Luoyang Brocade Chapter 247: Meeting (1)

In the middle of the night, heavy snow fell. &

When I got up in the middle of the night, it was still dark, and there was already a thick layer of snow on the ground outside.

While Bai Yu was dressing Ling Jingshu, she whispered worriedly: "Miss, the snow will probably not stop for a while. Traveling by carriage in this weather will be inconvenient!"

Ling Jingshu sighed softly: "There is nothing we can do about it. Not to mention it's snowing today, even if there are hailstones that can kill people, we have to go to the palace."

Bai Yu also knew that complaining was useless, and carefully groomed Ling Jingshu, and told Qiaoyun: "Go to the cabinet and get the mink fur cloak."

When going out in such cold weather, you have to wear thicker clothes.

Qiaoyun responded and quickly came over with a mink fur cloak and put it on for Ling Jingshu. Bai Yu carefully prepared a hand warmer for Ling Jingshu.

Even so, Ling Jingshu couldn't help but flinch the moment she opened the door.

It's really cold today. The biting cold wind mixed with flakes of snow came towards me, and it was biting to the bone.

Ling Jingshu stopped in a hurry and whispered: "Bai Yu, you and Qiaoyun go back to the house quickly, find a thick cloak and put it on before you come out."

Bai Yu felt warm in her heart, but said with a smile: "Miss, don't worry, my slave has thick skin and thick flesh, and is not cold at all."

The lady wears a mink fur cloak when going out, which keeps the wind warm and looks good. There is no maid who is also wearing a cloak. Walking is cumbersome and inconvenient, and it is really embarrassing to look at.

Qiao Yun also smiled and said: "Bai Yu is not too cold. I have practiced martial arts for several years and can withstand the cold better than ordinary people. Miss, don't worry."

Both maids refused. Ling Jingshu had no choice but to give up.

After arriving at the inner hall, Mrs. Sun was already dressed. Her makeup was a bit more solemn than usual, and the emerald headband on her head sparkled.

Ling Jingyan and Ling Jingshu arrived at the inner hall almost at the same time and met Mrs. Sun. Ling Jingyan became more naughty and joked with a smile: "Mom, you are finally willing to take out this set of head jewelry that was kept at the bottom of the box and wear it."

He winked at Ling Jingshu again: "This is my mother's dowry when she got married. Normally, I would not want to look at my mother more than once."

Ling Jingshu laughed dumbly.

Take a closer look. Sun's set of jade head and face jewelry is indeed a rare treasure. The color is emerald green and the carving is exquisite. By no means ordinary.

Sun was in a very good mood and did not care about Ling Jingyan: "Okay, it's getting late, there's no need to delay. Let's set off now!"

……

It's already dawn. The wind and snow have not stopped, and are even getting more intense. The snow on the ground was getting thicker and thicker, and the carriage could not move faster on the road.

Sun entered the palace for the first time in her life. She was afraid of wasting time, so she lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out from time to time. He murmured from time to time: "It snows every year in Beijing, and there has not been such a heavy snowfall in several years."

"With such thick snow on the road, the carriage can only go slowly. At this rate, I'm afraid it will be late..."

"Mom, please stop talking about it." Ling Jingyan felt a headache hearing this. I couldn't help but apologize: "I kept talking all the way, and my ears are almost calloused."

Sun didn’t know whether to be angry or laugh, and glared at Ling Jingyan.

Ling Jingshu smiled and smoothed things over: "It's really not suitable to travel in such weather. It's not just us, but other people entering the palace are the same. Even if it's a little late, the Queen will not be surprised."

This is much more pleasant to hear.

Sun's heart suddenly calmed down, and her restless mood calmed down.

At around midnight, we finally arrived outside the palace gate.

Far away from the palace gate, the carriage stopped.

Sun took a look. I couldn't help but exclaimed: "So many carriages!"

Ling Jingshu also followed Sun's gaze and looked over.

In the open space outside the palace gate, carriages from various prefectures lined up in an orderly manner. The guards guarding the palace gate asked and checked one by one. Only the female family members can get off the carriage and enter the palace gate.

There were many maids standing inside the palace gate. When the female family members entered the palace gate, the maids came over and led the female family members to the palace.

Ling Jingshu looked at it for a while and said: "With this attitude, it will take us half an hour to climb up."

Ms. Sun feels calm now: "We're all queuing up here anyway, so it's not too late. Just wait slowly."

Sure enough, they waited for nearly half an hour before it was their turn.

When I got off the carriage, the snow in the sky finally lightened up a little. Snowflakes fell on my face, giving me a chill.

The guards and maids guarding the gate were both serious and unsmiling. The tall red palace gate and the high walls made people feel inexplicably depressed. Although Ling Jingyan had a lively personality, at this moment she couldn't help but become timid and subconsciously approached Ling Jingshu.

Ling Jingshu noticed something strange about Ling Jingyan, and quietly stretched out her hand to hold Ling Jingyan, comforting her in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, no one will stare at you, don't be so reserved."

Ling Jingshu had been holding the hand stove before, and her hands were still warm.

The panic and anxiety in Ling Jingyan's heart finally subsided a little. Thinking about how Ling Jingshu entered the palace alone several times and was not timid when facing Empress Xu and Wei Jieyu, she couldn't help but admire her.

My mother is right.

Compared with Ah Shu, she is really far behind.

……

There were no words all the way.

Quietly and silently, he followed the palace maid to Jiaofang Hall. However, at this time, he was not qualified to enter the main hall to have an audience. The maid led Sun and others to a side hall to wait.

The side hall is slightly smaller than the main hall, but it can accommodate dozens of people. The furnishings are luxurious and exquisite, with charcoal pots burning in several corners, mixed with the elegant sandalwood, making it warm and very comfortable.

The maids are not qualified to enter the side hall and can only wait in another empty room.

At this time, there were already many people in the side hall.

At a glance, there are a few familiar faces.

Sun glanced around ~IndoMTL.com~ and saw the British princess. The pretty and bright girl next to her was Jiang Rongyue.

Ms. Sun hurriedly led Ling Jingyan and Ling Jingshu forward.

Since the wedding date of Jiang Rongyue and the emperor's grandson was set, the British government became more powerful than before. As soon as Jiang Rongyue and her daughter stood there, everyone gathered around to talk, quite like a star holding the moon.

Sun waited patiently for a moment before she got the chance to chat.

The British princess was also a little surprised when she saw Sun and his party. But his face didn't show anything. He smiled and chatted with Mr. Sun for a few words, lamenting the heavy snowfall that was rare in several years.

After Jiang Rongyue got engaged, her lively temperament calmed down a lot, and she smiled at Sister Ling Jingshu: "I didn't expect you two to come to the palace today."

Ling Jingyan and Jiang Rongyue were more familiar with each other and responded with a smile: "Yes! Yesterday, the Queen specially sent the Fengzhi to the Ling family. We were also surprised when we received the Fengzhi!"

While he was talking, another familiar figure came into view. (To be continued.)
