speak, and glanced at the servants in the room. Jiang Yanran understood, waved her hand, and screened away all the servants. Seeing that there was no one in the room, the Ninth Princess took out Zhao Mintuo from her arms. The envelope for her, handed to her.

"This is?" Jiang Yanran looked at the envelope in her hand, her brows were slightly frowned, and her eyes were full of doubts.

"Mrs. Xiao, Princess Ling asked me to bring this to you." The ninth princess obviously didn't want to stay any longer. It was getting late now, and she had to rush back to the palace before the city gate closed.

"Princess Ling?" Hearing these words, Jiang Yanran was even more confused, she couldn't guess what was in the letter.

Princess Jiu nodded: "That's right, Princess Ling asked me to give it to you, and I must hand it over to you before dark today. As for what is in my heart, I don't know very well. After I leave, Mrs. Xiao will be watching."

When the two of them said these words, they had been standing up all the time. After realizing this, Mrs. Xiao chuckled lightly: "Look at me, sit down and talk quickly. What are you doing standing up? Sit down and have a drink." Tea."

The Ninth Princess shook her head slightly, and refused: "Thank you Mrs. Xiao for your kindness, it is inconvenient for me to stay here."

Mrs. Xiao forced her to stay without saying a word, and after personally sending the Ninth Princess out of the mansion, she returned to her yard, shunned all the servants, sat alone at the table, and opened the letter.

After carefully reading the contents of the letter, Mrs. Xiao was startled. After thinking for a while, she ordered her servants to let Xiao Yichen come to her room when she came back.

"Mother, are you looking for me?"

As night fell, Xiao Yichen came back, and after hearing what the servant said, he came to Jiang Yanran's place non-stop.

When Xiao Yichen entered the room, he saw Jiang Yanran sitting at the table with her head bowed, apparently in deep thought.

After hearing her son's voice, Jiang Yanran came back to her senses, and pointed to the opposite side of her: "Come and sit, mother has something to discuss with you."

Xiao Yichen took advantage of the situation and sat down: "What's the matter? Mother, why do you have to rush to talk about it now? Don't go to bed early, and you have to go to the palace early tomorrow morning to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday!"

"That's the matter." Jiang Yanran looked a little dignified, and handed the letter in her hand to Xiao Yichen, "Look at it yourself."

Xiao Yichen's eyes were suspicious, and in the process of reading the letter, he couldn't help frowning more and more deeply.

After reading it, Xiao Yichen put the envelope on the table with a solemn expression: "I expected that Princess Ling's situation after entering the palace would not be good, but I never expected that someone would be vicious here and want her life."

"Yi Chen, in your opinion, is what Princess Ling said reliable? Should we help her?"

"Of course I want to help." Xiao Yichen said resolutely, "Prince Ling entrusted me to take care of her a lot before she left. Now that Concubine Ling has said this, she must have been at a loss what to do. We absolutely cannot refuse."

After listening to Xiao Yichen's words, Jiang Yanran nodded lightly: "That's right, my son thinks the same as my mother."

"After your father comes back, mother will talk to him carefully. Presumably your father will not refuse Ling Wangfei's request for help. It's okay, it's getting late, go back and rest, and play by ear tomorrow."

Jiang Yanran lowered her eyes, and her tone revealed a hint of worry: "If the things Princess Ling is worried about don't happen tomorrow, that's all. If it happens, Mother will definitely rescue her from the palace."

After Xiao Yichen left, Jiang Yanran repeatedly looked at the letter written by Zhao Min, with a hint of love in her eyes.

For some reason, she fell in love with Princess Ling, whom she had only met once, and when she received this letter of pleading for help, she made a decision in her heart almost without hesitation, and decided to take this troubled water to help her. Bundle.

"Princess, it's getting late, it's time to go to the Longevity Palace to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday."

Nanny Gu looked at Zhao Min who was still sitting at the table drinking tea calmly, and reminded her.

Zhao Min's expression was dignified. Last night, she had already confessed her plan to Nanny Gu.

"Today is such a good opportunity, Yinggui will definitely not let it go, it will definitely trip me up, after all, there is a pusher behind her, even she is planning, who is the chess piece, who is the chess player, after a while See you later."

After all, a glimmer of hope flashed in Zhao Min's heart, but this feeling was not very good. This kind of situation of placing the bet on others and not being able to make decisions by himself was a last resort.

"Princess, are you ready?"

The industrious man who jumped in from the outside was dressed in a pink palace suit and decorated with a velvet flower headdress on his head, which made people feel very innocent and lively.

Knowing nothing, she just thought that today she was just going out to attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, so she could relax, so she looked very looking forward to it.

"It's packed, let's go."

Nanny Gu wanted to tell Zhao Min a few more words carefully, but because Qin Lan came in, she had to hold back her words.

Nanny Gu helped Zhao Min get up from the stool, looking at her with worried eyes, Zhao Min noticed it, and patted Nanny Gu's hand lightly, signaling her to relax.

As the saying goes, the road to Enemies is narrow, Zhao Min and his party just ran into Yinggui when they arrived at the gate of Longevity Palace.

Lady Ying still had a friendly look, as if she didn't care about what happened a few days ago: "Concubine Ling is here too, it's such a coincidence, why don't we go in together."

Since she pretended to be stupid and didn't mention that matter, Zhao Min wouldn't be so stupid as to bring it up, smiling and nodding: "Okay."

Supported by Wangxi, Yinggui walked carefully towards the Longevity Palace, fearing that something might go wrong, her eyes drooped to hide her true inner emotions.

At the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, unless a few important figures gave generous gifts to the Empress Dowager on the spot, the congratulatory gifts of other people were all recorded by the steward of the Longevity Palace.

Zhao Min came to the front, and after Mammy Gu handed over the gift box she was holding to the nanny in charge, she and Yinggui went to the place where the birthday banquet was held.
