The fast-traveling girl has no feelings for her

Chapter 327 The Heiresses (23)

"What's the matter? Tell me first."

After Lin Shu finished speaking, she sat down on the seat behind her, because she would get tired and panicked if she stood for a long time.

"I would like to ask Si Huangjie to come to court tomorrow."

The sixth princess finally expressed her intention of coming.

Upcoming?

This request from the sixth princess was really beyond Lin Shu's expectation.

You must know that the original owner's body has been weak since she was a child. Although she moved away from the palace and built her own mansion outside the palace as an adult, and also held a casual position in the court, receiving some insignificant money, but these things about her He has never been to court in years.

Even Her Majesty the Empress once said in person that her fourth daughter has always been weak and cannot stand in the court for a long time, so she granted permission for the latter not to come to court.

In the past, many people were not optimistic about the succession of the fourth emperor's daughter, which was also related to this matter.

Because a princess who has never even entered the court is tantamount to being excluded from the court.

Seeing that the sixth princess made this request, she showed a look of hesitation, and Lin Shu couldn't help guessing, "Did something happen to you, and I need you to take a seat at the court and make a statement?"

Although Lin Shu has never actually been to the court, she has also been affected by court strife in the mission world, and she knows how powerful it is, since she was once the eldest lady of the Lin family's family, the secretary of the household department.

The sixth princess, who was told by Lin Shu what she wanted, immediately took a serious look at Lin Shu after hearing the words.

The other party was still the thin, white and frail woman. She still looked gentle and peaceful as she sat on the chair, without any hint of sharpness or aggression.

But the sixth princess vaguely felt that something had changed in the other party, but she couldn't figure out what had changed at the moment.

Because Lin Shu guessed her intentions, the sixth princess simply said frankly, "That's right, I would like to invite you to the court meeting tomorrow, just to hope that you can replace the royal sister and me when the mother decides who to receive the envoys of the Guishuang Kingdom." Say a few words."

"Actually, I originally wanted to rely on my own strength to win over the people in the court to help speak out, but Miss Wuhuang is also fighting for this seat now, and many people have been pulled over by her first, so I can only come here Please Si Huangjie, you..."

Lin Shu nodded slightly upon hearing this.

She has also heard about the competition between the fifth emperor and the sixth emperor to receive the envoys of the Guishuang Kingdom.

According to the meaning of the Sixth Emperor's words, it seems that the situation in the court is not good for her, and the Fifth Emperor's side has a greater advantage.

The fifth emperor's daughter had invited the original owner to her own house before, and on the surface she seemed to be thinking about the original owner, but in fact, she just wanted the original owner to willingly give up her side husband to her.

Although this person is used to being a man in front of outsiders, he is actually a narrow-minded and extremely selfish person in the mainland.

Even a person as easy to get along with as the original owner is unwilling to deal with this person.

For Lin Shu, the invitation from the sixth emperor to invite her to go to court tomorrow is a good opportunity for her to investigate in the palace.She really wanted to see the original owner's empress for a long time.

Therefore, after the sixth princess solemnly made her request, Lin Shu considered it for a while, and finally agreed to the matter.

Taking advantage of the sixth imperial daughter's presence, Lin Shu asked her about many things that happened in the court and abroad recently.

For example, a certain province suffered a spring drought, and at the moment it is carrying out water conservancy irrigation under the auspices of the Nine Emperor Girls, and the effect is very good.

I heard that the keel waterwheel used for irrigation was thought up by Li Yu, an official under her.

When the sixth princess said this, there was a hint of sourness and jealousy in her tone. She was dissatisfied with the fact that the empress had assigned Li Yu, the new top scholar, to the ninth imperial sister, but now she could only accept it helplessly. .

Another example is that the second princess has recently negotiated several large trade orders with other countries, because she has not won as much profit in her own country as before, which made several adults in the household department quite critical.

Another example is that the daughter of a minister in the court married a husband, and the man of another family married again. The six imperial daughters just talked about these trivial things to Lin Shu as if they were chatting.

Lin Shu memorized them one by one in case they were useful.

During the conversation between the two, they talked until late at night without knowing it.

If we continue to chat, we will go to court in three to five hours.

Seeing that it was too late tonight, the sixth princess bid farewell to Lin Shu and returned home. The two made an appointment to meet at the court tomorrow.

The next day, just after dawn, Lin Shu got up to freshen up.

Because she was going to go to court today, the servant who served her found the court dress she had never worn from the wooden box last night.When she finished washing, put on court clothes and sat in the carriage, she was still yawning.

After getting into the car, Lin Shu seized the time to squint.

The carriage outside was a little bumpy, and she in the carriage also swayed.

In a daze, she felt that someone seemed to be looking at her, and slowly opened her eyes.

A figure of a woman who was somewhat familiar to her suddenly caught her eyes. Before Lin Shu could take a closer look at this person's appearance, the other party only left a sentence of "Save your life, don't die so fast" and then disappeared suddenly up.

Her words made Lin Shu's brain tremble, and she suddenly opened her eyes.

In the swaying carriage, Lin Shu looked at the empty carriage in front of her and realized that she seemed to have had a dream just now.

But the dream was so real that she couldn't help but recall the identity of the woman in the dream.

She compared the other person's voice and general appearance with many people in her memory, but found nothing.

Just when she thought she was really having a short dream, the mysterious person who had appeared in front of her several times before suddenly appeared in her mind.

Could it be that this woman is the mysterious person?
With this thought, Lin Shu couldn't fall asleep at the back of her head.

Not long after, the carriage from the fourth imperial daughter's residence took her to the gate of the palace.

Because the entrance for officials to go to court is not the same as the gate for the emperor's relatives to enter the palace, horse-drawn carriages are not allowed to enter the former gate.

So Lin Shu got off the car in front of the palace gate.

With the sky turning pale, she was standing in front of the huge arched palace door and could already see the white marble steps in the distance and the magnificent court meeting hall behind the steps.

A gust of cold wind blew past in the early morning, making her body tremble unconsciously.

Just when she was worrying about how to walk such a long distance, four palace servants carrying a soft sedan chair came to her and stopped, saying that a royal highness ordered them to pick her up for a ride.

Lin Shu only thought that this was someone sent by the sixth princess who invited her here.

She glanced at the ministers of civil and military affairs who started to enter the palace one after another around her house, and guessed that she might not be able to hold on if she couldn't reach the jade steps, so she turned around and got into the soft sedan chair.

After seeing Lin Shu getting on the sedan chair, the four palace servants all lifted up the soft sedan chair and sent them all the way to the gate of the Chaoyi Hall.
