Although the other party's hairstyle looked heroic, her face had become much rougher, and especially her voice had changed drastically, Su Ningxin recognized her at a glance.
Through the moment of looking at each other, Su Ningxin also knew that the other party recognized her even though she was wearing a veil, especially since Shuanghua had always been with her, and everyone in the palace was familiar with her.
This Lin Yue was the Concubine Yu who had been the concubine of the fifth prince with him, and later entered the palace with the emperor after he ascended the throne. Her real name was Lin Yue. She was the granddaughter of General Zhenguo and the legitimate daughter of General Pingyuan. At that time, the emperor's situation was already established. All brothers missed the throne due to various reasons.
The Lin family originally had an aunt who was a concubine in the palace, but as the emperor and his courtiers came together, the Lin family, which had a heavy army, was worried about arousing the new emperor's suspicion, so they also sent Lin Yue to the fifth prince's residence.
The Lin family had no sons, so they raised Lin Yue as their son since she was a child. Everyone in the palace knew that she was proficient in martial arts. She often practiced martial arts in the courtyard of her palace, and she dreamed of going to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Su Ningxin felt something was wrong when she suddenly passed away due to illness. Later, when he was sent out of the palace, he knew that she might have left the palace with a different identity. Unexpectedly, she actually changed into men's clothes and went to the battlefield.
Now it can be considered that her wish was fulfilled, but it was a pity that she had such a good voice, Su Ningxin silently sighed.
Prince An and Lin Yue talked for a few words outside and then separated. Lin Yue still wanted to go out to the government office to search for assassins in the city, while Prince An had to deal with the large and small officials who came later, whether they were sincere or not. , You can't let your subordinates feel cold, so you don't have much time to spend on greetings.
As for Su Ningxin and Lin Yue, they never had time to say a word.
In fact, at that time, Lin Yue's daughter had her own arrogance, and Su Ningxin was the doting concubine in the harem and could not bear the slightest injustice, so the two of them never got along well, and they almost only had quarrels and physical fights.
However, Su Ningxin personally admired Lin Yue. He was not at all coquettish and pretentious. He only wanted to pursue a career and did not take the emperor into his heart at all. He was a transparent and pursuing person.
I remember that when they were really bored in the palace, they would often make bets for fun, such as who could find the wrong person first and punish Princess Wang to kneel for half an hour, or let out the news that the emperor was going to the imperial garden, and guess how many people would show up in the imperial garden.
Of course, the only three people participating in this kind of bet were the Queen, Gu Mingxi and her. There were countless different kinds of bets.
At that time, those who lost the bet had to be punished by going to Concubine Yu's palace at night to lift stones, away from all eyes and ears. She kept stones of various sizes there to practice arm strength.
It was not an easy task to be silent without alerting anyone, to avoid the maids and eunuchs in Concubine Yu's palace, and finally to lift stones three hundred times.
At that time, they just used this method to practice their martial arts so as not to be useless in the palace. They still miss it a little now.
The queen and the emperor broke off their friendship, and it is unknown whether they have returned to modern times;
Gu Mingxi put down all the power in his hands, and now he is probably being chased around by secret guards;
He also left the palace to marry, changed his name and was no longer Shen Qing;
Even Lin Yue followed Mulan's lead and joined the army, ruining his voice.
Looking back, I find that life in the palace, which I thought was boring at that time, turned out to be extremely happy and comfortable, which is really touching.
Prince An stayed to deal with the follow-up matters, while Su Ningxin and the princess returned to the palace first. Su Ningxin was looking at the pattern of the curtain and thinking about her own affairs along the way. Shuanghua and Shuangbai also recognized Lin Yue. It was Concubine Yu. She knew what Su Ning was thinking and didn't dare to step forward to disturb her.
"Girl, we have arrived at the palace." When the carriage stopped, Su Ningxin still didn't move, Shuanghua stepped forward and said softly.
Su Ningxin turned to look at her and showed a smile to indicate that she was fine.
She opened a gap in the curtain and saw that someone had put down the pedals in the princess' car in front. Su Ningxin didn't waste any more time and got out of the car with the three maids.
Su Ningxin walked forward quickly and reached out to support the princess who got out of the car. The two looked at each other and smiled.
They were the only two owners in the entire motorcade, so they didn't need to worry about anyone else. Su Ningxin supported the princess and walked towards the mansion, followed by several maids, while other servants were trying to arrange the items in the car.
Walking towards Prince Anjun's Mansion, he saw the door of the mansion wide open, and there were many well-dressed and extraordinary-looking women standing at the door, some dressed as women and some dressed as girls.
Su Ningxin had already known about Prince An's palace, and knew that these were Prince An's concubines, concubines, and concubines.
"We sincerely welcome the princess and the Crown Princess back to the mansion." Many women paid their respects together.
"Get up." The princess waved her hand casually.
The leader, Concubine Li, stood up and walked forward. Looking at the convoy behind them that was obviously different from when she left, especially since several carriages were damaged, she asked,
"Princess, why don't you see the prince coming back? What's going on with these carriages? Could it be that something happened?"
The princess frowned slightly, but returned to her question, "We encountered some assassins, and the chaos caused several carriages to be damaged."
"What? There is actually an assassin?" Concubine Li asked in surprise, and then immediately looked frightened. "Then what happened to the prince? Is he injured? Why didn't he come back?"
As she spoke, Concubine Li was minding her own business and said, "No, I want to go find the prince."
As she said that, she walked out quickly. She moved too fast and bumped into the princess's arm. If Su Ning hadn't been quick and quick to hold the princess, she would have fallen directly.
[With such exaggerated acting skills, are you really afraid that others won’t be able to tell that you are just faking it?]
Su Ningxin cursed secretly, her eyes becoming cold and dangerous.
The princess stood still and looked at Concubine Li, who was standing not far away, and scolded, "How presumptuous, Concubine Li, do you still know what rules are and what dignity is?"
A trace of unwillingness flashed in Concubine Li's eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I know that I was wrong. It was all because I was so anxious when I heard that the prince was assassinated, and I asked the princess to punish him."
The princess stared at her for a moment, but didn't say anything. She asked, "You said you were going to come back early to settle down, are you ready?"
"Princess and Crown Princess have worked hard. Everything in the mansion is ready." Concubine Li replied respectfully.
The princess glanced at her and said calmly, "Concubine Li is here to help me during this time."
"This is my duty, I dare not say it's hard work." Concubine Li said with a gentle smile.
Naturally, Su Ningxin would not spoil her, and said sincerely, "Concubine Li, your duty should be to bear children for the prince, so work hard and wish you a son soon."
[Duty? A concubine thinks that it is your duty to be a housekeeper? Why don't you go to heaven?]
