The carriage shook slightly as the carriage moved.

"It's really interesting!" Gu Yanfei sighed softly, the smile on his face deepened, his eyes seemed to be joking, emotional, and insightful, "It's a waste of you not going out today."

After finishing speaking, she lazily leaned back on the carriage and ignored Gu Yunxie.

The carriage was quiet again, only the sound of the wheels outside and the noise from the street echoed in my ears.

Neither of them spoke anymore.

Gu Yunxie's slender fingers clenched the handkerchief in her hand, and quietly looked at Gu Yanfei who was leaning on the carriage with her eyes closed and rested.

Gu Yanfei wore only the simplest braided hair in her black hair, and she was wearing a snow-blue dark-patterned beanie, with a five-panel moon skirt with light and lustrous color underneath, and only a plum blossom hosta and a camellia flower were inserted between her buns. Silk flowers, and a pair of plum blossom pendants in the ears.

Other than that, there is no other jewelry on her body, which looks elegant and elegant.

She obviously grew up in the countryside of Huaibei, but in Gu Yunxie's eyes, she didn't look like her at all.

She is Qinghua, elegant and free, without any sense of vulgarity.

She has a straightforward personality, neither humble nor overbearing, her words and demeanor are unrestrained, and she has a strong character. Even when dealing with noble girls like Wei Jiaoniang, she is also graceful.

Gu Yanfei didn't look like an ordinary country girl at all.

She is hiding too deep!

Gu Yunwei stared at Gu Yanfei, and slowly rolled the handkerchief between his fingers, one circle after another, his thoughts also turned and his eyes flowed.

Ever since her background was revealed, Gu Yunxie always felt that she owed Gu Yanfei.

Even if Mrs. Tai told her time and time again that all this was not her fault, Gu Yunxie always felt ashamed when she thought that she had lived a life of luxury in the Hou Mansion over the past ten years, while Gu Yanfei was suffering in Huaibei. , and therefore she tried her best to make up for Gu Yanfei.

But now, Gu Yunxie realized that she was wrong.

Gu Yanfei hadn't had a bad time in the past fourteen years, that's why she was able to develop her current unruly appearance.

But she wanted to pretend that she owed her something.

Her scheming cannot be underestimated.

Gu Yunxiu stared at her eyes slightly, the thoughtful light flashed in her eyes, but she quickly retracted them and regained her composure.

Gu Yanfei's slender eyelashes moved, and she suddenly opened her eyes to meet Gu Yunxie's scrutinizing gaze. Her eyes were half-closed, and she curled her lips into a smile.

This smile is lazy and uninhibited, casual and comfortable, elegant and unconventional.

Gu Yunxie also pursed her lips and smiled, the pair of small dimples on her cheeks deepened a bit, her heart was as clear as water.

She knew that she was wrong.

She shouldn't be preconceived, and she shouldn't be defenseless. She must be defensive.

In the quiet carriage, it was peaceful and peaceful, but there seemed to be some undercurrent surging.

The horse-drawn carriage of the Hou's Mansion moved forward smoothly, turned several corners in the streets of the capital, and drove for nearly an incense stick of time before a servant girl's respectful announcement came from outside, saying that the palace had arrived.

With this shout, the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down, and finally stopped beside the horse stele in front of the palace gate.

Wang Shi, Gu Yanfei and Gu Yunxie got out of the carriage one after another.

The sky outside was gloomy again, with layers of overcast clouds hanging over the palace gate.

The gates of the three palaces in front are wide open, and the high city towers protrude like mountains, with double eaves flying up, yellow tiles and red walls, majestic.

The women's relatives entered the palace through the Xihua Gate. The front of the palace gate was majestic and solemn. On both sides stood a row of Forbidden Army soldiers in bronze helmets and iron armor.

A teenage waiter in Tsing Yi and two maids were already waiting outside the Xihua Gate, greeted them with a smile, and greeted the Wang family and his party.

"Mrs. Hou, Miss Gu, our family is waiting here for a few of you under the order of the Empress Dowager. This way please." The little servant walked past Gu Yanfei, politely stretched out his hand as a form of invitation, and walked in front to lead them the way.

Taking the lintel of Dingyuanhou's mansion, of course they couldn't sit in sedan chairs, they had to walk all the way to Shou'an Palace from the palace gate, and they couldn't go through the main entrance in the middle, they had to enter the palace through the side entrance.

After walking a few steps, there were scattered snowflakes in the sky, sparsely falling.

The little maid was quick-sighted, and immediately took a tung oil umbrella from the hand of the maid, and said to Gu Yunxie with a smile: "Miss Gu, it's snowing, be careful of catching a cold."

He graciously opened an umbrella for Gu Yunxie himself.

"Miss Gu San, I have a hand stove here." Another court lady presented Gu Yunxie with a small hand stove with a smile on her face.

The Wang family is Mrs. Hou, even though the Dingyuan Hou's mansion is not as good as it used to be, there are still three or five opportunities to enter the palace every year. On weekdays, these palace people are arrogant and indifferent, which is very different from today.

"I'm sorry." Wang said to the palaces with a smile on her face, and turned her head to remind Gu Yunxie meaningfully, "Sister Xie, you must remember the kindness of the empress dowager."

The Wang family didn't mention Kang Wang at all, but everyone knew that the people in Shou'an Palace treated Gu Yunxie differently because of Kang Wang.

Everyone in the palace knew that Gu Yunmai was the cusp of King Kang's heart, and would definitely be the future Princess Kang, so these palace people who usually ride high and low would naturally not mind lowering their figure to show their favor to Gu Yunmai.

"Daughter understands." Gu Yunxie nodded with a smile, his pupils shone brightly, and his little daughter was hesitant to speak.

She put the small flower-basket-shaped hand stove in her sleeve, and glanced at Gu Yanfei calmly from the corner of her eye, trying to see if there was envy or embarrassment in Gu Yanfei's eyes.

However, what she met was a pair of clear almond eyes.

Gu Yanfei was still the casual and comfortable Gu Yanfei, scanning the people and things around him with a calm expression.

Her eyes were very casual, very relaxed, and she stood calmly, neither deliberately calm, nor looking away from her side, nor envious.

It seemed that Qionglou Yuyu in front of her was as ordinary to her as seeing a leaf on the road.

Don't have a kind of indifference that regards the world as nothing.

Passing through the side door of Xihua Gate, you can see a few palace people in front of the palace road carrying a sedan chair and walking towards this side, stepping down like a breeze.

The little servant holding the umbrella for Gu Yunxie's eyes lit up, his eyes narrowed when he smiled, and he raised his voice excitedly: "Miss Gu, it must be the sedan chair arranged by the prince for the girl, the prince is really a caring person. "

The Empress Dowager Yuan did not arrange a sedan chair for Gu Yunxie, so the sedan chair was obviously arranged by King Kang.

The little servant and the two maids exchanged glances, and looked at Gu Yunxie with a more respectful and earnest expression.

Gu Yunxie thought the same way, her cheeks were flushed, the corners of her rosy lips were slightly raised, her heart was filled with honey, sweet.

"My lord is very considerate, really considerate." Wang said happily, with a sense of pride and elation.

The crowd surrounded Gu Yunxie like stars surrounding the moon, leaving Gu Yanfei aside.

However, when the sedan chair was brought up to Gu Yunxie, it didn't stop, instead it passed her like a gust of wind.

Wang frowned slightly, and was about to speak when she saw the sedan chair being carried to Gu Yanfei.

A white-faced and beardless middle-aged servant smiled and bowed to Gu Yanfei, and said in a shrill voice respectfully, "Miss Gu, please get into the sedan chair. It's snowing and slippery today, so it's hard to walk."

After putting down the sedan chair, the palace servants who carried the sedan chair also bowed to Gu Yan in unison.

"..." Gu Yanfei blinked inexplicably.

The other people present all stared at this scene dumbfounded and fell silent for a while.

A gust of strong and piercing cold wind blew by, and the tung oil umbrella was blown by the wind and snow, making a rattling sound, and almost flew away from the little servant's hand.

The little servant hurriedly grasped the handle of the umbrella, and looked at the middle-aged servant with a strange look.

Wang almost thought that these palace people referred to the second girl Gu as the third girl Gu, and hesitated to speak.

Even Gu Yunxie's face changed slightly at this moment, his cheeks flushed, embarrassment, shock, and embarrassment flashed alternately, but he immediately returned to normal.

In just a few words, the snow fell harder and harder, and flakes of snowflakes hit the ceiling of the sedan chair one after another, rustling.

Although Gu Yanfei didn't feel tired from walking, she didn't like her shoes getting wet with snow.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Gu Yanfei thanked her generously, without asking too much, without pushing, and under the complicated eyes of everyone, she directly got into the sedan chair.

This is a sedan chair for one person, obviously, there is no other person's share.

Mrs. Wang has also recovered from the initial shock, her face has calmed down a lot, and she politely asked the little servant holding the umbrella to lead the way, lest the empress dowager wait for so long.

She was puzzled in her heart, and couldn't help but wonder: Who arranged the sedan chair for Gu Yanfei? This is the imperial palace.

A group of people walked in the direction of Shou'an Palace.

Wang Shi and Gu Yunxiu walked in front, and the sedan chair that Gu Yanfei was riding in was a foot behind, following behind them not too far away.

Wang almost exhausted all her strength to not look back, maintaining her elegance as Mrs. Hou, passed through palace gates in the wind and snow, walked through palace roads, and finally arrived at Shouan Palace.

Gu Yanfei's sedan chair also stopped at the gate of Shou'an Palace with them.

The palace people at the gate of Shou'an Palace cast their eyes on the sedan chair in unanimous agreement, and they couldn't hide the shock on their faces, and the same question emerged in their hearts: Who is this girl?

As soon as Wang's group arrived, the maid in charge of Shou'an Palace personally brought people to welcome them.

The maid in charge of the palace has been in the palace for many years, so she naturally recognizes the imperial wives of those honorable families, and also Gu Yunmai, and greets the two of them with a smile: "Mrs. Hou, Miss Gu, please come inside."

"And this girl, please."

The lady in charge turned her gaze over Mrs. Wang to the girl who just got off the sedan chair at the end. The smile on her face was just right, and she was thinking about her identity:

Since this girl was brought by Mrs. Dingyuan Hou, it is likely to be a girl from the Gu family, but how could she come here in a sedan chair?
