Su Xiaoxiao really didn't intend to go to Princess Jingning's side for a meal.

She gave Princess Jingning snacks purely to thank Princess Jingning for lending her sedan chair yesterday.

Moreover, just in order not to cause some beautiful misunderstandings, Su Xiaoxiao didn't give it face to face.

Unexpectedly, it was still over-interpreted by Princess Jingning.

Kunning Palace is the Queen's residence, but not everyone is qualified to see the Queen, even Princess Jingning's classmate may not be able to be summoned by the Queen.

Of course, the queen was not here today, she went to the empress dowager's bedroom.

The two had dinner in Princess Jingning's bedroom.

The palace man came over with a basin and a towel for the two to wash their hands.

After Princess Jingning had washed, she hesitated for a moment, raised her hand and gently lifted her veil.

She looks... ugly.

She has always been very clear in her heart, but she doesn't like to expose her flaws to others.

She regretted bringing her classmates over for dinner now.

She swore that if this little girl dared to show even a hint of sarcasm, she would have someone beat her out!

Thinking of this, she turned her vigilant eyes to Su Xiaoxiao.

Unexpectedly, Su Xiaoxiao didn't look at her at all, but... stared straight at the food on the table... she was almost drooling.

There is no way, the fat man is hungry quickly.

"His Royal Highness Jing Ning, can I eat?" Su Xiaoxiao asked her.

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes were clean and pure, without any strangeness.

For a moment, Princess Jingning wondered if she hadn't taken off her veil——

She quickly touched her face.

"What's wrong with you?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

After confirming that Su Xiaoxiao really didn't care about her appearance, Princess Jingning calmed down and said to Su Xiaoxiao, "No, let's eat."

The food in Kunning Palace is quite rich, which is incomparable to the food in Gong Xue.

Su Xiaoxiao was very hungry.

She doesn't know palace rules, but she has basic etiquette.

After Jing Ning Gong took the initiative to use the chopsticks, she began to hold up the chopsticks to eat.

Princess Jingning used to have many close friends in her boudoir, commonly known as handkerchief handover.

They have a close relationship with Princess Jingning, and treat Princess Jingning wholeheartedly.

Princess Jingning is not stingy with her kindness.

It wasn't until one day that she overheard them laughing at herself behind her back that she realized that they were all pretending to be nice to her.

If she wasn't the queen's daughter, or the princess born in the first place, they wouldn't be willing to say a word to her at all.

From Princess Jingning's point of view, Su Xiaoxiao probably did the same.

And the reason why she didn't refuse Su Xiaoxiao's "curry" was purely because Su Xiaoxiao was a little fat man, came from the common people, was neglected by others, and had a bit of sympathy with her.

"You don't have to restrain yourself..."

Princess Jingning was about to remind Su Xiaoxiao not to obey the palace rules, but to eat with confidence and boldly, but then she was stunned.

"Huh?" Su Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked at her.

Su Xiaoxiao just bit into a glutinous meatball, her cheeks were bulging, and she looked a little cute.

The palace people hid their faces and laughed.

Princess Jingning cleared her throat: "It's okay, you eat."

Su Xiaoxiao swallowed the balls: "Oh, you can eat too, you're welcome."

Princess Jingning: "..."

Princess Jingning ate half a bowl of rice more than usual. There was no other reason. Su Xiaoxiao's food tasted so good that she couldn't hold back.

"Your Highness, it's time to apply the medicine."

The little maid came over with a bottle of ointment.

The two have finished eating.

Princess Jingning called a little eunuch: "Take Miss Su to the wing to rest."

"Yes." The little eunuch agreed, and bowed to Su Xiaoxiao, "Miss Su, this way please."

"Wait a moment." Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking to the little eunuch, then turned to look at Princess Jingning, "What medicine do you want to apply?"

The little maid hesitated to speak.

Is this something you can ask?

Princess Jingning hesitated for a moment, then said: "The medicine on the face."

"Oh." Su Xiaoxiao took out a bottle of "Bezoar Jiedu Pills" from her purse, "Try this."

This medicine clears heat and detoxifies, and can be taken orally or applied externally.

Princess Jingning obviously needs to clear the internal heat, so it should be symptomatic.

But the pimples on her face...

Su Xiaoxiao thought of the new ointment from the pharmacy.

She had subpackaged it at home, and she carried the vial with her.

She took it out together and explained: "Two yellow pills once a day. Apply the black ointment to the affected area, not more than twice."

Princess Jingning looked at the medicine bottle on the table, showing hesitation.

The little maid dissuaded her: "Princess, don't use drugs indiscriminately. Don't you remember the last time you used a folk recipe and almost ruined your face?"

That was last year.

Princess Jingning's face did not recover after a month of treatment. She went to the doctor in a hurry, and found a prescription from the folks. The redness on her face gradually disappeared.

Thinking of this, she was terrified.

Su Xiaoxiao is very confident in the medicine from the pharmacy. It has treated Su Yuan's allergies, detoxified the old master, and healed his own wounds.

It's just that she can't press her head to force people to use it.

What's more, this medicine is very precious, and it was because Princess Jingning invited her to dinner that she took out so much in one go.

This is all she has in stock.

Once used up, the medicine is gone.

Princess Jingning said: "I have taken the medicine, you go and rest."

Su Xiaoxiao went to the next room to rest.

The little maid opened the ointment in her hand: "Princess, this is a new ointment made by Imperial Physician Hu himself. It is said to be more effective than the previous one. This servant will apply it for you."

"En." Princess Jingning nodded lightly.

The little maid finished applying the medicine to Princess Jingning, stepped back, and let Princess Jingning rest.

Princess Jingning tossed and turned in bed, her face was so itchy that she couldn't fall asleep.

Dr. Hu's medicine was effective a few times before, but it gradually ceased to work. Today, she said that she changed to a new prescription, but she felt that it was almost the same as the old medicine, except for the coolness at the beginning.

"It's itchy."

Princess Jingning wanted to grab it, but when she touched it, it hurt sharply.

Princess Jingning felt extremely uncomfortable, and her whole body was extremely anxious.

Suddenly, her eyes fell on the small medicine bottle left by Su Xiaoxiao.

Adhering to the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, Princess Jingning opened the medicine bottle, poured out two pills and ate it.

This bottle of medicine is nothing, but the ointment is really... black and sticky, it looks disgusting.

Princess Jingning held back her nausea, dipped a small amount and smeared it on the acne.

It is very cool to apply.

Then she lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

This time, she slept surprisingly comfortably.

It's time for the class, and the two maids are guarding the door, neither barking nor barking.

"Sister Ziyun, do you want to wake up the princess?"

"The princess has been restless these days and nights. It is rare to sleep once a year. Let the princess sleep."

Afternoon is riding and archery class.

The rest of the daughters all brought riding clothes, but Su Xiaoxiao didn't know about it and didn't prepare in advance.

Seeing her coming in her morning clothes, the daughters couldn't help laughing.

Su Xiaoxiao looked calm, turning a deaf ear to everyone's ridicule.

To the southeast of Qilin Hall is an open pasture, and the palace servants have already brought the horse over.

Princess Hui'an has her own exclusive mount, a maroon sweat horse, not as tall as those horses in the military camp, but its speed and explosive power cannot be underestimated.

Princess Hui'an first rode her own horse on the pasture for a few laps, which aroused the amazement of the crowd.

"Princess Hui'an's horse is so beautiful!"

"Yeah! It's so fast! It's the most athletic horse I've ever seen!"

"You guys don't understand this, do you? Ordinary people can't control this kind of hard-earned horse."

"I heard that Princess Hui'an's riding skills were taught by His Highness the Third Highness."

"No wonder it rides so well!"

Qin Yanran listened to the discussion around her, and there was a trace of fascination in her eyes.

When she becomes the third concubine...she can...

clatter! clatter! clatter!

Her thoughts were interrupted by a graceful sound of hooves.

It is Princess Lingxi who is here.

The horse she was riding was not the horse prepared by the palace people, it seemed to be taller than Princess Hui'an's bloody horse.

Su Xiaoxiao felt that Princess Lingxi's horse looked familiar, and it seemed to belong to the same breed as her own foal.

Princess Lingxi's horse caught up with Princess Hui'an's bloody horse.

Princess Hui'an frowned and waved the whip: "Drive!"

Princess Lingxi also waved the whip in his hand: "Drive!"

The two chased after each other on the pasture.

The daughter of the Lu family looked dumbfounded: "My God, what kind of horse is Princess Lingxi riding? He can catch up with Princess Hui'an!"

"Big eating horse."

The one who spoke was Leng Zhiruo, daughter of the Leng family.

As her name suggests, she has a desolate demeanor, making it difficult for people to approach.

"What kind of horse is a big food horse?" Miss Lu didn't know much about horses.

Qin Yanran said: "It is the most suitable horse for combat. I heard from my father that the Dashi horse is more heat-resistant than Mongolian horses, cold-resistant than sweat-blooded horses, fast, explosive, and stable. It is suitable for direct confrontation with the enemy and surprise attacks."

Hearing what she said, everyone suddenly remembered that the Duke Protector's Mansion had an invincible heavy cavalry.

Everyone's attention suddenly shifted from Leng Zhiruo to Qin Yanran.

"Miss Qin, you must be very good at riding, right?" Miss Lu asked, "Wait...can you teach me how to ride a horse?"

Although they came for riding and archery lessons, it was obvious that Princess Hui'an was already able to ride a horse. Princess Jingning didn't come, so there was no need to accommodate her. The master would teach according to Princess Hui'an's level.

These daughters who don't know how to ride horses probably don't have many opportunities to learn from scratch.

"Miss Qin, can you teach me too?" The daughter of the Lin family came over.

"And I!"

"I want to learn too!"

Qin Yanran smiled, and said modestly: "In fact, I only learned a little from my father..."

Ms. Lu said: "Don't belittle yourself! You are the daughter of a general, even if you take out your fur, you can still compare people to the mud!"

Ms. Lin said angrily: "Yeah, unlike some people who have nothing good at it, they have to go through the back door to force their way even though they got the bottom one in the exam!"

With this remark, Su Xiaoxiao was almost missed.

Of course Su Xiaoxiao knew that she "passed" the bottom one, but Gong Xue didn't announce the result, how did Miss Lin know about it?

It's also a coincidence that Miss Lin's father happened to be one of the examiners yesterday, and what he reviewed were silent books and poems.

It was the first time he saw such ugly and blind words, he almost tore up the test paper on the spot!

After all, it wasn't an imperial examination, it wasn't that strict, and the test paper was not filled with names. He looked at the three words "Su Daya" in a big basket, and his head was buzzing.

Silent book, not a single question is correct.

Poetry... the name is not bad.

However, when he finished reading plausibly... the colleagues around him roared with laughter.

He read it again, only to realize that he was scolded by an examinee!

Lin Da was so angry that he had a heart attack.

He was not the only one who was angry.

In short, after reading the test papers, the examiners were full of smoke, and they didn't remember who was the first one at all, they only remembered one named Su Daya... A rotten wood can't be carved!

Su Xiaoxiao didn't even know that her name had become famous in the Hanlin Academy, otherwise, she would definitely understand why Mrs. Jiang would first ask who was Miss Su before class.

"It turns out that she is number one from the bottom... Then how can she still come to be the companion of the princess?"

"that is!"

"The people who are squeezed by her are so pitiful..."

Qin Yanran said, "Miss Lin, don't be joking, we are all admitted to the companion school based on our strength. I believe that no one will do this."

Miss Lin glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, and said to Qin Yanran: "You are too kind-hearted to know the dangers in the world. Some people will do anything to achieve their goals by any means!"

If you want to ask how their hostility towards Su Xiaoxiao came from, it has nothing to do with Su Xiaoxiao's failure to take the last place in the exam.

As daughters of aristocratic families, they are born with a sense of superiority, and they look down on girls from the countryside, which is one of them.

Second, Su Xiaoxiao's status is more valuable than theirs.

After Wu Anjun died in battle, Qin Canglan was the most powerful general in the Great Zhou Dynasty. She wanted real power and power, and a holy family. As Qin Canglan's direct granddaughter, one can imagine how high her status was.

When Qin Yanran was the first daughter, she was really talented, and they recognized it.

But a girl from the countryside also wants to overwhelm them, why?

"Miss Leng, do you think so?" Miss Lin continued to pull people into her camp.

The Leng family and the Wei family are close friends, so naturally they do not get along with the Qin family. This can be seen from the contest between Qin Yanran and Leng Zhiruo.

"Horse selection." However, Leng Zhiruo was obviously not interested in this topic, so she turned and left.

Qin Yanran said lightly: "Miss Lin, if you want to learn how to ride a horse from Miss Leng..."

Miss Lin hurriedly said: "No! I want to learn from you!"

She turned around, "Huh? Where's that country girl?"

They satirized for a long time, but they didn't listen at all?
