Pearl in the Palm

Ye Lizhu also went to find Jiang Ranyi, and the two went to Zhaoyang Palace together.

Ye Fuan said: “Zhuzhu, father has to leave first. Be careful in the palace.”

Ye Lizhu nodded.

When they found Jiang Ranyi, the two went to Zhaoyang Palace. After the maid went in to report, Ye Lizhu and Jiang Ranyi went in together.

The queen hasn’t come out yet, and the high-ranking concubines such as the noble concubine and the wise concubine have not come. Most of the people who came are the family ladies, the ladies and the low-ranking concubines.

As soon as Ye Lizhu and Jiang Ranyi entered, Mrs. Dun Guogong called Jiang Ranyi to sit on their side.

Jiang Ranyi and Ye Lizhu sat next to Mrs. Dun Guo.

Mrs. Dun Guo looked at Jiang Ranyi.

Jiang Ranyi dressed plainly, with a low-key dress. Like Ye Lizhu, both of them hung an exquisite golden lock in front of them. The golden locks were inlaid with various rare gems. The golden locks were exquisitely crafted and only looked elegant and luxurious. Not looking cumbersome and tacky, Jiang Ranyi also wore a green bracelet on his wrist. The bracelet was full of water, lustrous and beautiful. It was worth a lot of money, at least a thousand taels of silver.

Mrs. Dun Guo could tell that Jiang Ranyi was very much loved at home. If she married to Tian’s house in the future, she would definitely bring a lot of dowry.

Tian Qiao and Wuying have a better relationship. Because Wuying was kicked out of the Ye family, Tian Qiao didn’t like Ye Lizhu very much. Regarding Jiang Ranyi, who was married to the Hetian family, Tian Qiao tried his best to curry favor. Mrs. Dun Guo Gong said that the Jiang family is rich. When Jiang Ranyi enters the door, the money Jiang Ranyi brings is from the Tian family. Tian Qiaoruo and Jiang Ranyi have a good relationship. Maybe Jiang Ranyi can share some of her. thing.

Tian Qiao said with a smile: “The gemstone hairpin on Sister Jiang’s head is so beautiful. It should be hard to get such a big pearl, right?”

Jiang Ranyi also heard that Ye Lizhu and Jun had talked about the Tian family. She didn’t like the Tian family. No matter how well Tian Qiao and Mrs. Dun Guo pretended to be, Jiang Ranyi was unmoved.

She touched her hairpin and said faintly: “It’s not rare. The cousin at home gave me a box of malachite a few days ago. I picked some for the craftsman to make into jewelry and shared it with my cousin.”

Tian Qiao smiled and said, “Sister Jiang has been living with Miss Ye? I heard that Miss Ye always needs someone to take care of it. This is also very troublesome. If Sister Jiang doesn’t dislike it, it would be great to live in our house.”

Ye Lizhu said, “The Ye family is a relative of the Jiang family. The Jiang family also has a house in the capital. They went to live in your house for no reason. Are you trying to ruin my cousin’s reputation?”

Ye Lizhu has always been reluctant to talk. Tian Qiao saw that Ye Lizhu was sitting silently, thinking she was silent, and she was suddenly said to her, and Tian Qiao’s face flushed.

Jiang Ranyi hasn’t married yet, so she really can’t live with her fiance’s house. Mrs. Dunguo was reluctant to reprimand her daughter, and hurriedly came out to make a round: “Qiao’er is not sensible, Miss Ye, Sister Ran, don’t bother with her.”

Tian Qiao was sulking while holding the veil, but she hated Ye Lizhu and Jiang Ranyi in her heart.

In addition to their polite greetings, the two sisters did not pay much attention to the Tian family.

Mrs. Dun Guo was anxious, wondering if Jiang Ranyi knew that Tian Zhuo was committing a mess again recently.

The imperial concubine, sage concubine and others also came soon, and after the queen came out, they saluted again as usual.

The etiquette was very cumbersome. A group of people greeted and greeted. Jiang Ranyi turned his head and said to Ye Lizhu: “It’s quite boring. It is said that we still have to listen to the drama in the evening, which is a bit more interesting.”

Ye Lizhu curled her lips and smiled and said, “I’m still idle at home, so I might as well have something to eat here to watch the fun. This snack is delicious, cousin, you can try it.”

Ye Lizhu picked up a piece of crabmeat cake and gave it to Jiang Ranyi.

Because this time was to celebrate the prince, the queen’s face was naturally more stretched than usual, with a smile on her eyebrows.

Concubine Sheng’s complexion didn’t seem so good. The three princesses sat beside Concubine Sheng, but Wei Nuonuo did not dare to say a word.

The palace lady poured a glass of wine for the queen, and the other female relatives were filled with wine, Ye Lizhu quietly exchanged tea for the drink.

Concubine Xian stood up and said with a smile: “This time the prince has done a great job in destroying a group of thieves in Jinshan. The prince’s youth is the honor of the entire Great Yan Dynasty, and it is also your honor for the empress.”

The queen smiled softly: “The prince is still young, but he did the job properly. A few days ago, his subordinates didn’t have a sense of measure to get him involved. After this incident, your majesty is relieved of the prince’s ability in the future, and the court is more stable. Gong respects everyone a cup, and hopes that the Yan Dynasty will be peaceful, and that the former and the harem will be stable in the future.”

The queen drank a glass of Chinese wine, and the concubines, madam, and young lady below also drank the wine in front of her.

Ye Lizhu used tea instead of wine and drank a glass calmly.

Tian Qiao glanced at Ye Lizhu and said, “Miss Ye, the empress is toasting, but you are drinking tea. What do you mean? Is it disrespectful to the prince? Disrespectful to the queen?”

Tian Qiao has never been a smart and pleasant person. Therefore, whether it is Tao Meiwen, the princess of the Chen Palace, or Zheng Yin’er, the lady of the General’s Palace, she usually doesn’t like to play with her. She also likes to bring Wu Ying, who can’t see the stage, to her side to set off herself.

As soon as this sentence came out, Mrs. Dun Guo pulled Tian Qiao’s skirt.

Everyone looked at Ye Lizhu’s side.

Ye Lizhu stood up and said: “The courtier does not disrespect the empress and the prince. The courtier is taking medicine recently, and the doctor told him not to drink alcohol. This is the way to use tea instead of wine.”

The queen empress is naturally biased towards Ye Lizhu. She smiled and said: “Miss Tian is a real girl, but you don’t need to take these little things too seriously. Miss Ye is in poor health and forcing her to drink will only make her sicker. This time, Miss Ye was able to drag the sick body over, enough to show that she gave the prince and the palace face.”

Tian Qiao did not hear the accusation in the Queen’s words, nor did she know that she was embarrassed in front of everyone. After sitting down, facing the reproaching eyes of Mrs. Dun Guo, Tian Qiao whispered: “I’m just telling the truth.”

Ye Lizhu said, “To tell the truth, we have to separate occasions, Miss Tian, ​​you sue me in front of the empress, not only disturbed the empress’s interest, but also made me wonder if my cousin and I really did something wrong. Let you be so targeted.”

Mrs. Dun Guo knew that Tian Qiao was wrong this time, but Ye Lizhu was aggressive, and Jiang Ranyi’s failure to help Tian Qiao also made her a little dissatisfied. Even if the cousin kisses again, can she compare to the future sister-in-law? If you offend my sister-in-law, you will not be afraid of not being loved by your in-laws after entering the door?

But on the surface, Mrs. Dun Guo couldn’t let Jiang Ranyi see anything. She said: “Qiao’er is young, she usually does this, she didn’t think too much. Miss Ye, if you are merciful, just let her go this time.”

Ye Lizhu’s expression became much colder, even if Tian Zhuo’s character was good, she couldn’t let Jiang Ranyi enter Tian’s house even though Tian Qiao’s education and Mrs. Dunguo’s caregiver were unclear.

The queen specially invited the troupe into the palace to sing. They were all famous actors of the moment. They sang one after another until the sky turned dark.

Some ladies and ladies also left the table midway, the imperial concubine left early, and the queen also left for a while.

Ye Lizhu and Jiang Ranyi were fascinated by the theater, and they waited until they were shaken before Ye Lizhu reacted.

Hai Tan said: “Miss, you watched for an entire hour, and there was no movement for an hour. If you go down this way, your body will become numb. The slave will take you to the imperial garden for a walk, and come back after a quarter of an hour to watch, okay?”

Ye Lizhu didn’t want to leave: “It’s too cold outside. I want to finish watching this one.”

After watching a scene, Ye Lizhu also felt that her legs and feet were sore and sore, and she had indeed been sitting for too long.

Jiang Ranyi still looked down, Ye Lizhu and Hai Tan went out together.

As soon as he left the palace gate, Ye Lizhu said: “It’s so cold, it’s windy, and the sky is dark. Let’s walk in the corridor for a while and then go back. There is no palace guard here, presumably they also feel cold, and they all return. The room is resting.”

Hai Tan smiled and said, “Miss is fascinated by the theater. It’s okay to take a walk here, come over and let the slave and maid enclose you a cloak.”

Ye Lizhu turned her back and asked Hai Tan to tidy up her cloak from behind.

She waited for a long time and couldn’t wait for any movement. When she was about to look back, she pressed her shoulders with both hands and took off the hat from the cloak.

Ye Lizhu turned her head in surprise, but she was held by someone, a door was opened, and she was led into a strange room.

It was already dark, but there were no lights in the room, let alone anyone.

Ye Lizhu was pressed against the wooden door, and he could clearly smell the faint aroma of wine and cedar wood on the man.

She couldn’t move, and whispered “His Royal Highness Qin.”

The man’s chin rubbed against her forehead, Ye Lizhu’s little hand touched his sleeve, and the material was cold, thick and textured.

After a long time, Tixiao pinched her soft chin: “Why didn’t you call uncle?”

The room was dark, Ye Lizhu couldn’t adapt to the darkness, she could only hear the man’s low and mellow voice, and touched a hard body.

She said: “My dad asked me to call this…”

Tixiao’s fingers went up, his fingers were slender and clean, and his breath was refreshing and good-smelling.

Ye Lizhu had to part her lips.

His voice came from above: “You can’t drink?”

In fact, it’s not that you can’t drink. Ye Lizhu can drink this kind of low alcohol fruit wine. It’s just that she has been with Master Wuxin since she was a child. She has adhered to the Five Precepts of Buddhism for nearly ten years. Drinking wine deteriorates the color and her prestige. And change.

Ti Xiao squeezed her waist with the other hand: “Speak.”

Ye Lizhu’s body softened, she didn’t want to talk, this was really weird, but Tixiao apparently refused to let her go, his voice became softer: “Be good, speak.”

When Ye Lizhu spoke, the tip of his tongue naturally moved with the words.

This will touch Tixiao’s finger. Moreover, she can’t tell.

Tixiao insisted on hearing her voice. Ye Lizhu couldn’t push and push away, and she couldn’t escape. She couldn’t refuse Tixiao, so she whispered: “Master does not allow drinking, Buddhism rules.”

Buddhism’s precepts, the thoughts of Xiao Xiao moved, the feeling from the **** was so clear, and the water was shining, he whispered: “You have broken the precept for me long ago.”

Ye Lizhu vaguely said: “I don’t have one.”

The clearer the feeling between the fingers, the darker Tixiao’s eyes would be. If there were lights at this time, Ye Lizhu would definitely find out how terrifying a man looked at her.

That kind of strong possessiveness can’t be resolved no matter what.

I don’t know how long it took, Ti Xiao finally let go of her, Ye Lizhu was about to take a breath, but was caught up in the waist.

She was fluttering anyway, Tixiao pressed her on the soft couch, he shackled Ye Lizhu’s wrists, her wrists were slender, one of them was wearing a bracelet and was held in Tixiao’s palm.

Ye Lizhu said, “His Royal Highness, I’m going back. It’s too long and my cousin will definitely be worried. It won’t be nice to wait for the queen’s wife to ask.

Ti Xiao said: “Call out brother.”

Ye Lizhu: “I…”

She didn’t know how to speak.

After all, Tixiao has a long history, even if he doesn’t call his uncle, he can’t call his brother or something. After all, Ti Xiao and Ye Fuan are the same generation, and she and the prince are the same generation.

It was too ashamed to shout out at his request.

Ye Lizhu said, “No, I don’t want it.”

Tixiao squinted his eyes: “No?”

His tone became a little dangerous. Ye Lizhu’s cloak was untied and threw it on the ground. The hairpin also fell on the ground, and the skirts of his clothes were scattered a lot.

A cold feeling came from the collarbone, like a cold blade lightly scratching.

Ye Lizhu shivered slightly.

She knew that it was not a blade, but a cold fingertip.

Her feelings about Tixiao are particularly complicated. On the one hand, her body is in need of Tixiao, and her body can instinctively ask for Tixiao constantly. On the other hand, Tixiao is too unpredictable. Deep down in her heart, Ye Lizhu has some sense of fear. Especially in this case, she can’t see Tixiao, but Tixiao can see her clearly. Chu.

Ye Lizhu whispered “Brother”.
