Her movements were graceful and smooth, like flowing clouds and running water.
When he stood up, he leaned forward slightly, as naturally as a breeze, then took a few steps forward, bowed slightly, and handed the tea respectfully.
This series of actions fully demonstrates the dignity and grace of the noble lady.
Ling Yue grew up outside the Great Wall. She only dealt with the palace's red tape out of courtesy, but in her heart she was quite annoyed by these rules.
However, she had lived in the Eastern Palace for two years, and the Queen did not like her as the daughter of a military general. In order to please the Queen, she had to let the maids teach her etiquette.
I originally thought that her manners were comparable to the elegance and grace of the young ladies from the noble families in the capital. Although her manners were not as dignified as the empress and the ladies in the other palaces, they could still be considered graceful.
But today, after seeing Su Jingyao, a model of a noble lady from a noble family in the capital, I realized that under strict etiquette, a woman can not only be elegant and graceful, but also be graceful and charming.
It turns out that this is the demeanor of a noble lady from an aristocratic family.
Ling Yue took the tea, lowered her eyelashes slightly, took a sip, and said slowly: "Concubine Su, please sit down."
"Thank you, sister."
The corners of Su Jingyao's mouth slightly raised, and the innocent smile on her still young face was like a flower blooming in spring, fresh and natural, revealing a childlike innocence.
She raised her head and saw the face of the heroine of the novel so closely for the first time.
Although Ling Yue's appearance is not as exquisite as hers, she also has a unique charm.
Her skin is delicate with a faint luster, her eyebrows are like distant mountains, slightly raised, with a touch of boldness and heroism, her eyes are as bright as stars, sparkling, and seem to be shining as they move, and her nose is straight and beautiful, adding a three-dimensional sense to her face.
The whole person is like a horse galloping freely in the frontier, exuding a unique charm and a bit of stubbornness and unruliness.
Perhaps, it was her unique and free and easy temperament that attracted Jun Zechen, who had lived in the palace for many years.
The free girl outside the Great Wall did have a fatal attraction to the young Jun Zechen.
After all, Jun Zechen grew up in the imperial palace and has always hated women with deep scheming minds.
During the year when Ling Yue went out to fight in the war, she passed Jun Zecheng's observation and test. In his heart, he had already determined that Ling Yue was a person with a pure mind.
It was because of this that Ling Yue entered his heart.
Su Jingyao looked at Ling Yue openly, but her eyes were pure and gave people a sense of kindness.
She didn't look at it for long, and then slowly sat down on the chair next to her.
When Su Jingyao sat down slowly, a barely perceptible hesitation flashed between her brows and her expression seemed a little unnatural, as if she had some unspeakable words in her heart that she was hesitant to speak.
Ling Yue took in all of this and asked softly, "Does Concubine Su have anything to say?"
"I do have some things that I want to talk to you about, but... I don't know if it's convenient..."
Su Jingyao's eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of hesitation.
As she spoke, she lowered her head slightly, her eyes wandering around the ground, sometimes biting her lower lip, sometimes frowning slightly.
Ling Yue was a little confused. It was only the first time she and Su Jingyao met. Could they have anything to talk about privately?
Although she didn't understand, she still waved her hand and said, "All of you, leave."
Su Jingyao breathed a sigh of relief. If she were in front of the palace maids, she really couldn't say it.
Her hands stirred unconsciously, her fingers trembling slightly, clearly revealing her inner hesitation.
When she raised her head again, her eyes met Ling Yue's.
Su Jingyao bit her lower lip lightly, mustered up her courage, and spoke in a light and trembling voice.
"Sister, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stayed at Xiyan Palace yesterday, he did not do anything to me."
After she finished speaking, a blush quickly appeared on her charming face, like a ripe cherry, and the blush gradually spread to the tips of her ears.
At this moment, her head was slightly lowered, full of shyness.
Ling Yue showed surprise on her face.
The prince had sent someone to inform her of this yesterday, but she never expected that Su Jingyao would tell her the truth in person.
"Why are you telling me this?"
There was a complex light in Ling Yue's eyes. She tilted her head slightly and her gaze fell on Su Jingyao.
Such words were difficult for even a bold and unrestrained daughter of a military commander like her to bring up, so how could Su Jingyao, a lady from an aristocratic family, be willing to bring them up on her own initiative?
After all, what woman would be willing to admit that she is not loved by her husband?
"I know that my sister and Your Highness have a love that is stronger than gold, and they are a perfect match made in heaven. I am forced to leave because of the emperor's order. I have no choice but to marry into the East Palace."
Su Jingyao's voice became softer, yet unusually firm.
"Yesterday, I asked Your Highness to stay at Xiyan Palace just to preserve the reputation of the Su family. I also promised Your Highness that I would personally clear up this misunderstanding with my sister. I really don't want there to be any grudge between my sister and Your Highness because of me."
Su Jingyao's watery eyes were full of sincerity and honesty, and the light in them was pure and hot, making it hard to resist.
Ling Yue stared at Su Jingyao with complex emotions in her eyes.
Because of Su Jingyao's words, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty. Her brows furrowed slightly and her lips pursed.
She knew very well that it was because of her infertility that her mother asked her father to decree the marriage between Su Jingyao and Aze.
Thinking back to her narrow-minded thinking just now, she looked ashamed and her cheeks turned slightly red.
Originally, as Su Jingyao was the eldest daughter of the Su family, she could have married the person of her dreams and lived a happy life, but now she can only live alone in the East Palace for the rest of her life.
