Since they are all worn by the Qing Dynasty, you might as well be bold and choose Kangxi!

The room suddenly became quiet, Suochao Luo Jiahui's face changed, and Li Jiamingxiu also suddenly lowered his eyes.

At this time, Hongying reacted and was overjoyed. She replied, "This is Shi Gege's house."

After saying this, he straightened his chest, turned his head and looked at Suochu and Luo Jiahui, and said with some difficulty:

"My two princesses, my second princess is going to meet the eunuch from Yikun Palace..."

There was no need for them to say the rest as they both understood. Now both had grim expressions on their faces, but no matter how dissatisfied they were, they could only suppress their anger and get up and leave.

When they got outside, Suochuo and Luo Jiahui did not leave immediately, but stood there and watched Xiao Xuzi go in. At this time, Li Jiamingxiu suddenly whispered:

"It seems that we are worrying too much. Both sisters of the Shi family are valued by the nobles in the palace!"

Hearing this, Suochu Luo Jiahui, who already felt a burning pain on her face, snapped off her newly dyed nails and gritted her teeth and said:

"That depends on whether they are lucky enough to receive this attention."

"let's go!"

Inside the house, Shi Nanxi sat on the main seat, watching an honest eunuch walk in. After greeting him, he first showed the badge of the Yiku Palace, and then repeated what he had just said outside the door.

Naturally, no one dared to forge the waist badge in the palace, but... Shi Nanxi's mind raced, and she said softly:

"Your Highness, Concubine Yi is so noble and honorable. I am so excited to have the honor of being summoned. But I just heard you say... Are you inviting Princess Shi?"

She rubbed her handkerchief, a hint of hesitation on her face:

"But this... there are two Shi Gege in the room. One is my eldest sister. She was summoned by the Empress Dowager early in the morning and has not returned yet. I am the second Shi Gege. I asked this question because I am afraid that I might have made a mistake and the Empress would blame me."

Xiao Xuzi was confused now. He had received an order from the Ninth Prince to take the Yikun Palace badge to take away a princess named Shi from the Chuxiu Palace and give her a severe lesson. However, he did not expect that there were two Princess Shi here.

Thinking about what the other party said about another Princess Shi being summoned by the Empress Dowager, she must be dignified and noble and would not easily offend the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince must be referring to the Second Princess in front of him. After quickly thinking and coming to a conclusion, he bowed and said with a solemn oath:

"That's right. The order I received was to invite the Second Princess."

Shi Nanxi was still suspicious and wary of this inexplicable summons, but if it was really Concubine Yi who summoned her, she had to go. After thinking about it, she said:

"In that case, let me change my clothes and leave."

Xiao Xuzi was afraid that the secret would be exposed if he took too long, so he was a little anxious, but he didn't show any sign on his face. Upon hearing this, he bowed and went outside the door to wait.

Inside the house, Shi Nanxi thought of the rumor that Concubine Yi was beautiful, so she asked Hongying to change her current pink Manchu dress into an emerald green one, and then put on a fox fur cloak of the same color on the outside, and looked at herself carefully in the dressing mirror.

Seeing herself in the mirror, dressed simply but not in a deliberately low-key manner, she nodded with relief, then went out holding the hand warmer and taking Hongying with her.

When Xiao Xuzi outside the door saw the other party coming out, he saw Hongying following beside him, and a gleam of light flashed quickly in his eyes, but he lowered his head and led the way honestly.

"Ouch!"

Not long after leaving Chuxiu Palace, Hongying was suddenly bumped by a young eunuch and splashed with cold water.

It was March, the coldest month of spring, and the capital was still very cold. Hongying felt the chill from the cold water soaking her clothes and shivered immediately. The young eunuch was so scared that he knelt on the ground.

"The slave deserves to die, the slave deserves to die."

Shi Nanxi, who was not affected, saw this scene and said quickly:

"Hey Hongying, go back and change your clothes. Don't catch a cold from these wet clothes. And don't forget to drink a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold."

"I'm fine, how are you?"

Hongying's teeth were chattering from the cold, but she could not take care of herself. Instead, she looked at Shi Nanxi anxiously. Soon she was thankful:

"Fortunately, fortunately, not a drop of cold water got on you. Otherwise, you are already weak, and if something happened, I would be worried sick."

Not even a drop of cold water?

Shi Nanxi's worried expression froze slightly. Hongying was standing beside her and supporting her just now. Half of Hongying's body was wet, but she didn't get splashed with a single drop of water. Was she so lucky?

Why doesn't she believe it?

But he remained calm and continued to persuade:

"I'm not idle, go back quickly and don't delay any longer!"

Hongying trembled, a trace of worry appeared on her face:

"But then you have to go to Yikun Palace alone?"

Yes, she was alone. Shi Nanxi glanced at Xiao Xuzi who was waiting on the side, and her heart turned cold.

She seemed to have thought of something, clutching her handkerchief tightly, pretending to have just remembered this, and said hesitantly:

"But you won't be able to meet Concubine Yi like this, otherwise..."

She bit her lower lip nervously and looked at Xiao Xuzi hesitantly:

"Eunuch Xu, look, this place is not far from Chuxiu Palace. Can we wait for a while until Hongying changes her clothes before going to Yikun Palace?"

But secretly observing each other.

Xiao Xuzi frowned secretly when he heard this, then raised his eyes slightly, looking troubled.

"Second Princess Shi, I'm afraid this won't work. The Queen's summons is so important, how can we keep her waiting for so long? If she blames us later, neither you nor I can bear the consequences!"

As he spoke, he saw that Shi Nanxi was still hesitating, and fearing that something might go wrong, he quickly added:

"Second Princess Shi, I have walked the road to Yikun Palace hundreds of times, and I will not make the mistake this time. It is getting late, let's go quickly."

Shi Nanxi noticed that when the other party talked about the way to Yiku Palace, his eyes looked to the upper right and deliberately looked at her.

This is to make her believe him, so this sentence is a lie. Going back to that sentence, the slave has walked the road to Yikun Palace hundreds of times, so there should be no problem. As for the second sentence, he will not go wrong this time either. His mind was working fast.

Suddenly the word "this time" was extracted, so could it be that this time we are not going to Yikun Palace?

Thinking of this, Shi Nanxi remembered that she had asked about the approximate route to Hongying Palace before in order to facilitate future actions. Now thinking back to the route she had just passed, there was a fork in the road. One of the roads did lead to Yiku Palace, but the other led to Kunning Palace.

At this moment, her mind was extremely clear and agile. She quickly recalled that Shi Rongyue had come back yesterday and said that someone had bullied the Fourth Prince. But at that time, Shi Rongyue was only excited and did not mention who bullied the Fourth Prince. He only said "little brat". He was indeed a bad boy since he was young.

The only ones who dare to bully the Fourth Prince in the palace are those whose status is not inferior to that of the Fourth Prince, or even better. Such people are only princes.

He had to be favored by himself or his mother, and he was a little kid, which meant he was young. The only princes who met the requirements were the Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince. Little Xuzi had the Yikun Palace card, which meant he was the Ninth Prince.

After learning this conclusion, what happened yesterday should be like this. Shi Rongyue offended the Ninth Prince when she saved the Fourth Prince. The other party was a notoriously venomous snake who would never let go of any grudge. At this time, the other party should have wanted to retaliate against Shi Rongyue, but because of some accident, there was a misunderstanding and he treated her as the person he offended yesterday.

But if that’s the case, Concubine Yi probably doesn’t know about it, so she wouldn’t be really summoned, so going to Concubine Yi’s territory in Yikun Palace is ruled out.

So there is only one way left, and that is the way to Kunning Palace.

Kunning Palace? Kunning Palace? Hongying said before that Kangxi had people clean the main hall of Kunning Palace. If that's the case...

"Princess Shi Er?" Seeing that the other party didn't say anything or leave, Xiao Xuzi couldn't help but urge her.

Shi Nanxi came back to her senses. At this moment, Hongying suddenly sneezed. She took the opportunity to hold her hand, which seemed to feel a little cold.

But he secretly increased his strength. Hongying noticed it and looked up in confusion, but met Shi Nanxi's strange eyes.

I subconsciously wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Shi Nanxi:

"Hongying, your hands are so cold. If you can't do it, you should go back quickly. Please prepare a bowl of ginger soup for me. I suddenly feel a little cold. It will take about an hour to get back from Yikun Palace. You can tell the kitchen in advance to prevent the ginger soup from getting cold."

After saying that, he turned his back to Xiao Xuzi and gave Hongying a look. Hongying's heart trembled, and she immediately suppressed her panic and worry, and said with trembling lips:

"Okay, Second Princess, I remember it clearly. It's one hour, right?"

Shi Nanxi felt relieved when she saw that the other party understood what she meant. Although she had a rough guess and was prepared and had her own plans, she would not be so arrogant as to think that she had taken no risks and risk her own safety. If she did not come back within an hour, Hongying would come to find her.

"Then go back quickly!"

Putting down his hand and watching Hongying leave, Shi Nanxi then retracted his gaze and looked at Xiao Xuzi:

"Sorry for the long wait, let's go!"

Xiao Xuzi nodded quickly. As for the "reckless" little eunuch, Shi Nanxi forgave him according to her original temperament.

Soon, Xiao Xuzi took advantage of the fact that Shi Nanxi had just entered the palace and didn't know the way, and led her to Kunning Palace. Shi Nanxi pretended that she didn't notice anything, but she felt relieved because she guessed right.
