In front of the vertical arch hall, the green grass is abundant, and the purple iris from the oil is competing to open, and the air is filled with a faint fragrance.

Shen Jingyuan looked at the woman in front of him with slight expectation, and recalled the scene of meeting the woman that night countless times in his mind.

Su Wanxi pulled her thin lips and smiled secretly, then pretended to be calm, slowly raised her head, her eyes were impartial, and she met Shen Jingyuan steadily.

The breeze blows, as if the flowers of the world have bloomed at this moment. She was the woman of that night...... Under the sun, Shen Jingyuan carefully looked at the woman in front of him, like a fairy in the Nine Heavens, and remembered that when he married Bai Chengcheng, this woman had played a song "Forever Tie the Knot with One Heart". To this day, I still remember how she bounced the pipa at that time, it was too much like an old man......

"What did this girl say?" Shen Jingyuan looked at Qing'er, that day, save? He couldn't help but think of a year ago when he was chased and killed, he was rescued by a mysterious woman, after he woke up in the inn, his injuries had been treated, just a doctor over fifty years old, asked, the doctor said that a young lady in white gave him silver taels to ask him to save himself, the woman wore a veil, I don't know what her appearance was.

"Qing'er saw Tianyan for the first time, talked nonsense, and asked the prince for forgiveness." Su Wanxi spoke.

"Qing'er? You look up and say to yourself. ”

When Qing'er heard this, she raised her head tremblingly and glanced at Shen Jingyuan, and lowered her head in fear, but she was more sure that he was the person that Miss saved that day.

"Bold slave, the prince is asking you!" Xiao Anzi drank it.

"Yes! Slaves...... The slave maid ......" Qing'er looked at Su Wanxi for help.

Su Wanxi was about to speak, but Shen Jingyuan spoke first: "I know, let's talk about it next time, Xiao Anzi, let's go." ”

Shen Jingyuan probably guessed in his heart, but no one in the palace knew about this matter, and if he said it at this time, it would definitely cause an uproar. So he motioned to leave.

"Thank you, Prince!" Su Wanxi lowered her head and said, but she smiled faintly in her heart, today's coincidence was just calculated by herself, and the things that saved him that day, of course she has to use it now.

"The prince walks slowly." After speaking, she retreated from Shen Jingyuan, and her every move was calm and calm.

Shen Jingyuan couldn't help frowning, looking at her figure, thinking slightly. Could it be that she was the one who saved herself on the street that day? Su Wanxi......

Su Wanxi secretly smiled, Shen Jingyuan, I also want you to try, the feeling of being hurt by your loved one! That heart-rending pain, I want you to taste it a hundred times.

After Shen Jingyuan left, she looked at Ting'er seriously and said, "Fortunately, it was him who met today, otherwise I would have been killed by you." "Shen Jingyuan is very tolerant of both the minions and the people, but he is like an enemy to his former self.

"But...... But Miss, he was really the person you saved that day, and he turned out to be the prince! Qing'er was shocked and scared.

"Shh......h This matter is not to be mentioned again. "He already knows, and that's enough.

"Hmm......" Qing'er responded aggrievedly.

"Remember, if you do this again, I won't guarantee your safety." Su Wanxi looked at Qing'er angrily and with a smile.

"Hmmm......"

"Alright, let's go back." In the end, Qing'er is just a child who doesn't know anything. She brought her into the palace, it was purely selfish, if she didn't bring Qing'er, Su Ziyou would definitely send Ting'er or another eyeliner to follow her, so that even if she entered the palace, she couldn't escape his palm. And now, Su Ziyou has also secretly sent people to monitor him, these people can't follow him anytime and anywhere, but Su Ziyou will only appear when he is in need, and those people must be people who Su Ziyou has placed in various palaces a long time ago. I don't know how many people in this palace are his.

In a person's life, the most unretained thing is the years, like a white horse passing by, the vicissitudes of life are just a blink of an eye, let alone two days, just a drop in the ocean.

On the day of the palace election, the palace began to make noise from early in the morning, and the beauties and talents dressed up and prepared carefully for the noon palace election.

In the side room of the East Garden, the morning light gently folded into the wooden lattice and fell on the dressing table. After the black and white landscape ink painting, Wanxi soaked in the bathtub with a peaceful face. Colorful petals floated on the water, and the room was steaming and fragrant.

After bathing for a long time, Wanxi slowly got up, wiped off the water stains, changed into a snow-white tulle flowing fairy dress, and then sat in front of the dressing mirror, staring at the face in the bronze mirror and smiling faintly.

How many times did she wake up from a dream, how many times did she look at the person in the mirror like a nightmare, and she didn't believe that the unfamiliar face could be herself......

"Qing'er, bring water in." She summoned Qing'er.

Qing'er had already prepared a face wash and was waiting outside the door, although she had only been with Wanxi for a year, she could find out Su Wanxi's hobbies, such as she liked to bathe and change clothes alone, which Qing'er didn't dare to forget.

Qing'er looked at Wanxi enviously, as if she felt that the sun was brighter at this moment.

"Miss, you are really beautiful, not like a mortal." Qing'er was only fifteen years old after all, and Su Wanxi had heard her read this sentence no less than a hundred times in the past two years.

Su Wanxi only smiled faintly and didn't speak, when she was exposed to the sun for the first time with this face, those words of flattery and praise were like a surging river.

She sat back in front of the dressing mirror, picked up the charcoal pencil and lightly hooked her willow eyebrows, adding eyebrows one by one, every movement was gentle like water. She has a green silk hanging waterfall, a little makeup powder, and a slight red lip, and the years have been subverted by her.

"Qing'er, give me the simplest bun." She said lightly, looking at her face in the mirror with satisfaction, but there was a little hatred hidden in her pupils.

"Miss, today is the palace election, why do you only have a simple bun?" Qing'er doesn't understand very much, with the appearance of a young lady, if she dresses up carefully, I'm afraid that no man in the world will not bow down for her.

"Qing'er, in the future, you and I will settle down in the palace, and you have to say less with your mouth." Su Wanxi said, and glanced at Qing'er faintly from the mirror.

Qing'er saw her gaze and nodded quickly, stepped forward and began to comb her hair.

Wanxi's eyes have never shifted, she has been looking at Qing'er who is serious about her hair, she did it correctly at the beginning, and arranged the innocent Qing'er by her side, the more ordinary people are, the less suspicious they are.

Thinking about it, Su Wanxi stroked her face, and what she wanted was to be so sharp, and what she wanted was to turn the palace upside down, and the chickens and dogs were restless......

Today's emperor is lazy and greedy for beauty, and he also specially issued an order that the palace selection does not need to dress up according to the rules of the palace, and dress up by himself, as long as the beauty who appears in the palace is a beauty. And every year to participate in the palace election of a total of ten beauties, six talents, the emperor once wanted to expand the number of people, suffering from the opposition of hundreds of officials, but can only give up.

At noon, sixteen beauties were neatly waiting outside the Jiying Palace, everyone was happy and nervous, only Su Wanxi was silent along the way.

"Wanxi, do you think my tassel is beautiful?" Qiu Zi fiddled with a string of purple tassels on her bun, looking very proud.

Wanxi glanced at it and said with a smile: "The tassel is beautiful." ”

Qiu Zi nodded when she heard this, but Ruyue next to her heard it and froze for a moment, this is not like what a gentle Wanxi would say on weekdays, isn't this an extraneous meaning "Tassels are beautiful, but people are not good"? It's also a pity that Qiu Zi didn't hear the meaning of these words, and he was still there proud.

"Wanxi, what's wrong with you today?" Ruyue felt that something was wrong with her at the first glance when she saw Wanxi today, she seemed to be covered with a layer of ice and snow today, and there was an indescribable aroma lingering on her body, which made the woman smell a little lingering.

"Yes, Wanxi, you seem to be a little strange" Qiu Zi also looked at Wanxi and smelled the fragrance on her body and asked very enviously, "What kind of incense powder did you use today, why does it smell so good?" ”

Su Wanxi looked at Ruyue and Qiu Zi and said with a faint smile: "You think too much, if you like this fragrance Qiu Zi, I will give you some in the future." ”

Qiu Zi smiled: "Okay." ”

Ruyue held Su Wanxi's hand and said, "It's okay if you're okay, everyone is sisters, and you must say anything about it." ”

Sisters? Su Wanxi secretly laughed in her heart.

Sisterhood? The sisterhood in her previous life hurt her.

She only knew that there was no one in the world that she could trust anymore, that she was not an executioner, and that there was no need to see who killed whom. Whoever treats her well, she remembers to let him live, and if anyone wants to harm her, she will do whatever it takes to make that person regret it.
