Chapter 230 I Want to Live with Ningning

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes and said, "When the guards brought us here just now, the carriage deliberately bypassed the road of the East Four Palaces. I saw a bridge over there."

"So, I think we have to go around and get on the bridge later."

The ladies looked at each other and frowned to recall.

Was there a bridge just now?

They didn't notice it because they were busy enjoying the beautiful scenery of the palace.

Besides, it's so cold outside, who would often lift the curtain to look outside.

Ye Shangyi took the initiative to stand up and said coldly: "Then you can go there by yourself."

"I want to find a palace maid to row a boat for me, otherwise, it's too far and too cold to go around from here to the bridge over there!"

Shen Ningning didn't care and blinked her big eyes: "Okay, then I'll go there by myself. Who else wants to go with me?"

After the little girl asked in a soft voice, the ladies hesitated.

Ye Shangyi said directly: "If you are willing to go with me to find the eunuch in charge, follow me now."

After she said that, Xie Yuanjiu stood beside her.

"Ningning, I don't remember if there is a bridge on the way here, so I'd better follow him to find the eunuch in charge." Xie Yuanjiu said to the little guy.

Shen Ningning had no objection.

Ye Shangyi usually had a wide network of contacts in the circle of noble ladies, and many ladies were willing to follow her.

Therefore, of the 19 people except her, 12 were willing to follow her.

The remaining few believed that there was a bridge, so they were willing to follow Shen Ningning.

So, the two groups of people separated on the left and right by the lake and acted separately.

Mo Lingwei, who was standing on the high platform in the distance, saw it and followed the pink and white little figure with his eyes.

He raised his thin lips and sneered: "These idiots, don't they know to follow Shen Ningning?"

Don't they know that the little guy was invited to the palace by him more times than all of them combined?

Chen Shaobei beside him smiled: "Your Highness, if I were you, I would start to worry."

"Why?"

"The princess performed so well, Concubine Rong must have chosen her to be the female official accompanying the Ninth Prince."

"Wishful thinking." Mo Lingwei said coldly, and then walked down the Star Picking Platform.

Shen Ningning led six people, like an outing, she stood in front, waving little hands.

"Be careful, don't step on the ice, be careful not to fall into the lake."

The ladies listened to her words, holding hands with each other, talking and laughing.

The atmosphere, which was not familiar enough, suddenly became lively.

An eight or nine-year-old girl in a blue skirt walked to Shen Ningning.

She was delicate and fair, and whispered to Shen Ningning: "You are right, Ye Shangyi and the others made the wrong choice."

"Huh? Are you so sure that I chose the right way?" The little girl asked back with a smile.

The blue-skirted girl smiled, extremely shy: "My aunt is Concubine Rong. I have visited her in the palace several times and passed by here."

Shen Ningning was surprised: "So you are from the Qi family?"

The blue-skirted girl nodded: "My name is Qi Xiuwei."

She is one of the five specially invited noble ladies.

Shen Ningning was very excited and became enthusiastic. She asked her about her godmother Shen Siyi.

Unexpectedly, Qi Xiuwei looked a little terrified when she heard Shen Siyi's name.

"I don't know. When I was born, she had been married for a long time." Qi Xiuwei said.

She looked at Shen Ningning's face carefully: "Princess, I advise you not to ask about it in the future."

"I heard from my mother that my grandmother didn't get along with your godmother and wanted to drive her out."

"However, Prime Minister Xie took your godmother away soon. Since then, the two families have cut off contact. At home, your godmother's name is a taboo. They don't let me mention it!"

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes and listened to the words, a little at a loss.

She had no idea what happened in the past.

She was just a little sorry, and said softly: "Sorry, I won't ask next time!"

Qi Xiuwei smiled generously: "What's the matter, you don't know, it's okay, just call me Xiaowei!"

While they were talking and laughing, they had already walked to the other side of the lake.

The lady behind them pointed happily in front: "Look, there is indeed a bridge."

The misty clouds on the lake, like the silk of fairies, gently swayed back and forth on the water.

Shen Ningning walked onto the bridge and immediately turned back to remind the people behind her: "This bridge is too slippery, let's line up, grab each other's clothes, and walk forward little by little!"

Everyone echoed and agreed.

When Shen Ningning and the others crossed the long bridge and arrived at the Waterside Flower Dock.

The three aunts, serious and smiling, were already waiting at the door of the Flower Dock with ten little palace maids with their heads down.

There was a table next to them, and in the incense jar on the table, a stick of incense had just burned halfway.

When they saw Shen Ningning and the others appear, the three aunts nodded calmly.

"You ladies have worked hard. There is hot ginger tea over there. Drink some to drive away the cold."

"After that, the palace maid will take you to the warm room next to it to avoid the wind. We will wait for the rest of the ladies to arrive."

However, after the incense stick burned out, Xie Yuanjiu and the others were not seen.

There was no way, the eldest aunt would not wait any longer, but sent two young palace maids to lead the way for them.

After another stick of incense, they hurriedly arrived.

Because of the hurried pace, a lady slipped when she was on the bridge.

She walked to her aunt in tears: "Help me call the imperial physician quickly, my arm is cut."

The eldest aunt took a look at her injuries, pursed her lips and said seriously: "Miss Gao, you can go home."

The lady was stunned: "What? Are you mistaken? I am injured, not guilty. Why do you want to drive me out of the palace?"

The eldest aunt faced everyone with a sharp and majestic tone.

"It is very respectable to be a female official to accompany the prince, but you must be careful and cautious because you are serving the prince."

"If you are impatient and impetuous, you can't even take care of yourself, let alone work by the prince? Therefore, you no longer meet our requirements for female officials."

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes and watched the lady surnamed Gao being taken away crying.

Ye Shangyi and Xie Yuanjiu had different expressions. They just went to find the eunuch in charge, but they didn't expect the eunuch to ignore their request.

They also said that they were making trouble for no reason!

A lady quarreled with the eunuch because of this, and at this moment, she was also sent away by the eldest aunt.

"Ladies, you are not the masters of the palace now, and you have not become female officials yet. Therefore, the palace servants are not your maids and servants, and will not obey your orders."

"The reason why you are late today is that you are not ready yet. I must solemnly declare that when you come here, before you have a rank, you have to rely on yourself for everything, not any palace servants."

Ye Shangyi and the others were scolded. No matter how ugly their faces were or how unwilling they were in their hearts, they had to bear it.

Because they all had one goal, they wanted to become female officials of the emperor.

Only Shen Ningning rubbed her eyes because she felt a little sleepy.

She got up too early in the morning and didn't wake up at all.

At this time, the eldest aunt said: "The ladies who came first can choose the house to live in first."

"The house is one room per person, warm in the south, and slightly cold in the north by the water." The eldest aunt told everyone the best house location.

But there are only five rooms in the south, and those who choose later can only go to the north room to suffer the cold!

Shen Ningning took her little feet and was about to walk over to see the room.

Suddenly! Xie Yuanjiu called her, "Sister Ningning, wait."

The eldest aunt looked at her and saw Xie Yuanjiu stepping out with worry in her eyes.

She asked softly, "Ningning is my sister. She is too young and there are no palace servants here to serve her."

"I don't think she can live in a room by herself. Aunt, can I live with her?"

Recently, my wisdom tooth has been aching for a week. I couldn't stand it anymore and went to the dentist today. I didn't expect that when I was lying there, the dentist said: There is a rotten hole and it needs to be extracted. So I had my tooth extracted... I feel so uncomfortable. I will update one less chapter today. I will have a good rest. Thank you for your understanding.
