Liu Xiangjun's courtyard was called Xiangju, which was named after the characters in her name. She changed it herself.
Yu Jinshu was invited to sit in the main seat in the Xiangju Hall.
Liu Xiangjun asked the maid in her courtyard to bring the pastries that she had spent the whole morning making.
There are many varieties of pastries with beautiful designs, which shows that Liu Xiangjun is a capable person.
But some people also laughed at her.
"Sister Xiangjun, you are the eldest lady, why do you do something that only ordinary people can do?" It was Bai Luoxue, the fifth concubine in age.
Bai Luoxue's father holds an official position of the third rank and has a very flamboyant personality.
Liu Xiangjun looked at Bai Luoxue and smiled coldly, "Sister Luoxue, you don't understand. Although making pastries is a servant's job, it doesn't mean you can't treat it as a hobby. I just like watching those ordinary things being made into delicious pastries. It makes me happy."
Yu Xiangwei smiled and said, "Sister Xiangjun is right. My mother often cooks delicious food for my father."
Yu Jinshu watched the fire from the other side of the river. She could tell from the looks in Yu Xiangwei and Liu Xiangjun's eyes that Yu Xiangwei and Liu Xiangjun had formed a team.
After hearing what Yu Xiangwei said, Bai Luoxue stopped talking. She picked up a piece of cake and was about to eat it, but Liu Xiangjun grabbed her hand.
"Sister Luo Xue, the princess hasn't even eaten yet! Why are you in such a hurry?"
Bai Luoxue angrily threw the pastries onto the plate.
Liu Xiangjun looked at the piece of pastry that Bai Luoxue took with disgust, and ignored it. Instead, she took another plate of exquisite pastries and placed it in front of Yu Jinshu.
"Sister Princess, please try these. This is Poria cocos cake, and this is glutinous date cake."
Yu Jinshu smiled slightly, picked up a piece of Poria cocos cake and took a bite, then said to the concubines, "Eat it all!"
Fan Yingying, the concubine who was proficient in the tea ceremony, came forward to order tea.
Here, Liu Xiangjun asked Bai Luoxue to eat a piece of cake that she had taken before, but Bai Luoxue refused it and looked angry.
Bai Luoxue simply stepped forward and bowed to Yu Jinshu, "Princess Sister, I'm not feeling well, so I'll be leaving first."
Yu Jinshu nodded: "Go!"
Bai Luoxue left.
Liu Xiangjun only sneered: "You are so narrow-minded."
Yu Jinshu, however, just treated it as a show, watching the concubines chatting in the hall.
The pastries were not poisonous, but Yu Jinshu always felt that something was wrong.
Were they really so kind as to just invite her over for food?
After Bai Luoxue left Xiangyuan, she saw the maids and asked them to go to Xiangyuan to serve.
Now that all the masters in the backyard have gathered in Xiangyuan, more people will naturally be needed to serve them.
Bai Luoxue did not return to her own courtyard, but looked around. While the maids all went to the Xiangyuan, she secretly went to the main courtyard.
Just now she heard the maids saying that the prince had gone out and was not in the main courtyard.
This is a good opportunity.
The maid from the main courtyard also went to the incense courtyard, and there was no one inside at that time.
Bai Luoxue slipped in and went straight to the prince and princess' bedroom.
The bed in the bedroom has been made by the maid.
Bai Luoxue felt under the pillow on the bed and took out an embroidered purse. Inside the purse was a yellow bead. When she squeezed it, it was soft and she had no idea what it was.
"What on earth is this? Why don't you show it to Sister Xiangjun later?"
She muttered to herself, put the beads in her purse, and then felt around on the bed, but felt nothing.
Then she went to look at the incense burner and smelled the scent inside. It was agarwood.
This time, Liu Xiangjun invited Yu Jinshu to Xiangyuan for tea and snacks, and had a falling out with Bai Luoxue, all in order to get Bai Luoxue to come to the main courtyard to see if Yu Jinshu had given the prince some medicine or some aphrodisiac fragrance, which made the prince favor Yu Jinshu.
Bai Luoxue also had a second task, which was to poison the rouge used by Yu Jinshu.
Liu Xiangjun must destroy Yu Jinshu's beautiful face.
In front of the dressing mirror, Bai Luoxue found a bottle of rouge, poured the red poison powder she had prepared in advance on it, and then carefully spread it evenly.
After doing all this, Bai Luoxue left secretly. She didn't know that a little bird was chirping on the ginkgo tree in the main courtyard.
Yu Jinshu stayed in Xiangyuan for half an hour and then left.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to fit in, but her current identity makes it impossible for her to integrate into their group.
As a modern person, she doesn't want to hang out with a group of women who are trying to steal her man.
Back in the main courtyard, a little bird flew onto her shoulder and chirped non-stop.
Upon hearing this, Yu Jinshu's face changed drastically and she hurried into the bedroom. She first went to the bed and took away the pillow and saw that the amorous pill she gave to Song Shiyao was stolen by Bai Luoxue.
Then she went to the dressing mirror, picked up the box of rouge and opened it. There were obvious signs of it being touched.
Normally, the maids help with makeup, and they certainly won’t pay attention to whether there is any problem with the rouge.
In fact, she rarely used this rouge, and only used it once on her wedding day. She didn't use it today.
It's just that because she took the Qi and Blood Pills, the skin on her face was white with a hint of red, making her look like she had put on makeup.
I wonder what kind of poison is mixed in this rouge?
Yu Jinshu got some out and went to the system mall to buy a quality inspection service. After testing, he found that the poison could cause skin ulcers on the face and there was no cure.
Bai Luoxue has such a cruel heart.
However, Bai Luoxue was able to successfully reach the bedroom in the main courtyard, which must have been a plot with Liu Xiangjun.
Liu Xiangjun kept her in Xiangyuan and fell out with Bai Luoxue, so that Bai Luoxue could come to the main courtyard to steal things and poison.
Today, all the maids went to the Xiangyuan to serve, and there was no one in the main courtyard.
If she hadn't been more thoughtful and bought a bird from the system mall to help her watch over the house, her face might have been ruined.
As for the fragrance of love, it is lost if it is lost.
But Bai Luoxue took the amorous fragrance, and if there was no man by her side, she might not be able to bear it.
Yu Jinshu put away the poisoned rouge and asked the maid to change all the bedding on the bed.
The prince doesn't like to touch things that have been touched by other women, and she doesn't like it either.
That night, Song Shiyao returned to his bedroom early, but he was worried about Yu Jinshu's health and was afraid that he would lose control. After hugging Yu Jinshu, he went to the study to sleep.
Bai Luoxue hadn't found a chance to go to Xiangyuan yet. She had just had a falling out with Liu Xiangjun today, so it wouldn't be a good idea for her to go find Liu Xiangjun today. To avoid arousing suspicion, she put the purse containing the yellow soft beads under her pillow.
Suddenly, she had a erotic dream.
But she was the only one in the dream, and she woke up in a sweat out of anxiety.
This strange feeling had occurred frequently since she began to develop, but it had never been so strong.
It was so strong that she had no way to control it or resolve it by herself.
Bai Luoxue got up and found some water on the table to drink, but there was nothing else she could do.
"Your Majesty..."
Bai Luoxue thought of the prince's handsome face. How great it would be if the prince was in her room at this moment!
