The King's Stunning Concubine

Chapter 8
"Well, sit down!" The eldest lady nodded, with a gentle face, she looked about 40 years old, well maintained, with a graceful and luxurious demeanor, one could tell that she came from a famous family.And Lin Qingqing next to her is a well-known beauty and talented woman in the capital, her appearance is naturally delicate and beautiful, and her personality is even more gentle and tranquil. Of course, these are all in the eyes of outsiders.

And Lin Qianqian, the concubine daughter of the prime minister's mansion, not only inherited her mother's beauty, but also suddenly became extremely smart half a year ago.

Lin Qianqian's biological mother had passed away for many years. Lin Qianqian was no longer there when she crossed over, but she knew from the servants that her biological mother, Shen Tianjiao, used to be the number one beauty in Qingluan Kingdom, but it was a pity that she was a prostitute. This meant that she could only be a concubine for others.

On the other hand, Lin Qianqian turned out to be more beautiful than her mother Shen Tianjiao, but her mind was always stupid, and she suddenly returned to normal after falling into the water half a year ago. From then on, everyone knew that the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion was more beautiful than Lin Qingqing. The title of the most beautiful woman in Qingluan country on Lin Qingqing also naturally fell on the second lady, but Lin Qingqing never admitted all of this.

Even if she didn't admit it, Lin Qianqian's existence made Lin Qingqing feel like she was sitting on pins and needles, and she wanted to get rid of this thorn in her side all day long to prevent future troubles.

"I heard that you slept for a day and a night, are you sick?" Lin Qingqing's voice was extremely pleasant, the best voice Lin Qianqian had ever heard, even the delicate voices of the customer service staff she had heard in modern times could not be compared. In contrast, it was soft yet charming, gentle yet noble, the kind of voice that would make anyone's bones tingle when they heard it.

"Let my sister worry about it. I just have a bit of a cold, and I'm all better now." Lin Qianqian smiled lightly, showing everyone's ladylike demeanor in her gestures.

"It's good that you're fine. Your sister has been organizing the Ninth Prince's birthday party for the past few days. Now that you're healthy, go and help." The eldest lady picked up the celadon tea bowl and gently blew the tea foam on it.

"Yes, I happen to be free too." Lin Qianqian smiled, but thought of a lot in her mind. Apart from being the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, her sister Lin Qingqing also opened a guest house, which is a guild hall dedicated to organizing celebrations for powerful families. It is similar to the public relations company in modern time and space, so Lin Qingqing is a beautiful, intelligent, talented and capable woman in the circle of dignitaries in the capital, and she is also the best wife candidate in the eyes of the crown princes.

Since Lin Qingqing was 16 years old and Jiji, the people who came to the house early had already stepped through the threshold, but Lin Qingqing's heart was extremely high, and she already had in her heart the best candidate for a husband-in-law, that is, the best candidate for the crown prince— Leng Wang Nangong Xuanye, in Lin Qingqing's heart, only Nangong Xuanye is worthy of her beauty.

That's why Lin Qingqing opened the guest house, in order to be able to walk around the circle of the rich and powerful in the capital, and to meet Nangong Xuanye often, so as to leave a good impression on him.

Of course, no one except the eldest lady knew about Lin Qingqing's little things.

However, Lin Qianqian, who had just grown up, had no one to propose marriage. Although everyone knew her beauty, their understanding of her was still the same as before. They all thought that Lin Qianqian was just a beautiful embroidered pillow. It happened to suit Lin Qianqian's wishes, she didn't want to marry some stupid rich man at a young age, and live a hard life of serving her husband.

"Then go back and change your clothes first, and accompany me to the Nine Princes' Mansion to see the environment later." Lin Qingqing said gently, no one could bear to refuse her gentle appearance.

"There's no need to change clothes, I can do it like this!" Lin Qianqian said with a smile, she has always been so unkempt, and she is out of tune with those famous ladies who change several sets of clothes a day.

Lin Qingqing looked down at Lin Qianqian's clothes. The pale pink long skirt without any embroidery was so plain that it couldn't be more so. When she went out like this, people thought that the chancellor's mansion had been closed, but Lin Qingqing just hated Lin Qianqian's dress. She didn't care, as if she was the only one who was fresh and refined.

"Okay, since you don't want to change clothes, let's go!" Lin Qingqing knew that Lin Qianqian was not an easy character to deal with at this time, so she usually would not have a direct dispute with her, and the two sisters walked side by side slowly. He walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion slowly, boarded two brocade sedan chairs one after the other, and walked towards the Nine Princes' Mansion on the other side of the long street.

Lin Qingqing wore a long dress made of Sichuan brocade today, with gold silk patterns embroidered by embroiderers one by one. This dress not only showed her noble status, but even the princess in the palace would feel ashamed when she saw it.Lin Qingqing is a celebrity in the capital, and her every move attracts attention, and she also enjoys this kind of attention-grabbing life very much, so she is very cautious in every move she makes.

After a while, the two sedan chairs arrived at the door of the Nine Princes' Mansion. Lin Qingqing was already familiar with the Nine Princes' Mansion, because she often dealt with these dignitaries, so naturally she often went in and out of various palaces.

For Lin Qianqian, the Ninth Prince's Mansion is even more familiar to her than the Prime Minister's Mansion. She often comes to the Ninth Prince's Mansion at night, and the Ninth Prince is a "rich man" who can't manage money, so most of Lin Qingqing's pocket money is From Nine Princes Mansion.

Entering the Nine Princes' Mansion during the day really made Lin Qianqian a little excited. She still followed Lin Qingqing calmly and walked through the halls and alleys into the main hall of the Nine Princes' Mansion.

Sitting on top of it is the legendary Ninth Prince who is as gentle as jade. He is the most temperamental among the several princes of Qingluan Kingdom. He is about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he looks childish and not much older than Lin Qianqian. , but intentionally pretended to be an adult and sat there drinking tea.

Seeing that there were still a few not-so-hard stubbles around the mouth of the Ninth Prince, Lin Qianqian knew that the Ninth Prince was in the stage of growth and development, but in Lin Qianqian's eyes, he was just a child, who made Lin Qianqian's body have What a mature soul!
"Qingqing and her younger sister met the Ninth Prince!" Lin Qingqing stepped forward and greeted the Ninth Prince in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.

"Hello, I'm Lin Qianqian." Lin Qianqian also immediately nodded towards the Ninth Prince. In fact, the Ninth Prince is the emperor's own son and a strong candidate for the crown prince. When I see the Ninth Prince, I should behave like a king and a minister, but Lin Qianqian looked at the childish face of the Ninth Prince, and always regarded him as a child.

"Hello, I heard that the two daughters of the prime minister are stunning in the world. I saw them today and they are extraordinary. I feel honored to be able to see the faces of the two sisters at a glance. Please sit down quickly!" Okay, I immediately said with a smile, without any airs of a prince.

"Don't dare to be it!" Lin Qingqing still had an expression of neither joy nor sadness, maintaining the attitude that everyone should have as a lady, and sat on the grand teacher's chair with gentle steps, with a gentle and noble expression on her face.

I have to say that Lin Qingqing is really a rare beauty, and her behavior is also very noble. If she hadn't been too thoughtful, Lin Qianqian would really like her very much.

"Then I won't be polite!" Lin Qianqian also smiled and sat aside. For some reason, she felt like old friends at first sight with this Ninth Prince, as if she was a good friend who had known him for many years.

"My sister and I came here today to see the environment and facilities of the Ninth Prince's Mansion first, so that everything can be organized on the day of the prince's birthday banquet." Lin Qingqing went straight to the point, and Lin Qianqian really liked this kind of personality, if it wasn't for her Lin Qianqian really wanted to become good sisters with her for the things she did to herself before.

"Later, I will ask the housekeeper to tell Miss Qingqing everything in the mansion, so that Miss Qingqing can make preparations in advance." Ninth Prince's words are extremely gentle, and he is really worthy of his nickname of gentle prince. He just said After a few words, someone outside the door announced, "Prince Yu is here!"

Upon hearing such a rumor, Lin Qianqian was the one who reacted the most among the three people in the room. She almost fell off the chair, what a pity that she met that prostitute in the Ninth Prince's Mansion!

Nangong Xuanye was wearing a purple robe and a seven-star gold crown on his head. His face was expressionless, but there was a deep chill in those eyes that made people dare not look directly at him. As soon as he entered the door, even Nangong Xuanshuang seemed to lower himself unconsciously. head.

"Sixth brother, why did you come here?" Nangong Xuanshuang immediately asked nervously. He was both afraid and happy about himself as the sixth brother. The fear was that the sixth brother had been strict with him since he was a child. , in this royal family, Nangong Xuanye is the elder brother who takes care of him the most.

Nangong Xuanye's eyes widened, revealing an extremely charming faint smile, "It's already March, and I'm here to verify the result of the agreement you and I made."

Nangong Xuanye's inadvertent smile suddenly made Lin Qianqian's heart tighten. Although she didn't like this cold and arrogant guy from the bottom of her heart, she had to admit that Nangong Xuanye's smile was so charming that it could make the world feel ashamed. woman screaming.

Lin Qianqian quickly turned her eyes away, and then calmed down. She inadvertently glanced at her sister Lin Qingqing who was sitting next to her, who had been pretending to be reserved, and found that her eyes were also emitting a hot light. The direction he looked at was the direction of Prince Yu Nangong Xuanye.

It turned out that Lin Qingqing's crush was him!Lin Qianqian felt a tinge of affirmation in her heart.

When Nangong Xuanshuang heard Prince Yu's words, his brows twitched: "Sixth brother, this."

"Think about it carefully." Nangong Xuanye walked straight to the seat next to Nangong Xuanshuang and sat down. It seemed that he often came to the Nine Princes' Mansion to "teach" on weekdays.

Looking at the figure of Nangong Xuanye, Lin Qianqian felt very uneasy. Just now, Nangong Xuanye looked around at the people in the lobby and met her own gaze. Lin Qianqian saw a wave in Nangong Xuanye's eyes.
