Wei Yuan is already sixteen years old. Apart from greeting the Queen Mother, she rarely goes to the harem on weekdays.

Therefore, more than half of the maids in the harem did not know who he was.

After the palace maid finished speaking, Xiao Bi introduced Wei Yuan's identity to them.

The maids of honor were busy bowing to him and saying hello.

Wei Yuan nodded, somewhat regretting this trip.

If Huan Yu is a major problem, then Hua Qinghan can be considered a minor problem.

Huan Yu's advantage is that he is very attractive, and Hua Qinghan's advantage is that he has a good sister.

I heard that Concubine Hua and Empress Xiao have a very good relationship. With her mediating between them, Hua Qinghan may not have a chance to be selected.

The young man's fair and beautiful face was covered with a faint cloud of sadness.

It would be great if the mother and concubine were also in the capital.

The mother-in-law has a good relationship with several ladies of the Xiao family. With her help, she will not be so passive.

Now that I'm here, I can't back out no matter how regretful I am.

Wei Yuan encouraged herself and walked into the side hall with Xiao Bi.

At this time, the side hall was extremely lively.

Princess Anyang has woken up. She no longer has prickly heat. She is lively and well-behaved. She is held in the arms of Concubine Hua and plays games with Hua Xiaohan.

Hua Qinghan played chess with Wei Luo, while Xiao Heng watched the game.

The arrival of Xiao Bi and Wei Yuan added another layer to the excitement.

Wei Luo put down the chess pieces in his hands, stood up and walked towards them.

"Auntie Xiaojiu, Uncle Tang, why are you here together?"

Xiao Bi pinched his cheek and said with a smile: "I went to greet your father and happened to meet Prince Rong, so I asked him to come to your place for dinner."

Wei Yuan saluted Xiao Heng and Hua Guifei, and Hua Qinghan and Hua Xiaohan also came forward to salute and say hello.

After chatting for a while, everyone sat down around Xiao Heng.

Hua Xiaohan and Xiao Bi have not seen each other for a long time, and now they are sitting next to each other and talking.

Although Hua Xiaohan was not as enthusiastic as his parents and siblings when it came to Xiao Bi's choice of son-in-law, he was definitely towards Hua Qinghan.

She is not familiar with Wei Yuan, but girls aged fourteen or fifteen are the most sensitive to certain things.

This Prince Rong is clearly coming with bad intentions, so brother must be careful.

She leaned close to Xiao Bi's ear and said in a very low voice: "Xiao Bi, does this person also want to take advantage of you?"

Xiao Bi almost choked on her saliva.

Do all little girls have such vicious eyes?

Wei Yuan obviously didn't say anything. He didn't even look in his direction after entering the side hall. How could Hua Xiaohan make such an accurate judgment?

She also lowered her voice and said: "Don't talk nonsense, haven't you seen his eyes staring at your brother all the time?"

Hua Xiaohan scratched her waist with his nails.

Xiao Bi has been ticklish since she was a child and almost jumped out of her chair.

Everyone stopped talking and laughing and looked over together.

Xiao Bi squeezed Hua Xiaohan's troublesome hand: "It was Xiaohan who scratched me on purpose!"

Hua Xiaohan was furious: "You actually have the nerve to complain?!"

Xiao Heng pointed at the two of them and smiled: "Menghan, take a look at these two. They are both grown up girls, and they are noisy all day long like children."

Concubine Hua patted Princess Anyang in her arms: "Gentleness, dignity, elegance and elegance are all for others to see. I feel good when I see them like this."

Xiao Bi came close to her: "What the Imperial Concubine said really touches my heart. If eldest sister ever bothers me about this again in the future, you must speak for me."

Xiao Heng glared at her: "Don't make yourself look so pitiful. If I had the ability to take care of you, would you still be the naughty person you are now?"

The three siblings from the Hua family were used to seeing them like this and didn't think anything was wrong.

Only Wei Yuan was secretly shocked.

The bright and noble Empress Xiao, the graceful Concubine Hua, the gentle and gentle Prince Hua, and the charming-looking Hua Xiaohan.

It turns out that this group of people is actually like this in private!

They were really like a family together, but he was just a spectator.

It seems that he really underestimated Hua Qinghan before. Even if his threat is not as great as Huan Yu's, it is by no means a "minor trouble".

While they were talking and laughing, a woman in her early twenties wearing a light purple dress walked into the side hall with several palace maids.

Xiao Bi didn't like to meddle in the harem's affairs. Except for a few concubines with high status and seniority, she almost didn't know the rest of the young concubines with lower status.

The former Xin Meiren was the same, and she had never seen the beauty in front of her.

Concubine Hua looked up at the tea cups held in the hands of the palace ladies and asked, "What kind of strange soup did Shi Cainu make today?"

The woman was blessed and whispered softly: "It's not something strange, it's just a sweet soup that I learned to cook. Please give the Queen, the Concubine and all the nobles a try."

Xiao Bi was suddenly stunned.

Shi...picking women?

Shouldn't it be Shi Meiren?

No wonder she felt that this woman looked familiar.

Her facial features are somewhat similar to those of Shi Juncheng and Mr. Shi from Hedong County.

Of course, both father and son are too wealthy and far less refined than this woman, but if you look closely, you can still see their connection.

After asking Huan Yu that time, Xiao Bi never thought of Shi Juncheng's family again.

Unexpectedly, in just one or two months, Shi Meiren had been downgraded several levels and became a female prostitute.

It seems that the things that the Shi family father and son did must have been found out by Sheriff Bai.

My father and younger brother committed a crime, and it is certain that Shi Meiren in the palace will be implicated.

Since she has been reduced from a beauty to a prostitute, it means she has lost favor.

The number of concubines in the harem is huge and the number of palaces is limited, so it is impossible to bring everyone here.

The concubines who can come either have high status, have given birth to princes or princesses, or have been particularly favored recently.

But a Cainv who fell out of favor could still go to the palace to escape the summer heat, which shows that this Cainv Shi is not an ordinary person.

Shi Cainv acted very appropriately. After placing the tea cups in front of everyone, she led the maids out and left.

Xiao Bi did not taste the sweet soup, but said to Xiao Heng: "Sister, is this Shi Cainu the former Shi Meiren?"

Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows: "You never care about these things, how could you know this?"

Concubine Hua Guifei also said: "Yes, Shi Cainu did have the status of a beauty in the past, but her father and brother committed a crime not long ago, and she was also implicated.

If she hadn't always acted safely and was quite popular in the palace, I'm afraid she would have gone to the cold palace directly, and how could she have kept her position as Cainu."

Xiao Bi curled her lips.

According to her temper, instead of serving others grovelingly, she might as well go directly to the cold palace.

Of course, you can't say that, the cold palace is not a place for people to stay at all.
