C114 (1/2)

After the twenty-third day of the third month of the eighth lunar month, the imperial court had begun to rest. There was no need to go back to the morning assembly. Occasionally, when he was free, Jin Chupei would go to the medicine hut to take a seat and play chess with Ji Zi. Even though he knew that Sun Jinzi would not come, but hearing some things about him, Jin Chupei felt that he was closer to Sun Jinzi.

A few days ago, he had also been invited by the First Prince to the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest. However, when he saw the entire room filled with spring lights and birds chirping and dancing, Jin Chupei couldn't take it anymore.

The palace was already constantly being handed out golden invitation cards, which were sent to the masters' residences. Presumably, there would be palace feast in the palace by New Year's Eve. I wonder if Sun Jinzi will participate in it.

Jin Chupei longed to see her, but he did not want her to be seen by so many people. She could not be desecrated by anyone.

As a concubinage, naturally, Sun Jinzi couldn't attend such occasions, but the Old Mistress Qian still allowed her to accompany him.

Sun Jinzi did not refuse, although she did not like such an occasion, but when she thought of the possibility of Jin Chupei seeing her in shock, Sun Jinzi could not help but smile in her heart.

In the carriage, only Qian Linxi and her were there, while his grandfather and grandmother were in the carriage, not the other way around.

Qian Linxi did not look much on the surface, but the kernels revealed her uneasy feelings. Sun Jinzi also noticed it, but when she thought about how he was the same when he attacked the first time, she started to cherish him a little.

Cousin sister Xi Er, you will be with me when we enter later.

Although he looked a little unnatural on the surface, Qian Linxi still nodded. After all, this Sun Jinzi was still a Lady, he should have seen the world before.

”What, Cousin Sister Zi Er entered the Imperial Palace?”

Just as she was about to say something, Sun Jinzi swallowed her words.

”I've only been here once, but it's good to have some help, don't you think, cousin?”

Qian Linchuan did not reply, but the corner of his mouth curled up a little. After not seeing his for a few days, this Cousin Sister Zi Er had become a little different from before.

Sensing that the carriage had stopped, without waiting for Coachman's report, Qian Linchuan lifted the Car Curtain.

The carriage had to go to the gates of the palace, and they had to go in on foot. After being helped out of the carriage by Qian Linchuan, Sun Jinzi and Qian Linxi hurried over to help Liushi.

Sun Jinzi also did not expect that the jade concubine would actually send someone to wait at the entrance of the palace to carry the Liushi inside.

”Zi Er, Xi Er is still young and inexperienced, watch her properly when you get inside. Don't let him cause any trouble.”

Being said like this by his grandfather, how could Qian Linxi be unhappy? However, he had no way to refute grandfather and could only obediently lower his head to follow beside Sun Jinzi.

”Grandfather, don't worry. I will always be with Little Sister Xi Er.”

Sun Jinzi held Qian Linxi's hand. Feeling her struggling a little, yet obediently letting herself hold his hand, Sun Jinzi laughed in her heart. This girl had a much worse temper than when she was young. She even liked to hold a grudge. It had been almost a month, but she was still sulking.

Today, he would most likely meet the Fourth Prince again. He could only hope that Qian Linxi did not go overboard.

The two of them followed behind the sedan chair. They felt that the palace was getting deeper and deeper, and their hearts were tense. They had to be cautious inside, as there weren't any females that were weak.

After greeting the Jade Fragment Palace, she also got off the sedan. Turning around to look at the pair of young girls standing behind him, Liushi was still a little worried.

”Both of you, follow your grandmother and don't act without authorization.”

Sun Jinzi nodded, and looked at the entrance of the Jade Fragment Palace. She came to the Jade Fragment Palace a few months ago, and now that she thought about it, it felt like yesterday.

When the palace maids in front of the palace saw this person, even though they didn't recognize Liushi, they knew that the wife who sat on her sedan was definitely an ordinary person. She quickly invited the person into the palace.

The deeper they went, the more Sun Jinzi's heart tightened. If not for the fact that the female servants of the officials were being entertained by Yu Fei, the two of them would not need to go to Jade Fragment Palace. Sun Jinzi only hoped that Yu Fei wouldn't use her marriage to find a topic to talk about later.

Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Qian Linxi looking in every direction. Sun Jinzi quickly pulled on her sleeves as well. This palace was not like the outside world. If others saw her appearance, saying that she had no manners would be a small matter.

Even if Qian Linxi was unwilling, he could only obediently follow behind the Liushi. There were already quite a few ladies in the hall. When he saw Sun Jinzi, Sun Jinmeng's eyes flashed with a trace of astonishment. She didn't expect a concubinage like her to participate in this kind of event …

Seeing the Liushi bow, the two of them followed suit. Sun Jinzi did not move about randomly. She only looked at the black, shiny ground, and saw the shadows very clearly. Going there also caused a touch of coldness to surge out from the bottom of her heart.

”Old Mistress Qian, no need to be so courteous, please take a seat.”

The Liushi was also not polite. After she sat down, Sun Jinzi and Qian Linxi obediently stood behind her.

”Zi Er, long time no see, come over quickly for This Palace to take a look.”
