The rest of the women were still honest, but they peeked at Xie Ji's appearance expectantly, and while blushing, they secretly hoped that His Majesty would take a fancy to them.

Only one girl in pink exclaimed, tilted her body, and made a look of being pushed away, and fell on Xie Ji.

Her face was full of panic, and with three points of grievance, with tears in her eyes, she coquettishly pleaded guiltily: "Your Majesty, the concubine has lost her manners."

As soon as this move came out, the women around were stunned for a moment, and after reacting, they couldn't help but grit their teeth.

To use this method to attract His Majesty's attention is simply a flattering work.

Xie Yu lowered his eyes and saw a red plum hairpin on her head, and couldn't help frowning: "Who taught you to dress up like this?"

As soon as Xie Jian spoke, everyone in the pavilion also looked sideways.

Ahya also noticed the girl's dress, raised her eyebrows slightly, and a little amusement flashed in her eyes.

It's not winter now, and it's hard to find such a red plum.

It's clear that he is deliberately imitating himself.

It's a pity that I chose red plum that day, just to associate this seemingly bright and weak, but frosty and proud image with myself.

Not to mention that this show girl learned the appearance, but she failed to learn the logic inside, she was only blindly weak and pitiful, but let Hongmei suppress it.

Let's just say that after such a long period of strengthening, Hongmei's connection with herself has already been imprinted in Xie Yu's heart, and it can't be easily replaced, this show girl is destined to just be Dong Shi's follower.

Before the show girl could react, she thought that she had gotten Xie Ji's interest, and she was ecstatic in her heart, and stammered and replied, "This ...... There were many sisters in the royal garden, and they all wanted to use hairpins for hairpins, but the concubine did not want to fight with others, so she went to a remote place and broke this plum blossom."

In and out of the words, he not only showed his sensibility and decency, but also stepped on the show girls next to him to compete for flowers, not knowing the proportions.

The faces of the surrounding show girls changed suddenly, they were angry and aggrieved, but they didn't dare to intervene in front of Xie Ji, so they could only grit their teeth and swallow this anger.

Sling the bull! The palace is not on the mountain, at this time, which remote place still has red plums? What's more, there are so many flowers in the imperial garden, everyone is picking their favorite hairpins, how can it get into her mouth, as if she is bullying others for a few flowers?

Concubine Shu also came out with the concubines at this time, and first saluted Xie Yu, and then smiled and praised: "This red plum lining you, my sister is so ingenious."

The show girl blushed, peeked at Xie Yu, and responded softly, shyly and timidly: "Concubine Tan, thank you for your compliment."

Ahya also raised her eyebrows, snorted, glanced at Xie Wei, and saw that there was only impatience on his face, and the corners of his lips were slightly curled.

She is not a soft persimmon, others are so blatantly bullied to the head, and she can swallow her anger.

Ah Hya looked at Tan Cainu, looked at Concubine Shu again, and suddenly smiled: "I think this girl is quite loved by Concubine Shu, I originally thought that the garden was full of spring and charming eyes, but as soon as this red plum came out, the next ones became a foil."

The implication is that Concubine Shu gathered so many beautiful women and girls as stepping stones, and used the vulgarity of all women to set off the difference between Tan Cainu.

Hearing this, the women couldn't help but show a little resentment on their faces.

Concubine Shu's eyes dimmed slightly, and the smile on the corner of her lips faded a little: "All sisters are beauties, naturally they have their own merits, where is there any foil."

Lu Chongyuan also followed: "Isn't Miss Ahya partial to red plums, and seeing that Tan Cainu is seven points similar to you, I like it in my heart, so I said this?"

Her words seemed to be ridiculous, but she also had soft thorns, deliberately pointing out the similarities between Tan Cainu and Ahya to respond to Ahya.

Ahya squinted slightly, and before she could speak, she was held by Xie Yu.

Xie Yu's eyes were slightly cold, and he glanced at Tan Cainu condescendingly, and his voice was full of displeasure: "Who said that seven points are similar? It has no form and no god, and it is just a matter of imitation."

Tan Cainu's face suddenly turned pale, as if she had been slapped in the face, and her eyes suddenly filled with tears, and she didn't dare to speak.

Concubine Shu's face was also a little bad, she didn't think about it

When Ahya would have such a place in Xie Ji's heart, even such a beauty couldn't get into his eyes, but ushered in a reprimand.

Originally, I thought that if I found a few more beautiful concubines, I would always be able to share a few favors, but now I have no confidence.

Concubine Shu's eyes were cold for a moment, she still had a smile on her face, and she turned around in the middle: "Lu Chongyuan too, what you think is similar, I'm afraid it's because the two younger sisters are beautiful women, so it's wrong." Z.br>

Lu Chongyuan lowered her eyes and admitted her mistake: "It's the concubine who lost her words, she shouldn't have joked like this, and she never wanted to upset His Majesty."

Concubine Shu bowed her head, looked at Xie Yu again, and said tentatively: "There are plants in this Red Plum Palace, and Tan Cainu is also for humility, so she has temporarily violated the taboo of Miss Ahya, so Your Majesty will spare her."

There are two meanings in this statement. The first layer is to intercede for Tan Cainu, and also to see if Xie Jian is really dissatisfied, or if he is acting for Ahya's face. The second layer stepped on Ahya's foot and made her domineering, even a flower must be unique, and no one else can use it.

Ahya sighed in her heart, raised her eyes to look at Concubine Shu, and seemed to smile: "Concubine Shuniang said carefully, when did I ever have such a taboo? It's just a flower, how to use it, it's just everyone's preference, but I say that I am like some kind of goblin, I want to collect all the red plums in the world into the palace to absorb the essence."

Xie Yu chuckled, fell in love with her bright appearance with flying eyebrows, reached out and took Ahya's hand, pressed it on his fingertips and rubbed it gently: "What do you want Hongmei essence to do?" My ...... Isn't it all on you?"

actually accompanied her to gag.

Concubine Shu's pupils shrank, her fingers tightened, and she didn't even notice that her nails were digging into her flesh, and she forced the calm on her face: "Your Majesty."

Her eyes were gloomy, and her heart felt like a stone had been crushed.

Your Majesty's appearance is clearly moved by true feelings.

This Ahya, if he stays, I am afraid that he will become a big problem for his henchmen.

Concubine Shu interrupted the intimacy of the two and forced a smile: "The banquet has been prepared, please invite Your Majesty to the table."

She lowered her eyes and saluted, and respectfully invited Xie Ji to take a seat.

Xie Yu replied casually, then led Ahya and walked into the pavilion.

The concubines followed closely and sat down in order.

The picking girls and the show girls also scattered as birds and beasts, around the pavilion, laughing and playing among the flowers by the stream, and their eyes glanced at the pavilion from time to time, hoping to meet Xie Ji.

Only Tan Cainu was still kneeling in the flowers, with tears in her eyes, but her eyes were cruel and abnormal.

She remained silent, slowly removed the red plum between her temples, tore off the petals, and rubbed them in her hands viciously.

Flower juice dripped down her palms like the fury of her ambition being broken.

Ahya!

Tan Cainu wrote down the name.

One day, I will climb on her head to avenge today's humiliation.
