Xue Dingwei did not come to this welcoming banquet.

As the representative of the Xue family, Xue Mei shivered in fear, but she did not dare to stand up for the concubine.

She didn't want to be broken by Jingxihou!

Xiao Yi looked out of the bead curtain and drank: "What are Jiaojiao doing outside? Come in."

Nan Baoyi, who was named, trembled all over.

She took a deep breath and slowly stepped into the hall.

Everyone looked at it subconsciously.

She thought she had become a lame girl, with her hands folded on her chest, and she was full of lotus while walking, with a high manner. She was obviously only passing through the brightly lit hall, but she seemed to be walking on the nine palaces.

The so-called lame leg rumors are self-defeating.

The little girl of the Nan family is still unparalleled in glory.

Those who are waiting to see jokes are disappointed.

Xue Mei stared at Nan Yan in disgust, "Didn't you say that she has lame legs?"

Nan Yan's face was pale and speechless.

Cheng Deyu also looked unhappy, "Yan'er, Jiaojiao is obviously healthy, how can you say in public that she is lame? Do you know how much dirty her reputation will be caused by such nonsense?!"

Nan Yan tightly squeezed the embroidered handkerchief.

The inch-long nails almost pierce the flesh and blood.

Cheng Deyu is really hypocritical. When he broke the engagement, why did he ignore Nan Baoyi's reputation?

Now that I can’t ask for it, I’m concerned about her reputation!

She stared at the shining girl, and the jealousy and unwillingness in her eyes were almost gushing out, looking extremely hatred.

However, she did not dare to contradict Cheng Deyu and Xue Mei.

"I was reckless." Her eyes were filled with tears, "Brother Cheng, sister of the Xue family, don't blame me, I was also misled by Jiaojiao..."

Xia Minghui sat opposite the round table and blinked at Nanyan.

Nan Yan lowered her head and sat next to her.

"A opponent with a high position and a wealth of backgrounds is not worthy of fear. A opponent who is more cruel to oneself than others is worthy of fear."

Xia Minghui gently waved the round fan, "Nan Baoyi was so injured. In just over a month, she could actually recover to this level. It can be seen that she was practicing her gait very hard in private. It is said that the girl from the Nan family is cute and stupid. Why do I think that the world underestimated her?"

Nan Yan said nothing.

She gently wiped the blood stains on her palm with an embroidered handkerchief, and her little face was still pale.

"The imperial envoy has arrived in Jinguan City. The nursery rhyme we prepared can come in handy." Xia Minghui said again, "I want all the children in Shu County to learn that nursery rhyme."

"Is there a arrangement for the eminent monk to 'explain' this nursery rhyme for the imperial envoy?" Nan Yan asked.

"Nature. Zhennan Temple outside Jinguan City has been in full swing for hundreds of years. My father has had a good relationship with the abbot of the host, and he has promised to do things for us. Everything is ready, just waiting for the nursery rhymes to spread to the ears of the imperial envoy."

Nan Yan nodded slightly.

Thinking of the "children's rhyme" she compiled, her gloomy mood couldn't help but clear up a little.

Xie Chong's daughter lives in Jincheng and wears treasure clothes;

Evil worships girls, drinks blood, and eats young babies;

Evil worships the girl, disasters come from heaven, and he is a thousand miles away...

She stared at Nan Baoyi, and a strange smile gradually rose by her lips.

The banquet has not yet begun.

The so-called imperial envoy is still missing.

Nan Baoyi sat obediently beside Xiao Yi.

In the hall, Xue Qin fainted in pain and blood flowed all over the ground.

The doctor was busy bandaging her wounds. The scene was bloody and uncomfortable.

Seeing that she was uncomfortable, Xiao Yi handed her a cup of watermelon juice, "I put the crumbs of broken ice in the early summer, taste it?"

Nan Baoyi took it.

She looked at the thick red watermelon juice and then looked at the blood on the ground.

She endured the disgust and stroked her chest, "Second brother, I'll go to the west room."

Xiao Yi watched her leave.

He raised his eyebrows and slowly drank half a cup of watermelon juice.

It's obviously delicious...

Jinyu Mantang is the most majestic and luxurious restaurant in Jinguan City.

The banquet is set in the hall on the fifth floor. Through the corridor, it is the rockery flowing water inside. The gold foil screens present the artistic conception. The antique calligraphy and paintings are full of charm, and the scenery is excellent.

Nan Baoyi came out of the west room and saw a red painted pavilion built by someone next to the rockery.

Deep purple veils draped on six sides of the pavilion.

In the veil, there was a shadow leaning against a man, drinking alone at the rockery and flowing water.

Nan Baoyi stared blankly.

The window lattice is wide and the moon is full tonight.

The bloody moonlight covered the pavilion with a layer of hazy blood red, like a spreading nightmare, and it was difficult to reach the end of dawn.

The night wind blew gently, blowing the veil through the rolled eaves.

The man leaning in the pavilion was wearing a rippled official robe with a dark blue embroidered smoke. The black leather belt around his waist stretched out a tall figure, his eyes slightly closed, his nose bridge was high, and his lips were red and white.

He wore a string of ebony beads between his neck, put one hand on the chair seat, and his ring finger and little finger were wearing long golden armor covers, with exquisite and precious relief patterns.

Nan Baoyi was like a devil, slowly retreating step by step.

Gu Chongshan...

It turned out that the imperial envoy who came to Shu County this time was the governor of the West Factory, Gu Chongshan...

The eunuch in the palace was in a sinister and cruel manner. Even if the prime minister met, he had to respectfully say "Nine Thousand Years".

He was the only person in Shengjing City who could compete with powerful ministers in his previous life.

In her previous life, she lived because of Gu Chongshan and died because of Gu Chongshan.

When she first met Gu Chongshan, she practiced palace steps in the palace alley.

But somehow, the palace maids and eunuchs who like to bully her on weekdays knew about it.

They ran over to watch her laugh at her, and she talked back, and they punched her.

She was beaten to the point of blood, but she still wanted to survive.

She crawled from the winding palace alley little by little towards the direction of the Imperial Hospital, with long blood stains behind her, which was shocking.

It was also the season of early summer.

It was raining heavily, and she crawled towards the Imperial Hospital in the rain.

When she climbed to the end of the palace lane, she felt that she was about to die.

Next to the red-lacquered palace gate in the palace alley, there are two pots of peony flowers.

She stretched out her hand, picked a few petals tremblingly, and put them on the disfigured half of her face in the rain, thinking that even if she was in such a downfall, she would die beautifully.

"Oh……"

A low laughter came from behind.

She raised her head in a daze.

Jiu Qiansui, with a sinister eyebrow and eyes, had a clean official robe, holding a paper umbrella, and looked at her from a high place, "Why do you pick the flowers in the palace?"

She was about to die, so she was not afraid of nine thousand years old.

Her eyes were dissipated: "I'm going to die, put the petals on my cheeks, and I'm so beautiful."

Perhaps he had never seen a palace maid who loved beauty like her, so he said, "What's the name?"

"Nan Baoyi. My mother said, I hope someone will take me like a pearl or a treasure and have no worries about food and clothing for my whole life."

Gu Chongshan squatted down on one knee.

He picked up the petals on her cheeks and admired the wounds of the flesh turning outwards, "You are so depressed, no one will treat you like a pearl or a treasure."

The rainstorm is like a storm.

Her tears immediately rolled down.

No...

There was a family treating her like a jewelry, but she didn't cherish her...

Just at this moment, the sedan chair of the powerful minister passed by slowly.

He opened the curtain with his slender fingertips. He didn't look at her, and his voice was extremely indifferent: "Nine Thousand Years old, are you interested in this palace maid?"

"I was not interested in it before, but now I am interested." Gu Chongshan stood with an umbrella, "Is the imperial master interested in her?"

She lay in the rain. Although she knew she was shameless, she still hoped that her second brother would save her life.

However, the powerful ministers never looked at her.

He coldly put down the curtain of the sedan chair and headed towards the other end of the palace alley.
