Zhou Xiaoyuan's words were obviously very sensible. They flattered both Concubine Jia and Concubine Shu. Although the two might not want to be compared, no one could fault Zhou Xiaoyuan's words.

Concubine Jia's face didn't look very good. She glanced at the nanny next to her who was coming up with the idea, and she was obviously a little resentful that she didn't achieve her goal.

Originally, she wanted Concubine Shu to distance herself from this commoner woman, and it would be best to end up hooking up with an honorable king, but she never thought that she would die before leaving the army. This was the first step that was difficult, allowing Zhou Xiaoyuan to get the limelight first. And his purpose can no longer be pretended to be exported.

But it was naturally impossible for Concubine Jia to give up so easily. She rolled her eyes and quickly said with a smile.

"My filial piety is commendable, and I also like your honesty."

After saying that, he asked Zhou Xiaoyuan in detail whether she would like to go to the garden with him. In the words, he even used what Zhou Xiaoyuan had said before to press her back, saying: "Since you like me, then stay with me for a while." It won’t be a big deal, right?”

How could Zhou Xiaoyuan object at this moment? She nodded pretending to be flattered, but in her heart she complained that every person in the palace was more refined than the other.

It was just a random excuse, but it was quite decent. Zhou Xiaoyuan could guess that if she hadn't said she liked her just now, Concubine Jia would have attacked her next moment.

She curled her lips secretly, and no one around her paid attention. Everyone else was focused on echoing Concubine Jia's words.

Concubine Shu was determined to refuse, and Zhou Xiaoyuan also thought she would refuse.

As a result, she glanced over with an unclear meaning, suddenly nodded, and said: "Since sister invites you so warmly, of course you can't refuse. Sister today

I am also blessed by my daughter-in-law, so it is the best thing to be able to travel with my sister. "

Whoever believed what he said was a ghost. Zhou Xiaoyuan felt weird, but she couldn't argue with anything. She thought that peace would come as soon as it came, and the soldiers would cover up the water and the earth, so she simply calmed down and agreed.

It's just a garden tour, Zhou Xiaoyuan thought, and she guessed that Concubine Jia would definitely take action.

But even if she does it, she can't be so obvious.

There is still room for change. As long as you are always vigilant, don't be fooled and restrain your curiosity, is it possible that Concubine Jia can forcefully pour dirty water on her head?

Thinking about this, Zhou Xiaoyuan became calmer and calmer, while Concubine Shu could see the changes in her expression, but she couldn't help but secretly nod in her heart.

With such a neither humble nor arrogant appearance, if she can be trained, she must be no different from a real lady from aristocratic families. Coupled with the words Zhou Xiaoyuan saved her from before, Concubine Shu's satisfaction with Zhou Xiaoyuan has reached an unprecedented level.

Although I haven't completely given up my prejudice, I still feel that maybe Zhou Xiaoyuan was not as bad as her sister-in-law said this week. Maybe she was just in a daze at the time and did those things?

Concubine Shu thought without any change in her expression.

The group of people walked towards the Royal Garden, talking and laughing from time to time. The leader, Concubine Jia, also had a kind tone. It looked like an ordinary garden trip, even more relaxed than what Zhou Xiaoyuan had encountered before.

But as soon as this thought arose in her heart, Zhou Xiaoyuan frowned, thinking again of Concubine Shu's words reminding Concubine Jia that she had "bad intentions."

This made Zhou Xiaoyuan's vigilance become even more acute.

But even if you take all precautions, it is difficult to prevent someone from being hurt by a hidden arrow.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was still tense here, but on the other end, a beautiful concubine came over. She looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan with a smile and started talking to her.

"Look, you haven't spoken a word. Do you have any concerns? I'm Yubi - you probably haven't seen me, but I've heard a lot about you."

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan was a little surprised.

"Have you heard about me? There's nothing wrong with me, right? I'm just a commoner. Why should I pay attention to you?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan thought this person was here to flatter her, and was about to explain it, but she smiled slightly, covered her mouth and said, "Girl, why are you denying it in such a hurry? Everyone here knows your identity, and you are very likely to become an honorary The princess’s, the first commoner princess.”

Sure enough, she is here to flatter her, Zhou Xiaoyuan thought to herself, with an embarrassed smile on her face, "It's just some luck, the princess can't say it. I just hope that my daughter will grow up healthily."

At this point, the smile on Yubi's face faded, and Zhou Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment before she realized what she was saying.

It seems that women in the harem are very concerned about whether they have children. It seems a bit unethical for her to mention her daughter so openly in front of a concubine who has obviously not given birth.

Zhou Xiaoyuan felt a little uncomfortable and hurriedly apologized, "Of course, I don't mean anything else, so don't think too much about it, Madam."

Yubi raised the corners of her lips and smiled slightly, but it didn't seem to be sincere.

Zhou Xiaoyuan knew at a glance that her show of goodwill failed this time. She curled her lips quietly, thinking that these people were too sensitive and had to think twice about everything they said, which made her feel like something.

But in the harem

, this phenomenon is probably common. Zhou Xiaoyuan shook her head and kept up with the team without thinking too much.

The happy concubine behind her stopped her smile the moment her eyes left. She glanced hard at Zhou Xiaoyuan's back and followed reluctantly. Zhou Xiaoyuan noticed it, but did not turn around to pay attention to this person until Concubine Jia stopped by a pond.

The nanny next to her was quite obedient. As soon as she stopped, she started talking enthusiastically. During the conversation, she even called Zhou Xiaoyuan and others to come over, as if she had something to say.

Even though Zhou Xiaoyuan was wary, seeing so many people passing by together, she naturally could only nod.

But despite all the precautions, he still failed to guard against the schemes of those with ulterior motives.

Zhou Xiaoyuan was walking, but she stumbled over something. Even when she stumbled, she reacted and tried to stabilize her body, but at the end, a hand took the initiative to pull her over. Zhou Xiaoyuan was wary and almost He waved her hand away without thinking.

Then there was a "pop", and everyone fell silent, all looking at Zhou Xiaoyuan, because in full view of everyone, no one expected that Zhou Xiaoyuan would actually push a concubine with whom she had no grievances into the water.

Concubine Jia frowned and was about to have an attack, but Zhou Xiaoyuan was not a vegetarian.

The moment she heard the sound, she reacted. Without waiting for Concubine Jia to say a word, she jumped in front of her. Concubine Shu, who had nothing to do with her, also became anxious and hurriedly Shouting: "What are you still doing? Find some and save people!"

After saying that, Concubine Shu glared at Concubine Jia fiercely. The two of them obviously knew the other's plan, and Zhou Xiao

Yuan didn't want to become cannon fodder, but in the end she became a stepping stone in the struggle between the two.
