Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 18 Seeing Furong Again

"Little sweet dates?" Yizhen couldn't help but laugh, "Sister, stop making fun of me."

Ji Anni ate another date and said, "I just let you call me Xiao Zhao, and you called me sister."

"Oh, I'll be more careful next time, sister..." As soon as she opened her mouth, she realized that she had said something wrong again. She quickly covered her mouth and changed her words, "Xiao Zhao... please don't take it as an offense."

"I can't blame you no matter what I do." Ji Anni pointed at the dates on the table and said, "For the sake of these candied dates."

After speaking a few words to Yizhen, Ji Anni's depressed mood gradually improved.

Ji Anni really likes Su Yizhen, because there is no pressure to be with her, and the two can easily talk to each other. Although Ji Anni also likes Baogui Fei, Baogui Fei is a noble concubine after all, and her liking for Baogui Fei is actually more of a respect for her sister. But it is different for Yizhen. Both of them are concubines, and they have entered the palace not long ago, and their ages are about the same. Although the time and space are different, the topics of girls are nothing more than the same few-eating, drinking, playing and gossiping.

Yizhen took the opportunity to talk about the delicious food in Nanhu County. Ji Anni's mouth was watering and her stomach was growling even more. Seeing that she had made Ji Anni hungry, Yizhen went back to her room to get a few bags of Nanhu County special snacks.

With the delicious food in front of her, Ji Anni was no longer sleepy at all, and the two of them became happier and happier as they talked.

As they were talking, Yizhen asked curiously, "Xiao Zhao, why are you so hungry?"

In the blink of an eye, all the delicacies on the table were swept away by Ji Annie.

"Oh, don't mention it." Ji Anni was full and in better spirits. She patted the table and said, "I went to the banquet hosted by the Queen Mother today, but I didn't get to eat a single bite of food. Instead, I came back with a belly full of anger. That Princess Tianning really needs a good spanking. She really needs discipline. Humph, it's a loss of national morality and dignity for the Holy Dynasty of Tianyou to have a princess like that..."

Before Ji Anni finished scolding, she saw Yizhen's face change. Fearing that what she just said might be heard by others, Yizhen hurriedly turned back to look at the door. Seeing that the door was closed, she breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ji Anni in a low voice, "Xiao Zhao, you must not talk nonsense. If others hear it, you will be beheaded."

"Alas, it's late at night, even the mice are asleep, who can hear it?" Ji Anni was brave enough, patted Yizhen's hand and said, "Yizhen, I'm telling you these things because I treat you as a friend. You don't let me say it, just want to suffocate me to death. Let me tell you, that Princess Tianning, she..."

"Shh! Shh!" Even if Ji Anni dared to speak, Yizhen didn't dare to listen, and hurriedly covered Ji Anni's uncovered mouth with her hands.

Seeing Yizhen looking frightened, Ji Anni didn't make things difficult for her and just kept quiet.

Just as silence fell, I heard a faint sound of footsteps approaching the room.

Is there someone else here? It's so lively...

Just as I was thinking, I heard a knock on the door. This knock was not as gentle as Yizhen's knock. I only heard a few "bang bang" sounds, and even the house was shaken. God... Even when I was warned by the aunt of the dormitory to knock on the door during the night talk in the dormitory before, I never heard such a terrifying sound. It was not knocking on the door at all, but demolishing the house. Aunt Yang looked gentle, she didn't seem like such a vicious person.

Ji Anni was a little angry and shouted, "Who is it?"

I thought I would hear Aunt Yang's voice, but it turned out to be a thin female voice. The female voice said proudly, "The daughter of the Grand Commander of Qingzhou, her surname is Shui and her name is Furong."

"Water Hibiscus?" Ji Anni was stunned, wondering why this name sounded so familiar.

"Oh, Water Lotus." Yizhen turned pale with fright.

"What's wrong?" Ji Anni just asked, and suddenly she remembered who Shui Furong was.

When she followed Yun Zhen into the palace today, she saw a sedan chair outside the palace gate. The lady sitting in the sedan chair seemed to be called Shui Furong. At that time, Ji Anni thought that the lady was extremely beautiful and liked her very much, but now after hearing her arrogant voice and the loud knock on the door that was not ladylike at all, her initial good impression of her completely dropped to zero.

It seems that Yun Zhen was right. Although Shui Furong was beautiful, she was too arrogant. Like Princess Tianning, she was a bully who took advantage of her power to bully others.

Grand Commander of Qingzhou? I don't know what kind of official he is, but I know from the sound of it that he is much more powerful than the county magistrate of Yizhen's father. No wonder Yizhen is so afraid of her. She must have heard of Shui Furong's bad reputation.

"Open the door quickly." Shui Furong's voice outside the door became louder.

Ji Anni opened the door unhappily and saw a pretty girl with a standard oval face standing outside.

A beauty is always a beauty, even when she is angry, she still looks very charming. When those narrow eyes glare at her, they are really quite intimidating.

Shui Furong is about the same age as Yizheng, around sixteen or seventeen, but one can tell at a glance that the clothes she wears and the jewelry on her head are high-end.

Like Ji Anni, Shui Furong had just entered the palace today. She probably had just cleaned up her room, and her face was a little tired. But that tiredness was far less obvious than her current anger.

She pushed the door open and walked in. She didn't even have Ji Anni in her eyes. She pointed at Yizhen and rushed over, shouting, "I told you to pack your things but you didn't. Why did you come here? Do you think I can't do anything if you hide here? Su Yizhen, I warn you. You have half an hour to move all the things in your room out. Otherwise, let's just wait and see if I, the daughter of the Grand Commander of Qingzhou, can do anything to you."

Yizhen was so frightened that she didn't dare to say a word. She lowered her head and her body trembled.

Ji Anni couldn't stand it any longer. Although she didn't know what happened, she knew Shui Furong was the one who was wrong by her attitude. So Ji Anni stood up to defend Yizhen and said, "What do you mean by moving or not? Who are you warning? Who are you punishing? Do you think you can do whatever you want in the Concubine's Palace just because you are the daughter of a governor?"

Who knew that Shui Furong only glanced at Ji Anni with the corner of her eyes and said disdainfully: "I'm talking to her, it has nothing to do with you."

"This is my room!" Does this mean it's none of my business?

"Then let's go outside and talk." After saying that, Shui Furong grabbed Yizhen's arm and tried to pull Yizhen out.

Yizhen was so scared that she kept shouting "No". Ji Anni couldn't stand to see Shui Furong doing whatever she wanted, so she stood in the doorway and said, "Let's talk it out in the room. If you want to bully Yizhen, ask me first if I agree."

"Oh?" Shui Furong glanced at Yizhen and said sarcastically, "I thought it was something else, but it turns out that you have found a backer?" As she said that, she raised her eyebrow and looked at Ji Anni sharply, and asked, "May I ask your name, sister?"

"Zhao Ji." Ji Anni gave her name.

"Zhao Ji, who do I think you are?" Shui Furong sneered, "You are just a little maid from Qi State. Do you think you can ascend to the throne by giving birth to a prince for the emperor? In the end, you can't even enter the palace. I heard that you even ended up living in a brothel. I don't know why the queen mother agreed to let you enter the palace... Letting a dirty woman like you enter the palace is simply a shame for the royal family."
