The female supporting role never believes in fate

"Are we really going to the Ninghui Hall next to the imperial dining room?"

Along the way, Cheng Yuguan was very unfamiliar with everything around him. The side palace was full of bluestone roads, towering palaces and city walls. Cheng Yuguan followed Li Mian, feeling like he was going in circles, not knowing where he was going .

Li Mian strode forward without looking back, and only replied, "The prince said to go to the Ninghui Palace, so he naturally went there. However, when you arrive at the Ninghui Palace, you can go to the imperial dining room opposite to learn scriptures. I still have business to do." , I will stay with you less."

Hearing what Li Mian said, Cheng Yu nodded his head, even though no one could see it.

Li Mian was several steps ahead of her. Li Mian was tall and had long legs. He took three steps against Cheng Yuguan with one step.Moreover, running is forbidden in the palace, so she can only walk quickly to keep up with the figure in front of her.

"It's almost there, right ahead."

Li Mian said.

Cheng Yuguan looked up, and saw that the corridor finally came to an end, and there was a corner in front of it, which should lead to Ninghui Hall after the corner.

Cheng Yuguan secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Walking without a purpose, still in the palace, makes people feel uncertain. Now that the time is about to arrive, Cheng Yu is concerned about it and finally calms down.

"Passing through this door, have you arrived at the Qian Dynasty? I always feel that I have walked so far just now, and I should have already left the palace."

Cheng Yuguan thought after Li Mian.

Hearing what Cheng Yuguan said, Li Mian looked back at Cheng Yuguan in surprise, "You also know that the imperial palace is separated from the previous dynasty, that's right."

Cheng Yuguan didn't care whether Li Mian was mocking her or not, and raised his head triumphantly, "That's right, what don't you know?"

Seeing that Cheng Yuguan was proud of his compliment, Li Mian also raised the corners of his mouth, "You are really easy to get carried away. It's no big deal to know this. Since you know that you have passed the gate here, you will be the front court, and you will be cautious when you arrive at Ninghui Hall. Some, otherwise it's not fun to be seen by people who are disrespectful."

"understood!"

Cheng Yuguan simply agreed.

Li Mian turned around, only thinking it was funny.

He doesn't have any sisters, and he used to think that other sisters were very noisy and self-willed, but he didn't expect Cheng Yuguan to be quite well-behaved.He thought, with such a younger sister, it's no wonder that she once said that the patriarch's cousins ​​were all kind to her.If he had a well-behaved sister, he would treat her well.

Seeing the side door, the two walked for a while before finally reaching the threshold of the side door.

Cheng Yuguan took two steps, trying to follow Li Mian, but Li Mian, who had been striding ahead, suddenly stopped, and suddenly turned around and pulled Cheng Yuguan against the corner of the round arched side door.

Cheng Yuguan subconsciously breathed lightly, only looked at Li Mian, and said nothing.

Li Mian nodded in satisfaction, put his finger on his lips, and signaled with a silent "shh".

Cheng Yu nodded, indicating that he understood.

Immediately, in the deep corridor, at the corner of the side door, there were no human voices, only the breathing and heartbeat of two people.

"Don't be too anxious. Cheng Yuguan is acting recklessly in the Hou's mansion and playing tricks on your family. Now that I enter the palace, I will definitely avenge you."

A man's voice came faintly, and Cheng Yuguan's eyes widened in shock, almost thinking that he had heard it wrong.

She just arrived here, and she didn't know when she made enemies in the palace.

"No, Cheng Yuguan is very powerful. When she was at home, she had to be unforgiving. Now that she is in the palace, she has the empress as her backer. I don't know how she will act. You and the fourth prince are already in love with each other. Don’t get along, don’t offend the fourth prince because of me, and start another conflict. Concubine Shu doesn’t like me in the first place, if she knows that you brothers are not harmonious because of me, Concubine Shu will dislike me even more.”

When the woman's soft voice came, Cheng Yuguan instantly understood that this was the legendary fifth prince whom Cheng Hou's family wanted to do everything possible to achieve good things!
"Yulou, don't underestimate yourself. It's not that the concubine doesn't like you, it's just that there are too many rules in the palace, and she can't make decisions about my marriage, so she shirks in front of you. Don't worry, since your eldest sister Cheng Yuguan won't work here, When I go back, I will ask my mother and concubine to find a way to blow the wind to my father, so that my father can marry you and me."

The man seemed to be patting his chest to assure that Cheng Yuguan could even feel the vibration of the wall behind him.

Could it be that the "little couple" were hiding on the other side of the side door and talking?
Cheng Yuguan guessed.

Seeing Cheng Yuguan's expression, Li Mian nodded to her, indicating that she had guessed right.

It turns out that the Ninghui Hall is at the northernmost part of the former dynasty, next to the harem, and not far from the Imperial Dining Room and Donghua Gate. It is not far from the noisy place where the Imperial Dining Room trades melons, fruits and vegetables on weekdays, and because it is an important dining hall, So every day when I go to the restaurant, there will be heavy soldiers coming to guard it. In the Ninghui Palace, there are usually no former officials working or passing by here. Someone is coming.

The fourth prince Li Mian used to come to Ninghui Hall to read books when he was a child, and when he was tired, he would look at the melons, fruits and vegetables trade outside the palace on the second floor, using the bustling atmosphere of the market to relieve his fatigue.

Unexpectedly, the fifth prince loved to show off when he was a child, but when he grows up, he also knows to come to this secluded place to talk about love.

Now the two brothers bumped into each other, only separated by a wall, which is really embarrassing.

Listening to the conversation on the other side of the wall, Cheng Yuguan became more careless and gentle, and Cheng Yuguan took a peek at Li Mian, how should he get away?

Li Mian was also looking at Cheng Yuguan at this time. He was tall and was condescending at the moment. Seeing Cheng Yuguan's embarrassed expression, it was a little funny.

The thieves weren't embarrassed at all, it was embarrassing for them to run into each other.

Seeing that Li Mian was actually smiling, Cheng Yuguan couldn't help but glared, signaling him to think of a way quickly, if there was really something out of bounds behind the wall, it would be even more embarrassing.

Seeing Cheng Yuguan's eyes beckoning, Li Mian raised his hand unhurriedly, and skillfully pulled a pearl from Cheng Yuguan's hairpin. Although the pearl was not expensive, it was not small.

Li Mian raised his hand and lightly threw the beads from the side door through the door. With a "click", there was a sound from the corner of the side door.

"what sound?"

Cheng Yulou's panicked voice came.

"Who's pretending to be a ghost?"

The good thing was disturbed, Fifth Prince Li Ke whispered.

He knew that there was an imperial dining room not far away, and there were people on duty in it, so he would not shout loudly without any scruples.

"How can this be good?"

"It's okay, it should be the little yellow gate passing by. I'll take you out of the palace first, and I'll come back to take care of it later."

As the sound faded away, Cheng Yuguan breathed a sigh of relief, the feeling of eavesdropping was not good.

"Are you still going?"

Li Mian looked at Cheng Yuguan and said.

Cheng Yu nodded, "Go!"

There are people everywhere in the harem, and there is a secluded place like Ninghui Palace, of course she is willing to go and see it.

After waiting for a while, Li Mian took Cheng Yuguan out of the side door. On the road, the beads that were thrown out just now to scare the snakes were gone, but they were not unique treasures, and Cheng Yuguan didn't care about them.

"The first floor is a bookshelf, and the second floor has a place to rest. If you fancy this place, I'll have someone transfer a set of tables, chairs and a soft couch from the Anthology Court for you to rest on."

Li Mian led Cheng Yuguan, pointing to the Ninghui Palace and introducing it.

Cheng Yu nodded, "Thank you, Fourth Prince."

Li Mian frowned unconsciously when Cheng Yuguan called him the fourth prince, "Your uncle's family has three cousins, and I am the fourth cousin, so you can call me the fourth brother. Call me the fourth prince and let the queen hear it. It's not my fault."

"Fourth Brother!"

When Cheng Yuguan heard the words, he called out "fourth brother" generously.

She grew up with the three elder brothers of the patriarch's uncle's family, so she naturally has no objection to recognizing one more brother.

Hearing Cheng Yuguan's crisp voice, Li Mian's mouth curled up almost imperceptibly for a moment.

"Okay, the bookshelves on the east side are full of lonely and miscellaneous books collected in the palace. If you want to read them, you can find them. On the west side, they are all copies of local chronicles and news stories from various places. I need to look them up here. Some information, you can do it yourself."

After speaking, Li Mian went to the tall bookshelf and began to look for the required information. Cheng Yuguan followed Li Mian's instructions, went to the east bookshelf, found a miscellaneous book, and flipped through it.

In Ninghui Hall, there was a moment of relative silence.

After a while, Cheng Yuguan found a book and came to the desk at the door to sit down and read. Li Mian also found the local chronicles of Mindi from the bookshelf and came to the Xichuang desk.

The two sat opposite each other, and it took more than half an hour to see.

Li Mian raised her head first, rubbed the bridge of her nose, and closed the book. Seeing that Cheng Yuguan was still reading seriously, she wanted to tell her to stop and go back to the harem, but stopped halfway.

Walking around behind Cheng Yuguan, sure enough, she found a local chronicle and read it with gusto instead of serious ancient Chinese.Seeing the geographical location, he was still gesticulating in his hand, as if he wanted to understand the distribution of customs.

"It's not honest to go to school."

Li Mian's voice sounded next to his ear, and Cheng Yuguan snapped back to his senses, leaving the world in the book.

"Huh? What's the matter? Are you leaving? I'm leaving now."

Cheng Yuguan closed the book, put the book back in its original place in a smooth manner, and walked back to Li Mian.

Seeing Cheng Yuguan's skillful movements, Li Mian knew that she should not have been an honest student when she was a child.He didn't pursue her either, and walked out.

Back in the corridor again, this was the urgency when Li Mian was gone when the sun had already set in the west, and he told Cheng Yuguan beside him while walking.

"The queen mother is busy every day. When you are bored, you can come to the Ninghui Palace to read and avoid going to the Royal Garden. There are too many people there. With your temper, you will not be happy if you go there."

Cheng Yu nodded, "Listen to the fourth brother."

Li Mian is the seated householder of the imperial palace, Cheng Yuguan naturally wants to listen to his experience.

And she doesn't like dealing with people, especially dealing with people in the harem.

After all, she is a foreigner, and she is very conspicuous in the harem, and she doesn't plan to live in the palace for a long time. She is a person who has a lot of friends and is well-rounded. If she has a place where she can stay safely, she is naturally happy to go.

"But you don't have to care too much about others. You are from the mother's harem. When you go out and meet people, just show your aura and put on airs. Others will not dare to provoke you easily."

"Well," Cheng Yu nodded, "Listen to the fourth brother."

Seeing that Cheng Yuguan was sensible and obedient, Li Mian continued, "To go to Ninghui Hall, it's best to pass through this corridor after noon. Except for the guards, there is generally no one here, and even if there are, they are just borrowing the way." The yellow gate is clean."

"Well, listen to the fourth brother."

...

"Chen Xiang, do you know your mistake?"

In the Jingyuan hall of Chenghou's mansion, butter candles were shaking, and in the side inner room, the old lady was sitting on a soft couch, and Nanny Lai stood beside her, with a chill on her face, she pointed at Chen Xiang who was kneeling on the ground and said sharply.

Chen Xiang didn't dare to raise her head at all, she was selected by Lai Madam to be a maid in the mansion from Zhuang Shengzi, so naturally she should thank Lai Momo for her kindness.

Even though Nanny Lai asked her to keep an eye on the eldest lady, she was willing.

Unexpectedly, the seemingly straight-tempered eldest lady pretended to be confused, playing in the mansion for a while, and hid everyone in the mansion from her, including her personal servant girl.

"Nurse, the eldest lady has plans to become a successor from Chengjia Village, her ancestral home. Otherwise, she would not have prepared so well, and even asked the young master to bring the succession documents. The eldest lady has planned for many days, and she has been careful and concealed All the people in the mansion, the servants are also ordinary servants, how can they see through the heart of the eldest lady!"

Chen Xiang complained for himself.The eldest lady has been in the mansion for so many days, and only before entering the palace today, did she go out of her way once and gave the beads to the maid who served her for a while.

But at that time, all the masters in the mansion were going to enter the palace, and it was impossible for her to report to Nanny Lai without telling the eldest lady.Therefore, the matter of the beads was concealed by Chen Xiang.

Presumably it was the eldest lady who made up her mind that she would never come back once she left the mansion, so she distributed the things to them.

Thinking of the first day when she entered the mansion, the eldest lady had an outburst, making people think that she was a simple-minded and straight-tempered person, but later on she refused to let anyone, and lived in a simple place, only taking out the dowry of the first wife to talk about things.

If this person has a weakness, it will be reassuring.

All the masters in the mansion were annoyed at the embarrassment of the late wife's dowry, but also relieved that the eldest lady had something to care about.

Who would have thought that the eldest lady did it on purpose, just to make everyone in the house relax their vigilance, thinking that there was an exchange, so they took her into the palace to match the second lady and the fifth prince with confidence.

Now that the young lady has successfully stayed in the palace, the dowries, even the shop, were all kept in the mansion, and none of them was taken, which made everyone in the mansion lose their vigilance.

If it were known that the young lady's plan was to succeed, no matter what, it would not be so easy to bring Cheng Yuguan into the palace, thus giving her a backer.

"If I had known today, I should have let Master Hou teach the young lady a lesson, and it can be regarded as the anger that the young lady has been messing with in the mansion for many days."

Mammy Lai said bitterly.

The old lady was still twisting the vajra bead string, but now she opened her eyes and looked at Nanny Lai, "Go to Xuewu Lane and find a way to get the successor document from that kid Cheng Lang, be careful, don't let him Suspicious. Don't let it out about Cheng Yu's entry into the palace."

"Yes, old lady."

Nanny Lai should be, and then walked out with Chen Xiang.

...

"Mother, did eldest sister stay in the palace like this?"

In the Hou Mansion, in Lingxi Courtyard, Cheng Yulou took his mother's hand and said angrily in disbelief.

You know, the empress is from a noble family and has a good reputation, so the noble ladies in Beijing are proud to be able to live in the palace and be taught by the empress.

So far in the capital, there are only a few royal princesses and princesses who have entered the palace to enjoy this honor. Unexpectedly, by mistake, Cheng Yuguan also stayed in the Queen's Fengyi Palace.

Cheng Yulou was naturally unwilling and a little envious.

Yang hugged her daughter distressedly, and comforted her, "Don't worry, the eldest lady will not succeed so easily if she wants to become an heir. Let her be proud in the palace for two days first."

When it came to succession, Cheng Yulou hesitated, "Isn't it good for big sister to succeed?"

In this way, she is the only prostitute in the mansion.

Mrs. Yang patted her daughter's hand and said softly, "It's because her succession is beneficial to us, but this is what she wants, so she has to pay a price. How can a person achieve a wish without paying a price? "
