"Miss, these ornaments were sent by the old lady."

March lowered her head, looking submissive, and even the words she said were weak, with a little fear, without the slightest arrogance from last night, "And this dress was sent by the second lady, saying that you must wear this dress at night..."

"Oh..."

Xia Jin raised her eyes and glanced at the two sets of red dresses, her eyes closed slightly, and some doubts flashed in her eyes, and then, her eyes fell on March's body, and her red lips opened slightly: "March..."

"Miss, the slave is here..."

March knelt down with a plop, like a frightened bird, and even vaguely could see her body trembling slightly, as if what happened last night left her with an indelible sense of fear...

"Does this dress have any special significance?"

Xia Mei and the second aunt all sent her red dresses, definitely to design her.

"This..."

March didn't expect Xia Jin to ask her this question, she looked up a little hesitantly, but met Xia Jin's calm eyes, a sense of fear emanated from the bottom of her heart, and she hurriedly said:

"I heard the second lady mention that the queen mother is jealous of red."

The Queen Mother believes in Buddhism, and she also believes in ghosts and gods the most.

But a month ago, the Queen Mother was a nightmare every day...

I had nightmares for several days in a row, and then it was the national teacher who came out to heal, and the Queen Mother didn't have nightmares, but whenever she saw someone wearing red clothes, the Queen Mother would be very uncomfortable, so... The emperor ordered that anyone who appeared in front of the queen mother should not wear a little red.

"Eldest Miss, the second lady knew about this, but she ordered someone to send you red clothes, just to take the opportunity to make you anger the queen mother and the emperor at the palace banquet."

Xia Jin's face sank, and even those peach blossom eyes didn't have the slightest smile, it was extremely cold, half loud, she moved the corner of her lower lip, and chuckled, "So that's the case." ”

Knowing that the emperor had ordered it, he deliberately committed it.

This is disobedience.

At least scolding a few words, and at worst losing your head.

If it's in the palace feast... In front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, the queen mother, and a group of concubines, she appeared in a red dress, which was a naked performance challenging the emperor's prestige...

The punishment will certainly not be light, and if you don't die, you will be disabled.

It seems that her second aunt is determined to kill her...

Tsk, that's cruel...

——

Evening.

As the sun sets, the sky is dyed with a fiery red glow.

Outside the gate of Xiafu, there were three carriages parked.

There are four rooms in the Xia Mansion, but the only people who can go to the palace banquet are the wives and daughters in each room, and in the past, the people who participated in the palace banquet were Xia Mei and Xia Qianxue, although Xia Jin was also a concubine, but because she was a waste, no one would take her to the palace except General Xia.

And tonight's palace banquet, she was able to go because of her marriage contract with the second prince.

"Big house."

The old lady of the Xia family poked her head out of the carriage, and the second lady Chen Mu immediately greeted her, "Mother, what are you calling me for?" ”

"We've been waiting here for a quarter of an hour, when can we go?"

The palace banquet started at three o'clock in the unitary hour, and now it is already three o'clock, and it has not yet started, and it will be too late to delay it any longer.

"That, mother... Xia Jin hasn't come yet. ”

The old lady's face changed suddenly, her face became extremely ugly, Chen Mu'er's eyes flashed slightly, and she hurriedly said: "Mother, you wait a while, I will immediately ask the maid to urge again..."
