Chapter 277 The Bustling Capital
Bai Ling was originally just a maid doing odd jobs in Changqiu Palace.
Although I later heard that she had served Concubine De in the past, after Concubine De passed away, she could only do odd jobs for the Third Prince.
It was because of my recommendation that I was able to serve in the Queen's palace.
However, she did not expect that the Empress was becoming more and more dependent on her, even more than herself.
Finally, when he was leaving the Queen's Palace, he grabbed Bai Ling and said in a sinister tone: "You are now more favored by the Queen."
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw Yunlan holding her, then smiled and said, "Sister Yunlan, what are you talking about? The Queen still relies on you after all."
"Now I don't dare to call you sister. You are older than me, so I should call you Sister Bai Ling!"
Yunlan still had the same weird look as before.
Bai Ling hurried forward and grabbed her arm: "Sister Yunlan, what are you talking about? You should still call me Sister Bai Ling."
Seeing her trying to please her, Yunlan's expression finally became better. She said with a serious face, "You said before that your family could introduce me to a suitable husband, but now there is no movement."
"Sister, what are you talking about?" Bai Ling deliberately moved closer to Yun Lan. "Sister is now the head maid of the Empress. Everyone is jealous of her."
"Based on your current status, it's more than enough for you to be the wife of a minor official's young master."
Yunlan was persuaded by Bai Ling: "Really?"
"Of course it's true," Bai Ling said, striking while the iron is hot, "When I was serving the Empress Defei, I also had such an opportunity."
"It's just that Concubine De refused to let me go, so I have been delayed until now."
Seeing Bai Ling's face full of grievance, Yunlan gradually calmed down. She spoke a few words to her and turned away.
But Bai Ling was looking at Yunlan's receding back with a gloomy face. How dare a servant from a laundry department covet the lady of the house?
Yue Ran, who was in the main hall at this time, was able to have a rare conversation with Shen Ning: "Why does the queen trust Bai Ling so much now? Wasn't she someone close to Concubine De in the past? Is she reliable?"
Shen Ning smiled, but did not explain too much about Concubine De. She just looked at their receding backs and said, "Yunlan is not presentable, but she is loyal."
"This Bai Ling, although not loyal, is a presentable person."
After saying this, Shen Ning turned around and patted Yue Ran's hand: "Miss Yue Ran, I still need your support."
Yue Ran naturally thanked him politely.
As for Jinyu, she was naturally overjoyed and brought the good news back to the eldest princess's mansion.
Lu Xingwan was so happy that she wanted to spin in circles.
[Mom is great, I love you so much! ]
[Can I go out to the night market again tonight? 】
Before Song Qingyan could reply, the eldest princess' words almost made Lu Xingwan jump up.
"Aunt, I heard from Qin Xing that the Han family will set off fireworks by the moat tonight!"
"Let Qin Xing go to Wangyue Tower and reserve a good spot. Shall we go and take a look as well?"
Qin Xing hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please stay with Xing Ruo first. I'll be right there."
After saying that, he walked out without looking back.
Song Qingyan was a little confused: Is Qin Xing such a powerful person?
After Qin Xing left, Song Qingyan looked at the eldest princess with some concern: "Can you handle this?"
The eldest princess looked at Song Qingyan speechlessly: "Aunt, have you forgotten that when you were carrying Wanwan, you were still brandishing swords and guns!"
Song Qingyan looked back guiltily at Lu Xingwan who was still wandering on the ground, and she almost wanted to rush up and cover Lu Xingruo's mouth.
If Wanwan heard this, she wouldn't know what to say about herself!
Lu Xingwan really never lets Song Qingyan down.
He spoke immediately.
[Mother, you see, nowadays everyone says that I am naughty, but it is not entirely my fault. ]
[I admit that when I was in the Immortal Cultivation World, I did give my master a headache.]
[But I am so naughty now, it must be because my mother was too active when she was pregnant with me. ]
"Okay! Go ahead!" Song Qingyan also sat back speechlessly.
The eldest princess was a little confused. Could it be that her aunt didn't want to go? But didn't her aunt love going out the most?
The fireworks are set off at 15:30 pm.
However, in order to experience the capital city which they had not visited for a long time, following Song Qingyan's suggestion, the few of them simply went out at the beginning of the evening.
However, the eldest princess was not brought along. After all, she was pregnant now and it was not convenient for her to walk outside, so Qin Xing accompanied her. Around the hour of Xu, the group could meet directly at Wangyue Tower.
For safety reasons, several people wore veils, including Pei Chuyan.
But after all, the clothes of several people are still gorgeous.
Even Jinxin and Jinyu's clothes were many times better than those of the maids in ordinary wealthy families, so everyone was very respectful to them along the way.
Because it gets dark later in the summer, it is still bright outside at the beginning of the You hour.
Although there weren't as many people as on the first day the night market opened, it was still very lively.
After walking for a while, they saw a place surrounded by people in three layers inside and outside. Lu Xingwan immediately became anxious.
[Mom, what is that? There are so many people. I want to see it too! ]
Looking in the direction of Lu Xingwan's little hand, it was indeed surrounded by water that could not escape.
Song Qingyan immediately became curious and took a few quick steps forward. It turned out that they were a few gangsters performing arts.
What was being performed now was the knife-swallowing stunt, and the crowd watching burst into cheers from time to time.
Because of the cheers coming from inside, Lu Xingwan became even more anxious, waving his little hands and trying to rush forward.
[Mom, please take me there. I want to see it too! ]
[Is this the mortal world's acrobatics? Wanwan has never seen one before! I heard that the Jianghu people in the folk world are very powerful.]
[Every time I read the content in the storybook, my master said it was a lie. Today I want to take a good look and see if it is a lie as my master said.]
Song Qingyan looked at the crowd that was packed three layers deep inside and three layers deep outside. It was really difficult to squeeze in.
After looking around at a few people around him, he finally chose Pei Chuyan.
"Chu Yan, how about you put Wanwan on your head and let her see it?" Song Qingyan found it really hard to accept the words.
Even Jinxin and Jinyu were stunned.
Pei Chuyan, however, took Lu Xingwan without a care in the world and put her against his neck.
It must be said that Pei Chuyan was indeed growing up very fast. After Lu Xingwan sat on his neck, he could clearly see all the people in front of him.
