In the blink of an eye, it was Princess Yuanjing's birthday, the night before her birthday, Shen Lanxin came to Xinyang Hall with a gift, she was the baby daughter of Concubine Qi, she naturally wanted to give her a special gift, so Shen Lanxin picked a very late time to go, and she shouldn't have slept at this hour.

"Princess, Princess Yuanxin is here, just outside." Red beans come in and pass it on.

Princess Yuanjing was just about to lie down, and when she heard that it was Princess Yuanxin, she asked in surprise: "It's so late, what is she doing here?" ”

Hongdou said: "The slave maid saw that her maid was carrying a box of things in her hand, could it be that she gave you a gift?" ”

Princess Yuanjing glanced at her, her expression a little suspicious, "Gifts? Is she so kind? Princess Yuanjing's eyes wandered, and she pondered for a moment, and then she said again: "I didn't succeed in the last time, but I cheapened her, let her in, I want to see what she wants to do this time!" ”

"Yes." Red Bean turned and went out.

As soon as Shen Lanxin stepped into her bedroom, she saw Princess Yuanjing sitting at the table sipping tea, waiting for her, like a master.

Seeing Shen Lanxin come in, Princess Yuanjing put down the teacup and said slowly: "It's so late, my sister won't come to my palace to find your maid again, right?" ”

Shen Lanxin came to her and said with a slight smile: "My sister said that she was laughing, isn't my maid behind me in a good manner, how could she disappear inexplicably." ”

Princess Yuanjing glanced at Qiu Yue behind her and sneered.

"Why did that sister come here?" After saying that, she glanced at the box in Qiu Yue's hand again.

Shen Lanxin smiled and took the box in Qiu Yue's hand and said: "I know there is some misunderstanding between the two of us, but sisters are sisters after all, tomorrow is your birthday, I want to give you a gift to show my sincerity, but I am afraid that my sister will be busy tomorrow and have no time to doppelganger, so I sent my congratulatory gift in advance." ”

"It's just ......," Shen Lan wanted to say but stopped.

Princess Yuanjing saw that she was mysterious, and her expression flashed with a trace of doubt: "Just what?" ”

Shen Lanxin looked left and right, and said softly: "It's just that this thing is very precious, I don't want others to know that I gave it to you, so, sister, can you go to your bedroom to talk?" ”

Princess Yuanjing was intrigued by her mysterious expression and the so-called precious gift in her mouth, she thought about it for a while, forgave her and didn't dare to do anything to her, so she got up and said, "Okay, come with me." ”

Princess Yuanjing took Shen Lanxin to her bedroom, then sat down in front of the dresser and said, "Raise her eyebrows and say, "Say, what is so mysterious?" ”

Princess Yuanjing thought that the things she gave herself were nothing more than porcelain jewelry and the like, so she didn't show much excitement, but the moment Shen Lanxin opened the box, she was stunned.

It was a transparent sphere that could not be transparent, shining brightly under the light of the candlelight, she thought she was wrong for a while, but she blinked vigorously, yes, it was clearly a water jade ball.

Shen Lanxin put the water jade ball in front of her and said with a smile: "Sister, this is the water jade ball that my father gave me when I first returned to the palace, I know that you also like this water jade ball, so I specially brought it to you." ”

This water jade ball is a treasure for entering the palace in a foreign country, and it is the love of her father, she has begged for rewards like her father several times, but her father did not agree, and even her mother did not let go of her father's mouth, but she didn't expect to give it to Li Yuanxin, but now she wants to give such a precious gift to herself? It made her a little incredulous.

Shen Lanxin observed her expression and smiled faintly.

"You're going to give me this jade ball?" She wasn't sure.

Shen Lanxin smiled slightly: "Yes, but looking at your expression, why don't you like it?" ”

Princess Yuanjing couldn't hide her joy, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no, I like it very much." ”

"If you like it, it's fine." Speaking of this, Shen Lanxin took the water jade ball out of the box and walked towards her bed.

"I heard that this water jade ball has been nourished by thousands or even tens of thousands of years of heaven and earth essence aura, and has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin. Not only that, it also has the effect of calming the nerves, and more importantly, it can cleanse the human body of sickness, which is a rare treasure. After saying that, she brushed the curtain on the side of the bed, put the water jade ball under her pillow, and finally patted it gently, and returned to its original position.

Princess Yuanjing watched her put the water jade ball under her pillow, and couldn't help but be very happy, even if she knew each other, she was willing to give the water jade ball to her.

Princess Yuanjing couldn't hide her joy and said: "Sister's kindness, my sister understands it, but this water jade ball was rewarded by your father, if you give it to me, aren't you afraid that your father will be angry?" ”

Shen Lan said disappreciatively: "If you don't say it, I won't say it, who will know that I gave it to you, besides, I just gave it to my father's other daughter, we are all the daughters of my father, it's not the same to give it to anyone, even if my father knows, what can I say?" You're right? ”

Yes, she is right, she is also the daughter of her father, and her father rewarded her with this water jade ball because she has just returned to the palace, which does not mean that she is more favored than herself.

Princess Yuanjing's eyes were vigilant, "But why did you give me such a precious thing?" ”

She didn't think that Shen Lanxin would be so kind to give her such a precious thing, so she asked like this.

Shen Lanxin knew that she would ask this, so he smiled faintly and said: "My sister knows that I have lived in the folk since I was a child, so I don't care very much about these things, and I won't appreciate them, even though the water jade ball is rare and precious, I'm afraid that the aura on my body is too small to bear such a luxurious thing, so instead of staying by my side, it is better to give it to my sister to complement each other." ”

Hearing her say this, Princess Yuanjing looked happy, and she could see that she was really happy. "Well, thank you sister for the gift."

Shen Lanxin belittled himself so much, and even raised Princess Yuanjing, how could Princess Yuanjing be unhappy.

Shen Lan saw that the hour was almost up, so he said: "Sister is polite, it's not early, rest early, I have to go back." ”

Yuan Jing got up and said, "Sister go slowly." Then he ordered Red Bean to send the man out.

Shen Lanxin smiled at her and turned to leave.

When he stepped out of the gate of the Xinyang Palace, Qiu Yue suddenly fell and just fell into the arms of the guard at the door.

Shen Lan heard the sound, looked back, and saw that the guards were helping Qiu Yue up.

She frowned and scolded, "Why are you so careless? ”

Qiu Yue hurriedly straightened her body and said, "I'm sorry, princess, the slave's feet were mixed just now." ”

Shen Lanxin glanced at the guard, and said to Hongdou: "Why is he alone with the guard at the door today?" What about the other one? ”

Hongdou was a little afraid of Shen Lanxin after what happened last time, and he was very polite to her at this moment.

"The other one has a bad stomach today and is resting."

Shen Lanxin said lightly: "In this way, then you must protect the safety of Princess Yuanjing, tomorrow is her birthday, don't have any mistakes." ”

Hongdou lowered his head and said, "The slave knows." ”

"It's not too early, let's go back quickly." After saying that, Shen Lanxin turned around and left, Qiu Yue glanced at the guard, who was squinting and smiling at her, she couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly chased after her.

"How?" Shen Lanxin asked in a low voice.

Qiu Yue also replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, princess, it's all done." ”

Shen Lan smiled and said: "Very good, I have already succeeded in stepping on the snow, and now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed." ”

At this time, Qiu Yue sighed.

Shen Lan glanced at her and said, "What's the matter, why are you sighing." ”

"It's a pity that the slave maid gave her the water jade ball for nothing."

Taking advantage of the moonlight, he saw Qiu Yue's indignant expression, and his words were extremely reluctant.

Shen Lan was disapproving, and said lightly: "What's the pity." ”

Qiu Yue looked at Shen Lanxin incredulously, "Isn't the princess distressed?" That thing can stay young forever. ”

In Qiu Yue's heart, she felt that the water jade ball was a divine object.

Shen Lanxin sneered, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, "Forever young? You also believe that if it really has that effect, how can they give it to their father so easily? It's not enough to keep it for yourself, maybe it has a little effect, but it's just a god they say. ”

Back in Xinyang Palace, Shen Lanxin didn't sleep in the room, and she hadn't come back yet, she waited for a long time, and when she was about a child, she heard hurried footsteps outside the door, and Shen Lanxin knew that she was back from stepping on snow.

The door opened, and sure enough, it was snow.

Shen Lan stood up with a sigh of urgency on his face, "How is it?" ”

Treading snow whispered in her ear, and suddenly, Shen Lan's smile gradually deepened, and her eyes were full of sharpness.

Then she motioned for the snow to go out.

Shen Lanxin sat down again, playing with the wine glass, Qi Guifei, don't you want me to become a broken flower and a ruined willow and lose my reputation? Then I will treat others the way they do. ”

This night, Shen Lanxin only slept for three hours, then got up, Qiuyue helped her freshen up, and then came to the Xinyang Palace, because it was a family banquet, so Qi Guifei set the banquet in the Huxin Pavilion of the Xinyang Palace, at this time, the guests in the Huxin Pavilion gathered, and the banquet was also prepared. At this time, Concubine Qi and Concubine Chen were chatting with their wives.

Shen Lanxin looked around and sat down in a shady position, waiting quietly, waiting to see a good show.

At this time, Jiang Yuan and Princess Yuanli came to the Huxin Pavilion together, and Princess Yuanli saw Shen Lanxin sitting next to the flowers at a glance.

"Sister?" She shouted at her and ran towards her.

"Yuan Li." She smiled at Princess Yuanli. ”

Jiang Yuan also walked towards her immediately, snapped, waved the fan in his hand, and said with a smile: "You really know how to hide?" ”

Shen Lanxin looked leisurely, and said: "I don't know those people, I really can't speak, if I don't hide here, where can I go?" ”

Jiang Yuan suddenly stepped forward and said, "Why don't I introduce those young ladies to you?" ”

Shen Lanxin set his eyes on the groups of young ladies, and at a glance, he knew that those people were incompatible with him, so he took his gaze back and said disdainfully: "No need, I am not the protagonist today." ”

"Speaking of the protagonist, why didn't you see Yuan Jing, today is her birthday." As he spoke, Jiang Yuan looked around.

Shen Lanxin said casually: "Xu is dressing up, you also know that when your daughter's birthday comes, she must be dressed up beautifully, Yuan Jing was born beautiful, and this will be even more carefully dressed." ”

Jiang Yuan shook his head and said sarcastically, "Women, it's just trouble, it's not like that." ”

At this time, Princess Yuanli interjected and said, "What do you know?" Do you know what it means to look three points and dress up seven points? ”

Jiang Yuan said disdainfully: "Hmph, I know natural beauty." After speaking, he glanced at Shen Lanxin with a smile.

At this time, the banquet was about to start, and there was still no figure of Princess Yuanjing, Concubine Qi couldn't help but be a little annoyed, on such an important day, everyone was present, but the protagonist did not appear for a long time, she was just about to send someone to urge, at this time the queen and the prince came to the Huxin Pavilion.

After everyone paid their respects and bowed, they all took their seats.

The queen looked around and said, "Today is Yuan Jing's birthday, why don't you see her?" ”

"Xu is Yuanjing is dressing up, and the concubine is going to send someone to urge." After speaking, Concubine Qi instructed the palace maid next to her, "Go and urge the princess." ”

The palace maid was ordered to hurry forward.

Everyone here is talking and laughing and waiting for today's protagonist, they all think that the protagonist has not appeared for a long time, and he must appear in the most amazing appearance, so everyone is waiting to see.

After a while, the palace maid sent by Concubine Qi ran over in a panic, as if she had seen some terrifying picture.

She hurriedly saluted Qi Guifei, and then said something in her ear, Qi Guifei's originally peaceful face suddenly changed, she got up and turned her head to leave, her expression was exactly the same as the expression of the palace maid just now, and everyone present was talking with questions.

Seeing Concubine Qi leave the table in a hurry, the queen couldn't help but wonder, "What's wrong with Concubine Qi?" ”

At this time, Concubine Chen glanced at Concubine Qi's hurried back and said, "Look at her panicked appearance, could it be that something happened to Princess Yuanjing?" ”

At this time, Shen Lan's heart parted appropriately: "It stands to reason that she should have arrived a little earlier for Yuan Jing's birthday, but she didn't show up for a long time, could it be that something really happened?" Queen Mother, why don't we go and see it too? ”

When the queen heard this, she couldn't help but be a little worried, so she hurriedly got up and said, "Go and see." ”

Then the group followed the queen to Princess Yuanjing's bedroom, and the queen was just about to step in when she was suddenly stopped from the room by the panicked Qi Guifei, "Queen, Yuanjing is not feeling well, and it is really not suitable to meet guests at this moment." ”

Qi Guifei's voice changed when she spoke.

"What's wrong with Sister Yuanjing?" Yuan Li asked.

Qi Guifei is usually the most calm, and her expression is also flustered at this moment. She ...... She suddenly contracted a disease and asked the queen to move to the front hall. ”

"Sudden infection? Wasn't it okay yesterday? Speaking of this, Shen Lanxin was the first to break in, and then deliberately shouted.

The queen and Li Yuanshi heard Shen Lanxin's cry and hurriedly broke in, but the scene in front of them stunned everyone.
