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

Today, as usual, Nanny Zhang will give a lecture on palace rules. After that, Nanny Yang will teach everyone how to play the guqin. I don't ask everyone to play well, but I just hope that I can give some comments when I see someone playing the guqin in the future.

Of course, if you want to win the favor of a noble person during the re-selection, or if you have talent, you will take the initiative to spend time on it.

At this time, everyone was sitting in the courtyard. As usual, they listened to Nanny Yang playing a song first. After she finished playing, they asked people to comment on the performance.

After the last note was played, Nanny Yang placed her fingers on the strings and looked down at the ladies in the audience. Her eyes stopped at Shi Nanxi, who looked distracted.

Her brows wrinkled slightly. Shi Nanxi was always serious, but this was the first time she was absent-minded in class. Thinking of this, she said:

"Mrs. Shi Er, today you will be the one to appreciate the piece of music that this old servant just played."

After that, everyone looked over.

Shi Nanxi, the person involved, only then realized that Nanny Yang had called her name, and her face turned red. She hadn't heard it at all just now, so how could she comment on it at this moment? She lowered her head for a long time and couldn't utter a word.

Looking at this scene, the others present began to discuss in low voices.

"This Second Princess Shi is really incomparable to the First Princess Shi. Look at the way the First Princess Shi plays the zither. Not only is she very skilled, she can also play Western music!"

"Yes, if the Ministry of Internal Affairs would not make a mistake and Princess Shi would not recognize a sister randomly, I would doubt whether they are really sisters."

"Thanks to the great Princess Shi for helping the second Princess Shi everywhere, it's a pity that she herself failed to live up to the great Princess Shi's kindness."

Hongying, who was standing by, clenched her fists when she heard these words.

Her Second Princess was sent to the farm to recuperate when she was young. She never hired a master to teach her, so how could she learn to play the guqin? Moreover, how could she remain calm after hearing such a big secret not long ago?

Not to mention that the eldest princess was supporting and arranging things everywhere, she just wanted to make the second princess a scapegoat and bear the wrath of the emperor and the crown prince.

It’s a pity that I can’t say a single word of these words.

Shi Rongyue in the crowd nodded secretly. These people were right. She and Shi Nanxi were indeed not sisters in spirit.

And the other party was really disappointing. If it weren't for her, she would definitely not have made it through the preliminary round. She did everything for her, but she had yet to make the prince fall in love with her, and she couldn't even seize the good opportunities she had created for her.

So he didn't speak to defend her, but sat aside and watched coldly, which made the already "timid and cowardly" Shi Nanxi blush more and more, and her head lowered lower and lower.

Behind her, Suochao Luo Jiahui pursed her lips when she saw this scene. She knew that Shi Rongyue's kindness to Shi Nanxi was all pretense.

Tong Jia Wanru behind her also had a glimmer of disdain in her eyes.

However, Ulanala Hesui frowned. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that Princess Shi was targeting her these days.

It wasn't a big targeting, it just felt like he was deliberately making fun of her when he spoke, but what kind of conflict could there be between her and Shi Da Gege?

When Madam Yang heard these discussions, she immediately looked around with a stern look. The next moment, the discussions stopped and she looked at Shi Nanxi again.

"Mrs. Shi Er, I know you have no basic knowledge of guqin, but you must know a thing or two about basic appreciation. Please listen carefully in class next time."

"Thank you for your teachings, Nanxi will keep them in mind." Shi Nanxi lowered her head, her voice so low that it was barely audible.

Nanny Yang nodded and was about to start explaining the song she had just played when a person suddenly walked in from outside the door. She immediately stopped talking and stood up to greet him.

"Madame Cui, how come you have time to come here?"

Aunt Cui was wearing a green jacket, her hair was combed meticulously, but she had a friendly smile on her face. Upon hearing this, she did not rush to explain her purpose, but instead joked:

"What? You don't welcome me?"

"No, I wish you could come every day." A smile appeared on Yang Ma's serious face:

"But you are the head nanny of the Empress Defei, and your time is precious. Tell me, what are you here for?"

When the ladies in the back heard that this nanny was the head nanny beside Concubine De, they immediately forgot about Shi Nanxi and looked at Nanny Cui.

This person would definitely not come to Chuxiu Palace for no reason. Could it be that Concubine De wants to summon a concubine?

When they thought of this, everyone's heart suddenly became hot, and they unconsciously raised their heads and chests, showing their most appropriate smile.

Even Ulanala Hesui, who was always very strict and abided by the rules, couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster, while Shi Rongyue frowned slightly.

De imperial concubine?

Isn’t that Sisi’s biased mother? Why did she send the nanny here?

However, at this moment he suddenly thought of something and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, she only remembered that Concubine De was partial to the Fourteenth Prince, but she forgot that no matter how partial Concubine De was, she was still the Fourth Prince's mother, and she would not dare to be too partial to her in public.

And she was sure yesterday that Sisi had feelings for her, so it was not impossible that he took the opportunity to see her today through Concubine De?

Thinking of this, her heart beat faster.

Shi Nanxi just raised her head slightly to memorize Aunt Cui's face, so as to avoid not recognizing her when they met in person in the future. Unexpectedly, when she looked away, she caught a glimpse of Shi Rongyue's burning gaze from the corner of her eye, and she paused.

Could it be that Shi Rongyue thought that the Defei wanted to summon her? Thinking of the bold words she said yesterday, she had some idea of what she was thinking.

The next moment, she shook her head secretly. Since the other party liked the Fourth Prince so much, she should know that with the Fourth Prince's nature of being very strict with rules, it would be impossible for him to do as she wished.

On the contrary, it is most likely that Defei suddenly sent someone to summon Ulanala and Sui to indirectly remind Shi Rongyue to pay attention to their identities.

He is the next emperor. Even though he is only thirteen years old now, his intelligence should not be underestimated. She believes that he will not lose his mind because of Shi Rongyue's words and deeds.

Sure enough, the next moment, I heard Aunt Cui say with a smile:

"Sister is right. This morning, the Fourth Prince went to pay his respects to the Empress Defei. During the visit, the Fourth Prince mentioned the matter of the concubines. How could the Empress Defei not understand? She immediately ordered this old servant to come to the Chuxiu Palace to summon Ulanara Gege to the Yonghe Palace for an audience."

As he spoke, he looked at Ulanala Hesui, the youngest person in the crowd, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

No matter how calm and composed Ulanara and Sui were, they were only ten years old after all. At this moment, they could no longer hold back their blushing faces when they were being looked at.

Nanny Yang already understood what was going on and was about to speak when she heard it, but suddenly a shrill sound of a piano interrupted her. She subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw that one of the strings of the guqin on Shi Rongyue's desk was broken, and the other party's fingers on the guqin were oozing blood.

She was startled and was about to rush over, but she saw Nanny Zhang not far away rushing over loudly before her.

"Oh my, my dear princess, your fingers are bleeding, hurry up and call the imperial physician!"

Shi Rongyue was in disbelief at this moment. Why would the Fourth Prince summon Ulanala Hesui? The other party was just a ten-year-old child. Why would the Fourth Prince mention her!

Concubine De must have understood it wrongly!

right! That's it!

Thinking of this, she suddenly raised her head to look at Aunt Cui and was about to ask, but Shi Nanxi, who had been watching her, interrupted her decisively:

"Sister, sister, are you okay?" She stood up suddenly and rushed to Shi Rongyue, blocking her gaze from looking at Aunt Cui, and hurriedly held her hand:

"Let me see, let me see, there's blood all over my God!" She looked so anxious that she seemed about to faint, but she secretly increased the strength of her hands.

Shi Rongyue's hands were hurt by being squeezed, and her senses awakened her. She came back to her senses abruptly. As soon as she came back to her senses, she was faced with the scrutinizing gazes from all around her, and her back was instantly soaked with sweat.

No matter how careless she was, she knew that she couldn't reveal her involvement with the Fourth Prince in public.

So he pulled the corners of his mouth reluctantly, lowered his head and said to Shi Nanxi:

"Second sister, I'm fine. It was just an accident. Don't worry."

Aunt Cui at the door glanced at Shi Rongyue suspiciously, wondering why she felt like this Grand Princess Shi wanted to ask her something.

But seeing that she was only concerned with comforting her second sister at this moment, without even raising her head, he shook his head secretly, thinking that he had seen it wrong.
