Yijuan cloud

Chapter 116

After saying that, Cao Yingshan turned around and looked stunned. I didn’t know what she was thinking. I continued: "I am friends with Princess Side, not that I am an enemy of the princess, but I don’t want others to be cut off by others and I am a fish. Princess Side still remembers that the three Years ago, when you went to the North, you were so disheartened. Now three years have passed, do you think the situation has changed? It will not change. Things have changed and people have always changed. You Look at the hot sun outside and the flowers, plants and trees in the yard. Does it look like three years ago? It was the same summer."

I pulled up my skirt slightly, knelt down and said, "If the situation does not change, the situation will not change. Juan Yun is willing to work with Princess Side, in the palace, and with the princess, we are evenly matched, and we can be well together."

In sight, Cao Yingshan's emerald blue pleated skirt remained motionless.

The hall was quiet, and the blackbird on the porch outside suddenly called a few times, and soon became quiet again.

I was waiting for Cao Yingshan to calm down her superior attitude.She was just pretending.

I was still her maid in the past, and now I am just like her, and I am about to become the master. She always feels a little unfair in her heart, but no matter she intends to humiliate me, since she can't wait to see me, she must have had a plan in her heart, but She just didn't want to admit it.

The pleated skirt finally moved. She took a few steps to the side and touched the white jade porcelain bottle on the shelf with her fingers. The bottle made a slight cracking sound when it scraped against the gold armor.

The porcelain vase is from the Rakshasa Kingdom, with a blond-haired and blue-eyed foreign woman carved on it.

All the decorations in the house were ordered by Prince Yi, ranging from furniture to tea leaves and needlework... Although it is a new home, it feels like he has lived there for a long time.

"What qualifications do you have to compare with me?" Her voice had softened, but her words were still extremely harsh.

I disagreed and said, "Juanyun just wants to be of the same mind and heart as Princess Side."

"Hmph, the prince didn't know that he could only be transferred back to the capital in the year of the monkey. You have to observe mourning for three years. It's so chaotic outside. It's still unclear what the future will be like. You thought too early. During this period, the prince is in the capital. I will protect you until the prince returns to the north, and see if Mrs. Xu doesn’t skin you yet, her mother-in-law is in Beijing doing whatever she wants to make things easier for your family.”

I was a little startled. The prince was going to stay in Beijing. Didn't Cao Yingshan get the news?He suppressed the mention and just said: "Even if the prince comes back, the Xu family will not be the only ones in Beijing. Isn't there also you, the concubine?"

Cao Yingshan turned around, with a sneer on her face, "You are smart, get up, and you won't be too tired to panic."

She walked back to the chair and sat down and said: "You are right, what should I be angry about? It doesn't matter if the prince marries ten or eight people? I just didn't expect that the prince would accept you as his concubine. Seriously?" I'm so flattering to you. When Mrs. Xu first heard that you saved the prince's life and that the prince kept you as a distinguished guest in the Beijing Mansion, he never had a good night's sleep. When the doctor was treating me, he spilled the beans. She said that Mrs. Xu is depressed and angry, and now that the prince wants to accept you again, she is even more angry."

She glanced sideways at me and chuckled: "Do you think it's easy to be a princess here?"

I lowered my eyes and said calmly: "There is no such thing as having both ends in this world."

The days soon settled down.

The house is not small, and there are many servants at home, so it is not easy to do household chores and expenses, but with Jin Niang and Aunt Xue taking care of it, I am happy and at ease.

Before coming to Beijing, Zhu Qing said that the prince had arranged an official job for You Ting to go to Fengyang as a small governor to supervise the construction of the imperial mausoleum.

Although he was far away from home, he still had access to imperial food, so when he returned to Beijing from Fujian, Youting changed his way to Fengyang.

Xing'er, on the other hand, worked with Uncle Zhao as the housekeeper, doing shopping in the house, but Xing'er was always out running around. I looked for him ten or eight times, but he always said he had gone out.

Once, I finally met him and asked him what he was busy with, but I was so distracted by the excitement of going to Beijing that I stayed away from home all day long.

He smiled faintly and stared at me with his dark eyes.

I don't know why, but I suddenly felt that Xing'er was really an adult. His calmness made me a little strange. Although I was much calmer myself, I still didn't want Xing'er to look at me like this, as if he was hiding something in his heart. Like a lot of things on my mind.

He chuckled and said, "Miss, are you bored? How about we sneak out and go shopping?"

In the past, I loved to sneak out and hang out, and Xing'er would always cover me, so Xing'er probably thought I was blaming him for not taking me with him when he went out.I shook my head and said, "Going out and wandering around is what only children like."

Xing'er smiled, the smile was very forced, and he said, "Miss, you don't have to be so restrained."

I was stunned, feeling that Xing'er was a little confused. Where did I restrain myself?I just lost interest in going out for a walk, so I waved my hand and let him go.

Jin Niang came to see me, looked around my room, and said with a smile: "I haven't been to your place for a few days, so I got a shelf full of books from somewhere. It doesn't look like a boudoir, but like a man's study." ”

I asked Prince Yi to find these books for me. Except for a few idle books, most of them are medical books, classics and history books, as well as books by saints such as "Laozi" and "Mencius".

I brought tea to Jin Niang and said, "Let Xing'er buy it from outside and pass the time with nothing to do."

Jin Niang said: "When Madam was here, I always thought you were playful, and you didn't like to read books or do embroidery. Now you're better, but you're just too boring. Let's go for a walk in the yard. .”

Linghua smiled and said: "Madam, don't worry. When the sun is not poisonous, Miss will go out for a walk in the morning and evening."

I said: "Look at me here, with incense burning, refreshments, and the fragrance of birds and flowers outside the window. It's great for me to read in the wind. Besides, I fulfilled my mother's wish, okay? I also want Jin Niang to teach me how to fight. Where is Luozi?"

Jin Niang said: "What's the point of pretending?"

I thought about it and said, "It's getting hot. Let's get a folding fan for daddy."

Jin Niang couldn't help but smile: "No wonder others say that women have changed since they were [-] years old. Not only their appearance, but also their temperament has become more loving. But what tricks are you going to use?"

"How about the serial one?" I asked Linghua to bring some thread.

In the middle of the afternoon, the room was getting a little dark. Linghua lit a lamp and said, "Let's fight again tomorrow. Be careful of hurting your eyes."

While burying the thread, I said: "I just started, and I want to finish it all at once. It doesn't matter if you light up two more lamps."

Linghua went to get a lamp from the outside. After a while, she came over with a lamp, and her shadow fell in front of me. I said without raising my head, "Linghua, put the lamp on the table."

"What are you fighting for?" It was the voice of Prince Yi, speaking as he looked over to take a look.

I hurriedly tried to hide it, but it was too late, so I had to let him see it and said, "Why is there no sound when walking? It scared me."

"I was talking to Linghua outside, but you didn't hear me. It's already dark. What else are you doing? Come and take a rest with me."

The chessboard on the soft couch was removed, and a plate of Guichuntang's rice cakes was placed on the table.

I was a little hungry and ate two pieces in a row. When I looked up, I saw Prince Yi leaning on the jade pillow with his hands on his cheeks and looking at me with a smile. I covered my mouth with my hands and glared at him: "You are looking at me like this. How else to eat?”

"Then I'll eat with you." He opened his mouth and leaned over.

I pinched a piece and fed it to him. He ate a few mouthfuls, then opened his mouth and came over. Looking at his appearance, I laughed out loud and said, "You are just like the parrots outside!"

He simply imitated the parrot's opening and closing, pinched his voice and said: "Good sister, feed me rice cakes quickly."

I laughed so much that my stomach ached, and I covered the plate and said, "It's just these few pieces, I won't give it to you to eat..."
