Concubine's true colors

Chapter 298
Because of the protection of Princess Cheng'an, Xiao Jinxuan spent a day in the Duke's mansion safely and without hindrance.

Seeing that after today, she will go to the palace to attend the state banquet tomorrow, Xiao Jinxuan knows in her heart that as long as she gets through this last hurdle, when she leaves the gate of the Duke's mansion, the Bai family will never have the chance to attack her up.

But it's also because today is the last favorable opportunity for the Bai family to secretly harm each other.

So Xiao Jinxuan had even guessed in her heart that today would definitely not be peaceful, and troubles would come one after another in the near future.

Just when Xiao Jinxuan was thinking secretly in her heart, what method would Bai Liu find on this last day to assassinate her.

All of a sudden, she just felt that the hair on her head was pulled violently.

Immediately, she wrinkled Xiumei slightly in pain, and then through the vanity mirror, she looked helplessly at Zhuxin who was combing her hair, and asked with concern:

"Zhu Xin, if you are tired, go to the rest meeting quickly. Last night you guarded me all night without closing your eyes. If this continues, I have not been killed by the Bai family. You will be unable to bear it and fall ill first." .”

Zhu Xin, who was getting up in the morning to dress Xiao Jinxuan, was holding her fist, knocking on her head, shaking her head angrily and said:

"Miss, I hurt you just now. It's all because of the bad servants. I just didn't sleep all night. I even combed my hair this morning. My head is a little heavy. But miss, you can't be careless. In this duke's mansion, except Cheng'an Princess, I see that everyone has bad thoughts about you. The servants have to keep you safe, not to mention not sleeping for one night, even if not sleeping for ten nights. chance to hurt you."

Seeing that Zhu Xin actually used the method of knocking on the head to refresh herself, Xiao Jinxuan immediately smiled helplessly.

Then he turned around, took the wooden comb from the opponent's hand, combed his hair and said:
"This is the Duke's Mansion. It is indeed possible for the Bai family to attack me secretly, but with their courage, no one dares to deal with me blatantly. Moreover, this is the courtyard of Princess Cheng'an. As long as I don't walk out of the courtyard here, no one will You won't be too ambitious and dare to break in to embarrass me, so go to sleep quickly, I will take you to the palace for a banquet tomorrow, if Zhu Xinruo then you will still be like this With a sluggish look, it is bound to be prone to mistakes at the banquet, and it will be troublesome at that time."

After being coaxed and frightened by Xiao Jinxuan so much, Zhu Xin nodded, obediently went down and prepared to catch up on sleep, but when she was about to leave the room, she still said worriedly:
"Miss, even if what you said is right, but if that Miss Bai Liu ran over with the excuse of asking for safety, could Princess Cheng An really stop her from seeing her? Miss, I will definitely target you again, every time I think of these things, the slaves don't dare to rest at all."

By Xiao Jinxuan's side, Wenxin is good at handling all kinds of chores, and is already the veritable number one butler of the Forsythia Courtyard, and her position is extremely important.

As for Chiling who can do martial arts and Baishu who can do medicine, Zhu Xin is the only one. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she is useless.

But wherever Xiao Jinxuan went, Zhu Xin was always with her the longest, because although she had no special expertise, she was the most loyal and loyal, and she was also the first one to follow her.

With a strong heart, Xiao Jinxuan not only uses it smoothly, but also feels extremely stable in her heart. Although they are called masters and servants, they are actually no different from relatives.

So seeing Zhu Xin, she stood at the door and was still talking non-stop, Xiao Jinxuan hurriedly stood up, and forced the other party to rest.

After finishing all this, seeing that the dressing was done, she wanted to find a book to read.

But at this moment, Aunt Biyun came to look for her with a smile on her face. After seeing the ceremony, the other party couldn't wait to say:
"Miss Jinxuan, you are really the lucky star of my princess. Not only did the princess smile a lot when you came, but now Master Hang also came to the courtyard in person to apologize to you. Taking this opportunity, Her Highness the Princess may be able to get along with you." Eldest young master had a good talk, but after all, young master Hang came here specially for you, so the young lady also went with the servants, and went to the princess's main room to gather together."

Xiao Jinxuan, who was holding the "Lushi Chunqiu" in her forehand, hadn't opened it to take a look, was taken aback when she heard this, and then sneered inwardly.

After all, although she didn't have much contact with Bai Hang, Xiao Jinxuan's eyes have been trained to be extremely vicious.

According to her observation, this young master of the Bai family is not the kind of character who is willing to bow his head and even come to someone's door to apologize.

Especially after the long talk with Princess Cheng An that night, Xiao Jinxuan knew Bai Hang even more, because she was extremely estranged from this biological mother, and almost never entered the other's courtyard except for formal occasions.

And now, Bai Hang came here to apologize so solemnly after so long for the few words he said the day before yesterday.

And for this reason, he entered Princess Cheng'an's courtyard. No matter how you look at it, it is too unreasonable.

Therefore, Xiao Jinxuan's face remained calm, but she smiled lightly, and asked unintentionally:
"Aunt Biyun, now that Jinxuan is a guest of your mansion, how can she afford to have Master Hang come to apologize to me in person? It was just a few jokes at the beginning, and I didn't take it to heart at all. And I don't know that now, Master Hang But if you came here by yourself, it would be better for Jinxuan to go out later, or ask Her Royal Highness to catch up with her alone."

Upon hearing this, Biyun's eyes flashed with disgust, and then she snorted and said:
"No need, Ms. Jinxuan, although you have good intentions and want to leave time for our princess to be alone with Master Hang to get close to the past. But Miss Bai Liu also came this time, and she followed the young master inseparably. This Wu The mother and daughter are very skilled, how could they call Master Hang at ease and get too close to the princess alone, otherwise their vicious thoughts all these years will be in vain."

Because she was too angry, Aunt Biyun talked too much, but when she finished speaking, she felt that she had slipped her tongue.

Immediately, a look of annoyance flashed across his face, and then he made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Jinxuan, but stopped talking casually.

But this time, Biyun kept her mouth shut, and Xiao Jinxuan stopped asking, after all, what she wanted to know was that the other party had already leaked it to her.

Originally, she thought it was strange that Bai Hang came to look for her, but now that she heard that Bai Liu was following her, she couldn't help but be sure that the Bai family wanted to seize the last chance to attack her again.

Suddenly remembering Zhuxin's words just now, Xiao Jinxuan felt dumbfounded.

After all, Zhu Xin was like a crow's mouth, and he said that the Bai family would take the initiative to come to see him. It took a lot of effort, and it actually came true.

But since Biyun came to invite her in person, it means that it was Princess Cheng An who invited her over, so Xiao Jinxuan naturally had no reason to shirk, and immediately left the room with the other party, and after a little effort, stepped on the snowy road , Came to the main house.

As soon as she entered the room, before Xiao Jinxuan took off the cloak she was wearing to keep out the cold, she heard Princess Cheng An say to her in a rather joyful voice:
"Jinxuan, you're here, hurry up and taste the pastry that Hang'er brought. Although this princess has eaten countless rare pastries, she thinks this one is really delicious. Speaking of which, this princess is really in your favor. If Hang'er hadn't brought some snacks to apologize to you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had the good fortune."

At this time, Bai Hang who was sitting beside him, upon hearing this, an impatient look flashed across his face, and then he muttered in a low voice:

"I've never eaten such an ordinary pastry, and I'm ashamed to say that I'm a princess, but it's really easy to pass, a box of pastries can be successful like this, I really have no experience."

The voice of Bai Hang's words was indeed not loud, but he told all the people present to hear them clearly, and immediately saw Princess Cheng'an's smiling eyes, and a trace of sadness flashed across them.

But the next moment, as if she had never heard of it, she continued to eat the snack with a smile on her face, as if she didn't take Bai Hang's harsh words to heart.

As for Xiao Jinxuan, who had given birth to children in her previous life, she knew in her heart that although Princess An was innocent on the surface, she might have already been injured all over her body.

After all, being disliked by her own child and making sarcastic remarks, Xiao Jinxuan felt extremely sad for Cheng An just thinking about this feeling.

Xiao Jinxuan, who also raised her own child in her previous life, really couldn't bear to watch this meeting. Immediately after she handed the cloak to the maidservant, she said with a half-smile:

"Every time Mr. Hang comes back from the mansion, he will bring all kinds of cakes for Mrs. Wu. Although Princess Cheng An came out of the palace, she has stayed in the mansion for more than 20 years. For these new snacks, It’s reasonable to love him so much. And if Mr. Hang can treat everyone equally and buy pastries every time to honor his mother, it must be too rare for His Majesty the Princess to taste the pastries. Very happy."

In Xiao Jinxuan's words, the meaning of reprimanding Bai Hang for being unfilial was extremely obvious. Immediately seeing the young master of the Bai family, his expression immediately became a little unnatural.

But before Xiao Jinxuan could continue, Cheng An at the side hurriedly stopped her and said:
"Jinxuan, come and sit here. In fact, it's not that Hang'er doesn't care about me as a mother. It's because I always stay in the Buddhist hall. It's reasonable for him to ignore me occasionally. Everyone Don't focus on talking, you can also have a snack."

She reached out to take Princess Cheng'an and handed her the pastry. Although Xiao Jinxuan took it, she didn't eat it right away.

Instead, after a smile, he handed it to Bai Liu, and said very politely:
"Sister Bailiu is quite quiet today. Jinxuan has been here for so long, and I haven't seen you say a word. In this case, sister, don't be idle. Your Royal Highness is full of praise for the pastry princess. Why don't you come first?" How about a piece of it."
