Luo Jiuli curled her lips and smiled coldly, not giving her a chance to speak at all, holding her mother's arm and turning towards the door.
"Also! Everyone should know that I got a blessing in disguise when I got the immortal doctor Ling Xuzi to take me as my disciple."
"Do you have medical skills? It's not like living dead, flesh and bones, but I can still deal with headaches, brain fever, and difficult and complicated diseases."
"This man! Who can eat whole grains without getting sick? Today, everyone in Zhichun Pavilion counts."
"If anyone has a difficult or complicated disease that cannot be cured, you can come to me. The consultation fee is not much, five hundred taels."
Luo Jiuli's last words were spoken loudly, and could be heard clearly both inside and outside Zhichun Pavilion.
"Mother, let's go."
The Duke's wife was happy, relieved, and her face was bright.
"Okay, let's go."
The mother and daughter stepped out of the Zhichun Pavilion together and walked out.
In Zhichun Pavilion, Mrs. Hu's expression could no longer be described as ugly.
She stared at Luo Jiuli's back.
What a shame!
For most of her life, she has always trampled on others, and no one has dared to embarrass her like this!
Bingyu is right, Luo Jiuli, this little bitch is really too arrogant, he really deserves to die--
As for Princess Xiyun, looking at the Luo family's mother and daughter leaving, a trace of poisonous calculation flashed through her eyes covered by her bangs.
Just after Luo Jiuli helped the Duke's wife out of Zhichun Pavilion, a young eunuch in the corner also bowed his head and left.
In the palace, outside the Yangxin Palace.
Xiao Mingxuan was holding his hands behind his back, still wearing a black suit, with a red gold belt around his waist. On the hem of the black suit, there were dark gold cloud patterns embroidered with gold thread.
"Mrs. Su? Su Shangshu? Humph! Good, good, very good."
If you dare to be rude to Luo Jiuli, you are rude to him, Xiao Mingxuan.
He looked up at the direction of the imperial garden and smiled coldly. Next to him, with his head lowered and his eyebrows lowered, was the young eunuch who had just exited the Zhichun Pavilion.
"You go ahead, there is no need to be deliberate, but you must ensure the safety of mother and daughter."
Xiao Mingxuan waved his hand.
"yes."
The young eunuch bowed respectfully.
——
At this time, in the Changchun Palace, Hu Bingyu was standing in front of the bronze mirror, gently combing the Queen Mother's hair. Beside her, Concubine Hu was selecting a suitable phoenix hairpin with the Queen Mother.
Outside the hall, a sound of crying was heard coming in.
The Queen Mother's eyes narrowed.
"what happened?"
Concubine Hu raised her head.
"Listen, it sounds like Hanyu's voice."
Just as he was saying this, a petite figure ran in crying at the door. While running and crying, he knelt on his knees in front of the Queen Mother.
"Please ask Grandma Huang to make the decision for Hanyu."
Behind her, Hu Bingyu raised her eyebrows.
"Hanyu, please don't be rude in front of your grandma and aunt."
When Hu Hanyu was yelled at by her sister, she immediately lowered her cry, sobbing so pitifully.
The Queen Mother frowned slightly.
"What's wrong? Who provoked you?"
Concubine Hu also stepped forward to help Hu Hanyu up and said distressedly:
"What's wrong? Who wronged you?"
Hu Hanyu wiped away her tears and then told the Empress Dowager and Concubine Hu about what happened in Zhichun Pavilion in an aggravating manner.
Snap!
The Queen Mother had a gloomy face and slapped her palm on the table.
"What a barefoot person who is not afraid of wearing shoes."
"Luo Jiuli, you are so arrogant that you don't take anyone seriously!"
The air in Changchun Palace was a little stagnant.
"Green hairpin."
"Queen Mother, my servant is here."
The green hairpin is the eldest maid in front of the Queen Mother.
"Go and invite the Duke's wife and Miss Luo Er to the Changchun Palace. The Ai family would like to see how Miss Luo Er has developed such courage after not seeing her for more than half a year."
"yes."
Green Hairpin responded and turned around to go out.
"etc."
Beside her, Concubine Hu stopped the green hairpin and looked at the darkening sky outside.
"Aunt, the palace banquet is about to begin. The ladies, noble daughters, princes, and princes of all the families are still waiting in the imperial garden. If the Luo family mother and daughter are announced at this time, I am afraid that the palace banquet will not be held as scheduled.
.”
"What's more, Luo Jiuli saved Mrs. Fengde and Prince Ninth one after another. The emperor valued her very much, and Prince Ninth even defended her several times in public."
The Queen Mother twisted the Buddhist beads on her wrist with a cold expression on her face.
"What's your response?"
This question was asked by Concubine Hu.
Concubine Hu's eyebrows were serious, and she whispered a few words in the Queen Mother's ear, her eyes surging wildly with strong murderous intent.
Sisters Hu Bingyu and Hu Hanyu looked at each other, the color in their eyes was strange and unpredictable.
"It is best that the Emperor and the Nine Kings cannot interfere in this matter. Once the Emperor and the Nine Kings intervene, they will only pick it up heavily and put it down gently."
"So, this method is the only method, and it is also the most fatal method."
——
At this time, twilight was approaching, and all kinds of lanterns and glass lamps were hung everywhere inside and outside the palace.
Teams of imperial guards can be seen everywhere throughout the palace, patrolling everywhere and being heavily guarded.
In the Imperial Garden, under the lanterns and glass lamps that are as bright as day, there are rows of long tables and seats.
The surrounding area is filled with large chrysanthemums of different colors, yellow, white, pink and purple.
Not far away is a stage built by the water. On the stage, there are dancers and musicians preparing and waiting.
Some of the invited ladies, ladies, and young men from aristocratic families were sitting in the pavilion chatting in twos and threes, while others were scattered not far from the banquet, chatting and laughing in small groups.
The entire imperial garden immediately became lively with the arrival of these graceful and graceful unmarried boys and girls.
Compared with the swaying figures of those young girls, Luo Jiuli can no longer be described as lazy.
At this time, she rested her elbows on the railing under the pavilion, holding her chin in her hands, with a lazy posture.
"Jiu'er, your attitude is really -"
The Duke's wife reluctantly tugged on her daughter's arm, trying to make her stand upright.
"Mother, when we entered the palace, didn't mother promise me not to let me see each other?"
The fact that she is so lazy is exactly what she wants.
Tonight, if she had not been able to refute the Queen Mother's decree, she would not have even been willing to step through the palace gate.
"My mother promised you, but you don't behave like a noble lady at all. Are you making people laugh for nothing?"
"Daughter?"
Luo Jiuli snorted.
She really disdains the title of noble girl.
"Mother, what is going on with my eldest brother and the eldest lady of Editor Shen's family in the Hanlin Academy?"
The Duke's wife shook her head and sighed.
"Then Miss Shen and your eldest brother did have a relationship. As for the reason why they separated-"
"Your eldest brother never likes us to interfere too much in his marriage, so the family doesn't know much about the inside story."
"Ah! Even mother doesn't know? Then, what is Miss Shen's name? Mother should know, right?"
