Shangyuan is full of lights, which is for Xi. The sky is about to light up but it is not bright yet, it is Xi.

"What's going on?"

Wan Yue told what happened during the meal in a few words. Wan Xing sighed for a while and praised: "The girl is so kind. The imperial concubine deliberately let her nanny squeeze the girl, and the girl is willing to rescue them."

Who is willing? Lin Weixi replied angrily. Being in the palace, Gao Ran is the daughter-in-law of Prince Yan's palace after all. It's hard for Wan Xing and Wanyue to say these words, and she will give them up as soon as she mentions them. Wan Yue continued: "Isn't it? But the prince's anger today was really scary. I was so frightened that I didn't even dare to raise my head. It was only in the name of the girl that the prince could speak more easily. The prince was really strict with the prince, in front of so many people. People don’t show any mercy when reprimanding them.”

"Because of what?"

"It's not just for the eldest princess Shoukang. I didn't expect that King Yan was unkind and filial to the eldest princess."

When Lin Weixi heard this, he added lightly: "It's not that he is filial to the eldest princess Shoukang. Although the eldest princess is the aunt of King Yan, how many princesses are there in the royal family? There are so many uncles, nephews and aunts, and he can't see them all leaving. Close. The one who King Yan was truly filial to was the old King of Yan. When the old King of Yan was not a vassal, he was very jealous of Emperor Shizong. It was Princess Shoukang’s guarantee that the old King of Yan was able to go to the country smoothly. Because of this incident, the King of Yan was able to Extra courtesy to Princess Shoukang's Mansion. Gu Chengyao grew up in the fiefdom. He was at the peak of power in Prince Yan's Mansion since he was born. Everything goes smoothly. How can he understand the origins of the previous generation?"

"So there is still this connection." After hearing this, Wan Xing asked accidentally, "Girl, how do you know about the Shizong Dynasty?"

Lin Weixi's hand holding the tea paused. She knew this because the eldest princess Shoukang said it herself. But Lin Weixi, a lonely out-of-town woman, shouldn't know this. Lin Wei Xi was secretly shocked, but she still replied nonchalantly: "When I was ten years old, my father brought me to the capital for medical treatment. I stayed in the capital for almost half a year and heard what an old man in the alley said."

Wan Yue and Wan Xing both came to Lin Wei Xi's side halfway and knew nothing about Lin Wei Xi's past. They believed Lin Wei Xi's explanation. When Lin Weixi saw that the two maids had been fooled, she breathed a sigh of relief and secretly warned herself not to be so careless again.

If the person who heard these words today was King Yan, it would be over.

Both Wan Yue and Wan Xing came to Beijing for the first time, and they were greeted by the palace upon arrival, which was extremely novel. They were different from Lin Weixi's former maids. They chatted very lively. Lin Weixi's identity was no longer what it used to be, and she would not be demanding of the two maids. Wan Xing and Wan Yue were full of curiosity about the famous Prince Yan's Mansion. Now that they actually followed Lin Weixi to live in Prince Yan's Mansion, it was even more incredible. They lowered their voices and talked about Prince Yan's palace, which only showed the tip of the iceberg, but it was already enough exciting family affairs: "I heard that the current Crown Princess is filling in a house. The lady in front of the Crown Prince also has a surname of Gao, and she is the sister of the Crown Princess!"

Wan Xing covered her mouth in surprise: "Sister?"

"Yes."

Wan Xing showed an expression of amazement: "The prince looks very young, and he is already married to his second wife."

"The prince looks to be only in his twenties. If he hadn't known in advance, who would have guessed that the prince's legitimate son is already seventeen."

"That's right. The prince is only seventeen, so it's too early for the prince to get married."

"It's not that he got married early, it's that the previous crown prince died quickly." Lin Weixi took over the words, even with a smile on his face, "I got married in the first month and died at the end of the year. My sister came in in February of the following year without any delay. The prince’s time.”

Wan Xing and Wan Yue did not expect that Lin Weixi would answer suddenly. They didn't think too much and just sighed: "The previous crown prince was too pitiful."

Is it pitiful? Lin Weixi smiled: "Maybe. But King Yan is right, the world only looks at the results, no one will ask about the reasons. She has lived her life like this, and I am afraid she herself is not to blame. The crown prince and the new crown prince's concubine We are in love with each other, and our love is profound, so it would be better to make room for it as soon as possible."

Wan Yue and Wan Xing looked at each other, wondering why Miss Lin suddenly felt such a pessimistic feeling. Wan Xing is lively. In just one day, she has already inquired a lot of information from the palace: "Actually, it may not be the fault of the previous concubine. I heard someone say today that the previous concubine had very strict management of the palace when she was there. There are rules and regulations, no gossiping, no laziness, and no petty theft on the stove. Princess Yan has been dead for many years, and King Yan has been away fighting all year round. It is inevitable that many rules in the palace are lax. The concubine of the previous life just came. The drastic rectification has good intentions, but it’s a pity that it offends people too much.”

Wan Yue and Wan Xing are outsiders, so they can objectively evaluate the current situation of Prince Yan's Mansion. But for the old slaves in Prince Yan's palace, what Gao Xi did was to disturb their territory. Therefore, in the eyes of these people, Gao Xi was certainly not good at anything. Wait until Gao Xi gets rid of his bad habits over the years. It was over, and she herself collapsed from exhaustion. When Gao Ran came in later, the foundation had been laid. Once Gao Ran took over, everything was going to be great. And Gao Ran was used to being superficial, so she benefited from it and became a little more lax in her rules. With Gao Xi's strictness in front of her in contrast, Gao Ran immediately became a gentle and kind-hearted new mistress, and everyone in the palace talked about her. good.

So that led to the current situation. The two new maids Wan Xing and Wan Yue were able to say "the concubine in the previous life had good intentions", but Gu Chengyao, who was wrapped up by the old servant, saw that Less than.

Lin Weixi didn't expect to hear such words from these two girls. She smiled mockingly to herself. It was really rare that someone thought of her well. Lin Weixi didn't want to talk about these bad things anymore. Now she saw that Gu Chengyao and Gao Ranlang were really in love with each other, but Gao Ran's maid was still publicizing it everywhere with a proud face. God knows, these slaves used to dare not even raise their heads in front of Lin Wei Xi, but now they even raise their tails.

Lin Weixi stood up and said calmly: "This is their family matter after all. It is not good to talk about people's private matters behind their backs. You are not allowed to mention it again in the future."

Wan Yue and Wan Xing looked at each other and both noticed the contradiction in Lin Wei Xi. Miss Lin obviously relies on King Yan, but when it comes to King Yan's family, she is uncharacteristically indifferent. Aiwu is supposed to be like Wucai. Why does Miss Lin have such a contradictory attitude? Wan Yue and Wan Xing didn't know, and they didn't dare to mention it at the moment. Instead, they carefully served Lin Weixi to change clothes: "Girl, today King Yan was angry with the Crown Prince because of Princess Shoukang. He also said that he would take the Crown Prince to the palace in a few days. The eldest princess came to apologize. Do you think this is true?"

"How can it not be true?" Lin Weixi sneered lightly, with full irony, "How dare you despise the eldest princess's house because she has no children? Where did they get the courage? Even if the princess's house really has no successors, but As long as the eldest princess is here, no one in the capital dares to neglect her. Even the King of Yan wants to call Princess Shoukang his aunt, but she, a concubine, can’t wait to jump out, thinking that she can run wild on the territory of the princess’s mansion. It’s really ridiculous. ."

"Girl..."

Lin Weixi also noticed that he was getting excited. She took a deep breath and said, "Prepare your clothes in the next few days. I will go with King Yan to visit the princess mansion."

Wanyue was stunned for a moment. Lin Weixi was still in her filial piety period and usually thanked guests behind closed doors. Why did she think of going to the princess mansion this time? But these are not things that a maid like her should worry about. Wanyue responded in a low voice and went to prepare clothes for Lin Weixi to meet the guests.

Gu Huiyan didn't say anything when he found out about it, and nodded and agreed. When he finally had some free time, he personally took everyone from Prince Yan's residence to visit the eldest princess Shoukang.

When King Yan came in person, he was of course regarded as a distinguished guest and was immediately welcomed into the mansion. Princess Shoukang heard about King Yan's visit and immediately came out to welcome him.

When Gu Huiyan saw Princess Shoukang, he quickly stood up and held her arm: "Auntie, the dog is naughty and has let down your hard work. Now I bother you to come out in person. This is really my sin."

"You must not say that. You are now a prince, and the emperor relies on you for assistance. How can I, an old woman who is half-broken into the earth, dare to be your apology?"

Seeing this, Gu Huiyan didn't want to say anything anymore. He lightly nodded at Gu Chengyao. Gu Chengyao understood what his father meant, so he could only reluctantly walk out and salute the eldest princess Shoukang: "A few days ago, It is the younger generation who is confused and has offended my great aunt. Please forgive me for my sin."

Gu Chengyao is the son of King Yan. Even though Shoukang resents him for neglecting Sister Xi, he cannot ignore King Yan's face. King Yan personally brought his son to apologize. From the perspective of etiquette and morality, King Yan's sincerity was sufficient. Shoukang could only nod his head and said lukewarmly: "The family has no overnight feud. Since you understand That'll be fine. Get up quickly."

Gu Chengyao stood up, and Gao Ran followed him and saluted: "Grandma."

Shou Kang snorted obviously and didn't even look at it. Gao Ran looked aggrieved, and Gu Chengyao felt heartbroken. However, Gu Huiyan was still sitting on it. Even if Gu Chengyao was angry, he did not dare to move at all.

It was also at this time that Shoukang realized that there was one more person. She looked at the girl in the hall who looked as delicate as a New Year picture, and was slightly stunned: "This is..."

Lin Weixi stepped forward and kowtowed three times to the eldest princess Shoukang: "My little daughter, Lin Weixi, please see the eldest princess."

Shou Kang looked at the woman on the ground and his eyes widened unconsciously. Seeing this, Gu Huiyan explained: "I accidentally ambush when the rebellion in the northwest was calmed down, and it was her father who fought to the death to cover my escape. You should have the impression that it was the Zhongyong Marquis some time ago. After the rebellion in the northwest subsided, I saw this little The girl lost her mother when she was young, and now she has lost her father. Living alone was not an option, so I took her to the capital. I brought my junior here to pay your respects today, and she came with me."

After Shoukang listened, the inexplicable throbbing in his heart became more and more obvious. She asked someone to help Lin Weixi up, and looked closely at her for a while. Her warm yet rough hands covered the back of Lin Weixi's hand and asked, "Your name is Lin Weixi, what is your nickname?"

"My little girl lost her mother when she was born. She has no nickname, so everyone in the family calls me Sister Xi."

"Sister Xi." Even the names were exactly the same. Shoukang's eyes suddenly became moist, "Okay, I'll call you Sister Xi. When is your birthday?"

"The fifteenth hour of the first lunar month."

Hearing this moment, Gao Ran's eyes widened obviously, and Gu Chengyao's face also looked a little strange. Seeing this, Gu Huiyan's brows moved slightly, and he asked calmly: "What's wrong?"

Neither Gao Ran nor Gu Chengyao spoke, but the old man from the Princess Mansion wiped away his tears and said, "To King Yan, the birthday of our eldest lady is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but it is during the Youshi period."

Gao Xi has been close to her mother-in-law since she was a child, and the princess family directly calls her eldest lady.

Gu Huiyan was also surprised when he heard this: "What a coincidence."

The same nickname, the same syllables, and even the same birthday. That strange feeling came again. Gu Chengyao looked at Lin Weixi standing in front and suddenly felt a sense of trance.

At that moment, Gu Chengyao almost felt that the person standing in front of him was his late wife and former enemy, Gao Xi.

Lin Weixi thought belatedly that although Gu Chengyao was the only son of King Yan, he didn't spend much time with King Yan. King Yan spent most of his life in the army, fighting in the south and north, and his achievements were such that even a child on the street could talk a few words. However, he did not have much time to stay in King Yan's palace, and even less time was left for Gu Chengyao.

Seeing Gu Chengyao's silence, Zhou Maocheng understood after a second thought. He sighed in his heart and pretended to be relaxed and said: "The wars in various places have been calmed down. If there are any small troubles in the future, there is no need for the prince to take action. This When the second prince comes to Beijing, he will surely be stable for a long time."

The late emperor was left alone on his deathbed, and since the emperor was young, the capital could not be left unguarded. If the rebellion in the northwest had not been serious last time, and the new dynasty needed to quickly put down the rebellion and threaten the world, King Yan would not have personally led the army to the expedition. However, after the news of Duohulati tribe's deeds became known, no one would dare to challenge the authority of King Yan and the suzerain for a long time.

Gu Chengyao breathed a sigh of relief when he thought of this. It was really rare to be able to live in the same house with his father for such a long time.

Gao Ran had already come back from dealing with things at this time. She was walking a little anxiously. When she saw Gu Chengyao standing in the middle of the yard and Lin Weixi standing not far away, Gao Ran's pupils suddenly shrank.

Gao Ran smiled calmly, greeted Gu Chengyao with a smile, and then naturally stood next to Gu Chengyao, as if he were a hostess. Lin Weixi couldn't help but sneer in her heart when she saw this. She was disdainful in her heart, and it was inevitable that there was some coldness and looseness on her face.

Zhou Maocheng came in with Gu Chengyao. He came in mainly for Lin Weixi. Now that people have seen him and the princess has returned, Zhou Maocheng, a foreigner, cannot continue to stay in the inner house of Prince Yan's mansion, so he left immediately.
