Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 575
It was the first time for Liandong to see the princess.

She straightened her back, tried her best to look neither humble nor overbearing, and even dared to sneak a glance at the opposite side.

The pink and white beaded jade curtain was pushed aside, and the first thing that came into view were more than a dozen maidservants.

Everyone is wearing crimson palace attire, or holding a tray, or holding a whisk, or carrying a water bottle, walking lightly through the room, busy with their own work.

The room is very quiet, but there is no dullness, but there is a kind of orderly peace.

Lonicera was a little surprised.

I thought there would be a lot of trouble here, but it's like nothing happened?
With doubts, he looked up again and saw a wooden couch carved with crabapple flowers.

Two court ladies stood guard in front of the couch, pinching the legs of the person on the couch.

Liandong searched left and right out of the corner of her eye, but couldn't find the girl she saw at the gate of the courtyard just now.

Such a big living person, how can he disappear without seeing it?Is it hidden?
That's right, after all, the dignified concubine of the crown prince actually wants to personally put a beauty beside the prince in order to achieve the purpose of securing his favor. This kind of thing is too shameful.

She smiled inwardly, and finally set her eyes on the man.

She was ordered to come here today, one is to find out the truth, and the other is to win a game for her own girl. No matter what, she must not show any emotions that she shouldn't have.

But at first glance, she couldn't help being startled.

Pea green clothes, pale white beaded flowers, leaning lazily on the light purple soft pillow, is this the crown princess who has been spoiled by the crown prince for more than half a year?
Lonicera immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought she would be a stern and stern character, at worst she would be a majestic concubine, but who would have thought that she would be so delicate?
In terms of aura and appearance, she is still more than two points weaker than her own girl!

She slightly raised her chest, with a hint of complacency in her expression.

It seems that it only takes three to five days for my girl to win...

With a slight smile, she bent her knees and bowed gracefully, and made a big gift to the people above: "My servant Liandong, at the order of our young lady, came to give the crown princess a gift."

As she spoke, she raised her hands horizontally, and the golden box was placed in her palm, reflecting in her eyes, there was a kind of eager light: "Prince Princess, don't be disgusted, this is a gift specially made for our lady by our wife when she was in Guizhou." It was prepared, our lady liked it so much, it was kept at the bottom of the box for three or four years and she was reluctant to take it out—”

"Our lady said that now that she has lived in the East Palace, the Crown Princess will be the center of everything. Our lady is stupid and clumsy, and I hope the Crown Princess can give some pointers."

Boldly looking up again, seeing Zhao Xi slightly squinting her eyes, she didn't seem to have any displeasure, she strengthened her conjecture in her heart, "Although the gift is small, it is our lady's heart , I hope the Crown Princess will not dislike her."

After speaking, he stopped talking, and looked at Zhao Xiwei neither humble nor overbearing.

It caused all the maids in the house to frown.

A young lady's personal servant girl, how dare she be so arrogant!
Could it be true that our princess fell out of favor?
Before Zhao Xiwei could speak, Qiao Yunqian, who was sitting next to her, glanced over: "You girl has a clever mouth, no wonder Gu Yuci sent you to be this errand."

With a chuckle, he said leisurely, "It's just that I want to say something to her. It's about giving gifts. The most important thing is sincerity. As for whether the words are good or not, that's the second."

Lonicera's face changed slightly.

I thought to myself, where did this girl come from, she is so ignorant of the rules?
And secretly annoyed, the princess hasn't said anything yet, why is it your turn to speak?
It seems that I have to remind my daughter well - the crown princess is nothing to worry about, but the helper of the crown princess is definitely difficult to deal with.

She lowered her eyelids and said with a faint smile: "Miss taught me the lesson, the servant girl is indeed talkative." Then she looked at Zhao Xiwei again.

The meaning is obvious: the only one who is qualified to speak in this room is the Crown Princess, you're a girl who doesn't know where you came from, it's better not to meddle in your own business.

"It's good to know that you are wrong." Zhao Xiwei played uneasy, "I let you in for the sake of the Gu family. As for the gift or not, I don't care too much. As for the advice -"

She sat upright, looked at the frozen honeysuckle, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and said with a smile: "Your lady is a smart person, what should not be said and what should not be done, she naturally knows what to do, what is the use of it?" Let me give you pointers?"

Lonicera was taken aback.

Unexpectedly, this delicate concubine has a temperament that hides needles.

His heart froze, but on the face he smiled embarrassingly, and said haha: "The princess is right, it's just that our lady is planning ahead, if you accidentally bump into the princess and don't know it, then it's really a damn sin. .”

"This is really nothing to worry about." Zhao Xiwei took the teacup and smiled brightly: "Cousin Aci was restrained by His Royal Highness yesterday, and it is unknown when it will be lifted, so how could she have a chance to bump into me? "

"..." Until now, Liandong didn't know what it means to kill with a soft knife.

She still stood there neither humble nor overbearing, but suddenly felt a chill down her back.

She managed to calm down, and said: "The princess taught me the lesson, and our lady thinks the same way, but, just..." Hesitated for a while, and then said, "It's just that there are so many people in the palace, I don't know where our lady heard it from." With one ear, he said that it was because he offended the princess and made her unhappy, so His Royal Highness grounded her."

The dog jumped over the wall when he was in a hurry, being forced by such a soft knife, Liandong only felt his palms sweat profusely, so he gritted his teeth secretly: "Our lady does not believe such rumors, everyone knows that you and Your Highness I have always been loving, and I know that the princess is pure in nature, how could you be really angry about this kind of thing..."

"I'm angry."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Xi with a smile. Liandong never thought it would be like this, and he hesitated for a while and couldn't continue: "Crown Princess, you, you, you..."

"Yeah, I'm angry, what's there to cover up?" Zhao Xiwei raised a corner of his lips, "Otherwise, why do you think Your Highness grounded your lady? Hey——"

She shook her head and sighed faintly, "It's a pity that your highness is so intentional, and your lady doesn't understand at all. Should I say she is really stupid or pretending to be stupid?"

"..."

Stealing chickens will not lose rice.

Originally, I wanted to try it out for my young lady, but I was defeated by this attempt.

Liandong had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "It's okay for the Crown Princess to be angry with our young lady, but please don't be angry with His Royal Highness. If you and His Highness have a rift over this, then our young lady will become a sinner."

Kneeling in front of the couch again, he cupped his hands and handed the golden box to Zhao Xiwei's eyes, and said respectfully: "Your maidservant came here just to bring our lady's heart to you, and please accept this apology." Since then, I have reconciled with His Highness."
