Quick Wear: Salted Fish anchor always eats melons on the scene

A few days ago, the Xiang family sent someone to pass on a message to Xiang Yinyao who was in the Eastern Palace, saying helplessly that Shi Li had turned a blind eye to the goodwill shown by Xiang Chen and Xiang Yue, and the family had no way to win over Shi Li and thus get close to Princess Wenchang.

Xiang Yinyao was raised as the future queen, and she was treated as a noble lady, and she could get whatever she wanted. After receiving the letter from home, she was very unhappy.

She felt that her status was more noble than Princess Wenchang's. Now that her younger brother wanted to marry the princess's sister, she should be grateful and marry him with great fanfare.

But Shi Li was just the opposite. Not only was she not grateful, she even kept her distance from her brother.

Today, Xiang Yinyao heard that Shi Li was summoned into the palace by Concubine Xian. She could no longer sit still and went directly to Concubine Xian's palace, wanting to meet Shi Li in person.

Now that she had seen the real person, even the most discerning person could not help but praise Shi Li's good looks after taking a closer look.

When Princess Wenchang took the initiative to ask for permission to marry Shi Qing, many people said that what she admired was not Shi Qing's talent but his appearance.

I didn’t expect Shi Qing’s sister to be so beautiful.

Xiang Yinyao pinched her sleeves, feeling a sense of crisis in her heart. She herself was pretty and had always been respected by the prince in the East Palace.

But she also knew very well that the prince liked women of stunning appearance more than anyone else. He had previously favored a concubine, and later Xu Liangdi.

If the prince saw Shi Li, he would definitely be attracted to her, and might even use an excuse to win over Princess Wenchang and give Shi Li the position of concubine.

Thinking of this, Xiang Yinyao looked at Shi Li with a sharper gaze.

Shi Li saw that she had been silent and her knees were bent stiffly. She thought that this Crown Princess was extremely petty. After all, she had saved Xiang Yue's life, yet she was treated like this.

But this is the Zhen Dynasty, and although the atmosphere is open, it is still a feudal dynasty after all. She doesn't want to use her precious life to challenge the Crown Princess's obviously narrow-mindedness.

"Why doesn't the Crown Princess allow Miss Shi to stand up? Is this an attempt to intimidate someone?" Fortunately, Concubine Wei spoke up, but her words were very harsh.

Xiang Yinyao came out of her contemplation, frowned, and responded with a fake smile: "The Concubine Xian is joking with me again. I just saw that Miss Shi was so beautiful that I forgot about it in a trance."

After explaining a lot, he finally said to Shi Li, "Get up quickly."

Shi Li's smile was stiff, and she had already cursed Xiang Yinyao five, six, seven or eight times in her heart.

"This is the first time that the Crown Princess has set foot in this palace. I heard that no one comes here for no reason. I wonder what the Crown Princess is here for today?"

Concubine Wei Xianfei sat upright on the chair, holding a teacup in her hand. She was no longer friendly and gentle as she had just been when talking to Shi Li. Every word she said was full of thorns, and it seemed that she did not want to give Xiang Yinyao any face at all.

Most of the palace servants around held their breath and kept quiet, fearing that the fight between the big guys would eventually affect them, the small fish in the pond.

"Her Royal Highness always makes fun of me. I just got a small coral and wanted to give it to her to play with, but I was afraid that my subordinates might be too rude, so I personally delivered it to her."

Xiang Yinyao had not spent several years in the Eastern Palace for nothing. She was not angered by Concubine Xian at all. She behaved like a very humble junior. She looked up and ordered the palace servants around her, "Go and get the coral. I will personally deliver it to Concubine Xian."

The expression on Concubine Wei's face was not very good. She looked around without speaking to the Crown Princess. Her gaze returned to Shi Li and she forced a smile again.

"Miss Shi, come and take a look at the precious coral that the Crown Princess sent you, and see if it's pretty."

Shi Li: ...

If she could choose, she would just leave now and not want to get involved in this mess. But as a virtuous concubine and a crown princess, she had no right to choose and could only go with the flow.

"Okay, I'm honored."

Alas, when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

The palace servants brought by Xiang Yinyao quickly carried in a bright red coral, which was about the height of an adult's arm. It was placed in a glass flowerpot, which was covered with layer upon layer of jade. It was placed in the center of the palace and it looked really beautiful.

However, the minds of the people present were not on the coral.

After such a short buffer time, Xiang Yinyao had completely adjusted her mentality and asked Shi Li in a very friendly manner, "I wonder if Miss Shi is engaged?"
