The news went viral, and it soon spread to the guard's outer mansion. The eldest daughter Wei Pan was looking at a pile of delicacies on the table. She couldn't resist the temptation and wanted to eat two bites. However, upon hearing this, he was so angry that he overturned all the dishes.

Isn't it beauty? When she loses weight, she will be a great beauty.

At this time, her concubine Weiyue was walking in wearing a skirt full of peonies, "Sister, I have thought about it, we can't beat each other. Otherwise, we will lose the face of Weifu. From now on, Let's stand in a boat and try our best to deal with that enchantress."

Wei Pan looked at her suspiciously, "What demon girl?"

Wei Yue laughed, "I just met this morning. It's so beautiful. It's not a demon girl. What is it? A demon girl, everyone can be killed. We must walk the way for the sky and destroy her." Wei Yue's eyes revealed one. The hatred actually made her go back to cure the hidden disease, she has no hidden disease!

"You are right, but we don't know who she is, where she lives, and what identity. How did she ruin her?"

Wei Yue snorted coldly and said bitterly, "These people actually say that the enchantress is a peerless beauty. Where do we put our eldest princess?"

Wei Pan understood at once, "You mean, borrow the hand of the princess to punish the enchantress?"

"Sister, you finally understand. The eldest princess loves beauty very much, and the number one beauty in Nanzhao. We only need to change the news a bit and spread it to the eldest princess' ears." Then, Wei Yue whispered to Wei Pan.

For a while, the eyes of the two were full of cold light, demon girl, wait for death. The eldest princess is angry, you must be no good!

Therefore, the news was spread in the afternoon after the two of them added fuel and jealousy. Nan Zhao came to a peerless beauty, whose beauty was comparable to that of Ning Rulan, and the princess of today was naturally incomparable.

With Ning Rulan who was expelled from the royal family, things were not so simple.

At this moment, Su Xi'er had already arrived at the Beijing Post House, and did not see Pei Qianhao, but was directly assigned to the backyard to do rough work. Not washing the chamber pot, not washing clothes, but doing another thing that she had never done before, chopping wood.

Chopping wood is generally a job for men, and the guards of the Hao Palace had no idea that Hao Wang would actually tell Su Xi'er to chop wood.

Su Xi'er looked at the axe next to her, and held it a bit heavy. She has no experience in chopping wood unless she asks others for advice. Chopping wood also requires skill. If you do it blindly, one big and one small will be out of proportion, or you will just smash your foot.

So Su Xier walked to a guard, "Teach me how to chop wood, otherwise, I can't complete the task assigned by King Hao."

The guard touched his head, and the beauty invited him. It was so kind, but... He had better not interfere in this matter.

Seeing that the guard was unmoved, Su Xi'er didn't embarrass him either. She walked to the firewood and couldn't help but think of Ruoyuan. She is good at chopping wood.

Suddenly, she understood why King Hao asked her to chop wood, and made her think about Ruoyuan. If he did not listen to him, Hongli and Ruoyuan would not be able to eat.

Su Xi'er twisted her eyebrows slightly, then picked up the axe and slashed down at the firewood. The first time he chopped wood, he didn't even hit the wood. The guard on the side couldn't stand it, turned his head, and immediately shifted his eyes.

Then, the guard saw his companion rushing to the backyard hurriedly, screaming.

"In such a panic, King Hao will scold you when he sees it."

The guard stopped, and his voice became quieter, "I inquired about one thing, King Hao didn't know about it. The streets and alleys were spreading, Nan Zhao came to a peerless beauty, and Nan Zhao's former princess Ning Ru Lan is comparable to the present-day eldest princess Ning Anlian. I don’t know how many times more beautiful. You said, we just came to Nanzhao on the front foot, and there was a beauty on the back foot. If King Hao knew, would it be..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by another guard, "It's such a fuss about this matter. I think your heart is itchy, isn't it? That beauty, what's so good, isn't it just..."

The speaking guard saw the look in Su Xi'er's eyes, shut up immediately, and almost spoke out.

When the screaming guard saw Su Xi'er, he understood and immediately pulled his companion away, "Go, drink, Nan Zhao has some kind of wine, I heard it tastes good."

Su Xier put the axe on the log, how could there be such news? Who is the beauty? The person who spread the news had no good intentions. Because no one knows better than her, the three words Ning Rulan have become forbidden in Nanzhao and cannot be said or discussed.

The reason is simple, Su Xier sneered to herself, Ning Rulan was the sinner.

After that, Su Xier was the only one in the backyard chopping wood quietly until the sun set and a full moon rose.

Seeing the full moon in the night sky, Su Xi'er couldn't help laughing, full moon, reunion.

"Su Xi'er, let's go to dinner. I have left a meal for you. King Hao has entered the palace and I don't know when he will be back."

Before the Nanzhao State Banquet began, he advanced into the palace.

Su Xi'er nodded to the guard. The entourage was full of men, and she was a woman. In many things, it was inconvenient.

When she walked to the dining room, Su Xi'er served a small bowl of rice, and thought while eating. After entering the palace and receiving some hospitality, Pei Qianhao must be back late, or will not come back at all.

She wants to take this opportunity to find out who released the news about that beauty. The idea was decided, Su Xi'er turned her eyes, and she couldn't go out in this suit.

In the post house, apart from the guards of the Hao Palace, there are also some small servants and a cook, who everyone calls her aunt.

The lady is petite, so she can give some silver and wear her outfit.

After Su Xi'er had finished her meal, she went to see the aunt. However, the aunt is not there, her clothes are hanging outside. Time is running out. As a last resort, Su Xi'er took off the clothes directly, returned to the house, and changed them immediately.

At night, not many people will observe carefully, let alone a woman. All the guards thought she was a cook and released her out of the post without looking carefully.

After leaving the post house, Su Xi'er walked to the corner of the wall, smeared the wall ash on her face, and then headed towards the tea house.

In the teahouse, it was very lively and there were no empty seats. Guests who came again could only order a few snacks and stand aside to eat.

Su Xi'er changed into a coarse cloth, smeared with wall dust on her face, she looked as gray as it was. Some of the guests in the teahouse were vulgar, shirtless, eating noodles.

"Today's peerless beauty is really comparable to Ning Rulan? I didn't say, we Nan Zhao, Ning Rulan is the most beautiful, although she is dead, in our hearts, she is the most beautiful." A big man just came from the side. Coming out of the tavern, I was so drunk and confused.

The other people immediately winked at him, "Don't kill you. Now, of course, the first beauty of Nan Zhao is Princess An Lian, the princess. Where is Ning Rulan?"

Su Xier stood at the corner of the teahouse, listening quietly.

The teahouse buddy saw her and immediately walked forward, "Girl, what do you want to eat?"
