Chapter 88: Qianqian is out of control
As soon as Cheng Shangshu got the news that the Huai'an Wang couple had returned from Emperor Xuanyuan, he immediately rushed over. He went on an envoy with King Huai'an this time, and he was ordered by Emperor Jinglie to monitor King Huai'an and Tianji Xing, and King Huai'an and Tianji Xing actually met with Emperor Xuanyuan in private, so how could he not be anxious?
And when he arrived in front of the Huai'an royal house, he happened to meet Chu Qianqian coming out of the room.
"You are the maidservant next to Princess Huai'an, right? King Huai'an and Tianji Xing can be in the room? The old man has something important to see King Huai'an. ”
Chu Qianqian knew about Yu Chimu and Cheng Yin back then, so she didn't have a good impression of Cheng Shangshu, and Cheng Shangshu said that she was Chi Xiaoman's maidservant, although she was indeed a handmaid pretending to be a Tianji Star at present, but when she heard it said bluntly from others, she was still very unhappy.
"The king and princess of Huai'an have rested. ”
"Rest at this hour?" Cheng Shangshu looked skeptical. Dinner is going to be served in less than an hour, and the banquet is set up by Emperor Xuanyuan, don't King Huai'an and Tianji Xing know?
"The prince and the princess confessed like this, so Cheng Shangshu please go back first!" She naturally didn't mean to pass it on for him, on the one hand, she herself had just been kicked out of the room, and secondly, she knew what the pavilion master and Chi Xiaoman went to see Emperor Xuanyuan and Prince Xuanyuan for, and she also knew what Cheng Shangshu was worried about, and there was no need for him to rush to see the pavilion master.
"An hour later, Emperor Xuanyuan set up a banquet in the Jinhe Palace, and asked the Huai'an King and his wife to attend on time, so as not to let the people of the Shengxing Dynasty feel that our people in Yasukuni are rude. Although Cheng Shangshu was very dissatisfied with Chu Qianqian's attitude, he also understood that some minions were good at fighting people, and his relationship with King Huai'an was not good. Tianji Xing is on the side of King Huai'an again, and Tianji Xing's maid can't be offended at present. I can only leave these words behind.
"The slave knows. "She has to call herself a slave, she is very aggrieved in her heart, but she can't let Cheng Shangshu see the flaws. This time, she was able to follow the Pavilion Master. is also thanks to the identity of "Princess Huai'an's personal maid". Besides, she knew that the pavilion master had a task to explain to her, and her identity could not be revealed.
Cheng Shangshu glanced at her a little strangely, but didn't say anything more, turned around and left.
Chu Qianqian was a little nervous at his glance. She swept her hair, her hairstyle and clothes were the same as the first-class mustache in the Huai'an Palace, could it be that the tone of her voice was wrong?
She has never paid attention to the tone of voice that a slave should use, and there are no slaves in the Shadow Pavilion, and the children of the rivers and lakes come to everything by themselves.
Never mind. Anyway, it is impossible for Cheng Shangshu to know her true identity. After thinking about it for a while, she simply didn't want to, and planned to take a good look at the topography of the palace of the Shengxing Dynasty, and come back half an hour later to inform the pavilion master about the dinner.
#
Attending the palace dinner, whether you are the host or guest, you naturally have to dress up well. Of course, Chi Xiaoman's outfit also prepared the outfit that a princess should have, but this kind of formal dress makes Chi Xiaoman look like a head and two big, especially when he wears formal clothes. It was bound to have to comb that complicated hairstyle, which required patience and a pair of skillful hands, which she could not learn.
However, these things are expensive as a princess, and of course she does not need to do them herself. Chu Qianqian is nominally her handmaiden. This errand naturally fell on Chu Qianqian's head.
Although Chu Qianqian was reluctant to serve Chi Xiaoman to change her clothes and comb her hair, the order was given by Wei Chimu, and she could only hold back her heart if she wanted to complain.
Chi Xiaoman changed into a fuchsia palace dress. On the chest is a rather ornate peony embroidery, covered with a golden-red gauze robe. It makes her complexion white and red.
Chu Qianqian looked at Chi Xiaoman with a lot of unpleasantness in her heart. She didn't think she was worse than Chi Xiaoman, if that dress was worn on her. It must also be noble and gorgeous, Chi Xiaoman just won the identity of the princess of the Shengxing Dynasty and Tianji Xing.
"Chu Qianqian, it's time for you to show yourself later, maybe you can charm any prince of the Shengxing Dynasty, even the crown prince, then you can fly on the branches as a phoenix!" Chi Xiaoman dragged the floor-length skirt, walked to the bronze mirror and sat down, and looked at Chu Qianqian from the bronze mirror with a smile and said.
This time, Wei Chimu didn't wait on the sidelines, he received news from the Shadow Pavilion that the assassin who wanted to assassinate him on the wedding night already had an eyebrow, so he went to deal with this matter first.
It is precisely because of his absence that the atmosphere between Chi Xiaoman and Chu Qianqian is even more tense.
"Hmph, who is rare of those!" She glared at Chi Xiaoman fiercely. She has no interest in becoming a Venerable Master of the Shengxing Dynasty at all, even if the queen of the Shengxing Dynasty asks her to be her, she will not be moved.
All she wants is Yu Chimu, only the pavilion master of their Shadow Pavilion and the king of Huai'an in Yasukunia......
And it's okay that Chi Xiaoman didn't mention it, she got angry when she mentioned that she wanted her to perform at the dinner party, and before the pavilion master left, he actually ordered her to dance at the dinner party? If she wants to kill someone, she can not blink her eyes, but if she wants her to dance to a group of men, what is this!
"Okay, it's not rare, but at least it gives you a chance to dance to show the prince, doesn't it?" Chi Xiaoman didn't take her anger seriously, just raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Mu ...... I've never seen you dance, have you?"
"No, but even if—"
Chi Xiaoman interrupted her, straightened his cloud-like hair, and said casually: "Don't stay there all the time, come and comb my hair first." ”
Seeing Chu Qianqian glaring at her resentfully, she reluctantly walked behind her, took a horn comb from the mirror, and began to comb her hair. Chi Xiaomancai said again: "I can also be regarded as giving you a chance to show Xiàn, women can show the most feminine posture when dancing, and you can dance this dance, the thing is done, but it is a great achievement, maybe you can return to your identity as the head of the law enforcement hall." ”
Chu Qianqian's heart moved, and it was naturally her wish to restore her status as the head of the law enforcement hall.
Her hand combing her hair paused, "Is this what the prince said?"
Although Wei Chimu asked her to obey Chi Xiaoman's arrangement, she didn't promise anything, so she was quite suspicious of what Chi Xiaoman said.
"You can only trust me. Besides, you don't have a choice, Mu Ke asked you to listen to my arrangement. If you look good, I will help you say a few good words. A smile tugged at his lips. "I think my words still carry some weight in front of Mu. ”
Her smile made Chu Qianqian feel dazzling, but she couldn't refute it. Let's listen to her call Wei Chimu's name so intimately...... Chu Qianqian couldn't hold back the anger in her heart for a while, dropped the comb, and reached out to pinch Chi Xiaoman's neck.
"If it weren't for you...... If it weren't for you...... "She's gone crazy, and the strength in her hands is getting heavier.
Chi Xiaoman's face flushed, and he felt that he was about to lose his breath. She didn't expect Chu Qianqian to be so excited, so she could only say hard: "You...... Are you sure...... To be in this...... Kill me?"
Chu Qianqian's hands trembled, and these words made her sober up. Indeed, she can't kill Chi Xiaoman here. She stayed with Princess Huai'an was known to everyone in the envoys, and if Princess Huai'an died, she would be the first to be held responsible!
Yu Chi Mu...... I definitely won't let her go......
There is one thing she has to admit - Wei Chimu loves Chi Xiaoman deeply.
She let go of her hand and took a few steps back, feeling the urge to flee from here.
"Where are you going, back, back!" Xiao Man gasped and stopped Chu Qianqian, who was about to open the door and leave.
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you by mistake?" Pressing one hand on the door, Chu Qianqian didn't look at her, but said coldly.
"Do what you have to do. Xiao Man smoothed down and said, "Comb my hair first." If the things at the dinner are done, I can not blame what happened in the past, and Wei Chimu will not know about it, after the matter is completed. Your credit is still yours. ”
Chu Qianqian was stunned for a moment, she really didn't understand Chi Xiaoman, but for her. It is naturally best if Chi Xiaoman can not mention what happened just now.
She walked back to Xiaoman and silently picked up the horn comb. Re-pull Chi Xiaoman's hair.
This time, neither of them spoke. The pinch marks on Xiao Man's neck made her skillfully cover up the past with disguise techniques.
In fact, Chi Xiaoman was also relieved, just now she was not sure whether Chu Qianqian would really let go of her hand, if her words did not wake up the other party, then she would definitely die.
Fortunately, she won the bet, although Chu Qianqian was crazy, she had not completely lost her mind.
And Yu Chimu rushed back after Xiao Man finished dressing up, and he didn't notice what happened between Xiao Man and Chu Qianqian.
The two walked towards the Jinhe Hall together.

The lanterns in the palace are hung high, in front of the Jinhe Hall is the stage for tonight's performance, the palace is the seat of Emperor Xuanyuan and the empress, and on both sides is the seat of the envoys of the Yasukuni and several elders of the Shengxing Dynasty.
The big red carpet paved out from the Jinhe Palace, reaching the outside of the palace gate, surrounded by delicate and gorgeous palace lights, and the red gauze and colorful silk fluttered in the night breeze.
Even though Emperor Xuanyuan didn't have a good impression of King Huai'an, who let him snatch the Tianji Star. But after all, King Huai'an is the prince of Yasukuni and the identity of the envoy, so on the surface, Emperor Xuanyuan still has to be politely entertained, so there is this dinner.
Chi Xiaoman stepped into the gate of Jinhe Palace with Yu Chimu, and they were followed by Cheng Shangshu and several more important Yasukuni officials. The total number of envoys on their envoy this time was hundreds, of course, not all of them were qualified to participate in this kind of palace dinner, and there were only a few people invited by Emperor Xuanyuan.
After taking their seats in order, Emperor Xuanyuan introduced several ministers of the Shengxing Dynasty to King Huai'an, and then announced the beginning of the dinner.
Emperor Xuanyuan only acted with such courtesy by entertaining, and his attitude obviously did not accept the identity of King Huai'an as his son-in-law.
Yu Chimu naturally felt it, but it didn't matter, because Xiaoman was already the princess of Huai'an, which was an indisputable fact.
The dancing girls who performed on the stage flew with colorful sleeves, and everyone began to stagger.
After a song, King Huai'an suddenly said to Emperor Xuanyuan: "The dancing girl of your dynasty is really graceful, which makes people want to be intoxicated, and I can't help but express it, why don't I offer a dance to persuade wine, thinking that the dinner party will be fun, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?"
"Okay! The prince of Huai'an has a heart. Emperor Xuanyuan said happily.
I saw that Yu Chimu clapped his hands, and a woman walked in outside the palace, with a beautiful appearance, dressed in pale pink silk clothes and trousers, and as soon as she came in, she unceremoniously took a jar of at least twenty catties of wine from the seat of the courtiers of the Shengxing Dynasty and danced.
