In the afternoon, the general's wife brought her second daughter to Qingge Hall.
The general's maiden name is Xue. She is now thirty-three years old. She is dignified and beautiful, and looks like a very gentle woman.
The Xue family gave birth to two daughters and a son, as well as several concubines and concubines from concubines.
The person she brought into the palace today was the second daughter Xiao Zhilan.
As for the eldest daughter, it was Xiao Xixi who had already married into the East Palace.
As the general's wife, Mrs. Xue has a fourth-rank official life, but Xiao Xixi's status as a good Di is from the third-rank, which is just one level higher than her.
Xue Shi and Xiao Zhilan stood far away from Xiao Xixi and bowed their knees.
"The ministers, women, ministers and daughters meet Xiao Liangdi."
Xiao Xixi wants to go to help the Xue family.
Xue Shi seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly pulled her little daughter back.
It looked like he was avoiding the flood and beasts.
Xiao Xixi stopped, the smile on her face faded, and she said, "Mother doesn't need to be more polite, there are no outsiders here, you can do whatever you want."
Xue Shi knew that his reaction just now was too great.
She hurriedly cleaned up her expression, and said politely and politely, "The court lady doesn't dare."
Xiao Zhilan hid behind her mother and looked at her sister curiously.
Xiao Zhilan just turned ten years old this year, her face is chubby, her eyes are round and bright, and she has two buns on her hair. She looks like a doll in a New Year's picture, very flattering.
Xiao Xixi asked Baoqin to bring some food to Xiao Zhilan.
Xiao Zhilan saw the delicious food and wanted to reach for it, but was stopped by her mother.
Xue's coaxed in a low voice: "Xiao Lan, we don't eat the food here. When we go home, mother will get you something delicious."
Although Xiao Zhilan was only ten years old, she did not understand anything.
She had inadvertently overheard people's discussions, saying that she had a direct sister, but her sister was a lone star, and her fate was evil. As long as she was close to her, she would die unexpectedly.
So the elder sister was sent away as soon as she was born, so that Xiao Zhilan had never seen this direct elder sister since she was born.
It was not until last year that Xiao Zhilan saw her for the first time when her sister suddenly returned home.
But the family didn't seem to like her very much, and they all turned away when they saw her.
Parents also told Xiao Zhilan and brother Er, they were not allowed to talk to their sister, not to stay with her, not even to look at her one more time.
When she usually eats, my sister eats alone in her own courtyard. She seldom goes out and doesn't interact with others.
It was not until the draft began that she took the initiative to walk out of the courtyard for the first time and stood in front of her parents, expressing that she wanted to marry into the East Palace.
The elder sister married the prince as she wished and became the prince Liangdi.
Hundreds of people from up and down the General's Mansion also breathed a sigh of relief.
Xue shi protected her little daughter behind her, like a hen protecting her cub, for fear that her cub would be harmed.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Xixi wisely dismissed the idea of with Xue's family.
Xue said cautiously: "The general heard that Xiao Liangdi was accidentally poisoned while attending the birthday banquet, and he was very worried, but the general has been too busy recently, and since he is a foreign minister, it is inconvenient to enter the harem, so he asked the minister's wife to bring it with him. Xiaolan came to see you."
Xiao Xixi said: "I have trouble with my parents, I am almost better now."
Her gaze stopped for a moment on Xue Shi and Xiao Zhilan, and she frowned slightly.
"Mother and sister must not cross the bridge these days, remember!"
Xue Shi puzzled: "Why?"
The family didn't know that Xiao Xixi was a member of Xuanmen, and she didn't plan to leak it out.
She said, "Don't ask why, you just need to remember my words."
