"That Gong E seems to be the person next to Queen Cheng, right?"
"Isn't it, I didn't expect this Yun family's daughter to have friendship with the new queen so soon."
"I'm afraid that Queen Cheng will do this because of the lack of friendship. Think about it, the Holy Master has made an order for King Li to marry this Yun family girl on the sixth day of March. She is now going out under the name of Princess Li. Who is this King Li? No one in Kyoto City knows who doesn't know, but what happened to the Queen, so I don't want to flatter the Princess Li."
"You have to be careful when you say this. But it is also true that Princess Li's current momentum is naturally higher than that of the Queen. Even the side concubine of King Li is by no means inferior to the position of the imperial concubine in the palace."
"Isn't it!"
The girls were whispering, and because of Wang Li's status and his previous brilliant performance at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, the wives of each family had already told their daughters about it.
Before leaving the house today, many ladies who attended the ceremony were urged by their mothers. In the future, Princess Li shouldn't be offended, but if King Li can look at you, then don't worry about Princess Li.
At that time, Yunling had gone to Zhaoming Palace...
"It's been more than a year since I saw you at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet last time. I hear your deeds every day in my boudoir, knowing that you are very busy." The dignified demeanor adds to the casualness of the lady in the boudoir. But she didn't behave very intimately, just talked about the past like an ordinary friend recounting the past.
Yun Ling looked at Empress Cheng without being contrived. Although she looked lofty because of her makeup, her eyes were clear and clean.
"It's very busy, very passive and busy." Yun Ling replied with a smile.
Empress Cheng nodded as she listened, and knew that Yunling was not easy in those days.
"I wanted to wait for you to finish, and then I would invite you to have tea at the mansion when I was free. But then I couldn't help myself. After I entered the palace, I was no better at home. I just wanted to invite you. If you are unfamiliar with these things in the palace, if you invite you into the palace rashly, I am afraid it will hurt you.” Empress Cheng has always been regretful, but regrets that she didn't talk to Yun Ling before entering the palace.
"The queen can think of Ling'er, Ling'er is very grateful." Yun Ling knew that Empress Cheng must have been suffering when she first entered the palace, so let's not talk about the empress dowager. Just being a young girl, suddenly came to a strange palace from a familiar home, that kind of psychological excess is not so easy to adapt.
"It's etiquette for you to call me the queen in front of people, and this can't be abolished. But after people, I hope you can call me Jiayi. I don't deserve to be a sister, but I hope I can be a friend." Empress Cheng could hear Yun Ling's tone. She is a little disappointed, but she puts things straight.
"Okay." Yun Ling's answer surprised Empress Cheng so readily, she raised her eyes and fixedly looked at Yun Ling.
Yun Ling smiled and shook his head: "You don't know that this is my strategy to retreat. I don't like to call you'Queen Empress' every day. If you look back, you are upset and punished me to kneel. But since you so-"
Yun Ling paused, looking at Empress Cheng with bright eyes: "Jiayi, I also admire you. Your talent, your character from a royal family but not vanity. As long as your heart is the same. Today, I, Yunling, will treat you like a friend for a day."
"You—" Empress Cheng saw frankness and rashness in Yun Ling's shining water eyes.
As long as your heart is now, my Yunling will treat you like a friend.
Empress Cheng read this sentence silently, understanding the profound meaning of Yun Ling's words. Suddenly she felt that the girl who was smiling and beautiful in front of her had broad wisdom. She knew that the human heart is the most changeable, so before their friendship, she set the premise of "as long as her heart remains the same."
Yun Ling saw that Empress Cheng was looking back seriously, knowing that what the latter said was from her sincerity, and she slowly said: "It has nothing to do with the government, the man, and the status. This is a friend."
She has not made any friends of the same sex when she comes here, and Liu Yu and others are more like relatives to her. She also hopes to have such a friend, who can have tea and chat about endless topics.
"Sure enough, you are as I thought, completely different from the young ladies in other palaces in Kyoto." Empress Cheng smiled.
"I don't know if my heart will change in the palace, but I will remember your words. It has nothing to do with government, man, or status. This is a friend." Empress Cheng remembered this sentence carefully, she hoped She will be able to stay in the palace in the future and retain a state of mind that belongs to her.
She envied Yun Ling and admired the courage of the latter. But she knew that she would never be like Yun Ling, dare to provoke everything, be able to master the art of war and have a strategy that is not inferior to a man.
She likes Yunling's saneness, and she likes her to live happily and arbitrarily. Although she can't have it, she hopes to see such a person by her side, so that she can feel at ease and make her feel that everything is real.
"Then I would like to thank the Empress Empress for her kindness. Can you give me something to eat?" Yun Ling said that he was very hungry, so that his chest was pressed against his back.
"Puff—Yes! You wait." Empress Cheng smiled brightly, got up and ordered the servant girl to get a snack.
When Yun Ling saw the food, his eyes were shining brightly!
"You have some stomach pads first, and you will be ready to eat soon." Empress Cheng explained.
"Yes, you can." Yun Ling had a big snack while Empress Cheng was talking.
The two talked one by one, and the other ate while replying, which was quite pleasant. When Gong E came to pass that the emperor had already set aside, Empress Cheng let Yun Ling wipe his hands and join her in the table.
"Such a high profile? Don't I need to go back first?" Yun Ling felt deeply that she had better keep a low profile.
"No." Empress Cheng got up and saw Yun Ling's headdress on her sideburns was quite plain, she must wear the blue jade Huasheng that perfectly matches her today's faint blue satin.
"Heavy!" Yun Ling protested.
"Today is your big day, you can't be so plain!" After Empress Cheng put on Yunling this blue jade Huasheng, she took off her earlobes, instead of getting a bunch of the same heavyweight blue jade earrings.
"Are you going to harm me?" Yun Ling suddenly made friends by himself.
Empress Cheng ignored Yunling's protest, and after giving her upside down, she let Gong E in to repair her makeup, and then drove to the banquet hall.
Because the distance from the Qiankun Hall to the banquet hall is longer than that from Zhaoming Palace to the banquet hall, so this tossing down, the empress of Cheng’s Luangjia and the emperor’s Longjia happened to ran into each other on the road.
"Are you right?" Yun Ling asked the thief with eyebrows.
Empress Cheng "huh" twice, turned her head and said nothing. But Yun Ling looked at the rouge on her face, there was clearly a red tide that could not be concealed. Yun Ling pondered: It seems that this new emperor is more like this empress Cheng.
"I heard that the empress is in Luanjia, but there is your sweetheart." After seeing the empress's Luanjia, Emperor Feng Yuan joked to Sheng Qi beside him.
