"This is Concubine Liu, and this is Concubine Wen Shu...... Concubine Yang ......"

Xiao Ruolan introduced Xiao Ruoxi one by one, and after each introduction, Xiao Ruoxi had to smile and salute them.

Finally, all the guests present were introduced, and Xiao Ruoxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, which is why she didn't like it here, there was too much red tape, and she felt that it was too troublesome to deal with.

Everyone sat down one by one, the banquet did not start until Shen Shi, and it was not time yet, so a group of women from the deep palace were sitting in this pavilion chatting, drinking tea, and eating melon seeds.

However, only those of you here can understand what you are thinking.

"I heard! His Royal Highness the King of Han went to the border pass to defend against the enemy, but in two or three days, he knocked the South Vietnamese barbarian out of the pass, this His Royal Highness the King of Han is really heroic and invincible! ”

Concubine Wen Shufei picked up the tea in her hand and tasted it carefully, while looking at Xiao Ruoxi with a smile on her face and said.

Xiao Ruoxi looked at the extremely beautiful face with such a hypocritical and perfunctory smile, and felt disgusted for a while, but she still looked at Concubine Wen Shu with a smile on her face and said:

"Concubine Niangniang has won the award, this is the duty of every boy in my Dachu to protect the family and defend the country, and the prince is just doing his duty."

"Princess Han can find such a good match, but she is really envious of others."

Concubine Yang on the side covered the corners of her lips lightly, and said with envy.

Xiao Ruoxi only heard the corners of her mouth twitching constantly, could it be that they were not a good match if they found Chu Xiuran, the true dragon emperor.

But it's right to think about it in a blink of an eye, there are three thousand beauties in this harem, but there is only one Chu Xiuran after all, Xiao Ruoxi couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, in fact, some harem women are also quite sad.

Xiao Ruoxi picked up the tea in front of her, took a sip, and didn't speak, but Concubine Wen couldn't help but speak.

I saw that she suddenly hid her face and sighed, and said, "Alas...... It's a pity! I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Han is going to the border pass with a guilty body, I hope that His Royal Highness the King of Han can perform well at the border pass this time, strive to be able to redeem the crime, and come back to reunite with the Han King's Mansion as soon as possible, but don't let the Princess Han stay alone in the empty room. ”

"Lady, don't be rude."

I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, Xiao Ruolan just shouted after Concubine Wen Shufei finished saying all these words.

Concubine Wen Shu's expression suddenly became a little aggrieved, Xiao Ruolan took Xiao Ruoxi's hand, as if she was afraid that she would be in a bad mood after hearing these words, and comforted softly:

"Ruoxi, Concubine Shuniang has always spoken straight, don't forget to take it to heart, what she just said was not intentional."

After speaking, he held Xiao Ruoxi's hand tightly.

"Yes! Princess Han, what I just said was really not considered by the brain, you must not take it to heart! ”

Concubine Wen Shufei also hurriedly took Xiao Ruolan's words, and immediately admitted her mistake, saying that she was admitting her mistake, but she couldn't see a little sincerity in her eyes, on the contrary, Xiao Ruoxi obviously felt a flash of pride in her eyes.

"It's fine."

Xiao Ruoxi hooked the corners of her lips forcefully, and pulled her hand out of Xiao Ruolan's hand.

Although Concubine Wen Shu's words offended her, it was undeniable that she did say the truth, besides, plus she was Chu Xiuran's woman, even if she was extremely unhappy in her heart, but considering Chu Xiuhan's current situation.

She could only swallow this breath, she was afraid that if she was here for a while, Chu Xiuran would add all these sins to Chu Xiuhan's head.

Now that Chu Xiuhan is defending against the enemy at the border, the only thing she has to do is to stay in Kyoto as much as possible and not add any trouble to him.

Lian Xiang stood behind Xiao Ruoxi, watching her young lady endure the ridicule of this group of women here like this, her heart was like a fire burning, she just wanted to burn this fire more and more, burn more and more, and burn these women to death.

But looking at her young lady's reluctant appearance, she forcibly suppressed that anger, she knew that the young lady did this, naturally she had her considerations.

Moreover, this is the palace, not the Han Palace, they are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered here, if she recklessly stands up to speak for Xiao Ruoxi, when the time comes, the most hurt will be her young lady.

I really don't know what the meaning of this palace banquet arranged by the eldest lady and calling the young lady here?

After this farce just now, the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, no one spoke, Xiao Ruoxi just drank tea quietly, didn't say anything, it was wrong to say more, she still tried to keep quiet.

Concubine Wen Shufei was stirring with the silk handkerchief in her hand, frowning and looking at Xiao Ruoxi from time to time, always feeling that something seemed wrong.

According to rumors, hasn't the second lady of the Xiao family always been arrogant and domineering? If anyone dares to say that she is not, she must not tear people's mouths apart, but now...... It seems to be a little different from the rumors.

Concubine Wen glanced at Xiao Ruolan cautiously, but Xiao Ruolan only glanced back at her lightly and didn't say anything.

For a while, she was a little upset, picked up the tea on the table and drank it all, and the palace maid next to her stepped forward to fill the tea for her again, but because of a moment of carelessness, the tea was spilled, and a few drops of tea even accidentally got on Concubine Wen Shufei's hand holding the cup, and Concubine Wen suddenly screamed.

"What's the matter with you? Blind? ”

The palace maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground with a pop, her body trembled, and she kept begging for mercy:

"Niangniang spare her life, Niangniang spare her life, slave maid...... The slave was just careless. ”

There was a clear cry in his voice, obviously frightened by this scene.

"Accidentally? Can you accidentally pour water into my hands? If this is a pot of boiling water, then don't you want to burn me, ah? ”

Concubine Wen stood up, looked at the trembling body in front of her, and roared angrily.

"Sister Shufei, it didn't hurt anyway, let this girl go down and receive the punishment, why are you so angry?"

This time it was Concubine Liu who had never spoken since Xiao Ruoxi came in.

Her voice was gentle and beautiful, and it made people feel very comfortable in their hearts, Xiao Ruoxi couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at this Liu Guifei.

The willow eyebrows are picturesque, the eyes are bright, and the body has a touch of elegant temperament, and it has been sitting there quietly, just like a fairy in the painting, which can be viewed from a distance and cannot be blasphemed.

She has been silent from the beginning, but this opening is to intercede for a palace maid, which inevitably makes Xiao Ruoxi feel a little good for her.

Like this little mistake made by the palace maid just now, if she took the initiative to go to the criminal department to receive the crime, she would only scold a few words at most, but if it really fell into the hands of Concubine Wen Shu, Concubine Wen Shufei would be energized.

Xiao Ruoxi glanced at Concubine Wen Shu's somewhat domineering face at the moment, and sighed secretly, she still had to ask for that girl's life!
