Chapter 86 The concubine's sister went to Beijing to visit her sister

Time flies. Winter has passed. I haven't enjoyed the good days of spring and flowers for a few days, but it's summer again. The summer in the capital is very hot. At this time, there are very few dignitaries who go out. There is nothing special who wants to come out to suffer and enjoy it at home.

However, ordinary people are not so fortunate. Even in the capital, it is much better than other places, but those who should do business have to do it, and those who should be busy on the street have to be busy.

On this day, people came and went at the south gate of the capital as usual, and the gatekeepers hid in the shade to check the people who came and went according to the routine. All kinds of people, some wear good cotton clothes, and some are rags and rotten shirts. All of them don't want to turn to be themselves early. They can finish things early and go to rest in the shade and drink a bowl of water.

At this time, people found that there was a beautiful girl standing by the wall. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a good Biluo brocade. At first glance, she was a young lady of a large family. The hair on her temples was slightly wet with sweat, and she looked impatient. The two maids around her are not old and beautiful. One is holding an umbrella to shade the lady's sun, and the other is busy fanning. There were three guards not far behind him.

"Zhu Lian, go to the front and see if the people who greet us have arrived." Ling Yuechan took out the silk-embroidered handkerchief in her sleeve and wiped a handful of sweat on her forehead. She was extremely impatient.

The maid named Zhu Lian took a few steps and looked at it expectantly, but there were people everywhere, and there was no welcoming team in the palace. I couldn't, so I had to turn around and report regretfully, "Miss, I haven't arrived yet."

Seeing that Ling Yuechan was about to get angry, Bihe on the other side advised, "Miss, don't worry. It's about Jieyu who didn't know that we were arriving at this time, so the people sent out were late. Why don't we go to the teahouse in the city? Take a sip of tea and have a good rest.

"You bitch! What kind of little master? That should have been my position. If it hadn't been plotted by Ling Xiao's bitch, the person who enjoys thousands of favors in the palace at this moment should be me!" Ling Yuechan suddenly looked at Bihe angrily as if she had been scratched by a wild cat. If it hadn't been for the many people around her now, she would have slapped rudely.

Bi He was so scared that he hurriedly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "Miss, I know what's wrong!"

Ling Yuechan stared at the city and gritted her teeth and said, "I have sent someone to tell her in advance. How could she not know that I was here at this time? Even if you don't know, you should come here and wait as soon as possible, right? You asked me to wait for her!" The more she said, the more angry she became, especially when she thought of the hardships and shocks along the way, she said hatefully, "I just can't go in. I just want to wait for her to meet me!"

With so many years of arrogance and excessive favor, Ling Yuechan has long not remembered her true identity. She completely forgot that the Qianxi Dynasty was a respected imperial dynasty. In her eyes, Ling Xiao was so mean, despicable and dirty that it was this woman who took everything from her.

Originally, she was already preparing the things she wanted to bring when she went to Beijing. The brocade dress of Jinrongfang, the gouache and rouge of the rouge house, the pin ring jewelry of Bijiao Pavilion... One by one, they all carried her many good expectations for the future, but those were destroyed by Ling Xiao!

How she hoped that Ling Xiao would die without a favor in the palace, and even die in his life. In that way, she would be more relieved! As long as she said this, the father asked her to marry the ordinary people outside. Even if she didn't deserve her, she would admit it. How happy she was when she first heard that the situation in the palace was going as she expected.

However, just when she no longer looked forward to the beautiful prosperity in the palace, the news came that Ling Xiao was favored and even promoted to Jieyu!

For Ling Yuechan, this is simply a bolt from the blue. Over the years, the struggle between her and Ling Xiao seems to have become a habit. Even if she didn't like it, when she saw Ling Xiao take it away, she would have a strong interest in it. What's more, it's a favorite concubine, a glorious imperial concubine!

Now, she is going to take back what she owns!

Zhu Lian looked at the poisonous sun, and it was almost noon. Before they had eaten, they quietly wiped the sweat on their heads and looked at the red-faced lady. It was really bitter. Well, if only the carriage were still there, it wouldn't be enough to wait under the sun.

Miss is really. Why do you have to fight for it? Isn't this tossing yourself? She is just herself. She also implicates them as maidservant. The sun is getting higher and higher. They are tired, hungry, thirsty and hot, and they have to help her with fans and umbrellas.

At the same time, she unconsciously resented Ling Xiao even more. If she had sent someone to pick them up earlier, she would not have suffered this in the sun now.

"Miss, there is also a steamed bun. You can put it on the mat first." Bihe took out a steamed bun from the bag and handed it to Yue Chan.

"Take it away! Who wants to eat this thing? He was hit to the ground by Yuechan with one hand.

Looking at the steamed bun that rolled twice on the ground before stopping at the root of the wall, Bihe swallowed sadly, but did not dare to say anything. After a while, the steamed bun was picked up by the rags, and he picked it up and put it in his mouth.

Yue Chan rolled her eyes and looked disgusted. However, this also reminded her of her appearance not long ago.

By the way, Yue Chan's trip is also thrilling. When she left home, in addition to Zhu Lian and Bihe's two maidservant, she had five guards with her, but now there were only three left, and she was almost in trouble. Thinking of this, she was still afraid for a while, and at the same time, she was deeply angry.

Originally, Ling Guan did not allow her to come to Beijing this time. After all, for him, he already had a daughter who was favored in the palace, and it didn't matter whether Yue Chan entered the palace or not. Moreover, he is not stupid. He also thought that if Yue Chan enters the palace and competes with Ling Xiao, there is nothing else. He is afraid that he may get a sniper and a clam to compete with each other and get benefits from others, then he will not be worth it.

However, Yue Chan and Qi Luo persuaded him together. The reason was that Ling Xiao has been favored so far, and his official position has not moved at all, and there is no sign of promotion at all. It can be seen that Ling Xiao didn't plan to seek a future for his father at all. Maybe he would stimp him back.

When he said this, he moved Ling Guan. After all, he still knows what he did to his direct daughter. It is impossible for Ling Xiao to deliberately revenge. Although Shen Murou is still in Ling's house, it's not a matter to take her hostage. It's better to send another little daughter she has always loved.

Now that he had made up his mind, Qiluo helped Zhang Luo prepare and prepared for more than a month. Yue Chan was impatient to get ready, which was delayed until now.

Before leaving, Ling Guan also selected five guards from his magistrate's guards to escort Yue Chan to Beijing. After all, it takes almost a month to get from Phoenix to the capital, and it's too dangerous for several women to go on the road. He also asked Yue Chan to take the document with the seal of the magistrate as a certificate to contact the palace after entering Beijing.

These five guards are all good at it. At first, under their escort, the journey has been smooth, and they are about to arrive in the capital. Unexpectedly, just when it was more than ten miles away from the capital, Yue Chan and her party met the robbers!

It's not far from Beijing, and people's life is not bad. No one expected to encounter robbers. On the way, they passed through several relatively remote places, and the guards were very cautious. Finally, they were about to reach the feet of the emperor. Who would have thought of such a thing?!

This is probably the shrewdness of those bandits. They know that passers-by are the easiest to slack off at this time, so they just take action here. Of course, if Yue Chan and others walk on the official road, it is unlikely to encounter this kind of trouble, but because she is eager to go to Beijing to touch Lingxiao's unlucky head, she insisted on a shortcut, so she was unlucky first.

Fortunately, the guards were loyal and powerful, and they resisted desperately, which made Yue Chan and the others escape. But even so, two of the guards still couldn't escape, and I don't know what happened later. Of course, this is not within Yue Chan's consideration.

She and the two maids escaped. The carriage and some valuables were all lost. In a hurry, they took away a burden of dress and the painting. Fortunately, it is not far from the capital, and there are also some jewelry left on my body, which can barely be used as the entanglement of the last journey. I can't eat enough on the road and sleep well. I worked so hard to see the gate of the capital.

In fact, she can send someone to tell Ling Xiao about this matter in advance. No matter what she thinks, even if it is for her own reputation, she will not ignore her. Or it's not impossible for her to take Ling Guan's documents to the local government for help, but she doesn't want to be known about it.

First, she doesn't want Ling Xiao to laugh at her after knowing it, and secondly, if she, an official lady, is known to have been a robber, but I don't know what unpleasant will come out. She is the one who wants to go to the palace to be a imperial concubine. How can she allow this kind of thing to ruin her future? Even if it's only one of the possibilities, she won't allow it! It's hard to say anything else, but she still has this brain and scheism.

Surely, I saw hope in a few days, but after Yuechan sent a guard to the city with documents to deliver the letter, Yuechan stayed outside the city and insisted on waiting for Ling Xiao to come out of the city to welcome him. She is already frightened and exhausted, and now she still has to hold on here. How can she not hate?

Of course, these two accounts are naturally counted on Ling Xiao.

At this time, it was a cool breeze in the Qiluan Hall. The windmill on the ice tank rotated slowly, bringing a trace of coolness, and spreading to all corners of the palace with the fragrance of orchids on the side.

Ling Xiao is holding a small silver fork and putting a piece of crispy and white melon in his mouth.

"Miss, the second lady should be in the city now." Qingwu served on one side, looked at the sky outside, and asked.

"This year's day seems to be very hot." Ling Xiao chewed the melon, and his mouth was full of sweet juice. He sighed.

Qingwu smiled and said, "The people sent out have been waiting in a restaurant in the South Gate for a long time. As long as they see the second lady, they will immediately welcome them into the palace. As for..." At this point, she paused for a moment. "As for whether they enter or not, it's not our business."

Ling Xiao looked at the bright sun outside the screen window, lowered his head and continued to eat the melons on the plate. These were all soaked in honey and put them in his mouth. It was really fragrant.

A concubine went to the palace to visit her eldest sister as Jieyu, but there was no reason to ask her eldest sister to come out of the city to welcome you! Even if only a few servants are sent out.
