I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life

Yin Ping picked up the hairpin and wiped it gently as if it were a treasure. "Concubine, you have wronged the princess."

"This is a peach wood hairpin, not an ordinary hairpin. The princess specially asked Taoist Lingyun of Baiyun Temple to order it for her. The princess kept one of the two hairpins for herself and the other for her concubine, which represents the deep sisterly love between the princess and the concubine."

"The princess deliberately chose peach wood because it has the meaning of warding off evil spirits. This pair of hairpins was specially ordered by the princess, which shows how much the princess values ​​and cares for the concubine."

At this time, Yinping came over with another identical hairpin and gently placed it in front of Pei Zhixuan.

Pei Zhixuan stretched her head and took a look. She found that the two hairpins were exactly the same, no matter the details of the carving or the shape of the hairpins. Her face turned red and white, and she felt embarrassed.

The things made by Taoist Lingyun are not available to everyone who wants them. The dignitaries in the capital all compete to obtain them, but often fail to get what they want.

Pei Zhiyan waved her hand and said helplessly, "Forget it, put it all away. I thought that since my sister entered the palace, I would give her a peach wood hairpin from Baiyun Temple, and she would be safe and happy in the future. Since my sister doesn't like it, I will prepare a new gift for her another day."

At this time, Mother Xu took the hairpin back from Yin Liu and said with a smile, "Princess, this hairpin really seems to be tailor-made for a concubine."

As she spoke, she walked behind Pei Zhixuan with the hairpin in her hand, gently inserted it into her hair, and then continued, "This hairpin given by the princess is really great, it makes the concubine look really good."

Pei Zhixuan was still a little suspicious, but when she heard what Mother Xu said, her doubts disappeared without a trace. She stroked the hairpin in her hair, and her mood became better.

Pei Zhiyan picked up the teacup calmly. This Mrs. Xu was quite interesting. Why didn't she notice it in her previous life?

"Princess, I have been your sister for many years, and you know my personality." Mother Xu said, looking at Pei Zhiyan calmly, "I didn't mean to dislike this hairpin just now, but I felt a little wronged, so I lost control of my emotions just now. Please understand, Princess."

Pei Zhiyan laughed secretly in her heart. Ha, Mother Xu was really good at talking. She changed the subject casually. She was probably waiting for her to ask Pei Zhixuan what kind of injustice she had suffered.

Based on the attitude he has always had towards Pei Zhixuan, he would naturally ask this question. Otherwise, how should he act next?

As soon as Mother Xu finished speaking, Pei Zhiyan pretended to be surprised and asked, "Oh? Why is my sister feeling wronged?"

Although the misunderstanding about the peach wood hairpin was resolved, it did not mean that she had forgiven Pei Zhiyan. Seeing that Pei Zhiyan was looking at her with concern as usual, Pei Zhixuan curled her lips and said aggrievedly, "Sister, last night was my sister and the prince's wedding night. Why did the prince stay at my sister's place?"

Pei Zhiyan's several older maids in the room curled their lips at the same time. This concubine really relied on the fact that she was the princess's biological sister and never took the princess seriously. She even had the nerve to question the princess about this matter.

"Last night, the prince drank too much. For some reason, he insisted on coming to Yimei Garden," Pei Zhiyan said helplessly. "Sister wanted to have someone send him to Yuxiangxie, but the prince was so drunk that he couldn't get up at all."

"If you want to blame someone, just blame the Sixth Prince. On such a happy day, he actually got the prince drunk and ruined the wedding night of the prince and his sister. How despicable!"

Oh, Sixth Prince, I am not saying bad things about you behind your back. It was indeed you who got me drunk yesterday. Thinking of this, Pei Zhiyan couldn't help but smile in her heart.

Pei Zhixuan lowered her head and said nothing. This was just an explanation, not an account, and it obviously did not satisfy her.

"Your Highness wanted to visit my sister's courtyard this morning, but he felt sorry for her because she had worked hard all day yesterday and wanted her to rest for a while, so he didn't go."

"These days, the prince has delayed a lot of official business because of his marriage to my sister. He went out early this morning to handle official business. When the prince comes back later, he will definitely go to my sister's yard first to take a look." Pei Zhiyan comforted again.

"My sister is now a married woman, so she should control her temper. The prince likes her and will love her well in the future." Pei Zhiyan said sincerely.

Pei Zhixuan's face showed some joy. Yes, even if the prince stayed at her sister's place, it didn't matter. The prince still loved her. Before she entered the mansion, her sister couldn't win the prince's heart. Now that she has entered the mansion, what is there to be afraid of?

Thinking of this, Pei Zhixuan's anger also subsided by half, and she said lightly, "Sister is right."

After being entertained for most of the day, Pei Zhiyan felt a little annoyed. She decided to send her away. She picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Sister, I guess you haven't had a good rest these days. Go back and have some rest."

"When the prince comes back, I will have to serve him, so I won't be able to rest well." Pei Zhiyan said with a hint of sarcasm.

When she thought of Xuanyuan Ping, Pei Zhixuan's face flushed. She lowered her head shyly and said coquettishly, "Sister is good at joking."

Let's go quickly. If we don't leave now, we'll really vomit. Pei Zhiyan suppressed her nausea and said, "Okay, sister, go back and rest early. You don't have to come over to pay your respects these few days. Just rest well in the yard."

"Thank you, sister." Pei Zhixuan said with a shy smile, "Then I will go back first."

Then, she left with Xu's mother contentedly.

After they left the yard, Yinping came over carefully holding the remaining hairpin, lowered her head and asked softly, "Miss, where should I keep this hairpin?"

Pei Zhiyan and Yin Liu smiled at each other, and glanced at Yin Ping mischievously, while Yin Ping looked at them both in confusion.

Yin Liu picked up the hairpin, handed it to Yin Ping, cleared his throat, and said seriously, "This is made by this Taoist priest himself. It contains all of his life's efforts and hard work. Please treasure it!"

Yin Ping suddenly realized what was going on and stretched out her hand as if to slap Yin Liu, "You're teasing me too?!"

Yin Liu dodged by leaning to the side, and Yin Ping followed. The two of them surrounded Pei Zhiyan and played around. Amidst the laughter, Pei Zhiyan also smiled at the two of them, sweeping away all the unhappiness.
