Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Chapter 137 Like the Fragrance of Flowers

In order to write the three-page letter of apology, Ji Anni worked hard from morning to afternoon, and then from afternoon to evening. Finally, she finished the three pages of the letter of apology before the last ray of sunlight disappeared over the horizon.

Of course, Hua Rong had helped a lot in this. Otherwise, with Ji Anni's impetuous temper, even if she could really write three pages, the content would definitely be full of sophistry that would make the Queen Mother so angry that her lungs would bleed.

For the health of the Queen Mother, for Ji Anni's already smoking brain, and for the peace of the Right Courtyard, Hua Rong finally agreed to give Ji Anni some hints and helped her complete a letter of repentance that could be considered a letter of repentance.

After signing, Ji Anni didn't even check it once, and couldn't wait to hand the letter of apology to Hua Rong and said, "Hua Rong, please give this letter of apology to the Queen Mother."

"Your Majesty, the letter of repentance must be delivered in person to show its sincerity." Hua Rong said with the demeanor of Ji Annie's mother.

Ji Anni stuffed the confession into Hua Rong's hand without thinking twice, and begged pitifully, "Good Hua Rong, please help me once. I dare say that the Queen Mother definitely doesn't want to see my face now. Even if I send her a sincere confession, she will definitely find ways to ridicule and mock me. You can say that I caught a cold in the dungeon last night. The doctor said that I can't be exposed to cold wind, and it is contagious if I meet people. Even if I want to personally present the confession to the Queen Mother, I am afraid that I will accidentally pass on the cold. So for the Queen Mother's health, I have to confess alone in the right courtyard."

Hearing Ji Anni's conversation go on so smoothly, without even a break for breathing, Hua Rong didn't know what to say, and only glanced at her with a slight reproach. That look seemed to say: Madam, you usually look as dumb as a piece of wood, but when you come up with these tricks, your brain works faster than a wheel, I really can't do anything about you.

Seeing Hua Rong accept the letter of repentance silently, Ji Anni knew that she had agreed to help her send it to the Empress Dowager's Palace. She immediately jumped up from the stool with joy and pulled Die'er beside her and said, "Die'er, hurry up and accompany me to the West Palace to see Baogui Consort."

Die'er still cannot speak. When Ji Anni pulled her, she was frightened and let out an "ah ah" sound.

She was so thin and weak that even a gust of wind could make her unable to stand steadily. Now that Ji Anni pulled her so suddenly, she had no room to struggle at all and was pulled out of the door like a toy.

"Empress!" When Huarong reacted a second later, Ji Anni had already pulled Die'er to the front porch.

"Huarong, go and submit your letter of apology first. I'll be back soon." Ji Anni waved to Huarong and rushed out without looking back.

In fact, she ran so fast because she knew Hua Rong would stop her. In order to avoid being nagged by Hua Rong, she decided to take a blitzkrieg. By the time Hua Rong reacted, she had already run far away. Hua Rong was also a relatively ladylike girl, and she would definitely not cling to her like Tian Ning, a piece of maltose.

Things turned out just as Ji Anni had expected. When she ran to the gate and looked back, she saw Hua Rong still sighing there, with no intention of chasing after her. As if she had just been released from prison, Ji Anni took a deep breath and breathed in the smell of freedom.

If Die'er hadn't been running out of breath and dragging Ji Anni like a weight, I'm afraid Ji Anni would have been able to run to the gate of the West Palace at the speed of 50 meters in one breath.

Hearing Dier's heavy breathing, Ji Anni knew she was dying, so she stopped and asked, "Die'er, are you okay?"

Die'er couldn't make a sound at all. She just bent over and gasped for air. It took her a long time to recover. She raised her head and shook her head at Ji Anni, indicating that she didn't need to worry about her. Seeing Die'er's painful face, Ji Anni knew that her physical condition was not optimistic. So she regretted her excitement just now and apologized to Die'er: "Die'er, I'm sorry, I was just trying to escape Huarong's sight and didn't think about you."

Die'er smiled gently at Ji Anni, and the comfort brought by that smile immediately made Ji Anni feel a spring breeze on her face.

At that moment, Ji Anni actually confused Die'er with Yizhen. Suddenly, she felt that Die'er and Yizhen were somewhat similar, both of them looked plain at first glance, but after getting to know each other for a long time, you could feel the gentle charm of each other's personality.

But Die'er's presence is far less strong than Yizhen's.

I don’t know why, Yizhen’s gentleness is easy to feel, but Die’er’s gentleness seems hard to detect.

If Yizhen is compared to the fragrance of flowers, then Die'er is like the air.

People can easily smell the fragrance of flowers and feel that the flowers are not far away, but it is difficult for people to smell the presence of air.

The same is invisible, colorless, tasteless, and can only be felt by feeling, but Yizhen's gentle personality can make her presence bring a fragrance and comfort to others, and then bring a sense of existence. But Die'er's gentleness and thoughtfulness can only quietly surround you like air. If you don't feel suffocated, it's hard to really feel it.

Perhaps, this is what Huarong said when she evaluated Yizhen: "Her every move and every word in front of the Empress were carefully planned."

Even so, no one's personality is perfect. Is it wrong to try to make yourself look gentler? Do you have to make everyone show their true nature in front of you like Princess Tianning?

Ji Anni didn't even dare to think about it.

In fact, everyone has a little disguise in front of others to a certain extent. This is called interpersonal and social interaction.

But Ji Anni didn't understand why Huarong always emphasized Yizhen's "sociality" as "disguise" in front of her.

To put it bluntly, she still felt that Hua Rong was deliberately trying to alienate the relationship between her and Yizhen.

Especially after hearing those stories about Huarong, she felt that Huarong was a legend. She had no way of guessing what Huarong was thinking, and she felt that Huarong was very far away. But Yizhen was different, and Yizhen was right beside her. Yizhen laughed when she was happy and cried when she was sad, which was much easier to understand than Huarong, who shed her last blood-red tears on the execution platform and had no more tears to shed.

Along the way, Ji Anni was thinking about Yizhen, Huarong and Die'er, and forgot what she should say to Concubine Baogui.

When I looked up again, I found that I had arrived at the gate of the West Palace.

A group of young palace maids were waiting outside the door, more in number than usual.

There were probably many royal dignitaries coming to the West Palace to visit Concubine Baogui today, so they had sent more people to inform and guide the way.

As Ji Anni approached, a well-behaved little palace maid came forward and asked, "Are you here to see Concubine Baogui, Your Majesty? Please wait a moment, Your Majesty. I will go in and inform you." After saying that, she turned and left.
