Su Xinyan intentionally walked to the accountant's room to look for the butler. Fortunately, she did not waste her effort in deliberately taking a detour. The butler was looking at the accounts in the accounting room.
Seeing Su Xinyan's arrival, the butler was a little surprised and calm.
Su Xinyan looked at him and could tell at a glance that he knew. However, as expected, it was Su Xinyan's turn to feel indifferent.
The butler was about to pack his luggage when he heard Su Xinyan's voice. "Butler, there's no need to be so polite. I don't have much time, so I can only make it short. Please tell my father that although the carriage is not very important, it is not impossible for me to enter the palace. Don't anger the Empress and ruin the relationship between father and daughter.”
The butler was stunned. He raised his head abruptly. The pink figure had already left and faded out of his sight.
He felt as if something had changed. It had completely changed at this moment.
The carriage was rented, so it naturally had the tenant's mark, just like how an official's carriage usually had its own unique mark. It was Su Xinyan's first time sitting in a rented carriage, and she only felt uncomfortable.
The carriage was rented from the common people, and the workmanship was naturally not as exquisite as the official carriage. It was not an exaggeration to say that the degree of jolting was definitely three times that of the official carriage.
After alighting from the carriage, Su Xinyan felt as though she was still in the carriage. Just like that, she obviously wasn't in the right state of mind and sat in the carriage that the Empress had sent to pick her up. Because Su Xin Yan had a token given to her by the Empress, she could enter and exit the palace gates to a certain extent. The Empress did not know that Su Xin Yan would really come today. However, she had made the arrangements after she mentioned it last time.
The main pavilion of the Empress's palace, Jieqi Tower, was usually spent in Jieqi Tower except for the greetings of the other palaces.
Su Xinyan was sent to Marvelous knot Brothel by the horse carriage after a quarter of an hour. After the carriage stopped, she raised her hand to rub her eyes and got out of the carriage with Suxue's outstretched hand.
When the palace servants who were busy in the Marvelous knot Pavilion saw Su Xin Yan arrive, they all stopped their actions and bowed respectfully to her." Greetings, Eldest Miss!”The orderly voices were clearly trained.
After entering the Magnificent Bestowal Pavilion, Su Xin Yan found out that her cousin, Murong Yi Xiu, was also in the Magnificent Bestowal Pavilion.
The empress and the emperor had a son and a daughter. Unfortunately, the son had passed away for some reason a few years ago, leaving only a lovely daughter. The daughter was the Emperor's eldest daughter, named Murong Yixiu. The people in the palace called her the Eldest Princess, which was different from Su Xin Yan's " Eldest Miss."
The Emperor only had two daughters. They were the eldest princess Murong Yixiu, who was raised by the Empress, and the second princess Murong Yini, who was a noble.
Murong Yixiu was fourteen years old this year, four years older than the ten-year-old Su Xinyan. The former had a lively personality, but she was also an intelligent and agile master. In addition, she was doted on by the Emperor. Even Noble Consort Xin, who had two sons, would not provoke her in the palace. The latter had a quiet personality, but there was also a stubbornness and sunshine that ordinary people could not understand. He was outstanding in talent. In her previous life, the Emperor had once said in public that she, the Crown Princess, was like an orchid in an empty valley.
If one was familiar with Su Xin Yan, they would definitely believe that under certain circumstances, Su Xin Yan would abandon her superior status and devote herself to the "Empty Valley" to become an arrogant "You Lan".
When Murong Yixiu saw Su Xin Yan enter, she threw down the crystal cake in her hand, pinched her handkerchief, and quickly walked over to pull Su Xin Yan back. She held Su Xinyan's hands and looked at her from top to bottom. Her tone was a little dissatisfied." Good cousin, I haven't seen you for a long time. You seem to have lost weight again."”As soon as she said this, Su Xinyan knew that she was unhappy that she had lost weight again.
Indeed, Su Xin Yan was ten years old, and was indeed much thinner than other young ladies of the same age in the capital. One could use the fact that she had no two pieces of flesh to describe her.
Su Xinyan blinked. She knew how good her cousin was to her, and she could not help but feel closer to her. Even her voice was covered with a childish coquettish voice." Cousin, you might not know, but now the trend in the capital is to be thin and beautiful. I also want to keep up with the pace of the young ladies in the capital. I can't be left far behind.”
As she spoke, she had already walked to the seat of the head of Jie Qi Tower. There sat the amiable Empress and her two personal servant girls. The Empress carried a clean jade bowl and scooped a bowl of lotus seed soup for Murong Yixiu and Su Xinyan.
"Auntie." Su Xinyan's voice was still the same as before. It still carried the sound of a baby who had not taken off her clothes. This voice simply melted the Empress 'heart.
"Hey. Get up quickly and come over to drink the lotus seed soup.”As the Empress spoke, she actually stood up and held Su Xin Yan's small hand. Murong Yixiu, on the other hand, hopped over and took her bowl of lotus seed soup. She knelt on the stone couch and started to eat it.
"You're such a spoiled monkey, luckily you didn't have any manners in mother's palace. If you were like this in other situations, people would say you have no manners.”The Empress who had just sat down frowned and looked at Murong Yixiu to reprimand her. Although she had a stern face, Su Xinyan could still see the pampering she had for the Eldest Princess.
Murong Yixiu grinned." Mother, you don't have to worry. This child will not do this in other places. Even father has to be in this Marvelous knot building to see this child."
Murong Yixiu tilted her head, trying to think of a word to describe her personality.
"The true side." Su Xinyan added with a smile.
Murong Yixiu smiled and nodded," Mother, you see, Yan 'er understands me."”
The Empress also raised the corners of her mouth and smiled. Her graceful and luxurious appearance faded away, and she was full of amiability." Only the two of you sing along to make me happy. None of you are serious."”He first pretended to be serious, then changed the topic." If you have the time, you should visit your grandmother at the An Nation Marquis's residence and make her happy.”
In such a harmonious atmosphere, the servant girls could not help but smile in relief.
Time flew by quickly. It was unknown if someone was chatting and laughing with him, but it felt much faster than usual.
The Empress was exempted from paying her respects to the concubines of the various palaces today and had been staying with the two children in the Pavilion of Joyous Markings. The way she was with her two beloved children made it difficult for people to associate her with the Empress, who usually did not speak or smile.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and there were many flowers planted in the courtyard outside the Marvelous Building. In the autumn, there were also many butterflies floating over, adding a lot of vitality to the Brocade Pavilion.
Murong Yixiu had just taken out an unfinished handkerchief for Su Xinyan and asked her to help embroider it. The reason was that she wanted to personally embroider a handkerchief for the Empress to spread the wings of a phoenix. However, her embroidery skills were not good enough. No matter how hard she tried, she could not embroider the wings of a phoenix. Moreover, she did not want to hand it over to the embroiderers in the palace, so there would be no more trouble.
Indeed, there were many women in the palace, and there were many disputes. A handkerchief could also be used as a cover for people to do senseless things.
"What time is it now?" The Empress asked Yuko who was beside her?
Youzi walked to the stone beside the threshold and turned back." Replying to the Empress, it is now the beginning of Si Shi.”
Although Su Xin's embroidery skills were not unparalleled, she was still more proficient than ordinary girls. The girl lowered her head. The embroidery needle in her hand seemed to have a life of its own as it moved back and forth between the silk.
"Yan 'er, drink some tea before you embroider." Murong Yixiu handed Su Xinyan a cup of tea.
It was at this moment that the eunuch beside the Emperor strode into Marvelous knot Pavilion and sang loudly,""The Emperor has arrived!"
