Chapter 426 Shangsi Festival 1st Update (4)
The two sisters wore the same waist-length embroidered Luoru in different colors. The front was tied with colorful ribbons. At the end of the ribbons, there was a pair of exquisite and small silver bells. The bells jingled as they walked, which was very eye-catching. The lower body was a flower-sprinkled cloud-puff pleated skirt. The skirt was designed to be very wide and large. When the wind blew, the wide skirt fluttered in the wind, like a fairy ascending to heaven, beautiful beyond words!
These two sets of clothes must have taken a lot of thought from Wang Shi of the second house. If there was no Caiwei, Du Wanru and her sister might really attract others when they put on this set. Unfortunately, with Caiwei, they were destined to become foils.
After Caiwei came in, when Du Wanqiu and others saw how stunning and beautiful she was, their smiles instantly cracked. They were so jealous that they could hardly keep the expressions on their faces. When others saw Caiwei's appearance after dressing up, they were more convinced that she would cause a sensation after entering the palace, and she might be favored by the emperor or the prince!
Du Ruhai glanced at Caiwei, and sighed for a moment before he began to teach the girls.
"Remember this, you must be humble and polite after entering the palace, and be careful in what you say and do, and never overstep the boundaries. Also, I heard that Ruizhu will marry the King of Qin soon, so you should accompany her more. When she gets married, she will be the Princess of Qin, and it will be difficult for you sisters to meet each other..."
Caiwei almost laughed out loud after hearing this. What a shameless Anguogong, what a high-sounding reason, what about accompanying Ruizhu, to put it bluntly, isn't it just to let them follow Li Ruizhu and get to know some princes and sons?
"Yes, thank you grandfather for your teachings!"
Sisters Du Wanqiu, Du Wanru, and Du Wanyue all bowed to Anguogong, and Caiwei followed them in the same way.
"Sister Wei!"
Wang also said: "It's rare that you have won the favor of the Queen Mother and brought glory to our Anguo Mansion. Grandmother is very happy for you. Speaking of which, our Anguo Mansion still has a girl in the palace. Now she is a beauty and lives in Jinglin Garden. If you can have time, go to see her for grandma, which can be regarded as fulfilling one of grandma's wishes."
As she said this, her eyes turned red.
Cai Wei smiled and said: "Don't be sad, don't worry, if I have time, I will definitely go to see her for you."
"Okay, I knew that you are a kind girl."
Wang stood up, supported Huamei's hand, and said: "It's almost time, let's go, it's better to go early and wait there, than to go late and be blamed by the superiors!"
The first lady, the second lady, the third lady and all the young ladies in the mansion followed the old lady out to see her off, even Du Wanqing, the youngest daughter of the second room who never showed up, followed out.
Today was the first time Caiwei met Du Wanqing. Because she was about to enter the palace, she had no mood to greet her. She just got to know her briefly and then left in the carriage.
In the carriage, Du Wanru and her sister were very nervous, talking non-stop and twisting the handkerchiefs in their hands. Caiwei was very calm, closing her eyes comfortably and taking a nap against the wall of the carriage.
Now, she has put her mind at ease. The queen has no intention of killing her. The lives of her and her family are not in danger for the time being.
Although the queen now intends to listen to the advice of the wife of the Duke of Liguo and take her as her adopted daughter and leave her to her son as a concubine in the future. But she believes that no mother in the world would like her son to marry a vain, snobbish, frivolous and superficial woman!
Therefore, she was confident enough to make the queen give up the plan of adopting her as her adopted daughter and stop interfering in her life...
After an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally stopped. Caiwei and the others lifted the curtain and realized that they had arrived at the north gate of the palace - Wan'an Gate. Foreign officials and nobles from various mansions did not enter the palace through this gate. Those who entered the palace from Wan'an Gate were all female relatives.
