The next day.
Bai Yanqing, who had been awake almost all night, finally got up after Cai Xing's repeated urging.
In this draft, the list of those who can finally stay in the palace has been released. Not surprisingly, the remaining show girls and family backgrounds are all top-notch.
"Miss...will we have to die in this palace for the rest of our lives..."
Caixing looked at the high city wall and was filled with emotion. She was only a teenager, and when she thought about spending the rest of her life in this small world, she felt... a little boring. That's a day when you can see the end at a glance!
Bai Yanqing raised her head and looked at Cai Xing with deep eyes. Did she really want that little girl who was as young as a flower to die in this cold palace with her?
Bai Yanqing couldn't bear it. She even regretted that she should not have impulsively asked Cai Xing to accompany her into the palace.
"In a few days... when the overall situation is settled, I will think of a way to ask for grace so that you can leave the palace as soon as possible!"
Bai Yanqing thought for a long time before saying this. Although she was reluctant to collect stars, she couldn't be so selfish as to leave them behind and die in this palace with herself.
"Miss, what do you mean by this? Don't you want to collect stars?"
Caixing became anxious when he heard what Bai Yanqing said.
"Silly girl, this huge palace wall trapped me because I had no choice. It shouldn't have trapped you, and you shouldn't have gotten involved. I was too selfish. I wanted to keep you by my side, but I forgot It's time...it's time to think about the future for you!"
Bai Yanqing looked at Cai Xing and saw her anxious look. In fact, she was very reluctant to give up. First\./Posted\./Updated\./New`..Mobile version No matter how reluctant you are to give up, you cannot let the stars be picked up. Just like yourself, you will be trapped here all your life, trapped in this place... you will eat In a human prison!
"No, Cai Xing will not leave you! Wherever the lady is, Cai Xing will be there!"
Caixing clutched Bai Yanqing's sleeve tightly, as if she was afraid that she would abandon him!
Bai Yanqing looked at Cai Xing and recalled all the things the two of them had experienced over the years. After thinking about it carefully, I realized that Cai Xing really spent too many years for himself!
"Caixing, what do you think of the eldest prince?"
Bai Yanqing changed the subject and suddenly asked about Cai Xing.
Hearing this, Cai Xing was stunned for a moment, and then said what he was thinking.
"The eldest prince... although he is a bit stupid, he is very good to the young lady. Unlike the third prince, before we entered the palace, he went to the White House every day and was very attentive. Now that we have entered the palace, he is He appears very rarely. I feel that... the third prince is unreliable!"
In Cai Xing's eyes, she felt that although Yun Qi was not very bright, he was sincere and friendly to others, and most importantly, he was particularly good to her young lady! And the third prince, Yun Ji, seems to be... deliberately alienating himself recently!
"Even you noticed it...hey."
Bai Yanqing smiled and sighed. Bai Yanqing still doesn't know what Yun Ji's plan is, but Bai Yanqing is not that kind of person who just waits for human flesh and blood!
The second prince is the biological son of the current queen, and currently seems to be the most promising among the princes of the right age to inherit the throne.
The fifth prince is the most favored son of the virtuous concubine. He is the one who has the best chance to compete with the second prince for the supreme position at the moment.
The remaining princes are still young and of low origin, so they are not considered as successors to the throne.
Although the Yunqi brothers were of orthodox origin,... after all, it was because their biological mother died young and their maternal ancestors' clan was declining day by day. It could be said that they were almost incapable of competing with the second and fifth princes.
Moreover, the second emperor brother and the fifth prince have both cultivated their own power in the court. But the Yunqi brothers are not involved in government affairs at all! All these signs indicate that the future for the Yunqi brothers may be the safest! This was the most important reason why Bai Yanqing finally chose to agree to Yun Ji after much consideration.
That high position that everyone is eager to pursue is exactly what Bai Yanqing disdains the most!
"Has the eldest prince been here today?"
Bai Yanqing was still talking about the jade bracelet, so she asked about Caixing.
"Back to Miss, Wei Zeng."
Caixing answered truthfully.
. (The next page is more exciting!)
Bai Yanqing looked at the glorious sun outside, muttering secretly in her heart.
At this time, there was a movement outside. It was the palace servants outside, carrying bamboo poles and banging them, chasing something unknown.
Bai Yanqing was curious, so she asked Cai Xing to run out and ask. Not long after, Cai Xing returned to the house and reported back that a snake had entered the Chuxiu Palace and was being driven out for fear of scaring the nobles.
A snake?
Bai Yanqing smiled, she was not afraid of snakes.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Bai Yanqing's interest suddenly increased, and she pulled Cai Xing out.
Only Bai Yanqing wanted to join in this kind of excitement, but no one else could hide.
As soon as Bai Yanqing stepped out of the house, she was startled by a small thing that suddenly jumped out.
A snake!
There really is a snake!
Without hesitation, he arrived at Bai Yanqing's door. w_/a_/p_/\_/.\_/c\_/o\_/m
Bai Yanqing couldn't dodge and almost fell down.
The palace people were so frightened that they didn't dare to move, for fear that if someone wasn't careful, the snake would bite Bai Yanqing again!
After Bai Yanqing came to her senses, she was extremely calm. I saw her slowly squatting down, and under the surprised eyes of the important people, she actually picked up the snake with her bare hands!
"hiss……"
Everyone gasped! They were so frightened that they all took a few steps back!
That snake was quite strange. In Bai Yanqing's hands, it was as obedient as a doll and could be manipulated by her!
"Little guy, he's quite good-looking!"
Bai Yanqing caught the little snake in her hand and played with it.
White snakes that are all white are rare. Under the sun, the white snake, with its golden eyes, shines brightly, making people look intimidating.
"Let's all disperse!"
Seeing that Bai Yanqing had caught the snake, the palace people dispersed.
Caixing looked at the little thing in Bai Yanqing's hand, and she felt goosebumps all over her body!
It is well known that Bai Yanqing was weak since she was a child and was raised in Zhuangzi. But what outsiders don't know is that in private, Bai Yanqing goes up trees to dig out bird's nests, goes down to the river to fish for fish and shrimps, and from time to time goes to the fields to catch snakes, insects, rats and ants... These things are not known to outsiders. of! However, only Cai Xing knew that her young lady actually... also spent a lonely but lively and interesting childhood!
"Xiao Bai...can I call you Xiao Bai from now on?"
Bai Yanqing played with the little white snake in her hand, poking its little head and talking to it.
Caixing on the side was really speechless, thinking to himself, I wonder if this unlucky little white snake can understand!
But a magical scene happened. Just after Bai Yanqing finished speaking these words, the little white snake actually nodded as if he really understood!
Not only Cai Xing was surprised, but Bai Yanqing was also surprised! This little white snake...is human?
Bai Yanqing carefully held the little white snake, as if she had obtained a rare treasure!
Cai Xing on the side rubbed his arms, goosebumps fell all over the floor. She really couldn't like this soft-bodied reptile!
"Go and find a piece of meat for it!"
Bai Yanqing gave instructions to Cai Xing without even raising her head.
Cai Xing looked sadly at the new favorite in Bai Yanqing's hand, feeling a little bit disgusted in his heart! She is no longer the only one in her young lady's heart, wuwuwu... so sad!
Feeling sad and aggrieved, Cai Xing accepted his fate and went to the aunt in charge and begged for a small piece of dried meat.
The little white snake also looked like it had been hungry for a long time. It swallowed the dried meat in one mouthful and spat out the red tongue, as if it was still full of content!
"Go and find out if the eldest prince has entered the palace today!"
Bai Yanqing teased the little white snake and ordered Cai Xingdao.
Caixing stepped back in response.
After Caixing left, Bai Yanqing stared at the direction she left, looking thoughtful!
The eldest prince, or... is also a good candidate!
Not long after, Cai Xing came back and said that the eldest prince had entered the palace in the morning.
He entered the palace in the morning, but in the afternoon, he didn't come to see Bai Yanqing. This is not like his behavior these past few days!
"Where is he now?"
. (The next page is more exciting!)
Bai Yanqing asked.
"I heard from people in the third emperor's palace that the eldest prince went to fly a kite in the garden."
Caixing answered truthfully.
Because Yun Ji always wanted to get close to Bai Yanqing before, so the people in Yun Ji's palace were also familiar with Cai Xing. Therefore, when Cai Xing went to inquire about this, they all told the truth and did not hide anything.
fly a kite?
Bai Yanqing naturally knew what Cai Xing was talking about.
"Let's go! Let's go to the garden and... walk the snake!"
Bai Yanqing carefully wrapped the little white snake around her wrist, covered it with her sleeves, then pulled Cai Xing and headed back to the place where the kite was flying!
Now that the draft list has been announced, the remaining daughters from aristocratic families will naturally become the concubines of the princes in the future. That status is naturally different! Therefore, now that Bai Yanqing and the others are strolling out of Chuxiu Palace, they only need to inform the palace attendants. As long as you don't go to a few palaces that you shouldn't go to, there aren't many restrictions on other things.
This is the greatest freedom in this palace.
Bai Yanqing pulled Caixing and trotted all the way to the place where she flew the kite last time.
This eldest prince really... loves flying kites! When Bai Yanqing and the others arrived, what they saw was Yunqi having a great time!
Bai Yanqing looked at Yun Qi and was furious! He threw the jade bracelet to himself without any clear explanation, but he was still in the mood to fly a kite now? jj.br>
"Xiao Bai, go and scare him!"
Bai Yanqing took off the little white snake wrapped around her wrist, then squatted down and put the little white snake on the ground. Then he pointed to where Yunqi was standing and whispered to the little white snake.
The little white snake was also extremely smart. It actually followed Bai Yanqing's finger and scurried over.
Then, Bai Yanqing pretended to be passing by by chance, and walked towards Yunqi's place unhurriedly.
"Ah, snake! Snake! There is a snake!"
As expected, the palace attendants around Yunqi turned pale with fright.
Just when Bai Yanqing was feeling proud, unexpectedly...unexpectedly, Yunqi actually...grabbed the little white snake and pinched it within three inches. There was no trace of panic on his face, but rather...abnormal Yes, excited! ! !
How is this going! ? Why wasn't Yunqi panicked?
"This little white snake is so cute!"
Yun Qi pinched the little white snake, and his posture scared Bai Yanqing!
Poor little white snake! Caixing followed Bai Yanqing, looking at the little white snake that was about to be pinched to death by Yun Qi, and secretly felt worried for it!
"Put down my little white!"
Bai Yanqing was anxious. She had experienced Yunqi's strength before. She couldn't bear it even for a living person, let alone such a weak white snake.
Yun Qi heard the sound and turned around. When he saw it was Bai Yanqing, he quickly let go. Bai Yanqing stepped forward and caught the little white snake steadily.
Looking at the soft little white snake in her hand, Bai Yanqing was really worried that it would die!
"Xiaobai, Xiaobai!"
Bai Yanqing stretched out her fingers and scratched its head a few times. Then the little white snake slowly came up with a breath of relief!
"What are you strangling it for? You're almost strangling it to death!"
Bai Yanqing was so anxious that she forgot that she was in the palace at the moment. He didn't even salute Yunqi first, nor did he address him with respect!
"Right...I'm sorry...I-I didn't know it was yours!"
Yunqi scratched his head, a little apologetic!
"Bold! Don't be rude to the eldest prince!"
A palace maid who was following Yun Qi saw that Bai Yanqing had exceeded the rules and immediately rushed forward and shouted at Bai Yanqing.
Bai Yanqing was already angry, why would she want to be scolded by a palace maid? Besides, her master has apologized, but she, a slave, is still so arrogant, how can Bai Yanqing not be annoyed?
"Caixing, slap her mouth!"
Bai Yanqing spoke coldly and gave instructions to Cai Xing.
Caixing stepped forward in response, raised his hand without hesitation, and slapped the palace maid hard!
The sound of "pop" is crisp and loud! Everyone in the palace was so shocked that they were stunned! .
