Gu Qiqing was stunned.
Si Muzhen at the side suddenly had an excited smile on his face.
She had been trying to encourage Gu Qiqing to get closer to the palace these few days, but Gu Qiqing was unwilling, which made it difficult for her to move forward.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the people in the palace, and the imperial concubine herself, actually summoned Gu Qiqing into the palace.
It's just that someone brought me a pillow when I fell asleep!
She smiled and said, "That's just right."
"..."
Gu Qiqing was still a little hesitant at first, but when he heard her say that, he turned his head to look at her, and saw Si Muzhen smiled and said, "You can just go to the palace, thank you for the prescription."
Gu Qiqing's face turned red all of a sudden.
And Wang Ma on this side also realized that the house where the young lady was treated was actually from the imperial palace.
It was inconvenient for her to say more, and hurriedly helped the young lady to change her clothes and freshen up.
Si Muzhen also hurried back to change clothes, and changed into a bright dress. When Gu Qiqing walked to the door and saw that the carriage outside had been waiting for a long time, Si Muzhen also came over.
She said, "Sister, you—"
Si Muzhen smiled and said: "I still don't trust you, let's go into the palace with you."
"..."
Gu Qiqing hesitated.
Originally, she was completely healed and didn't need anyone to accompany her anymore, but Si Muzhen had already changed her clothes and came here on her own initiative, so it's hard for her to ask someone to go back.
That, after all, is her sister.
However, she felt faintly in her heart that Si Muzhen was very eager to enter the palace, and there was a little uneasiness in her words.
After all, Gu Qiqing was still young, so it was difficult to make decisions without an adult by his side when encountering such a thing.
At this time, the little lady who came out with the car listened to Fu Xiao and said: "The imperial concubine also said that if Miss San wants to accompany Miss Qi Qing into the palace, it is also possible, so I can take care of her."
Hearing him say the same thing, Gu Qiqing had nothing to say.
And Si Muzhen's eyes lit up.
He smiled in his heart: This is just right!
So, the two got into the carriage together, and soon, the driver staggered towards the palace.

Nan Yan sat by the window.
Today's weather is just right, the sun slantingly shines on her body from the window, it is a bit warm, holding Xinping in her arms, listening to her non-stop urging.
"Mother and Concubine, why isn't Miss Sister coming?"
"Is she coming or not?"
"Is she not coming?"
Nan Yan couldn't help laughing and said: "You, are you suffering from lovesickness? Why don't you miss your mother and concubine like you miss your little sister?"
After hearing this, Xinping blinked his eyes: "What is lovesickness?"
Nan Yan stretched out her hand and pinched her face: "You will know when you grow up."
Just as she was talking, it was reported outside that Miss Gu's family had entered the palace.
Nan Yan sat up, and when she looked up, she saw two figures walking in from the outside, Gu Qiqing, who was neatly dressed, and Si Muzhen, who was exquisitely made up.
There was a little smile in her eyes.
Two people have already walked in and bowed down to her: "The daughter of the people pays homage to the imperial concubine."
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Get up, why should the whole family be so polite?"
Only then did the two get up.
Xinping couldn't wait to rush over to save Gu Qiqing: "Miss sister!"
Gu Qiqing also hugged her with a smile, and said, "Your Highness, the girl hasn't greeted you yet."
As he spoke, he helped her to stop, and still bowed respectfully to her first.
Nan Yan watched from the side, smiled and nodded.
Although Gu Qiqing has just reached the age of Ji, she should be young and ignorant, but her behavior is graceful, her advances and retreats are measured, she is indeed very likable, it can be seen that Gu Tingqiu has taught this child very well.
After all, she is a lady from a famous family.
Compared with when I was a child, I looked like a wild child, not much better.
Although her own life was unsatisfactory since she was a child, Nan Yan not only did not feel jealous or resentful when she saw a little girl who was cared for and grew up like this, but was willing to take care of her.
So, he smiled at Gu Qiqing: "You don't know, this girl has been nagging you every day for the past two days, and she must come to the palace to accompany her, as if you have given her a magic potion."
Gu Qiqing bowed his head in embarrassment and said, "Your Majesty just made fun of the girl."
Nan Yan smiled.
He asked again, "Is the injury on your foot better?"
Gu Qiqing hurriedly said: "If you go back to your mother, everything will be fine."
"That's good. I'm still worried that you will be injured and call you back into the palace again. It will make your injury worse."
"Thank you for your concern, ma'am."
Nan Yan smiled, then turned to look at Si Muzhen.
To say that among the daughters of the Si family, Si Muzhen is the best-born, more beautiful than Simulan, more delicate than herself, and she is young, with fair skin and innocent demeanor, she always looks like a kind of girl. The delicacy of jade dolls.
What's more, she can dress up, with exquisite makeup and gorgeous clothes, and she is even more smart.
Nan Yan smiled at her and said, "You are here too."
Si Muzhen said: "Minnv is worried that Qi Qing's injury will not heal, so she will accompany her into the palace."
"you-"
Nan Yan dragged out her voice, causing Gu Qiqing and Si Muzhen to raise their heads to look at her, but she smiled slightly: "You are very careful."
Si Muzhen lowered her head: "Thank you, Madam, for your compliment."
They chatted for a while, and the Imperial Dining Room brought some exquisite pastries. Nanyan smiled and said, "I called you over early in the morning. The road is bumpy, and I must be hungry. Let's eat something first."
"yes."
"yes."
So, everyone followed her to the table and sat down.
On the table were goose oil rolls with pine flesh, hibiscus cake, and crabapple crisps. Each dish was exquisite, beautiful and full of fragrance, but Gu Qiqing ate very restrainedly.
But Si Muzhen's mind was not on eating at all.
Nan Yan took a piece of pastry and ate it slowly, looking at them, a flash of light flashed in her eyes.
The manpower at the table was only calm, and they ate several pieces with one heart and one mind.
After eating, drinking tea, and resting for a while, Xin Ping wanted to go to the Royal Garden to play, and stretched out his hand to hold Gu Qiqing's sleeve and swayed: "Miss, come with me."
Gu Qiqing was naturally willing.
Nan Yan smiled and said: "Be careful, don't come back like a mud monkey again."
"My son knows."
As Xinping said, he happily slid down from the stool, and took Gu Qiqing by the hand to go outside.
But at this moment, Simuzhen also got up and said: "Imperial concubine, can the civilian girl go with them?"
"..."
Nan Yan raised her head and looked at her.
I saw Si Muzhen smiling and said: "The daughter of the people also wants to accompany Her Royal Highness to walk around."
Aunt Tongyun and Nianqiu on the side frowned when they heard this.
However, he didn't speak immediately.
Everyone looked at Nanyan.
