Murong Qi didn't like Xia Qiulian.

Except when going in and out of the post station for dinner and overnight, or when getting off the carriage for a rest, General Murong would come over to ask a few questions as a matter of routine, other times he would not stand next to Xia Qiulian's carriage.

Originally, his tone was respectful, but occasionally he always showed a little impatience when facing Xia Qiulian, and it was inevitable that there were a few thorns secretly in his words, which made people feel uncomfortable.

Not to mention Xia Qiulian and the witty Lu Ruan, even Qingyuan, who was always rough and stupid, could see it.

The convoy has been on the road for more than ten days, and rarely gets out of the car to rest.

The rich and delicate people in the car were exhausted by the bumps, and even the experienced soldiers outside the car showed a little tiredness.

Qingyuan and Lvruan felt sorry for Xia Qiulian's weight loss, so they took a chance to find Murong Qi and asked him to stop at the post station for a day of recuperation, so that Xia Qiulian could have a good rest.

Murong Qi glanced at the two young, fair and tender maidservants with expectant faces, his heart softened and he almost agreed.

But fortunately, he thought of His Highness who was injured, and Miss Xia who had a calm and ungrateful face, so he became ruthless, rode to the front without looking back, and roared.

"Quicken your pace and keep going."

Qing Yuan and Lv Ruan's heads were about to smoke, they turned into the carriage and began to complain to Xia Qiulian.

"Miss, this General Murong is too unsympathetic. Last time, miss, you passed out once. You were not in good health. He was still in such a hurry, so he didn't worry at all about whether miss's body would not be able to bear it."

Qingyuan pouted, angrily aggrieved for Xia Qiulian.

Xia Qiulian was sitting in the carriage, holding a scroll of ancient books in her hands, her fair and delicate face had indeed become thinner, her delicate red lips had also turned paler, and although the expression between the corners of her eyes and brows was indifferent, she couldn't hide a trace of it. Tired.

After hearing Qingyuan's complaint, Xia Qiulian raised her eyes from the book, her tone was leisurely, as if she was trying to excuse Murong Qi.

"It's not that General Murong is disrespectful, but that he is dedicated to his duties."

Xia Qiulian naturally knew why Murong Qi was dissatisfied with him.

It's just that what she thinks in her heart can be easily seen through.

Whether Murong Qi misunderstood or underestimated her, she didn't care at all.

But thinking about it, the Murong Qi in this life treats her just like the Murong Qi in the previous life.

Murong Qi admired Yan Wanting since he was a child, but it's a pity that Luohua was ruthless, and his affection was as deep as Yan Wanting, all of which were wrong.

In the previous life, Yan Banting treated her half-dotingly and affectionately, which often aroused Murong Qi's red eyes, and when facing her, he couldn't help showing a black face.

Although Xia Qiulian was the favorite concubine of the emperor and princess in her previous life, the upright Murong Qi did not hold back her dislike at all, and sometimes even complained about Xia Qiulian beside Yan Banting, which made Yan Banting feel uncomfortable. Joy.

It's just that Xia Qiulian didn't feel offended. Occasionally, he thought this young and reckless general was a bit interesting, and he was always polite to him.

Although Xia Qiulian didn't seem to be angry and was in good spirits, Qing Yuan and Lu Ruan were still muttering about Murong Qi's fault.

Wearing a whole body of iron bumps, he felt that he was very handsome. In the future, no woman would like him, so he didn't know how to pity and cherish jade.

Xia Qiulian slightly twitched the corners of her lips helplessly.

The two little girls have only left their hometown for a few days, and their sorrows have disappeared.Although the journey was bumpy, they still nestled together and chatted every day, which made her feel lonely.

After all, they are young, they have no idea what they will face in the future.

In two days, they will arrive at Yan Palace, that deep and prosperous palace that stretches as far as the eye can see, the one who greets them is not kindly accepting them.

Xia Qiulian narrowed her eyes and put the scroll on her lap.

She is worried about too many things now, Yan Wanting, Jiang Xunyan, and everything she is about to face.

She didn't know what would happen next, whether it would follow the trajectory of her previous life.

She can only wait.

After two days of driving, the convoy finally arrived at Yanfei City, the capital of Yan State.

Although Yan State is in the same Central Plains as Jiang State, it is different from Jiang State in that the four seasons are like spring. The four seasons here are distinct, and the folk customs are somewhat similar to the nomads outside the Great Wall, bold and unconstrained.

In this season, since entering the territory of Yan State, it is a bit hot, not as cool as Jiang State.

The sun above the head is like a circle of fire wheels, and the cicadas on the trees are endlessly screaming.

According to the rules, all the women sent from other countries for marriage will be sent in through the side entrance of the palace.

When Xia Qiulian and Qingyuan and Luruan got out of the car, Murong Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as the female officer who came to greet her arrived, he greeted her and led her away in a hurry, sweating profusely.

The escorting female official belongs to the same person as her previous life, a young and handsome woman in palace attire.

Because of the contact in the previous life, Xia Qiulian was naturally more polite to her.

The female officer respectfully led Xia Qiulian all the way to the palace that had been prepared for her long ago.

Along the way, I met many eunuchs and maids in a hurry with their heads bowed, but no one should raise their heads to look at the newcomers in this line, they just walked their own way with their waists bowed.

The grandeur of Yan Palace is even more magnificent than that of Jiang State. The towering palaces are like fairy palaces in the sky. Even the stone slabs on the ground are much more exquisite than Xiangfu.

Pavilions, terraces, pavilions, rockeries and greenery, almost every roadside has a small river several people wide, with a crystal clear bottom, and red and yellow koi swimming slowly with their tails.

It was the first time for Qing Yuan and Lv Ruan to see such a beautiful palace. Although they knew that they should not be presumptuous, they still looked around curiously.

"Miss Xia, the Lvlan Palace in front is the bedroom where the girl lives temporarily. Everything is ready in the bedroom. The father-in-law and maidservants who take care of the waiters have prepared fragrant soup and food. The girl is exhausted all the way, so let's take a rest for a while."

The female officer led Xia Qiulian to a small palace, her tone and attitude were respectful.

Girls from various countries who came to Yan to marry each other will come one after a few days. These girls who just came to the palace will live in a small palace for the first few days. Because there is no reward yet, the female officials are generally called girls.

After living in the palace for a few days, Emperor Yan summoned Chong Xing.

Most of the women who came to marry were women of some status from various countries, and their status was higher than those who were drafted into the palace.

Emperor Yan will give them a title, if they are favored, the title will naturally be higher, but if they are not favored, they can only bear a small title, living in a small palace is a little bit better than a palace maid.

After the female officer settled Xia Qiulian, she withdrew.

Lvlan Palace is only a small palace, but it is more magnificent and exquisite than the Prime Minister's Mansion. As soon as the door was opened, two pink-faced father-in-laws and two young court ladies hurriedly bowed their heads to pay their respects.

They only knew that the person who came was from the country of Yan, whose surname was Xia, so they bowed their waists and called out in unison to see Miss Xia.

These are just things that I have experienced in my previous life. Now that I have experienced it again, Xia Qiulian is naturally more calm.

She gently waved her sleeves to get them up, and wanted to take a bath first.

In the past, the maids and eunuchs used to go back and forth to serve all the new women who came to the palace to get married.

The women who came to marry were naturally outstanding in appearance. They had long been tired of seeing ordinary gorgeous women, but when they saw Xia Qiulian, they were secretly amazed.

Xia Qiulian doesn't like to wear too bright clothes, she wears plain dresses on weekdays, and the dresses are just simple patterns embroidered with silver thread.

She was wearing a light green long dress with wide sleeves, embroidered with dark green silk thread with a few pieces of emerald bamboo, which were lively and lifelike, as if they were bamboo leaves that fell on her sleeves inadvertently.

The matching dress wraps her thin and charming body. Her waist is slender and slender. Although there is a hint of weariness between her delicate eyebrows and eyes, she still cannot hide her glamorous elegance. Casual and natural, but revealing a bit of dignity and elegance.

The few pieces of snow-white skin that were exposed outside were as white and moist as the finest suet jade.

A pair of clear spring-like deep and bright peach blossom eyes without the slightest fear and anxiety of coming to a new place, full of indifference and coldness.

It seems that as long as you look at her beautiful eyes, you will be attracted.

Want to get close, but dare not get close.

The palace maid and eunuch looked at Xia Qiulian's unparalleled beauty, and secretly wanted to cling to her.

Such a beautiful and unique woman, none of the concubines in the palace can compare to, such a woman will definitely be favored by the dragon in the future, and she should be flattered and served at this time, and she will flourish in the future, if she can remember them Well, in the future they will also be able to ascend to heaven.

With this in mind, the maids and eunuchs worked harder to serve and arranged everything properly.

Qingyuan and Luruan were squeezed aside by them instead, they stared at each other, full of displeasure.

This is their young lady, why do these court ladies and eunuchs work harder than them.

When Xia Qiulian was taking a bath since she was a child, she didn't like being served by others. Every time she finished her bath and changed into her close-fitting clothes, she would ask Qing Yuan and Lv Ruan to come in to clean up.

Even if she later entered the palace and became a favorite concubine, it has always been like this.

The clear water used to bathe the concubines in the Yan Palace is not ordinary clear water, but snow water melted from ice cubes shipped hundreds of miles away.

It is clearer and cleaner than ordinary well water.

Xia Qiulian was lying in the small bathtub, and the bedding under her body was warm and clear stones, which were smooth and round.

She buried herself in the water, slightly closed her eyes, and pursed her lips slightly.

The lingering white mist enveloped her, and the warm water brushed over her body, as if it could take away all the fatigue.

Xia Qiulian was submerged in the water, feeling a little sleepy.

It's just that when she lost her mind for a while, she heard a few noises coming from outside.

First, there was a timid and tidy greeting, but Xia Qiulian didn't hear the name clearly.

She got up from the water, and the soft brocade gently pressed against her wet body.

"Why, Bengong came to see his fellow countrymen, do you want to stop him?"

A charming female voice with a bit of a smile drifted into my ears through the door.

Xia Qiulian knew who the person was outside without even thinking about it.

Ye Zhaoyin.

That charming and frivolous woman who always liked to tease her in her previous life, was from the Jiang country just like her.
