Bai Yanqing pinched her sleeves, feeling slightly uneasy.
Not long after, I heard the palace servants calling the fifth prince to enter the palace.
The fifth prince, Yun Kai, is fifteen this year and is the youngest among several princes who are eligible for marriage this year. He is not like the second prince who loves to make friends with the ministers of the previous dynasty, nor is he like the third prince who is crazy about having fun.
The madness was unregulated. Compared to the others, he looked more low-key. However, what happened during the Double Ninth Festival a few days ago was still fresh in Bai Yanqing's memory.
Concubine Xian easily coaxed the emperor to smile. Yun Kai made the emperor extinguish his anger with just a few words. How many people in the entire harem could do it and make the emperor smile when he was in anger? I am afraid that only Concubine Xian and her son can do it.
Bar?!
"I asked, why is the mother-in-law's palace so busy today? It turns out... the emperor's sister-in-law is here!"
A joking voice rang out, pulling Bai Yanqing back from her thoughts. She quickly stood up, saluted Yun Kai, and then showed a slight embarrassment.
"Don't scare Miss Bai anymore by talking nonsense."
Concubine Xian scolded Yun Kai, but her face was filled with joy that could not be concealed.
This shows that Concubine Xian loves Yun Kai very much.
"Fifth brother!"
It's Yunyi! When she saw Yun Kai coming back, she happily jumped in front of Yun Kai.
"Fifth brother, are you willing to bring some good things to me today?"
Yunyi pulled Yun Kai's clothes and shook them constantly, her little mouth pouting high.
It can be seen that Yun Yi is a very favored child, otherwise, she would not have such an innocent and ignorant temperament! She was well protected by Concubine Xian and Yun Kai.
Bai Yanqing suddenly realized that she was too close to Ji Yuedian, which seemed... not good! She and Yun Yi were different from each other, and she should not get too close to Yun Yi on a whim.
Thinking of this, Bai Yanqing tightened her sleeves more and more. The thing she originally planned to give to Yun Yi suddenly felt that she couldn't take it out!
Perhaps Concubine Xian's summoning of Bai Yanqing today was an arrangement with ulterior motives.
"You! I knew that the one you were always thinking about was not your fifth brother and me!"
Although Yun Kai said dejected words, he actually conjured two small gadgets for Yun Yi like a magic trick.
Yunyi snatched the thing from Yun Kai's hand and happily jumped around Yun Kai several times!
Such happy Yun Yi instantly affected Bai Yanqing, and she couldn't help but follow Yun Yi's smile and raise the corners of her mouth.
"Royal sister-in-law... you should smile more!"
Yun Kai suddenly spoke and said something to Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing was stunned for a moment. The smile she had just smiled suddenly froze on her face. She felt a little embarrassed.
"Okay, Kai'er, don't tease Miss Bai anymore. Women are not as shameless as your men!"
Concubine Xian's timely words relieved the embarrassing situation for Bai Yanqing.
"Sister Bai, would you like to accompany Yi'er and go out to play for a while?"
Yun Yi suddenly stepped forward, took Bai Yanqing's hand, and pulled her out.
Bai Yanqing couldn't resist her, so she turned around, greeted Concubine Xian and Yun Kai, and was then pulled out by Yun Yi.
Bai Yanqing naturally knew that Yun Kai would not return to Jiyue Palace at this time for no reason. Presumably, he also had something to discuss with Concubine Xian! It was somewhat inappropriate for her to stay in the palace at this time.
.
"Sister Bai, you don't need to be afraid of my mother-in-law. In fact, my mother-in-law is a very nice person! She treats Yi'er very well, and she treats fifth brother very well! She treats my father very well too!"
Yun Yi probably noticed Bai Yanqing's predicament, so he found an excuse to pull Bai Yanqing out!
I have to say that Yunyi is very smart despite her young age!
Or to put it another way, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes give birth to phoenixes! The daughter born to the virtuous concubine is naturally... as smart as her!
Hearing Yun Yi's childish words, Bai Yanqing smiled. The people Yun Yi mentioned were the people Xian Guifei cared about the most and were closest to her. Of course, she would treat them well!
"Yes, Concubine Xian is very good, very beautiful, and very gentle. Just like Yunyi."
Bai Yanqing bent down, smiled and touched Yunyi's little head, and her words were natural and full of praise for the virtuous concubine.
Looking up, the palace people scattered around were busy with their own tasks. At that time, few people noticed Bai Yanqing and Yun Yi. After hesitating again and again, Bai Yanqing took advantage of the time when no one was paying attention.
, and took out the meeting gift prepared for Yunyi.
"Is this... what Sister Bai gave it to me?"
Yun Yi took the two things handed over by Bai Yanqing, with excitement and joy that couldn't be hidden on his face.
"Of course! Does the little princess still like it?"
Bai Yanqing looked at Yunyi with a smile, hoping that she would like him.
"I like it! Sister Bai gave it to me. I really like it! What is this?"
Yun Yi grabbed the two things and asked Bai Yanqing happily.
"This is called the Nine Links. Only when the links are interlocked can it count! This is a jade cicada..."
Bai Yanqing pointed at these two things and patiently explained to Yunyi.
The Nine Chains may be a bit difficult for Yun Yi at her age, but Bai Yanqing believes that with Yun Yi's intelligence, she will be able to solve it on her own one day.
Jade cicada, this is Bai Yanqing's best wishes to Yunyi. The first wish is that in the future, Yunyi will have no worries about food and clothing, and wealth will last forever. The second wish is that in the future, Yunyi will be smart and smart, and will be a blockbuster. The third wish is that Yunyi will be healthy and healthy.
, grow up peacefully and have a long life.
A small jade cicada conveys Bai Yanqing's best wishes to Yun Yi!
Yunyi is the daughter of Concubine Xian. She has never seen any rare jade before! However, this is indeed the first time she has seen this jade cicada!
Yunyi held Yu Chan in her hand and looked at it carefully and again! Her eyes were full of novelty! She couldn't put it down even more for the two things Bai Yanqing gave her!
"Thank you Sister Bai! Apart from my father, my mother and my fifth brother, Sister Bai is the best person to Yi'er!"
Yun Yi quickly hugged Bai Yanqing, and rubbed her little head against Bai Yanqing's chest again and again. Perhaps, for someone as young as Yun Yi, a hug is the best form of gratitude!
"Miss!"
Cai Xing and Yuan Li in the distance saw Bai Yanqing leaving the hall and ran over quickly!
Cai Xing looked Bai Yanqing up and down for a week, and then he felt relieved after confirming that she was fine.
"This is Princess Yunyi."
Bai Yanqing pointed to the little man in her arms and introduced him to Tong Caixing.
"My slave has seen the princess!"
Cai Xing and Yuan Li hurriedly saluted Yunyi. After all, this was in the Jiyue Palace, and there were many people. If they didn't pay attention, they were afraid that someone would come to the Concubine Xian and gossip.
Rooted!
Yun Yi waved her hands, not caring much. She still nestled on Bai Yanqing's chest and refused to let go. Although Bai Yanqing was helpless, her heart was filled with warmth from Yun Yi.
Who doesn’t like holding such a soft and cute little girl in your arms?
Not long after, Yun Kai came out. Presumably, he and Concubine Xian had all said what they needed to say!
"Is this... relying on the emperor's sister-in-law?!"
Yun Kai looked at Yun Yi lying on Bai Yanqing's body and teased with a smile.
Yun Yi turned his head and made a face at Yun Kai, still holding Bai Yanqing tightly with his arms.
"Yi'er, stop fooling around!"
The speaker was the noble concubine who had just walked out of the palace.
Yuan Li and Cai Xing saw this, and after hurriedly bowing, they retreated far away and waited.
"Mother, Sister Bai smells so good!"
Yun Yi suddenly spoke and said this. Not only Concubine Xian was stunned, but even Yun Kai was stunned!
At this moment, Bai Yanqing was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl in...
"Hahahahahahaha..."
Yun Kai couldn't help it first. He looked at Yun Yi clinging to Bai Yanqing's body and his laughter was deafening.
Perhaps infected by this atmosphere, Concubine Xian couldn't help laughing. She took out her handkerchief, lightly covered her lips, and her curved eyebrows revealed that she was smiling at the moment.
Maybe it was because she loved Wujiwu. Seeing that Yunyi liked Bai Yanqing so much, Concubine Xian's expression towards Bai Yanqing softened slightly. Her words became less indifferent.
"It's rare for Yi'er to like Miss Bai so much. If Miss Bai is willing, how about staying and having lunch before leaving? By the way, I can spend more time with Yi'er. I haven't seen Yi'er for a long time, and I'm so happy.
!”
Lunch?
Bai Yanqing was stunned again. Concubine Xian seemed to be asking for her opinion, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Concubine Xian was informing Bai Yanqing, not...asking for Bai Yanqing's opinion!
"The empress and the princess love me so much that I can only ask for it."
After staying in the palace for a long time, Bai Yanqing also came up with such high-sounding words.
After receiving a satisfactory answer, Concubine Xian asked the palace servants around her to notify the imperial kitchen to add more dishes.
…
Lunch.
The child's physical strength is really amazing. Yunyi played all morning and never complained about being tired, but Bai Yanqing clearly felt a little tired. Fortunately, there were Yuan Li and Cai Xing, two very energetic people.
I played with Yunyi all morning.
During lunch, looking at the table full of dishes, Bai Yanqing felt that she was so hungry that she could eat a cow! However, because she was in Jiyue Palace, Bai Yanqing could not do as much as she did in Qiyun Palace. She just stood there.
He waited for the palace people to call Concubine Xian to come and serve the meal.
At this moment, there was a burst of noise outside Jiyue Palace. Not long after, someone from the palace came to report that the eldest prince was here!
Yunqi is here?!
Just when Bai Yanqing was stunned, Yun Qi had already ran in. He saw Bai Yanqing at a glance, and then quickly ran to Bai Yanqing!
"Madam, why did you come to Jiyue Palace? I've been looking for you for a long time!"
Yunqi's tone was full of sadness.
But Bai Yanqing could see that Yun Qi's eyes were full of worry! It's no wonder that Concubine Xian suddenly called Bai Yanqing over. No one knows what kind of medicine Concubine Xian is selling in her gourd, right?
What's more, in this deep palace, how many people can have a pure mind?
"The imperial concubine invited me over to play with the little princess!"
Bai Yanqing patted Yunqi to express comfort.
Seeing that Bai Yanqing was fine, Yun Qi felt relieved.
"The eldest prince is so reluctant to part with Miss Bai? Is he afraid that I will eat her up?"
Concubine Xian's voice sounded from behind Yunqi. There was a hint of joking in her words!
"The noble concubine is right, I won't be able to see my wife for a while, and I will feel panicked!"
Yun Qi turned around and answered seriously. If he were an ordinary person, others would definitely laugh at him. But, he is Yun Qi, and he is the "silly" eldest prince that everyone calls him! So he
Everyone has become accustomed to this behavior!
"Since the eldest prince is here, let's have a meal together!"
Concubine Xian glanced at Yun Qi lightly, and then spoke.
Yun Qi was naturally willing, and he couldn't wish for him to accompany Bai Yanqing in Jiyue Palace.
After everyone was seated, Concubine Xian ordered the meal to be served.
The exquisite delicacies are already cold when you eat them.
Bai Yanqing frowned slightly, not used to eating cold food. Every day, Cai Xing cooked the meals for Bai Yanqing and brought them to the table hot. When Bai Yanqing sat down to eat, they were still hot and she was still eating.
I have never eaten such cold food before.
"Miss Bai, I'm not used to the food in this palace?"
Perhaps sensing that Bai Yanqing hadn't taken a few bites, Concubine Xian put down her bowl and chopsticks, tucked her lips together, and then asked softly.
"The meals in the Empress's palace are all very rare to see."
Bai Yanqing did not directly respond to Concubine Xian's words. Instead, she... praised the style of the dishes.
"It's just... it's missing some... fireworks!"
Bai Yanqing said it very implicitly.
Fireworks?
Concubine Jiangxian was stunned by these words. What is fireworks?!
