Ling Jingyan, who was standing aside, looked shocked and her mind was in confusion.

What's going on here? Why did Queen Xu suddenly want Ah Shu to enter the palace? Ah Shu actually didn’t refuse, and even took the initiative to come forward and accept!

What on earth is Ah Shu thinking?

How could you agree to such an unpredictable event without hesitation?

Wei Jieyu was unable to stop him, and she was secretly annoyed and blamed herself. A joyful smile appeared on his face: "This is really great! When you enter the palace in the future, the Queen will have someone to accompany you and talk to you to relieve your boredom."

Then he smiled at Empress Xu and said, "I wonder how the empress plans to invite Miss Ling Jiu into the palace? Will she be invited into the palace like a concubine in the past, or will she be the female official of Jiaofang Palace like Lvzhu did before?"

When things have reached this point, no one can change the outcome of the matter. What he could do for Ling Jingshu was to try his best to gain a position for her to gain a foothold in the palace.

Everyone knows the whole reason why Wei Jieyu entered the palace. Wei Jieyu is a commoner woman who can only be a palace maid after entering the palace. Luzhu was a serious official daughter. She entered the Jiaofang Palace and became a female official from the beginning. He is in charge of more than a dozen palace maids.

Ling Jingshu's family background is similar to Lu Zhu's, and her identity should be similar to Lu Zhu's.

Apparently many people understood what Wei Jieyu meant.

Ling Jingshu was secretly grateful to Wei Jieyu for reminding her of her care, and took over the conversation with a smile: "Thank you, Empress Jieyu, for your kindness. Being able to stay with the Queen is already a blessing for a common girl. How dare a common girl ask for more. I implore the Empress, please let the daughter of the people enter the palace as a palace maid! The daughter of the people is willing to accompany the Queen day and night."

Wei Jieyu nodded secretly in her heart.

Ling Jingshu is indeed smart, and these few words came at the right time.

By lowering her posture, Queen Xu treated Ling Jingshu badly in front of everyone.

Palace maids and female officials sound similar, but their status and treatment in the palace are completely different. The former are like ordinary maids in various houses. They have to do all kinds of menial tasks such as laundry and cleaning. If they don't do well, they are often scolded and punished.

The female officials around Queen Xu each had their own division of labor and led errands, similar to the stewards of various governments. There is no need to do the chores yourself, just use your mouth to instruct the maids to do it. Walking in the palace is also quite dignified.

Sure enough, Queen Xu smiled and said: "I really saw the right person. Even before I arrived at Jiaofang Hall, my heart was all towards me. Don't worry, I will never treat people around me badly. With you My Hui Zhilanxin is too embarrassed to be an ordinary palace maid, so she has to enter the palace as a female official."

Then he said gently: "Today is the first day of the new year. After you go back, you can spend a few days with your family. After the Lantern Festival, I will ask someone to take you into the palace. You can also bring two of your usual maids. Come into the palace together and take care of your food, clothing and daily life. After entering the palace, it is quite inconvenient to leave the palace. However, you were specially summoned to the palace by me. If you have something important to do, you will be here. Just tell the palace and you can leave the palace after receiving the waist badge."

Ling Jingshu hadn't gotten up yet and continued to kowtow to express gratitude.

Wei Jieyu said with a smile: "The Queen is so partial to Miss Ling Jiu, I feel a little sour when I see her."

The other concubines also laughed and joined in the fun: "Yes, I feel hot looking at it!"

"The Queen cannot favor one over the other. From now on, when I come to Jiaofang Hall to talk to the Queen, the Queen must not ignore me."

The concubines were talking to each other in a very lively manner.

Queen Xu was coaxed into laughing: "You are all trying different ways to make me happy. When I smile like this, two more wrinkles will appear at the corners of my eyes."

All the wives also opened their mouths to speak, and the atmosphere in the main hall became completely lively.

…

Ling Jingshu, who had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, took this opportunity to stand up. He and Sun's Ling Jingyan stepped aside.

Only at this moment did Ling Jingshu realize that her palms were greasy with cold sweat, and her back was also dripping with cold sweat.

Ling Jingshu lowered her head slightly, but she could still detect a lot of strange attention.

The curious, the envious, the jealous, the unkind, the gloating, and many of them just watch the fun and the show.

There were two eyes that were particularly focused and sharp, as if they were like blades passing over her cheeks.

who is it?

Ling Jingshu quietly raised her eyes and quickly caught the woman who had been staring at her. Standing on the left side of Queen Xu, she has a dignified and beautiful appearance, elegant temperament, and a smile on her lips.

She is the newly appointed Princess Yan.

After all, she was still young and not very wealthy. Although she still maintained a smile, the eyes staring at her were full of unkindness and hostility.

Obviously, this Princess Yan misunderstood the true intention of Queen Xu's "favor" for her. She mistakenly thought that Queen Xu intended to marry her to King Yan as a concubine, so she looked at her with the jealous eyes of a love rival.

With so many people in the main hall, there are definitely not a few who misunderstood like Princess Yan.

No one knows Queen Xu’s true intention after her actions.

At this time, everyone was talking, and the Jiaofang Palace was quite lively. Even whispering doesn't seem conspicuous.

Mrs. Sun looked at Ling Jingshu with complicated and unspeakable eyes, lowered her voice and sighed: "You girl, why were you so impulsive just now? Why did you agree to such an important matter in one fell swoop?"

Ling Jingshu responded in a low voice: "Auntie, you have also seen what happened before. You can't tolerate me not agreeing. I took the initiative to open my mouth and it made me look better."

Queen Xu had already made up her mind to let her into the palace. If she escaped this time, she would not be able to escape the next time.

Sun was speechless.

Ling Jingyan suddenly held Ling Jingshu's hand.

There was warmth in the Jiaofang Palace, but Ling Jingshu's hands were cold.

Ling Jingyan's nose felt sore, and tears suddenly welled up in the corners of her eyes. Her trembling voice was slightly choked with sobs: "Ah Shu, do you really have to enter the palace? Can you please ask the Queen for a favor, just say... just say that you can't bear to leave your family? , I won’t enter the palace anymore…”

If she hadn't been worried about the wrong occasion, Ling Jingyan would have burst into tears and burst into tears.

Ling Jingshu felt sour in her heart, but she pretended to smile lightly: "Being able to enter the palace to accompany the Queen is a good thing that others cannot envy. Don't worry about me."

After a pause, he reminded in a low voice: "Cousin Yan, there are many people here, so don't cry."

Queen Xu is still sitting high on the phoenix chair! If you see Ling Jingyan crying here, wouldn't you have another reason and excuse to have an attack?

After Ling Jingyan was reminded, her heart trembled, she immediately pushed back her tears and forced a smile. It's just that the smile is a little stiff and ugly.

Seeing this, Ling Jingshu felt sour in her heart and subconsciously squeezed Ling Jingyan's hand.
