Because Empress Xu summoned her, Miao Jin entered the palace yesterday.

She knew that Zhu Gaoxu had gotten married, but she did not go to watch the ceremony. Until today, she came to Kunning Palace to see the appearance of the princess of Gaoyang County.

Miao Jin was still wearing a Taoist robe and a bun. Today, the cotton fabric of this robe is softer than before and is more tailored. There is nothing strange about the clothes, but because her figure is not concealed, her coldness is like heroic and gentle as charming. The soft material is supported by her body. She inadvertently remembered the pepper and spring bamboo shoots that Zhu Gaoxu mentioned, and her ears became slightly hot.

When you walk into the grand and spacious Kunning Palace, the palace maids and eunuchs respectfully call them "Zhi Yue Zhenren", after all, they are the ones the Empress cares about.

Miao Jin was taciturn and ignored the palace servants. She was just not in the mood to speak... Her thoughts had been tangled thousands of times.

At first, I was very sad and watched as I was committed to marrying another wife. Miao Jin felt very uncomfortable.

However, isn’t it reasonable for the emperor’s legitimate son to get married when he was nineteen years old? Miao Jin’s identity is difficult to become the princess of that county.

If she was just the daughter of the Censor Jingqing, she had not been involved in the struggle for imperial power before, and had just met Gao Xu to become a princess, she might have a chance. However, her fate was in a mess, so Miao Jin could not blame Gao Xu, nor could she even blame the strange princess.

Since she can't be with him, she shouldn't be committed to others. Miaojin was both ashamed and annoyed when she thought of this. But who would know that in the end she didn't have to slap herself?

Alas, things in the world are unpredictable, and they are always so wrong.

At this moment, several people walked into Kunning Palace. When Miao Jin turned around and looked, in addition to the palace maid and eunuch, they were the princess Zhang and a strange girl wearing Zhaiyi. Only the princess and princesses could wear that Zhaiyi, and she must be the princess of Gaoyang County.

Miao Jin immediately looked at the princess of the county and saw that she was young, fair and elegant, shy, dignified and restrained. Somehow, Miao Jin felt a little close to the princess who "snatched" away Gao Yang King... Perhaps that thing was not something Miao Jin could get, so she did not have any complaints about being stolen.

"Oh! My aunt is also in Kunning Palace." Zhang greeted. She said enthusiastically to the princess of the county, "I am the sister whom the queen recognizes, and my younger brothers and sisters can also call her aunt."

The princess went forward and bent her knees slightly, and held Yubai's hands in front of her abdomen in a very good manner. Her voice was crisp and gentle, "I've seen my aunt."

"I am a monk, so I can call me Chi Yue." Miao Jin looked indifferent and became a Taoist nun a few years ago. She was used to this.

Miao Jin was wondering: It’s just that he didn’t see the emperor and the empress, why didn’t he see King Gaoyang come together?

However, Miaojin is not the one who broke the casserole and asked to the end, so she didn't ask. But Zhang had already taken the initiative to say: "The mother goes to change clothes and will arrive later. Gao Xu saw his elder brother, and the two were talking outside. If we don't talk too much, we came in and wait for the mother."

Miao Jin ignored it and pretended to think she wasn't talking to her.

At this time, Zhang said to the eunuch palace maid next to him: "Let's sister-in-law talk, you can go down."

"Yes." The slaves retreated one after another.

Miao Jin had seen it many times, and Zhang's mouth was very talkative. As expected, she was so familiar with the princess of the New County. She soon became as good as a sister, chatting and talking nonstop.

At this time, Zhang said again: "I heard that my younger brother and Lian Ying's daughter have old age?"

The princess of the county nodded gently: "I have seen my sister-in-law several times. Even my sister is about the same age as me, and she can speak well."

"It turns out that I am a friend in the boudoir. People are incomparable to their luck. My brother and sister are so lucky. After marrying a majestic prince, I look at the daughter of Lian's family. It's so miserable!" Zhang whispered, "That even girl was guarded by those Qiu Ba days and nights, and she was not spared from her menstruation. She was tortured to death."

Not to mention the little girl's princess, even Miao Jin was pale. Fortunately, she stood behind Zhang's side and did not let Zhang see her expression.

Of course, Miao Jin knew how the Lian Ying family was convicted because Lian Ying wanted to assassinate the emperor in public! Miao Jin was still vaguely afraid when she heard this.

The princess's face was scared and her eyes were red. After all, even the girl was someone she knew.

Zhang glanced at the princess of the county, but didn't want to stop. He whispered: "Even after the girl died, she was dragged out by Qiu Ba and let a group of evil dogs share the food. The skin on her head was torn off, and it was bloody..."

When the princess heard this, she kept shaking her head and cried, her eyes were as red as peaches, and her face was filled with tears, which made the rouge and water powder.

Just then, a shout came from outside: "The Empress is here!"

Zhang finally stopped talking and stood up quickly. The princess of the county also got up from the stool, her face full of tears, but she finally held back the crying.

Miaojin was very anxious when she saw the princess of the county. At this moment, the princess of the county looked over; Miaojin hurriedly seized the opportunity to stare at the princess of the county, and then shook her head gently.

Queen Xu had already walked to the door. Miaojin couldn't speak, but she didn't know if this little girl looked innocent.

"Oh, my daughter-in-law, why did you cry like this just after you cross the door? Who did you bully her?" Queen Xu looked at the county princess in surprise.

Zhang bowed his knees and held the tribute, but said nothing.

The county princess said sadly: "Just-in-law was talking to me just now. I suddenly remembered that the cute parrot at home was dead, and I couldn't help but feel sad..."

After hearing this, Empress Xu looked back and said, "Gao Xu's wife is so soft-hearted." She said, "Don't be sad. I suddenly remembered that there was a parrot in the harem, a rare thing in the Western Regions. It was a gift from the border general Song Sheng from Gansu to Beijing. The person came to bring the parrot over and I want to give it to the princess of Gaoyang County."

"Yes." The eunuch responded.

Queen Xu laughed and said, "Don't cry anymore now. Gao Xu is very fierce. Many people are afraid of him. No one dares to bully his wife."

"Thank you, Empress, Empress is so nice." The princess of the county said obediently.

Queen Xu smiled and said, "Okay, okay. Don't say I like this daughter-in-law, Gao Xu also likes it very much. I was worried before that my son Gao Xu was not satisfied, but now it seems that he is too worried. I heard from Zheng He that on the day of the wedding, Gao Xu treated you like a treasure, for fear of touching you."

The county princess said: "The queen loves her, but the prince doesn't bother you. This is a blessing I have cultivated in my previous life."

At this time, Miao Jin had already breathed a sigh of relief. When she looked at the prince's concubine Zhang silently, although Zhang's face was smiling, she smiled very stiffly.

After a while, the prince and Gao Xu also came in and saluted Queen Xu.

Gao Xu walked up to Miaojin again and said, "Hello, auntie, when will you enter the palace?"

The moment the two of them met, their eyes met, and she saw Gao Xu, who was tall and tall, wearing a big red-skinned man, but there was a faint sense of guilt and pity in her eyes. Miaojin was worried and she was in a panic, and she felt in her heart.

Why bother?

"Yesterday." Miao Jin only said two words when she returned to the gift.

The family talked about family matters in Kunning Palace. Miaojin found that Gao Xu was looking at her from time to time. But she did not respond and pretended not to know. In fact, Yu Guangli had been paying attention to his eyes.

As noon approached, Empress Xu left two sons and two daughters-in-law to have dinner. Miaojin was unwilling to participate in the royal family dinner, so she said goodbye first.

At this time, the emperor Zhu Di had just gotten off the imperial chariot, and Miao Jin had to go forward and pinch Ziwu Jue to see him. Zhu Di's eyes were very sharp, and he looked her up and down a little unscrupulously, and said, "It's almost time for lunch, and Gao Chi and Gao Xu are here, where are Miao Jin going?"

Miao Jin lowered her head and frowned slightly, saying, "I can't disturb the family banquet of the emperor. Please forgive me."

Zhu Di looked like he didn't know what to look for, but he didn't go to Kunning Palace immediately and said, "Miaojin is not suitable for becoming a monk, so it's better to return to the secular world."

Miao Jin said: "The emperor saw the original, I am obsessed with the path of immortality and dare not let down my master's high expectations."

"Has Zhang Sanfeng really appeared?" Zhu Di said a little unhappy, "If you are a person who is born, you should focus on your mind and have no emotions or desires. But when Jing Shishi passed away, I saw Miao Jin very sad."

Miao Jin had no choice but to say: "I have not yet attained enlightenment and still need to practice. My parents have the kindness of raising me, but I have not yet repaid my Taoism. My Taoism is too shallow to let go, which makes the emperor laugh."

"Well..." Zhu Di didn't say much, and then walked up the stone steps. Miao Jin hurriedly bowed and said, "Give me a visit to the emperor."

At this time, Zhu Di looked back at her again and turned his head a little reluctantly.

Miao Jin walked north from the wide brick floor, and the eunuch next to him couldn't help but whisper: "The emperor is busy with civil and military affairs every day, and he is not good at women; even if he is not close to noble women, he is the supreme and noble. However, the emperor is talking so much to Chi Yue Zhenren, which is really rare."

Miao Jin said coldly: "What do you want to say?"

The eunuch hurriedly bent down, "The real person is angry, I am talking too much, I only think what the emperor said makes sense." He whispered, "If the real person returns to the secular world, he will hope to be named a concubine!"

Miao Jin sneered: "Do you think I envy the concubine?"

The eunuch smiled boredly and said nothing.

Miao Jin glanced at him, but breathed a sigh of relief, "I know you have good intentions, so you don't have to take it to your heart."

"How dare I!" the eunuch said hurriedly, "You are the one summoned by the Empress. I have borrowed ten courages from me, and I dare not think of you in my heart."

Miao Jin whispered: "I saw the high walls of the harem, isolated from the world. Those palace ladies have to be here for the rest of their lives and cannot leave. Perhaps many people envy their noble status, but I am devoted to the Taoist temples in the deep mountains, not envying silk, satin, but only envying freedom."

Besides, Miaojin was born in a scholarly family, so she didn't believe in the influence of etiquette and education. If she was a maid serving two husbands, who would she be?

If she was willing to commit herself to King Yan, she would have done this long ago. When she was still in Peking, the meaning of Jianwen's monarch and minister was to lust Zhu Di; she was never willing... just because she thought she had been decided and was destined to enter the palace to be the imperial concubine of Emperor Jianwen! She had never seen Jianwen, but was just unwilling to serve a man, and shamelessly with the other.
