Concubine's true colors

Chapter 344 The Hatred of the White Willow
Many days have passed since Concubine Hui was abolished, and in a blink of an eye today is the thirty day of New Year's Eve.

During this important festival, the royal family has always held a night banquet in the palace, and then everyone will observe the new year together.

And Xiao Jinxuan, who was supposed to go back to the Marshal's Mansion to celebrate the festival with her relatives, still stayed in the palace today.

After all, Xiao Jinxuan already has doubts about whether she is a member of the Xiao family in the handsome mansion.

Xiao Jinxuan, who didn't have much blood relationship with the people in the handsome mansion.

Therefore, on New Year's Eve when the family was reunited, there was a feeling that they didn't know how to face the members of the Xiao family.

In addition, Emperor Ming had ordered her to stay in the palace for the festival, and Xiangping also tried to persuade her to stay, so in the end Xiao Jinxuan stayed.

But now seeing that the sky was getting late, it was time for the palace banquet to be held soon.

So Xiao Jinxuan was following the concubines, sitting on the sedan chair with a copper stove in hand, rushing to the Jinhua Palace where the celebration was held.

And Xiangping, who was sitting next to Xiao Jinxuan in a double sedan, was sitting next to her. After looking at the other's cheek for a few times, he said in a low voice:
"Jinxuan is all for me. I see that your face is still a little red. Although the swelling has subsided now, when I think of how you hurt yourself in order to deal with Concubine Hui, I feel sorry for you." hold you."

After Xiao Jinxuan was brought back to Yanqing Palace by Concubine Hui that day, she was in a coma for a whole day due to the effect of the tranquilizing water, and she woke up at noon the next day.

Naturally, Concubine Liang recognized through the small porcelain bottle containing Anshen Water that it was indeed not Concubine Hui's, but the bottle that Xiao Jinxuan carried with her.

After asking Xiao Jinxuan in detail about the reason for doing so, Xiangping, who was also there at the time, heard that Xiao Jinxuan did all this just to vent her anger.

Apart from being moved to tears, Xiangping also really worried about Xiao Jinxuan for a long time.

Slightly touching her swollen cheeks, Xiao Jinxuan held Xiangping's hand, then said with a nonchalant smile:

"Speaking of which, although you and I are the same age, Xiangping is a few months younger than me, so I should take care of you. What's more, Concubine Hui's mother and daughter are very harmful. The root cause of your disease now is theirs. It was caused. If you don't repay this grievance for you, then I, Xiao Jinxuan, am still your best friend."

Seeing that Xiangping wanted to thank him again, after Xiao Jinxuan stopped the other party, she suddenly withdrew her smile, and then said with a warning:

"Because of the marriage marriage, the Daliang envoys have not left our Dazhou until now. If I guessed correctly, His Majesty will definitely mention the marriage marriage at this palace banquet. Then you must not say anything against it. If you are married, I have my own way to make you avoid this marriage successfully."

Since the incident of beating Mo Lingzhi, the person Xiangping trusts the most can be said to be Xiao Jinxuan.

Therefore, after hearing this, Xiangping didn't even ask a question, and he nodded and agreed unconditionally.

And while the two were talking, the Jinhua Palace had already arrived.

Before he walked in, Zhou Xianyu, who had come a step earlier, greeted him before he sat firmly in his seat.

Concubine Hui of Heyun Palace was abolished. After Xiao Jinxuan took the medicine and fell asleep, Concubine Liang sent someone to inform Zhou Xianyu.

But because of sending Zhou Xianrui off, Zhou Xianyu didn't return to the capital until midnight, but after learning of Xiao Jinxuan's accident, he didn't even care about rest, and rushed into the palace overnight.

It wasn't until Zhou Xianyu, who was guarding Xiao Jinxuan and woke up, that he didn't close his eyes all day and night, felt a little relieved to handle the official duties within his duties.

Therefore, Zhou Xianyu looked at Xiao Jinxuan carefully for a long time before and after he came close, and then said with a smile:

"It seems that the mother and concubine must have used good plasters for you in the past few days. The bruises on your face have disappeared. Next time, Xuan'er, you can't do such a thing that doesn't cherish yourself. If You really see that concubine Hui is an eyesore, I have hundreds of ways to make her disappear, why bother to hurt yourself."

Shaking her head with a slight smile, Xiao Jinxuan immediately said in a gentle and persuasive tone:

"Xianyu, I know that you hold great power, but you must know that the tree attracts the wind, and you don't know how many people are watching your every move. After all, Concubine Hui is a third-rank concubine, and she can use a little bit of bitter tricks to plot her into the cold palace. Actually speaking, I don't suffer at all. What's more, you know me, and I, Xiao Jinxuan, don't like to ask for help for things you can do by yourself, and I have a sense of proportion in my heart, so you don't have to worry too much about me. "

Looking helplessly at Xiao Jinxuan, Zhou Xianyu's eyes were full of tenderness, but he had to admit it helplessly.

The woman she likes is too good and smart, but it is actually quite a stressful thing.

But fortunately, Zhou Xianyu still has confidence in himself, if it were any other man with less confidence, he would probably be suppressed by Xiao Jinxuan.

But at this moment, a person suddenly came from the side, interrupting the unfinished conversation between Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu.

When Xiao Jinxuan looked up, she realized that the person who came was Bai Liu who was dressed in the royal concubine's costume.

"Jinxuan hasn't been out of the palace for the past few days, but I also heard that Miss Bai married into Prince Tai's mansion and became the side concubine of His Royal Highness, so Jinxuan should congratulate her."

Bai Liu, who had already approached, heard this, and immediately said hello to Zhou Xianyu Fuli, and then said with a smile:

"Sister Jinxuan is too polite, and her sister is humble, she was just raised as a side concubine, but I still appreciate her kindness, and it is very pleasant to hear my sister saying hi."

After saying this, Bai Liu looked at Zhou Xianyu, and then said softly:

"It is said that the seventh brother is an infatuated person. I have seen it today, but I have a few words to tell my sister Jinxuan. I wonder if the seventh brother can avoid it. After all, my sister is with me, and His Highness is still afraid of her. It won't work if you touch it."

Hearing this, Zhou Xianyu immediately slanted his eyes, glanced at Bai Liu's face, and then said with an evil smile:

"Side Concubine Bai, don't call me the seventh younger brother. Although you were carried into the palace by my second brother, you have always been able to afford me to be called the second sister-in-law, but there is only Princess Tai. As for Jinxuan and When you are together, I am not worried about where she bumps into, but this king is really worried that if someone has dirty hands and feet and is doing something poisonous and insidious, then it will be troublesome."

Zhou Xianyu had always been used to being in front of Emperor Ming, the ninth-five-year-old father, casually. He was just a white willow, and naturally he would not beat around the bush when he spoke.

Seeing Bai Liu whose face became extremely embarrassed because of Zhou Xianyu's taunts, Xiao Jinxuan immediately smiled silently, and then said:
"Xianyu, why don't you go back to your seat first, after all, the palace banquet is about to start, and I'm also very curious, what exactly Miss Bai has to say to me alone. As for things like poisoning, here But in the inner courtyard of the imperial palace, even if some people have such thoughts, they would never dare to act recklessly."

Seeing Zhou Xianyu, who was cold-eyed and sarcastically speaking to him just now, after hearing Xiao Jinxuan's words, he followed suit and left immediately as docile as a cat.

Immediately, even though Bai Liu is now the side concubine, she is inevitably jealous of Zhou Xianyu's consideration and accommodating towards Xiao Jinxuan, so she said sarcastically:
"Sister Jinxuan really has the ability. My mighty King of War is so obedient in front of my sister. This ability is something that no one else can learn."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan immediately looked at Bai Liu, and after staring at Bai Liu for a long time, she murmured:
"Really? Actually, compared to Concubine Bai, this princess is nothing. You are the one who can even fight against your biological mother in order to protect yourself. If I say I admire you, I should admire you." right."

In fact, ever since Wu's mother and daughter failed to assassinate Xiao Jinxuan many times, although they maintained politeness on the surface, they had long been incompatible with each other in their hearts.

But now Bai Liu is already a side concubine, so with this layer of support, she doesn't intend to maintain the harmony even if it is face.

Especially when Xiao Jinxuan mentioned Wu Shi's death, after all, she killed her own mother with her own hands, Bai Liu felt uneasy and fearful about this matter.

And once this person makes a mistake, he will inevitably like to make excuses for himself, and try his best to shift the responsibility to others.

Therefore, even though Bai Liu killed Wu shi that day to save her own life, she blamed all these faults on Xiao Jinxuan for peace of mind afterwards.

And she told herself over and over again that if it wasn't for dealing with Xiao Jinxuan, the old matriarch would not have played the game back then, and she and her mother would have no chance to make a move.

And if none of these things happened, there would be no scene where things were revealed, and she would not have to kill her mother herself.

Therefore, Bai Liu told himself that Wu Shi's death was not at all her fault, it was Xiao Jinxuan's pressing every step of the way, so she did it in order to protect herself.

Day and night, Bai Liu was freed from the fear and anxiety of killing her biological mother by repeating this hypnotic numbness day and night.

After confirming that Xiao Jinxuan was the murderer who forced Wu's death, Bai Liu felt that if she wanted to gain eternal peace of mind, the only way she could avenge her mother was by killing him, and then she could be completely relieved.

Therefore, looking at Xiao Jinxuan with dangerous eyes, Bai Liu showed an undisguised sneer, and then said softly and conceitedly:

"Xiao Jinxuan, since you can see everything thoroughly, then I don't need to beat around the bush. It's all because of your appearance, otherwise my mother would be fine. Now you don't expect that I, Bai Liu, became Prince Tai's side concubine. , now my status is not lower than your princess, let's wait and see in the future and see who can have the last laugh."

Marrying into the palace and becoming a side concubine may be a great blessing to others.

But Bai Liu came from a good background, even though she was a daughter of a concubine, she was the only daughter of Duke Hua.

Therefore, although the side concubine is good, she is a concubine after all. Since she was sensible, Bai Liu, who never thought that she would one day be a concubine, was not very happy about marrying into the Prince Tai's mansion.

But when Old Madam Bai died, although the Wu family became the culprit, Bai Dongyang, Duke of Hua, had no doubts about Bai Liu.

Therefore, Bai Liu was grounded afterwards, and only after Bai Dongyang found out everything, he would punish her again.

Just when Bai Liu was worried every day, Zhou Xiantai suddenly sent someone to propose marriage.

Thinking of becoming a side concubine, even if her father Hua Guogong didn't dare to do anything to her, Bai Liu had no choice but to marry into Prince Tai's mansion.

From Bai Liu's point of view, the person who ruined her life's happiness and was persecuted to the point where she had to be Zhou Xiantai's concubine was still Xiao Jinxuan.

After all, if the other party hadn't seen through her tricks time and time again, how could there have been such disturbances later.

Anyway, in Bai Liu's thinking, it was only natural for her to frame Xiao Jinxuan again and again, but the other party dared to resist and caused her to be hurt, this is an intolerable thing.

So when she married into the prince's mansion full of unhappiness, Bai Liu secretly told herself that she must also destroy Xiao Jinxuan's happiness and kill her, so that her hatred in her heart could be relieved.
