The Regent Princess has run away again

In the sleeping hall.

"Miss, someone is coming to the palace today, get up quickly!"

Xue Zhiyu tossed and turned because she had met Xue Zihan last night. She didn't finally fall asleep until dawn.

After sleeping for a few hours, she was woken up by Xiaoqiu. Thinking about the visitor from the palace today, Xue Zhiyu had to force herself to stay awake, but her eyes were still blurry.

After Xiaoqiu had fixed her hair and was about to put makeup on her, Xue Zhiyu politely refused.

I really cannot agree with the makeup of the ancients. Her face is whiter than the wall of her bedroom, and her lipstick is as red as a child who didn't have time to wipe his mouth after eating.

"I can do it myself. Go and get me breakfast."

"Okay, miss, if you really can't do it, I'll draw it for you later."

"Well, go ahead, go ahead."

After sending Xiao Qiu away, Xue Zhiyu picked up the eyebrow pencil and carefully drew her eyebrows in front of the bronze mirror. After applying a little makeup, she applied a thin layer of blush and also a thin layer of rouge on her lips.

The girl in the bronze mirror was wearing a long dress made of gauze and embroidered with gold thread. Her delicate and fair skin was as smooth as a shelled lychee. A light blush made her look more pretty. Her lips were full and rosy. The most attractive thing was her pair of peach blossom eyes. Her eyes were bright and lively when they moved around. Her long eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly spreading its wings to fly.

Xue Zhiyu is quite satisfied with this makeup, but it’s a pity that there was no eye shadow in that era, otherwise it would have looked even better.

"Miss, your breakfast..."

Xiaoqiu pushed the door open and walked in. As soon as she finished speaking, she was stunned when she saw the appearance of her young lady.

"Do I look weird?"

Xue Zhiyu raised her eyebrows and asked.

"No, no, no, Miss, your painting is so beautiful. She is simply the most beautiful in our Yan country!" Xiao Qiu put down her breakfast, her eyes full of undisguised amazement.

"Okay, stop flattering me and finish your breakfast quickly."

After breakfast, the two of them went to the front hall one after the other. As soon as they entered the door, they saw the culprit who had prevented her from sleeping the whole night.

"Morning, sister Zhiyu."

Xue Zihan was waving the folding fan in his hand, looking very elegant and dashing, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Good morning, big brother."

Xue Zhiyu had no choice but to say hello, but she was thinking in her mind that she had to find a way to avoid this person who frightened her body.

"Oh, Sister Zhiyu is finally back. I missed you so much," Xue Yumei walked in from the door and spoke slowly.

The lotus silk pipa-collared top and the floor-length skirt with flower patterns made her shoulders look as if they were cut into waists as if they were slender. Her skin was as white as cream and her red lips were filled with a faint smile.

"Good morning, big sister."

Xue Zhiyu greeted her indifferently, then looked away and stopped looking at Xue Yumei.

Xue Yumei didn't care about her attitude. She still stood beside Xue Zhiyu with a smile on her face, and chatted with her from time to time.

From an outsider's perspective, it looks like a good sister caring for her younger sister.

Mrs. Xue and Prime Minister Xue, who had not been seen for a long time, walked in together. The two were talking and laughing, looking like a loving couple.

Mrs. Xue seemed to have lost weight, and her face had become kind, as if the sarcastic person she used to be was no longer her.

Xue Zhiyu was quite sarcastic in her heart. Her cheap father was such a playboy. The oaths he made were like farts, disappearing completely.

Xue Zihan had been keeping an eye on Xue Zhiyu, especially her outfit today, which caught his eye. He did not miss the mockery in her eyes just now.

Soon, Eunuch Huang walked to the front hall under the guidance of the housekeeper.

"How are you these days, Prime Minister? His Majesty is concerned about your health and has specially sent us to come and see you."

Prime Minister Xue bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."

"That's great. After all, the Prime Minister is the head of the civil service and the right arm of the emperor, so the Prime Minister's health is the most important."

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before Eunuch Huang looked at the Xue sisters on the side.

"Are these two the ladies chosen by the adults?"

"That's right. Yumei is good at dancing. It's her honor to be able to enter the palace to participate in the memorial dance training. As for Zhiyu, this child has just reached the age of marriage. It would be a good thing to let Yumei take her to broaden her horizons."

There was nothing wrong with Prime Minister Xue's answer, but if you think about it carefully, you can tell that he mainly wanted to highlight the excellence of his eldest daughter, and Xue Zhiyu was just mentioned in passing.

Eunuch Huang didn't say much. His task today was just to bring the noble lady selected by the Xue family into the palace. Everything else had nothing to do with him.

"In that case, Miss Xue and Princess Kangle, please come with us."

The two of them got on the carriage outside the mansion one after the other.

As soon as she entered the carriage, Xue Zhiyu was once again shocked by the grandeur of the palace.

The carriage is made of pine wood and is very spacious inside. You can smell a faint pine scent in the air. The seat cushions feel like silk. The octagonal table is made of pear wood, and each corner is plated with golden flower patterns.

The carriage drove very smoothly and there was no sense of turbulence.

"Ring ring! Ring ring!"

Xue Zhiyu leaned against the cushion behind her. From her angle, she could just see a wind chime hanging in the carriage. The wind blew and it made clear and pleasant sounds, soothing every restless heart.

In the private room of Sixi Building.

Lu Tingxuan supported his chin with one hand and saw a carriage passing by below. Sitting in the front was Eunuch Huang. He rolled his eyes and looked back at the man playing chess at the table.

"I heard that Eunuch Huang is responsible for picking up Miss Xue. I don't know if the princess is here. Aren't you curious?"

"If you have the time, why not go check for news about the leader of Liuying Pavilion?"

Nangong Ye placed the white chess piece in his hand into the chessboard and looked at the black chess piece that was surrounded in the middle. His dark pupils were like an ancient well, without any sign of fluctuation.

"I have almost searched the entire Yan Kingdom for the past few days, but there is no sign of the Pavilion Master. I am beginning to suspect that Wen Jingxuan is fooling us."

The more Lu Tingxuan thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, and he became even more angry.

"He would not bother to tell such a lie. You should have people ambush near Yuling Mountain. Do not alert the enemy."

"Yuling Mountain?"

"Well, You said he found a suspicious person in Yuling Mountain, but the other person's skills are better than his, so it's not easy for him to follow him."

When Lu Tingxuan heard this, he couldn't help but be a little surprised: "What?! You's skills are no less than you and me, so this person is probably not an ordinary person. I'll have someone keep an eye on him."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Ye held a white chess piece between two fingers and threw it towards the closed wooden door.

The white chess piece with internal force was like a sharp arrow that cut through the air, passed through the thin wooden door, and hit the person who was originally outside the door hard.

The man dressed as a waiter outside the door snorted and quickly left Sixi Building.

Lu Tingxuan's expression couldn't help but become serious. Just as they were talking about the news about the Pavilion Master, someone came to eavesdrop on their conversation. The person must be no simple person.

"Master, then we..."

“The plan remains the same, but we need to be more cautious.”

"Yes."

Nangong Ye placed the last white chess piece in the last empty space surrounded by black chess pieces.

The situation has been decided.

In the Yunlai Inn, Wanwan was walking back and forth, muttering something.

Bai Ruolan rubbed her temples, her tone full of helplessness: "Sit down, isn't the memorial ceremony going to be held in five days?"

"But only the leader can perform that dance. No one else can perform it. But I don't know why I have a strange feeling in my heart."

Wanwan also knew that this had little to do with them, and no one could jump out anyway.

Bai Ruolan sighed. She felt the same as Wanwan, feeling inexplicably uneasy, as if something bad was going to happen.

"Didn't Concubine Zhao invite you, Ruolan, to attend the memorial ceremony that day? Why don't you accept the invitation and go?"

"Okay, I'll reply to her right away."

......

After Xue Zhiyu and the other person got off the carriage, Eunuch Huang asked the person in charge to teach them, while he went to report to the emperor.

No matter how many times she entered the palace, Xue Zhiyu was still amazed by the layout and magnificent architecture of the palace, especially the pavilions and towers, which made her feel like she was in the south of the Yangtze River.

After passing the winding corridor, we arrived in front of a palace.

Guangxiu Palace.

There were already several noble ladies sitting in their respective seats in the palace.

Xue Zhiyu and Xue Yumei also found an empty seat and sat down. When the instructor saw them sitting down, he glanced at the other noble ladies present and slowly walked to the center.

"All the ladies have been selected, and I believe you all know the reason for entering the palace. I will not say more. Time is urgent. I will teach you the next three days of training. I will give you a booklet later. I hope you can digest it today."

After the teacher finished speaking, several palace maids came in from outside and distributed the booklets in their hands to the ladies one by one.

"Please hurry up, ladies. I will come to check on your studies in one stick of incense."

After the instructor lit the incense stick, he walked out.

Xue Zhiyu opened the booklet in her hand, as if she was afraid that they would find it difficult to understand. Each step of the memorial dance was broken down in great detail, which was quite suitable for a dance novice like her.

She turned the pages and looked at the broken down movements. Although she had never learned them before, they gave her a familiar feeling, as if she had done them before.

Xue Zhiyu was frightened by her own thought. She calmed herself down and thought that she must not have had enough rest recently. How could she be able to dance like this?

The person sitting opposite was Zhao Manrou, who was staring at Xue Zhiyu intently, as if she wanted to skin her alive and eat her.

This bitch was also chosen this time. But it's also true. If Sister Yu Lu hadn't been married, how could she have had a chance? !

It must be that she deliberately framed Sister Yu Lu and made her marry that scumbag from the Cai family in order to be able to participate in the training of this memorial dance.

Looking at her smug look, and then thinking about how Sister Yu Lu actually pleaded for her, asking her not to embarrass this bitch, she became angrier and angrier.

Zhao Manrou wanted to tear off Xue Zhiyu's hypocritical face. She put the booklet aside, walked over and said sarcastically, "Are the selection standards so low now? It's ridiculous that someone who framed his own sisters can also be selected into the academy."

As soon as Xue Zhiyu heard the voice, she knew it was Zhao Manrou from Hemutang that time, and a trace of disgust flashed across her eyes.

Why are these annoying flies everywhere?

Seeing that she ignored her, Zhao Manrou became even angrier.

"What's your attitude?! Sister Yu Lu even spoke well of you. It was you who framed Sister Yu Lu and made her marry that scumbag Cai Wentao. You were the one who should have married Cai Wentao, but you resorted to such despicable means to avoid him and for this memorial ceremony!"

Zhao Manrou spoke with such righteous indignation that people who didn't know her might think she was a righteous person.

Cai Wentao's character was no secret among the noble ladies. There was a saying that one would rather marry someone else than be Cai Wentao's concubine.

After hearing what Zhao Manrou said, many noble ladies looked at Xue Zhiyu with contempt, including several of Xue Yulu's good friends.

"I heard that some people rely on their status as princesses to be fickle and shameless."

"That's right. I saw it with my own eyes. It was true that she was in a relationship with her old lover. She just used some means to suppress it."

"Tsk, maybe there are already bastards out there."

"Poor sister Yulu, she actually tricked me."

"Sister Yu Lu is so kind and always speaks up for her."

Xue Zhiyu glanced at the booklet and it was as if a video of the dance was playing in her mind. She remembered most of the movements.

She raised her head and looked at the several noble ladies sitting near Zhao Manrou.

She recognized them. They were Xue Yumei and Zhao Hanming's followers. It was really a narrow road for enemies to meet.

"Where did these flies come from? They really disturb the peace and quiet."

Xue Zhiyu interrupted the whispering ladies with her indifferent voice, and raised her head to glance at Jiang Wenwen and others.

It was clearly just a glance, but Jiang Wenwen felt the gaze lingering on her. Suddenly, she felt a little creepy and subconsciously turned her head to look away.

Damn it, is this bitch possessed? Why am I inexplicably afraid of her?

Song Yaxuan suppressed her fear and said, "Who do you say is a fly?!"

"Of course it's the person who identified himself. Since someone mentioned my second sister, in order to prevent some people from spreading rumors and damaging the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I told the truth. My second sister was actually having sex with Master Cai in the mansion. After they were discovered, Master Cai married her as a concubine for the sake of my second sister's reputation."

Xue Yulu certainly couldn't have thought of this, it was only her good elder sister who thought of it for her.

You want to use her as a stepping stone to improve yourself. Xue Zhiyu is not a kind person. Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing an uproar.

The ladies seemed to have been paused. Even Xue Yumei, who was not involved in the incident, was stunned. Her dignified face looked very ugly and her expression kept changing, but she soon returned to calm.

Looking at their expressions, Xue Zhiyu was also expecting this.

After all, the Xue couple kept the incident a secret and would not reveal it at all.

Since Xue Yulu wants to gain a sense of presence in front of her, then just fulfill her wish.

Seeing that Xue Zhiyu was not bullied, Chen Shanrong finally let go of her worries and continued to read the booklet in her hand. After all, an incense stick of time was not long.

Song Yaxuan seemed to be strangled by the neck. She was speechless for a moment. She snorted and lowered her head to continue reading the booklet.

The noble ladies looked at each other, and although they stopped talking, their hearts were in turmoil, and each of them had their own thoughts.

Xue Zhiyu finally had a quiet environment to continue reading her booklet, and she read it from beginning to end again.

This memorial dance has another name - Psylocke.
