CHAPTER 62

It's impossible to hear such news by accident and say that you don't feel anything. Xiyan was lying on the bed, unable to tell what it was like. It's not sadness, it's not jealousy, it seems to be relieved, and it's a little worried. There will be more and more such things in the future, and no one knows how many concubines the king will marry. She sighed softly. Along the way, she was indeed tired, so she thought about it casually and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, the princess sent someone over, saying that she was going to eat at her at noon. Yuexiang went back and forth a few times, and saw that Xiyan didn't mean to get up at all. Seeing that time passed little by little, she finally couldn't help it and rushed to Xiyan's bed.

"Mother, wake up. ”

"What's the matter, I'll sleep again. Xiyan was groggily pulled up from the bed by Yuexiang, this little girl is becoming more and more unruly.

"The princess sent for her in the morning to deliver a message, and at noon she was to dine at her. You have to hurry, it's too late. Looking at Xiyan's sleepy appearance, she was a little unbearable, but if she didn't get up again, she would go late, and the princess would definitely be angry.

"Ah, that's it, yes, yes, I know, I'll get up. She got out of bed with her eyes half-open, watered, and washed her face. Yuexiang helped her to sit down in front of the vanity mirror and began to busily comb her hair, while Qiu Ying brought her clothes.

"Keep it simple. She asked, her head was already heavy, and she brought some decorations, afraid that she would have to fold her head before she went out.

"The king will be there, too, you don't want to be compared. Yuexiang muttered, but her hands didn't stop, and she was confused when she went out, this is in the palace, not outside, so don't worry about it casually.

"It's not about choosing a concubine. Xiyan said disappreciatively. She wasn't going to abuse herself for any reason.

"Compete for favor. "Tsukika has finished the work at hand. "Niangniang, you have to cheer up and please the king. ”

"Little girl. Xiyan looked at it in the mirror, it was not bad, she stood up and patted Yuexiang's head, and walked to the side of the autumn warbler. The autumn warbler prepared a lake blue coat with pale pink edges, and the sunset looked very refreshing when worn on the body.

"I went. She yawned and patted her face with her hand. Hurry up and wake up.

It wasn't too late for her to go, and Zisu was chatting with Concubine Li over there. Xiyan went over and saluted.

"I just came back yesterday, I'm tired, right?" Zi Su put down the melon seeds in his hand and asked softly. Xiyan's complexion didn't look very good, and he looked sleepy.

"It's okay, thank you for your concern. Xiyan said cautiously.

"After going out, it seems that you have lost a lot of weight?" Zi Su said to Concubine Li.

Concubine Li said, "It's thin." The king is really good, the side concubine is just sick, so she is entrusted with this important task, and she is not distressed. ”

"How do you arrange the king, if you work, you don't need to send a side concubine. What do you say? Shisu pretended to be annoyed.

"I'm a solid skin, so it's better to go. Xiyan said with a smile.

"Hey, no wonder the king loves you, I can't do it. Concubine Li said with a smile and looked at Shiso. Shiso smiled, unable to see any expression.

"By the way, wait for Concubine Jin to come over, this is the first time you have met. I should have sent her to salute you yesterday, but I was worried that you would be tired, so I didn't let her go. We'll see you later. Shisu looked at Xiyan and observed her expression, but she was disappointed, and there was no special change on Xiyan's cautious smiling face, "Okay." ”

As he was talking, a tall beauty in red came in from outside, with a goose egg face, big eyes, plump lips, and a pair of thick eyebrows.

"Say hello to my mother. "The voice is crisp and bright.

"This is the side concubine, let's salute. Zi Su nodded and looked at Xi Yan on it, "Xi Yan, this is Concubine Jin." ”

Concubine Jin listened, turned around, and bent her knees slightly, but her eyes did not shy away from looking at Xiyan. Xiyan also met her gaze and smiled calmly. The side concubine looks very ordinary, and she can't see anything remarkable, and the people in the palace haven't seen any national colors, so she can be regarded as a beauty like the side concubine. Concubine Jin thought to herself. She had heard people talk about how beautiful the concubine was all day long, and when she saw her today, she only felt normal. Her gaze was pressing, and Xiyan turned her head to look at Shiso and looked away.

"Concubine Jin is the first beauty in the Tatar Kingdom, how is it?

"It's stunning. Xiyan responded with a smile. But she was a little annoyed in her heart, because although Concubine Jin sat down, her eyes were still on her.

Concubine Li also realized it, rolled her eyes, and said teasingly: "Concubine Jin, are you afraid that you won't be able to remember Niangniang's appearance?"

"What?" Concubine Jin turned her gaze to Concubine Li.

"What do you say, if you look at it again, I'm afraid that the side concubine will grow in your eyes. Concubine Li's handkerchief covered her mouth and smiled.

Shiso snorted coldly. "Well, when the king comes, the feast will be held, and you will drink tea and eat some bits and pieces. "She couldn't say anything. There are more people in the harem, so naturally things will be complicated.

Concubine Jin glared at Concubine Li, she was so talkative and tongue-in-cheek, no wonder she didn't like the king.

Lei Xiao came in from outside with Concubine Shu. This year's new champions are quite proficient in poetry and painting, and also have a unique vision. Lei Xiao summoned Concubine Shu, and the three of them painted together in the back garden. He looked obviously very proud, and the talent and witty words that Concubine Shu showed just now made him lose face. The three of them talked happily until the father-in-law next to them reminded him that he thought that he was going to come to the princess today, he and Zi Su greeted each other casually, and then helped the concubine to sit on the table first.

"Alright, let's all go. Shisu suppressed her displeasure, stood up, and beckoned the others to come to the table as well. Everyone sat down, and the dishes came up one after another.

At this time, Lei Xiao noticed Xiyan on the side, "Are you back? Then, before Xiyan could answer, he excitedly continued to talk about what had just happened, praising Concubine Shu again and again.

For a while, the atmosphere on the table was very subtle, the gaze cast to Xiyan had elements of disdain, pity and good show, and what looked at Concubine Shu was **naked sharpness and disgust. Xiyan inhaled, lowered her head, and looked at the tablecloth in front of her in a daze, Zi Su tried her best to maintain her mood, trying not to let others see her displeasure, Concubine Jin's gaze turned into a sharp sword, eager to tie Concubine Shu into a sieve, Concubine Li echoed Lei Xiao, she didn't intend to offend anyone, I thought to myself, you fight, fight, I have a chance if you fall. Concubine Shu, who inadvertently became the target of public criticism, was also very uncomfortable, and she maintained a light smile with some embarrassment.

After a meal, the only person in the best mood is Lei Xiao.
