Everything in the eldest princess's house is naturally excellent. Even the Biluochun was picked from the tenderest leaf in the middle and washed away with boiling water, so that it has such a fragrant aroma.
"Miss Xie is a smart person. She should know who is worthy of her status and who is not. His Highness the Second Prince is an extremely noble person. How can he hang out with someone like you?"
Zhang Xiuyan's words were belittling Xie Ruzhuo. Although the Xie family was also a powerful family in the capital, they were no better than the royal family. Zhang Xiuyan seized on this and tried to make Xie Ruzhuo retreat.
Unexpectedly, Xie Ruzhuo smiled slightly and said with a leisurely expression, "As the saying goes, those who are near the water and the towers get the moon first, but Miss Zhang doesn't seem to understand the beauty of it."
"What do you mean by this?"
Zhang Xiuyan was confused when she heard this and thought it was Xie Ruzhuo who was playing tricks on her.
"It seems that everyone in the world knows that Miss Zhang is in love with His Highness the Second Prince. It is said that His Highness the Second Prince is Miss Zhang's cousin, and we have many opportunities to get along with him. However, could it be that Zhuo'er got it wrong? Yes, His Highness the Second Prince didn’t seem to look at Miss Zhang just now.”
As he said this, Xie Ruzhuo glanced at Zhang Xiuyan's apricot-yellow spring shirt intentionally or unintentionally. It was beautiful, but a little too rustic. Coupled with Zhang Xiuyan's overly rich makeup today, it really seemed to overwhelm the guest.
The protagonist today is the eldest princess, the birthday girl. Zhang Xiuyan is not afraid of being resented by the eldest princess by being so grand.
Zhang Xiuyan became a little angry when she was reminded by Xie Ruzhuo's "kindness". She had always been attracted to Xiao Junhan, but Xiao Junhan had no intention of her. No matter how she behaved, she could not get into Xiao Junhan's eyes.
"Perhaps some foxy girl seduced my cousin's soul, so my cousin couldn't see clearly just now. I think my cousin is a dragon among men in Wen Tao and Wu Lu. In the future, we will definitely know who is Fengxiao and who is sparrow. !”
Zhang Xiuyan pointed at Sang and scolded Huai all the time, and when she got emotional, she even turned red in the face. On the contrary, Xie Ruzhuo, who was being scolded, was taking it easy, as if she was not the one being scolded.
After Zhang Xiuyan finally stopped talking, Xie Ruzhuo slowly smiled and continued to rub salt into the other person's wounds, "Yes, His Highness the Second Prince is very close to Miss Zhang, but Zhuo'er It's strange that Miss Zhang should be the best choice for His Highness the Second Prince, but Zhuo'er's eyesight is clumsy and he can't see any clues."
"you!"
If it weren't for the presence of many young ladies, Zhang Xiuyan almost slapped Xie Ruzhuo with her palm. Fortunately, she still had the last shred of reason and knew that Xiao Junhan always disliked arrogant and domineering women, so she refrained from making a move. But those words were full of warning, "Xie Ruzhuo, I am the second prince's cousin after all. You'd better be polite to me, otherwise if I get the chance, I will definitely make you look good!"
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but sneered, ignoring the threat in Zhang Xiuyan's words. Of all of you here, which one is not a relative of the royal family or related to the royal family? She, Zhang Xiuyan, was just the nephew of a wise concubine, yet she was so arrogant and arrogant that she was not afraid of being slapped in the face if she got too arrogant one day.
"Miss Zhang has the time to argue with me, so it's better to focus on His Highness the Second Prince, lest some foxy girl really entangles His Highness the Second Prince, and Miss Zhang will regret it later."
After saying that, Xie Ruzhuo's eyes drifted away, as if I don't want to talk to you, just go away.
Xie Ruzhuo, just wait for me!
Zhang Xiuyan suffered a loss, but she didn't intend to let Xie Ruzhuo go. Otherwise, wouldn't she be laughed at by Xie Ruzhuo when they meet again in the future
As she thought about it, she deliberately took the teacup that Xie Ruzhuo had put on the table. She heard an "ouch" sound and accidentally knocked over the teacup. But by chance, all the tea spilled on Xie Ruzhuo's body. The good spring shirt So dirty.
Xie Ruzhuo frowned, Zhang Xiuyan obviously did it on purpose, just to embarrass her.
Anyway, this place is very stuffy, so I just took advantage of the time to change clothes and go out to get some fresh air, so as not to see Zhang Xiuyan's face again.
"It was Yan'er who accidentally soiled Miss Xie's clothes. I hope Miss Xie won't blame her."
There was an obvious look of pride on Zhang Xiuyan's face, but Xie Ruzhuo never saw the slightest trace of guilt on her face.
"There are rumors that Miss Zhang is not good at female prostitutes. I didn't believe it at first, but now that I see you can't even serve a cup of tea, I believe that the rumors are not true. Forget it, I won't argue with you." Xie Ruzhuo sneered, After saying a few words to Zhang Xiuyan, she got up to change clothes.
At this moment, Xie Ruyue's voice was heard, "Zhuo'er, I'll go with you."
Hearing the commotion here, Xie Ruyue hurried over. She was too scared about what happened in the palace last time, so she was worried about Xie Ruzhuo going alone. The eldest princess's mansion is huge, and Xie Ruzhuo is not familiar with the place, so it is always good to have someone to take care of her.
After they and the eldest princess took leave, Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruyue were led by the maids to the other garden to change clothes. When Xie Ruzhuo turned around inadvertently, he happened to catch a glimpse of Shen Jingci's gloating face.
That's right, this matter is probably related to Shen Jingci. Zhang Xiuyan is so clueless that Shen Jingci took advantage of her and poured tea on her.
Xie Ruzhuo and Shen Jingci looked at each other, and the air was filled with invisible swords and sword shadows. In the end, Xie Ruzhuo smiled slightly. Who can prove that it was Zhang Xiuyan who was instigated by Shen Jingci? If you really care about this, you will lose your own worth.
There was no shortage of clothes in the eldest princess's residence. When he entered the inner palace, Xie Ruzhuo picked a piece of clothing at random. As if to make him angry, Xie Ruzhuo actually picked a piece of clothing that was similar to the one that was stained. , thinking of the various looks Zhang Xiuyan might have, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but laugh childishly.
Seeing her behavior like this, Xie Ruyue couldn't help but smile and said, "Why bother?"
No need for Xie Ruyue to elaborate, Xie Ruzhuo also knew what she meant. Normally, Xie Ruzhuo might not be as knowledgeable as Zhang Xiuyan, but today, for some reason, she just wanted to see Zhang Xiuyan look deflated.
"Second sister, don't you think the color of these clothes is wonderful?"
Seeing the cute smile on her little sister's face, Xie Ruyue could only nod helplessly. Since Xie Ruzhuo liked her, she didn't stop her. It was just a piece of clothing, so why bother to be so cautious.
After leaving the room, the two of them realized that the maid who had led them here was missing. They called several times but received no response. Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruyue looked at each other, feeling a little confused. As usual, people from the eldest princess's mansion shouldn't be so rude. It's too unruly for the maid to leave before the guests come out.
It's just that this banquet must go back eventually, otherwise the eldest princess will definitely feel unhappy if she finds out.
Without the maid, the two of them had no choice but to walk back along the way they came. However, the eldest princess's mansion was so huge that the two of them wandered around for a while. Not only did they not find the way they came, they actually got lost in this huge mansion. In the backyard.
Thinking that they would not be able to go back for a while, Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruyue simply slowed down and admired the scenery at the eldest princess's residence.
"The maid in the eldest princess's house was also a little naughty, but after a while, she disappeared. If the eldest princess blames her, we will file a lawsuit properly!"
Xie Ruyue was a little tired from walking and couldn't help but get angry. She picked off an innocent flower and pulled off the petals one by one.
"Today's feast, there must be a lot of things going on in the house, so it's normal for there to be some discrepancies." Before Xie Ruzhuo finished speaking, he suddenly stopped, pulled Xie Ruyue to stop, and whispered, "Did Second Sister hear you? "
Before Xie Ruzhuo said it, Xie Ruyue had not paid attention. After hearing Xie Ruzhuo's words, she immediately listened attentively.
In the hazy moonlight, several women's gasps came from not far away, occasionally mixed with men's low gasps, "My dear, do you want to work harder?"
The woman seemed to be murmuring or sobbing, "Yes, yes!"
"Oh? What do you want?" The man's voice was a bit sinister, and his words became more and more wanton.
Xie Ruyue couldn't help but blush slightly. The voice was so embarrassing that she didn't know what to do for a moment. In this huge eldest princess's house, they were guests and should not have walked around randomly. Now that they encountered this scene, Xie Ruyue suddenly became a little panicked.
It was Xie Ruzhuo who reacted faster. In her previous life, she remembered that a very sensational thing had happened in the eldest princess's mansion, and she was still in the bureau at the time. Because of that mistake, she was later violently retaliated against!
As soon as he thought of this, Xie Ruzhuo immediately frowned and pulled Xie Ruyue, telling her to leave quickly. Such a place of right and wrong was not a place where young girls like them should stay. Not only did they not feel good about the two people inside, but Well, the reputations of Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruyue are also not good.
But she couldn't help it, and just when she was about to leave, she suddenly felt her knee being hit hard by an unknown object. Xie Ruzhuo immediately screamed out in pain, and Xie Ruyue immediately covered her mouth.
The man was in high spirits when he suddenly heard a woman's muffled groan not far away. He immediately stopped and shouted warily, "Who!"
It's so quiet here. Could it be that someone discovered it
Because of the rockery and the dense trees and grass, the man didn't notice the two petite figures hiding in the night.
Xie Ruzhuo and Xie Ruyue didn't dare to breathe, and even the tips of their noses had beads of sweat. This time, not only Xie Ruzhuo, but also Xie Ruyue recognized the man's voice! Now I can only pray to the Bodhisattva to protect me and prevent that person from discovering my two sisters!
"Husband-in-law, the sound just now must be the birds in this rockery. This place is very remote and rarely populated. You don't need to be so panicked."
Suddenly, a soft and tender voice was heard, and the woman immediately hugged the man, looking like she was still hungry and thirsty.
Xie Ruzhuo hid in the grass, clutching the corners of his clothes tightly, feeling extremely uneasy. Xie Ruyue felt that the voice seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it.
Just when the two sisters were highly nervous, they heard the man say in a deep voice, "It's better to be more vigilant. If the princess finds out, there will be no good end for you and me. You can leave quickly first, and I will go and see." See who is here."
After all, the prince-in-law is a vigilant person. It is not easy for him to get what he has today. He must not let any short-sighted person ruin their good deeds. He complained to the eldest princess. If this is really the case, let alone glory and wealth, I am afraid that Life is not guaranteed.
The woman let out a sweet sigh. Although she was reluctant in every possible way, she finally listened to the consort. She stood up, straightened her clothes, and followed the consort out.
She is actually the eldest princess’s personal maid, Ruyi!
