Rebirth of Splendid Heaven

Chapter 55
The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace. An Mujin curiously wanted to open the curtain to take a look. An Muxue held her back and said, "Sister, don't worry, we can go in after a while. Remember what my sister said, after entering the palace, you must Be careful everywhere, don't speak if you can't speak."

"Well, I've remembered it all." An Mujin sat upright again, not knowing what was going on outside at all, only hearing the sound of the wheels of the carriage turning from time to time.

Finally arrived at the carriage of the Marquis of Anping, an eunuch raised the curtain, looked inside, and asked, "But the eldest lady and the second lady of the Marquis of Anping?"

"Exactly." An Muxue said very briefly, and without changing her sitting posture, she took out a silver lump and handed it over.

The eunuch didn't smile either, he just stuffed the silver bump into his sleeve, then put down the curtain, and said something.

Then the carriage started to leave, and after walking for a while, An Muxue let out a long sigh of relief.An Mujin, on the other hand, looked at An Muxue very curiously, and asked, "Why did you give him money?"

"This is a rule in the palace, and if you don't give it, someone will underestimate our Anpinghou Mansion. Sister, you also have silver in your wallet. Remember that when you see others tipping you, you can't lag behind, you know?" ?" An Muxue explained.

An Mujin twisted her body, helped something on her head, and smiled awkwardly.There are so many rules in this palace, and seeing that An Muxue just gave that eunuch a lot of money, if it were her, she would really be reluctant to part with it.

This is the difference between a daughter-in-law and a daughter-in-law. A daughter-in-law sees everything that is good, so naturally she doesn't care about the few cents of money.But An Mujin was different. She used to struggle endlessly for a few cents of money, embroidering on the white cloth every day.

Thinking of the past to earn money to buy medicine, An Mujin felt sad and warm at the same time.Because although life is a little bit hard, everyone works together, seeing that embroidery can really be exchanged for money, that is also a sense of accomplishment.

An Mujin thought for a while, and the carriage arrived at a place. An Muxue told her that it was time to change to a sedan chair.

There are rules for changing the sedan chair. An Muxue not only handed over the money, but also said a few nice words, and started talking and laughing with the maid.

An Mujin only thought that he was dumb and didn't understand anything, so he followed An Muxue silently.But she was held back by a court lady, and said with a smile: "Second Miss, your sedan chair is at the back."

It was only then that An Mujin knew that she was going to be separated from An Muxue. It was the first time she was in such a strange place, and there was still some panic, An Mujin didn't want to be separated from An Muxue.And she also had a bad premonition that once she and An Muxue separated, something else would happen.

"Second Miss, please follow me." The little maid said to An Mujin again, An Mujin saw that An Muxue had already gotten into the sedan chair, and asked, "Can't I sit with my sister?"

"It seems that what you said is true. The eldest lady and the second lady of Anping Hou's Mansion really have a deep relationship. Please rest assured, second lady, you can be with the eldest lady when you arrive at the place." The little maid explained.

An Mujin didn't know what to say, but felt that the rules in the palace were strange, it was fine not to let people take maids with them, even sitting in sedan chairs had to be controlled.

Sitting in the sedan chair, An Mujin wanted to look outside to see if he had followed An Muxue's sedan chair.But she was worried that it would be impolite to do so, so she just sat there without moving.

After walking for a long time, An Mujin's whole body became numb from sitting, and the sedan chair stopped.

After getting off the sedan chair, An Mujin saw many young girls standing in front of a very gorgeous palace, the ages were only eleven, two or three years old.

An Mujin has been in the Hou Mansion all year round, and has never attended any banquets with the eldest lady, so naturally he doesn't know much about these people.She looked around in the crowd, but didn't see An Muxue, which made her a little panicked.

"You are the second lady of the Anping Hou Mansion?" Suddenly a girl dressed in refined clothes came over. She had a special fragrance on her body, which smelled sweet and made people feel very comfortable.

An Mujin looked at the girl carefully, and said with a smile, "Yes. I don't know who you are?"

"Oh, I'm Zhang Xiaohui. I seem to be the same age as your sister, you can just call me sister Xiaohui." Zhang Xiaohui looked at An Mujin proudly.

An Mujin immediately blessed her body and said, "Sister Xiaohui."

"Your outfit today is very special and pretty. I believe the Queen Mother and Queen will like it after seeing it." Zhang Xiaohui smiled while pinching the handkerchief.

An Mujin giggled, she also knew that her dress was quite special.The girls who came were all plainly dressed, but she was the only one who wore pink makeup, which is not surprising at all.

But she should not be able to hear Zhang Xiaohui's ridicule, and thinks that Zhang Xiaohui is praising her.

Zhang Xiaohui saw that An Mujin couldn't even understand good and bad words, and felt that the second lady of the Anping Hou Mansion was easy to bully, so she took her by the hand and said, "The queen mother and queen are having dinner, why don't you let me take you to meet him?" Personally."

An Mujin nodded obediently, and followed Zhang Xiaohui into the crowd.

The girls were doing their own things, or they didn't speak in twos and threes, or stood still, when they suddenly saw Zhang Xiaohui bringing An Mujin over.Seeing An Mujin's makeup is really shocking, didn't it mean that the queen mother always likes simplicity, how dare she enter the palace dressed like this.

"Xiaohui, who is this lady? She is well dressed... special." A woman in pink walked over with lotus steps and asked curiously.

Zhang Xiaohui smiled and said: "This is the second lady of Anping Houfu, An Mujin."

"Oh, it's that little mute!" Someone shouted, and everyone's eyes fell on An Mujin.

An Mujin was not embarrassed either, and looked up at everyone with a smile.

"She's not a little mute, she can talk." Zhang Xiaohui seemed a little anxious when she heard someone say bad things about An Mujin, and hurriedly argued.

"It's not a little mute, why doesn't she speak?" Someone asked again.

"Sister, say something to prove that you are not dumb." Zhang Xiaohui looked at An Mujin and said.

An Mujin was about to speak, when suddenly two court ladies rushed out and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please come with us."

After everyone heard this, they stopped asking whether An Mujin was dumb or not. They each tidied up their appearances, and then walked in with style.Even Zhang Xiaohui, she left An Mujin alone at the moment.

An Mujin had no choice but to follow behind the crowd, but she was still a little worried about where An Muxue had gone.

Apart from these young ladies, there are only two palace maids in front of me, and I can't find anyone to ask questions.

When the maid urged An Mujin to go faster, An Mujin took the opportunity to hand over the silver and asked, "Excuse me, is the eldest lady of Anping Hou Mansion here?"

The maid took the silver and handed it back to An Mujin, sneering, "What do you think this is?"

An Mujin was taken aback, pinching the money, not understanding what the palace lady meant by that.

Seeing An Mujin's dumbfounded look, the maid asked coldly, "Do you want everyone to wait for you?"

An Mujin came back to her senses and found that everyone had gone far away. She quickly lifted her skirt and quickly followed.

The palace maid looked at An Mujin's way of trotting, and she was very disdainful, wondering if this person is really the second lady of the Anping Hou Mansion?It is simply too different from the young lady. I really don't know why the young lady is still so kind to this younger sister.

When they arrived at the main hall, An Mujin followed the crowd to pay respects to the Queen Mother and Queen.She was kneeling at the back and was originally the least prominent, but because of her hairstyle and her kneeling posture was not standard, the queen mother and queen could still see her at a glance.

"The one kneeling at the back raises his head, and let Aijia see." An old lady's voice sounded in front of her. An Mujin guessed that this person should be the old lady, but she didn't know that the old lady's words were aimed at her. Said.

The queen mother waited for a while but did not see An Mujin raised her head, she couldn't help frowning, at this time the maid next to her walked over and said in a voice that everyone could hear: "Second Miss of Anping Hou Mansion, the queen mother asked you to raise your head .”

An Mujin bit her lip, said a word of silence in her heart, and lifted that heavily painted face.

When An Mujin looked up, both the queen mother and the empress were taken aback, the makeup was so gorgeous.Not to mention the surprise of the queen mother and queen, even An Mujin was quite surprised. The clothes worn by the queen mother and queen were bright and dazzling, and An Muxue stood respectfully beside the dazzling eyes.

An Mujin rubbed her eyes to make sure that she was not mistaken, that person was An Muxue.

She didn't know how to use words to describe her mood at the moment, she just felt depressed.She really couldn't figure it out, An Muxue got into trouble in the palace last time, yet she was still favored by the queen mother and empress.It can be seen that An Muxue's ability is not small, she didn't know what she said to make the two of them happy.

"Second Miss of the Marquis of Anping?" After a long time, the Empress Dowager sighed faintly, then turned to An Muxue and said, "Xue'er, is that person really your sister?"

An Muxue immediately stepped forward, Fushen respectfully said: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, this person is the younger sister of the minister."

"Then why are there such differences between you? Doesn't she know that the Ai family dislikes people who dress up too much?" Although the queen mother said this to An Muxue, the blame was directed at An Mujin.

An Muxue blessed her body again, and said very aggrieved: "I have also persuaded her, but my younger sister likes to dress up like this very much. As an older sister, I can't bear to see her sad, so I asked the maids to dress her up a little lightly." Some."

"It's still light?" The queen mother exclaimed, obviously unable to believe what makeup that was thicker than this looked like.

"I'm sorry, Queen Mother. All this is the responsibility of my daughter. It's my daughter who indulged my sister too much. It's my daughter's fault for making the queen mother uncomfortable. Kiss the queen mother and punish my daughter." An Muxue took the responsibility in time. , looking like a good sister, knelt down in front of the queen mother to receive the punishment.

"Xue'er, you are such a good sister. This matter has nothing to do with you. The Ai family will have their own sentence." The queen mother looked at An Muxue lovingly, and stretched out her hand to pull her up.

An Mujin knelt down calmly, raised her face, not daring to lower her head at all.But I was sneering in my heart, An Muxue, you acted so well, if I could applaud, I would definitely applaud you.

But you are also helping me. I have entered this palace once and I don’t want to enter it a second time. It’s better that the queen mother and empress hate me, then I don’t have to come to this place again in the future.

"The Ai family doesn't want to see her, let her go somewhere else." For the queen mother to say such words, one can imagine how much the queen mother hates An Mujin.
