Yulan stayed in the palace for two or three hours before Ye Minzhao reluctantly sent her out. He had repeatedly told her to come to the palace to see him when she had time. Yulan even blocked the door of Jingyang Palace. He didn't go in. In private, Yu Lan secretly let out a sigh of relief. He didn't know why, but even though the magnificent Concubine Hui was warm, thoughtful and polite, Yu Lan always felt uncomfortable when she was around her.

As spring goes and autumn comes, the days flow by like water. The life of the ancient boudoir is boring. It is nothing more than going to class every day, writing and embroidering, and finding a few close friends to write, play chess and drink tea when there is nothing to do. I don’t know why. It's actually winter.

Yulan's little life became more and more enjoyable as time passed. She read Buddhist scriptures and told jokes every day. The old lady became more and more inseparable from Yulan. Even the old man summoned her to Songfeng Bookstore from time to time. With the support of these two old people, the eldest lady became more and more inseparable from Yulan. Although he still didn't want to see her, he didn't dare to treat her too harshly. The servants below were even more respectful to her.

Even Qian's mother, Xiaoyu, Xiaoyue and others also benefited from it, and they felt that their lives were much more comfortable and smooth.

After taking off her underskirt and changing into a coat, Yulan was afraid of the cold, so she huddled in the house and refused to come out every day. There was a warm charcoal fire burning in the house, and this time the food supplied was no longer inferior and shoddy that would smoke as soon as it was burned. Coal.

On this day, Yulan took Ruyu to Ji Chunxuan to visit the fifth wife. It is said that time is the best medicine to heal the pain. In more than five months, the fifth wife also slowly recovered from the pain of losing her son. Come here. The fifth master comforted me in every possible way, and he took the first credit. Recently, the two of them have been busy creating a "new villain" plan. Well... it was the fifth wife who told Yulan herself.

Although she was still a few months shy of turning 14, Yulan was calm and steady, and as they gradually got along with her, the fifth wife often felt that her mind was more mature than hers, and she gradually began to treat her niece as a close friend.

Seeing Yulan rubbing her little hands as soon as she walked in, Mrs. Wu personally stuffed a hand stove for her. "Sit down quickly! Sit down quickly! Look at your little face, which is so cold and red!" Xiaoyu put on her thick felt cloak. After taking off the clothes, the fifth wife ordered tea, fruit and snacks to be served, and then the maids were asked to retreat.

Yulan took a sip of tea and felt that her whole body was freed from the cold feeling. She smiled and said, "How are you doing, Aunt Five, recently?"

The fifth wife sighed, touched her belly and said with some depression: "It's good, there's nothing wrong with it, it's just that there's no movement in my stomach..."

Although Yu Lan had never been pregnant in her previous life, she had seen a lot of such things. She comforted her: "Fifth Aunt, please don't be anxious. This kind of thing cannot be rushed. You and Fifth Uncle are in their prime. Your body has been well maintained, and it will only be a matter of time before you give me a chubby little brother. Maybe the fate has not come yet..." After some consolation, the fifth wife finally frowned.

Yulan couldn't help but warned him a few more words: "You must keep a close eye on my fifth uncle. During this period of time, he must not be allowed to go out to drink again!" The last child was born with deficiencies, and this time Yulan was born early. I gave Mrs. Wu some advice. Although she couldn’t get her to take folic acid, men must pay attention to this aspect.

The fifth wife smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry! Recently, many of your colleagues have asked your uncle to have a drink, but he has turned them away."

Yu Lan couldn't help but glance at the fifth wife with envy: "Aunt Wu is a lucky one! Uncle Wu is really good to you!" It's absolutely impossible to be able to do the job of the fifth master these days without even having a concubine. It's rare.

The fifth wife's face turned red when Yulan said it, and her face glowed with happiness. Thinking of the topic just now, she couldn't help but ask again: "You said you are not allowed to drink alcohol... is there any harm in that matter? Master

After all, as an official, socializing outside is inevitable..."

Yulan thought to herself that something that modern science and technology has proven long ago could be fake. "This is what I saw in an ancient medical book. I would rather believe it than believe it!"

The fifth wife nodded repeatedly. When it comes to children, she should be a hundred times more cautious.

Mrs. Wu couldn't help but put her finger on her forehead: "You are a child, you know so much!"

Yulan stuck out her tongue: "I haven't told anyone else yet!" As a girl who has not yet left the court, Yulan said this is really inappropriate, but she has a great affection for the fifth wife, and the fifth wife does not regard her as a child.

That's why she would tell her this.

The two chatted about other things. After all, the fifth wife was the daughter-in-law of the chief minister. Even if she didn't like to be public, there were always some social events that she had to go to on weekdays. She also knew a lot about some things in the aristocratic circle in the capital, so she chose

He talked to Yu Lan about some things in a nonchalant manner.

These should originally be the responsibilities of the eldest wife.

Yulan is nearly fourteen years old. In the past six months, in order to promote the four girls, the eldest wife has taken Yulan to attend many banquets of famous nobles. Yulan is low-key and low-key, but there is no one in the circle of noble ladies in the capital who is not sharp-eyed.

, everyone knows that there is a good girl in the Yang family who is warm-hearted, gentle and decent.

These days, Yu Fei's marriage has been delayed, but quite a few ladies have come to visit, and they want to marry the seventh girl. On the one hand, the eldest wife is not proud of you (Yu Lan has raised her well, and all the credit belongs to the eldest wife).

On the other hand, she was a little jealous that Yulan had stolen the eighth girl's limelight. Besides, she didn't like any of these people, so she naturally declined them all politely.

It's just that the fourth girl is already sixteen years old, and if the marriage can't be finalized, it will really be delayed. Therefore, not only is Yu Fei so anxious that her whole body is on fire, but the old lady is also extremely dissatisfied with the eldest lady.

The fifth wife told Yulan a breaking news: "Princess Jin left at noon yesterday!"

"How could it be?" Jin Princess Bai has been bedridden for several months, and everyone in the capital knows it. "...The princess is only in her twenties, right?" Jin Wang Ye Yichen Yulan has met him several times, and it seems that

She is only twenty-three or fourteen years old, so his princess must be about the same age as him.

In the past few months, Yulan went to the palace once or twice, but she never met Ye Yichen again. Thinking of that clear and tall man as sharp as a knife who became a widower at a young age, Yulan's heart rose a little

Sympathy, of course, more sympathy is reserved for the princess who died young even though she had never met her.

The fifth wife suddenly sighed: "It's really hard to be the royal daughter-in-law!"

Yulan was startled and met the fifth wife's gloomy eyes: "Didn't she die of illness?"

The fifth wife lowered her voice and said: "There are rumors outside that Princess Jin asked someone in the palace to... poison her to death!"

Yulan's expression suddenly changed. How many lives had been sacrificed for that dragon chair, for those powers. People in the royal family are born with incredible wealth, why do they have to go further and seek the supreme authority? What about people?

, always fighting, Yulan thought of Ye Yichen, Ye Minzhao, Ye Fengqi and even Ye Minchun, and felt mixed emotions in her heart.

If she had the choice, she would never marry into the royal family.

After coming out of Jichunxuan, Yulan put away the feeling of sadness. Although Ye Yichen had met her a few times and spoken to her a few times, she was too far away from her to waste her feelings on irrelevant people and make herself miserable.

Depressed. If sympathy can be considered an emotion.

When I arrived at Green Jingzhai, I met the eldest lady’s maid, Xiao Tao, at the door. Xiao Tao had been promoted from a second-class girl to a first-class girl, but she was much more respectful to Yulan than when she first met. “Seventh girl, slave.

I was about to go to Jichunxuan to see you, and my wife asked you to go to Yiningju."

Yulan nodded politely to her and asked, "Sister Xiaotao, my wife called me over, what's the matter?"

Xiaotao answered quickly: "The commander of Jinyiwei, Mrs. Ma, and the governor of Beizhen, Mrs. Niu, came to visit my wife. They were drinking tea in the main hall. Commander Ma's daughter, Ma Yunniang, also came. My wife asked the girl to come over and meet the guests." Jinyiwei.

There are only horses and cows in it, which Yulan really finds a bit funny.

However, she was very happy when she heard that Ma Yunniang was coming and asked, "Did the fourth sister, the fifth sister, and the eighth sister and their wives all call?"

"My wife called the fourth and eighth girls at the beginning. But the fifth girl never got anyone to call her!"

After hearing this, Yulan pondered for a moment and said, "Sister Xiaotao, please come inside and have a cup of tea. I'll change my clothes and follow you to the main courtyard right away!"

Xiao Tao moved her mouth. The eldest wife originally ordered Xiao Tao to take Yulan to Yining Residence in the main courtyard "immediately", but Yulan's words were gentle but very firm. Xiao Tao wanted to say: "Don't change clothes, go right away"

." But he was never able to say it out loud.

Yulan returned to the house and asked Xiaoyu and Xiaoyue to quickly change into a light-colored dress. She also took off all the jewelry on her head, except for a gold hairpin inserted sideways. Xiaoyue said dissatisfied: "

When a girl goes out to meet guests, why should she make herself look ugly?"

Xiaoyu was afraid that Yulan would be angry, so she quickly said: "You are talking nonsense again! Girls are naturally beautiful, and they will look good no matter what they wear."

Yu Lan sighed and said: "Our Yang family is the leader of Qingliu and has never had any contact with Jinyiwei. Mrs. Ma and Mrs. Niu's sudden visit may be because of the wedding of the fourth sister. These days, we have already offended the fourth sister.

She's unhappy. Why bother her again today?"

Xiaoyue said dissatisfiedly: "I would say that the fourth girl is really stingy. The girl is busy helping her, but not only is she not grateful to the girl, but she resents the girl... It's not the girl's fault that she is good-looking!" Yufei looked unhappy at this time.

Said, but Yulan could faintly feel her alienation and dissatisfaction.

Yulan said: "Don't mention this again. No matter what you say, the fourth sister is still my sister. As a sister, I only hope that her wishes will come true and that she will marry a good man in the future."

Xiaotao had just had a night of tea in the hall when Yulan was already dressed, "Sister Xiaotao, let's go!" Xiaotao saw her simple and low-key dress, and a thoughtful expression flashed in her eyes.

When we arrived at Yiningju, there were indeed two women in gorgeous clothes sitting in the eldest lady's room. The eldest lady came in when she saw Yulan dressed up so plainly. A strange look flashed in her eyes. She said with a smile.

"This is the seventh girl of our family!" He then introduced the two ladies to Yulan with a smile. The round-faced woman sitting next to Ma Yunniang looked exactly like her, and he knew it was Mrs. Ma at a glance.

Another tall woman is Mrs. Niu.

Yu Lan straightened his hands and saluted, smiling gently. Mrs. Ma took Yu Lan's hand and said, "Queen, Yun Niang praised me a hundred and eight times. You are really an iconic person."

Yulan sat next to him and asked in detail. Yulan lowered his head slightly and answered one by one. Mrs. Ma talked for a while and then said to the eldest lady: "Madam, your daughter is really well taught, one by one.

Pretty and polite. But why has such a nice girl, Mrs. Yang, been hiding all this time? If my Yun Niang hadn’t called out to see her, you wouldn’t have been willing to call her out!"

The eldest lady also smiled awkwardly. As Yu Lan grew older, he became more beautiful and elegant, and his temperament was dignified. Compared with Yu Xin's arrogance and Yu Fei's petty arrogance, he was a judge of superiority.

The eldest wife gradually got some taste, and took Yufei on a blind date. In the end, the wife didn’t like Yufei but often fell in love with Yulan. The eldest wife hadn’t decided yet what kind of person she wanted to find for Yulan.

Her husband's family recently had to hide her in the snow temporarily to prevent her from having trouble with her during the rainy season.

Sure enough, Mrs. Niu's eyes lit up immediately when she saw Yulan. She wished she could change seats with Mrs. Ma immediately. She did come here for another purpose today. Ma Yunniang has been very close to Yulan recently. Her family is a family of military commanders, and she has a hard time disciplining her daughter.

Not as strict as Yang's house. She could go to Yang's house three or four times in a month. Yulan liked her innocent and unpretentious nature, and also told her some things about the sisters.

Back home, Ma Yunniang talked to Mrs. Ma, and Mrs. Ma immediately became interested. The second son of Mr. Niu, the governor of Beizhen, had also reached the age of marriage. Mrs. Niu had always wanted to find a lady from a wealthy family, but she and Yu

Like Fei, if you can't achieve anything high or low, you'll always be at odds with each other.

Although Master Niu is half a level lower than Master Ma, he still manages the "Prison Prison" and is under the direct command of the emperor. Master Ma has no authority to control him. Master Ma also wants to get along well with this subordinate who is not considered a subordinate.

After hearing about it, she urged Mrs. Ma to go there in person to see if she could facilitate a marriage.

So this is what Mrs. Niu came to visit today. When she first met the fourth girl, Mrs. Niu felt that this child was so-so. Although her appearance was not top-notch, it was passable, and her demeanor was a bit stingy, but she was just passable. She did not need to be a host to get married.

After all, she is the granddaughter of the chief minister, and her status is there. Mrs. Niu has already revealed to the eldest wife that she wants to get married.

Who would have thought that as soon as the rain came, Mrs. Niu would immediately focus all her attention on her. Asking questions, she wanted to swallow her in one gulp. If she could marry such a girl, she would definitely be a millionaire.

Very satisfied. But I left Yufei and Yuxin aside.

Yuxin ate the cakes boredly. Anyway, with her status, there was no way that the second son of a third-grade Beizhen governor could marry the granddaughter of the chief minister. Yufei lowered her head, with a trace of jealousy and anger flashing in her eyes.

This was no longer the case twice. Her hatred towards Yu Lan had slowly accumulated and reached a stage where it was about to explode.

Yulan's scalp is numb. She is dressed like this, why are you two ladies still like this? Can't you just ignore me as nothing?

She quickly winked at Ma Yunniang. Ma Yunniang was confused and interjected: "Yulan, why have you grown taller again?" Yulan's head was covered with black lines.

After finally finding an opportunity, Yu Lan found an excuse to get a famous post and asked Yun Niang to appreciate it together. The two ladies pulled her and talked for a few more words, and then they escaped with Yun Niang.

After Yulan left, Mrs. Niu was obviously a little less talkative. The eldest wife chatted with them for a while, and then the two ladies stood up and left. The little maid went to Lujingzhai to invite Ma Yunniang, but Yunniang had to stay in Lujingzhai.

After talking to Yulan for a while, the two ladies left first.

As soon as she returned to Qiuxiang Pavilion from the main room, Yu Fei threw the cup: "But a bitch was born from a bitch, but she has developed a charming temperament. She always steals the limelight from others every time she appears. She is

She deliberately doesn’t want to make things easier for me! If I gain power in the future, I will definitely not let her go!”

Her personal maid Cuizhu asked carefully: "Mrs. Niu's house..."
