Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 29: Small Mistakes Continue

After changing her clothes and combing her hair, Ji Anni turned around in front of Yizhen.

Yizhen admired her own achievements and praised: "It is indeed very different from yesterday. Today, if Xiao Zhao stands among the concubines, she will definitely stand out."

"That's all thanks to Yizhen." Ji Anni took Yizhen's hand and walked out.

"Xiao Zhao, since you don't have a maid, I'll come and help you comb your hair every day." Yizhen was very enthusiastic.

"Eh? How can this be so embarrassing?"

Ji Anni refused, but she was still very happy in her heart. Because she really didn't know anything about combing hair. She was best at tying a ponytail, and it was a dream to comb her hair into a bun.

Yizhen said, "Xiao Zhao, not to mention that you can't do a royal bun by yourself, even I can't do it for myself. This bun is complicated and must be done with the help of a maid, but your maid has been snatched away by the princess..."

"Huh, she did it on purpose."

Thinking of the maid, Ji Anni got angry again. Originally, the palace assigned her a maid named "Die'er" to serve her, but Princess Tianning snatched this maid away. It was obvious that she was deliberately targeting Ji Anni and wanted to teach her a lesson.

Yizhen advised, "It's okay, Xiaozhao, I will help you comb your hair from now on."

Ji Anni was always straightforward, but for some reason, she felt embarrassed at this moment. Perhaps she felt that Yizhen was too good to her, and she had no way to help her, so she felt a little embarrassed to accept Yizhen's kindness.

The two sisters talked as they walked, and soon they arrived at the Renhe Hall.

The other concubines had already gathered there, and Aunt Yang and Aunt Yu had also arrived.

Although Ji Anni and Yizhen were not late, they were the last two.

Aunt Yang glared at the two of them and signaled with her eyes that they should stand up quickly.

Yizhen held Ji Anni's hand and stood at the end of the team. Now everyone was there. There were fifteen concubines living in the East Concubine Palace and the West Concubine Palace, just enough to line up in two rows to practice the palace steps.

Ji Anni missed a class yesterday and couldn't keep up with the rhythm. When others were moving their right legs, she moved her left leg; when others were moving their left legs, she moved her right leg. Her hand-shaking method was also wrong. After just two steps, Aunt Yang called out "Stop".

"Empress Zhao, can you please be more serious?" Aunt Yang spoke politely.

Ji Anni stuck out her tongue and answered softly, "Hmm."

At this time, Yizhen whispered in her ear: "Xiao Zhao, walk slower and follow my movements."

Although Yizhen was with her, Ji Anni's court steps were very awkward, and the two aunts emphasized and instructed her many times. But Ji Anni had always walked with big steps and swung her hands since she was a child, and it was a habit. It was not easy to correct it. The two aunts stared at Ji Anni, their eyes almost popped out of the window, but Ji Anni still did not make any progress.

After walking in a horizontal line for a few times, they started practicing walking in a vertical line. The so-called horizontal line means that the fifteen concubines stand in a horizontal row and walk forward shoulder to shoulder; the so-called vertical line means that the fifteen concubines stand in a vertical line and walk forward. When walking in a horizontal line, the people around them are on the left and right, but when walking in a vertical line, the people around them are in front and behind. So it's okay if you don't practice walking in a vertical line, but it's terrible if you practice walking in a vertical line.

Ji Anni stood at the end. Logically, it should be easy for her to follow the steps of the person in front of her and walk the court steps well. But the problem was that the concubines all wore skirts. Standing in front of Ji Anni was Yizhen, and the skirt she wore today was particularly long, with the hem hanging down to the ground.

So after taking just two steps, Ji Anni stepped on Yizhen's skirt.

Yizhen screamed and threw herself forward, knocking down the concubine in front of her. The concubine in front threw herself forward again, and one after another, like dominoes, all fifteen concubines fell straight down face down.

The one who suffered the most was Shui Furong, who was walking in the front. She was originally the leader of the team, but the concubines who fell down together just happened to press her down at the bottom, making it impossible for her to maintain her usual calm. She frowned and groaned continuously.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The culprit, Annie, got up from the ground, looked at the tragic scene in front of her, and was so scared that she apologized and bowed.

All the concubines who fell down stared at her, ignored her, and just kept groaning on the ground.

Only Yizhen stood up and helped Ji Anni to lift up the other concubines who had fallen.

At this time, all the concubines in the Western Concubine Palace nearby started laughing.

Shui Furong couldn't stand others laughing at her, so she jumped up and glared at them, "What are you laughing at? Shut up!"

She yelled fiercely, and sure enough, after this yell, no one in the West Concubine Palace dared to laugh. Although she had just entered the palace for one day, Shui Furong had basically become the representative of the East Concubine Palace. No matter what she learned, she was like a team leader, leading the way and managing the team. In fact, Ji Anni admired Shui Furong's leadership ability.

Shui Furong is very good at shocking people, and is very suitable to be a leader. But she has a bad temper. She is not only fierce to outsiders, but also fierce to her sisters. This is not the case. After yelling at the concubines in the Xi Congfei Palace, Shui Furong picked up her skirt and rushed towards Ji Anni again, pointing at Ji Anni and yelling: "What's wrong with you? You can't even walk properly? Do you know..."

"Do you know that Consort Zhao Cong was taught by this princess?"

Before Shui Furong finished her words, she heard another arrogant female voice coming from behind her.

Everyone turned around and saw Princess Tianning coming with her two beautiful palace maids.

"May the princess live a thousand years and be blessed." The aunt and the concubine hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects to Princess Tianning.

After yesterday's experience, Ji Annie's reaction was not slow this time. She hurriedly knelt down with the other concubines, fearing that if she was a little slow, Princess Tianning would catch her and make trouble for her.

But even though Ji Anni knelt down obediently, Princess Tianning still held on to her.

Tian Ning slowly walked to Ji Anni and said, "Oh, Concubine Zhao, you are really dressed up beautifully today, but why did you fall down so early in the morning and cause the other concubines to fall as well? You are my student. If the student does not learn well, the teacher will also be gossiped about."

Ji Anni said: "The princess taught well, it was Zhao Ji who was stupid and let the princess down."

"Hmph." Princess Tianning didn't buy her tricks and turned her head away, saying, "Today I will give you some special instructions, Concubine Zhao Cong, please follow me."

You still need special guidance? Are you done yet?

Ji Anni wanted to burst into curse words.

Yizhen suddenly pulled Ji Anni's hand, as if to make her stay calm. But unexpectedly, this action was seen by Princess Tianning. Tianning lowered her head and walked towards Yizhen who was kneeling at her feet, and raised her voice and said, "What do you mean by pulling Zhao Congfei? Are you afraid that this princess will bully Zhao Congfei?"

Ji Anni thought in her heart: She is not afraid that you will bully me, but that I will bully you. Humph, Princess Tianning, if you were not a princess, how could I, Ji Anni, bear so much anger from you.
