The autumn of the Yan Kingdom is not as profound as the autumn of the Northern Kingdom described by Yu Dafu.
It has been a month since autumn, and the flowers and plants in the palace garden are still full of green. Only the occasional fallen leaves seem to announce that autumn has arrived.
"Have you heard that since the little princess recovered, the emperor has become more and more doting on her?" A round-faced little palace maid whispered.
The sharp-faced little palace maid on the side agreed, "Yes, I heard about it."
"I also heard that the emperor gave the purple jade hairpin to the little princess." A slender-eyed little palace maid took over.
The round-faced little palace maid opened her eyes wide, "Is it the one that the eldest princess has begged for several times but has not been given?"
"That's the one." The pointed-faced little palace maid immediately confirmed.
Several palace maids were whispering in a corner of the palace garden, their voices getting louder and louder.
"What are you talking about? Do you want your tongue to be cut out or your nails to be pulled out?" A sharp voice interrupted everyone's discussion.
When the maids saw that it was Shangguan Lafang, their legs went weak, and they knelt down with a thud and begged for mercy, thinking that they were dead now.
While everyone was holding on to the idea of death, they could not hear the verdict for a long time. It was like the prisoner went to the guillotine and his neck was already resting on the execution stake, but the knife did not fall.
After a long time, I finally had the courage to look up secretly, only to find that there was no one in front of me. When I looked up again, I saw Shangguan Lafang walking quickly towards the nearest pavilion in the middle of the lake. In the pavilion in the middle of the lake was the little princess that everyone was talking about just now.
Shangguan Feng'er.
Shangguan Feng'er, who was in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, saw Shangguan Lafang coming toward her in a menacing manner, and she suspected that the person who came was evil.
Shangguan Lafang felt very dissatisfied when he saw her looking directly at him without any fear, unlike other maids in the palace who were just obedient or loudly begging for mercy when they saw him.
Seeing the purple jade hairpin on her head, she felt even more angry, so she quickly stepped forward and snatched the hairpin without saying a word.
Before Shangguan Feng'er could figure out what was going on, she saw Shangguan Lafang holding the so-called purple jade hairpin in his hand and looking at her with a victor's attitude.
It is said that the purple jade hairpin is actually made of amethyst, but there are very few crystals in this world, especially amethyst, which is rare and precious. Therefore, this amethyst hairpin has become a priceless treasure.
Shangguan Feng'er smiled and said, "Since Sister Fang'er likes it, I'll give it to you."
The hairpin is completely transparent, uniform in color, and without any flaws. It is indeed the top grade natural amethyst. Although Shangguan Feng'er likes it very much, it is not her style to compete with a child for a plaything.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, there was a "pop" sound, and the purple jade hairpin was thrown to the ground.
"Who wants your broken hairpin?" Shangguan Lafang looked at Shangguan Feng'er fiercely.
Shangguan Feng'er thought he had seen it wrong, so he blinked and confirmed again, yes, it was Hen Jue who was inappropriate for his eight-year-old age.
Shangguan Lafang thought she would cry and beg her like the palace maids, but she just opened her mouth and said nothing in the end.
Accustomed to being sought after by others, the superior Shangguan Lafang angrily pushed Shangguan Feng'er hard. Shangguan Feng'er fell to the ground and felt a pain in her right hand that was supporting her body.
Yuan'er quickly squatted down to help Shangguan Feng'er, and found blood dripping from the palm of her right hand. She exclaimed, "Princess, your hand is bleeding." It turned out that it was punctured by a broken crystal hairpin.
Shangguan Feng'er looked at the wound, but the crystal fragment was stuck inside. As long as it was taken out, it would be fine. However, she felt helpless: a twenty-year-old man carrying the skin of a five-year-old child was actually killed by an eight-year-old child.
The little girl was so embarrassed.
She smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay." Looking at Shangguan Lafang opposite, he seemed to be gloating about his misfortune, as if he was declaring that she had won.
Yuan'er cleaned up the broken pieces left on Shangguan Feng'er's hands, wrapped the wound with a handkerchief, and performed emergency care.
"Shangguan Lafang, you are bullying me again." A clear voice came, and following the sound, I saw a young lady in a brocade robe with white cloud patterns and gold silk running towards the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
Shangguan Lafang's expression suddenly changed, and his arrogant aura completely disappeared, "Shangguan Chen, I want you to take care of this princess's affairs." After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and left.
Shangguan Feng'er thought to herself that Shangguan Lafang in the harem would have such a strong rival. Looking at the young lady again, and recalling what Shangguan Lafang said just now, it turned out to be Shangguanbu's youngest son, the little imperial brother Shangguanchen who was two years older than her.
He was obviously the same age as Shangguan Lafang, but he was a little smaller than Shangguan Lafang. "Don't leave, you haven't apologized to this sister yet." He didn't seem to be afraid of Shangguan Lafang at all, and tugged on Shangguan Lafang's sleeves.
.
Shangguan Lafang turned his head and glanced at Shangguan Chen. He pushed him hard and fell to the ground. Shangguan Lafang quickly pulled up his sleeves and left. Shangguan Chen got up again without being discouraged and wanted to catch up with Shangguan Lafang.
"Stop chasing." Shangguan Feng'er quickly called out.
Shangguan Chen gave up and walked up to Shangguan Feng'er and said, "You're okay."
"It's okay." Shangguan Feng'er smiled and shook his head.
Shangguan Chen looked at her for a while and asked suspiciously, "Where do you live? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Shangguan Feng'er pouted, "I live in Yilan Hall and rarely came out before."
If you take a closer look at the little boy, he is just like a replica of Shangguan Bu. He has big clear eyes, a straight nose, not too thin red lips, and a tender face that is round and round like mutton fat. He will definitely be a charming and handsome man in the future.
"Princess, you'd better go back quickly, your hand has been bleeding." Yuan'er reminded in a crying voice. Only then did Shangguan Feng'er realize that she had forgotten this.
Shangguan Feng'er pinched Shangguan Chen's cheek naturally and said with a smile, "Thank you for today, I'll go back first." In her previous life, she liked to pinch children's faces, and she formed a habit of pinching children's faces when she saw them.
The little children will pinch it.
Shangguan Chen stared at Shangguan Feng'er's leaving back in shock, turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Liuzi, who is she?" Today, he was pinched in the face by a little girl smaller than him, and he felt extremely upset.
