Zhou Shi was silent.
Gu Zhiqing clenched her fists and said angrily: "Okay, I will not depend on you in the future! All I can say is that the old lady is partial, you love me, it turns out that everything is just my self-love!"
After she finished speaking, she pushed Kai Ming Xing and ran away.
Ming Xing was a little nervous and hurriedly kowtowed to Mrs. Zhou, "Madam, the girl is just angry, don't be angry."
Zhou Shi's expression was disappointed, her brows and eyes were stained with fatigue, she waved at Ming Xing and motioned her to get up.
Mother Li, who was beside the Zhou family, said to Ming Xing, "Go and chase the girl. I've been serving you carefully recently. When it's time to persuade, persuade me."
Ming Xing was blessed and hurriedly retreated.
After she stepped back, Mrs. Zhou rubbed her brows and said to Mama Li, "This child is really spoiled by me, and he is becoming more and more indecent. The girl's family has not learned the least bit of restraint. Before getting married, be sure to let him She just has to learn the rules."
Li's mother advised: "The girl is still young, just teach her well, and the master doesn't have to worry."
Where is the issue of age, Zhong Li is only one year older than her, and she is more than a little bit stronger than her. Zhong Li three years ago would never have been so rash.
Zhou Shi felt uncomfortable, and when he got into the carriage, his complexion was also a little bad. When he saw Zhong Li, he barely regained his strength and gave her a few simple words.
Zhong Li responded one by one. Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Zhong Li said thoughtfully, "Aren't the second aunt resting? While there is time on the road, close your eyes and rest for a while."
Zhou Shi nodded with a smile.
The carriage drove all the way to the palace, the noise on the street gradually faded away, and finally stopped at Dongzhimen.
The sun slanted down, the sun shone on the glazed tiles, and the entire palace was bathed in sunlight, making it very solemn.
It was the first time for Zhong Li to enter the palace, and she was inevitably a little more apprehensive. After entering the palace, she was shocked by the majestic and magnificent palace.
She didn't dare to look any further, she just glanced at the corner of the eye, lowered her eyes respectfully, and followed the Zhou family to Jingyang Palace under the leadership of the little palace maid.
At this time, Gu Zhiqing was sitting in front of the dressing table unhappily, her eyes were full of coldness, she thought for a while before calling Ming Xing to her and said, "Send someone to deliver a message to the First Prince, just say There is a stunning beauty who entered the palace today, if he can't see it, he will regret it for a hundred years."
It is not easy to kill Zhong Li, she has to destroy her, since Gu Lin is unreliable, he can borrow someone else's hand.
Ming Xing wanted to persuade her, but when she met her cold eyes, she flinched a little, and said quietly, "This servant will send someone over."
It didn't take long for Zhou Shi and Zhong Li to arrive outside Jingyang Palace.
After the little palace maid made the announcement, they entered the palace. Zhong Li saluted with the Zhou family, and then heard a sweet and soft voice and said to the second wife: "I guess you will arrive at this hour, and this is Li beside you. Girl, right? Come here and let Ben Gong take a look."
Zhong Li took a step forward and respectfully blessed her body again.
Her saluting attitude couldn't be more standard, as if she had practiced countless times in private, every movement was extremely elegant, and her eyes were lowered respectfully, looking very polite.
Concubine Shu smiled and said, "Zhen'er is full of praise for you. She praises you for your beauty. Raise your head and let Ben Gong take a closer look."
Zhong Li raised his eyes obediently.
When she saw her impeccable face, Concubine Shu couldn't help breathing. The girl's eyes were full of water, her skin was as thick as grease, and her lips were like Zhudan.
Concubine Shu said, "Your mother was born extremely beautiful, but you are better than the blue. I am afraid that you are the most beautiful woman in the capital this year."
"Niangniang praised me wrongly. With so many beauties in the capital, how could Ali be the first." She was neither humble nor arrogant, and looked very modest.
Concubine Shu originally thought that she was quite a scheming person, so that the scheming took away her nephew's heart, but now that she saw the real person, Concubine Shu knew that she was narrow-minded.
Although Zhong's beauty is poor, her daughter teaches very well, and she deserves the praise of Hui Zhi Lan's heart and Xiu Wai Hui Zhong.
Lu Zhenmiao also liked Zhong Li's gentleness, and said to Concubine Shu with a smile: "I just said that Miss Zhong is such a good girl that my aunt will like it. Zhen'er is right?"
Concubine Shu smiled and shook her head, and introduced Lu Zhenmiao to Zhong Li, "This is my niece, Lu Zhenmiao, she has always wanted to make friends with you. You can hang out together when you enjoy the flowers later."
Lu Zhenmiao bent her lips towards Zhong Li, her smile friendly and bright.
When Zhong Li held the wedding ceremony, she received a congratulatory gift from her. Although she had never met, she asked her maid to inquire about her. Lu Zhenmiao has a lively temperament and a kind heart. Among many noble girls, she is a rare and easy-going temperament. .
Zhong Li also smiled at her.
Only at this moment did the Zhou family understand why Concubine Shu paid extra attention to Zhong Li. She was slightly relieved, she was really afraid that Zhong Li had inadvertently violated Concubine Shu's taboo.
Seeing Zhong Li's elegant demeanor, her advance and retreat, the ladies who were already present also praised a few words. Among them, Mrs. Liu, Li Ge Lao's eldest daughter-in-law, said with a smile, "I saw you once when you were ten years old. She came out so beautiful, I almost didn't recognize it just now. Does Li girl still remember me?"
Zhong Li had a little impression of Mrs. Liu. When her mother was alive, she also had several friends who were good friends. Mrs. Liu was one of them. Zhong Li had heard her mother compliment her. Now that she recognized her, she became more cordial. He smiled and said, "Naturally I remember that the orchid hosta you gave me on my mother's birthday, my mother liked it very much."
Liu Shi also smiled: "I guess she would like it, she, like the concubine Shu, especially loves orchids."
Because it was in Concubine Shu's Jingyang Palace, Mrs. Liu stopped when it was enough, and brought the topic to the orchid, and then started chatting with Concubine Shu.
Zhong Li didn't answer any more, and respectfully retreated to Zhou's side.
An orphaned girl like Zhong Li could not get into the eyes of noble ladies at all. Seeing that Concubine Shu and Mrs Liu treated her very gently, everyone gave her a few more glances, and they were amazed by this look.
