Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Chapter 1312 Famine and Natural Disaster 471

Zhou Ting's behavior was so obvious that Butler Luo's attitude towards her was not like that of a guest.

She tried not to get involved in the affairs of the palace, but she could make the decisions; in this palace, she was treated the same as her master, even her teacher Fan Qingzhi was not as good as her. The obvious difference in treatment, anyone with a little bit of brains should understand what was going on.

Ming Yi spoke slowly, "You should be the same today as you were in the past. There is no need to change yourself for anyone. If one day you change your makeup or even change into bright clothes, it should be because you like it, not because someone else likes it."

  Chunhong only half understood what she heard. She looked at the blurry face of the young lady in the bronze mirror and felt somewhat touched. Half understanding did not mean that she did not feel subconsciously touched. That was an innate feeling of being human, right?

"My dear little lady, I'm sorry to bother you. The prince is so good to you, aren't you willing to change for him?"

"We are born as human beings, and we are ourselves first. The most important thing is to be ourselves well."

Mingyi's words planted a seed in Chunhong's ignorant heart, which will one day take root and sprout.

After Chunhong got married and experienced the vicissitudes of life in her husband's family, she suddenly remembered what Miss Cheng said today, and suddenly felt that it was very right; no one was worth her changing, she had her own family, worked in the palace, and owed nothing to her husband's family, so why should she let herself suffer all kinds of grievances?

Because of Mingyi's words today, Chunhong quickly became strong and changed her attitude towards her husband's family. She was getting better and better with her children.

Chunmei brought people to bring hot water and breakfast. After Mingyi had eaten and drunk her fill, she did not let the maids follow her and went to Fufeng Courtyard alone.

"Teacher, the students are here."

When she walked outside the study room of Fufengyuan, she saw the door was open and walked into the room. When she saw the teacher, she spoke with a cheerful tone.

Fan Qingzhi was reading a book with great interest. He was interrupted but he was not angry. He calmly put down the book and looked up at his apprentice. "Why are you here at Fufeng Court so early? Have you had breakfast?"

"I came here after I had used it, and, teacher, it's getting late. I don't know if Chaosheng has set out yet. It's snowing so heavily, and I'm worried that his trip will be delayed." Traveling in the snow is risky, and it's not a long journey since we are coming back from outside Fucheng. However, in windy and snowy weather, even the short journey will be slow.

"Don't worry." Fan Qingzhi showed no sign of anxiety. He stood up and walked out of the desk. "There are many people serving Chaosheng. It's okay to travel in the wind and snow. It's a little slow, but they can ride horses. It's not a big deal."

Mingyi nodded in understanding, "It's better to ride a horse than a carriage."

However, when they went to the military camp, Fan Qingzhi was too old to ride a horse; the weather yesterday was still good and there was no heavy snow blocking the roads, so it was just right to take a carriage.

"Just wait for him to come back in the mansion. If you feel uneasy, come and play a game of hand with me."

As Fan Qingzhi spoke, he walked over to the bookshelf and took out a chessboard and two boxes of chess pieces from the drawer. He motioned Mingyi to follow him, and the two of them set up the chess pieces at a small table for guests.

Mingyi chuckled. She was a little worried that the wind and snow would block the road, but she was not worried.

An old man and a young man set up the chess pieces seriously.

Mingyi played the black piece and Fan Qingzhi played the white piece. Mingyi moved first. She placed a black piece on the intersection in the center of the chessboard, and Fan Qingzhi easily placed the white piece on the other intersection.

A few moments.

The black and white chess pieces occupy half of the chessboard.

On the chessboard, the two players fought back and forth. The old and the young remained calm and focused on the direction of the chessboard. No one thought of Zhou Ting anymore.

A game of chess took more than half an hour.

Finally, the winner is determined.

Mingyi was willing to give up the throne, and Fan Qingzhi won by only one move.

"Teacher, you've got a better move." Mingyi threw the remaining two chess pieces into the box, and then he began to think about other things. "It's already 4:40 in the morning. I wonder when the tide will rise."

Fan Qingzhi also put down the white piece and smiled, "Do you miss him so much?"

Mingyi seemed to hear something else, her eyes paused slightly, and she looked up at the teacher seriously.

"Teacher, don't you miss him? Who asked Butler Luo to bring him food from time to time, as well as thick clothes and nourishing soups and drinks?" Speaking of missing him, he missed him more than her.

Fan Qingzhi picked up the black piece on the chessboard and threw it at her, "You observe carefully."

Mingyi took it and held it in her palm, smiling brightly and freely.

"The student is surrounded by Chunmei and the others, who are well-informed in the mansion. There is nothing we can do about it."

"You are quite proud." After throwing another white piece at her, Fan Qingzhi squinted at her unhappily but didn't say anything else.

Both of them care about Zhou Ting, so no one should say anything to the other.

After staying in Fufeng Courtyard for an hour, it was almost noon and Zhou Ting had not arrived yet; not to mention Ming Yi, even Fan Qingzhi had a look of worry on his face.

At the speed they were riding, they should have arrived even if they were slower.

Just as Fan Qingzhi and Mingyi were worried about this, Tongshu came in, bowed to the two of them, and then said, "Master, Miss Cheng, the front yard has reported that the prince of Zhou has arrived at the gate of the palace."

"arrive?!"

Mingyi was startled and stood up and walked out.

Fan Qingzhi hurriedly pulled the man back, "Why are you in such a hurry? Now that we are at the doorstep, just wait for him to come over."

Mingyi calmed herself down, knowing that the teacher was right; she calmed her impulsive emotions and gave the teacher a sweet smile.

“Students listen to their teachers.”

Fan Qingzhi let go of his hand and said, "Sit still, Tongshu, go to the front yard and tell them that Miss Cheng is here with me."

Tong Shu bowed again and took his leave, then hurried to the front yard; he happened to see Butler Luo and a group of servants gathered around Prince Zhou, and heard Prince Zhou say.

"How are the teacher and the young lady?"

Butler Luo said happily, "My Lord, both Mr. Fan and the young lady are fine. They are just thinking about you. Early in the morning, the young lady went to Fufeng Courtyard to look for the old gentleman. I think they are waiting for you together."

On weekdays, the young lady would often go to Fufeng Courtyard for a walk, but today was different.

He knew early on that the Young Master would be back to celebrate the New Year, and that the young lady had gone to Fufeng Courtyard and had not come out since. It went without saying that she was staying in Fufeng Courtyard with the old man, waiting for news from the Young Master.

Zhou Ting nodded slightly and held out the sword in his hand. The secret guard waiting at the side took the sword with both hands.

Seeing the Crown Prince of Zhou walking towards the inner courtyard, Tong Shu hurriedly stepped forward and kowtowed, "I greet the Crown Prince of Zhou. Hello, Crown Prince of Zhou."

"Children's books?"

Zhou Ting felt a sense of strangeness for a moment as he hadn't seen the teacher's servant for a long time.

Tong Shu prostrated himself on the ground, "My Lord, it is me."

"Get up."

Thank you, Master. What does the teacher ask you to do? "

Tong Shu stood up and relayed the old man's words, "The master asked me to tell you that the young lady is in Fufeng Courtyard."

A gentle smile appeared in Zhou Ting's eyes, not for the children's book, but for the teacher's attentiveness. The teacher always knew what he was thinking.
