The Double Soul of Red Mansions

Chapter 54 Peeking

Daiyu lived in a bedroom shared by two that night, but fortunately there was a screen to separate the small space between the two of them, otherwise Daiyu really didn't know how to sleep.Growing up so big, Daiyu has never lived in the same room with others like this.

Gao Rongyu was lying on the bed, listening to the movement on the other side of the screen, with a knowing smile on his face.

"Miss Lin, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep on the first night!" Gao Rongyu said affirmatively. It was the same when he was in the same room with others on the first night after entering the palace, but at that time Lin Daiyu was lucky and lived alone between.Now in the imperial concubine's palace, this kind of privilege is no longer there, Gao Rongyu knows the insecurity and loneliness of being in the same room with others for the first time.

"Miss Gao hasn't slept either!" Since Lin Daiyu practiced martial arts, she has become more sensitive to irrelevant perception than ordinary people. Gao Rongyu can know that she is not asleep, so she also knows that Gao Rongyu on the other side of the screen cannot sleep either.

Gao Rongyu sat up from the bed with a smile and said, "Since we can't sleep, why don't we talk together?"

Daiyu responded, and also got up from the bed.Gao Rongyu put on a light green gown on the outside, crossed the screen and came to Daiyu.The room they lived in was simple, with a bed, a wardrobe, a simple dresser and a coffee table.

Daiyu invited Gao Rongyu to sit down on the twig, picked up the water glasses on the table and poured them each a glass of water, saying, "Don't you know how old Miss Gao is this year?"

"11 years old, three years older than you." Gao Rongyu said with a smile, "How about calling your sister?"

Lin Daiyu nodded, she knew that she was the youngest, the eldest princess was almost 12 years old after all, her attendants were all about the same grade, and she was just special, her entry into the palace was just an arrangement under her rights, Compared with these attendants, it is a bit special.

Seeing that Lin Daiyu was still wearing a veil, Gao Rongyu said worriedly, "What does the imperial doctor say about my sister's face?"

"They said they used dirty things." Lin Daiyu didn't want to talk about her face, so she changed the subject and smiled at Gao Rongyu, "I don't know where Sister Gao's house is?"

"I come from Lingnan, which is rich in products and is a very beautiful place." Speaking of her hometown, Gao Rongyu smiled immediately, and her eyes were no longer polite and alienated. Daiyu saw Gao Rong at a glance Yuyu really likes his hometown so much.

"Sister Gao likes her hometown so much, why did she enter the palace? Lingnan is not close to the capital. It is very likely that Sister Gao will never return to the place where you were born and raised for many years." Lin Daiyu held Playing with the empty teacup, he said with a smile, "Sister Gao's parents must be very reluctant."

Gao Rongyu also knew in her heart that she obeyed orders and came to the palace as a pawn, so she would not go back so easily.It's just that she can't help herself to resist now. All she can do is to satisfy that person as much as possible, so that her parents and younger brother can live a safe life.

Gao Rongyu has experienced many things at such a young age. She felt a little sad because of Daiyu's words, but there was no other expression on her face. Instead, she smiled and said to Lin Daiyu: "As the saying goes, people go to high places. The water flows to the lower places, if you can have a good future, then it is worth it. I am no better than my sister, I have a father who is an excellent minister."

Gao Rongyu's words made Daiyu a little unhappy.What she hates most is that people always use Lin Hai as an argument. Now Lin Hai is indeed in an unusual position, but the more this is the case, the more unhappy Lin Daiyu feels.The sadness and helplessness of Wei Bing's unknown actions made her feel uncomfortable.

"Then I wish Sister Gao can get what she wants." Lin Daiyu said with a smile, "In the palace, there is nothing wrong with asking for a future."

Gao Rongyu nodded and said, "Miss Xue has now become the side concubine of Prince Lian's residence, she is truly a blessing."

A prince is nothing more than a main concubine and two side concubines, and Xue Baochai occupies one, which in anyone's eyes, is a great blessing.Especially now that Prince Lian's concubine has been infertile for many years, if Xue Baochai can give birth to a young prince, then in the eyes of everyone, it will not be a firm foothold in Prince Lian's mansion.

When Gao Rongyu talked about Xue Baochai at this moment, there was also a hint of temptation in it.She wanted to know how the relationship between Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu was, and whether the families represented by the two had close contacts. All of this was Gao Rongyu's duty as a spy in the palace.From the moment she entered the palace, Gao Rongyu knew that she had stepped into a conspiracy in her life, it was easy to get in, but it was definitely difficult to get out.

For Xue Baochai to suddenly become the concubine of Prince Lian's mansion, Daiyu was really confused.But Daiyu also knew in her heart that such a situation must be what Xue Baochai wanted to see.

"I have to congratulate Sister Xue. I was sick this time, but I missed her good days unexpectedly. Fortunately, it's not too late. Now it's just a marriage bestowed by the Holy One. There are still some days before I enter Prince Lian's mansion. Sisters, This will naturally send a blessing at that time." Lin Daiyu said with a smile, she had complicated feelings for Xue Baochai, but just talking about Xiangling, Daiyu still felt that she should thank Xue Baochai.

It's just that Daiyu finally knew that in Xue Baochai's eyes, her sincere gratitude was nothing more than a settlement between you and me.Xue Baochai thought in her heart that the matter of her serving as a student was a favor of Lin Daiyu, and the matter of Xiangling was that she had repaid the favor.

"My younger sister has a good relationship with Miss Xue." Gao Rong said, "It's really enviable. I really don't have many good sisters in Kyoto."

"There will be in the future." Lin Daiyu said with a smile.

"What my sister said is right, we will not be good sisters in the future." Gao Rongyu replied with a smile, "As a younger sister, it may be normal for her to be promised to a few princes. You can't deny my sister."

Gao Rongyu knew that Daiyu was not easy to get close to when everyone was learning the rules together, and she also knew that Daiyu would be a little steadfast if she said this, but she couldn't help it, she knew she had to figure it out, Lin's position.

"Sister Gao, don't talk nonsense. Daiyu never thinks about the prince." Lin Daiyu concealed her displeasure, and said lightly, "Sister, I just want someone with one heart, the royal family? I never thought of that." .”

"Sister, don't be angry, I really can't speak." Gao Rongyu held Daiyu's hand and said, "It's just that my sister's family background, appearance and talent should match the best prince. I heard The three princes below are all the best, and none of them have a concubine."

"It's getting late, sister, go back to bed." Daiyu put the teacup on the table, implying that she was seeing off guests.However, Gao Rongyu was not angry at all when he got Daiyu's cold face when he tried it for the first time.On the contrary, I was a little happy.That person must be happy to know that the girl from the Lin family has no intentions for any prince.

Gao Rongyu stood up, Shi Shi ran to his bedside, cast a slightly bright candlelight and looked at himself in the mirror.Gently stroking the beautiful face with his hand, he felt a burst of sadness in his heart, when can he go back and take another look at the person who is engraved into the marrow of his bone?Is there any hope in this life?

She is also like Daiyu, she never thinks about those people standing on the clouds, what she wants is to live forever and be single-minded.It's just that now, every step of the way is startling, this person has long been unable to control himself, only this heart, she can hold on tightly.

Gao Rongyu didn't sleep well that night, but Lin Daiyu slept extra sweetly.

Early the next morning, Lin Daiyu and the other three accompanied the eldest princess to school.In the palace, the princess also has to go to school and be literate.Now the four princes have started to work in the court, and the princess is not married, so the school is basically educating the princess.

"Yu'er, I'm really happy to see you recover!" Lin Daiyu was hugged by Jiang Huilan as soon as she entered school.

"Whelan, let me go quickly, you will take off the veil." Now you can't wear a felt hat when you come to school. After all, you have to study, and this felt hat is really inconvenient.But once the bangs on Daiyu's forehead were down, as long as she put on a veil, there would be no problem.

Jiang Huilan hurriedly let go of Daiyu and said with a smile, "Is your face still not healed yet? Didn't the imperial doctor next to the Holy Majesty say that taking medicine will heal?"

"It's better than before." Lin Daiyu smiled, "But most of them are still the same, and there is no improvement. Are you okay with the second princess now?"

"Very good, the second princess is very nice." Jiang Huilan smiled and said close to Lin Daiyu's ear, "You don't know, the third princess is the most lively around now. That Zhou Jinlan and Wu Qingqing are both given to the third princess. It was too lively."

Lin Daiyu smiled when she heard the news, Lan Ye beside her had already said the news, both Wu Qingqing and Zhou Jinlan were interested in the second prince born by Concubine Zhou Gui, and although the third princess was born to Concubine Lan, one of the four concubines, However, she has a good relationship with the second prince Zhao Yi. The two really took great pains to take the position of the second princess.

Zhou Jinlan was considered a proud person in Lin Daiyu's eyes before, but she didn't expect to meet Wu Qingqing now and encounter the word love, which really made Daiyu a little incomprehensible.

"Come back, Huilan, it's time for class." Lin Daiyu looked at a girl next to the second princess and waved to Jiang Huilan with a smile, and said with a smile, "Hurry up, let's talk together after school."

"Okay." Although Jiang Huilan has a temper, she knows the rules. In such a serious place in school, she would never dare to be presumptuous.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Lin Daiyu walked to the only vacant seat behind the eldest princess and sat down. Just as she was about to open the book on the table to read, she heard a cold snort in her ear.

"Miss Wu has a bad throat?" Lin Daiyu laughed.

"You, you're not feeling well, stay away from me." Wu Qingqing can't forget the pain and itching on her body after she came back from showing off her power last time. Now she thinks that Lin Daiyu infected her with all her heart, so she saw Lin Daiyu at this moment. Being next door to me, I was very unhappy to see Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu smiled slightly, but said nothing.Her face was poisoned but not really sick. She never thought that this Wu Qingqing was so unintimidated that she turned into a paper tiger with just a few words.

Wu Qingqing looked at Lin Daiyu ignoring her, with a somewhat embarrassing expression on her face. Seeing her husband walk in, she reluctantly withdrew her gaze and sat there waiting for class.
