Chapter 246 Guests in Yayan Pavilion

"Princess, Princess, the Princess of Qin is here! The Princess of Qin has come to Yayan Pavilion to visit the Empress and you!" The maid Wanting ran into the house quickly to tell Princess Yongqing the news.

Princess Yongqing stood up in surprise, "Really? My sister-in-law is here?!" Without waiting for Wanting's answer, she ran out of the house, completely forgetting that there were two guests in the house.

The princess ran away, leaving behind two embarrassed guests. The maid Wanting said embarrassedly: "These days, my princess has missed the Princess of Qin so much. You two ladies, please wait for a moment."

Luo Ruixue and Li Jiaqi looked at each other. Luo Ruixue said: "Since the Princess of Qin has come to Yayan Pavilion, why don't we go to pay our respects to her?"

Li Jiaqi curled his lips and said, "If I don't go to pay my respects to her, I'll just sit here for a long time. Who knows how long I'll be sitting here? Hearing that the Princess of Qin was coming, Princess Yongqing forgot about us. I was afraid that she would not even remember that there were two friends in the concubine's room until dark!"

The princess was so surprised that she was rude today. The maid Wanting smiled awkwardly, "If the two ladies want to pay a visit to the Princess of Qin, I will take you there!"

Luo Li had just greeted the Queen Song who came hurriedly from the small Buddhist hall. Before she could say a few words after sitting down, Princess Yongqing ran in.

Looking closely, it was the sister-in-law she missed day and night sitting there. Her nose was sour, her mouth curled, and tears flowed out. She ran up and hugged Luo Li, and burst into tears: "Sister-in-law, you have been avoiding us for so many days. Don't you want my brother, mother and me?"

"Don't cry, Yongqing. Even if I don't want Zhao Defang, I will want you." Luo Li patted Princess Yongqing's back with amusement and emotion, comforting the silly girl.

"Only Yongqing? Then... what about me?" Queen Song made a rare joke, and looked at her daughter-in-law with an aggrieved look.

"Ah?" Luo Li was stunned! She thought, this mother who is extremely noble, elegant and intelligent, will also be jealous like a child? Should she take out a piece of candy to coax her?

Just coax her, coaxing one is coaxing, and coaxing two is also coaxing.

Luo Li smiled and pushed Princess Yongqing away from her arms, soothing her and helping her sit in her seat. She walked to Queen Song and smiled lovingly and warmly: "Mother, come, hug me!"

Queen Song's old face turned red, and just as she was about to refuse, she was hugged into her arms by her daughter-in-law, who patted her back and soothed her softly: "Mother, be good! I will come to the palace to see you every few days in the future. One day, I will take you out of the palace to enjoy life, take you to travel, take you shopping and eat delicious food."

Queen Song, who wanted to leave in shame, was confused by the wonderful life described by her silly daughter-in-law.

In this life, will I have the opportunity to go out of the palace to go shopping, eat delicious food, and travel? If I could leave this dark, cold and lonely palace and live a beautiful and free life for a few days, I would die with my eyes closed.

Although she knew it was impossible, she was still moved by the filial piety of her silly daughter-in-law.

Queen Song broke away from Luo Li's embrace, her face blushing but she was not angry at her daughter-in-law's rude behavior. She said softly: "Li'er, sit back and tell your mother what you have been busy with these days?"

Luo Li returned to Princess Yongqing and squeezed into a chair with her. Yongqing hugged her sister-in-law's waist tightly, as if she was afraid that she would run away.

: "Mother, Yongqing, I haven't been in the capital for more than three months, so I haven't come to the palace to visit you."

"Sister-in-law, where have you been?" Yongqing looked up at Luo Li in surprise and asked.

Luo Li smiled proudly: "I followed your brother to the front line to fight."

"Ah?..." Princess Yongqing's eyes widened in shock.

"What? You went to the front line?" Queen Song also stood up in shock.

Luo Li was about to explain clearly and tell them the situation of this Northern Expedition.

"Your Majesty, Miss Luo and Miss Li heard that the Princess of Qin was here, so they came to pay their respects." The voice of the palace maid Wanting came from outside the house.

Princess Yongqing let go of Luo Li, stood up and said awkwardly, "Mother, I heard that the Emperor's sister-in-law was here, and I... forgot about them."

Empress Song glanced at her daughter in reproach, "Why don't you go and bring them in." She

explained to Luo Li again, "Yongqing left the palace and went to the palace to look for you but couldn't find you. While shopping, she met Luo Ruixue and Li Jiaqi in Jinlou, and they stood up for her and taught the shopkeeper of Jinlou a lesson.

Then, they walked around the East Market together, and the two of them came to the palace every now and then to play with Yongqing. Concubine Li Xian allowed them to enter the palace at any time. I thought Yongqing was lonely, and it would be good to have two playmates, so I didn't stop them."

Luo Li just smiled and nodded, without comment. But in my heart, I was thinking, what are these two daughters of Shangshu family planning? Are they trying to steal the favor of me, the Princess of Qin, through roundabout ways?

After Princess Yongqing apologized repeatedly to Luo Ruixue and Li Jiaqi, they were led into the house, where they first paid their respects to Empress Song, and then bowed to the Princess of Qin, saying, "Luo Ruixue, Li Jiaqi, nice to meet the Princess of Qin."

Luo Li sat still, looking at Empress Song with curiosity and confusion, and asked, "Mother, why have I seen Miss Luo and Li Jiaqi kneel down and pay their respects to the Princess of Chu and the Princess of Chen in the past?

Why are they only kneeling down to pay their respects to me, the Princess of Qin, in this Yayan Pavilion, your mother? Didn't the Emperor say in a solemn statement that the children of the late Emperor should be treated as his own and given the treatment of princes and princesses? The King of Qin, the King of Chu and the King of Chen are treated the same, so shouldn't I, the Princess of Qin, have the same status as the Princess of Chu and the Princess of Chen?"

Luo Ruixue and Li Jiaqi were troubled! I thought to myself, you silly princess, you really took chicken feathers as your order. Are you worthy of kneeling down?

The wise Queen Song knew why her daughter-in-law was unhappy. She didn't say anything, but glanced coldly at the two young ladies who were still standing.

Luo Ruixue was still smart. Although she felt aggrieved, she knelt down hurriedly, saying, "Your servant Luo Ruixue greets the Princess of Qin."

Li Jiaqi saw that the always arrogant Luo Ruixue was subdued, so she had to kneel down reluctantly, saying, "Your servant Li Jiaqi greets the Princess of Qin."

Luo Li was very arrogant, and she stretched out her hand to help her indifferently, saying, "Two ladies, please stand up without the formalities!"

The maid Wanting laughed beside her, thinking, didn't you come here to greet the Princess of Qin? Finally, she got what she wanted.

Princess Yongqing was also dissatisfied with these two new friends. Although she was easy-going and had never put on airs in front of Luo Ruixue and Li Jiaqi, she knew that if the emperor's sister-in-law wanted to punish someone, it must be that person's fault.

Luo Ruixue saw that no one even gave her a seat, and she knew that staying any longer would be humiliating. She was angry at the silly princess's harshness today, but she smiled calmly and said goodbye to Queen Song, Princess Qin, and Princess Yongqing.

Princess Yongqing, who was pure and kind, would never hit someone who smiled at her. Moreover, Luo Ruixue and Li Jiaqi had been trying their best to please her these days. She, who had always been isolated and neglected among the princesses of the royal family, also experienced the rare friendship between friends.

"I'll take you there. When you have time, come to the palace to play with me." Princess Yongqing, who no one cared about because of her sister-in-law, still said politely.

"Okay! When the peach blossoms on my farm bloom, the three of us will go to appreciate them." Luo Ruixue also climbed up with the help of the pole.

"Let's talk about it later! My mother doesn't like me running out of the palace all the time." Princess Yongqing didn't agree at once.

"Princess Yongqing, you rarely leave the palace since you were little, it's really pitiful, just like a little bird locked in a cage." Li Jiaqi said sympathetically.

Princess Yongqing smiled faintly: "I'm used to it! It's quiet and comfortable in the palace, I don't like the hustle and bustle."

But she sighed in her heart. Her mother said that they were like hostages in the palace. They would not be in danger for the time being, but it would be dangerous if they left the palace and would cause trouble for the emperor.

In the past few years, the emperor's brother has encountered countless assassinations, and even the emperor's sister-in-law and Wu Ji were almost killed in the hot spring villa. As the weak link of the emperor, it is better for me to hide in this deep palace prison as a hostage.

However, as a young girl, who doesn't like the hustle and bustle?
