No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 65 Shen Lingxiang Version 2.0 (Second Update)

"My lord."

Not long after Luo Junyao left, Duoying silently appeared a few steps behind Xie Yan.

Xie Yan looked back and saw that he didn't speak, but Duo Ying had already lowered his head and said, "This subordinate knows his mistake."

After a moment of silent silence, Xie Yan waved his hand lightly and said, "That's all."

Die Ying took two steps forward and said in a low voice: "There is news from Prince Mu's residence that the princess is ill."

Xie Yan's expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

It took him a long time to chuckle, and said calmly: "Understood, let someone send some things over tomorrow."

Duoying was stunned for a moment, seemingly surprised.

"If you ask about the prince..."

Xie Yan said: "This king will go out of the city tomorrow to handle errands."

Xie Yan turned around and was about to go downstairs. Seeing that Die Ying was still standing there, he asked, "What else?"

Die Ying said: "Tomorrow will be the court meeting, Prime Minister Ruan and Grand Tutor Su will both send people to ask, I wonder if the prince can go to court tomorrow?"

Xie Yan said: "It's really time to go after you've been back for a few days."

"Yes, this subordinate understands." Duoying said.

Fortunately, the injury on the prince's neck has been treated, otherwise tomorrow morning... it will be embarrassing.

After the end of the court meeting the next day, civil and military officials came out of the main hall or went to their respective squad rooms to be on duty, or went out of the palace to return to their official offices and mansions.

"My lord."

Xie Yan walked out of the palace with the overlapping shadows, and Luo Yun and Luo Jinyan, father and son, happened to be walking beside him.

Xie Yan nodded slightly towards Luo Yun, "General, the Wuwei army has to work hard to change defenses."

Luo Yun and Xie Yan are the highest-ranking military generals in Dasheng. Normally, they only take care of their respective military affairs at the border, but when they return to the court, they will inevitably have to share some important affairs.

Luo Yundao: "It's not hard work to talk about the job. It's hard work for the prince to work on state affairs before he recovers from his injury."

Luo Jinyan didn't speak to his father, but his eyes flicked past Xie Yan's wound, and his pupils flickered slightly and then fell down quickly.

His father may not have noticed last night, but Luo Jinyan, who is always careful, did notice.

Last night, although Xie Yan deliberately raised his collar to cover it up, Luo Jinyan could still tell that it was a tooth mark.

today...

If Xie Yan flirted with a woman yesterday that left marks on her neck, and even ran around with her teeth marks at night, Luo Jinyan didn't quite believe it.

So……

Xie Yan naturally also noticed Luo Jinyan's scrutinizing gaze, but he didn't express anything, just pretending that nothing happened.

It's just a little girl who hasn't grown up yet, she didn't have any sense at that time, so he didn't take it to heart.

The two chatted for a few words and then led their people out of the palace gate. This scene was not so unusual in the eyes of many people.

King Ning Xie Zhang looked at Xie Yanyuan's back, his gray brows could not help but wrinkle.

He was surrounded by several officials, and upon seeing this, someone said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness the Regent is really focused on state affairs, and this is still hurting, and it will not delay coming to the court to discuss state affairs."

Another person said: "The previous injury should be healed. There was a commotion in Nanshi last night, and His Royal Highness Chu met an assassin, which added some minor injuries. But, who is this assassin..." Anyway Except for a few dead people, no one was seen alive.

I don't know who is so tireless in wanting the regent's life.

King Ning's gray eyebrows moved, and he said, "Okay, the regent dares to talk about it? Let's go."

Only then did the discussion stop, and everyone said again and again that they dispersed separately.

King Ning turned his head and glanced at the middle-aged man who came out from behind. He was in his early fifties, and his appearance was refined and elegant. He was obviously a gentleman when he was young.

The other party was wearing a crimson-colored first-grade civil official robe, which was quite dignified as a Shangguan.

It was Ruan Ting, the Prime Minister of the current dynasty.

The two looked at each other, neither of them had the intention to speak in the past, they each turned their heads and left the palace.

Outsiders don't know that the second daughter of the Luo family stayed at the Prince Regent's Mansion for two nights, and she also lived in Xie Yan's Jingyuan.

If this news gets out, I'm afraid how many people's jaws will be shocked, and how many people will have trouble sleeping and eating.

Since it cannot be known to outsiders, Luo Junyao's departure from the Prince Regent's Palace was naturally silent.

As soon as she got home, she saw the Mid-Autumn Festival gift sent by Shen Hongxiu and others.

She ran away after chasing the thief that day and never came back. Although Xie Yan sent someone to explain and even sent back the purse that Xu Hui had stolen together, they were somewhat worried.

Naturally, it was inevitable to send someone over to inquire about the situation.

"Yeah, they all gave me presents, and I haven't returned them yet. Isn't it a bit late now?"

Because today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, various colored lights were hung up in various places in the Luo Mansion, and they were newly decorated, creating a festive atmosphere of family reunion.

Luo Junyao and Luo Mingxiang sat at the stone table in the garden of Nuanxinyuan, Luo Junyao asked.

Luo Mingxiang smiled and said: "Don't worry, mother has already returned the gift for you." After finishing speaking, he looked at Luo Junyao, "It seems that Yaoyao gets along well with the students from the Martial Arts Academy?"

In the past, no one gave Luo Junyao a gift.

Luo Junyao smiled proudly: "Of course, I'm so cute, everyone likes me."

Luo Mingxiang couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, "Yes, Yaoyao is so cute, everyone likes you."

"Girl, Mrs. Shen is here." Lan Zhen came in and reported.

Luo Junyao paused his hands playing with the newly received gift, "Auntie is here?"

Luo Junyao didn't really want to see this person.

The Luo family occupies too much weight in the memory of the original owner, and Luo Junyao knows that the silly girl really respects the Luo family as her own mother.

Because Mrs. Luo is always unsmiling when facing the original owner, the Luo family who has a gentle personality and takes good care of the original owner has become her closest and trusted person.

As long as Luo Junyao thinks of what the Luo family did to the original owner, he will feel more uncomfortable than seeing that scumbag Xie Chengyou.

Xie Chengyou's methods can't be seen, so it can be said that the original owner is not very smart, but Luo's subtle and silent method of moisturizing things since childhood, few people can escape against a child.

Lan Zhen nodded and said, "And Cousin."

Luo Jun shook his head and thought for a while, "What are they looking for me for?" Shen Lingxiang doesn't like to approach her these days.

Luo Mingxiang smiled and said, "Tonight there will be a banquet in the palace."

Every New Year's Eve and Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Qianqiu, and the Emperor Wanshou will hold palace banquets.Naturally, not everyone can participate in the palace banquet.

At least from the nobles of the third rank and above and their direct descendants, or like Luo Junyao, who have their own titles and titles.

Of course, the latter overlaps with the former most of the time.For example, Luo Junyao has the title of county lord, and her father is Dingguo General and Duke Dingguo.

Luo Mingxiang is the eldest daughter of the Luo family, so he can naturally enter the palace with his parents.

But Shen Lingxiang was only a cousin of the Luo family, and Mrs. Luo could still bring her with her in previous years.But now Mrs. Luo is not in Shangyong, and the mother and daughter of the Luo family and the Su family are not on good terms, so naturally they can only focus on Luo Junyao.

"Ah..." Luo Junyao lay down on the stone table a little bored, "Shouldn't the whole family be reunited during the Mid-Autumn Festival? Why do you have to go to the palace for a banquet?"

Luo Mingxiang patted her lightly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Luo Jun stuck out his tongue, raised his head and said to Lan Zhen, "Auntie, please come in."

"Yes, girl."

Luo Mingxiang looked at Luo Junyao, "Are you planning to take Lingxiang with you?"

Luo Jun shook his eyes and smiled, "Even if I don't take her there, she will find a way by herself."

Luo Mingxiang raised his eyebrows, and soon understood.

Indeed, Shen Lingxiang's reputation as the number one talented woman in the imperial city is not entirely useless.It's not difficult to find someone to take her into the palace, but it's not as legitimate as Luo Junyao's identity.

"Isn't grandma coming back in two days?" Luo Jun said, "If I don't take her there, grandma will teach me again later."

Thinking of Mrs. Luo, Luo Mingxiang couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.

In fact, she has never quite understood why Mrs. Luo blindly favors Shen Lingxiang's mother and daughter. After all, Yaoyao is her own granddaughter, isn't she?
Even if she didn't like Yao Yao because of her first wife, she should at least look at it for the sake of the only son, General Luo.

Shaking her head, Luo Mingxiang put aside the question that had been bothering her all this time.

"Shake."

Luo Shi is a beautiful woman, her appearance is not very outstanding, much inferior to Su Shi.

Compared with her biological daughter Shen Lingxiang, she was much worse. If it weren't for the similarities between their eyebrows, it would be almost impossible to tell that they were the biological mother and daughter.

Years of being pampered and pampered has given her a bit of aura of honor and dignity. It can be seen that the Luo family has indeed treated her well these years.

It's just that maybe it's because she was widowed and widowed in her early years. There is always a little sadness and weakness between her brows, which makes people feel that speaking loudly to her is bullying her.

Apart from the relationship with the original owner, this is also one of the reasons why Luo Junyao didn't like to see her.

This is version 2.0 of Shen Lingxiang.

Compared with her weakness and harmlessness, Shen Lingxiang seemed a little more aggressive.

Luo Junyao smiled and said, "Aunt, cousin, why are you here?"

Luo said softly: "I haven't seen Yaoyao for a few days, I miss it very much. I personally made Yaoyao's favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cake, it's still hot, come and try it?"

The girl next to Luo Shi held a food box and opened it, and there was indeed a plate of delicate sweet-scented osmanthus cakes inside.

Luo Junyao glanced at it and said with a smile: "Thank you aunt, the master chef in our family is very good at craftsmanship, so don't work hard for aunt in the future, it's not good to be too tired."

Luo's walking steps faltered, and the expression on his face became more and more sad, "Yaoyao, is this estranged from your aunt? I heard that you have also alienated a lot from Xiang'er these days. Did Xiang'er bully you? Are you talking to me?" My aunt said, my aunt will help you teach her a lesson."

Shen Lingxiang stood beside him, showing a bit of aggrieved look at the right time.

It's a pity that this method is not easy for Luo Junyao. Luo Jun shook his head and said: "Auntie misunderstood, I have been studying with my mother to help my eldest sister dowry, and I have to go to school. I am very busy."

"That's it." Luo said with a sweet smile: "That's good. You sisters have grown up together all these years. It would be a pity if you become estranged because of a small matter. Your grandmother will be sad if she finds out."

"Auntie is right." Luo Junyao said obediently.

Shen Lingxiang, who was supporting Luo Shi, also smiled and said: "Mother, I just said that Yaoyao and I are doing well, how can we get estranged so easily? Don't worry. Yaoyao, let's take a carriage to enter the palace tonight. it is good?"

Luo Junyao looked at Shen Lingxiang with a smile and said nothing, and Shen Lingxiang felt a little uncomfortable being watched by her.Just about to say something to make up for it, Luo Jun shook his head with a smile and said: "Okay."

Hearing what she said, Shen Lingxiang was relieved.

Luo Shi and Shen Lingxiang sat down and talked to Luo Junyao for a while, and they didn't care that Luo Mingxiang was sitting beside them.

What they said was all about Luo Junyao, and it was no different from before Luo Yun came back.

Seeing her caring and caring appearance, Luo Junyao was a little confused for a moment whether her acting skills were natural or she really didn't know about Shen Lingxiang and Xie Chengyou.
