Chapter 5 New Year's Eve Family Banquet
As soon as the 29th of the twelfth lunar month arrived, Ling Shuang waited outside Shen Zi's room with a group of maidservants.

"Miss, do you want your servants to come in and serve you?"

Not long after, a cold voice came, "Come in!"

Today is a family banquet in the palace, so naturally one has to get up earlier to enter the palace, this is Shen Zi's first time entering the palace since her rebirth, if one wants to come, the one who should come will always come.

Ling Shuang looked at the person in the mirror and asked, "What would Miss wear today? What are your requirements for makeup and hair?"

Shen Zi thought for a while, "Don't dress too ostentatiously, and don't be too plain, just be dignified with makeup and hair."

Shen Zi asked not to be ostentatious because she didn't want to make a move yet, and she didn't want to be pure, because today was a family banquet in the palace, so it's not good to be too "clean", but some people just do the opposite.

What Ling Shuang changed for Shen Zi was a purple dress with dark flowers and flowing clouds. It was matched with a light blue cloak on the outside. It was also the most popular bun among young ladies from aristocratic families. .

In response to Shen Zi's request, it also demonstrated the dignified etiquette of the young lady of the family.

While walking, the steps with the hairpin on her head swayed accordingly, revealing the agility and playfulness of a young girl in a trance.

After dressing up, Shen Zi got on the carriage to the palace, Shen's father and Shen's mother had already set off one step earlier.

It was snowing heavily in the palace, Shen Zi held up a green umbrella, and followed the guides to Fanghua Palace.

Who would have thought that she would enter the palace again.

Shen Zi raised her eyes, and the white snow fell on the branches of plum blossoms, like a poetic and picturesque scene. In her previous life, she had never seen such a beautiful scenery carefully.

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly saw a figure in front of her slowly walking towards Shen Zi.

I saw that person wearing a white brocade dress with dark flowers and a white cloak. The cloak was also trimmed with a circle of white snow fox fur, which made the skin more like creamy, light and elegant.

I have to say that with this snowy scene, it is indeed different from other girls.

She was holding a red plum blossom umbrella, and when she saw Shen Zi, she removed the umbrella cover, revealing a pair of eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and her tone was a bit teasing, "So it's Miss Shen, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come All right!"

Shen Zi clenched her fist tightly, her nails were deeply embedded in her flesh, at this moment only the sharp pain could keep her rational.

This person was none other than the person who had caused her the most --- Lu Li.

The person who sent her into the abyss because of Gu Jinghuan.

Shen Zi thought of her previous life, but her face did not change, she only said in a cold voice, "It may be a long time since I came to the palace, I don't know when Miss Lu entered the palace and became a maid? If so, according to the rules of the palace, Miss Lu, please lead the way!"

"lead the way?"

When Lu Li heard this, a smile appeared in the corner of her eyes, as if she had heard a big joke, she half covered her lips with her jade hand, and laughed wantonly.

"Shen Zi! Shen Zi! I'm afraid you've lost your mind because of the confinement last time? I haven't seen you for a few months, and you still haven't made any progress."

"Still, as always, conceited."

"You don't really think that you are still the original Shen Zi, who is full of stars?"

"The you now will only make Gu Xiaohou feel disgusted. Guess, if you don't have that marriage, will he still care about you?"

"You're just relying on the Shen family! An ignorant woman really thinks she's a phoenix, but she doesn't know that she's not even as good as an ant, and she's still acting condescendingly. It's really disgusting."

Inside Lu Lili hated Shen Zi extremely, nothing else, just because Shen Zi was Gu Jinghuan's unmarried wife.

Which woman would like her rival in love?
Plus Shen Zi, why should she?Just because of her good family background?The father is in the first class?How can such a pedantic woman deserve to be her competitor?

However, after traveling to such a dynasty, her father was not as good as Shen Zi's father, and she was born as a concubine, and Shen Zi, that face that she hated, made her jealous, why?Why, she looks so beautiful?
While talking, Lu Li approached Shen Zi step by step.

She stretched out her jade hand, pinched Shen Zi's chin, stared at her with a pair of eyes, as if she saw other women from it, with deep hatred.

"I have to say, you really have a good skin."

"It's a pity that it's not likable, but annoying."

"If you beg for mercy now and break off the engagement with Gu Jinghuan, I can see that you and I are both women, let you go, let your Shen family go."

Lu Li smiled brightly, his eyes and brows were filled with pride, as if he was waiting for Shen Zi to beg for mercy, kneel down and admit his mistake.

"cut!"

At this moment, Shen Zi spoke coldly.

"What are you cutting?"

"Snapped!!!"

Before Lu Li finished saying "cut what?", a loud slap landed on her face.

The sound was so loud that it reverberated endlessly, even the palace servants leading the way behind Shen Zi broke into a cold sweat from fright.

Lu Li's face was numb, and he recovered after a moment of astonishment.

"Shen Zi, you are courting death!"

The screaming sound scattered snowflakes all over the place.

Lu Li raised his hand backhand, and was about to hit him back.

But Shen Zi seemed to know that she had such a trick, and she grabbed Lu Li's wrist with quick eyes and quick hands. She stared fiercely into her eyes, her voice was flat and indifferent, and suppressed Lu Li with her own arrogance.

She said, "This slap is for His Majesty. There is no sacrifice in the palace, but you, as the daughter of an official, are showing off all over the palace in plain clothes. Are you expressing something? Are you dissatisfied with Your Majesty?" ?

Now I slap you lightly, if His Majesty sees you, Lord Lu and even the Lu family will also be implicated. "

Lu Li was taken aback when he heard this.

"How can it be so serious? You should stop bluffing people here, don't think that I don't understand the rules of the palace."

It's really not that serious, but Lu Li didn't know that His Majesty dislikes people wearing white clothes. This is still a secret matter in the palace, and she also heard Yongning mention it by accident.

Besides, with Lu Li's current status, he might not even be able to enter the main banquet hall, because of the rules in the palace, all officials below the third rank are in the outer hall for the New Year's Eve family banquet. Although it is to have fun with the people, the rules are always the rules.

How does she know this as a person who has traveled through time.

Lu Li didn't believe it at first, but when Shen Zi said it so solemnly, the determination in her eyes could not be questioned at all.

For a long time, even Lu Li was suspicious.

But the next moment.
"Snapped!"

A slap landed on the other half of Lu Li's face, with a stronger force and a clearer sound than before.

"Shen Zi."

Lu Li finally came to his senses, she actually followed Shen Zi's words, if there was something wrong with her outfit, her father would ask her to change it again when she left the house, instead of waiting for Shen Zi to face her right now. Make irresponsible remarks.

"you"
