Ye Zhaoyin, the daughter of Sima Jiang, is good at dancing.

Two years ago, she entered Yan Palace to get married, and was later named Imperial Concubine Zhao.

Xia Qiulian's deepest impression on Ye Zhaoyin was her dancing posture.

At the birthday banquet of Emperor Yan in her previous life, she wore a red dress like fire, black hair dyed with black ink, and held a feather fan and performed a dance.

The figure is swaying, charming to the bone.

Sometimes he is as light as a fairy in the sky, and sometimes he is as seductive as a demon in the mountains.

That dance shocked Emperor Yan into a heavenly man, and he doted on her for more than half a month afterwards.

I heard that many concubines in the palace wanted to imitate Concubine Zhao's startling dance, but none of them could perform such a magnificent dance.

Because Xia Qiulian and Ye Zhaoyin both came from the Jiang country, they naturally got closer to each other in this foreign country. In her previous life, she also took care of Xia Qiulian a lot.

It was the same in her previous life, not long after she entered the Yan Palace, Ye Zhaoyin was well informed and found her to recognize her relatives.

Xia Qiulian changed into her clothes without haste, and the door opened a gap, and at a glance, she saw a slender and gentle woman in red in front of the hall, her back was facing her, her shoulders were trembling slightly, and the silver bell A crisp smile entered his ears.

Ye Zhaoyin was talking with Qingyuan and Luruan, who were still blocking her from entering the room just now, her words were approachable without any airs.

"I have been away from Jiang Guo for two years, and I have forgotten the taste of the pastries in my hometown. I also asked Yuchu to make a few pastries that I used to eat when I was young, but no matter how similar they are, the taste is not right."

The woman chuckled twice, although with a smile, there seemed to be some melancholy and homesickness in her words.

"In the green mandarin duck pack, there is a box of dragon beard cake, which was made by the master of Yunxiang Pavilion in Beijing. If you don't mind it, you can take it and taste it, and see if it is still the taste in your memory."

Lu Ruan was clever, and after hearing what Ye Zhaoyin said, she quickly sold Qing Yuan.

"If the little girl Qingyuan is willing..."

Ye Zhaoyin smiled and bent a pair of fox eyes, and looked at Qing Yuan who was staring at Lv Ruan with a smile.

What she meant was almost on the table.

Qingyuan didn't dare to refuse, even if she was reluctant in her heart, she could only bow her head and agree.

The sound of pushing the door alarmed several people in front of the hall, and Ye Zhaoyin turned around quickly.

Xia Qiulian was dressed in Tsing Yi, her pale complexion was a little flushed by the smog, the tips of her black hair were still a little damp, and even her usually cold eyes were a little warm.

"Sister Xia, do you still recognize me?"

Seeing Xia Qiulian appearing, Ye Zhaoyin smiled lightly and walked over quickly, the tassels hanging from the golden hairpin on her bun were tangled together.

Ye Zhaoyin not only called out to be affectionate, but also was very affectionate with his body. He nimbly grabbed Xia Qiulian's wrist, with a bright smile on his face, and leaned over like that.

"Qiu Lian has met your empress."

Xia Qiulian slumped slightly, took half a step back, and pulled away Ye Zhaoyin's hand by asking An to remain calm.

"Sister Xia is so polite, maybe she really forgot who I am."

Ye Zhaoyin withdrew her hand as if a little disappointed.

"Qiu Lian just entered the palace today, I don't know when I was lucky enough to meet your empress."

Xia Qiulian lowered her head slightly, her tone calm.

"A few years ago in Jinghe Tower, I met Sister Xia by chance. When I first saw her, I admired Sister Xia. I always wanted to make friends with Sister Xia. It's a pity that I came to Yan Kingdom not long after. , I never had time to get to know Sister Xia."

"I never thought that I would learn that sister Xia is going to enter the Yan Palace. I look forward to it day and night, and I finally hope that sister Xia will come. Don't you think that I am reckless and frivolous."

Ye Zhaoyin spoke earnestly, and a look of happiness appeared on her charming and enchanting face.

But that hand sneaked over again and covered Xia Qiulian's.

"Sister Xia, don't you think you and I are destined?"

Ye Zhaoyin frowned with a smile, and leaned over again, sniffing at Xia Qiulian.

Qing Yuan and Lv Ruan looked at the lady who didn't know the title, and they were about to stick to the young lady, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay.

The two little maids who followed Ye Zhaoyin were not surprised, they stood respectfully aside, their expressions never changing.

Naturally, their mothers know better than anyone else.

Not to mention the beautiful concubines in this palace, even the somewhat handsome maids have been "badly handed down" by Ye Zhaoyin.

Besides dancing, their mother has another hobby, which is to tease other women.

The pretty ones went up and stroked and boasted, their mouths seemed to be smeared with honey, even if they surpassed, they rarely offended others.

"Thank you, Ma'am, for always thinking about Qiu Lian."

Xia Qiulian's words were still polite, and her face never changed a bit.

"Sister Xia's beautiful face is always tense, if she just smiles, she will surely captivate thousands of people."

Ye Zhaoyin's eyebrows and eyes were curved, but the smile on the corner of her lips was slightly twitchy, and her pair of dexterous white and tender hands were eager to grab Xia Qiulian's waist.

"It turns out that the imperial concubine is in Lulan Palace, and His Majesty sent someone to look for the imperial concubine."

A clear and somewhat cold voice came from outside the hall, and before anyone was seen, the voice became clearer and floated into the hall.

Ye Zhaoyin's face changed with a charming smile, and she immediately took back the hand on Xia Qiulian's waist. She snorted softly, as if she was a little dissatisfied.

"The last general, Li Fengyou, was ordered by Her Royal Highness to come to greet Miss Xia."

Wearing a black bunt, the solemn-looking woman walked in step by step calmly.

I saw that the woman was tall and thin, with a delicate face, her black hair was tied up behind her head, and she had a long sword on her waist.

Her face was condensed, her eyebrows and eyes were heroic and unfeminine, and her eyes were surprisingly bright.

Swords are strictly prohibited in the palace, and no one has the privilege except for the imperial guards who patrol the palace.

But the woman who walked in had a long sword on her waist.What she was wearing was neither the military uniform of the imperial army nor the dress of a female officer, but a neat bunt, not like a person in the palace, but like a person from the outside world.

"Li Chubai, why don't you stay by His Highness's side and come out to scare people."

Ye Zhaoyin snorted coldly, and glanced at Li Fengyou with a bit of disdain and annoyance.

"Miss."

Ye Zhaoyin's maid pulled her sleeve calmly, reminding her.

Xia Qiulian couldn't be more familiar with this woman in a different dress with a long sword on her waist.

Li Fengyou, formerly known as Chubai, is the personal bodyguard of Princess Yangong and the deputy commander of the imperial army of Yangong.

Although she is a woman, she has won the trust of the royal family. Not only can she wear a sword in the palace at will, she can even mobilize thousands of imperial troops.

"Didn't you say the end of the future? By the order of His Highness, I came to greet Miss Xia."

Li Fengyou frowned slightly, looking displeased, but the tone he spoke to Ye Zhaoyin could be considered soft.

"How does Your Highness know Sister Xia?"

Ye Zhaoyin was keenly aware of this loophole, how could Her Royal Highness the Princess who was raised in the palace know Xia Qiulian who just came to Yan Palace.

A person from Yan State and a person from Jiang State have never met each other, so how can they greet each other.

"Your Majesty is sending someone to look for the imperial concubine. If you have time to ask questions here, why don't you go back to the bedroom and have a look."

Li Fengyou looked serious, but instead of answering Ye Zhaoyin's question directly, he wanted to dismiss her.

What Ye Zhaoyin hates the most is this person in front of her. Every time she is having fun with the maids and concubines, this person always appears at an inappropriate time, and with various excuses, the troublemakers break up.

I don't know what the purpose is.

But she couldn't afford to offend this royal celebrity, so she could only bear it every time.

"Hmph, I will go back when I go back, every time I see you, I will make Ben Gong unhappy."

This time was no exception, Ye Zhaoyin was unwilling in every possible way and had no choice but to leave.

"Sister Xia, I have to leave today, and I will come back to chat with you another day."

Ye Zhaoyin held Xia Qiulian's hand reluctantly, and gently stroked it a few times before leaving.

"My lady, go slowly."

Xia Qiulian bowed her head and sent off softly.

Li Fengyou looked at her holding Xia Qiulian's hand, frowned even more, and urged her again.

"Your Majesty, let's leave first, I'm afraid the father-in-law who is going to the palace to find someone should be in a hurry."

"Why, I'm walking slowly. Does Vice Commander Li have any objections?"

Ye Zhaoyin raised her chin and passed by Li Fengyou, not forgetting to give her a hard look.

"Your Majesty has short legs and walks slowly, so the general will naturally dare not raise any objections."

Li Fengyou looked at Ye Zhaoyin's dissatisfied expression, his complexion did not change, but a gleam of light flashed in his clear eyes, and he unexpectedly replied jokingly.

"You...forget it, I don't care about you."

Ye Zhaoyin gritted her teeth, looked at Li Fengyou's beautiful and hateful face, flicked her sleeves and uttered a sentence, then led the people away.

As soon as Ye Zhaoyin left, only Xia Qiulian, Qingyuan and Luruan, and Li Fengyou who had just arrived were left in the hall.

Even when Li Fengyou was arguing with Ye Zhaoyin, from the corner of his eyes, he kept looking at Xia Qiulian who was cold and silent.

"Li Fengyou, Deputy Commander of the Forbidden Army, has met Miss Xia."

Li Fengyou bowed slightly, and his expression became more condensed after Ye Zhaoyin left. Although his words were polite, the coldness in them made Qing Yuan and Lu Ruan beside him feel a little afraid.

"Commander Li is too polite."

Xia Qiulian raised her head, without avoiding her expression, staring directly at the chilling woman in front of her.

The defense and dislike in Li Fengyou's eyes were too obvious, and those cold eyes looked at him, full of undisguised inquiry and hostility.

The shock and uneasiness in my heart slowly spread.

Li Fengyou in her previous life was also so stern and awe-inspiring, but she never had any hostility towards her. Perhaps it was because of Yan Banting's trust in her, she was also somewhat polite to herself.

But the hostile and cold person in front of him is very different from his previous life.

"Your Highness said that when he left in a hurry that day, he didn't see Miss Xia safe and sound, so he was a little worried. When he heard that Miss Xia had entered the palace, he immediately sent Feng You to see if Miss Xia was safe."

In Li Fengyou's tone, there was a bit of anger that could not be concealed.

Only then did Xia Qiulian understand a little bit.

According to Fengyou's temperament, he probably felt that he had hurt Yan Banting, and that's why he treated him like this.

"Her...how is her injury?"

Xia Qiulian bit her lips lightly, and opened her mouth with some hesitation.

The one who was injured was obviously Yan Wanting, why did that stupid woman send someone to worry about her.

"Miss Xia knew that the last general was Li Fengyou, didn't she ever have any doubts, or did she guess the identity of His Highness a long time ago?"

The corners of Li Fengyou's lips were raised coldly, and his tone was somewhat questioning.

Xia Qiulian was taken aback for a moment, she was actually negligent.

When Yan Wanting met her, they all used Feng You's name.

She didn't even have the slightest doubt or thought, but she knew who Li Fengyou's Highness was talking about, so it must have made people suspicious.

"If Miss Xia had guessed His Highness's identity long ago, then Feng You would have to admire Miss Xia's extraordinary intelligence. If Miss Xia suddenly knew His Highness's identity from Feng You's words just now, but didn't keep her expression on her face, then Feng You should admire Miss Xia's deep thinking."

Li Fengyou's every word was full of thorns, even if he didn't say it, anyone could hear it.

"Qiu Lian did know His Highness's identity just now. Deputy Commander Li said that Qiu Lian was either deep-minded or intelligent. Qiu Lian didn't want to defend herself, but it is true that His Highness was injured because of Qiu Lian. Qiu Lian knew that she owed a great debt , terrified, and afraid that His Highness will suffer from the root cause of his illness, so tomorrow he will go to His Highness to apologize, and I hope that Vice Commander Li can tell His Highness, Qiu Lian feels ashamed."

Although Xia Qiulian was terrified in her heart, her expression was still cold, making it hard to see the depth, and her tone was somewhat calm and ashamed.

Let people look at it, but feel that she is open-minded and has nothing to hide.

Li Fengyou sneered coldly, he didn't continue to question, and he didn't say anything more, he just surrendered like this.
