Qianqian and the others who were kneeling in the room stood up shortly after Xuan Yining left, but none of them dared to go to the back room to see what the situation was.

In the end, Zi Die, who was relatively calm, walked out of them, "You go to fetch water that should be fetched, and you should prepare, I will go to the back room to see Miss, if Miss comes out in a while, you have to carefully groom Miss, today's banquet must be attended by other concubines in the palace, and Miss's dress must not be sloppy." ”

After Liuzi, Qianqian, and Bihe nodded seriously, they stopped stopping and began to get busy.

Seeing that they had all started, Purple Butterfly no longer delayed, and walked into the inner room with courage, and before she could cross the threshold, she saw that it was dark in front of her, and there was an instant 'kala' sound in the direction above her head, and the sound of wood breaking.

This voice came into her ears, causing Zi Die, who was already worried, to suddenly take a few steps back, and as her sight returned to clarity, she saw Nian Yingxi standing in front of her at this time.

"Little, Miss......" Zidie looked at Nian Yingxi who was gritting her teeth with a trembling voice, not that her expression made her feel scared, but that she saw Nian Yingxi's fist that was still stuck in the broken wood chips of the door frame.

As if completely immersed in her own emotions, Nian Yingxi didn't pay attention to the purple butterfly in front of her, clenched her fist angrily, and with the sound of 'gurgling' between her fingers, she pulled out the fist stuck in the wooden frame and didn't wait for it to fall, then swung it again and punched it towards the door frame.

Where can the door frame, which is already two halves, withstand such a hard knock as Nian Yingxi? Finally, when she landed her second punch, it shattered and almost fell to the ground.

Purple Butterfly took three steps back again, until she leaned against the wall behind her, and then stopped her retreat.

Nian Yingxi, who finally felt the pain, lowered her arm, and when she raised her eyes to Zi Die's eyes that had not yet disappeared from fear, she showed the first smile after the anger burned out, "Zi Die, did you scare you?" Actually, she was still angry, but it wasn't as intolerable as she had just been.

'Tick, tick' is the sound of something dripping on the ground.

Zi Die, who heard the voice, lowered her eyes, and when she saw the bright red dripping from Nian Yingxi's sleeve, she couldn't estimate the fear anymore and took a few steps forward, and raised Nian Yingxi's arm, "Miss, what's wrong?" If you're unhappy, you can smash things, but you can't hurt yourself! ”

Looking at her worries, Nian Yingxi pulled out the sawdust in her hand, and left them on the ground one by one with bloodshots, and smiled indifferently, "It's okay, it's just some skin trauma, and it's on the hand again." ”

"How can you not care?" Zidie said, grabbed her wrist again, and gently pulled her to avoid the pain of her wound, and carried her all the way to the middle hall, pressing her in front of the vanity mirror, "Miss, the hand is our second face, slaves and maids can not care, but you are the master, you can't care." She said, turning to find the medicine bag she had brought with her.

"Purple Butterfly, is it that my good or bad has a lot to do with you?" Nian Yingxi looked at her hurried back, and her heart was still a little warm.

Squatting in front of her with a medicine bag, Zidie smiled, "It's okay if Miss thinks so, but let's follow Miss's side, all we want is Miss to be safe, as for other rich and noble, they are all available but unwanted." ”

Qianqian, who had just walked in with the washing water, and Bihe, who was about to pack up her clothes, heard this, and nodded with a smile, "Miss, we want to share honor and disgrace with you, so if you are in pain, we will all be in pain." ”

"Good girls, I'm much more comfortable with you." Nian Yingxi smiled and looked at Zidie's hand that she had wrapped with white gauze, and cooperated with Qianqian to get up and clean her face, and finally sat quietly in front of the dressing mirror and put on her makeup by Bihe, regaining her previous peace of mind from beginning to end.

And Qianqian, Zidie and Bihe are also quietly busy with the things at hand, and they are all smart and don't mention a word about why Yingxi was like that just now.

When he was about to finish dressing up, Liuzi knocked on the door and walked in, when he saw Nian Yingxi dressed up, he first swallowed his saliva in amazement, and then walked to Nian Yingxi's side and whispered, "Miss, I just went out to investigate, it seems that tonight's banquet invited all the concubines in the harem, of course, including the most favored Concubine Xi Niangniang, and Concubine Qi Niangniang, who has a holiday with Concubine Xi. ”

After listening to the general description of the sixth son, Nian Yingxi touched the hairpin that shook on her head and made her feel uneasy, "It's really capable." As he spoke, he took off the pure gold hairpin on his head and stepped on his feet, "No matter how expensive it is, in the end, they are afraid of being crushed." Turning his head to look at Zi Die, "You go to the banquet with me tonight, remember that if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone." ”

Tonight's banquet is her first appearance in this harem, so she naturally wants to find the most stable Purple Butterfly to go with her, because Purple Butterfly not only has a relatively mature heart, but also has a unique side that Qianqian and Bihe do not have.

Purple Butterfly looked at the hairpin on the ground, and there was a hint of toughness in her soft words, "Miss don't worry, Purple Butterfly will watch Miss do what she orders." ”

Nian Yingxi nodded, and then looked at the other people, "As for you all waiting here, if someone else wants to take the opportunity to cause trouble, remember to give me some strength, rest assured and bold to give me a toss, even if you are killed, it's okay, I can support it!" ”

With her words, the others were naturally relieved to say yes, because they had long been convinced of Nian Yingxi's words.

"Okay, you all disperse, and the eunuch will call me again when he comes with the jade bowl." Nian Yingxi said and was about to leave.

Qianqian glanced anxiously at the dark night outside the door, "I think I'm coming soon, where are you going, Miss?" She was afraid that Nian Yingxi would make something happen to her.

Nian Yingxi pointed to the roof above her head, "I'm on top of this, just shout if you have something." With that, he walked out of the antechamber and jumped onto the roof.

She still has a lot of things that she hasn't explained to Mo Xiu, and she is not familiar with anything in and out of the palace, so she must not be sloppy.

Xuanguo Palace, banquet hall.

In front of the door of the banquet hall where red lanterns have long been hung in a row, there have been a lot of jade bowls, although these vacant jade bowls are orderly and lined up in the open space under the steps, but because of the large number, the originally empty open space still looks a little crowded.

In the banquet hall, the lanterns made of oil lamps are hung high on the beams, and the reflective buildings around them reflect each other against the backdrop of the skin of the colored lanterns, which is very magnificent and bright.

In the spacious atrium, except for a passage leading to the entire staircase, the other sides are densely packed with tables and chairs placed by eunuchs and palace maids.

And some of the concubines who had already arrived early, because the emperor did not come, did not sit in their seats in a regular manner, but chatted in groups first, and laughter came from time to time from their crowd of threes and twos, hovering above the palace more than three meters high, but it was also a lively scene.

Another jade bowl was carried by the eunuch, and slowly stopped at the door of the banquet hall, and the eunuch who was guarding the door to pass the word looked at the person who came down from the jade bowl, and couldn't help shouting to the main hall, "Rongxi Palace, Concubine Xi Niangniang is here——! ”

As the eunuch's voice gradually fell, a graceful figure slowly walked into the hall of the banquet hall with the support of the palace maid.

Her pearl and dizzy face has a jade-like lustre, and the orange Baikai long skirt is repaired, showing her slender and thin figure to the fullest, and her raised arm is casually placed on the wrist raised by the palace maid, like a light blue peony flower on the cuffs of flowing water, under the light of the lantern, as if alive, slowly growing and blooming on the sleeves of her arm.

As the visitor slowly walked into the center of the main hall, the other concubines who were still chatting happily just now all closed their mouths quietly, as if her light could not be buried and ignored by others, and for a time she became the most dazzling scenery in this banquet hall.

In this hall that suddenly quieted down, a coquettish laugh suddenly came from the crowd, "Concubine Xi's dress today is really envious of the eyes of others such as me!" As the voice spread, a young woman wearing a lilac Luo skirt walked out of the crowd.

The woman's appearance is not outstanding, but she only gave birth to a pair of bright eyes, she walked to Concubine Xi's side with a flattering smile, and seemed to hold Concubine Xi's arm intimately, "If you want the concubine to say, look at our harem, it is just the flower of Concubine Xi, and the four seasons are often bright and beautiful." ”

"Did Concubine An come here today after eating honey? It's so sweet in the mouth. Concubine Xi smiled proudly, obviously very deliberately flattered by Concubine An.

Seeing that Concubine Xi was in a good mood, Concubine An accepted her flattery, and said again, "Concubine Xi is naturally beautiful, so she naturally looks good in everything, and my sister is just telling the truth." ”

In fact, she didn't want to flatter Concubine Xi like this, but she had no choice, she had been in the palace for two years, although she had a title, she had never been favored by the emperor, and her father was just a third-class official, and she couldn't stand in the court, so in order to make herself a real person as soon as possible, she could only see the wind and follow behind Concubine Xi, and form a party with Concubine Xi, hoping that one day Concubine Xi would be gracious and take her in front of the emperor.

Some other unfavored concubines heard of An Concubine's flattery, and they all began to continue to hold Concubine Xi through An Concubine's words, and naturally there were people with the same prowess as Concubine An, and of course there was another group of cowards who wanted to protect themselves and did not want to offend Concubine Xi.
