The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 215

Concubine Lan brought her daughter-in-law, Concubine Yongqin, and granddaughter Princess Pingyang to the eldest princess' mansion in a luan car.

Fuxi is already waiting at the door with his sons and daughters.

Seeing Concubine Lan being helped out of the car by the maid, Fu Xi couldn't wait to greet her with a smile, and called out kindly: "Mother Concubine."

After Fuxi and Emperor Ming lost their mother since childhood, they were raised under this gentle and virtuous Concubine Lan.The grace of nurturing is greater than heaven, and Fuxi has always respected and cherished Concubine Lan.

Concubine Lan is over [-] years old. Although she is well maintained, she can't help the passage of time. She was once a beautiful beauty in the palace, but now she is showing old age.

When the mother and daughter met, both of them couldn't help but shed tears.

Fu Xi looked at Concubine Lan's gray temples, sighed and said, "I haven't seen you for more than ten years, my concubine is getting old."

Concubine Lan caressed her adoptive daughter's hand, and said with a smile: "Now that you have wrinkles at the corners of your eyes, how can Concubine Mother not grow old?"

After the mother and daughter exchanged pleasantries, Concubine Lan pulled her daughter-in-law and granddaughter over, and smiled at Fu Xi, "You and Qing He have known each other before, but you don't recognize my little granddaughter, right?"

Princess Pingyang greeted Fuxi generously, "My niece Pingyang has seen the emperor's aunt."

Seeing this handsome girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, Fu Xi was surprised and said, "Ah! Is this Pingyang? It's grown so big, I really can't recognize it."

Princess Pingyang was not afraid of birth, she smiled sweetly, showing two dimples on her cheeks, and said to Fuxi: "Grandmother and mother said, I met the emperor's aunt when I was three years old, and now I can At the age of sixteen, the imperial aunt will naturally not be able to recognize her."

Fu Xi looked at this handsome niece in front of him, nodded his head and said, "Among the girls from the Zhao family, my Pingyang niece is really the most handsome."

Ping Yang was not shy after hearing this, she replied straightforwardly: "Thank you for your compliment."

Prince Yong, who was standing aside, cast a sharp glance at his daughter, and said to Fuxi, "This child is spoiled by the prince at home, and his etiquette is neglected. Princess, please don't be offended."

Fu Xi and Princess Yong knew each other since they were young, and she replied with a smile: "Seventh brother is such a precious daughter, so naturally he wants to spoil her. Besides, it's not a bad thing for my daughter's family to be pampered."

After Fuxi finished speaking, without waiting for Princess Yong to speak, Pingyang smiled innocently and said to Fuxi: "The emperor's aunt is really wise."

Seeing that her daughter was getting more and more presumptuous, Princess Yong said angrily to her daughter, "Don't be so talkative with your elders."

Forced by her mother's coercion, Princess Pingyang shrugged her small shoulders and stuck out her tongue mischievously.

Concubine Lan saw her daughter-in-law beating her granddaughter, she pulled her towards her granddaughter distressedly, and replied: "Fuxi is right, she was raised by the late emperor. You see, even now, no one Dare to bully her. If this girl's family is not pampered, she will marry into her in-law's family in the future and be popular."

Concubine Lan is an extremely gentle and kind person. After hearing her remarks, Fu Xi couldn't help laughing and jokingly said: "Concubine Mu, you have changed a lot now."

Concubine Yongqin is the niece of Concubine Lan's natal family, so the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is naturally extremely harmonious.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was protecting her daughter again, she said helplessly to Fu Xi: "My daughter is spoiled by the prince and spoiled by her mother-in-law. I really worry about what kind of family can tolerate her in the future."

"There is no one who can accommodate me, so I just don't want to marry." With the support of his grandmother, Ping Yang boldly interjected.

Seeing that her daughter was so unruly, Princess Yong didn't reprimand her this time, but flew towards her quietly with a knife.

Ping Yang hurriedly hid behind his grandmother, and while his mother was not paying attention, he made a face at her.

After everyone greeted each other, Fuxi enthusiastically pointed out his children to Concubine Lan and the others one by one.

When Concubine Lan saw Li Lingjingshu and the others, her eyes couldn't help getting moist again.

She sighed in her mouth: "Oh, it's true that time is not forgiving. You have become a mother-in-law in a short while, and the daughter-in-law here is really beautiful. Jin Yan is also so old." Concubine Lan glanced at Fu Xi and muttered: "Follow me You really looked like you when you were young, you were handsome."

After complimenting the two female relatives, Concubine Lan looked at Li Ling, who was tall and burly, "Brother Ling was only in his teens when I saw him last time, but he is an adult now, so he hasn't changed much. He's still as cold as he was when he was a child."

Why is it that the previous ones are all praises, but there is no change when it comes to him?
After listening to Concubine Lan's words, Li Ling's already cold face became even colder.

Concubine Lan asked Fuxi after seeing the three juniors, "Where's your youngest son? Why haven't you seen Brother Xiang?"

Fuxi replied: "Brother Xiang is working in the palace now, and there are people paying tribute in the palace now, so he has to come later."

Concubine Lan sighed again: "Oh my god, even your youngest son can work now, how can I not be old?"

Just as he was talking, a person in the distance ran towards this side with a kick and a ride.

The third girl said pleasantly, "It's the third brother who came over."

After a while, Li Xiang rushed to the front, he got off his horse, raised his eyes and glanced at the crowd, then bowed respectfully to Concubine Lan first, "Grandson has seen the emperor's grandmother."

When Concubine Lan saw the personable and polite Li Xiang, the smile on her face reached her eyes.

She quickly helped Li Xiang up, couldn't help but looked up and down, and couldn't stop praising: "This brother Xiang is so handsome, he is really a young man."

Li Xiang just came from the palace, before he had time to change Habayashiro's official uniform, he was wearing the red and vermilion flying fish-patterned palace dress, which made his face look like a crown of jade, and his figure seemed relaxed and upright.

She fully deserves Concubine Lan's praise.

With a warm smile on Li Xiangjun's face, he said modestly to Concubine Lan: "The emperor's grandmother is absurd."

Concubine Lan really liked Li Xiang more and more, she couldn't help saying: "This child is handsome and has a gentle temperament, which is really rare."

As she said that, she looked at Fu Xi who was on the side, and asked, "I remember Brother Xiang is half a year older than Ping Yang, isn't it?"

Fu Xi replied: "Exactly, the two of them are half a year apart in age."

Concubine Lan waved to her granddaughter: "Pingyang, come and meet your cousin Li."

Pingyang was no longer as mischievous as before, she stepped forward slowly, and gave a little blessing to Li Xiang: "Pingyang met my cousin."

Li Xiang returned the salute to Pingyang: "I have seen my cousin."

In the vast night sky, there are dots of snow foam floating in the stars.For Pingyang, who was born and raised in the south, the winter in Beijing is really cold.But right now, seeing the warm smile on that handsome young man's face, she just felt a warm feeling go straight to the bottom of her heart.

Pingyang stood in the night, although his sleeves were full of wind and snow, he didn't feel cold anymore.
