Chapter 19

After a few heavy rains, the weather gradually became cooler. The old lady received a lot of posts just after returning to Beijing. After deliberating for a long time, she decided to bring Gu Yunxi with her.

The old lady has lived in the back house for a long time, and her health is not good. There are not many posts that can invite her.

Two carriages drove back and forth, and Gu Yunxi and the old lady sat in the first carriage.Eldest Miss, Third Miss and Fourth Miss, the three of them were squeezed into a carriage behind.

The second daughter-in-law Lin Ziyan's health is not good, the second wife only has her one daughter, and she doesn't have the intention of climbing the dragon and the phoenix, so she was not allowed to come.

"This time I'm going to Tai Fu Lord Liu's residence, although it's a flower feast, but it actually has the intention of choosing a concubine for the Prince Regent.

The regent is in a high position now, and our Lin family has no intention of clinging to him. You just returned to Beijing, so it happened to take you out this time to show your face. "The old lady in the carriage said ramblingly.

Gu Yunxi understood what the old lady meant. The old lady was worried that the Shangshu's house would be popular and easy to cause trouble, so she had no intention of marrying the regent.

It's just that I don't know if other people in the Lin family think the same way.After all, the emperor was young, so marrying Shen Zhiwei and the same empress was quite a temptation.

Although Liu Taifu had no real power, he was deeply respected by the emperor and the regent.Master Liu's wife, Xue Suixi, and Shen Zhi's mother Xue Suihuan are sisters, she is also Shen Ming's nominal aunt.

Mrs. Shen had a hemorrhage during childbirth, and Shen Zhiren died immediately after giving birth. Mrs. Liu treated Shen Zhi better than her own children.Now that Shen Zhigui is the regent, it is justifiable for Mrs. Liu to choose a concubine for him.

"Old Madam, the Grand Tutor's Mansion is here." Mother Qiu's voice came from outside the carriage.

Gu Yunxi got out of the carriage first, and stood aside, ready to reach out to help the old lady get off the carriage.Unexpectedly, she was squeezed aside by Lin Yiyao who rushed over just after getting off the carriage.

"Grandmother, granddaughter will help you get off the carriage." Lin Yiyao looked at the old lady with caution in her eyes.

Although the old lady was angry with Lin Yiyao, she would not make her faceless in public, so she put her hand on the back of her hand and let her help her out of the carriage.

Seeing that the old lady did not refuse, Lin Yiyao was overjoyed, and turned her head to look at Gu Yunxi provocatively.

Gu Yunxi pretended not to see it, and followed the old lady to Taifu's residence.

"The old lady of the Shangshu Mansion is here." The servants at the gate of the mansion announced, and all the eyes of the people at the mansion's gate were cast over.

Especially those young princes, their eyes fell on Lin Yiyao who was beside the old lady.

The woman's palm-sized face was bright and charming, her crescent eyebrows were drawn back, and her vermilion lips were slightly pursed.Wearing Yan Luo tulle, her figure is extremely graceful, and she walks with a swaying posture, charming and charming.

A golden hairpin with butterflies fluttering on a begonia is inserted at the temple. The body of the hairpin is embellished with precious stones, which further reflects the smooth and creamy skin.While walking, the butterfly on the golden hairpin floats slightly, adding a sense of liveliness.

Lin Yiyao enjoyed the gazes of everyone, and was very proud of herself.

"Brother Yan Jun, your cousin is really a coward." Sun Youcai, the eldest son of Zhongshu Shilang's family, looked at Lin Yiyao with amazement in his eyes.

Li Yanjun frowned slightly and said: "Brother with talent, be careful with your words. Judging a woman's appearance in public is against the words of a sage."

Li Yanjun's father is Anyang Hou Shizi, who is also the younger brother of the eldest lady's mother and compatriots.He is Lin Yiyao's legitimate cousin, who was taught by the Marquis of Anyang himself since he was a child. He is upright but somewhat pedantic.

"I'll just say it casually, brother Yan Jun, don't be angry." Sun Youcai said with a bit of embarrassment on his face.But I am dissatisfied in my heart, if it weren't for your good reincarnation, where would it be your turn to teach me a lesson.

"Brother Youcai just said it in front of us. Brother Yan Jun is too serious." Wu Yu, the son of Doctor Yushi, saw that the faces of the two were not good, and quickly persuaded them.

"Prime Minister's Madam is here." The servant's announcement sounded again, and the eyes of several people were instantly attracted by the woman in yellow beside the Prime Minister's Madam.

Under the curved willow-leaf eyebrows, there is a pair of bright eyes like autumn water, which makes people want to find out.The red lips are even more delicate and charming, without makeup and red.With a slight smile, the shallow dimples are looming, which is really beautiful.

There is only a simple white jade hairpin inserted in the bun, which further shows the temperament of the whole person, like a nine-day fairy, slowly coming towards everyone.

Lin Yiyao, who was originally complacent, suddenly became ugly.

For today's outfit, it can be said that she took great pains and began to prepare early.Unexpectedly, as soon as Yao Yurou appeared, she immediately took away all the eyes that belonged to her, so how could she not be angry!

"Yiyao." Yao Yurou sweetly called out to Lin Yiyao after saluting to the old lady.

The woman's sweet and soft voice, like a drop of morning dew, dripped on the hearts of the men present, causing ripples.

"Sister Yao." Lin Yiyao smiled unnaturally.

"Sister Yiyao is so beautiful today." Yao Yurou praised, the light in her eyes was extremely warm, which made people feel extremely sincere.

"Sister Yao looks good today too." Lin Yiyao praised back, but there was no smile in her eyes.

Yao Yurou knew what Lin Yiyao was thinking, and knew that she would blame herself in her heart, so she whispered in Lin Yiyao's ear:
"Today, I was afraid of stealing your limelight, so I didn't even wear the hairpin. But after all, it's a concubine selection banquet, and I don't want to be too clean, so I wore a white jade hairpin."

"Really?" Lin Yiyao looked Yao Yurou's outfit up and down, compared to her, she was indeed much more casual.

But it's such a simple attire, but it easily compares to her well-dressed self. This is what makes her most angry, as if no matter how hard she tries, she can't compare to her.

"Today is a good day for you to be elected as the regent princess, why are you still depressed?"

Yao Yurou seemed to really not know why Lin Yiyao was unhappy, so she asked intimately.The genuine concern on her face made Lin Yiyao feel like a villain.

"I'm just a little nervous." Lin Yiyao replied with a random reason.

"Don't talk about you, even I'm a little nervous for you. But your ability, there is no problem in being selected." Yao Yurou's sentence highlights her concern for Lin Yiyao, and people can't help but sigh that the two are indeed sisters. deep.

"What will elder sister Yao plan to perform?" Naturally, a talent show is indispensable for the concubine selection banquet, and Lin Yiyao carefully inquired.I dare not relax in the slightest.

After all, Yao Yurou was far superior to her in both talent and appearance, and she was the person who threatened her the most at the concubine selection banquet, so she had to be on guard.

"I'm going to do a dance." Yao Yurou replied.

Lin Yiyao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words. Madam Liu was impatient when she was young, and she liked to dance knives and swords the most. It was not until she married Taifu Liu that she gradually restrained her temper, and she also started to dabble in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting .

But only dancing needs to be practiced since childhood, and I have never delved into it.I'm afraid that no matter how well Yao Yurou dances, Mrs. Liu won't be able to tell.

"Dancing well, sister Yao's dancing posture is the most moving." Lin Yiyao praised.

"You're the one with sweet lips." Yao Yurou pretended not to know what Lin Yiyao was thinking, and sneered.
