20【20】

Lin Feilu left Cuizhuju and did not return to Mingyue Palace immediately.

Overnight, the snow had accumulated, and the glazed red tiles were covered in silver, which looked very beautiful. There were palace people sweeping the snow on both sides of the road, which was much more lively than before.

When they were about to arrive at Yaohua Palace, Lin Feilu sent Qingyan back first, "I'll go and talk to the elder sister of the emperor. It's cold outside, so you can go back to the palace first."

Qingyan now knew that the little princess and the eldest princess had a good relationship, so she no longer worried, so she responded and left. Lin Feilu held the cloak, held the hand stove in her little hands, and walked over with brisk steps.

The palace servant guarding the door saw her and looked at her. After saluting, Lin Feilu asked, "Can the elder sister be there?"

The palace servant said, "Please wait for a while, I will go and report it now."

Lin Feilu nodded, and the palace maid came out shortly after a while, lowered her head and said, "Fifth Princess, Empress Hui is waiting for you inside."

This Yaohua Palace is really an unfriendly place.

Lin Feilu sighed in her heart, looked obedient and walked in with a small step.

As soon as I walked through the front hall and entered the yard, I saw Concubine Hui sitting under the eaves in front of the door, with a carbon stove for heating at her feet, holding a leather hand cage in her hand, leaning lazily on the chair, looking at her with a cold face.

There were two palace maids standing beside them. Looking at the posture, it seemed like three courts were being tried.

Lin Feilu Qian saluted her: "Greetings to Concubine Hui."

Concubine Hui responded lightly and seriously, but her seat did not change, and asked indifferently: "Are you looking for the eldest princess?"

Lin Feilu lowered her head, and the hood on the cloak was slightly raised, as if she had hidden her entire body in the cloak, looking small and thin, "Yes."

Hui Fei asked again: "What are you looking for the eldest princess to do?"

Lin Feilu replied: "Xiao Wu made some things and wanted to give them to the elder sister of the emperor."

Concubine Hui snorted and held her head up and said, "You are interested." She glanced at her from a high point and said in a low voice: "The eldest princess is taking a nap. Since you are so interested, just wait for her to wake up here and then hand it over to her with your own hands."

The snow was still falling, and it was going to be getting heavier and heavier. After talking for a while, a layer of snow had fallen from Lin Feilu. Hearing that she was so embarrassed, the small figure under the cloak seemed to be shaking slightly, but in the end she just answered crisply: "Yes."

Concubine Hui looked at her with her lips curled for a while, as if she felt bored, and told the palace maid: "Go back to the house, I'm tired."

As soon as she left, Lin Feilu was the only one left in the yard.

There was only the sound of snow falling around. Lin Feilu stood with her head down, holding her hand stove in her cuff, and yawned in boredom.

This Concubine Hui is not easy to deal with.

The main reason is that she had too deep a grudge with Concubine Xian, and she first defected to Concubine Xian. In her eyes, she was already from Concubine Xian's faction. She often ran around the palace and was small. No one could notice it when she squatted into the grass. This eavesdropped on a lot of gossips around the corner.

I heard that the reason why Concubine Hui and Concubine Xian were so powerful was because Concubine Hui had her first child when she was in the East Palace, but she finally had a miscarriage due to Concubine Xian. She was originally the first child of Emperor Lin, and maybe she was still a son.

Concubine Hui had the opportunity to give birth to the eldest son of the emperor, but she was ruined by Concubine Xian. It was not until Emperor Lin ascended the throne that many years later she gave birth to the eldest princess.

If she was a prince and the eldest son, she might be the one who sat in the throne of the imperial concubine now.

With such a deep hatred, I guess I will never end in my life.

Lin Feilu thought about it and felt that it was a bit difficult to guide Concubine Hui, unless she had a feud with Concubine Xian. But these two were both concubine positions and were not much different in various aspects. It was almost the same as if they were not replaced. Let's forget it.

Having a eldest princess is enough.

However, Concubine Hui also looks like she has a low IQ. She knows that her daughter is having a good relationship with her and still makes things difficult for her. Isn’t this actively splitting her relationship with her daughter?

Although Lin Nianzhi respects her and loves her, he will eventually feel a little complaining and will also be more pity for himself.

If she was Concubine Hui, she would spoil herself hard, ignore the eldest princess, let the eldest princess watch his mother's care transfer to another person, and would often compare the two of them, step on one hand and hold it one after another, and ensure that within three days, the eldest princess would break up with each other and would never have any contact.

Alas, the concubines in the harem are still too young.

Lin Feilu was wandering around the sky in a random way, but she didn't feel it was difficult to get away. These ancient people didn't take two steps and had to breathe when they walked two steps. Their physical fitness was really poor. For them, they were punished for standing in the snow.

But Lin Feilu has never stopped exercising since she came. Recently, she has been pulling Xiao Lan to practice yoga. The little princess's weak foundation has been greatly enhanced by her. Apart from being a little cold, there is nothing else.

But it's not the case in the eyes of others.

The palace maid who had been serving Lin Nianzhi since childhood was the one who sent snow fox fur to the brocade shop to make clothes for Lin Feilu last time. She called the one who hugged the pomelo. She looked at the fifth princess who almost turned into a little snowman in the corridor, and was almost anxious.

She knew that the master had a good relationship with the fifth princess, and when the master got up and saw this scene, he might feel uncomfortable and angry.

She kept watching the movements in the main room and saw the grand palace maid next to Huifei cover the door and came out. She guessed that Huifei should have fallen asleep. She gritted her teeth and finally returned to Lin Nianzhi's room, lifted the gauze curtain and woke her up.

Lin Nianzhi was angry when he got up, and was woken up halfway. He wanted to get angry when he opened his eyes. Huyou quickly knelt down and lowered his voice: "Princess, the fifth princess is here to find you half an hour. Concubine Hui asked her to wait in the yard. She has been standing for a long time. It is snowing outside, and the fifth princess is still standing..."

Lin Nianzhi was completely asleep and turned over and sat up and asked her to take her clothes: "Why didn't you call me earlier!"

Baoyou whispered: "Empress Hui just took a break..."

Lin Nianzhi knew why her mother hated Xiaowu, but she felt that this matter had something to do with Xiaowu. Xiaowu got the care of Concubine Xian because she had a good time with Lin Jingyuan. Isn’t it unreasonable for her mother to take off her anger?

If I look at it this way, wouldn’t Concubine Xian take her anger at Xiaowu because she is having a good relationship with her?

Xiaowu is not a human being, it’s so pitiful!

While putting on her clothes, she ordered her to carry You: "Go and call Xiaowu in! Say I'm awake!"

I hurried to carry the grapefruit.

Lin Feilu was quickly brought in.

She had shaken the snow on her body outside, but her cloak was furry and was still covered with broken snow. As soon as she entered the house, the temperature became warmer, and instantly melted into water droplets, condensed on her body, dropping downwards.

When Lin Nianzhi saw that Xiao Wu's lips were frozen purple, he quickly reached out to pull her to the stove to burn the fire. The hand stove in her cuffs also became cold. Lin Nianzhi was angry and distressed, so he asked to carry the grapefruit to change the hand stove to the new carbon. Lin Feilu said: "Mother's mother asked you to stand and stand, don't you know how to leave? You will come again next time when I sleep, or ask the palace maids around you to send a message. It's so cold, I'm not afraid of being stupid!"

Lin Feilu pursed her lips and smiled at her foolishly.

Another palace maid poured hot tea over. She held the cup and drank it all in one breath. Lin Nianzhi kept saying, "Drink slowly! And! Slowly, don't choke!"

After drinking several cups of hot tea and roasting the fire, his body gradually warmed up. Lin Feilu took out a small light pink box from his arms and obediently handed it to her: "Sister Huang, this is for you."

Lin Nianzhi took it curiously: "What? Rouge?" She twisted it and found that it was a pale white paste, fragrant and soft. She took it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it, "It smells so good."

Lin Feilu said: "This is hand cream, applying it on your hands can protect your hands." She lowered her eyes and added a little embarrassedly: "I made it myself."

Lin Nianzhi had already dug a piece of it and patted it on the back of his hands. After applying it, his hands became much smoother and tender.

No girl doesn't like something fragrant and soft.

She looked at the hand cream and then looked at Xiaowu. She felt very complicated for a moment. She paused and asked, "Are you here to give me this?"

Xiaowu pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes."

Lin Nianzhi was so moved. He pulled her over, patted the water droplets that were gathering on her, and pretended to be angry and said, "I'll just let you send it to you next time, so why don't you go there in person?"

Lin Feilu whispered: "Then I still want to see the elder sister of the emperor."

Lin Nianzhi's face turned red.

The two of them talked in the room for a while. Lin Nianzhi was worried that his mother would make things difficult for Xiao Wu when she woke up, so she asked her to take You back.

Sure enough, the first thing Hui did after waking up was to ask Lin Feilu about the situation. The palace maid told the truth. Hui thought that her daughter would wake up only at this point, so why did she wake up in advance today?

She washed up and went to her daughter's room, saw her sitting on the couch and playing with a rouge box, and asked, "What is that?"

When Lin Nianzhi saw her coming, she stuffed the box into her arms: "It's nothing."

Huifei: "????"

My daughter has never had a secret with her. This is a child she raised. The mother and daughter are in the same mind. Why are they still talking lies with their eyes open?!

Hui Fei said angrily: "Is that little bitch given you something?"

Lin Nianzhi frowned unhappily: "Mother, Xiao Wu is also a princess after all, and is the daughter of the father. If you say that, if someone hears her, it may be deemed."

Huifei smiled angry: "Are you blaming your mother for that little bitch?"

Lin Nianzhi looked at her seriously: "I am caring about my mother. Xiaowu is still a child. She has nothing to do with the right and wrong in the palace. I hope my mother will not make things difficult for her in the future."

Huifei was so angry that she didn't want to talk to her, so she turned around and left.

Lin Nianzhi sighed silently, feeling that he was in a difficult situation.

...

Since the sun set, the weather in the capital has never cleared up again. Heavy snow has covered the royal city and the end of the year is getting closer.

At the end of each year, the queen would hold an annual banquet in the harem, which is a summary of the year. Xiao Lan was not invited in previous years. After all, there were many concubines in the palace, and those unpopular concubines were like invisible people, and no one remembered them.

But this year is different from the past. With Empress Xian here, Xiao Lan was listed. The princes and princesses also had to attend the annual banquet, so Xiao Lan naturally wanted to bring Lin Feilu with her.

This should be considered the first time Lin Feilu attended a banquet in the palace after she was born, and it was also the first time she made her official debut. Of course, she could not be careless. Concubine Xian gave her a lot of new satin and new jewelry to Mingyue Palace, making Xiao Lan ready for life.

The palaces were busy preparing for the annual banquet, and only Jingpin's Zhaoyang Palace seemed a little depressed.

Because of the evil incident, there were few people coming to Zhaoyang Palace. Later, Lin Xi was punished and confined by the eldest prince. Everyone was even more reluctant to offend the eldest prince Ruan Concubine because of her, so they even took a detour.

The entire Zhaoyang Palace exudes a cold breath in the heavy snow.

It was dark early in winter, and in the evening, the darkness fell with the broken snow. The lights in Zhaoyang Palace flickered and whispering voices came from time to time. No one noticed that there was a figure standing with a sword on the quiet and cold eaves.

Until the night completely enveloped the palace, the figure was not slow, lighter than the snowflakes flying in the sky, and the sound did not drift down.

Cuizhu lives in her house, Tian Dong takes the lamp to burn hot water, and prepares to serve His Highness to wash.

When the shadow floated in from the courtyard wall, it passed by his head, and Tiandong didn't notice it at all. It was not until the shadow entered the house and was still reading a book in the house that Song Jinglan felt something and looked up.

When he saw it, a smile appeared sincerely on his face: "Uncle Ji, you are back."

The man standing with a sword in his arms was expressionless and coldly threw out a sentence: "Zhaoyang Palace."

Song Jinglan smiled and said, "As soon as Uncle Ji came back, he helped me listen to the corner of the wall?"

The man's cold expression finally collapsed a little, and a hint of awkward expression overflowed.
