At noon that day, Yan Zixi was admiring the lotus flowers in the pavilion, and the maid Xiaomei hurriedly crawled over and said to Yan Zixi.

"Princess Princess, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good!"

Yan Zixi saw that Xiaomei was out of breath and anxious, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "Xiaomei, what happened, she looked so anxious, could it be that something happened to the prince?" ”

"That'...... That's not ......" Xiaomei took a few deep breaths and gasped for a while, then replied: "Someone is coming from the gate of the house......"

"Someone is coming, someone is coming, as for being so flustered? There are so many people coming and going in the Zhenguo General's Mansion in a day, what is there to be surprised! Yan Zixi still said unhurriedly sipping tea.

"Oh, Princess, yes...... It's the people of the Second Prince's Mansion! ”

"Poof!"

Before Xiaomei's words fell, Yan Zixi directly squirted out a mouthful of herbal tea, and then she stood up, pointed at Xiaomei in front of her and complained, "You dead girl, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Xiaomei looked like she wanted to cry without tears, thinking that as soon as I came in, I wanted to say it, obviously you are not in a hurry, princess. Thinking about it, Xiaomei didn't dare to say what was in her heart, otherwise she would definitely be scolded to death by Princess Xiao.

"What did the people from the Second Prince's Mansion say?" Yan Zixi asked again.

Xiaomei hurriedly replied: "Back to the princess, someone from the second prince's mansion said that the second princess wants to invite you to come over to the palace!" ”

"The second princess invited me to meet?" Yan Zixi bit her lip lightly, thought for a moment, and then opened her mouth to ask, "Xiaomei, what else did that person say?" Can it be said that the second princess wants to invite this princess over for something? ”

Xiaomei thought about it, and replied again: "It seems that the second imperial concubine is sick, and I want to ask you to go over to the house to help take a look!" ”

"It's really strange, the second imperial concubine is sick, you can call the imperial doctor, why did you find me?" Yan Zixi muttered in her heart, but since the two imperial concubines have sent someone to invite, if she doesn't go, I'm afraid it will be a loss of etiquette.

What's more, now that Xiao Jingcong has temporarily lost his military power, it is best not to offend such a powerful person.

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi instructed the maid Xiaomei: "Xiaomei, you go and prepare, let's go over immediately." ”

Xiaomei still stayed where she was when she heard this, as if she was hesitating about something.

Yan Zixi saw Xiaomei standing in place and didn't move, so she couldn't help but ask strangely: "Xiaomei, what's wrong, why don't you do it yet?" ”

"Princess, the second princess is unpredictable, do you really want to go over?"

"Does this princess have a choice?" Yan Zixi shrugged her shoulders and smiled helplessly, "Now that the second prince is in power, sooner or later he will inherit the throne of the crown prince, if he offends the second princess again, it will only bring endless disasters to the Zhenguo General's Mansion in the future, I don't want to embarrass Xiao Jingcong, so I have to go!" ”

Seeing Yan Zixi's obligatory look, Xiaomei knew that she had made up her mind, and then she didn't persuade anymore, just nodded indifferently, and went down to prepare.

When it was almost noon, Yan Zixi finally took a carriage to the second prince's mansion.

After entering the mansion, Yan Zixi and Xiaomei, led by a maidservant, came to the door of the second imperial concubine's room.

Xiaomei was blocked from the door.

"The second princess has an order, and only Princess Xiao is allowed to enter."

Seeing this, Yan Zixi turned to Xiaomei who was frowning and said, "In that case, Xiaomei, you can wait for me here." ”

"But ......" Xiaomei still wanted to say something, but when she saw Yan Zixi's face, she had no choice but to nod, stood outside the door, and didn't say anything more.

Yan Zixi walked into the bedroom of the second imperial concubine under the leadership of the maidservant.

"Master, Princess Xiao brought it."

"Ahem, ahem...... Got it, you can step back first. The sound of the second imperial concubine coughing came from the bed.

"Yes!" When the maidservant heard this, she respectfully withdrew.

The second princess said to Princess Xiao: "Princess Xiao, this palace came to you today, I want you to help this palace see what is wrong with my illness, you don't need to be polite, come over directly." ”

"Okay, Second Imperial Princess."

Yan Zixi answered, then walked to the side of the bed and took the pulse for her. Qi Yan reads

After a while, the second princess saw that Yan Zixi had not spoken, so she asked again: "Princess Xiao, this palace is sick?" ”

"Oh, don't worry about the second princess, it's just a little bit of wind chill, just take some medicine."

"Really? This physical illness is easy to treat, but this heart disease ......" The second imperial concubine looked sideways slightly, and asked meaningfully.

"Heart disease needs heart medicine. Xi'er can't cure this disease, and I ask the second imperial concubine to forgive me. ”

Faced with the doubts raised by the second imperial concubine, Yan Zixi didn't know how to answer for a while, so she could only sit there and wait quietly.

After a while, the second princess took out the pastries in the food box, tasted them lightly, and continued: "Princess Xiao, do you deliberately look down on this palace? ”

When Yan Zixi heard this, she immediately arched her hand and replied: "Second Imperial Concubine, you misunderstood, Xi'er definitely has no intention of looking down on her, Xi'er definitely respects the Second Imperial Concubine from the bottom of her heart." It's just that Xi'er also has a saying, I don't know if I should say it or not? ”

The second imperial concubine snorted coldly, and said with a sneer in her mouth: "Princess Xiao, there are no outsiders here, only the palace and you, if you have anything to say, it doesn't matter." ”

"Yes, Second Imperial Princess." Yan Zixi responded, paused slightly, and continued: "Second Imperial Princess, every decision we make is choosing a path, and if we choose the wrong path, we will probably fall into the abyss by mistake. The chess game is like life, if you are not careful, you will lose all the games, so we have to be careful, Second Imperial Princess, what do you think of what I said? ”

When the second imperial concubine heard this, she hesitated for a moment, and then said lightly: "Yan Zixi, what you said is right, this palace is too underestimated of you, and it didn't cut you down in time to get to today's field." You are indeed a smart woman, but you don't need to be too happy now, this palace has a word in advance, winning or losing for a while is nothing, only the person who laughs the best is the real winner! ”

The meaning of the second imperial concubine was already obvious, and she didn't care about this defeat at all. The reason why she is so calm is probably because she has a strong backer behind her!

Just when Yan Zixi was thinking so in her heart, the second princess continued to speak: "Yan Zixi, you don't have to be complacent too early, sooner or later you will fall from the high Princess Xiao to the abyss, how about it, do you want to make a bet with this palace?" After speaking, the eyes of the second imperial concubine revealed a hint of fluttering.

Yan Zixi has never thought about the future, after all, what will happen in the future can be said clearly? You never know what will happen in the future, so Yan Zixi never thinks about the future.

At this moment, Yan Zixi heard the second imperial concubine so mocking, so she replied unhurriedly: "Second imperial concubine, maybe what you said is very right, but what can you say in the future?" Now that you can get to this point, maybe you'll lose even worse in the future! ”

"Presumptuous!"

The second imperial concubine, who was originally very calm before, immediately became angry when she heard Yan Zixi's words, and the muscles on her face twitched incessantly.

She tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart, and asked in a cold tone.

"Princess Xiao, what do you mean by that?!"

"What do you mean?! Xi'er doesn't mean anything, if the second princess doesn't want to listen, Xi'er can say something else. However, Xi'er advised the second imperial concubine not to be too absolute in everything, and not to say too much, otherwise, she would ask for her own hardship. ”

In fact, what did Yan Zixi mean by what she said, how could she not know? It's nothing more than deliberately pretending not to know, and deliberately saying it to the second imperial concubine.

This sentence completely ignited the anger in the heart of the second princess, she slapped the table suddenly, with a gloomy face, and bit out a few words from her mouth angrily, "Princess Xiao, don't be too aggressive!" ”

The second imperial concubine had something to say, Yan Zixi naturally heard it, she was still unmoved, squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "Second imperial concubine, Xi'er is in front of you, don't dare to get an inch, Xi'er is just telling the truth." Since ancient times, there has been a saying that people are watching the sky, and please do it yourself! ”

"Hehe, what a good self-conscious, Princess Xiao of the Zhenguo General's Mansion dares to teach this palace a lesson?" The second imperial concubine was so angry that her body trembled, her pupils dilated, and she could almost spew fire.

The second imperial concubine is also very strange, why can this Yan Zixi be so bold and unafraid, and no one is in her eyes?

Is it because he has Xiao Jingcong to support him?

Xiao Jingcong has now lost the emperor's trust, and has even been idle at home all the time, why can she still be so fearless, she really doesn't take herself seriously.

Although the second concubine had vaguely felt that Yan Zixi was an unusual woman from the time they first met, she never thought that this woman would bring so much trouble to herself.

If it weren't for Yan Zixi, the second imperial concubine might not have been forced to do this today.

It can be said that up to now, it is more or less related to Yan Zixi.

The second imperial concubine stared at Yan Zixi meaningfully, and Yan Zixi also looked at the second imperial concubine at the same time, the two of them looked at each other like this, and the air seemed to be filled with a smell of gunpowder, as if it was burning at one point.

Although Yan Zixi didn't know what the second princess's eyes meant, Yan Zixi knew very well in her heart that it was definitely not simple.

Yan Zixi tried her best to pretend to be calm and calm, and the corners of her mouth still hooked a faint smile, "Second Imperial Concubine, Xi'er has said all she has to say, and she has almost said it, I hope that the Second Imperial Concubine will not go to her heart." ”

Saying that, Yan Zixi bowed down and gave a blessing to the second imperial concubine, "Second imperial concubine, Xi'er still has something to do, so I won't bother too much and say goodbye." ”

Yan Zixi didn't care whether the two imperial concubines agreed or not, and turned around and left after finishing speaking.
