Glory all the way

Chapter 18
"The sixth princess's biological mother is Mrs. Xi, and Mrs. Xi went out from the empress's side. Therefore, among the concubines in the palace, the empress treated Mrs. Xi very kindly. Later, when Xigui gave birth to the sixth princess, Difficult childbirth, she passed away before confinement, so the sixth princess has been raised by the empress's side since she was born. Apart from the prince, the empress's knee is the young princess nine, so the princess in the palace Everyone, apart from the ninth princess, the sixth princess has the most honorable status."

In the Qing'an hall, after Mrs. Xue finished talking about what happened after meeting the empress, the old lady Bai kindly talked about the origin of the sixth princess.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xue suddenly realized something and said, "No wonder, when the Empress heard that Sister Luo's parents died early, she would not think that she was unknown, but instead said that Sister Luo was a poor person."

Sighing with some emotion, Mrs. Xue raised her eyes to look at the old lady Bai, "Old lady, with the empress's pity, Sister Luo's marriage will not be as difficult as it used to be, you can relax and don't take it too far." worried."

Nodding her head, the old lady Bai was still a little worried, "Seeing that Sister Luo is already twelve years old, and her birthday will be over, she will be a 13-year-old girl. This marriage has not yet settled down. In my heart, Can you not be uncomfortable?"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked for a while, and Mrs. Xue kept trying to persuade the old lady Bai, thinking that this matter could not be resolved in a hurry, so the old lady Bai eased off a bit.

Coming out of Qing'an Hall, Mrs. Xue went straight to Yi'an Pavilion.

At lunch time, in front of the whole family, Mrs. Xue explained how she went to the palace at noon to apologize, and how Bai Yingluo would replace Bai Yingyun in the palace to accompany the six princesses.

Bai Yingluo had already learned about this from Mrs. Xue, so there was no emotion on her face. On the other hand, the second master and his wife were a little embarrassing, and Bai Yingyun's face was flushed red. If there were no elders in front of her, she would definitely cry sound.

Returning from Qing'an Hall to Qiu Ranxuan, the second master scolded Bai Yingyun angrily again, and then went to the study to take a nap.

Bai Yingyun leaned against her mother, crying pitifully, as if her big face was snatched away by Bai Yingluo that day, not because she lost it by accident.

"Mother, I was wrong. If I hadn't been so petty, this good thing would definitely not have happened to that damn girl."

Bai Yingyun choked and said.

She secretly sighed a few times in her heart, but the matter has come to an end, and it is useless to complain any more, the second lady softly coaxed Bai Yingyun and said, "You will learn your wisdom from a pitfall, and from now on, everything should be in the long run, and it can't be like this time. Yes, you know?"

Bai Yingyun nodded, and asked back: "Mother, then this time, are you going to let that damn girl take advantage of it?"

In the eyes of the second lady, there was a faint smile of disdain, "A companion is like a tiger, the sixth princess is the proud daughter of heaven, besides, didn't you say that the sixth princess is very difficult to get along with, my mother doesn't believe it , Liu Yatou can turn the situation around and make the sixth princess look at her differently. So, let's wait and see."

Thinking of the disgusting look in the eyes of the sixth princess when she looked at her, although Bai Yingyun felt a little uncomfortable, she could save others by herself, but the sixth princess knew that Bai Yingluo was her own sister, so she might not give her any good looks.

Thinking like this, Bai Yingyun's heart improved slightly, and she only waited for the day when Bai Yingluo also came back crying, and then she could relieve her anger.

On June [-], after Bai Yingyun entered the palace to accompany her for nine days and was sent home, Bai Yingluo began to enter the palace to accompany the sixth princess.

In Ninghua Palace, the empress's deliberate gentle attitude calmed down Bai Yingluo's heart a little bit, and eased the uneasiness before coming here.

However, when she arrived at the sixth princess's bedroom, Yunrou Hall, Bai Yingluo felt a slap in the face.

"The queen mother chose you to enter the palace because she wanted you to accompany me to learn etiquette, not to let me accompany you. Miss Bai, you have already missed ten days of homework. Why, didn't sister Ling teach you?"

The Sixth Princess Song Siran looked at Bai Yingluo with a worried expression and asked.

The sixth princess is fourteen years old this year, and after the new year, she will reach Jiji, and not long after Jiji, she will welcome the envoy of Da'an Kingdom to marry Da'an.

With fair skin, willow eyebrows and almond eyes, she is still underage, the Sixth Princess already has the appearance of a stunning beauty, and it is self-evident what she will look like after Jiji is over.

At this moment, the sixth princess looked at Bai Yingluo with a cold face, with a noble and awe-inspiring air.

Bai Yingluo lowered her head, quickly thinking about the words to respond.

If you answer "yes" to the sixth princess's question, it means that you have a bad relationship with the two sisters, Bai Yingyun, and the rumor will spread, adding a few bad rumors to the Jing'an Hou Mansion for no reason.If the answer is "no", and I will have class together later, I have not learned anything from Bai Yingyun, so I will definitely show my feet.

Looking up at the six princesses with a sneering smile, Bai Yingluo lowered her head and replied softly: "My sister said that no one can match the beauty of the princess, if she were to teach me, it would be even more difficult to learn the indecent moves. If you make a mistake, painting a tiger will not be a dog, but it will affect the princess, so let Yingluo learn from the beginning."

Seeing that the sixth princess was silent, Bai Yingluo quickly assured her: "Yingluo must practice hard, and she will definitely not miss too much homework. Please rest assured, princess."

The willow eyebrows were raised lightly, and the corners of the six princesses' lips parted, revealing a coquettish smile, "In this case, let's learn from the kneeling ceremony. Lihua..."

"The servant is here."

Beside the sixth princess, a pretty seventeen or eighteen-year-old palace maid responded with a loud voice.

"It's up to you to teach Miss Bai how to kneel, and when she learns it properly, you can take her to Xinlan Pavilion."

After the sixth princess stood up and gave her orders, she glanced at Bai Yingluo, turned around and left with her maidservant.

"Miss Bai Liu, Xinlan Pavilion is the place where the sixth princess and the ladies learn etiquette from the etiquette master. After a few days, you will also learn etiquette there every day."

When the sixth princess came out of the palace gate, the palace maid named Lihua helped Bai Yingluo and said.

"In this way, there will be Miss Lao Lihua."

Nodding to show that she understood, Bai Yingluo spoke to Lihua politely, while calmly taking out a purse containing gold nude seeds from her sleeve pocket, and stuffing it into Lihua.

Xu Shi Sixth Princess had confessed that Bai Yingluo had been learning to kneel with Lihua all afternoon, and repeated the movements of getting up and kneeling for more than an hour, until finally she could rest, Bai Yingluo only felt dizzy and dizzy. Will faint.

She followed Lihua to the arranged bedroom and had lunch, then rested for a while, before Bai Yingluo arrived at Xinlan Pavilion.

Xinlan Pavilion is located in the southeast corner of the palace, not far from Yunrou Palace, where the sixth princess lives.

Bai Yingluo waited for a cup of tea under the eaves in front of Xinlan Pavilion, and the other five ladies arrived one after another.

Among them, except for Dou Xiuqiao, the daughter-in-law of Prime Minister Dou's family, the others are all from prestigious mansions in the capital, and their identities are not much different from Bai Yingluo.

Those five young ladies entered the palace ten days earlier than Bai Yingluo, and they are already familiar with each other now. Seeing Bai Yingluo standing under the eaves, they all whispered to each other, but no one took the initiative to talk to her.

Bai Yingluo's complexion remained unchanged, but she smiled wryly in her heart: In the past few days, it can be seen that Bai Yingyun did not get along with them very well, otherwise, for a girl of this age, she is the most kind and loving to make friends, how could she be like this? Treat yourself coldly.

Before Bai Yingluo took the initiative to introduce herself and chat with them for a while, the sixth princess came with her maidservants in the distance.

The sixth princess entered the Xinlan Pavilion with her front foot, and the teacher who taught her entered the door with her back foot.

The etiquette class specially set up for the six princesses in the palace not only includes Daan's royal etiquette, but also includes piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Learn etiquette at noon, and learn piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, embroidery, etc. in the two hours in the afternoon.

Today, it's the turn to play the piano.

In Xinlan Pavilion, in addition to the first master's piano case, there are three rows of piano cases in the lower master's place.

The piano case in the first row undoubtedly belonged to the sixth princess.

There are two rows after the six princesses, each row has three piano tables, Bai Yingluo walked to the piano table at the end of the right hand very consciously, and when they were all seated, Bai Yingluo bent her knees and sat down gracefully.

As soon as Fang took her seat, Bai Yingluo immediately felt a heart-rending pain from her knees. Needless to say, after learning the kneeling ceremony all afternoon, her knees must have turned green and red by now.

On weekdays in the Marquis Mansion, when there is nothing to do, Bai Yingluo can also play the piano. Now that she can get the guidance of a famous teacher, Bai Yingluo is very happy. After a while, the pain on her knee was forgotten by her.

Two hours passed quickly.

"That's the end of today's piano art class. It's time for the school exam in three days. The sixth princess and the six ladies must practice hard when they go back. get out of class is over..."

After the class was over, the master nodded and left Xinlan Pavilion.

The sixth princess stood up, smiled and said: "That's the end of today, you all go back. Miss Bai stays..."

It seemed that she had expected to be treated differently. Seeing the other five young ladies get up, Bai Yingluo did not move. Now that the sixth princess had spoken, Bai Yingluo nodded in response. They looked at each other, and immediately exited Xinlan Pavilion in a regular manner.

For a moment, only Bai Yingluo and the sixth princess remained in the Xinlan Pavilion.

"The song just now, and the fingering in the middle, I'm not very proficient, Miss Bai, please show me, please?"

The sixth princess got up and walked to the piano table next to Bai Yingluo and sat down, looking at Bai Yingluo with clear eyes.

With a deep sigh in her heart, Bai Yingluo nodded, lightly raised her hands above the guqin, and slowed down her movements as a gesture.

On the side, the sixth princess watched intently, and suddenly, she frowned slightly and shook her head, "Master, it seems to be faster than this..."

Bai Yingluo started to play with her fingers nimbly, next to her ears were the voices of the sixth princess from time to time.

The sky was getting darker, I don't know how many times I played that section, Bai Yingluo played it numbly, until the sixth princess impatiently said "Forget it for now", Bai Yingluo let go of her hand .

Looking at the slender fingers that were originally as thin and white as spring onions, which were red and swollen like radishes, Bai Yingluo's eyes gradually dimmed with the sky outside.
