What fish, what shrimp!
Give Jiang Xuening a hundred more courage and she will not dare to eat it!
but…
As soon as she talked about food, peach sliced cake couldn't help but pop up in her head. If it was the man in front of him who personally came and asked her to eat, wouldn't it be impossible
No, no, no, hurry up to dispel this dangerous thought!
Xie Wei was taboo that she knew those things that others didn't know about him. If she wanted to say it accidentally, God knows where this person will go, and it would be a real disaster to come out of her mouth, which would not be good.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuening showed an embarrassed smile on his face, and he was nervous, and carefully defended himself: "Last night, I slept in the palace of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess. I'm not very used to it, so I will be sleepy today..."
Xie Wei's brows moved slightly: "At the eldest princess's side?"
Jiang Xuening nodded very sincerely, and when he raised his arms, the wide and delicate palace sleeves dangled, and said, "Really, you see, even the clothes were found by the eldest princess."
The girl looked at him with a bit of timidity, as if she knew that she had made a big mistake, but she didn't mean to deny it, although she also found a reason for herself...
Xie Wei looked at her palace attire, and frowned.
But when he spoke, his voice was much calmer than before: "If you haven't slept well, go back and make up for some sleep. It just so happens that I have something to do today."
Jiang Xuening was overjoyed. He didn't expect Xie Wei to talk so easily, so he wanted to compliment him: "Mr. Xie is really reasonable..."
Unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Xie Wei added lightly: "The classes missed today will be made up tomorrow."
Jiang Xuening: "..."
She should have known! Xie should be so unforgiving! She was too happy!
Xie Wei saw with his own eyes the stagnant smile on the girl's lips, and the bright face that had just appeared on his face instantly sank. For some reason, the dark clouds that had accumulated in his heart dissipated a little, and said, "If the fingering I told you today, you I must do it tomorrow, if not…”
Jiang Xuening nodded immediately as if pounding garlic: "Yes, yes, yes!"
Xie Wei endured a smile, gave a flat "um", walked out of the side hall first, and went to the Qianqing Palace with the eunuch who had come to pass the news earlier.
Seeing him walking away, Jiang Xuening finally let out a sigh of relief: "It scared me to death!"
At this moment, in the Jiang Mansion, some people were also frightened.
This afternoon, Mrs. Meng will take Jiang Xuehui to Hanshan Temple to pray for blessings.
Sitting in the house drinking tea and talking before leaving.
Meng Shi remembered Jiang Boyou's words for Jiang Xuening's protection, and sighed softly, "Originally, the name of the companion in our house was reported to be you, but somehow Ning Jie'er was let in. She followed Wan Niang, I have learned an intolerant temperament, and I am afraid that it will not make you feel better in the future. Now that Yongyi Hou’s mansion is suffering, and His Royal Highness King Linzi is about to choose his concubine, I only hope that you can go to seek a good lottery today and have a little luck.”
Jiang Xuehui sat under her head, but did not speak.
His eyes drooped, only falling on the embroidered handkerchief on his leg, and he still can't understand the meaning of Jiang Xuening's words that day.
At this time, the housekeeper outside suddenly rushed in and communicated: "Madam, the father-in-law in the palace is here!"
Meng Shi and Jiang Xuehui stood up almost at the same time.
Meng shi's face turned pale, and her voice trembled: "Is it about the upwards? Did something happen to the master? Or did Ning Jie'er cause trouble in the palace again?"
Where does this butler know
It's just that everyone in Jiang's house knows that the second girl in the family had a very thrilling encounter in the palace a few days ago. She has been facing up and has been uneasy recently. Now that there are people in the palace, they can't help but think about bad things.
Unexpectedly, the father-in-law who came in was full of smiles, bowed and said: "Madam is polite, the eldest girl is polite, our family has been ordered by His Royal Highness Princess Leyang to leave the palace, and the special Xuan Jiang girl enters the palace. Accompanying the reading, I also asked the eldest girl to tidy up a little and enter the palace with our family, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is waiting urgently."
It was Huang Renli, who was waiting beside Shen Zhiyi.
However, Meng Shi and Jiang Xuehui didn't know each other, and when they heard these words, they were surprised for a while.
Meng Shi couldn't believe it: "Well, how could Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess announce our eldest girl into the palace?"
She was even a little frightened when she said this.
Only said: "Could it be that the second girl in our house caused trouble?"
Huang Renli had just come out of the palace, and he knew very well about Jiang Xuening's stay with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess last night. Hearing Meng's words, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, and the smile on his face faded a little, and said, "Mrs. Don't worry too much, our Highness loves the second girl Jiang very much, and left the second girl in the palace last night. But when the second girl was using the cake bait in the morning, she said that she remembered the cake bait made by the eldest girl, our highness I kept it in my heart, I guessed that she missed her relatives, so I sent my family to pick up the eldest girl into the palace, and also accompany His Highness to read, so I see it every day, so I don't want to leave the palace."
"… "
Meng Shi suddenly lost his voice when he choked.
Princess Leyang let Jiang Xuehui enter the palace, but not because she likes Jiang Xuehui, nor because of her outstanding talent, but because Jiang Xuening casually said a word when she was using the shortbread this morning!
Jiang Xuehui was even more surprised.
She knew in her heart how much Jiang Xuening had hated her since she returned to Beijing, and she was reluctant to give her a good face, but now she even told Princess Leyang that she remembered the shortcake she made...
Jiang Xuehui does make shortbread.
But God knew that she had served it to Jiang Xuening, but Jiang Xuening poured all the desserts she made on the ground in front of her! Then he smiled embarrassedly and said to her, "I'm sorry, I wasted your time by not paying attention."
But she was also very quick to respond.
Meng's hesitation made Huang Renli frown slightly.
Jiang Xuehui hurriedly bowed and said, "Thanks to His Highness the Eldest Princess for his love, and Xuehui thanked His Highness the Eldest Princess for his grace, so I will pack up and go with my father-in-law."
Huang Renli thought that this girl was quite clever, so he nodded, his face slightly sullen.
Jiang Xuening, who managed to escape from Xie Wei's hands, returned to Yangzhizhai from the side hall of Fengchen Palace. He didn't even use lunch, so he plunged into his bed and closed his eyes and covered his head to sleep. .
She didn't wake up until someone from the palace called her in the afternoon.
It turned out that Princess Leyang had become very playful these days, and asked the palace people in her palace to play pot throwing together, and she simply came to Yangzhizhai and called her companions.
Everyone entered the palace first to accompany Shen Zhiyi to study, and secondly to be her playmate.
Shen Zhiyi has an invitation, who would dare not go
Jiang Xuening slept just right, so he quickly got up to wash up, and went to Mingfeng Palace with everyone.
Shen Zhiyi was playing crazy with the people, and the palace servants in the palace rarely saw her happy and were playing with her.
As soon as Jiang Xuening stepped into the hall, the corner of his mouth twitched.
I don't know where Shen Zhiyi learned the tricks. Some palace servants had long notes on their faces, and even painted their faces with ink brushes. They looked a little dejected. Obviously, they were "punished" for losing.
As soon as the companions came, they were immediately pulled by her to play together.
There were naturally some people in the middle who were eager to take this opportunity to please Shen Zhiyi, so they were very active.
Jiang Xuening is not.
She didn't eat at noon, and was a little hungry. Seeing that there were still some candied cakes in the hall, she didn't catch up.
Of course Shen Zhiyi saw her at a glance, but when she saw her sitting there eating, she thoughtfully didn't call her.
Everyone played a round of pitching first.
With an arrow in her hand, Shen Zhiyi often hits with a single shot. She is considered a good player and often wins applause from everyone, and Jiang Xuening applauds from a distance.
But some people didn't get used to her being so leisurely, so they greeted her and said, "Don't Miss Jiang come to play? I heard that you used to hang out in the market, and you must be the best at games like throwing pots, so don't come and show us your hand. ?"
Jiang Xuening looked up and saw Chen Shuyi.
This lady had a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, looking at her with deep eyes and mocking her expression.
Jiang Xuening just took a small bite of the candied fruit in his hand, put it down gently, and was about to speak.
Unexpectedly, Shen Zhiyi frowned and said directly to Chen Shuyi: "Didn't you see Ning Ning eating, she will come to play after eating, what are you talking about?"
This is too rude to say!
Everyone was stunned!
Chen Shuyi herself did not expect it at all, her mouth opened slightly, and she was at a loss for a while.
You must know that Chen Shuyi is also the jewel in the palm of Chen Dashu's hand, and her status is also considered noble. She plays with Xiao Shu every day. Who doesn't sell her face in the palace
Even Shen Zhiyi used to be kind to her.
Now it's just a question to Jiang Xuening, which directly caused her to have a seizure
Chen Shuyi's face was a little overwhelmed, red and white, and she opened her mouth to defend herself: "His Royal Highness, I didn't..."
Shen Zhiyi lost her expression on her face, and said coldly, "If you don't mean it, just close your mouth."
The hall was instantly silent.
Jiang Xuening also stared blankly at Shen Zhiyi.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Princess Leyang doesn't seem to be in a good mood, and her words are completely protecting Jiang Xuening. Even a lady like Chen Shuyi doesn't want to give any face.
What is Jiang Xuening's ability to fascinate people like this
You Yue had a big revenge with Jiang Xuening during the rest period, and hated her deeply, but she no longer dared to say anything, let alone do anything, for fear of falling into Jiang Xuening's trap, so she could only use her eyes at this moment. to express his contempt and indignation towards Jiang Xuening.
Then…
She hadn't had time to think about waiting for a while, Jiang Xuening turned her eyes, what kind of look she had to make to Jiang Xuening to arouse the other party's unhappiness and anger, this look was already seen by Shen Zhiyi.
Shen Zhiyi stared at her for a moment, then raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean by looking at Ning Ning with such eyes?"
Yu Yue: ? ? ? ? ?
She was completely stunned.
Say no to, can't do it, that's all, now you can't even use your eyes? !
You Yue was so frightened that she directly looked back and said tremblingly, "I, I..."
Shen Zhiyi didn't listen at all: "If you look at Ning Ning with this look again, I'll ask someone to dig out your eyeballs!"
You Yue shivered, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, her face turned pale instantly, and she almost knelt on the ground to admit her mistake. At this moment, she didn't even dare to lift her head, she just said, "Yes, yes."
First, Chen Shuyi was trained immediately for not doing anything, but You Yue was threatened with a horrific look in her eyes, and the other companions felt that the atmosphere was not right.
Most people are afraid to speak.
Yao Xi glanced at Chen Shuyi and You Yue as well, and softly opened her mouth to persuade, "Sister Shuyi shouldn't have any ill intentions, and Second Lady You just glanced at her. Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, may have misunderstood. ?"
"misunderstanding?"
Shen Zhiyi didn't call them here today because she didn't really want to play pot throwing. She hadn't forgotten Jiang Xuening's sentence "I have a bad day here" in the morning. I was not careful in the past, but now I pay attention to it secretly, and I can see a lot of clues.
She sneered.
Carrying the pen that painted the face of the palace servant who had lost just now, he slowly paced up to Yao Xi, looked her up and down, and said, "Miss Yao is sympathetic to the heavens and the people, or else I'll tell the emperor brother, just Sending you to Baiyun Nunnery to be a sister-in-law, so that your compassionate heart can be used?"
Yao Xike did not show any malice towards Jiang Xuening, but just stood up and said something for Chen Shuyi and You Yue!
He even threatened to be sent to be a nun!
What kind of girl would dare to face such a thing
Everyone took a deep breath.
Yao Xi didn't even think that if she said a fair word, she would also be scolded. She felt both hatred and fear in her heart. She clenched her fingers quietly, and the situation was extremely embarrassing, but she didn't even dare to say a word.
Jiang Xuening's candied fruit is still in his mouth, with some sour sweetness.
At this moment, he was so shocked that he couldn't swallow.
Her eyes wandered among the crowd, and then fell back on Shen Zhiyi's body. She had no idea what the madness of the noble princess was going on, and she would scold him no matter what.
Although she feels...
So cool!
When Shen Zhiyi turned her eyes, she met her slightly adoring gaze, a red glow flew over her face, and she felt white clouds floating under her feet, and her whole body was about to fly up, so she pretended to inadvertently avoid it. look.
He turned his head to face the others but his face was cold.
He actually said loudly: "I said it in the past, whoever dares to blame Ningning, don't blame me for being rude. I didn't expect that there would always be someone who would fall by the wayside. Don't think that you are here today to have fun with you. I warn you—as long as this princess can manage, whoever wants to make Ning Ning unhappy, I will make her ten times more unhappy!"
The arrow for throwing the pot is still on the table.
The faces of the palace people were still sticky with notes and ink marks.
But the jokes and laughter just now had been swept away.
The companions finally understood after reading this, it turned out that they were called by Li Wei today!
For Jiang Xuening alone!
For a while, they all had their own thoughts, but after hearing what Shen Zhiyi said before, no one dared to open their mouths to refute, or speak for whom, without exception, all of them were trembling.
Xiao Shu was relatively calm.
It's just that she quietly retracted her gaze towards Jiang Xuening, and when she lowered her head, she couldn't help but feel a little more fearful and unhappy. Because, Shen Zhiyi's warning undoubtedly included her.
But her identity is different after all.
With Empress Dowager Xiao around, she wasn't too concerned about Shen Zhiyi's words, and she wasn't as stupid as the others.
"His Royal Highness, someone has arrived."
At this moment, Huang Renli had a festive smile on his face, walked into the hall with a whisk in hand, bowed and bowed to Shen Zhiyi, saying this.
Everyone couldn't help but look at him.
At this moment, he was very puzzled: someone picked it up, who
Shen Zhiyi's expression suddenly loosened, and she seemed to be happy too. She actually walked to Jiang Xuening's side and said to Huang Renli: "Call someone in and give Ningning a surprise!"
Huang Renli waved his hand.
Jiang Xuehui, who was waiting outside, pursed her mind, bowed her body and walked in from outside the hall, without looking sideways or daring to look at it, her hands holding the embroidered handkerchief were folded in front of her, and she bowed straight ahead and saluted: "My minister Jiang Xuehui, I have seen Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, Her Royal Highness Jin An!"
It turned out to be Jiang Xuening's sister, Jiang Xuehui, the eldest lady of the Jiang family!
Everyone was immediately surprised.
Shen Zhiyi waved her hand and said, "Let's be flat. From today onwards, you will also be one of this princess' companions. You are Ning Ning's older sister. Having you with Ning Ning will make her happier."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone's eyes widened: One Jiang family has two companions? And listening to the eldest princess's words, it means that such a person was specially called to accompany Jiang Xuening!
Any expression at any time.
Different from Jiang Xuening, who only returned to Beijing at the age of fourteen or fifteen, Jiang Xuenhui is a serious girl who was taught by a high-stakes family in Beijing. It's a totally different feeling.
But no one was happy about it.
Jiang Xuehui thanked Princess Leyang for her grace, and then got up.
Her embroidered handkerchief was originally between her fingers, and with the movement of getting up, it also gently dropped and unfolded, and the red ginger flower embroidered on the snow-white corner was revealed during the shaking.
Xiao Shu frowned when she saw people at first.
But when this embroidered handkerchief attached to this red ginger flower fell into her eyes, she was originally calm and could not be disturbed, just like the detachment that did not put herself in the crowd, it suddenly collapsed, and her complexion changed suddenly!
Shen Zhiyi took Jiang Xuening's hand and smiled as if taking credit: "How is it, Ningning, are you happy now?"
Jiang Xuening's eyes flicked to Xiao Shu, and her eyes were actually right at her. Seeing her expression, she suddenly realized that Xiao Shu at this age is nothing more than this.
If you dare to harm me, I will dare to put the person you really fear under your nose!
Make you sleepy and sleepless, restless!
Her sister may not be a fuel-efficient lamp, and I ask you to be optimistic!
There was a kind smile on his lips, and when Jiang Xuening looked back at Shen Zhiyi, he was already smiling sincerely, and said sweetly, "His Royal Highness, it's a pleasure!"
