Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 22 Planning (2)
Aunt Zhang was slightly taken aback, she calmed down and thought about it carefully.In the past, Ling Xihan was extremely stupid. Her mother was Princess Ping and the queen's righteous sister, so many women in the palace hated her to the bone.Along with it, her daughter is naturally not welcome.Anyway, the prince didn't like her in the past.These women in the mansion are also used to wantonly bullying her.Now that she is so beautiful, I don't know how many women in this palace wish to swallow her alive.

There is no need for her to do anything, those women will naturally move.Thinking about it this way, the depression she had condensed for a day also dissipated a lot.

Seeing that the hostility between her brows dissipated, Ling Xiyun smiled slightly, made tea again and placed it in front of her.

"Mother, don't rush everything."

"En." Aunt Zhang turned her head and looked at her daughter with satisfaction.Turning her eyes, she said: "Yun'er, the queen's birthday is next month, you must behave well." She is just an aunt, and she will not be able to decide her own daughter's marriage in the future.Although she is a young lady in the palace, she is a concubine.If you want to marry a good family, you have to be a concubine like her.If you want to be the main wife, you will inevitably marry ordinary.

The Qionghua Banquet is a banquet created by the empress, and all the ladies and young talents from Beijing and China are present.The children of the official family are brought into the palace by the mistress of the family, and the officials are not allowed to participate in this kind of banquet.Obviously, it is to let these official children talk and understand each other freely.To put it bluntly, it was a blind date banquet, but with less restraint.

Daqing is open to the people, men and women can taste tea and play chess with each other, talk about ancient and modern classics, poetry, books, etiquette and music...

Therefore, there are quite a few in-laws formed at the Qionghua Banquet every year, and most of them are chosen by themselves, so those couples are almost harmonious after marriage.

From this point of view, the queen is the great benefactor of many women in the boudoir.

It's just that this year's Qionghua Banquet is different from the past. This year it is held together with the queen's birthday, and officials from all over the country will come to congratulate her.Talented scholars and beauties from all over the country will also enter the palace, so it is inevitable to perform some singing and dancing talents.

If Yun'er can stand out at this banquet, then her fame will surely spread far and wide.At that time, I am not afraid that no one will come to propose marriage.

"Well, my daughter knows." The corners of Ling Xiyun's mouth curled up slightly, her beautiful face was silent, and the dark luster in her eyes flickered inexplicably.

Wang Momo smiled and said: "Ma'am, don't worry, our young lady is so beautiful and smart, she will definitely shine at the palace birthday banquet."

There was a smile on Ling Xiyun's face, but there were dark clouds in his eyes, and the silk handkerchief in his hand was slightly tightened.

The Qionghua Banquet was founded by the queen nine years ago. It is held every three years and has been experienced twice.However, it was the first time that it was held together with the queen's birthday like this year.One can imagine the prosperity of this banquet.

Originally, she, a concubine, would never have the opportunity to participate in such a typical banquet, but the current empress is open-minded and never cares about the distinction between concubine and concubine.Therefore, all official women, regardless of their concubines, can participate in the queen's birthday.

This time, the huge lineup must be unprecedented.

There are many outstanding official women in Kyoto, and there are not a few of them who are both talented and beautiful.There are also three unique things in Beijing!These women are all people with outstanding talents and appearance.Therefore, it is not easy to stand out among these people.

Frowning slightly, Ling Xiyun felt a little restless.

She has not forgotten that her second sister is not only one of the three best, but also the first of the three.And it's a concubine again, even if she tried her best, the status of a concubine is suppressed here, how can she have a bright future?

Thinking of this made her feel even colder.

Mrs. Zhang was clearly aware of the change in her daughter's mood, and turned her head in surprise, seeing her daughter's gloomy and indifferent face, her heart thumped.

"Yun'er, what's wrong?"

Ling Xiyun was feeling irritable, seeing her mother looking over with concern, no matter how unbalanced her heart was, she couldn't say anything at this time.

"It's okay, mother, I'm going back." She said sullenly, and then walked out absent-mindedly.

Mrs. Zhang frowned, "Nurse Wang, what happened to Yun'er just now?"

Wang Momo is the personal servant girl brought by Zhang Shi. She has watched Ling Xiyun grow up since she was a child, and she can also play a little bit on her thoughts.

Immediately, she rolled her eyes and said solemnly: "Madam, Miss Fifth feels wronged."

"Wronged?" Mrs. Zhang couldn't understand why Yun'er was wronged.

Wang Momo sighed, "Ma'am, this servant said something that shouldn't be said. Miss Wu is smart and excellent, but in this palace, is there anyone who is not beautiful and talented? What's more, the whole capital participated in Qiong Miss Huayan is not limited to the Zhongyi Prince's family." There is one more thing she dare not say, that is Miss Fifth is a concubine.Concubine, even if she is a young lady in the palace, she still cannot change her status as a concubine.Among the wealthy and noble families, the status of a concubine is only a little higher than that of a maid, and has no status at all.Miss Wu has always been proud and arrogant since she was a child. Faced with so many powerful enemies, she was naturally depressed.

After what Wang Momo said, Mrs. Zhang also felt that it was reasonable, and her face became more gloomy at the moment.But thinking about it, even if Yun'er is not the most outstanding, Yun'er can still be considered top-notch based on her talent and appearance.Besides, with a hat as big as the Prince of Zhongyi's mansion, it is natural not to be underestimated.

Thinking of this, her expression softened slightly.

Wang Momo looked at her expression and sighed inwardly.Madam didn't understand Miss Wu's thoughts, but she could see it.Fifth Young Miss was very angry, and definitely looked down on ordinary rich men, probably because she was thinking about the crown prince or concubine or something.

but……

A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she suddenly made up her mind.

"Ma'am, hasn't the princess been grounded? It would be impolite for the Zhongyi Palace to not have the mistress lead the young ladies and gentlemen into the palace. So..."

There was a flash in Zhang's eyes, a light appeared in his eyes, and then slowly dimmed.

"So what? No matter what, the lord will not take me into the palace." She hated her teeth, thinking that she was also the younger sister of the Minister of Rites.If she hadn't loved King Zhongyi back then, she would not have been willing to enter the mansion to be a concubine.

Her husband, wives and concubines are in groups, she recognizes them!But what she hated the most was that she couldn't stand side by side with him.

princess?That bitch, if she hadn't used despicable means to get into the prince's bed back then, and then relied on the piece of meat in her stomach.With her humble status, she doesn't even have the qualifications to be a prince's concubine, so return to the princess!She is so beautiful.

Today, the queen ordered her feet to be restrained, and she was really happy in her heart.However, even if that woman is grounded, she is only an aunt and is not qualified to accompany the prince into the palace.

"Ma'am." Wang Nao came closer and whispered: "Madam, have you forgotten who is our lord's favorite lady?"
