The snow was getting heavier and heavier, Yuan Shan held a delicate invitation in her hand, staring out the window, her beautiful eyes were shocked, and the invitation in her hand was left by the eldest sister Ruan Yuanzhu before leaving.

Please post it roughly means that on the 30th day of the lunar month, the royal family will hold a Chinese New Year's Eve celebration banquet, inviting many officials, ladies and ladies to attend.

In previous years, there were no such banquets, probably to enhance the relationship between the royal family and officials, and it was also meant to be a matchmaker for young people, which was customary.

If there is a young lady in the New Year's banquet who is the prince of the royal family, the prince will take a fancy to it, and marrying into the royal family is a great blessing. Therefore, such banquets often make the ladies of boudoir and spring yearn for it.

What makes Yuan Shan strange is that it stands to reason that someone like her, who was sent to Zhuangzi because her appearance was ruined and her parents' reputation was affected, could she receive such an invitation? Besides, she is only nine years old, it is too early to say who has taken a fancy to her, Yuan Shan is not so narcissistic, and she is just an unfavored concubine.

Not to mention that Yuan Shan was in doubt at this time, even the Lin family, who sent Ruan Yuanzhu to send an invitation to Yuan Shan, was also puzzled. Yuan Shan is only nine years old, and she was sent to Zhuangzi to be raised, how could the boss name her to participate?

"Mother, can I wear this dress?" Ruan Yuanyu excitedly spun around and posed and asked. The ladies of the Ruan family all received invitations to the palace banquet. The happiest person is none other than Ruan Yuanyu.

Ruan Tianxue is just an official position from the fourth grade, and in the future, Ruan Yuanyu's choice of husband will only be the son-in-law of an official family with a similar position at most, and although Ruan Yuanyu is simple and rude, he is also very arrogant.

Lin couldn't figure it out, leaned lazily on the soft couch, saw his daughter's excited little face, and couldn't help revealing a loving gaze, and said again and again: "Niang's Yu'er is the best-looking, Niang Ming'er sent someone to call the master of Xiuyifang to come over and cut a few beautiful clothes for Yu'er." ”

"Mother loves Yu'er the most." When Ruan Yuanyu heard this, her eyes couldn't help but light up, and she stuck it on Lin's body to be coquettish, Lin's mood suddenly improved a lot, and she no longer bothered about why Yuan Shan was named to participate in the New Year's banquet.

It's just November, and there is still more than a month before the New Year's banquet, and when the time comes, I will definitely have my daughter Yan Guan.

Although Ruan Yuanyu is only ten years old, such a banquet can generally be decided on by both parties after seeing each other, and if there is nothing special, the boss is also happy to see it. Lin's heart also began to heat up......

At the beginning, she couldn't figure it out and didn't keep pestering Yuan Shan, she is now a person who has embarked on the path of immortals, so she naturally won't stick to these little things, out of the desire for strength, Yuan Shan has been in the cultivation of forgetting to sleep and eat every day this month.

She found that since stepping into the second layer of Qi training, her body's craving for food was no longer strong, and at most, if she was hungry and thirsty, she could eat a little fresh fruit in the "Thousand Noodles" to ensure that she would not be hungry for a few days.

Relatively speaking, on the contrary, if Ruohua didn't eat the food sent by Ruohua once, the body needed to expel some black and greasy dirt, but if he didn't eat Ruohua, he would be worried, after all, how could a normal person be alive and kicking without eating anything for ten days and half a month? This made Yuan Shan a little depressed.

In the end, Yuan Shan thought of a good way, she raised two snow mastiffs, and kept them by her side every day, every time Ruohua sent in the food, if she wanted to eat a little, if she didn't want to eat, she threw it to these two snow mastiffs.

Fortunately, Yuan Shan didn't have a lot of food, otherwise the two snow mastiffs would be miserable, and in addition to their own food, they would have to solve the food of Yuan Shan, the master.

Unconsciously, a month passed quietly, and under Yuan Shan's high-intensity cultivation, coupled with the nourishment of the fresh fruit spiritual spring in the "Thousand Faces", Yuan Shan's cultivation naturally reached the third level of Qi training.

"The spiritual power is not even enough." A delicate plum blossom dagger flew crookedly from not far away, and after a while, it was inserted upside down on the ground, Yuan Shan followed from behind, with a slight wave of her sleeves, the whole person "floated" over, naturally she performed her newly learned trick to resist the wind.

If you don't look at the appearance on Yuan Shan's soft mask, the whole person is fluttering in white clothes and overflowing with aura, if you let others see it, you really think it's an immortal. Yuan Shan doesn't look at the surface quietly, in fact, she is not less proud in her heart.

After that fight, Yuan Shan's heart has really begun to transform from a boudoir girl to a qualified immortal cultivator. The ancestor's codex also records many scenes of her being in distress and fighting her opponents. In the future, there will be no less such things in the immortal cultivation realm.

If Yuan Shan is still a girl who is ignorant of the world and doesn't even dare to kill, then entering the immortal cultivation world in the future will undoubtedly be a sheep's mouth. She never thought of taking the initiative to provoke others, all she wanted was immortality, but competition was inevitable.

Even with a huge treasure trove, Yuan Shan never wanted to rest on her laurels, cultivating immortals has never been as simple as meditation and retreat, and suffering and tempering are also essential.

The third layer of Qi training has been able to practice some simple spells, Yuan Shan has picked a few practical spells to learn, after all, she can't chew more than she can chew, so she only learned the Wind Resisting Technique, Light Body Technique, Fireball Technique, Ice Pick Technique, and Imperial Object Technique at the beginning.

Who knew that she seemed to be very talented in learning spells, and quickly learned several spells, so she also learned the remaining few simple spells, such as cleansing, breathing, thorns, and so on.

But unlike other spells, she doesn't seem to have much talent for the Imperial Technique, and she hasn't been able to learn it well, and this is the first time I've tried it today, and I still haven't been able to control the magic weapon well.

The so-called imperial art is to establish a connection between the spiritual power and the magic weapon, and then control the operation of the magic weapon through the guò mind and spirit.

The plum blossom dagger was officially used by Yuan Shan to kill four people, and Yuan Shan, who was not strong enough at that time, simply used the dagger as a sharp attack weapon, but now it is different, she can already drive the dagger to run.

It's a pity that I don't know how many times I practiced, but the dagger was disobedient, flying crookedly in the air, and fell to the ground before it flew far.

Yuan Shan was not discouraged, I saw that she frowned slightly, and began to pinch her hands again, chanting the spell "Rise", the plum blossom dagger suddenly flew upside down from the ground, this time Yuan Shan eased her mind to achieve a relatively peaceful mood.

Although this imperial trick is only the simplest spell, for novices, the strength and the uniformity of spiritual power are not easy to control.

It seems that Yuan Shan's hard work has paid off, and although the plum blossom dagger is still crooked this time, it has begun to go where Yuan Shan thinks in his heart.

"Huh" only heard a crisp sound, and the dagger rushed into the lake.

Yuan Shan frowned and hid the embarrassment in his heart, after all, every grass and tree in this "Thousand Faces" is a treasure, and Yuan Shan, who has the essence of a miser, is not willing to destroy them, so he has to control the dagger to throw it at Linghu, so that there is no loss from "Thousand Faces" or daggers or others, right? Isn't it......

As if to protest against the shamelessness of the master, the dagger connected to Yuan Shan's mind jumped up and down from the spirit lake.

After reciting a mantra to put the dagger into the storage ring, Yuan Shan's mind moved out of the "Thousand Faces", don't look at the fact that nothing happened in the Thousand Faces, but if Yuan Shan practiced outside and didn't know how much damage it would cause, it would be strange if he didn't show his stuffing at that time.

Soon it will be the day of the banquet, and the confidence in Yuan Shan's heart has become more sufficient with the improvement of her cultivation, regardless of the doubts in her heart, she doesn't believe that anything bad will happen to her at a mortal banquet, so it's really not a big deal to hide in the "Thousand Faces".

On the day of the banquet, Yuan Shan chose a relatively festive color skirt, covered with a tender yellow slit, and her "face" was smeared with a layer of powder by Ruohua, and the scar on her forehead and the red spots on her face were almost invisible, but the temperament of the whole person was also covered up, and it became wooden, and it didn't look angry at all.

But for this effect, Yuan Shan was even more satisfied, more or less Yuan Shan still went with the mentality of watching the excitement on the side, after all, she was used to it as a spectator.

And now Yuan Shan, whose horizons have grown, also has an indifferent attitude towards these secular nobles and wealth, and will not feel honored because of receiving such an invitation, nor will she be complacent because she is invited to the royal family.

After breakfast, the two snow mastiffs followed Yuan Shan step by inch, speaking of which these two snow mastiffs seem to be very aura, at the beginning when Yuan Shan bought it back, they would pounce on anyone when they saw it, grinning their teeth, looking very fierce, but they seemed to be very afraid of Yuan Shan, and even "looked" at Yuan Shan with a seemingly flattering gaze every time.

Ruohua joked that this "heavy snow", "Xiaoxue" only recognized Miss, and no one next to him bought it.

However, only Yuan Shan knows, that is because she has embarked on the path of immortals, and she naturally has an inviolable temperament, under her deliberate concealment, Ruohua and these mortals naturally can't see it, but animals have a natural sensitivity, and they naturally have a sense of fear for people whose strength is above them.

Around noon, Ruan's Mansion sent a small sedan chair over to take Yuan Shan back to the house, Mei Lan and Ruohua waited with them, and the others stayed on Zhuangzi, and ordered Daxue Xiaoxue to look at Zhuangzi, and Yuan Shan got on the sedan chair with confidence.

The small sedan chair came down at the side door of Ruan's mansion, and two mothers-in-law came to welcome Yuan Shan in, and Yuan Shan seemed very obedient, "The fourth sister is back, and the younger sister lives in Zhuangzi ...... good."

Yuan Shan frowned slightly, but lowered her head a little timidly, letting the girl in front of her hold her hand and talk, looking a little overwhelmed.

In Yuan Shan's impression, Ruan Yuanxiu is not a peaceful person, like her aunt Han, relying on the favor of the old lady, she has never taken Lin's mother and daughter in her eyes.

Yuan Shan remembered that in her previous life, she was married to an adult with a small official position, and it seemed that she was better than her eldest sister Ruan Yuanzhu.

But Yuan Shan didn't have much to do with her. She really didn't expect to meet her as soon as she came back this time, and it was still like this.

"Second sister is good."

Although it is doubtful, the etiquette is indispensable, and now she is still in the secular world, and her identity is still the concubine of the Ruan Mansion. Ruan Yuanxiu is twelve years old this year, looks very much like Aunt Han, her facial features are very small, and at first glance she is also a small and delicate beauty, but in this delicacy, she does not have the dignified generosity of a young lady.

is different from the gentleness and gentleness of the eldest sister, which seems a little stingy and calculating, so Yuan Shan doesn't like her very much, and pushes away Ruan Yuanxiu's seemingly intimate hand without a trace. Yuan Shan politely said hello.

Ruan Yuanxiu's smile was slightly stiff, and he was slightly annoyed in his heart, in fact, Ruan Yuanxiu's life is not easy these days, because Ruan Yuanyu was in charge of the house a few days ago, Han specially begged the old lady to say that although the second miss is a concubine, she is older than the third miss, and even if she gets married in the future, she should be earlier than the third miss.

Therefore, the relevant matters of the middle feed in the house should also start learning earlier, the old lady has always loved Ruan Yuanxiu, and immediately called the Lin family to come over and let Ruan Yuanxiu learn to be in charge.

How do you know that the Lin family agreed on the surface, but in fact, he assigned some inconsequential but trivial and cumbersome chores to Ruan Yuanxiu, Ruan Yuanxiu was arrogant, but in fact, he was stingy and calculating, so naturally he couldn't do anything, and within two days, he was caught by the Lin family in front of Ruan Tianxuan, and he was directly relieved.

But Ruan Yuanxiu never felt that it was his lack of ability, but that his grandmother deliberately made things difficult.

Therefore, this palace banquet wants to bring in other sisters and isolate Ruan Yuanyu, after all, except for Ruan Yuanyu, the others are concubines, and in her opinion, they should be very easy to woo.

However, in fact, Ruan Yuanying did not receive the invitation when she was young, Ruan Yuanzhu was already married, and it was estimated that she would give birth at the palace banquet, so she naturally did not go, so Ruan Yuanshan was the best candidate.

How do you know that Ruan Yuanshan doesn't seem to be interested in her, and she is not driven to Zhuangzi by the Lin family as she thought, and she hates the Lin family and Ruan Yuanyu to the core, and hits it off with her.

However, looking at Yuan Shan's "cowardly" appearance, Ruan Yuanxiu felt that even if she won over this sister, it would be useless, so she laughed a few times and left with the girl.

Looking at Ruan Yuanxiu's back, Yuan Shan raised her head, and a light flashed quickly in Mu Ran's eyes......
