Glory all the way

Chapter 81 Whispers
"The Uncle Zhongshan's Mansion has married the Song Mansion, the governor of the Jianghuai River. I heard that the two families just exchanged Geng Tie a few days ago, and they are planning to choose an auspicious day to make a small appointment in the next few days."

There was a hint of weakness in the voice, the second lady looked at Bai Yingyun whose face was getting paler and paler, and swallowed all her original complaints and reproaches.

Raising her hand to caress Bai Yingyun's icy cheeks, the second lady coaxed softly: "The old man often says that if it's yours, it's yours, and no one can take it away. If it's not yours, it's useless to force it. Yun'er, you and The son of Uncle Zhongshan is predestined, so don't think about it, okay? You also met your eldest cousin. Although he is not good at talking, he is a very good person, and he is good at learning. He will gain fame in the future , the future is even more limitless, you, just stay at home and wait for marriage, and after the wedding, you can marry and be your young mistress, huh?"

Talking to herself, seeing Bai Yingyun's silence, the second lady thought she had acquiesced, and patted her hand comfortingly, then turned around and left, thinking in her heart to settle the marriage between Su Wenyuan and Bai Yingyun as soon as possible, so as not to Long nights and many dreams.

What's more, today Bai Yingyun invited Beining uncle and Zhongshan uncle to talk successively. The servants in the mansion must have seen it.

Thinking about it this way, when the second lady returned to Qiu Ranxuan, she would feel even more restless.

Kankan waited for the second master to come back, the husband and wife carefully considered it for a long time, and in the early morning of the second day, the second lady ordered the maid beside her to invite Mrs. Su over.

Bai Yingluo had already learned about these things from Liu Ying, but Bai Yingluo didn't intend to read Bai Yingyun's jokes. When she woke up early, Bai Yingluo carefully told the maids in Lanxin Pavilion that no one should say a word, otherwise she would immediately throw out.

In the early morning of the sixth day, Bai Yingluo got up and went to Qing'an Hall to have breakfast with her grandparents before leaving the house.

The carriage galloped towards the palace, through the half-closed curtain, Bai Yingluo looked at the scenery outside without moving her eyes.

In the past, Bai Yingluo could clearly see what the streets of the capital looked like when she entered the palace every day, but now, after only a few days without going out, there was already a sea of ​​red outside.

The eighteenth day of the first lunar month is the day of the prince's wedding, and it's only the sixth day of the new year, and the decorations have already been arranged in various places in the capital. I think it will be more festive and lively when it comes to the official day.

Entering the palace, there is also a sense of joy everywhere.

In Yunrou Hall, the sixth princess was already waiting bored. After hearing the news from the maid, the sixth princess ran out with her skirt in her hand. Seeing Bai Yingluo, she said happily, "Yingluo, you are here. Almost bored to death."

"Princess, you are not allowed to say inauspicious words for this New Year's Eve. You will surely live a long life."

Seeing the surprised faces of Lihua and Taohua beside her, Bai Yingluo said with a smile.

Holding hands and entering the inner room, the sixth princess pointed to several trays on the brocade table at Bai Yingluo, "Hey, that's a New Year gift from me, you can't refuse it."

The Sixth Princess had always been kind to Bai Yingluo, and Bai Yingluo knew her temperament, so she complied with a smile and told her the interesting things she had seen and heard in the past few days.

Near noon, the maidservant of Ninghua Palace came to pass the message, and the queen asked the sixth princess to bring Bai Yingluo to have lunch.

This is the first time to have dinner with the queen, and Bai Yingluo felt a little apprehensive. On the way to Ninghua Palace, the sixth princess asked with some doubts: "Yingluo, did you meet me before entering the palace to study with you?" Empress?"

Bai Yingluo shook her head.

"Then... your mother, or someone close to you, has ever mentioned you in front of your mother?"

After asking, she thought that Bai Yingluo had never met her mother before, so it was a waste of time to ask. The sixth princess said to herself: "Every time the queen mother mentions you, her eyes are always filled with pity. That expression is like a memory. Like an old friend for many years, with a sad face. That day I asked my mother not to choose you as a dowry. My mother also said that even if I chose you as a dowry, she would not let you stay away from the capital and away from your parents. of."

What the six princesses said made Bai Yingluo feel at a loss. Thinking about how many times she went to Ninghua Palace to pay her respects, the queen looked at her with extremely gentle eyes. Bai Yingluo even believed that the queen was deliberately gentle to herself. .

After all, it happened in the past, maybe it was the grievances and grievances between the previous generation, the two of them probably couldn't figure out the reason just based on guesswork, so the sixth princess and Bai Yingluo didn't say anything more.

When I arrived at Ninghua Palace, I saw the prince and the ninth princess were there, and the expression on the prince's face was even more indifferent, as if he was not at all excited about the upcoming wedding.

At the end of lunch, the prince greeted the queen and left. The queen's eyes were filled with apology, which was replaced by determination. Looking back, it was about the sixth princess.

"Letters have been sent from the border post station. Da'an's wedding reception team has already set off. It is estimated that they will arrive in the capital at the end of the month. These days, you can stop messing around. Look at the books and embroidery, and take care of your temper. .”

The Queen said softly.

She nodded obediently, and the sixth princess said softly and coquettishly: "Queen, why don't you let Yingluo come into the palace to accompany me? Otherwise, I'll be bored in Yunrou Palace by myself, so boring..."

Pursing her lips and smiling, the queen shook her head and said: "On the eighth day of the lunar new year, those two ladies have entered the palace. When the time comes, the three of you will be together as companions, so you can get to know each other well before going to Da'an."

What the queen said was naturally the two young ladies who were chosen as the dowry for the sixth princess.

Hearing this, knowing that there is no room for change in this matter, the sixth princess glanced at Bai Yingluo with some disappointment, and did not continue to entangle with it.

After talking for a while, a palace servant told the story that a foreign woman entered the palace to pay her respects to the queen. The sixth princess hurriedly got up and saluted, and dragged Bai Yingluo out of Ninghua Palace.

"Sitting with those wives, I really feel uncomfortable all over. I said a lot of flattering words without repeating them. I got goosebumps all over my body when I heard them."

Shrugging her shoulders and making a chilling exaggerated gesture, the sixth princess winked at Bai Yingluo, "Today, let's go arty for a while, and we have lived up to the Spring Festival..."

Before the sixth princess finished speaking, fine snowflakes floated in the sky. In an instant, the sixth princess became more and more joyful, "It can be seen that God is also facing us, hurry up..."

Bai Yingluo was confused, but she didn't bother to ask, so she was dragged into the plum grove by the sixth princess's hand. When she saw the situation in the gazebo, Bai Yingluo couldn't help laughing.

A huge gazebo, surrounded by thick tapestry, has now become a small airtight room, and in the two copper furnaces inside, small flames are dancing wantonly on the red charcoal fire, which will continuously The hot air is transmitted outwards.

When Princess Six and Bai Yingluo opened the corner of the tapestry and entered, the airtight gazebo was as warm as spring.

After ordering the servants in the palace to pick plum branches to fetch snow water, the sixth princess led Bai Yingluo to the stone table and sat down, propping her chin with both hands and said: "We will bring snow water in a while, let's make tea and drink, and see Mei Xue Does the brewed tea really have a refreshing plum fragrance?"

It turns out that folding plums and cooking wine is what the sixth princess said, imitating the arty of the predecessors.

Bai Yingluo nodded with a smile, and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, let Yingluo do the tea for today, and let the princess taste Yingluo's craftsmanship."

It was snowing all over the sky, and in a short while, the sky and the earth became a vast expanse of whiteness. The gazebo covered by the tapestry, and the gaps between the joints kept leaking heat, and the heat was dense. Gradually, the entire gazebo became invisible It's clear, I can only see a cloud of mist, as if in a fairyland.

After drinking the hot tea, the sixth princess took Bai Yingluo for a walk in the plum grove, and looked at the pavilion which they called the fairyland plum pavilion, and laughed and joked.

The carefree laughter of the girls rippling in the plum grove, scattered to the distance along the fluttering snowflakes, making the world seem infinitely vast.

Tired of playing, the sixth princess stopped, looked at the gray sky and said to herself: "I don't know, when will the next time I laugh like this."

When you get married, you have to take on your own part of the responsibility, not to mention the sixth princess who is responsible for the friendship between the two countries.

One sentence was full of sentimentality, and for a while, Bai Yingluo didn't know how to continue.

Seeing Bai Yingluo's sad face when she turned her head, the sixth princess patted her face with a smile and said, "You, you are too shallow-minded, and everything is shown on your face, don't worry, I will be fine, we all be happy."

Hearing this, Bai Yingluo nodded affirmatively like a chick pecking rice.

Speaking of being too shallow, the sixth princess immediately became worried again, "Yingluo, given your current situation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a good marriage in the future. Have you ever planned for yourself?"

Only when she is sincere will she not shy away from talking about these embarrassing topics that make people blush. Bai Yingluo knows that the sixth princess is not making fun of her, but is leaving soon, so she is really worried about her.

The light of joy just now faded away bit by bit, Bai Yingluo shook her head, "Let's take a step and see, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"

Biting her lips lightly, the sixth princess pondered for a long time before she came up with an idea and said, "Yingluo, we are good sisters of Jinlan, how can I see you being wronged in the future? Now that I am getting married soon, the queen mother is always obedient to me. Baishun, after I go to ask my mother, ask her to accept you as a adopted daughter, or, when you have someone you like in the future, let my mother decree to give you a marriage, okay?"

Six months ago, the sixth princess pointed to Bai Yingluo's nose and said she didn't like her, but now, she was going to marry Da'an far away, but she was still worried about her future, Bai Yingluo's nose was sore, and she almost shed tears.

Sniffing, Bai Yingluo looked up at the sixth princess who was looking at her earnestly and asked, "Princess, do you believe that people have past and present lives?"
