Xie Yuanting's complexion suddenly turned red and white, changing between "being annoyed and angry" and "being extremely angry".
A strange light flashed in Sheng Xuan's eyes, and he took a deep look at the girl who choked Xie Yuanting speechlessly while talking and laughing.
To describe it as a girl is actually a bit far-fetched.
The age of ten is the delicate age between a girl and a young girl.
Her face is delicate and beautiful, but her figure is thin and has not yet grown. Her slender waist is not enough to be held in a hand. It is like a delicate bud on a branch that can be pinched off with a little force...
Sheng Xuan suppressed the sudden surge of ulterior desires and smiled at Xie Mingxi: "Cousin Mingxi's words are quite interesting."
Xie Mingxi felt faintly sick in her stomach, and with a calm expression on her face, she smiled faintly and stepped into the Princess's Mansion.
Behind her, there was always a pair of eyes staring at her figure.
Like a greedy and ferocious hungry wolf, staring closely at its prey.
…
Compared to Xie's Mansion, Princess Yongning's Mansion is at least three times larger.
The Prince of Huainan had many sons and heirs were abundant, but he only had one daughter, Princess Yongning. When Princess Yongning got married, she was very beautiful and enviable.
This princess's mansion was also built on a site selected by the King of Huainan himself. It has pavilions, carved railings and painted buildings, and luxury can be seen everywhere.
It was the first time that Yufu and Yudu entered the mansion. Everyone's eyes were wide open, and they were overwhelmed with wonder.
After a moment, Congyu realized what he was doing and quickly tugged on Fuyu's sleeve.
Don't embarrass the lady.
Fuyu immediately looked away without squinting.
Naturally, the little actions of the two people could not be hidden from Xie Mingxi. The hatred and resentment caused by meeting Sheng Xuan again slowly dissipated, and their steps became brisk.
What should you do if you meet your enemy again?
Of course let him die again!
Let him die earlier and more miserably!
Sheng Jinyue and Xie Yunxi entered the inner hall early, and after bowing, they each snuggled next to Princess Yongning.
The cold-faced and cold-hearted Princess Yongning was now smiling and amiable. She was kind and gentle to Sheng Jinyue, even better than she was to her own daughter: "Jinyue, you are going to Kao Lianchi Academy this year! Have you ever signed up?
?”
Sheng Jinyue responded with a smile: "I have already signed up."
Princess Yongning said with a smile: "Since you want to be admitted to the academy, you have to prepare well. This year, there is also the Sixth Princess who will enter the Lotus Pond Academy together. If you and Yun Niang can pass the exam together, you will be classmates with the Sixth Princess."
Xie Mingxi, who had just stepped across the threshold, felt a quiet movement in her heart when she heard the name of the Sixth Princess.
…
Today, Emperor Jianwen only favors Empress Yu.
However, Empress Yu only gave birth to one daughter, and she had no more children for several years.
Propagation of heirs is the most important thing in the Tian family, so there were concubines and princes in Emperor Jianwen's harem one after another.
Emperor Jianwen was most fond of his eldest daughter, and gave her the title Princess Changping. He also gave the two fertile counties as fiefdoms, with the same rights as the princes. The eldest prince, who was originally the eldest, also became the second prince under the instruction of Emperor Jianwen.
Prince.
Sorting men and women together according to age has also become popular in the capital.
Emperor Jianwen had seven sons and two daughters.
Among them, the sixth princess and the seventh prince were twins, a dragon and a phoenix. The presence of a dragon and a phoenix was regarded as auspicious. Emperor Jianwen loved these twins very much. In addition to the eldest princess, even the third and fourth princes, who had always been favored, were also outshone.
.
Mei Cairen, who was of low status, was named Mei Fei because of her meritorious service in childbearing, and was ranked as one of the four concubines.
It is a pity that the seventh prince was not brought up and he accidentally fell into the water and died when he was eight years old.
The death of the Seventh Prince was a huge blow to Concubine Mei, who fell ill. The young Sixth Princess also suddenly changed her temperament overnight, became gloomy and silent, never showed her face again, and even refused to speak.
Emperor Jianwen felt pity for his young daughter, so he negotiated with Empress Yu to let her study in Lianchi Academy. She would study with girls of the same age, have more playmates of the same age, and her temperament would be more lively.
Queen Yu has no reason to disagree.
In the previous life, the Sixth Princess entered the Lotus Pond Academy in this year.
There is a rule in Lianchi Academy that when you enter the academy to study, you can only bring one person with you to serve with the pen and ink. It is similar to a book boy accompanying you when reading. Xie Yunxi is so stupid that Princess Yongning does not dare to let Xie Yunxi enter the academy alone.
Princess Yongning promised to marry Sheng Jinyue for Xie Yuanting, and Aunt Ding burst into tears and begged. She became Xie Yunxi's personal companion and entered the Lotus Pond Academy together.
She is said to be a reading companion, but the work she does is no different from that of a maid.
Most of the people who studied in Lianchi Academy were noble ladies from Daqi. They would never take her as a mere concubine of the Xie Mansion under their eyes. The maids also knew that she was not the same kind, and they rarely took the initiative to talk. She was invisibly isolated and neglected, and in her heart
When I feel sad, I will go alone to the bamboo forest and cry secretly.
Unexpectedly, I met the sixth princess who was also depressed in the bamboo forest.
The Sixth Princess sat with her back to her and turned her head suddenly when she heard the footsteps.
There were tears in his eyes, but his eyes were wary and cold.
She was startled and was about to kneel down to apologize. After the sixth princess saw her face clearly, her expression suddenly softened a bit, she nodded slightly at her and motioned for her to sit down.
She sat down timidly.
From beginning to end, the Sixth Princess did not speak to her.
Just sit facing each other in silence all afternoon.
After that, she and the Sixth Princess seemed to have a tacit understanding. Every half a month, they would sit in the bamboo pavilion. Occasionally they would exchange a few words, but most of the time, they would say nothing and just accompany each other.
For her who was young and lonely, this was a rare playmate of the same age. However, this friend's status was too noble, so it was not convenient for her to get too close, lest she would be known as clinging to her.
Although she didn't have much contact with the Sixth Princess, she eventually fell into the eyes of interested people.
While everyone was surprised, their attitude toward her gradually became gentler. Even Xie Yunxi, because of the Sixth Princess's face, did not dare to bully her too much.
Three years later, Mei Fei, who had been lingering on her sick bed all year round, passed away.
The 14-year-old Sixth Princess also fell seriously ill. Before she could appreciate the beauty of the world, she died of illness and died of regret.
…
For her when she was young, the Sixth Princess was her only friend.
The death of the sixth princess really made her sad for a long time.
A few years later, she took charge of the palace and ordered people to renovate Fuyue Palace. When she had nothing to do, she would go and sit for a while.
The years are long and time flies. In the blink of an eye, decades have passed. Apart from her, I am afraid no one will remember that gloomy and silent girl.
At this time, she suddenly heard the name of the Sixth Princess, and she felt a little enlightened, but more importantly, she felt happy and happy that she was about to reunite with her old friend.
She is no longer the meek, cowardly and useless Miss Xie San.
In this life, she will do her best to save the life of the sixth princess.
"Mother!" Xie Yunxi glanced at Xie Mingxi's figure and immediately shouted: "Third sister is already here! You have to make the decision for cousin Jinyue and me! Give Third Sister a good scolding!"
Princess Yongning's eyes flashed.
On any other day, she would have shown the majesty of her aunt and reprimanded Xie Mingxi severely. However, the exams at Lianchi Academy were approaching, so it was not advisable to press too hard, lest Xie Mingxi would react violently and refuse to submit obediently.
Princess Yongning frowned slightly and scolded Xie Mingxi calmly.
Xie Mingxi knew this would be the result, so she put on an expression of all ears and smiled at Xie Yunxi.
Xie Yunxi jumped up in anger and was about to yell angrily.
Princess Yongning's eyes turned cold and she glanced over.
Xie Yunxi stopped talking angrily, turned her head to the side and sulked.
At this time, Sheng Xuan and Xie Yuanting walked in side by side.
Princess Yongning's love for Sheng Xuan was naturally greater than that of Sheng Jinyue. She smiled and stood up to greet her personally: "Since you are here, I will stay in the mansion at noon and wait for lunch before leaving."
Sheng Xuan didn't want to stay, but when he caught sight of Xie Mingxi's figure from the corner of his eye, he immediately changed his mind: "In this case, I'll bother my aunt."
