C22 Evil Woman Provokes One's Character

For the past few days, all the noble ladies in the city who had yet to leave the pavilion were on guard, because the annual Daughter's Day in Great Yan was coming.

On this day, the capital was bustling with activity from morning to night.

To the noble ladies, the most important thing was the female banquet held by Eldest Imperial Princess. The female banquet was held after Eldest Imperial Princess got married. On this day, it was unknown how many couples were arranged.

Hence, as long as it was a young lady of appropriate age, the young master would receive an invitation to the female banquet a month in advance, including the disciples of the royal family. To the noble ladies who hoped to marry into the Imperial Family, this day was an opportunity that could not be missed.

Jiegeng's invitation was also sent to the King Yi's Mansion three days before the female banquet.

Without a doubt, Jiegeng's appearance had aroused the interest of the influential people in the capital. Apart from the reputation of a medical family, Bai family also had 80% of the medicine market in Great Yan. Even if the Bai family suddenly disappeared from the capital eight years ago, the Bai family's businesses were still running smoothly. Furthermore, not only the Great Yan, the Bai family also had a certain industry chain in the field of medicinal herbs in almost every country.

"Eldest Imperial Princess is really well-informed. My Jiegeng only came to the capital for a few days and already sent the invitation." Rani Yi looked at the invitation that the servant had just sent over.

"This kind of banquet is extremely boring. It's fine if you don't want to go." Shihan was not interested. Every year, only those noble ladies compete to display their talents.

"Jiegeng just came to the capital. I was thinking of finding an occasion to correct her name. This time, this excellent female banquet is exactly what I wanted." Rani Yi and Shihan had different thoughts.

" Jiegeng, we will go out and take a look later. Look at you, you are dressed so plainly, showing off your brilliance like this?" Shihan had long disliked going out with Rani Yi and this kind of regret made Rani Yi sad for a long time. Now that there was another "daughter" who had just arrived, Rani Yi had to use all her strength to torture her.

"An excellent female banquet? What is that?" Jiegeng was confused.

"It's just a group of noble ladies competing over this and that, and then fighting for an undeserved reputation. And every year, they only play the zither, chess, painting and dance. They don't have any new ideas." Shihan could not help but complain to Jiegeng.

"You lass, forget it if you don't have a proper role. She held a sword every day and would shout to fight and kill whenever she wanted. Are you still going out to play? Do you look like a group leader? Don't bring Jiegeng astray." What Rani Yi hated the most was Shihan's appearance. But what could she do if King Yi spoiled her?

Shihan stuck out her tongue. At this moment, the wisest thing was not to fight head on with her mother. Otherwise, once she got into a fight, she would have coaxed her for a long time.

"Aunt, I have only learned a little about these things. I am not proficient in any of them. If I go there, won't I bring shame to you?" After listening to Shihan's description, Jiegeng was also not excited at all.

"Furthermore, I only like plain clothes and also do not like fancy accessories. When those things are inserted into the head and fall on the body, it will be very uncomfortable." Gradually becoming familiar with Rani Yi, Jiegeng's true nature was slowly released.

"You child, this point is really similar to your mother." Rani Yi patted Jiegeng's forehead, "However, you are not allowed to imitate your mother's temperament. This matter is not up to you."

Rani Yi smiled. "Dress up. We will go out and add some clothes and jewelry for you later."

After Jiegeng and Shihan left Rani Yi's room, Shihan patted Jiegeng's shoulder with pity. "Today, I will not accompany you anymore." After saying that, she immediately brought Yue out.

Jiegeng smiled helplessly. Wasn't it just going out to buy some things? Was it really that scary?

Rani Yi first brought Jiegeng to the biggest jewelry store in the capital - Caiyu Xuan.

"Rani Yi, thank you for coming to our store." Once they entered the store, the shopkeeper personally came out to welcome them.

"Take out the latest designs of your shop and take a look." Rani Yi pulled Jiegeng's hand.

The shopkeeper immediately understood. "Miss, this store just so happens to have a new style. It is most suitable for beautiful women of your age. Please come upstairs!"

The first floor of the Colorful Jade Pavilion was filled with all kinds of pearls and jades for customers to choose and buy freely. The second floor was the VIP room. According to the requirements of the VIP, there was a specialized person who was in charge of sending the required jewelry to the room. Usually, the expensive jewelry that entered the shop was only provided on the second floor.

"Aunt, you go first. There are a lot of different jewelry on the first floor. I want to take a look first." Jiegeng was still a young girl after all. Looking at so many different types of jewelry and accessories, she could not help but be curious.

Hearing the young lady call Rani Yi" Aunt, "the shopkeeper immediately realized that he could not be neglectful, so he ordered a waiter to serve by the side.

"Okay. If you like it, call the servants to bring it up." Rani Yi went to the second floor first.

Jiegeng walked around the first floor and her eyes locked onto a purple jade pendant.

This purple jade pendant did not have too many carvings and instead retained the original traces of the jade. The faint purple color also added a sense of mystery to this jade pendant.

When Jiegeng saw this jade pendant, her first reaction was to think that this jade pendant was very compatible with Duan Shuang. When she remembered that his precious jade pendant had always been with her, it was reasonable for her to give him back a jade pendant.

"Young miss has good taste. This jade is a natural purple jade. Its shape is completely preserved without any additional carving and polishing. It is a piece of pure jade. It can best display the elegant temperament of the person wearing it. Moreover, the purple light is faintly discernible, and it also has the meaning of auspicious and auspicious. " The shop assistant immediately echoed.

Jiegeng was delighted in her heart and made up her mind to give this jade pendant to Duan Shuang.

When she turned around with the jade pendant in hand, she saw Lau Yunyan choosing a hairpin on the opposite side.

When Jiegeng thought of the matter of her harming herself the last time, she got angry. But due to her aunt's face, she still did not intend to have a falling out with her in public.

Ever since the last incident, Lau Yunyan's words had fallen out of the mouths of the aristocrats in the capital. Fortunately, the news of Jiegeng and Zhen'an King quickly spread throughout the entire city on the second day, preventing her from being discussed. However, Jiegeng and Zhen'an King's matter once again provoked Lau Yunyan, who originally hated Jiegeng to the bone.

Why were the two people being punished by the Royal Highness, and in the end, he was the only one being scolded? Lau Yunyan was indignant.

"Isn't this Jiegeng's younger sister? That day in the military camp, she didn't look so good. It seems that she has been taking good care of her these few days." Lau Yunyan openly and openly put on the identity of the mysterious woman from that day as well as Jiegeng's.

"Who is your younger sister? You are such a strange person. Could it be that it is your hobby to randomly acknowledge younger sisters on the streets? Or is it that you are so foolish that you call someone your sister whenever you see them and take advantage of them for nothing? " Jiegeng was no longer polite to her and she did not want to settle the score with her. But she is deliberately looking for trouble with me and really thinks that she, Jiegeng, is easy to bully!

When the noble ladies nearby heard their conversation, they immediately realized that this woman in plain clothes was the other woman who suffered with Lau Yunyan that day. Immediately, their gazes towards Jiegeng became unfriendly. After all, as a woman, it was rude to act so arrogantly.

Ruyan Liu did not expect that she would take advantage of her face in front of everyone. Her face darkened. In the blink of an eye, she saw the purple jade in Jiegeng's hand. She immediately thought of something.

"Miss Jiegeng, don't be so rude when you speak. I just want to express my goodwill to you. If you don't appreciate it, then forget it. Why do you have to mock me? In my opinion, this purple jade is suitable for a gentle and quiet person. You should choose another jade pendant. This piece of jade emphasized the temperament of the person who called himself. If not... It's useless. " Lau Yunyan gave a fake smile to Jiegeng.

After that, ruyan Liu went to Jiegeng's place to pick the pendant and found a piece of jewelry that was inlaid with gold. The jade was not a good item. It had many flaws and the gold lining was too exaggerated. It forcefully snatched away the elegance of the jade itself.

"In my opinion, this jade pendant is most suitable for my sister. Looking at my younger sister's clean body, I only need this finishing touch."

Wasn't he using a different method to scold Jiegeng that not only did she lack inner energy, but she also lacked self-cultivation.

Jiegeng handed the purple jade pendant to the worker beside her and indicated for him to send it upstairs.

Lau Yunyan could not help but feel annoyed when she saw her actions. The second floor of this Cai Yu Xuan only served the royal family and the extremely wealthy people. What kind of big figure did this stinky lass actually rely on?

"I think Miss Liu should also choose more pearl hairpins and pendants, or else... I'm really afraid that one day this layer of fake skin won't be able to conceal your true appearance. With more pearls and jades, at least it can divert people's attention. " Jiegeng replied neither servile nor overbearing.

Jiegeng glanced at the accessories held in the hands of the maidservants beside Ruyan Liu. "These are all too elegant. Bring more big purple and big red ones to attract other people's attention. Tears, pretending to be weak or something. Didn't you try it in the military camp last time? It doesn't seem to work at all. " Jiegeng shook her head in pity. Who was more embarrassing than who? Who was afraid of who?!

The pain was poked. Lau Yunyan's gloomy face could not even cover up the rouge powder.

"Didn't you rely on some big shot on the ranking? What right does a foreign country girl have to be arrogant in front of me!" Lau Yunyan did not continue to pretend to be humble and directly criticized Jiegeng.

Lau Yunyan did not have any scruples and started to argue in the Cai Yu Xuan and attracted the attention of the surrounding guests.

"Who is slandering our Young Patriarch here!" A male voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.

One. A man dressed in black and white satin clothing walked out from the crowd and stood beside Jiegeng. He mocked Lau Yunyan with disdain, "Just you alone dare to slander our Young Patriarch?"

That man was handsome and tall, but he had a pair of phoenix eyes. He was very charming.

Being used to seeing a handsome and domineering man like Zhen'an King, this man in front of him undoubtedly had another kind of soul-stirring attraction.

"And who are you?" At this moment, Lau Yunyan even had the intention to kill. The sight of her gnashing her teeth made Jiegeng secretly delighted in her heart.

"I am the person in charge of Piao Yuan's Pharmacy." The man replied faintly.

"Piao Yuan's Pharmacy? Isn't it the medicine store that monopolizes the medicinal herb market in Great Yan?"

"Yeah, I didn't expect the family leader to be so young."

"The Piao Yuan's Pharmacy is the property of the Bai family. That man called that young lady the young master, doesn't that mean...?"

The guests of Cai Yu Xuan discussed and discussed, and Jiegeng once again became the focus of the discussion.

"Why do you call me the young master?" Jiegeng had never seen this man in front of her. Where did this Young Patriarch's name come from?

"Young Patriarch, the Piao Yuan's Pharmacy's surname is Bai." The man looked at Jiegeng gently. His eyes were blurred, but he did not lose the temptation to attract her.

"Welcome Young Patriarch back to the capital." The man immediately cupped his hands and bowed, showing a humble manner.
