What is lost and regained is naturally worth celebrating.
However, the person who returned it was Xiao Shu, which seemed a bit strange. Jiang Xuening was not very accustomed to it. Fortunately, Xiao Shu did not intend to talk to her through this and returned the sachet before leaving.
So she also felt at ease and continued to watch Zhou Baoying play chess with Fang Miao.
This time I'm playing Go.
Fang Miao's move has already entered the long-term exam and is uncertain for a while.
Zhou Baoying looked bored, so she grabbed the peanuts next to her and peeled them. She also turned her head to look at Yao Xi and You Yue, curious and said, "Did the two sisters go to appreciate the plum blossoms too?"
Yao Xi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xiao Shu leave, but listening to Zhou Baoying's question, her heart couldn't help but tighten a bit. She forced a smile as if nothing had happened and said, "I went too, but I haven't been interested for long. I've been talking to the ladies of each palace."
Zhou Baoying let out an "oh".
She seemed to want to say something, but at that moment, Fang Miao let out a "snap" and her gaze immediately moved away. She clapped her hands and laughed loudly, "I knew Sister Fang Miao was coming down here! Watch me eat your half eyes!"
Fang Miao saw where her finger fell and immediately exclaimed anxiously, "You! How could you come down here? No, no, I haven't figured it out yet. I won't come down here!"
"No regrets, sister!"
Zhou Baoying finally won another game and didn't allow her to easily repent, so the two of them started playing on the board.
Yao Xicai went through some danger, feeling both mentally and mentally exhausted. He pretended to be fine and looked at the Flowing Water Pavilion for a while before claiming to be tired and walking out.
Upon seeing this, You Yue's gaze flickered and she followed suit.
When Jiang Xuehui came out of her own room, she happened to see her two coming back one in front of each other, and even greeted them lightly. However, perhaps it was because she had previously refuted them face-to-face, and their expressions didn't look very close, showing a strange coldness.
At this moment, she didn't care either.
When I returned to my room after dinner, I noticed a scratch on Jiang Xuening's sachet and asked, "What's wrong with this sachet?"
Jiang Xuening lowered her head and said, "It was probably accidentally dropped and picked up by Xiao Shu. When she returned it to me, it was already like this. It must have been scratched somewhere."
Fragrant sachets and sweatshirts are all personal belongings of my daughter.
She was used to wandering around outside and didn't pay much attention to these details, but Jiang Xuehui was raised in the mansion behind the high gate. Upon hearing this, she frowned lightly and said, "When did you lose it?"
Jiang Xuening's relationship with her was not close at first, and unless necessary, both of them would not speak.
Now Jiang Xuehui took the initiative to ask.
===Kunning Section 107===
After careful consideration, Jiang Xuening knew what she was worried about. After all, if this private property were to be taken into someone's hands in the palace, it would bring up some sexual matters and fall into the eyes of those with intentions, which would be enough to cause a big deal.
She didn't reply either, just untied the sachet and opened it directly to take a look.
There are still dried flowers and fragrant slices inside, but there is nothing else.
However, the originally delicate Du Ruofang's breath had a faint and refreshing cold fragrance
Extremely faint, but still able to smell.
Jiang Xuening's heart suddenly trembled slightly, and what came to mind was the plum blossom feast she had not attended in the palace today. From going out this morning to having dinner at night, the places she passed by were only from Yangzhi Zhai to Fengchen Hall, as well as the palace roads in the middle. There was absolutely no plum blossom in the middle, let alone the earliest blooming tiger hoof plum
Unless Xiao Shu uses plum fragrance.
But as far as she knows, it's not.
Jiang Xuehui just wanted to ask when she lost it, fearing that someone in the palace would use this sachet as an article. However, she didn't expect Jiang Xuening to frown after opening the sachet and smelling it briefly.
She couldn't help but worry, "Isn't that right?"
Jiang Xuening's eyes were covered with a layer of darkness, and she only looked towards the outside of the Yangzhi Studio and the palace path outside the door without answering. She tied her sachet and saw no one around her, so she went straight down the stairs and carefully watched the way.
At the entrance of Deyang Zhizhai, she suddenly thought of something and stopped her steps.
The palace gates in the palace are all made of wood.
At this moment, the two doors were not yet closed, and round copper rings hung on both sides. But on the left side of the door, which was about the same height as the human waist, there was a wooden thorn protruding, and a few extremely thin strands of moonlight silk hung on it.
Upon closer inspection, Jiang Xuening noticed.
She gently lifted her finger to remove the strands of silk, and then spread out the sachet in her hand. The scratch on the sachet was still fresh, and the moonlight background was exactly the same as the thin silk.
Looking back again, she did indeed open this door and look back when she returned from the Fengchen Hall to the Zhizhai.
I think it should have been lost at that time.
At that time, I met You Yue and Yao Xi, but I didn't see anyone else. But in the end, this sachet was picked up by Xiao Shu, and there were also a few strands of plum fragrance on top
Jiang Xuehui knew something was wrong from her posture.
But Jiang Xuening seemed to know what she was trying to say and just said, "You don't need to worry."
After finishing speaking, he took the sachet back to the room.
After experiencing the previous incident where Yang Zhizhai was raided and framed, Jiang Xuening has become much more cautious. After all, she is no longer the Empress of the previous life, and even a little conspiracy from others can put her in danger.
Is there anything suspicious about this matter? Let's talk about it for now.
What's important is, if there's something fishy, what will be involved?
The room lit a lamp, and the sachet and a strand of thread were placed under the lamp. Jiang Xuening sat in front of the table and looked at it for a long time.
It's already late at night.
Quickly, the laughter and commotion on the other side of the Flowing Water Pavilion subsided, followed by the sound of Fang Miao bidding farewell to Zhou Baoying. It was estimated that the game had finally been completed, and it was agreed to continue the battle tomorrow.
At this moment, Jiang Xuening thought to herself: instead of thinking and doubting here, it would be better to directly find Xiao Shu tomorrow and take the initiative to ask. After all, things that have not been done before are things that have not been done before. If others want to frame and frame someone, it is inevitable that there will be imperfections and imperfections, which will inevitably reveal loopholes and be discovered by others.
Moreover, Xiao Shu is really not confused.
As soon as she thought it over, she decided to wash up and rest.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I got up, there was a knocking on the door outside.
"Knocking."
Someone gently knocked on her door, and then came Zhou Baoying's soft and sticky voice: "Sister Ning, have you slept? I've finished the pastries in my room. Do you still have any here?"
Jiang Xuening was momentarily stunned.
Whether in the previous or present life, her intersection with Zhou Baoying is not deep. I vaguely remember that the girl later married the Prince of Yanping, and despite everything, she spent her days studying food and drink, but was quite carefree and carefree like an ordinary person.
Are you still looking for food in the middle of the night?
She stepped forward and opened the door, saying, "What else can I get you?"
Zhou Baoying had just returned from playing chess with Fang Miao and stood outside the door with some shyness, as if it was embarrassing to ask for someone to eat. When she saw Jiang Xuening open the door for her, she smiled and took a step inside, saying, "Thank you, Sister Ning."
The pastries in the palace are given as usual.
Zhou Baoying is delicious and never listens. It's common for her to finish the pastries in her room.
Jiang Xuening, on the other hand, is completely opposite.
After entering the palace, I ate very little and was not very satisfied with the current chefs in the palace.
She put her few plates of pastries into the food box and said, "I don't like them either, why don't I give them all to you?"
Zhou Baoying bit her lip and said, "Ah, that's not very good, is it..."
Although he said so, his hand involuntarily reached out towards the food box handed over by Jiang Xuening, tightly gripping it. His eyes curved like crescent moon, and he was so happy that they frothed.
All the food given is good people.
So when talking to Jiang Xuening, she poured out a basket of good words and said, "I knew Sister Ning was good-looking and kind-hearted, and she hurt me very much! I saw the sachet that Sister Xiao picked up for you today, but at that time I was standing on the porch, while Sister Yao Xi and Sister You Yue were at the door. They had already picked it up first, and I thought they would return it to you, so I didn't go back.". When they returned, they didn't mention giving you the sachet. I was puzzled for a moment, but fortunately, Sister Xiao took it out. "Really, if only I could pick it up, otherwise I wouldn't be wasting my sister's pastry now..."
Two eyebrows locked together, with a slightly worried little expression.
She speaks soft and sticky, but her pace is not very slow, like pouring beans, with a built-in rhythm.
A few words in the past almost made people unable to react.
When Jiang Xuening realized what she had said, she suddenly lifted her head to look at her. She was already slightly stunned and her heart was greatly shaken!
Zhou Baoying seemed completely unaware of this, clutching the food box in both hands with a somewhat distressed expression. She gritted her teeth as if she had made up her mind and said to Jiang Xuening, "Alright! This time I took my sister's cake, and the next time the palace people bring it, I will divide my portion in half and give it to her without any remorse!"
Jiang Xuening: "..."
Zhou Baoying assumed that she had agreed and said, "That's settled! Thank you, sister. I'll just go back?"
Jiang Xuening gave a faint smile and said, "Go back and rest earlier."
Zhou Baoying jumped out of the door again and waved at Jiang Xuening, saying, "Sister, take a break earlier!"
After finishing speaking, he joyfully carried the food box to his room. Halfway through, he couldn't help but lift the lid of the box and took a piece of almond cake from inside and stuffed it into his mouth, as if he was extremely greedy.
Jiang Xuening watched her figure disappear at the corner of the corridor, then lowered her gaze and slowly closed the door.
My emotions churned steeply.
Sure enough, it's Yao Xi and You Yue
However, she had already doubted this before, so it was not surprising when she heard it from Zhou Baoying. To her surprise, Zhou Baoying sneaked over to talk to her.
It may seem unintentional, but if she had not been aware of the mystery of this matter before, these words were enough to awaken her and make her wary.
This little girl
Jiang Xuening couldn't help but smile. Although she likes to eat and drink, she is a chess enthusiast who can kill Fang Miao without leaving a trace on the chessboard. She is not as foolish as she appears. This cleverness is lacking in most people.
*
The next morning, Jiang Xuening woke up and went to attend classes at the Fengchen Hall, looking as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Shu also looks ordinary.
It seems that Yao Xi didn't sleep well, feeling a bit lethargic and not very energetic.
Chen Shuyi also joked with her, "This little girl looks haggard. What did she think about at night? Oh, I forgot. We, Miss Yao Xi, are different. We are people who have already made plans for marriage, so of course we need to think more."
If she had said so before, Yao Xi would have blushed with embarrassment.
Next, there will be a lively and lively atmosphere among the people.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing her words, Yao Xi's face suddenly changed, even becoming very embarrassed. She looked up at Chen Shuyi with a hint of anger.
Chen Shuyi immediately realized.
Her smile paused and she paused for a moment before saying, "Why, isn't it that you're not getting married to Zhang Zhe?"
Everyone in the hall was aware of her marriage with Zhang Zhe. At first, they knew she was going to withdraw, but later for some reason they didn't. After meeting Zhang Zhe unexpectedly at the Cining Palace, they seemed to be very satisfied with her.
A talented man and a beautiful woman may not be a perfect match, but if the woman doesn't complain, they can still become a good couple.
According to common sense, this marriage is naturally settled.
Even if there was a letter from Zhang Zhe voluntarily withdrawing from the marriage, everyone didn't think it was a problem.
Everyone, including Xiao Shu, turned their gaze towards Yao Xi.
Yao Xi's fingers on the table clenched tightly.
She only felt that there was malicious exploration and scrutiny hidden in these curious gazes, and even a faint anticipation waiting to see the good play. She had already read the letter that Zhang Zhe firmly wanted to withdraw from the marriage, and was also scolded by her father for making sarcastic remarks in the Fengchen Palace!
I hate it when I think about it.
What I hate even more is that Zhang Zhe dared to step back from his own kiss!
Where will she save face from such a wealthy lady in the future?
At this moment, the concerned gaze of everyone not only did not alleviate the embarrassment in her heart, but also intensified the anger in her heart.
But she would never declare such a thing to her mouth.
Which girl is willing to honestly say that she has been divorced?
Yao Xi gritted her teeth and smiled politely at Chen Shuyi, saying, "That Zhang Zhe doesn't know what to do. He comes from a small family, and even if he has a good appearance, he looks shabby. Besides, he has been calculated and has a unique destiny. So after thinking about it, let's forget it."
Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Xuening, however, had personally heard of Zhang Zhe's proposal to voluntarily withdraw from the marriage. At this moment, what Yao Xi said was as if she had voluntarily withdrawn from Zhang Zhe's marriage, and her mouth even said that Zhang Zhe was a "celestial evil solitary star destiny"!
What is the difference between this and what she discussed with You Yue that day?
Her face cooled slightly.
Yao Xi deliberately gave her a provocative glance and said with some meaning, "However, I don't like people who come from small families and backgrounds. So even if I withdraw, Zhang Zhe may be able to find a good one. Although he may not be able to compare with me, he can't say that the human king is interested in mung beans."
Others were all at a loss.
Only Jiang Xuening knew that these words were insulting herself, causing her chest to flutter for a moment. She wanted to have a fit, but the other party didn't name her. If she jumped out, it seemed like she really had some unspeakable relationship with Zhang Zhe, and she fell in love with him.
At this moment, the teacher who was attending class arrived, and she forcefully lowered the pressure of fire in her chest.
But the more pressure, the more intense this anger actually becomes.
Today, while studying books and etiquette, her complexion didn't improve throughout the whole process.
===Kunning Section 108===
At first glance, the gentlemen in the class thought that they had taught her wrong. After learning that Jiang Xuening had forced two gentlemen to pass by, they couldn't help but tremble, afraid that the next one to suffer would be themselves, so they didn't come to trouble her.
After class, Jiang Xuening was about to leave the hall, and Yao Xi happened to come up.
She doesn't want to, and Yao Xi doesn't want to either.
The two of them squeezed together.
Jiang Xuening's temper rose, and with a frown, she directly pushed her and said without hesitation, "What are you grabbing when I walk ahead? Are you in a hurry to get reincarnated?"
Yao Xi was also asked about her marriage by Chen Shuyi today, and remembered the hatred that Zhang Zhe had experienced when she withdrew from the marriage. With suspicion, she always felt that this matter had something to do with Jiang Xuening, so she unconsciously wanted to go against her and refused to compromise, but forgot about Jiang Xuening's stubborn nature.
Pushed by her, she almost stumbled and fell!
The gentlemen in the hall have not even left yet, and the palace people stand on the side. Seeing this scene, they are simply stunned. They cannot believe that someone's temper is so hot, and they will erupt in front of everyone!
Even Yao Xi himself didn't expect it.
She was helped by someone before standing still, but when she realized it, she became furious and said, "Jiang Xuening, what do you mean?"
Jiang Xuening sneered, "I want to mess with your intentions."
Shen Zhiyi didn't even leave so fast, she was still behind at the moment. She didn't know what kind of feud they had before, and she was stunned by the scene.
Others quietly scrutinized her expression.
Yao Xi wanted to compete with Jiang Xuening, but when she turned around and glanced at Shen Zhiyi, who was paying attention to the progress of the matter, she withdrew her finger pointing at Jiang Xuening with extreme fear and said with hatred, "If you don't be a thief, you don't feel guilty. Of course, those who secretly act like villains will become angry and ashamed."
Jiang Xuening sneered lightly, "There's no need to criticize others. I advise you to be more restrained. If someone resigns, just be obedient and stick to your tail. After all, fate is good to gather and disperse, and others won't make a fuss about it everywhere. But if you want to save face and refuse to make others feel better, then there are 11000 ways for that person to make you feel worse. If you dare to go out and talk nonsense, I dare to make everyone in the capital know what you did before being expelled!"
Being expelled by someone!
Is Yao Xi actually the one who was expelled?
Isn't it true that Zhang Zhe had confidently stated earlier that he withdrew from the marriage in order not to implicate her? As long as she refused, this marriage would definitely be completed?
Everyone was stunned when they heard Jiang Xuening's words.
Looking at Yao Xi again, his gaze suddenly became somewhat subtle, sympathetic, and difficult to express.
Yao Xi had no idea that Jiang Xuening would speak so rudely in front of everyone and be looked at by everyone. Her face was green and red, and she trembled with anger.
Tears flowed down in a flurry.
After all, the girl's family loves face, and being slapped in front of her is certainly extremely unfair.
Jiang Xuening finally vented her anger and didn't even bother to look at her again. With a flick of her sleeve, she walked straight towards the side hall.
Anyway, she has a domineering nature, and others can say whatever they like.
She's just someone who always puts her words into practice and keeps her promises!
If Yao Xiruo dares to do the same kind of nonsense as in the previous life, slandering and suppressing Zhang Zhe, she will give up this life and not leave the capital to stir up trouble in this Shura field. She will also fight to the end with her and make her pay the price!
*
The warm atmosphere in the side hall ignited the earth dragon in advance, and even the water for brewing tea was placed on the stove in advance.
Xie Wei arrived early in the morning.
On the edge of a small food box, a plate of peach cake was placed at the corner of the tea table, but he looked at the light green tea soup in front of him, a bit distracted.
Jiang Xuening pushed the door in and turned his head to see it.
But compared to before, his face was frozen and cold, as if he had a grudge against someone.
Xie Wei raised his eyebrows gently.
He wanted to ask again: Who recruited you again?
But when I thought about this, I asked yesterday and didn't speak up.
Jiang Xuening, however, felt his anger was strong. He walked over and bowed to Xie Wei first. When he stood up, he saw that he was looking at his expression, and knew that his anger and joy were on his face. He was afraid that Xie Wei would misunderstand, so he said, "I had a fight with a slut just now, sir. Don't blame me."
Xie Wei: "..."
These two words are really infuriating, Ning Er never said such things in the past. In other words, if you can be considered a "slut", the situation must be very serious.
He pondered over her intense anger, which didn't seem like someone who could play the piano calmly. He pointed across from him and said, "Sit down."
Jiang Xuening walked over with a heavy head and sat down.
Xie Wei saw her face full of bitterness and hatred, so he sat down and didn't move. He lowered his eyes, took a sip of tea, and said softly, "Wait for me to pour you tea, won't you?"
The tea was brewed before Jiang Xuening arrived and poured into the tea sea.
Jiang Xuening only then realized.
In the past, it was the etiquette of tea brewers for Xie Wei to pour tea for her, and she only drank it twice without paying attention. When he did this, the back of her head cooled a bit. She quickly picked up the tea cup and saw Xie Wei put it down. She obediently refilled it for him first, and then turned around to pour herself a cup.
She didn't dare to speak either, so she picked up a tea cup with both hands and took a sip.
Today is Monkey King.
Obviously, it is also a tribute from the palace, with a smooth entrance and sweet cheeks. After drinking it, you can still smell a hint of sweet fragrance
Hmm, sweet and refreshing?
Is this the taste of Monkey Kui?
Jiang Xuening was momentarily stunned, her eyes twitched, and she saw the plate of peach cake next to her.
It's the same as yesterday.
She was a bit disgusted by the taste and didn't want to taste it again.
After taking a glance, she turned her gaze back and continued drinking tea.
Xie Weidao said, "In the palace, you act with restraint, but you make enemies everywhere. Why do you argue with others?"
Jiang Xuening muttered, "I also know that my temperament is not suitable for staying in the palace, but you haven't given me a chance to choose."
Speaking of that sweet fragrance, it drifted back.
She couldn't help but turn around and take a look at the plate of peach cake. She said, "Although it's so unpleasant, the aroma is so tempting. What's going on?"? The cook in the palace is just flashy and mischievous! To be a person, one must have backbone and never reach out! Otherwise, if I can't finish eating in a while, I'll have to force myself in front of Xie Wei, it's just too miserable!
Xie Wei raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you blaming me?"
Jiang Xuening was absent-minded and couldn't remember what she had just said. She instinctively "ah" and immediately said, "I dare not dare not."
Xie Wei's gaze shifted towards the peach cake.
He had noticed that Jiang Xuening looked at it more than once and said, "If you want to eat, take it. No one is restricting you."
"No, no, no, I'm not hungry."
Jiang Xuening immediately shook her head and refused.
Xie Wei: "..."
