Princess Ru Shuang had been by the Queen Mother's side before. After we came out, she suddenly caught up with me from behind and wanted to chat with me, so I slowed down and walked at the end with her.
"Sister Mu... has Brother Heng really started to treat everyone equally?"
Then I realized: Oh my god! This is the heroine! What did those concubines do just now? Did they openly destroy other people's feelings?
My mind was racing, thinking about how to minimize the damage, when the concubines in front of me suddenly stopped, and the Queen's respectful voice came from the front: "Long live Your Majesty."
Princess Rushuang said to me, "I'll go take a look," and then she trotted forward and called out, "Brother Heng!"
"Brother Heng?" A woman's voice sounded, crisp and clear.
I tilted my head slightly, finally finding a straight line through the crowd of concubines in front of me. A woman in black stood beside Song Heng, a dagger strapped to her waist. Looking up, her eyes were hooked, not flattering, but rather scornful and assertive. Countless thin braids dangled from her sides—none of this was native attire.
Could it be - Duan Sheng?
Just as he was about to look away, he caught a glimpse of the man standing next to Duan Sheng. At this moment, he had tied up some of his hair with a long red and silver crown like the men in his country, and the rest of his hair was still casually draped behind him.
When I looked at him, he saw me too. Our eyes met, and I was startled—it was the man I had run into twice while leaving the palace to visit my parents. He stared at me, and I realized I had lost my composure, so I quickly looked away.
"Yes, this is my royal brother!" Ru Shuang blinked and looked at Duan Sheng: "Excuse me, who are you..."
"Oh! So you're His Majesty's sister!" Duan Sheng smiled generously: "Hello, I'm Princess Shengyang of Qixia. This is my brother Duan Xiao."
Duan Sheng looked at Duan Xiao and suddenly frowned: "Brother, what are you looking at?" Then he followed his gaze and looked at me.
When she said this, everyone's inquiring eyes fell on me, and several concubines were kind enough to make way for me.
Duan Xiao didn't shy away from the question and laughed out loud, "The delicious crabapple cake you mentioned last time was given to me by this princess."
Delicious? Begonia pastry? ? This princess???
Where should I start explaining??? Waiting online, urgent!
There was silence all around. Only Duan Sheng didn't seem to care at all. He even smiled at me, "Really? So brother already knew a princess!"
Facing countless gazes, I was about to bite the bullet and start by explaining "this princess" when Song Heng's cold voice came over: "She is not a princess, she is my - concubine."
"Concubine?" Duan Sheng frowned, and the attendant behind her hurried forward to explain something in a low voice. Duan Sheng's face became colder and colder, and suddenly shouted: "So many people are all his wives?!" The attendant nodded and retreated in panic.
She saw that the smile on my face had faded, and she quickly glanced at all the concubines. Most of them shrank back imperceptibly. Yes, monogamy is the norm in Qixia, including the royal family.
"So it's your Majesty's concubine!" Duan Xiao raised his eyebrows, but did not apologize for his slip of the tongue.
Song Heng looked at the queen calmly: "I still have something to discuss with the second prince of Qixia. Please take them away first."
After the queen saluted, she took us on a detour. Once we were away from the three of them, the concubines began to grumble quietly:
"Why is Princess Shengyang so fierce? When she first swept over me, I thought she was going to grab me and eat me!"
"That's right, compared to this, we're still better off as twin princesses!"
…
The heroine's popularity among the public suddenly soared.
Just as the discussion was getting more and more heated, Duan Sheng suddenly stepped in front of us from another road. When he stopped, he wantonly swung his long braid back and said, "Wait a minute."
She smiled at us and said, "This princess is going to the hunting ground to hunt now. My dear sisters, would you be so kind as to go with me?" She emphasized the word "sisters" very much, and the concubines shrank back imperceptibly.
At this moment, there were so many people standing in the wide square, but not a sound was heard.
She is a VIP now and cannot be offended; but everyone knows that if they go there, they will probably be pinned to the ground and rubbed; but if no one really goes, wouldn't it be a loss of face for the country in front of foreign guests!
While all the concubines were trembling, I remained calm.
Because this is the plot I know! When all the concubines hesitate, Princess Rushuang beside me will stand up righteously and go to the hunting ground with her, and then have a competition.
Of course, she knew nothing about hunting, but she relied on her unyielding determination to fall off her horse and then climb back up, climb up and then fall down again, climb up again and again, and then fall again and again. Later, Duan Xiao would arrive at some point, and he would have a new respect for the heroine, and the emperor, as the hero, would be extremely distressed when he heard about this.
Now I just want to remind her not to work too hard before she leaves, and then go to Doctor Jiang to ask for some ointment to prepare for Princess Rushuang.
"Humph," Duan Sheng folded his arms and looked at us with disdain: "The people of the Song Hua Kingdom seem to be just..."
Before he could finish his words, Princess Rushuang jumped out and shouted in a loud voice: "Go!"
The heroine is so cool.
"Of course we Song Huaguo people will go!"
The heroine is so impressive!
"Sister Mu is an excellent hunter, why wouldn't I go?"
The heroine is really——
???
excuseme?
I was shocked, and everyone's attention was focused on me again.
And I looked at the Rushuang princesses with a shocked expression on my face.
She smiled at me without noticing, jumped over and took my arm, raised her chin towards Princess Shengyang who was staring at me and said, "Let's go!"
"Very good." Princess Shengyang nodded at me.
I just want to tear my head off right now, immediately, and offer it to you with both hands. No, I want to tear the head off the person next to me first...
The plot has gone off track. Not only was I inexplicably carried to the hunting ground, but the concubines also followed me under the rare majesty of the Twin Princesses... Of course, they just watched. If they were kind-hearted, they might even cheer me up and help collect my body later.
I took a deep breath and was sent to the dressing room in the hunting ground to change into a dark blue women's hunting suit. The concubines were standing on the set-up stands in colorful clothes. I felt that they were still short of a handful of melon seeds.
