I really became a king.

Chapter 202: Great Wisdom Appears Foolish Mi Qingqing (Part )
Although Mi Qingqing had only met Jiang Yi twice, she had already vaguely felt that although the other party did not put on airs in front of her woman, he was definitely a "domineering" man and would definitely not like a woman who was competitive.

"What about you? Do you really plan to not fight for anything like when you were in Prince Su's Mansion?" Just as Mi Qingqing was thinking about it, Mi Xiang's voice sounded in her ears.

Mi Qingqing was a little dazed for a moment. In the past, in the Prince Su's Mansion, although she was the principal wife, she was weak in character. If it weren't for her sister's support behind her, it would have been difficult for her to gain a foothold.

Facts have also proved that although she has firmly established herself as the queen, she has no control over the entire Prince Su's Mansion.

But if she is lucky enough to enter Prince Yi's Mansion in the future, she will not fight for anything. This is her nature and the home life she most wants to live.

"Aren't you worried that you'll be marginalized in Prince Yi's Mansion in the future? We sisters can't even compare to those pretty maids with good family backgrounds. We might get tired of them after having enough of them..." Mi Xiang said again.

Mi Qingqing's eyes became very flustered, and she even became a little depressed and desperate when she thought about the possible situation in the future.

Mi Xiang felt a little painful watching from the side and regretted making such a joke. Just when he was about to say something to comfort her, he suddenly found that his sister Mi Qingqing's eyes had regained their spirit. It was obvious that she was not affected by his words just now. Instead, she realized something. So he remained silent and waited for what to say next.

As for Mi Qingqing, his sister's words really made him feel depressed and desperate for a moment, because he might be abandoned and become lonely and helpless in the future.

But then she thought of everything that happened when Jiang Yi was with her. The nostalgia and care he showed her came from the bottom of his heart and was definitely not just a casual act.

As long as you always maintain your simple and unpretentious nature, the nostalgia and care from the other person will never fade away, but will grow day by day.

Yes, you have to be a quiet harbor, without intrigue and deception, so that the other person can sleep soundly and comfortably in your arms.

"Not fighting is fighting..." Mi Qingqing murmured.

Mi Xiang was surprised and couldn't help but look at the sister in front of her with admiration. These five short words revealed the essence of house fighting and its cruelty, especially in the homes of the powerful. If you don't fight for anything, you will only end up dead.

However, there are very few women throughout history who can do this, because it requires the ability to endure loneliness.

Until Mi Qingqing said goodbye and left, Mi Xiang was still silently pondering these five words.

Dali Imperial Capital, East City Branch of Prince Duan’s Mansion.

Ever since Jiang Yi came to pick up Jiang Ning last time, Duo Luo sent people to clean up the house from inside to outside. The whole house became fresher and some maids and eunuchs were assigned to stay and take care of it.

The previous desolate feeling of no one living there was gone and it became popular.

Duo Luo also took great pains to do this. He left the grand main courtyard unused and instead focused on tidying up a small side courtyard next door.

It was used as the residence for the prince when he occasionally stayed there.

In order to make things convenient for the prince, a small part of another side courtyard adjacent to this one was opened up. The two side courtyards were connected one in front and one in the back, surrounding the small cross courtyard that led directly to the next-door neighbor in the center.

Moreover, Duo Luo specifically told the maids and eunuchs that this side courtyard was the prince's resting place, and no one was allowed to enter unless summoned.

However, the daily cleaning work became a problem, and Duo Luo didn't know who to ask to be responsible for it.

Although Duo Luo himself did not think there was anything wrong with his own prince's affair, the identity of the person next door was quite sensitive. If it were to get out, it might turn into a rumor against his own prince.

Such rumors about extravagant things are not uncommon in wealthy mansions, but Duo Luo still feels that he should keep this privacy for his prince.

Duo Luo really couldn't find a suitable candidate, so he finally asked Jiang Yi carefully. Hearing Duo Luo's arrangement for the East City Courtyard, Jiang Yi was very impressed, thinking that this was a qualified housekeeper.

Without any hesitation, Jiang Yi designated a person - the cook Tuo Xiaoliu.

Even though this cook seems a bit noisy in the palace, she comes from the lowest class of the market after all, and knows how to judge the situation and read people's expressions.

For example, ever since Princess Mo Li left, Tuo Xiaoliu, who used to be so noisy, suddenly became much more low-key and became extremely cautious in the palace.

Jiang Yi understood that the other party was "assessing the situation"!

Because the huge palace suddenly lost its legitimate mistress, Tuo Xiaoliu temporarily lost someone to please, and without Mo Li as her backer, she subconsciously restrained her temper.

After all, she understood that she was not popular in front of Jiang Yi, the biggest boss in the palace.

People like Tuo Xiaoliu are well versed in the ways of survival and know exactly what to say and what not to say.

There is another suitable candidate, Jiang Xue.

This girl is quite intelligent. She has learned a lot from her good sister Tuo Xiaoliu, and she will keep her mouth shut about some things about Jiang Yi.

However, this girl's vision is much sharper than Tuo Xiaoliu's. She has been sticking to Jiang Ning since the first time she saw her. Now she has clung tightly to the thick leg of the eldest aunt of Prince Yi's Mansion. She has much better vision than Tuo Xiaoliu.

Jiang Yi finally chose Tuo Xiaoliu. Firstly, his elder sister Jiang Ning had just arrived at Prince Yi's Mansion, so she needed someone to talk to and accompany her. Secondly, Jiang Xue was too intelligent, and Jiang Yi was afraid that it would affect the simple and weak Mi Qingqing.

The cook, Tuo Xiaoliu, is much simpler in this regard. Even if she tries her best to please Mi Qingqing, she only uses some predictable tricks.

Most importantly, Jiang Yi didn’t want Mi Qingqing to live too hard.

He really liked this woman who was always shy and weak. When he was with her, especially when he could smell the faint body fragrance from her, he could sleep soundly.

Of course, he was also deeply fascinated by her shy and reluctant look, which made him feel an urge to conquer her every time he saw her.

He really felt pity for this woman.

This was Jiang Yi's third time to come to the East City Villa, and Duo Luo was still following him and waiting for orders.

Duo Luo was also very tactful and had already sent away the maids and eunuchs who wanted to greet him. When he arrived at the gate of the side courtyard, he stopped on his own accord and had no intention of following Jiang Yi into the other courtyard.

"Uncle Fu, I brought some fine tea with me. Would you like to have a taste?" Duo Luo invited Fulong who was also standing outside the door.

"Okay, I'm thirsty."

Fulong couldn't help but secretly admire Duo Luo's keen eyes. No wonder he was regarded as the prince's trusted chief steward. His eyesight was indeed very valuable.

As servants, it was their duty to stand at the door waiting for their master.

But it depends on what the matter is. In this situation, it is indeed a bit awkward to stand here. Making an appointment to have a cup of tea together is indeed a good way to get rid of the awkwardness.
