Lan Yao heard Chen Zhi's careless words, and his heart suddenly hurt. She bit her lip and stared at the red mark on the man's face with a complicated expression, I don't know why, she hated Concubine Li very much.

Jing Ning was also very uncomfortable in her heart, although she knew very well in her heart that Chen Zhi's status in the palace was very low, she had been bullied by people very well when she was a child, and she had bumped into it once, but now after many years, she bumped into it again, and the grief and sadness in her heart were no less than when she was a child, and even stronger than when she was a child.

"Why did that Concubine Li slap you?" There was a hint of coldness in Jing Ning's tone. She remembered that Chen Zhi was buried in the fire in the previous life, no matter what happens in this life, she also has to protect these people who treat her sincerely.

"There's no why." Chen Zhi's good-looking peach blossom eyes were upturned, and his eyes were full of smiles, but there was no smile in his eyes.

He just happened to pass by, and when he saw Concubine Li, he stopped to salute her, but for some reason, she reached out and slapped herself. A touch of coldness appeared in Chen Zhi's eyes, he clearly saw the contemptuous smile on Concubine Li's face when she beat herself, she looked at him with disdain, and he could only show a smile and apologize to her after being slapped.

"Are you here for the Queen's Banquet?" The coldness in his eyes flashed, and his usual smile appeared on his face, the smile was his mask, even if he was with Jing Ning and the others, he didn't want to take it off.

"Hmm." Lan Yao looked at him again and again, and finally just nodded. Chen Zhi saw that Lan Yao felt sorry for him, and his heart couldn't help but warm, he smiled, his eyes were gentle, and the peach blossom eyes made them even more evil and beautiful.

Xiao Yuan and Jing Ning saw the abnormality of the atmosphere around the two of them, and looked at each other and smiled.

"Then why don't you hurry to the banquet now?" Chen Zhi looked up at the sky and felt that the hour was not early, so he urged Jing Ning and them.

"You... Aren't you going? Lan Yao frowned and thought for a while.

"You're stupid." Chen Zhi smiled, "The queen mother invited you ladies of the family, what did I do as a man in the past?" His peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and his fair-skinned and slender hand lightly tapped Lan Yao's forehead, "Don't you still want me to disguise myself as a woman and be your distant cousin?" The queen's eyes are very poisonous. ”

Lan Yao's face was slightly red, she hurriedly turned her face away, and didn't dare to look at the man who was smiling wickedly, "Hu... Nonsense! This girl didn't think so! ”

Chen Zhi blinked his eyes, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he looked at Lan Yao, who was blushing in front of him, and his chest was hot.

Jing Ning and Xiao Yuan stood silently on the side and watched the two flirt for a while, and couldn't help but interject, "It's time for us to go to the queen's mother, it's not too early." ”

After hearing this, Lan Yao seemed to have finally found an excuse, "Let's go, let's go, the queen will be angry if it's late." She pushed Jing Ning, her tone was hurried, and her eyes never dared to look at Chen Zhi.

"Then let's go first, you should be careful in the palace." Jing Ning said with some concern, but in exchange for Chen Zhi's brighter smile. She suppressed the worry in her heart, turned her head and saw Lan Yao, who was holding her arm, also peeking at Chen Zhi worriedly, and said with a smile, "Let's go, I've come back to my senses." ”

Lan Yao's face turned a lot red when Jing Ning called her like this, and when she found that Chen Zhi also had a smile in her eyes, she panicked in her heart, and hurriedly dragged Jing Ning and Xiao Yuan away.

Chen Zhi stood quietly in place, watching Lan Yao's backs get farther and farther away, and the smile on his face slowly faded. He stretched out his white fingers and gently touched the already red and swollen part of his face, and his eyes gradually sank.

Although the queen said that she invited all the ladies of the family to come to the palace to enjoy the flowers, in fact, it was just a haotou, and the real purpose was nothing more than to choose a few women with noble character and dignified temperament, so as to prepare for the future princess of the prince.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and it is a great time to enjoy the flowers.

As the saying goes, "The cinnamon fragrance has blown through the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the chrysanthemum has not been opened." In addition, there are other camellias, moon flowers, marigolds, begonias, etc., and it seems that the blooming flowers can not only describe spring, but also describe autumn.

When Jing Ning and the three arrived, they found that many young ladies had arrived, including Yang Qin.

Yang Qin looked at the three Jing Ning who were late, the smile on her face froze, and she said hello to the young lady next to her and went straight to Jing Ning.

Although Jing Ning was ready to be entangled by Yang Qin, she was still a little irritable when she saw her really coming over at this time.

She glanced at Yang Qin who came over with a faint face, and secretly sighed in her heart that Dr. Yushi's family was really rich. The silk worth thousands of gold was ruined in vain, and Jing Ning shook his head in his heart and felt sorry.

Yang Qin saw Jing Ning notice the clothes on her body, and smiled proudly, this was something she finally begged her mother to customize for herself, especially for today's flower viewing banquet to crush Zheng Jingning. The smugness in her eyes deepened, "Sister Jingning, do you like this dress on your sister's body, this is a set specially customized by your sister, but if your sister likes it, your sister will give your sister a set another day, sister, do you say it's good." ”

Yang Qin's voice is not big or small, but it just makes the surrounding ladies and daughters hear. These ladies heard it, although they were also very envious and jealous of the dress Yang Qin was wearing today, seeing that the prime minister's daughter was staring directly at it now, they despised Zheng Jingning in their hearts, and they were not people who had never seen good things, it was really embarrassing, didn't the Prime Minister's Mansion add some good things to her?

Xiao Yuan and Lan Yao's faces changed after hearing this, and Lan Yao was about to speak angrily, but Jing Ning stretched out his hand to stop them.

Zheng Jingning looked at the dress on Yang Qin's body with a regretful face, and shook his head gently, "Thank you, Sister Yang Qin." ”

Jing Ning withdrew the gaze that had been looking at Yang Qin, "It's a pity that my sister only customized a few sets of clothes a few days ago, and the styles are different, so I don't have to let my sister give her love to my sister." ”

As soon as Jing Ning's voice fell, Lan Yao burst out laughing, and directly ignored Yang Qin's instantly gloomy face.

Listening to Lan Yao's laughter, Yang Qin's face sank, Zheng Jingning was provoking her less clothes? Yang Qin was slightly embarrassed on her face, "It's my sister who didn't think about it, I forgot that Sister Jingning is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she must have more customized clothes than her sister." ”

Zheng Jingning's eyes were faint, and he didn't panic at all, "My sister is too worried, it is not customized by the Prime Minister's Mansion, but it was rewarded by the emperor and the queen's kindness before, and the weather is getting colder, so I took those fabrics to make clothes, but unfortunately, there are no extra fabrics for my sister." Jing Ning's tone was very sincere, and his expression was extremely sincere.

Yang Qin tightly clenched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, the embroidered handkerchief had been crumbled into a pimple by her, she was about to open her mouth to speak, when she heard her father-in-law's sharp voice, she hurriedly closed her mouth.

"The Queen Mother has arrived—"
