Princess Regent

Chapter 5
"It's really... different." Wang Shufei looked at Shangguan Erlan and said strangely.

"What's different? Concubine Wang Shu." Shangguan Erlan glanced at Concubine Wang Shu before turning her head away. Women, women, are born with the ability to fight inside the house.

Concubine Wang Shu was taken aback by her look, and wanted to question her, but she couldn't swallow the words no matter what.Looking at the present Shangguan Erlan, he had a strange expression on his face.If it weren't for this face and this body, they wouldn't be sure that the one in front of them was Chu Xianglan.

Shangguan Erlan has been in the top position for a long time, and he has a posture of looking down on everyone from the bottom of his heart.Could it be that women like them who stay in the house all year round can be compared.Not to mention the ten years in the holy capital, she was in the underworld, and her status was comparable to that of Hades.

A female ghost, step by step, sits in a position that is almost the same as the King of Hades. What she has paid and what she has received, can anyone on the ground compare with it?

Speaking of ghosts, Shangguan Erlan felt nostalgic again.There are ghosts at this time, but ordinary people can't see them. If there is no strong hostility and entanglement, they will be led into the underworld as soon as they die. If you think about it, it will not be that simple.If she could catch one or two ghosts as servants, some things would be much easier to handle.

Li Mengxuan stared at Shangguan Erlan, trying to see the uncomfortable expression on her face.But she was so disappointed that she didn't see anything. Her face was calm, as if she no longer had the fear and respect she used to have when facing them.This kind of Chu Xianglan's noble aura made Li Mengxuan jealous from the bottom of her heart.

"Since the concubine is in good health, in two days the regent is going to have a banquet at home, and concubine Lao will be there to receive the female guests." She said, squinting at Shangguan Erlan, and said, "Don't blame me for not reminding the royal family when the time comes." The princess will also be here. If there is any accident, you will not be able to eat it. By the way, your genius sister will also come, and the general's mansion will probably come to visit. How can I say that there is a regent princess in the general's mansion? " After finishing speaking, she didn't want to take another look at the present Shangguan Erlan anymore, she shook her sleeves and left.

When turning around, Li Mengxuan's eyes were full of murderous intent that was maddened by jealousy.Damn Chu Xianglan, that day is your death day!

Seeing that Li Mengxuan left, Concubine Zhang and Concubine Wang Shu didn't follow, Concubine Zhang smiled and said: "Hmph, Concubine Wang died once, she is also very courageous, who is Mrs. Meng, her status is above that of Concubine Wang. "I don't know how to live or die, so I pretend to go to Li Mengxuan's place, looking for death.

Shangguan Erlan just smiled and said nothing, Li Mengxuan?She really didn't pay attention to it.As for status, she still doesn't care.

"A word of advice to the princess, this man, you should learn to be smarter, and don't seek death."

Shangguan Erlan turned her head and said with a smile: "Thank you two side concubines for teaching me, both of you don't want me to die, so how can I let you down." This is life and death, she doesn't have that habit .

Concubine Zhang and Concubine Wang Shu looked at each other. How did Chu Xianglan become so weird and unpredictable?What does this mean?Didn't she know that everyone in the whole house didn't want her to die?

The two frowned at the same time, and immediately knew that they couldn't stay here anymore, since Chu Xianglan hadn't been normal since she woke up.It's not like being bent over by a ghost.

The decision was almost made together, without even thinking about it.Turn around and leave together.

Shangguan Erlan didn't even look away from them. She glanced at the stone table with her slender fingers, and there was still that charming smile on the corner of her mouth, but those eyes contained calculations.

Do you accept ladies?She doesn't like to do this job...

Li Mengxuan and the two side concubines walked this trip, and they all left one after another. When Li Mengxuan left, his face was full of anger. The side concubine Zhang and the concubine Wang Shu were really in a panic, as if there were ghosts behind them.It didn't take long for the family to spread the word that Chu Xianglan was possessed by a ghost, and that she dared to rush at Mrs. Meng and threaten the two side concubines.

People are all the same, if they do too many ridiculous things while alive, they are afraid of attracting ghosts.As soon as she heard that Wang Hao's yard was not clean, even the sweepers didn't dare to sweep it.

Within a few days, the yard where Shangguan Erlan lived was full of leaves, and the flowers and plants were not pruned, just like a deserted courtyard.

On the day of the banquet, the front yard was already extremely lively, with guests coming and going.The side courtyard where Shangguan Erlan lived in the backyard was quiet.

Although Li Mengxuan told her to go out to receive guests that day, Shangguan Erlan didn't pay attention to her.She has always been the one who waits for everyone else to make arrangements before coming to the scene, and asks her to receive them in person. Who has such a qualification?
Shangguan Erlan completely forgot that here, she is Chu Xianglan, carrying Chu Xianglan's shadow on her back, so doing these things is already flattering.

But Li Mengxuan didn't just talk about it that day. She made it clear that she wanted Chu Xianglan to go out and make a fool of herself, make the regent angry and punish her, and even more want to make her natal family look bad.After sending someone to invite her several times, Shangguan Erlan just ignored her, and it was the same for anyone who came, quietly, as if everything had nothing to do with her.Really mad at the person who came to invite her to the front hall.

Seeing that it was almost time, she got up and asked Shuxue to dress her.

Trembling, Shuxue put on Shangguan Erlan's clothes one by one.Both hands are teasing, and his face is a little pale.All the people in the courtyard were released, and she was the only one left to serve here.God knows, Shuxue really wants to rush out and never come back.Following such a master is simply killing her.

Shangguan Erlan didn't go out to entertain her, she was planning to go to a theater.I heard that the Prince Regent in the backyard had someone invite actors to sing operas. Shangguan Erlan usually likes to go to the operas when she is bored. Although it was ugly, she took it as a joke.It's rare to see a play here, it's a pity not to go.

Shangguan Erlan had worn white clothes before, so she didn't want to dress up this time, it was just a drama.

After finishing the arrangements, Shuxue put her hands forward and lowered her head, "Princess, it's done."

Shangguan Erlan walked to the dressing table, picked up the fan that had been put on it, smiled, and walked out of the room.Shuxue followed closely behind.

Shangguan Erlan has never been out of the yard since she was attached to this body. According to Chu Xianglan's vague memory, Shangguan Erlan couldn't find the way to the side hall of the front yard.She stopped, turned her head, and let Shuxue lead the way.

Shuxue held her breath and walked to the front to lead the way.But he didn't dare to show his air, and sat on his own business very dutifully all the way, bowed his head, and led the way.

The wind in the afternoon was very cool. It wasn't that Shangguan Erlan wanted to use a fan to put on a show. It was because there would be too many people and the air flow must be bad. If you carry the fan on your back, you can't go wrong.

When passing by the main hall, Shangguan Erlan heard a voice from inside.

Since ancient times, men and women have different seats at the age of seven, and the male guests and female guests are separated.Female guests are generally received by women in the backyard, while male guests are received by the host or the son of the host.The regent didn't have a son old enough to be on stage, so the reception of male guests was done by the butler.

"Princess, this is the side hall." Seeing Shangguan Erlan stop, Shuxue hurriedly said.I'm afraid that if she walks in, he won't be able to eat and walk away.Not only the regent will be angry, but Mrs. Meng will not let her go.

Shangguan Erlan was not interested in dealing with a group of men, so Shuxue led her to move on.
