Everyone followed the daughter-in-law as they walked inside.
Ye Qinglan quietly approached Gu Xiyu and held her hand. As expected, Gu Xiyu's hand felt a little cool.
The wide sleeves covered the hands that she and Gu Xiyu were holding tightly. To outsiders, the two girls only felt that the two girls were very intimate.
Ye Qinglan deliberately slowed down and comforted Gu Xiyu in a low voice: "Take a deep breath, relax, don't be nervous. Believe in yourself, you can do it. You performed very well that time when you went to Zheng Guogong's mansion, and you will do it today too..."
Gentle whispers penetrated into Gu Xiyu's ears. Gu Xiyu's expression finally relaxed a little, but her hands were still greasy and she kept breaking out in cold sweat.
Gu Xinian came over at some point, looked at Gu Xiyu's pale and pretty face, and couldn't help but feel distressed, and whispered: "Yu'er, how are you? Can you hold on?"
Gu Xiyu took a deep breath, nodded vigorously, and squeezed Ye Qinglan's hand tightly with her right hand.
This is the palace, no better than other places. No matter how scared she is, she can't retreat, she can't lose the face of Duke Dingguo's palace, and she can't embarrass her aunt who is the queen. She must hold on!
Seeing Gu Xinian pretending to be strong even though he was clearly in pain, Gu Xinian couldn't help feeling. When he thought of the series of things that were about to happen, his smile suddenly faded.
Through Gu Xiyu, Ye Qinglan couldn't see clearly what Gu Xinian's expression was. But she also felt that Gu Xinian was in a bad mood at this moment.
Is it just because of Shen Chang'an who is about to appear? Or is it for something else, for example, Prince Zhao Wei and Shen Qiuyu who may appear at the same time?
Ye Qinglan thought secretly in her heart. When she thought that there would be another good show to watch next, she suddenly became energetic.
After passing the imperial garden and bypassing the long corridor, the queen's palace finally appeared in front of us. The majestic Fengyi Palace made those standing in front of the palace suddenly feel insignificant.
Ye Qinglan looked at the magnificent palace in front of her and couldn't help but marvel in her heart. She stopped along with everyone else.
After the palace maid went in to announce, someone soon came out to greet her.
A young man of about 22 or 23 years old stepped out with high spirits. Standing next to him was the Crown Princess Mo, whom he had a close relationship with. Standing on the other side was a beautiful and elegant young woman.
It’s Shen Qiuyu!
Ye Qinglan guessed the identity of this young man almost instantly.
Prince Zhao Yan!
Compared with the handsome third prince Zhao Zhang, the prince Zhao Lu is not inferior in any way. Although he is not as handsome as Gu Xinian, he can still be called a stalwart man. His eyes are bright and his body is full of nobility. If he walks
When I go out, I don’t know how many women will attract the attention.
Leaving aside the Mo family, Shen Qiuyu stood beside the prince, which was quite a match.
Ye Qinglan looked at the prince calmly, and couldn't help but glance at Gu Xinian again.
Gu Xinian had obviously been mentally prepared for this encounter. He narrowed his eyes slightly, then stepped forward with a smile as if nothing had happened, and greeted the prince politely: "I have met His Royal Highness."
The prince smiled kindly and said, "Xinian, when did you and I become so alienated? Just call me cousin as before."
before?
A sneer flashed through Gu Xinian's eyes, but there was a calm smile on his face: "I used to be ignorant. I would talk randomly and be inconsistent with etiquette. Fortunately, His Highness the Crown Prince is magnanimous and doesn't care about this with me."
The prince's smile paused, and his eyes were a little complicated. But in just a blink of an eye, he returned to normal, and smiled and exchanged a few words with Gu Xinian.
Shen Qiuyu glanced at Gu Xinian with her bright eyes, and saw that Gu Xinian turned a blind eye to her. She immediately lowered her eyes, not knowing what she felt in her heart.
Ye Qinglan watched the show with gusto. The encounter in front of her was so good that it was so bloody and vulgar.
Cousins who love each other as brothers turn against each other for a beautiful girl. They have deliberately avoided each other for several years, and now they finally meet at this moment.
Is the prince proud that he is the final winner? Or is he lamenting that his past friendship is gone, or is he secretly regretting that he should not have turned against his best brother because of a woman?
As for Shen Qiuyu, does she still have feelings for Gu Xinian?
And Gu Xinian, what did he do in his previous life? How would he feel when he saw the prince and Shen Qiuyu now?
Ye Qinglan secretly paid attention to the changes in everyone's expressions, and secretly speculated in her heart.
After a brief greeting, everyone entered the Fengyi Hall together.
Ye Qinglan lowered her head slightly, looking obedient and obedient. In fact, she had already glanced around the main hall with the corner of her eye. It was indeed the place where the queen lived, and the main hall alone was luxurious enough. From a visual inspection , even if there are dozens of people standing there, it won’t seem crowded.
Thinking about it, this is inevitable. As the queen in charge of the Sixth Palace, there are a lot of concubines who come to pay their respects every day. Naturally, the main hall of Fengyi Palace must be spacious without losing its majesty.
The woman sitting upright in the main hall, dressed in gorgeous palace attire, graceful and luxurious, with outstanding temperament, is naturally Queen Gu. Everyone in the Gu family has good looks, and this Queen Gu is no exception. Her eyebrows are slender, A pair of beautiful phoenix eyes. Although there are fine lines at the corners of the eyes, they do not look old at all. Instead, they show the charm of a mature woman.
A closer look shows that Gu Xiyu's appearance is somewhat similar to that of Queen Gu.
Queen Gu was happy and excited when she saw everyone in the Dingguo Palace. However, the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers cannot be wasted, so she could only sit on a chair and wait for everyone to bow to her first.
Ye Qinglan remembered the court etiquette taught by Grandma Rong, and bowed down with Gu Xiyu. Although Gu Xiyu was embarrassed, she finally made no mistakes. Only when she stood up, her body swayed slightly.
It didn't matter at this moment, Mrs. Zheng's nervous face turned pale. Gu Xinian also frowned slightly.
In front of everyone, Ye Qinglan couldn't help even if she wanted to, so she could only secretly pray that Gu Xiyu would not fall off the chain at this critical moment. Gu Xiyu probably heard the prayer in her heart, and after getting up, she stood aside quietly, and No mistakes were made.
Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
After performing the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, Queen Gu hurriedly ordered people to give her a seat. Then she chatted with Sun and others.
After a while, Queen Gu looked at Gu Xinian with a smile: "Xinian, I haven't seen you walking around the palace in the past two years."
Gu Xinian smiled lightly and said: "I am lazy by nature. I am afraid that walking around in the palace will cause trouble for the queen." This is simply lying with open eyes. He and the prince have been together since childhood, and they have been in and out of the palace countless times. When Have you ever worried about this? You clearly don’t want to see the prince, let alone Shen Qiuyu, so you deliberately distance yourself from him!
Queen Gu knew very well about his knot, and couldn't help but glance at Shen Qiuyu beside the prince, and snorted softly in her heart. Beauty is a disaster! If it weren't for this woman, Xinian wouldn't have ended up with Yan'er. It's getting to this point...
Shen Qiuyu noticed Queen Gu's slightly cold eyes, her body trembled slightly, and she lowered her head unconsciously.
Seeing Shen Qiuyu's pitiful look, the prince suddenly felt pity in his heart. He did not shy away from everyone and asked in a low voice: "Yu'er, do you want to take a rest?"
Without waiting for Shen Qiuyu's response, Queen Gu said calmly: "If you feel uncomfortable, just retreat."
When Empress Gu spoke like this, Shen Qiuyu couldn't help but retreat. Although she felt aggrieved in every way, she didn't dare to show any of it. She bowed respectfully and retreated.
Before leaving, Shen Qiuyu quickly raised his eyes and glanced at Gu Xinian.
By chance, Gu Xinian also looked over. Their eyes briefly touched each other in the air, one was unfathomable, and the other's heart trembled secretly. But the expressions on their faces were as usual, like two strangers who didn't know each other at all. , they quickly looked away.
As soon as Shen Qiuyu left, the atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became much more relaxed.
Empress Gu smiled at Zheng Hong and said: "Brother, it's not good for Xinian to be so lazy all the time. While today is a good day, I will put in a few nice words for him in front of the emperor later and find a job for him. Let's go!" Although the tone was of discussion, it was very firm. It seemed that Gu Hong would not refuse.
Sure enough, Gu Hong immediately smiled and said: "Of course this is a good thing..."
"Father," Gu Xinian's voice was neither high nor low, but he just interrupted Gu Hong: "Today is my aunt's birthday, and we haven't presented the gifts we brought yet!"
Gu Hong knew clearly that he was changing the subject, so he had no choice but to cooperate. Otherwise, with Gu Xinian's temperament, it would be difficult to end things if he said something unpleasant.
Queen Gu glanced at Gu Xinian, as if she wanted to say something, but finally said nothing.
In such an occasion, Ye Qinglan had no chance to interrupt, so she was very leisurely and could just watch the show. It would be even better if she could pack melon seeds or popcorn at this time!
It's just that Gu Xiyu's condition is really worrying. Even if she lowers her face, you can see that her face is very pale.
The rules in the palace are very strict, and they must not whisper to each other like usual. Ye Qinglan had no other choice but to quietly move her steps and get as close to Gu Xiyu as possible. Then she quietly tugged on Gu Xiyu's sleeve.
Gu Xiyu raised her eyes, filled with fear and uneasiness.
Ye Qinglan felt extremely distressed, but was unable to express any words of comfort. She could only look at Gu Xiyu with firm yet gentle eyes. Her eyes were bright and warm, as if she could speak, and quietly calmed down Gu Xiyu's nervousness.
Gu Xiyu took a deep breath, exhaled, and nodded slightly, indicating that she could hold on.
Ye Qinglan could see that Gu Xiyu's emotions were very tense and could burst out at any time. If it were like usual, she could have quietly pulled Gu Xiyu aside for psychological counseling. But now there were so many pairs of eyes watching, and she couldn't even Gu Xiyu didn't have a chance to say anything quietly, and there was nothing she could do no matter how worried or anxious she was. She could only secretly pray that the chat would end soon and give her some intermission time.
Facts have proved that this is simply a luxury hope.
