Chapter 8: Old Friends
After coming and going, Miao Yi became immune to them, not only was he no longer afraid, but he occasionally had the courage to laugh with them.
So Shen Xizhi felt bored.
As soon as she is bored, she wants to cause something.
Especially on the day of Guining, the Shen family was gone, and she didn't know where to go back. Jiang Jingyu also seemed to have this concern, so when he saw that she didn't mention it, he didn't mention it himself.
"Princess, Miss Bai is here. Miaoyi knew that Shen Xizhi was in a bad mood today, and the expression on his face was quite cautious.
"Which Miss Bai?" Shen Xi was stunned and blurted out.
Miaoyi: "It's Miss Bai Jiatang." She couldn't say her name, so she mentioned it from the side.
"Bai Wanyun?" Shen Xizhi furrowed his eyebrows.
027, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly appeared at this time, but only Shen Xizhi instinctively saw and heard it.
"Bai Wanyun, a vicious female partner. 027 sent a page into Shen Xizhi's mind, which recorded all kinds of Bai Wanzhi.
"Vicious...... Female supporting role?" Shen Xizhi was puzzled, she understood the word vicious, but she didn't know how to explain it.
027 was silent.
Bai Yunyun's father is just a petty official who is soft-spoken, but her father's elder brother made a fortune in the capital and was an official to the third-rank guard. So a few years ago, Bai's father sent Bai Wanyun to Baifu, and let the two cousins be companions.
Later, Bai Wanyun became popular in the capital and became friends with her. But the concubine of the Bai family has become an arrogant and jealous woman since then.
In the past, as the daughter of the Shen family, she was surrounded by some flatterers, but at that time, she was friendly with Bai Ruixin, and she wanted to get acquainted with Bai Ruixin, but she didn't want to be dumped by Bai Ruixin. She didn't want to be bored, so she didn't bother to ask.
Thinking about it now, perhaps it is precisely because she is friendly with Bai Wanyun that Bai Ruixin mistakenly thinks that she and Bai Wanyun are the same kind of people.
Restraining his thoughts, Shen Xizhi said, "Go and invite her in." β
For some reason, Shen Xizhi always felt that Bai Wanyun suddenly came here today and was not happy.
"Sister Shen!" Bai Wanyun was dressed in a goose yellow dress, looking forward to the brilliance, looking like a little daughter.
But Shen Xizhi remembered that she didn't like such a jumpy dress before, she was not a serious Miss Bai family, so she tried her best to disguise herself as a dignified and elegant lady.
Shen Xizhi showed a kind smile and greeted her.
As soon as Bai Wanyun entered the courtyard, she couldn't help but look around, the Bai family was a little smaller than the palace. And Shen Xizhi's courtyard can only be lived in by the princess, how exquisite it is naturally, whether it is a pavilion or a rockery, it makes Bai Wanyun obsessed.
If only Princess Yu were her.
"Sister Shen is newly married Yan'er, but Wan Wan only came back in a hurry today, and it is really a sin to miss Sister Shen's wedding date. Bai Wanyun was dressed lively, but what she said was extremely tactful, and she looked a little nondescript.
Shen Xizhi remembered that about three months ago, Bai Yunyun went home to visit his parents, but he didn't expect to come back so soon. "You've had a long way home, why don't you stay at home for a few more days?"
Bai Yunyun's face paused slightly, and suddenly he looked like a nobody, his fingers twisted the hair hanging down his face, and said with a smile: "There's nothing fun there, it's still interesting in the capital." β
Her father is just a lowly official, there are few people under his hands, although the Bai family is considered to be the upper class in the local area, but when she arrived in the capital, she knew that there was a mountain and a mountain high. Whether it is the magnificent palace or the young talents with a lot of money, there is no place to go.
She wants to be a master, so she doesn't want to stay in that kind of poor place with bad mountains and bad waters.
"Speaking of which......" she took Shen Xizhi's hand, quite close, "Today is the day when Sister Shen returns to Ning, right?" I just heard that the Shen family ...... I don't know where Sister Shen plans to go?"
It turned out that he was here to find fault.
The uneasiness in Shen Xi's heart was confirmed, her face was slightly cold, and she waved away Bai Wanyun's hand.
Bai Wanyun was startled, and her eyes suddenly turned red, "I...... I said the wrong thing, if Sister Shen annoys me, just say it......"
"You're at odds. Shen Xizhi said calmly, "Now that I am married to King Yu, King Yu's Mansion is my home, not to mention that the palace is also my home, you say, where do I return?
Bai Wanyun was stunned by the words, and her face was red and white. The nobles in the capital all know that the white guard officer is the third rank, and there is a little-known younger brother, who is not angry, but stuffed his own daughter into the white guard military mansion.
Therefore, among the nobles from famous families, Bai Wanyun's identity is even more embarrassing than that of some family concubines.
Identity is what Bai Yunyun is most annoyed about, she doesn't think that she is worse than Bai Ruixin, but on the contrary, Bai Ruixin is the daughter of Bai Hujun, but she is just a young lady!
Shen Xizhi looked at her changing face, and suddenly felt that her previous self was blind. At the beginning, she was carefree, and Bai Wanyun often followed her and saddled up the horse, so she really thought that Bai Wanyun was a well-informed and courteous character.
Now goodbye, she has experienced life and death, and she can see through the truth and falsehood of this life, and suddenly she seems to be able to see through people's hearts.
Bai Wanwan gritted her teeth, tears appeared in her eyes, but she held back and kept silent, as if she had been greatly wronged.
"I've always regarded Sister Shen as my own sister, but I didn't expect Sister Shen to look down on me so much. I thought that Sister Shen had become Princess Yu, so she should have changed her previous temperament, but when I saw it today, Sister Shen's temperament was even more than before. β
She casually looked at a few maids, but found that they all looked calmβif it was in the Bai family, shouldn't the maids accuse Shen Xizhi for themselves at this time?
When she framed Bai Ruixin, she didn't avoid people, and now Bai Ruixin's vicious reputation is indispensable to the addition of those maids.
Unsure of the situation at this time, Bai Yunyun decided to stay put, so he only wiped his unwarranted tears with grievances.
Shen Xizhi felt a headache when he looked at her like this, and he didn't think that she was the same as before.
"Enough. Shen Xizhi furrowed his eyebrows, "In Yuwang's Mansion, it's best to put away your dirty thoughts, otherwise I will let you go back wherever you came from." β
"Sister Shen......" Bai Wanyun cried, "Sister Shen, don't worry, all the mistakes are my fault, I didn't come to touch Sister Shen's moldy head today." It's just, I just heard that the uncle in the palace wanted to give King Yu a side concubine and named me...... Sister Shen, I don't dare to compete with Sister Shen, but the news has already come out, and it is estimated that it will ......"
As soon as these words came out, Shen Xizhi was startled at first, and just as she was about to speak, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart, her face suddenly became as white as paper, and she vomited a mouthful of blood when she opened her mouth.
"Princess!" Miaoyi and the other maids were so frightened that they hurriedly hugged up and helped Shen Xizhi to lie on the soft couch.
The maids were looking for someone to find someone, and the doctor was asking for a doctor, and they were in a hurry for a while, but Shen Yi vomited blood vigorously, which frightened a group of people into bloodlessness.
