Pei Zhen heard faint voices, one of which was a male voice! Then I heard footsteps again, and my heart couldn't help but beat faster, my eyes were bright, and I couldn't even control my breathing.

This caused the maid beside the bed to look at her strangely.

She was startled, and immediately pretended again, her expression becoming confused and fragile, "Where is this place? What's wrong with me?"

The maid thought she was dazzled, thinking that she was a guest at the banquet, so she had a good attitude and explained: "You fell from the rockery and were slightly injured. The doctor just took a look at it. It's nothing serious." ,you do not need to worry."

Only then did Pei Zhen feel that her head was hurting and reached out to touch it. She took a breath and turned pale.

At this time, the eldest princess also walked in. When the maid saw her, she quickly bowed her knees and saluted: "Your Highness."

Pei Zhen raised her eyes expectantly and saw the eldest princess's uncontrollable eyes brightening. Then his eyes moved, but he didn't see the person he wanted to see, and his eyes showed a trace of disappointment uncontrollably.

When she finally saw the person standing next to the eldest princess, and the person who was supporting the eldest princess affectionately was Xu Muhua, her expression changed and she blurted out, "Why are you here?"

Xu Muhua smiled and said, "I came here with the eldest princess."

The eldest princess was standing by and could clearly see the change in Pei Zhen's expression! Especially the disappointment in her eyes just now after she glanced over.

The eldest princess couldn't help but smile, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. She asked in a gentle tone: "How do you feel now? Why did you fall off the rockery when you were fine?"

Pei Zhen was slow to react, and she quickly got up and stood beside the bed to salute the eldest princess.

It's just that Xu Muhua has been standing next to the eldest princess, and her salute like this feels like a salute to Xu Muhua! Pei Zhen felt that she was shorter than Xu Muhua for no reason!

Although Pei Zhen was born as a concubine, she was favored by the Pei family and never felt that her background was bad. Instead, she felt that she was no different from a legitimate daughter except that she did not have the status of a legitimate daughter.

So she looked down on Xu Muhua very much!

Now it actually looked like he was saluting her, and Pei Zhen felt suffocated in her heart. But the eldest princess was here and she had to maintain her own image, so she had no choice but to endure it.

Wait, wait until she catches up with the eldest princess's nephew, and then she can reach the sky in one step!

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. The girl is fine, but her head still hurts a bit." Pei Zhen frowned and looked confused. "The girl didn't know what was going on. At that time, the girl was looking far away on the rockery. She didn't know what happened. He suddenly fell from the top..."

"You should rest here for a while first. I will ask someone to investigate. If someone in the house causes trouble, I will definitely give you justice."

Pei Zhen looked touched and said, "Thank you so much, Your Highness!"

As they were talking, Mrs. Pei and Pei Shaorong hurried over, with anger and worry on their faces.

I am not worried about Pei Zhen, but I am worried that if Pei Zhen does something to anger the eldest princess and implicate their mother and daughter! She had no intention of taking any responsibility for this lofty concubine!

"Your Highness, please forgive me. It's my fault that I failed to take good care of the girls in my house, which caused trouble to Your Highness."

The eldest princess stretched out her hand and said, "You are serious, don't worry, it's just a trivial matter. It's just that the young lady fell down and suffered some head injuries. I will order someone to prepare some medicine for you to take back later." I will get to the bottom of this matter!"

"Thank you, Your Highness." Mrs. Pei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that she, the aunt, thinks too badly of the daughter of a concubine, it's actually that Pei Zhen is just like her biological mother, Aunt Zhao!

At a young age, she was good at not learning, and she specialized in learning Aunt Zhao's unattractive tricks. There is no trace of the grace of a lady from the Taifu Mansion! To put it bluntly, it’s just like the one in Goulan Courtyard outside!

In other words, the old lady and her son were so blind that they thought these two mother and daughter were some rare treasures!

Mrs. Pei is here, and of course the eldest princess will not stay any longer. A little concubine, she came here in person because of Taifu Pei's face.

After the eldest princess left, she remembered what Xu Muhua had just said and clapped her hand, "You talk to Miss Pei first, and I will go and deal with some things first." Xu Muhua was eager to do so!

"Your Highness, go quickly!"

Perhaps it was too obvious, and the eldest princess was a little dumbfounded.

How come the things that others want to do become unavoidable for her?

Seeing the eldest princess's expression, Xu Muhua realized that he seemed to be acting too obviously! Rarely, I felt a little embarrassed.

How embarrassing!

She decided to make some amends and said with a serious face: "Your Highness is completely different from the eldest princess I used to think of you. Today, Your Highness is more like an ordinary elder. I also like Your Highness very much."

The eldest princess said deliberately: "What you said is a bit too obvious."

Xu Muhua fell silent.

I don’t know if the princess believes it when she says this is her truth.

Seeing this, the eldest princess smiled again, thinking that Miss Xu was very interesting.

I didn't expect to meet such an interesting little girl when I came back this time.

Thinking of this, the eldest princess looked at Xu Muhua differently.

The hair on the back of Xu Muhua's neck stood up, his scalp was numb, and his intuition was getting worse.

But the eldest princess had already held the maid's hand and walked out.

Only then did Pei Shaorong have the opportunity to walk up to Xu Muhua and ask her in a low voice what was going on.

Before Xu Muhua had time to answer, Mrs. Pei said, "Let's talk about it later. Go in and see Pei Zhen."

"You come too!" Pei Shaorong held Xu Muhua's hand to prevent her from leaving.

Xu Muhua was helpless.

This is her housework, what do you mean by dragging her along!

I thought so in my heart, but I followed him honestly.

When Pei Zhen saw Mrs. Pei, she panicked for a moment, then immediately calmed down, and even couldn't hide a little pride in her eyes. It was as if he had received the promise from the eldest princess to be with Ling Hongge.

Pei Shaorong curled his lips secretly and was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot.

Pei Zhen thought that Mrs. Pei would scold her and accuse her, but Mrs. Pei just glanced at her coldly and said, "Although you are a concubine, you have been raised by your aunt. I, the aunt, have never taught you anything." What are you?"

"Of course it's not up to me, my aunt, to tell you what you did. For the specific details of what happened, you should go back to your home later and tell the old lady yourself! I believe the eldest princess will come to a conclusion soon. "

"With the way the eldest princess is, she will never wrong any guest, and she will never let any guest fool her!" She said meaningfully.

The expression on Pei Zhen's face froze.
