Chapter 964

Tonight's Qianqiu Wansui Hall is very lively. The palace banquet of the New Year is already very particular. There are almost all kinds of lanterns hanging on the mountain and under the mountain. There are palace servants guarding each lantern, for fear that the night wind will blow the candles and ignite the lanterns.

Bai Heran saw Bai Zhenzhen talking to several girls from afar. Those people didn't look good, but they didn't look familiar either. I think they had seen it a little during the last palace banquet, but they did not leave much impression on her.

There was nothing unusual at the palace banquet. The male guest was on the left and the female guest was on the right. There were exchanges between the two parties, but they were all the time and they would never talk in depth. It was between the male guest and the male guest, and the female guest had a great time. The male guest talked about state affairs and the female guest talked about family matters on the other side. I don’t know which lady heard something funny, and she could hear giggles from time to time.

She stood outside the hall door and looked carefully. Bai Zhenzhen was there, but Bai Yanyu didn't know where he went. Look again, the eldest prince, the sixth prince and the seventh prince are all there. Apart from the ninety two people who are not in the capital, the second prince and the fifth prince are still missing.

She didn't have the heart to consider where the second prince was, and she was thinking about where the fifth prince was and where Bai Yanyu was. The royal family had treated her like this. Can the fifth prince, who was even more embarrassed than her, fail to take action?

"Sister, why did you come!" In a daze, Bai Zhenzhen jumped in front of her. "I entered the palace in the afternoon. I thought you could arrive early, but I didn't expect you to be so late. I waited for the palace banquet to start punishing you for drinking."

Bai Zhenzhen has always been cheerful and lively, and she is prone to get along with others. Maybe she has made new friends today and is in a good mood, so she even said something about punishing her second sister to drink.

Bai Heran sighed in his heart, it was really a young man who didn’t know the taste of sorrow. Life and death were imminent, but he didn’t know it at all.

But thinking about it again, she is a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, who is at the age of innocence, what do you expect her to know? Compared to children of the same age, Bai Zhenzhen has done well enough. She can even help her carry the entire life Pavilion and take over all the accounts of the King of Hell Palace from the Ninth Prince.

Such an excellent child is naturally worthy of the best man. Unfortunately, he has already chosen a good man in this life, but he will be completely ruined tonight.

She almost didn't dare to think deeply about His Royal Highness Ninth, who Bai Zhenzhen liked so much, could she let go if she asked her to give up?

"Sister!" Bai Zhenzhen stretched out her hand and shook her eyes, "What are you so amazing? Did you be so confused by my new clothes?" The little girl said while carrying her skirt and turning around in front of her, "Is it very good? This winter skirt was made by my third sister. She made new clothes for us. The people from Tianyi Village delivered it early this morning. They said they were done quickly and finally got it before the New Year, so that we can wear new clothes for the New Year. Second sister, you have a share, and you will go home to get it when the palace banquet is over."

Bai Heran sighed again in his heart, after the palace banquet, go home? Do you still have to go back?

She held Bai Zhenzhen's hand, and Bai Zhenzhen was shocked: "Sister, why are your hands so cold? Are you wearing less clothes?" As she said that, she was about to pull the person into Qianqiu Wansui Hall, "Come in quickly, there are many fire braziers inside, warm up."

Bai Heran turned around and saw that Yu Ben did not stick to her side like those who had been following her and kept sticking to her side without leaving. Instead, she stood neither far nor near, and could see her range of movement, and not deliberately approaching her. If she spoke lower, she would not be able to hear it.

She was very satisfied with the current situation, so she followed Bai Zhenzhen into the hall with confidence. She was afraid that Bai Zhenzhen would immediately call her friends to speak, so she pinched her wrist and squinted her eyes when Bai Zhenzhen turned her head to look at her.

Bai Zhenzhen would never understand this hint before, and she would even scream because someone pinched her for no reason.

But now she doesn't know that. She is used to following Bai Heran and seeing His Royal Highness Nine. She manages the Palace of Heaven and often goes to the Hall of Hell. She has some reasonable and small matters, as well as occasional code words and small actions. She has more or less a few.

For example, now, she believed that her second sister would never pinch her and play with her, nor would she think that Bai Heran's slightly narrowed eyes were because she couldn't see clearly. She knew in her heart that most of the time, her second sister had something to say to her.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Bai Zhenzhen leaned closer and lowered her voice and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Bai Heran said "happy" softly, and then asked her in a very soft voice: "Where is your third sister? Didn't you enter the palace with you?"

"Oh, ask the third sister." Bai Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief, "Ask third sister, why are you so mysterious? I thought something was scared to death." She patted her heart while saying that, and then told Bai Heran, "The third sister came to the palace with me. Originally, the posts from the Duke's mansion were only placed here, but I didn't expect that I received another post for the third sister early this morning. Seeing that she was happy, I guessed that it must have been sent by the fifth prince to her. When I asked, it was true."

She said as she looked around, looking for a while, then shook her head, "About half an hour ago, she was called away by Lingxi. I planned to come back, why haven't I returned yet? Lingxi hadn't seen her, so I guess they went to play. It's okay, sister, don't worry, with Lingxi here, no one can bully the third sister."

Bai Heran didn't say anything. She couldn't tell Bai Zhenzhen that she was really worried. She was worried whether there was Jun Lingxi or not. This matter could not be explained clearly in a sentence or two. Bai Zhenzhen was impatient and not thought so thoroughly. If she had any excessive reaction after hearing this, it would be even more difficult to deal with.

She could only pat Bai Zhenzhen's hand and tell her: "Follow me closely. No matter who asks you to do, you will find a reason to turn it off. I will be with me tonight. Also, no matter what happened at the palace banquet, as long as I don't respond, you are not allowed to interfere, even if you can't accept it, you are not allowed to interrupt, and everything will be left to me to handle."

Bai Zhenzhen finally realized that something seemed wrong. She wanted to ask clearly what happened and why her second sister said solemnly. She could not think of what would happen at the palace banquet, because with their current identity and their relationship with the royal family, nothing big should happen.

But before she could ask, a little palace maid came to them with a smile.

Bai Heran exclaimed softly. She recognized this palace maid who was often brought by Concubine Yue, but she didn't know why she came to her.

"I asked Princess Tianci Jin'an." The little palace maid saluted her upright, her voice was neither loud nor ostentatious, nor deliberately carrying people on her back. After asking An, she reported to her house, "I followed Master Yue to serve Master Yue. Master Yue often talked about Princess Tianci's goodness, because the rouge you gave her is really a peerless thing. Even if you can't get the beauty of the Queen, at least in this harem, except for the Queen, I am the best."

Bai Heran blinked, and Yue Guiren sent her to praise her? Why did she suddenly send someone to praise her?

He made a conspiracy in his heart, but he smiled and said, "Some rouge is nothing big, why should Concubine Yue take it to heart? If it is good, I will arrange more and send it to me, which is rare for her to like."

"Oh, that's great. I thank the princess for my master." After saying that, I bowed to Bai Heran again. When I raised my head, I felt a little embarrassed. "I dared to ask His Highness the Princess, do you have ready-made rouge at home or in the rouge shop? They are the types I gave to Master Yue before, but there are still ready-made ones? To be honest, my master is now dressing up, but there are several of them in the rouge. But my face has been wiped halfway, and it doesn't match the color of other rouges. Moreover, my master doesn't like to leave the rouge, so I sent me to ask His Highness the Princess. If there is any, can I ask the princess to leave the palace immediately and get some rouge for Master Yue?"

At the end of this palace maid's speech, it specifically emphasized the four words "exit the palace immediately".

Bai Zhenzhen didn't understand, but Bai Heran understood. Yue Guiren was sending her a message to her and asked her to leave the palace immediately, but it was not to get some rouge, but to take this opportunity to escape from the palace and go as far as possible.

Since the last time, Concubine Yue forgot to go to Defu Palace in order to help Hong, she silently recorded the friendship of Concubine Yue in her heart. But the friendship was recorded, but one was outside the palace, a minister and the other inside, a palace concubine. She had nowhere to return the friendship. Before going to Qingzhou, she prepared a lot of special rouge to send it to the palace. Although it was not as precious as the pills used by the Queen, it was enough to surprise Yue.

She thought some rouge was not enough to repay the thought that Concubine Yue had forgotten about Hong. Even if Concubine Yue's affection was returned to Luo's family, since she said that she would receive this love, she would do her best if Concubine Yue had something to ask for in the future.

But unexpectedly, she didn't expect that she would give her a love before she finished her life, so the moon gave her another love.

This made Bai Heran a little confused about this noble man Yue. This is not the icing on the cake when the sun is shining, but it is clearly the timely helping of enemies.

In theory, people who do not have deep friendship should avoid suspicion at this time and should stay away from her to avoid being affected. But this Yue Guiren didn't care at all about being implicated, but instead took the initiative to help her. Bai Heran understood that this favor was not too big.

If she can escape the disaster today, she will not be able to refuse any reluctance from Concubine Yue in the future.

But no matter what, she appreciates it and is grateful to Yue Guiren. Even if the other party is betting that she is fine, she is betting that her ability can help her in the future. But this kind of bet requires courage and truly trusting her.

It is also a joy to be able to get someone in life who can bet with you at a deadly moment.
