Not sure what it is, but it's very slippery.
Chao Lan slipped and fell backwards, subconsciously grabbing Shu Fei.
Shu Fei was pulled to the ground by her, and the backs of their heads hit the ground, their facial features distorted in pain.
Xie Shizhu heard their painful groans, pulled the quilt over his head, and raised his eyebrows.
When she came back from outside just now, she bought something similar to talcum powder. She added some water and poured it at the door.
When Song Yan said he would take her to the palace, she had already guessed that Chao Lan would definitely come to cause trouble for her.
This thing could make these two people struggle on the ground all night without being able to get up.
Xie Shizhu covered his ears, ignored the screams of the two women outside, closed his eyes and went to sleep leisurely.
The next day, a maid passed by and saw the princess and concubine Shu lying at Xie Shizhu's door, with despair on their faces.
They hurried over to help the two men up.
After a night, everything on the ground had evaporated.
Chao Lan and Shu Fei were puzzled as to what they had stepped on to cause them to slip and fall, and to make such a big fool of themselves.
Chao Lan warned the maid not to tell the prince and other concubines about these things, otherwise they would be in trouble.

Time flies and it is already the Mid-Autumn Festival.
There was a sedan chair parked outside the palace. Xie Shizhu dressed up, went out of the palace, and then bent down to sit in the sedan chair.
Song Yan was sitting in the sedan chair. He was resting with his eyes closed. When he heard the voice, he slowly opened his eyelids. After seeing Xie Shizhu, his thin lips curled up slightly.
Xie Shizhu sat opposite him, too well-behaved, with lowered eyebrows and pleasing appearance. Her crystal-clear skin was particularly eye-catching, and her black and white eyes were clear as water. When she lowered her eyes, her crow-feather eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyelids.
The woman was wearing a light pink dress, with a slender waist and waist-length hair, which made her look even more pretty and beautiful.
Song Yan's gaze stayed on her face for a few seconds, then slowly looked away.
Xie Shizhu was relieved to see that he was no longer looking at him.
In less than two hours, they arrived at the palace.
Song Yan got out of the sedan first. He was tall and slender, wearing a snow-white robe and a moon-white belt around his waist. His extremely pale face gave him a somewhat morbid beauty.
He slowly opened the curtain of the sedan chair, raised his thin lips slightly, smiled elegantly, and said softly: "Get out of the sedan chair."
Xie Shizhu was a little nervous. After all, as the concubine of a good-for-nothing prince, she had no chance to come to the palace.
She got out of the sedan chair at a loss. As soon as she got out, she saw the absurdly large palace and was so shocked that her eyes widened slightly.
After a while, a father-in-law came and led them to the moon-viewing banquet.
According to the regulations of the Yanguo, every Mid-Autumn Festival, the princes, princesses, civil and military officials had to stay with the emperor, the empress dowager and others until the moon came out.
When they arrived at the place, Xie Shizhu exclaimed: There are so many people.
She saw the prince wearing a dragon robe, sitting near the emperor's seat, with his eyes lowered, and the crown princess was beside him pouring wine for him.
After Song Yan sat down, Xie Shizhu quickly withdrew his gaze.
After the two of them sat down, Chao Lan appeared here not long after.
However, she was following the Minister of Revenue. It was probably because Song Yan did not take her with him, so Chao Lan followed her father.
But Chao Lan was not looking at the virtuous king, but at the prince not far away.
The Crown Prince did not make any move, but the Crown Princess had a gloomy face and looked straight at Chao Lan.
Chao Lan did not dare to act recklessly in front of the Crown Princess. She quickly lowered her head, walked to the side of the virtuous king, and sat on the other side of Song Yan.
The officials here are all trying to please the prince. After all, if nothing unexpected happens, the next emperor will be the prince.
Song Yan lowered his brows, as if all this trouble had nothing to do with him.
When Song Yan picked up the wine glass and prepared to drink, suddenly a slender hand was placed on his arm, stopping him.
Song Yan turned his head in surprise, and what caught his eye was the woman's worried eyes.
The next second, Xie Shizhu carefully withdrew her hand and gestured slowly, "Your Highness, your health has always been poor and you can't drink... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have cared so much..."
Song Yan's eyes flashed with a subtle strangeness, and then he put the wine back on the table, and curled his lips lightly: "Okay."
Xie Shizhu didn't expect that he would actually follow her advice. After being surprised, her cherry lips curved into a curve.
Her smile was so dazzling that Song Yan was momentarily flustered.
