Chapter 48: | 【48】

In the afternoon, the state banquet ended.
After this birthday banquet, Lin Feilu formally showed up in front of the emperor's relatives.
People are always paying attention to the direction of the wind in the palace. When the people attending the banquet went out and said, the people who did not know the five princesses at first also knew that there was such a cute and cute princess in the palace.
Emperor Lin rewarded a lot of things, and sent people from the Ministry of Engineering to renovate the dilapidated palace of Mingyue Palace a few days ago. Before the Mingyue Palace there were no flowers and plants for viewing. This time, officials from the Ministry of Engineering opened up a flower field in the courtyard of the palace in accordance with the requirements of the five princesses, and planted a lot of flowers newly cultivated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The fifth princess also drew a drawing for them. According to the drawing, the officials erected a white fence around the flower field, and built two small wooden houses for kittens and puppies and rabbit nests beside the fence.
Although it looks strange, but the five princesses like it, they naturally follow suit.
Lin Feilu used to live in a small single-family villa with a garden of his own, and now it has been refurbished as he remembered, and it feels like it has a lot of old atmosphere.
It was also comforting her sense of loneliness in this strange time and space.
The long ears are still small, and when they see a new Persian cat, they don't fight with it, they just wag their tails around it. The Persian cat ignored it, licking its own claws gracefully.
Lin Feilu was squatting aside with Lin Zhanyuan to discuss a name for the new kitten, Song Yu walked over and said: "Princess, the palace people outside are here to inform that Master Xiao and Madam Xiao will come to see you. "
Lin Feilu has long learned from Xiao Lan that the Xiao family’s indifferent attitude after she fell out of favor, not to mention that she was not the granddaughter of the Xiao family, even if she was and has been neglected for so many years, she has not been favored again. Settle the truth about the past.
Xiao Lan also attended the banquet today. The little protagonist was too young to drink alcohol, so Xiao Lan drank some for her daughter. She had a small amount of alcohol and fell asleep under Qingyan's service after returning.
She also saw her parents at the banquet today. She probably knew that they would come over at the end of the banquet, and asked Lin Feilu a few words.
Hearing that people were coming, Lin Feilu glanced at Lin Zhanyuan, who was trying to give the Persian cat a name, but said nothing but raised his eyes to signal Song Yu.
Song Yu has been with her for so long. Of course he knew what the princess meant. He nodded and went out. He said to the waiting palace man: "The lady is not drinking and rests. Let them come back another day."
The palace man took the order and walked in after a while. Because he was Xiao Lan's parents, he didn't dare to despise, and came in to report truthfully: "Song Yu, Master Xiao and Madam Xiao said that they rarely enter the palace once. Since the empress has fallen asleep, they want to see the princess."
Song Yu smiled at him: "The princess is not in the palace, only His Royal Highness is here. Go and ask Master Xiao and Madam Xiao if you want to see her."
How can the palace people know if the princess is inside? Seeing this attitude, I knew it was because I didn’t want to see it inside. I quickly quit and said to the old man who was waiting outside:
Master Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, today is the birthday of the princess. Every palace invites princesses to play. Now people are not in the palace. Here, I don’t know when to come back. If the two of you really want to see each other, our Highness is now inside, and the minion can pass on it for you."
Your Highness?
Isn't that the foolish prince.
Master Xiao and Madam Xiao looked at each other. They came this time just to clear up their suspicions with their daughter, and they even thought about their rhetoric. After raising their daughter for more than ten years, they naturally knew what Xiao Lan was like. It's just that there is resentment in my heart, and I see my parents, and listen to them crying and complaining, and I will always soften my heart.
Even if you can't see your daughter, it's good to show your face in front of your granddaughter and show the love and care of your elders. After all, Xiao Lan relied on this daughter to regain her favor. The five princesses were still young and looked immature and simple. It was the time to cultivate feelings.
But what can you say to that fool? He didn't understand even after saying it! Do you count on him to help repair the relationship with your daughter, ruining their pains.
Mother Xiao's expression changed several times, and she turned her head and whispered to Father Xiao, "I'm afraid it's my mother who doesn't want to see us."
Now in the palace, Father Xiao dare not scold any unfilial daughter for having no conscience, his face became heavy and heavy, and he had to leave under the unchanging smile of the palace staff.
As soon as the two left, Song Yu went in to report.
Lin Zhanyuan had already figured out the name, and happily pointed to the puppy and said, "It's called Long Ear!" and pointed at the Persian cat, "It's called Short Ear!"
Lin Feilu fought hard with him, but in the end he didn't argue, so he could only accept the name with a short ear and sigh.
After Song Yu returned the report, she said with some worry: "Princess, Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao is the mother's mother after all. This time she has closed the door. If you go out and say something bad, how can you affect your reputation and your mother?"
Lin Feilu touched Short-eared head, and it narrowed its eyes comfortably: "Don't worry, they don't have the guts to talk nonsense."
If you guessed it right, the Xiao family still has to implement a gentle policy at this stage.
After eating a few more times behind closed doors, the method of inciting public opinion may be adopted.
Before that, let them taste what Xiao Lan has been left out in the cold.
Anyway, Lin Feilu likes tooth for tooth the most.
Song Yu nodded clearly, then took out a sachet from his cuff shyly, handed it over in embarrassment, and whispered: "Princess, this is a birthday gift prepared by the slave and maid. I have been busy before without a chance to give it to you. "
Lin Feilu handed the short ear to Lin Zhanyuan and happily took it over, "What is it?"
She opened the sachet, and inside was a bracelet strung with small beads, a bit like pink-purple crystals, shining in the sun.
Song Yu said: "The slaves and maids have nothing good. The water beads were bought by the slaves and the aunts in the palace. After the slaves and maids strung it together, they placed it in the altar for seven or forty-nine days, chanting and praying every day, hope this pearl Can bless the princess to grow up safely and be healthy."
This amethyst is called water beads here, and it is a very common piece of jewelry, but for Songyu's share, it is estimated that her savings have been spent. Although it is not as good as the jade beads sent by the palaces, the heart in it trumps everything.
Lin Feilu put it on her wrist without saying a word, and rushed to hug Song Yu's waist: "Thank you Song Yu! You are so kind to me!"
Song Yu's eyes were red, and she whispered: "It's the princess who treats the servants and the servants, and the servants remember them. This is not a precious thing, as long as the princess likes it."
Lin Feilu raised his wrist and asked Lin Zhanyuan: "Brother, do you look good?"
The crystal refracted the sunlight, and Lin Zhanyuan nodded: "It looks good!"
She received a lot of gifts today. The things sent by relatives and relatives of the emperor are still in the hall. Qingyan finished the record and reported to her one by one. Basically every palace gave gifts, even Concubine Hui.
After Lin Feilu listened, a small question mark appeared on his head.
How come there is no pretty one?
Doesn't he know that today is his birthday?
No way? He even knows that there are spies in his palace, does he know the birthday banquet that all palaces are discussing recently?
Hey, it's not something to covet him, even a basket of bamboo shoots.
It's just that in Lin Feilu's heart, they are all strangers in this deep palace. Although they were just the beauty of a nymphomaniac at first, she has sincerely regarded Xiaomei as a friend for so long.
After all, who doesn't love the gentle and beautiful little brother.
There are very few people who can be regarded as her friends.
After a busy day, Lin Feilu felt that he was more tired than stepping on an afternoon in Xi Guifei's palace. When the sky was dark, he washed and slept under Song Yu's service.
I don't know how long I slept, and I was confused and heard the sound of a small stone knocking on the window.
She woke up suddenly, too late to wear her shoes, and ran to the window barefoot. When he opened the window, a boy with black clothes and dark hair was sitting on the wall not far away. Qingyue Yinhui fell on him, and even the purple wind chimes under the moonlight seemed more beautiful than usual.
Lin Feilu stared at him for a while, then burst out laughing.
Song Jinglan flew down lightly, his footsteps lighter than night: "What are you laughing at?"
Lin Feilu said: "His Royal Highness always knocks on the window in the middle of the night, which reminds me of Romeo and Juliet."
Song Jinglan made a puzzled expression.
After Lin Feilu finished speaking, he felt that this metaphor was a bit unlucky, and he took a second time, then stretched out a little hand to the boy outside the window: "Where is my gift?"
Song Jinglan laughed: "How does the princess know that I am here to give you a gift?"
Lin Feilu: "Otherwise, what are you here for?" She tilted her head: "Is there another spy in my palace?"
He shook his head and smiled, the gentle moonlight filled his eyes, and he reached out and took a small wooden sculpture out of his arms, "Princess, happy birthday."
She is the one who carved the wood.
The nose, eyes, mouth, smile, and even the two small twitches on the head are vivid.
Lin Feilu didn't know he had this skill yet, and he looked at his small wooden sculpture and looked at him again. If this craft is placed in modern times, then the proper Professor Yang Mei.
She couldn't help but look at his hand.
The fingers of both hands are slender and strong. Because they hold the sword all the year round and there are shallow calluses on the fingertips, the winter frostbite wound has been healed, but there are still faint pink marks.
Seeing that she was not talking, Song Jinglan asked in a low voice, "Don't you like it?"
Lin Feilu patted his arm seriously: "Be confident in your craft!"
He laughed and his eyelashes drooped slightly: "Just like it, I have nothing to give to the princess, only these worthless gadgets."
"Who said that?" Lin Feilu retorted: "This piece of wood is really worthless, but it is now carved like me, then it is a priceless treasure! I will treat it as a family heirloom, and pass it on from generation to generation. !"
Song Jinglan laughed and shook his head: "Wood will rot."
Lin Feilu thought for a while: "His Royal Highness will be rich in the future, so let me carve a jadeite, so that it can last a long time."
He looked into her eyes, chuckled and nodded: "Okay."
