Glory all the way

Chapter 71 Rumors
There was a faint fragrance in the inner hall. Holding a cup of hot tea in her hand, Bai Yingluo lowered her head and watched the tea leaves float and fall in the water, her mood was unprecedentedly peaceful.

The hot air made Bai Yingluo's face foggy, and the sixth princess just looked at her quietly, but felt a little unspeakable sadness in her heart.

After getting to know each other for nearly half a year, in the eyes of the sixth princess, Bai Yingluo is probably the best girl to get along with in the capital.

She is generous and gentle without being pretentious, she is gentle, kind and straightforward, in the hearts of the sixth princess, even Bai Yingluo is treated better than Lin Zhimei who has known each other for more than ten years.

Therefore, when she knew that Lin Zhiyu liked Bai Yingluo in her heart, the sixth princess had some reason to look forward to it. She hoped that Brother Yu, whom she had looked up to since she was a child, could give Yingluo happiness.

But just now, Bai Yingluo said in a calm tone: "I am an orphan from the Jing'an Marquis Mansion, and he is the eldest son of Beining Bo Mansion, princess, do you think we are compatible? If it were you, Would you like your son to marry a daughter-in-law who will not help him at all?"

For a moment, the sixth princess somewhat understood that Bai Yingluo had been resisting indistinctly these days.

After understanding this, the sixth princess felt more and more fond of Bai Yingluo. These days, the two of them got along like sisters. How she wished that Bai Yingluo, who was as tough as a small flower blooming in the corner of the wall in the cold wind, could be treated sincerely. She is the one who is willing to protect her all her life, but now, the only possibility seems to be shattered.

"Wreaths……"

There was some impetuousness in the words that could not be calmed down. The sixth princess sighed and said, "I'm sorry, I was thinking too much. I always thought that you are so good and worthy of the love of any man in the world. Only now did I realize that I am a living man. I'm in a beautiful illusion that I wove, I'm sorry..."

Putting down the tea bowl, she put warm palms on Princess Six's hands. Bai Yingluo shook her head with a smile, "Princess, I know that you treat me well, and I know it all. But, Lin Shizi and I have no possibility, so, in the future Don't bother the princess, lest unnecessary misunderstandings be caused."

The sixth princess nodded affirmatively.

After talking, Bai Yingluo and the sixth princess no longer had the slight alienation they had in the past few days. After talking and laughing for a while, they went to rest after lunch.

After the talent class was over, Bai Yingluo didn't stay in Yunrou Palace any more, and went straight out of the palace and returned home.

The Sixth Princess returned to the inner hall, looked at the brocade box lying quietly on the dressing table, opened it and took out the mutton jade hairpin, feeling startled for a moment.

I don't know how long it took, a servant from the outside reported that the prince and Lin Zhiyu had arrived, and the sixth princess closed the brocade box, got up and left the inner hall.

"Brother Prince, Brother Yu, why are you here?"

Lin Zhiyu has been looking in the direction of the inner hall since he entered the main hall. Seeing the sixth princess coming out alone, there was a bit of loneliness in his eyes. Also pretending to be ignorant, he stepped forward and dragged the prince and Lin Zhiyu to sit down, while asking affectionately.

"Mei'er came to the palace to thank you, and went to Ninghua Palace. I will definitely come here to talk to you in a while, so we came here to wait for her."

The prince laughed.

The sixth princess nodded. On the side, Lihua and Taohua brought tea and snacks up. After talking for a while, Lin Zhimei arrived.

After less than half an hour, Lin Zhiyu and Lin Zhimei got up to say goodbye, the crown prince nodded in agreement, left Yunrou Hall, and went straight back to the East Palace.

I thought I would meet Bai Yingluo, and I would have a chance to ask her if she liked the mutton jade hairpin, but Lin Zhiyu was full of disappointment when he didn't meet her.

The two brothers and sisters were walking towards the gate of the inner palace, after only a few steps, the voice of the sixth princess came from behind.

"Brother Yu, I have something to say to you."

Glancing at Lin Zhimei, Lin Zhimei walked forward knowingly, and then stepped on the pedals to get into the carriage. The sixth princess turned around, took out the brocade box from the sleeve and handed it to Lin Zhiyu.

Lin Zhiyu only felt that his breathing was stagnant, and his arms seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't lift them up.

After a stalemate for a while, Lin Zhiyu took the brocade box and held it tightly in his hand.

"Brother Yu, I can tell that Yingluo actually has a crush on you. However, Yingluo's life experience is destined not to be a good match for you. If that's the case, if you swing the sword to cut the thread of love, each other's hearts will be happier. What do you say?"

The sixth princess spoke quickly.

Looking sideways at the Meiyuan in the distance, Lin Zhiyu's eyes showed some slight pain, but the embarrassment flashed past, before the sixth princess could see clearly, Lin Zhiyu's complexion returned to normal in an instant .

"It's okay, I have my own calculations in my heart..."

Nodding his head, Lin Zhiyu raised his hand and patted the head of the sixth princess affectionately, "When the sun sets, it gets colder, you should go back quickly, lest you have to take medicine when you catch a cold, and then you should cry again." It's..."

After finishing speaking, Lin Zhiyu nodded to the sixth princess.

Seeing her walking away, Lin Zhiyu suppressed the smile on his face, turned around and walked to the carriage, and sat down by the door.

"Master, please get into the carriage, the wind is blowing cold..."

Seeing that Lin Zhiyu didn't move, the little eunuch who was driving the carriage persuaded him with some panic.

"Hurry up..."

Lin Zhiyu leaned against a corner of the car wall, lazily crossed his arms and spoke.

Not daring to say any more, the little eunuch waved his whip, and the carriage galloped towards the outside of the palace.

The bitter cold wind slid across his face, and Lin Zhiyu's eyes were so cold that there was no warmth. Thinking about what the sixth princess said just now, Lin Zhiyu seemed to have made up his mind, with infinite perseverance on his face.

In the next few days, Bai Yingluo never saw Lin Zhiyu again, and the sixth princess no longer whispered long and short words to her elder brother in Bai Yingluo's ear. Everything seemed to be back to the point where Bai Yingluo didn't know Lin Zhiyu The peace before giving.

However, gradually, Bai Yingluo felt that the maidservants of Xinlan Pavilion looked at her with a trace of curiosity. Whenever she appeared, their eyes met, as if silently Say "is that her" "really her".

At first I thought it was because I was overthinking, but that afternoon, when I heard Dou Xiuqiao and the others whispering gossip in the hall, Bai Yingluo's eyes gradually turned cold.

The winter snow was flying outside the hall, and the inside of the hall was as warm as spring. Although there was a door, those cold words overflowed mercilessly.

"How is it impossible? My mother said that the most unpredictable thing in this world is the human heart. Don't look at her being cautious in front of the empress and the sixth princess on weekdays, and well-behaved in front of the masters, but what is she like in secret? Who knows? We are all blinded by the illusion she showed..."

One of the ladies whispered, Bai Yingluo knew it without looking, she must have a face of contempt and disdain, and the "she" in the words was naturally not present.

"Impossible? I heard from my grandmother that she has been weak since she was a child. She has never been out of the house a few times since she grew up. There are so many rich families in the capital. Although they all know that there is a sixth lady in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, it can be seen that There are not many people who passed by. What's more, the uncle Beining is still a foreigner, so I'm afraid it's not so easy to see."

Bai Yingluo recognized that it was Sun Yantong's voice.

Although the two of them didn't talk much now, what Sun Yantong said was really helping Bai Yingluo, and Bai Yingluo was very grateful.

"I can't see it all..."

Dou Xiuqiao opened the mouth and said: "The Marquis of Jing'an attacked the Jue, the old Marquis celebrated his birthday, and the excitement of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion never missed Beining Bo's mansion? The two met each other, did they still tell the man with drums and gongs?" Can the people on the street know? Although we don't know about those things, but now, under the guise of the sixth princess, Bai Yingluo has approached Beining Bo Shizi many times. Talking and laughing happily, each and every one of them is obvious to all."

"That's right, it's hard to find someone as talented as Beining Bo's son in the whole capital with lanterns on. I heard that many people come to ask for marriage and want to marry their daughter to Beining Bo's mansion. Although Bai Yingluo is a nobleman Miss, you have killed your parents, you are just an orphan girl, if you want to climb up to Beining Bo's son, you are really beyond your limits..."

The girls spoke to each other, making Bai Yingluo's words extremely unbearable. Between the lines, they believed that Bai Yingluo had seduced the Beining uncle's son without shame, for the purpose of marrying into the Beining uncle's mansion. To be the concubine of the world.

Bai Yingluo stood on the spot, her hands tightly clenched into fists, but before she could figure out how to deal with it, the door was kicked open, the sixth princess grabbed Bai Yingluo and stepped into the palace door, her face ashen rushed The few people who turned pale in front of them shouted: "If you have the guts, say it in front of your face. You are gentle as a flower in front of you and gossip in the back. What kind of boudoir ladies are you? You are even more shameless than the gossips on the street. It's really disgusting." ..."

What the sixth princess said was a bit rude, and it really lost the dignity of the royal family, but in this empty space, how could anyone care to look for her? Immediately, the five girls who were reprimanded blushed and knelt down. He fell to the ground and kowtowed to plead guilty.

The hall was a noisy mess, but it suddenly fell silent, and looking back, Mrs. Mo Zhe was standing by the door with his hands behind his back, but the wrinkled smile of the past was no longer on his face.

At the end of the lesson, Master Mo Zhe waved his hand and dismissed everyone in the hall, but his eyes were still focused on the chess game in front of him.

Until there was no one else in the hall, Master Mo Zhe threw the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box, looked up at Bai Yingluo and asked kindly, "Are you feeling wronged?"

I thought Mrs. Mo Zhe had already paid no attention to these things at his age, but unexpectedly, he had already seen and heard them.

Bai Yingluo nodded, then shook her head again, "Rumors stop with wise men, Yingluo has a clear conscience."

"Haha...you have a clear conscience, now it seems that I am worrying too much, old man."

In a happy mood, Master Mo Zhe picked up the chess pieces and told Bai Yingluo a few things that happened to him when he was young. Bai Yingluo also understood the hidden meaning behind it. Caring discourse replaced.

Coming out of Xinlan Pavilion, there are still a few light red lights left in the western sky, and the whole sky is about to be replaced by gray haze.

Speeding up her pace, Bai Yingluo rushed to the gate of the inner palace, got into the carriage and left the palace.

Returning to Jing'anhou's Mansion, he took Tassels and walked towards Chenghuanju, just entered the corridor and walked a few steps, when he met Bai Yingyun, she seemed to come to greet her specially.

"Bai Yingluo, you are really shameless..."

Regardless of the presence of Liusu and Xiyan beside her, Bai Yingyun glared at Bai Yingluo and shouted sharply.
