Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

After waiting for nearly thirty minutes, Yuemao finally invited Concubine Kang to come.

Concubine Kang seemed to have rushed over, her clothes and hair were not arranged properly, and she looked a little messy. When she saw so many people gathered in the room, she seemed a little surprised and asked, "What's going on so early in the morning?"

"Empress Kang, we've been waiting for you, please sit down." Ji Anni hurriedly pulled Concubine Kang to the last chair.

In this way, the four of them were finally together.

Princess Tianning had long been impatient and urged Ji Anni, "You can talk now."

Ji Anni was so excited when she mentioned playing cards that she introduced the rules of the game to the three people present. She explained everything from shuffling to dealing, to the size of the cards, and finally to straights, flushes, and bombs. This was the first time the other three had heard of such a wonderful thing. Although it sounded a bit confusing, after playing a few times under Ji Anni's guidance, they gradually became proficient in it. Even Yizhen, the most introverted, quickly grasped the secret.

The charm of playing cards is indeed endless. Princess Tianning was so fascinated by them that she completely forgot about the special training and put all her attention on the game of cards.

Seeing that her evil plan had succeeded, Ji Anni couldn't help but laugh secretly.

But she laughed too early, and after a few hours, Princess Tianning's interest continued to grow.

Time flies faster than water, and noon is already here in the blink of an eye.

Ji Annie's stomach had been growling with hunger for a long time, but Princess Tianning was in high spirits and couldn't stop.

Ji Anni thought, isn't Princess Tianning's card addiction too great? She didn't even have breakfast, and she played cards with her until now, and she was exhausted from playing. It was more painful than just finishing the 25,000-mile Long March.

He secretly glanced at Yizhen and Concubine Kang and found that they were also tired like him, but they were reluctant to withdraw because of the princess' presence. Only Princess Tianning was tireless and played with great enthusiasm.

No, if this continues, I won't be able to have lunch. I have to think of a way...

Ji Annie rolled her eyes and came up with an idea. She suggested to the princess, "Princess, just playing cards is a bit boring. How about we add some entertainment?"

"Entertainment?" Princess Tianning's eyes lit up, and you could tell at a glance that she was very interested.

So Ji Anni continued, "The loser of each round must promise the winner something, and the loser is not allowed to refuse."

Princess Tianning was in a good mood playing cards, and agreed without thinking: "Okay, let's do as you say. The loser must promise the winner something."

Unexpectedly, Princess Tianning agreed so easily. Ji Anni couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

With Ji Anni's card skills, it would not be difficult to beat Princess Tianning. She only needed to wait for Princess Tianning to lose a game, and then she could legitimately ask her to end the game and have a good meal.

As long as Princess Tianning agreed, Yizhen and Concubine Kang would have no say. Because no matter whether they objected or agreed, they still had to follow Tianning's wishes in the end. After all, Princess Tianning was the little queen mother in the harem, and everyone had to bow their heads to her.

But Ji Anni's wishful thinking was wrong. Even the masters can make mistakes sometimes, and Ji Anni made a mistake at the wrong time. After one round, the final winner was Princess Tianning. The one who was defeated miserably was Yizhen.

Princess Tianning was very happy with her victory. She looked Yizhen over and couldn't think of what to ask her to do. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she saw a very beautiful pearl hairpin in Yizhen's hair. She pointed at the hairpin and said, "I want the hairpin on your head."

As soon as the words fell, everyone present looked towards Yizhen.

I saw a pearl hairpin adorning Yizhen's jet-black hair.

Only then did Ji Anni realize that the pearl hairpin in Yizhen's hair was the same pair that Guibao Concubine had given them.

There are two pearl hairpins, one for Ji Anni and one for Yizhen. Baogui Fei said that when she entered the palace, her mother asked her to bring the pearl hairpin into the palace, saying that if she met a good sister in the palace, she should give the pearl hairpin to the other person. Unfortunately, Baogui Fei has been in the palace for ten years and has no close friends. She envied the relationship between Ji Anni and Yizhen very much, so she gave the pearl hairpin to them, hoping that they can always be sisters and help each other.

Yizhen was the daughter of the county magistrate, and her family was not wealthy. The pearl hairpin given to her by Concubine Baogui was probably her most expensive piece of jewelry. Probably because there was a dinner hosted by the emperor in Xuantian Palace tonight, Yizhen dressed up early and put on the pearl hairpin.

But Princess Tianning had no idea where this pearl hairpin came from. She just fell in love with it at first sight and wanted it very much.

That pearl hairpin may be just an ordinary one to Tianning, but to Yizhen, it is the most precious one.

So when Yizhen heard Princess Tianning's rash request for the pearl hairpin, her face turned pale with fright.

"Are you going to give it to me or not?"

"Princess, can you change to something else?" Yizhen begged tearfully.

"No, I just want the pearl hairpin on your head." Princess Tianning's temper is that the more she can't get something, the more she wants it. In fact, she originally wanted the pearl hairpin just on a whim, but now that Yizhen actually refused to give it to her, she made up her mind to get the pearl hairpin.

"Princess, please change to something else..." Ji Anni knew that Yizhen was reluctant to do so, so she also helped to plead.

Tian Ning said in a low voice: "Didn't you say that the loser should obey the winner? How can you ignore what you said?"

As she spoke, Princess Tianning actually reached out to grab the pearl hairpin on Yizhen's head. Yizhen was so scared that she almost fell off the chair.

Ji Anni stopped Princess Tianning and said, "Princess, if you really want this pearl hairpin, I will give you mine. I have a hairpin that is exactly the same as this one, I will give mine to you."

I thought that this would settle the matter peacefully, but Princess Tianning still insisted, "No, I want the one on her head."

Concubine Kang also pleaded for Yizhen, "Tianning, forget it. I'll give you my jade bracelet. Haven't you always liked it?"

"No, I just want the pearl hairpin on her head!" Princess Tianning grabbed Yizhen's hair and reached out to pull the hairpin again.

Ji Anni grabbed her wrist and said, "Princess, this hairpin was given to you by Concubine Baogui. You can't just give it away."

Yizhen was so scared that she started crying.

After hearing the crying, Princess Tianning became even more furious and yelled at Yizhen. Her voice attracted all the concubines in the East Concubine Palace. They all gathered outside the door, leaning their heads and stretching their waists to see what was going on.

"Are you going to give it to me or not?"

Yizhen just cried.

"Forget it!" Princess Tianning ran away angrily, and Huarongmei hurriedly chased after her.

Concubine Kang and Ji Anni both comforted Yizhen.

The concubines outside the door were talking about it, pointing fingers at Yizhen. Although I couldn't hear what they were saying, it was definitely not good. Yizhen cried even harder.
