Learning the hardcore harem life of a princess

Chapter 196 Conventional Methods
It's no secret that Tantai Ziyu is pregnant, after all, she is the first concubine who is pregnant in the palace, and the queen mother, concubines and imperial physician are all there, so she can't hide it if she wants to.

Tao Min'er also knew about this, and the Tao family even sent gifts to the palace, but Tao Min'er was not used to entering the palace to play with Tantai Ziyu.

"Well, I'll go back and discuss it with my brother." Tao Miner said thoughtfully.

Tao Zeqi was really crazy looking for him, and he couldn't do it blatantly. If word spread that Tao Min'er went out and didn't return all night, his reputation would be completely ruined.

He knew that it was possible to be with Meng Zheng, but Meng Zheng didn't return all night, so he went to find a ghost.

"Master, someone outside said she is the young master's cousin." The housekeeper Lu An reported cautiously.

"Cousin?" Tao Zeqi felt that he didn't seem to have any cousins ​​in the capital. Thinking of this, he ran out with his skirts in his hands.

He really has a cousin in the capital, and she has become unreasonable recently, so it must be something wrong to come to him suddenly.

When Tao Zeqi saw that even the emperor had come, he had a toothache. His first thought was that the emperor probably knew about his sister.

"Let all those who are looking for someone come back, no one will believe you if you lie about looking for a cat." Tantai Ziyu looked at Tao Zeqi angrily.

"Any news about Min'er?" Tao Zeqi's eyes lit up.

"Well, we're in the Fragrant Plum Garden with Meng Zheng." Tantai Ziyu said and walked away immediately.

Tao Zeqi turned around and was about to go out. This time, even if he was kidnapped, he would send his sister to Cangyi.

"Then why are you so anxious?" Tantai Ziyu looked back at Tao Zeqi.

"Your majesty forgive me, I will go and bring back my younger sister, and then send her back to Cangyi to prevent her from coming to the capital again." Tao Zeqi saluted.

Tantai Ziyu looked at Ji Yuan, only to realize that Tao Zeqi's cunning reaction was too quick, because he was afraid that Ji Yuan would embarrass the Tao family because of this matter.

Ji Yuan naturally understood Tao Zeqi's meaning: "The empress will handle this matter, can you discuss it?"

"Ah?" Tao Zeqi thought he heard it wrong. Their family has always been guarded by the royal family, and the emperor actually handed it over to the queen. How trustworthy it must be.

"En." The emperor nodded with certainty.

Tao Zeqi was a little surprised, and immediately welcomed the emperor and his queen's cousin to the main room, and immediately ordered someone to serve tea.

"I heard that Tao Mansion has Changchun Pavilion." Ji Yuan suddenly thought.

Tao Zeqi was a little surprised: "There is one, but it's just some gadgets, it's hard to be elegant."

"It's okay, I'm going out with the queen today just to stroll around."

After hearing what the emperor said, Tao Zeqi took them to the backyard. Although Changchun Pavilion was a bit interesting, only people with good relationships would set foot in it.

"Yo, not bad, I didn't hear you mention it when I came here before." Tantai Ziyu felt that this place was like a cave and a scene of its own, and it looked really good.

Tao Zeqi smiled apologetically: "It's only winter here that has some special features, and there's nothing to see in normal times."

Tantai Ziyu nodded: "We will have dinner at your house at noon today, let's eat here."

"Ah?" Tao Zeqi felt that his cousin could really find something to do: "I'll arrange it right away."

"It's commonplace, don't be so exaggerated." Tantai Ziyu felt that he couldn't talk to others properly when he was with Ji Yuan.

"Then you have to prepare." Tao Zeqi bowed and stepped back.

Ji Yuan looked at the casual look between Tantai Ziyu and Ji Yuan: "The Tao family is completely different from the Baili family, but they can get along well with you."

"Do you know where the secret is?" Tantai Ziyu looked proud.

Ji Yuan looked at her questioningly.

"You have to make yourself useful, and then you have a chance to be appreciated by the other party." Tantai Ziyu said without hesitation: "If I were still that Tantai Ziyu who mourned and abandoned herself in the harem, at most they would think that I was If you give me some money, you will definitely not have any friendship with me."

Ji Yuan thought for a while and nodded: "Then how do you plan to deal with Tao Miner's matter?"

"I plan to let Tao Zeqi ignore Tao Min'er, and then cut off all her sources of income. Even her own food, clothing, housing and transportation have to be figured out by herself. It's just a conventional method." Tantai Ziyu thinks that the parents of rich families are not obedient like this of children.

"The conventional method?" Ji Yuan felt strange.

"Ah, the economic base determines the superstructure. Now Tao Miner doesn't have to worry about anything else, as long as she dresses up beautifully and goes to see Meng Zheng. We will turn all the things that are not problems for her into problems."

Ji Yuan thought for a while and nodded: "What's next?"

"Next, Tao Miner will go to Meng Zheng, or to me. Even if Meng Zheng bet that Tao's family will accept Tao Miner when the time comes, the two of them will never get along like they are now. If they find me, I will Teach her how to capture Meng Zheng's heart."

Ji Yuan stared at Tantai Ziyu, is she trying to match Meng Zheng and Tao Min'er?

"Listen to me, when Tao Miner likes Meng Zheng, let them separate, Tao Miner will naturally resist, but if it becomes a daily routine, or if she doesn't care, then let her and Meng Zheng be separated. If we separate, then there's no problem."

"Then what if Meng Zheng doesn't know?" Ji Yuan said worriedly.

"With Meng Zheng's identity, how could he be so stubborn." Tantai Ziyu gave Ji Yuan a blank look.

The three of them ate together, and Tantai Ziyu drew Tao Zeqi's attention. Although Tao Zeqi had some doubts, he planned to follow Tantai Ziyu's method. He also knew that sending him back to Cangyi would not completely solve the matter.

Tantai Ziyu went back to the palace after lunch, after all she still had to continue telling stories in the afternoon.

Baili Yuwen is already waiting in the palace. There are more people in Xianyu Pavilion today than yesterday. I heard that the bachelors in the Imperial Academy are arguing for being able to come to record. What is gentleness in front of a good story? .

Tao Min'er thought that the Tao family was in disarray, but when she entered the house, she found that the house was the same as usual, which made her even more careful.

"Miss, the young master is waiting for you in the main room." Lu An called directly when Tao Min'er came back.

Tao Min'er originally wanted to sneak back to the house to change clothes: "Uncle Lu, is my brother angry?"

"Miss will know when she goes." Lu An saluted.

Tao Min'er had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the main room.

In the main room, Tao Zeqi was settling accounts, and there was a small package on the table at one side, and there was no servant around, which made her feel flustered.

"Fourth brother." Tao Miner called softly.

Tao Zeqi ignored her, but kept his head down and finished the calculation: "You are 15 years old, the only time you make money is by selling the calligraphy and paintings you bought from the palace, but the profit is not enough for you to spend a month."

"What's wrong with fourth brother?" Tao Min'er was a little confused.

　I feel like a lot of people watch it at night. The reason why I insist on updating during the day is because I don’t want anyone to stay up late. It’s better to pay attention to your body and don’t stay up late...
