Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

This is how these cousins ​​get along with each other?!

The four people in the East Palace were dumbfounded.

Mei Ruoqin was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. She secretly reached out and grabbed Wang Xifeng's sleeve.

Wu Liangyuan was surprised but her face was full of interest. She even said something to interfere: "Wang Chenghui, don't be rude! This is the female historian beside the Queen, and she is also your cousin. If you have something to say, can't you speak politely?"

Jia Yuanchun was already in tears, but she wiped them away herself and turned around to call the young palace maids to come in and help.

Wang Xifeng said nothing, took a step back, and waited calmly for her clothes to be checked.

Suddenly the confrontation disappeared, and Wu Liangyuan, who had spoken halfway, became like a clown. She was immediately angry and turned to Jia Yuanchun with a half-smile: "Ms. Jia, I am speaking for you, why are you acting like a mute and ignoring me?

"You want me to do the same as Wang Chenghui and reply in order to win your favor, don't you?"

Jia Yuanchun looked calm and knelt slightly before her: "In response to Wu Liangyuan's words, you are only the prince's concubine, and you are not qualified to call yourself the queen in Daming Palace.

"As for your admonitions to the imperial concubines in the Eastern Palace, I believe the Crown Princess has granted you the authority to do so.

"I am just a little lady, I dare not interfere in the affairs of the East Palace, please understand Wu Liangyuan."

"You!" Wu Liangyuan was so angry that her face turned blue.

Jia Yuanchun would only feel timid and lose her composure when facing Wang Xifeng, who would throw punches at her at the slightest disagreement. But after three years in the Daming Palace, Jia Yuanchun had already mastered the art of talking to Wu Liangyuan.

Seeing the two people frozen in a stalemate, Mei Ruoqin wanted to say something to smooth the situation over, but Wang Xifeng grabbed her tightly, so she had no choice but to bite her lip and lower her head.

"Geng Chenghui's attire is very proper. But Princess Zhongsu is also wearing a ruby ​​hairpin tonight. I'm afraid yours is not suitable."

Jia Yuanchun gently pointed at the ruby ​​and gold hairpin on Geng Simiao's head.

Geng Simiao was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Mei Ruoqin in confusion.

She only had this one hairpin on her head. If she took it off, not only would her hair be disheveled, but it would also be taboo for her to attend the New Year's Eve palace banquet in such a plain manner.

Mei Ruoqin raised her hand and took off an indigo gourd-shaped Ruyi hairpin from her head and handed it over: "You can give me this one instead!"

Geng Simiao agreed with a blushing face.

Jia Yuanchun watched her change gently and asked her to wait aside.

Then it was Wang Xifeng's turn. Jia Yuanchun looked her up and down and suddenly pointed at her shoes and said, "The shoes with the Chinese character 'Fu' on them are fine, but the pattern Wang Chenghui used is too complicated and they are even decorated with pearls. This is really extravagant."

If something doesn’t fit, you can change it, but how can you change the shoes if they don’t fit?! ?

Wang Xifeng looked down at her shoes. There were red plum blossoms on green cloth, with small millet beads decorating the center of the flowers. That was all.

Is this considered complicated?

If the millet beads were pulled off at this moment, the embroidery thread would be broken and discovered by others at the New Year's Eve banquet, wouldn't it be taboo? !

Wang Xifeng glanced around and saw the writing brush in the hand of the maid next to her. She stepped forward with a smile and said, "Sister, can I borrow your brush?"

Everyone was at a loss.

Only Wu Liangyuan's eyes flashed with a strange look.

The little palace maid glanced at Jia Yuanchun, got her approval, and then hesitantly handed over the pen.

Wang Xifeng squatted down and tapped lightly on the millet beads on both sides of her shoes. The ink color spread out, and only the outline of the petals of the bright red plum blossoms remained, instantly becoming much more low-key.

"Smart!" Wu Liangyuan blurted out, with admiration on her face.

Mei Ruoqin was worried, and when she heard her talking, she took the opportunity to laugh and said, "As long as no one mentions it, I think it won't be noticeable!"

Jia Yuanchun glanced at her.

Are you talking about me?

Mei Ruoqin looked back indifferently.

That's right, I'm talking about you.

The two people's eyes met and then separated.

After Wang Xifeng had finished cleaning up, Jia Yuanchun looked at Mei Ruoqin critically, but she had to admit that there was nothing wrong with her and she had behaved very well.

Finally, it was Wu Liangyuan's turn. Jia Yuanchun was speechless for a while before she said, "Wu Liangyuan, according to the rules, you can't have phoenixes embroidered on your clothes. You can't have nine-tailed phoenixes on your jewelry. Also, you are not qualified to wear a bright yellow purse..."

Only then did everyone realize that the purse sachet around Wu Liangyuan's waist was actually embroidered with flowers and plants using bright yellow thread.

Wu Liangyuan smiled and said, "Ah, no way? Then I'll change it."

Juanjuan came up with a blank look on her face, holding a big bundle, and accompanied her to change into a new outfit of light green satin robe with eight clouds and bats pattern, three white jade hairpins inserted diagonally in her fallen horse bun, and only a golden sachet worn around her waist.

It looks particularly fresh and gentle, yet eye-catching!

Jia Yuanchun smiled and said, "Liangyuan, this is a very nice outfit."

Wang Xifeng and Mei Ruoqin looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.

Only Geng Simiao exclaimed sincerely, "Wu Liangyuan looks so beautiful in this outfit!"

Wu Liangyuan looked back at her and smiled smugly: "Really? Normally I don't dress up much, I just wear whatever I have. If I want to dress up, who among you can be as good-looking as me?!"

Geng Simiao timidly closed his mouth, hunched his shoulders again and walked at the end.

Wang Xifeng gently pulled her hand and moved her in front of herself.

Mei Ruoqin also turned around and gave her a reassuring smile.

Geng Simiao then mustered up his courage again and straightened his back.

At the family dinner in the Greenhouse Palace, Emperor Shengping and Empress Mo sat side by side at the main table.

The only surviving uncles, Prince Jing and Kang, brought their children; the eldest son of Emperor Shengping, Prince Zhongyong, who had a lame leg; the seventeenth son, Prince Zhongsu; the eighteenth son, Prince Zhongyun; the nineteenth son, Prince Zhongshen; the two princesses Yongning and Yongchang; and several princes and princesses who were usually more favored, all sat on the emperor's left according to their seniority.

The Crown Prince, Crown Princess and their two children sat at the front of the royal family.

On the right side of the Queen were Concubine Zhen and several palace concubines.

Because Emperor Shengping was old and no longer interested in women, there were only a dozen concubines left in the palace. Compared with the prosperous royal family, they seemed particularly weak and alone.

Even though Wang Xifeng and the other three obediently joined the concubines and sat at the back, the room still seemed a little empty.

Prince Zhongsu was amused when he saw the comparison between the two sides, and said to Emperor Shengping: "Father, look, there are too few people on the other side. When the selection is held next year, you must pick at least 17 or 18 beauties for the crown prince!"

"And then there will be a commotion every other day like in your backyard?" Emperor Shengping frowned, snorted, and ordered him, "Good wine and good food can't stop you from talking!"

Queen Mo hurriedly said, "Yan'er is drunk, don't talk nonsense! Someone come quickly, bring him some sobering soup! Don't let him continue drinking!"

The Queen spoke, and Prince Jing and Prince Kang, who wanted to follow the Emperor's words and teach Prince Zhongsu a few words, had to swallow their words.

Only King Chungsun smiled and threw a date from the side, hitting King Chungsuk in the face, shocking him: "How dare you, as a brother, interfere in my brother's backyard? You got scolded, didn't you? You deserve it!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

King Chungsuk also chuckled twice, and the matter passed without a trace.

The Crown Princess put on a fake smile and only looked at the plates and bowls in front of her.

The prince smiled slightly and said calmly, "He was just saying it casually. Children don't understand. Just teach them slowly."

Queen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

Emperor Shengping's eyes became more profound.
