Yun Lanzhi fell to the ground and didn't respond for a while.
Fortunately, they were adjusted to sit on the ground, so they didn't suffer many injuries.
And the other people in the palace didn't come back to their senses for a long time.
"Ninth Princess, you are too much."
Xiao Ting's actions were unexpected by everyone, including Concubine Shu, but it was not Zhao Hua who spoke, but the legendary Princess Rui.
Xiao Ting looked back and saw that it was her, the raging smile in her eyes became more intense, and she said, "So it's you, long time no see."
"Why do you dress so plainly? Do you want to stand out? Or are you pretending to be pitiful and weak to win the sympathy of men." Xiao Ting looked up and down the makeup of Princess Rui, and found that her inner garment was actually white. It was extremely clean, as if she was keeping a filial piety for someone
The last time Xiao Ting met Princess Rui was also in the palace. After she disturbed the concubine selection banquet of the third prince, she heard that Chu Yun was fighting with other children. After chasing after her, she found her cheap husband, the Ninth Prince, standing opposite this woman.
The atmosphere was very strange, this woman acted pitifully in front of the Ninth Prince last time, but once the Ninth Prince left, she was still weak. If she hadn't been capable and knew martial arts, she would have suffered even more.
She remembered that she had asked her aunt last time to help her find out about this woman, but unfortunately in the end, her aunt only told her that this woman was Prince Rui's concubine, who was Xu Ge's granddaughter, and that her background was so powerful that it was a complete mess.
Nothing else.
The aunt warned her not to take this girl seriously because she is the concubine of Prince Rui, and when Prince Rui inherits the throne in the future, she will stay in the fief for the rest of her life.
Anyway, I won't see you again, so why bother with her.
It's just that they met again, this time in the palace, and she has a charming appearance, which can make men arouse the desire to protect.
Well, if Xiao Ting didn't know that the woman in front of her could act, even she would feel sorry for her.
Xiao Ting leaned on the stone pillar in the palace, stroked the hair that floated to her forehead with one hand, looked at her with a half-smile, and continued without waiting for Princess Rui to say anything, "You'd better stay out of your own business, otherwise this concubine doesn't mind to settle the score with you last time."
Her words were understated, but they calmed Princess Rui Shi.
When Princess Rui heard the words, she knew that Xiao Ting could not be treated with common sense, she was afraid that she would say something difficult to hear, so she stopped talking immediately.
Seeing this, Xiao Ting looked at Yun Lanzhi who had been lifted up from another angle, and said, "What? Your eyes are so wide, are you not convinced? It is only natural for my concubine to teach you. Besides, if you dare to make irresponsible remarks to this concubine, it depends on whether you can beat this concubine."
"Also, is the background stronger than my concubine's?"
Yun Lanzhi had only heard of Xiao Ting being arrogant and domineering before, but she did not expect that she would be so arrogant in Concubine Shu's palace, she would do anything and beat her up.
At this moment, he is so outspoken, he is simply a lawless master.
This is really embarrassing, Yun Lanzhi is going to run for the third prince's concubine, now the left half of her face is swollen like a pig's head, she really has no face to face anyone, Yun Lanzhi is covering her cheek, feeling a little helpless.
Angry and furious, but he didn't dare to say anything, for fear that Xiao Ting, the second hundred and five, would do something to her again and slap her, because Concubine Shu didn't have time to stop her.
What's more, Xiao Ting seems to be the kind of woman who won't give anyone face.
Yun Lanzhi was angry and impatient, tears rolled in her eyes instantly, she held back and didn't dare to say another word.
"Okay, stop making trouble and talk about business."
No one expected that Concubine Shu would say such a sentence, which was obviously in favor of Xiao Ting, and they regarded their conflict just as a joke.
Yun Lanzhi didn't dare to make a sound, and the others wouldn't stand up for her.
"Speaking of business, Concubine Shu, since everyone wants to see it, I will show them both hands."
As Xiao Ting said, she raised her right hand and waved it lightly. In an instant, blue flames ignited on her fingertips, flickering and flickering. Although it was only such a small cluster, it surprised everyone in the palace.
The entire palace fell into silence again, and everyone stared wide-eyed, not daring to breathe out, for fear that they would blow out the tiny blue flame.
Including Yun Lanzhi, who had been unconvinced just now, and Princess Rui, etc., those who saw Xiao Ting's dislike were inexplicably surprised.
Contrary to them, Zhao Hua ran up to Xiao Ting with an excited face, and said to everyone, "My princess is not lying, you see."
Then, she shook Xiao Ting's other arm and said, "Ting'er, didn't you say you would teach me?"
"Master, you don't mean what you say. My father locked me in the palace and didn't let me go out, and you didn't come into the palace to accompany me. Is there anyone like you who is a master like you to teach me spells?"
When she saw the blue flame jumping between Xiao Ting's fingers, she was inexplicably excited, so why did she care where it was
Xiao Ting clasped her hands together, and the cluster of blue flames in her hands suddenly disappeared without a trace, and everyone looked at her dumbfounded.
They couldn't believe what they saw. There was not a single extra sound in the silent palace.
Only the snapping of Xiao Ting's fingers and Princess Zhaohua's chattering voice.
"My concubine's coming to this show just needs everyone's cooperation. Whoever dares to lose the chain at that time, don't blame my concubine for talking nonsense in front of the queen mother."
For some reason, upon hearing Xiao Ting's words, Yun Lanzhi couldn't help shivering, especially when she saw the jumping blue flame between Xiao Ting's fingers just now, like a ghostly light, as if it was about to burn her.
The next moment, Xiao Ting looked at her, and she involuntarily took a few steps back.
Soon after night fell, a group of women sat together, ate and drank, and then rushed to the place of the banquet, which was still on Tongtian Terrace next to Xinhu Lake.
At this moment, around the heart lake, there are three roads, one post, five steps and one sentry post, and countless wind lanterns are burning, brightly illuminating the entire area around the heart lake.
It's like daytime.
The emperor took the queen and followed the empress dowager to Tongtiantai very early.
The banquet officially started, and a lampstand had already been set up on the Heart Lake, but there was nothing on it, not even a single figure performing on stage.
As time passed, the empress dowager secretly glanced at the empress.
It was obvious that there was some blame, but the queen forwarded the received information to Concubine Shu, but seeing that Concubine Shu was not in a hurry, she owed them and did not express anything else.
It was a square lighthouse with a width of several feet, with lights on all around. Facing everyone was the background wall, which was a mass of black lacquer, occasionally shining with golden light, as if something was inlaid there.
Everyone watched from a distance, but they couldn't see why, so they began to exchange cups and present gifts.
The countertop was still pitch black, and there was nothing there.
The Empress Dowager showed some displeasure, while the Emperor looked at Concubine Shu and the Empress next to her. The Empress looked at Concubine Shu calmly, with a very clear meaning. She left all this to Concubine Shu, while Concubine Shu smiled faintly.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, we'll start right away."
At this time, there was an explosion in the clear sky, and everyone stood up in shock.
From behind the black background wall, something like a big fireball rose slowly.
It was a balloon that looked like a flame.
"What is that?" Someone was surprised.
The balloon with flames was still rising. At this moment, from the left and right sides of the heart lake, a woman in white clothes appeared, paddling the sky towards the center of the heart lake.
Behind them floated a long white gauze, like a fairy descending to earth, and that elegant posture slid past like the wind.
"Mother, that's Xiao Jiu's little concubine." The emperor was surprised.
At this moment, the Ninth Prince was also looking at the sky, with a calm expression, his eyes seemed to be brighter than before, and there was a hint of a smile, but unfortunately everyone was looking at it, no one noticed this scene, otherwise they would surely lose their eyes.
The Ninth Prince, who has always been known as the Immortal, has he ever been moved by anyone or anything
If there is, it is a blasphemy.
"The other one is Princess Zhaohua."
Someone recognized Zhaohua, and the two girls slid past both sides quickly. When the big fireball floated over, they turned over in the air and landed lightly into the basket under the big fireball.
"Huh? How did they get in?"
"What is that? How can it rise to the sky by itself?"
Concubine Shu was standing beside the emperor, with a comfortable smile on her face, she said: "Your Majesty, this is all the idea of the Ninth Concubine."
All the people sat there, looking up at the sky, forgetting to sit down and watch the big ball of fire rising slowly in the air.
Also carrying two people.
"Sit down, what's the point of making a fuss?" The empress dowager was happy, so although she was reprimanded, she had a comfortable smile on her face.
Obviously, this scene really made her happy.
And she already understood that all of this was designed by Concubine Shu, and the eyes she looked at Concubine Shu were a little gentler than usual.
"You have a heart."
"It's all the Ninth Concubine's idea, and the concubines dare not take credit for it." Concubine Shu didn't take the blame.
"Well, that girl is really weird, no wonder many people like her."
Empress Dowager, this can be regarded as a great compliment.
At this time, Yun Lanzhi and the others were half dead from exhaustion. They almost died of anger when they heard what the Empress Dowager said when they returned to the Tongtian Terrace.
They contributed the most, but Xiao Ting, a woman who can only show off, took advantage of it.
That's right, since Xiao Ting came up with an idea, how could it make them feel better? When the hot air balloon first started to rise, because there was no wind, she didn't dare to make too much movement, so she asked Yun Lanzhi and the others to pull it with a rope before letting her take off.
After she and Zhaohua went up, they cut the obscure rope.
At this moment, Xiao Ting and Zhao Hua were standing on the temporary hot air balloon designed by Xiao Ting, very happy. Looking at the crowd below, they began to shout, "Ting'er, you are so amazing. Look, they are all shocked by you, like leopards who have never seen the world."
"No, Ting'er, look quickly, even the emperor's grandmother was frightened by you, and she didn't find it."
Xiao Ting is also very excited, she hasn't played with these things for a long time, she thought she almost forgot, yes, in fact, there are many things she can do in this time and space, such as making the people she cares happy, Zhaohua is one of them.
"Okay, don't get too excited, get ready quickly, don't delay the business." Xiao Ting saw that she was so pleasantly surprised that she couldn't stop, and quickly reminded Zhaohua.
