Chapter 22: The Trap
"What you said is true?" She naturally couldn't believe that Xiao Changle would have such good intentions.
There must be some trap waiting for her.
"Of course it's true. I know that there was a misunderstanding between you and me before, but I am your sister after all, and I should take care of you and love you. Xiao Changle said, shaking off his clothes gently.
The four words of splendid costumes seem to be born for this dress.
Xiao Yihuan looked again and again, but didn't find any problems with the clothes.
"In a short time, there will be a palace banquet, and if my sister wears this dress to participate, she will definitely attract everyone's attention." Xiao Changle took the clothes to her and compared them, and said with a smile.
Palace banquet? The palace banquet is an extremely important occasion, such a beautiful dress, Xiao Changle didn't keep it for himself to wear, but he wanted to give it to her, can't he say it?
"Since my sister is willing to cut her love, then I will accept it." Xiao Yihuan wanted to see what kind of tricks she wanted to make.
Xiao Changle left his clothes and left.
Mama Qiao took the dress in her hand and looked at it carefully, and said, "This embroidery skill is extraordinary, the eldest lady really wants to reconcile with the young lady, so she brought this dress." ”
"If only that were the case." Xiao Yihuan put the clothes on the shelf on the side and didn't touch them again.
The sky was getting darker a little, because Xiao Yihuan had been training his mobility in the night for the past few days, so the Heling Courtyard was not lit.
After she finished training, she opened the door and suddenly found that there was light in her room.
It was nothing else that was shining, it was the dress Xiao Changle gave her!
She picked up the clothes and found that the glowing embroidery threads were connected to form a phoenix pattern!
The feast was at night, and if she wore this garment, the phoenix would have been revealed in the dim light.
You must know that things with a phoenix style, except for the queen, no one else can wear them.
She appeared at the palace banquet in a phoenix robe, and she would definitely be said to be coveting the queen's position.
If others add fuel and vinegar to her bad words, she is afraid that she will have to take out the gold medal to save her life.
This trick is really vicious.
Early the next morning, Xiao Yihuan was looking for an opportunity to let Xiao Dehou see the conspiracy hidden in the clothes on the grounds that the clothes were dirty, but he ran into Xiao Linglong on the road.
"This is the clothes that Sister Changle gave you yesterday? It's really pretty. Xiao Linglong looked at the clothes in her hand, her eyes were straight and full of jealousy.
Xiao Yihuan knew that she must be thinking, why did Xiao Changle give her such a good dress?
She lowered her eyes and thought about it.
"I'm about to give it back to her. I tried it and found that this dress didn't fit, and I couldn't wear it, so I had to live up to my sister's kindness. ”
Xiao Linglong heard her say this, and immediately took the dress from her hand, "You can't wear it, I can definitely wear it." I'm in a much better shape than you. ”
"This is what my sister gave me, if I just gave it to you. Not suitable, right? Why don't you talk to your sister? Xiao Yihuan pretended to get the clothes back.
Where is Xiao Linglong willing, grabbing her clothes and refusing to let go, "I'll just go and tell her." Just by virtue of my relationship with Sister Changle, isn't this a matter of words? ”
Xiao Yihuan knew that she would definitely not say it, for fear that she would lose the clothes if she said them, so she gave her the clothes with confidence.
Then I went to the Splendid Workshop and picked out a plain and elegant fit.
On the day of the palace banquet, Xu Ruge and Xiao Changle entered the palace first and went to the harem to meet Concubine Luo, who is now in the limelight.
It's nominally a reminiscence, but in fact it's a preparation for tonight's planting.
Xiao Yihuan applied powder slightly, covered up the flaws on his face a little, simply tied his hair in a bun, put on two extremely ordinary hairpins, wore the elegant clothes, and got into a dilapidated carriage.
The carriage staggered forward, and when it reached the palace, it collided with another carriage.
"What's going on?" Xiao Yihuan opened the curtain and asked.
The coachman had a bitter face, "The slave didn't know what was going on, he was obviously walking well, but the carriage behind him suddenly crashed into it." ”
"Listen to you, or is it not ours?" When the driver of the carriage behind heard this, he shouted loudly.
Xiao Yihuan glanced back and found that the lantern on the carriage had the word "Xu" written on it.
There are many people surnamed Xu in the capital, but only one can participate in the palace banquet.
So what she ran into was Concubine Luo's maiden family, the carriage on Xu Ruge's brother's house.
I have long heard that the people of the Xu Mansion are favored by Concubine Luo and are tyrannical in the capital, but when I see it today, it is true.
"The next man can't speak, and I apologize on his behalf. I wonder if anyone is hurt? Xiao Yihuan knew Concubine Luo's status in the harem, not to mention that she was still pregnant.
Let a sleeping dog lie.
"It's not injured, but our young lady's Yunjin streamer skirt is broken, how do you want to compensate?"
Xiao Yihuan wanted to calm things down, but the other party obviously didn't want to give her this opportunity.
Yunjin streamer skirt, when she went to Jinxiufang, she heard people say that the fabric is calculated by the inch. When a dress comes down, it costs 10,000 taels of silver.
The silver she got last time has already been used, where can she afford it now?
"Yunjin streamer skirt, I recognize it, why don't you let me see first, whether it's true or not, and then talk about compensation?" Xiao Yihuan jumped out of the carriage and said to the people in the carriage behind.
"You're just a countryman, where would you recognize Yunjin Streamer?" A mocking voice came from the ornate carriage.
"As the saying goes, haven't eaten pork, haven't seen a pig run? I can't afford it, but I've seen it. You don't dare to come down, is it because you are not wearing a Yunjin streamer skirt, and you want to deliberately blackmail my silver? ”
Yunjin streamer skirt is so rare and valuable, if it is really broken, where can you sit in the carriage so calmly?
"My dignified concubine of the Xu Mansion will blackmail your money? Once the Yunjin streamer skirt is damaged, it can no longer be worn! The person inside replied angrily, still without the intention of showing up.
"You don't want to come down, I can go up and have a look, right?" Xiao Yihuan took a few steps forward and lifted the curtain.
The people in the carriage tried to stop it, but it was too late.
Xiao Yihuan glanced at the three people in the carriage, and no one was wearing a Yunjin streamer skirt, but they were all extremely ordinary dresses, which were not as good as the one on her.
"Where is the Yunjin streamer? Why didn't I see it? When Xiao Yihuan saw them like this, he knew that their relationship with Concubine Luo was not good.
Otherwise, how could you enter the palace to participate in the palace banquet and still dress like this?
Since the relationship with Concubine Luo is not good, don't blame her for being polite.
"Look, who is wearing a Yunjin streamer dress?" Xiao Yihuan deliberately stepped aside and let the people around him take a closer look.
