However, when walking back, Jiang Nianjiao was still a little uneasy.
After all, she and Zhao Yanzhen had a candid conversation today. However, there was insufficient time at that time, so they did not continue to communicate in depth.
Now that they are also a serious couple, there is no reason why they should not sleep in the same room.
But if they really sleep in the same place, it would be a bit embarrassing.
She secretly looked up at Zhao Yanzhen, who was leaving with her.
Zhao Yanzhen seemed not to know that she was peeking at him, and he just walked forward.
The two of them entered the inner courtyard of the main house together, and when they arrived at the door, Rui Xiu was already waiting at the door.
At this point, Ruixiu should have rested long ago. After all, as the manager, she didn't need to stay in front of their house overnight.
Since she came here at this time, there must be something important.
Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao was one step ahead of Zhao Yanzhen and asked Yingxiu, "Aunt Yingxiu, why are you here?"
Ying Xiu did not immediately answer Jiang Nianjiao's question, her eyes only fell on Zhao Yanzhen.
When Jiang Nianjiao saw this look, there was something else she didn't understand. She might indeed have something important, but it was probably something she didn't need to worry about.
Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao only took the initiative to say to Zhao Yanzhen, "Since Miss Xingxiu has something to ask you, I will go back to the house first."
But just when she was about to leave, Zhao Yanzhen pulled her and said, "Why are you just looking for me? You are the mistress of the palace, so naturally she is looking for you."
After saying that, Zhao Yanzhen just said to Lingxiu naturally, "You come in too."
Then he took Jiang Nianjiao's hand and entered the main courtyard.
After seeing the two masters sit down in the flower hall of the main courtyard, Ling Xiu took out the red and gold-gilded invitation again.
After being reminded by Zhao Yanzhen's words just now, Ying Xiu knew that this thing should be handed over to Jiang Nianjiao. However, after handing the thing to Jiang Nianjiao, she couldn't help but beat a small drum in her heart.
After all, Jiang Nianjiao had repeatedly asked herself to search for this invitation, but she never found it at that time. If it weren't for an accident, this invitation would probably never be found again.
Although she could also hide the invitation privately and just don't know about it. After all, she is in charge of the affairs. As long as the master doesn't interfere, the people below will not report it.
However, don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality. Although she was arranged by Emperor Yong, it was obviously unrealistic to fool the two people above.
Therefore, after she handed over the invitation, she was actually very worried.
Jiang Nianjiao opened the invitation and naturally saw her name clearly written on it, but it was clearly the invitation written by Concubine Qi to herself.
She said that Concubine Qi would not be stupid enough to forget her invitation or embarrass herself. Now it seems that there is something else hidden behind the fact that the invitation did not reach her.
She lowered her head and looked at Ying Xiu, who was kneeling on the ground without saying a word.
I just secretly thought that this Xiu Xiu was actually a bit smart and knew how to hand over the letter.
So after a moment of silence, she finally said, "Where did you find this invitation?"
When Jiang Nianjiao asked, Lingxiu just whispered, "Du Ling found this invitation from the concierge."
Hearing this, Jiang Nianjiao was not too surprised. After all, her courtyard was filled with maids sent from here and slaves sent from there.
Basically, this place has been like this since she married into Prince Jin's Mansion, and they are all elders and big shots. Driving them out would seem to refute someone else's face.
In addition, she thought that since King Jin was dead, these chess pieces would be useless, and leaving them to pass the time in the outer courtyard would be a good use.
I didn't expect that Zhao Yanzhen would actually come back from the dead, and these things would still be eaten inside and outside after raising them in his house for so many years. As soon as Zhao Yanzhen returned, they wanted to make trouble. If they didn't take care of it, they would look like they were in trouble. He seems to be a soft-footed shrimp.
A cold look flashed between Jiang Nianjiao's brows and eyes. Zhao Yanzhen didn't care about this matter. He only looked at Jiang Nianjiao who was dealing with this matter. At the moment, he seemed like a second uncle who didn't care about anything.
Jiang Nianjiao then only said, "Where is this person now?"...
Yingxiu quickly replied in a low voice, "The man has been tied up in the woodshed.
Girl, you should go and take a look. "
"Drag the person out and kill him with a stick, and let the servants in the house watch. It seems that I was too pampering them in the past, which made them not take me seriously anymore." Jiang Niangjiao said coldly.
After receiving the order, Ting Xiu went down to do the work naturally.
There was no need for Jiang Nianjiao to come forward if he had to do things with his sleeves.
But after Ling Xiu left, Zhao Yanzhen, who had been just watching, grabbed Jiang Nianjiao's wrist as he was about to leave.
Jiang Nianjiao looked at her hands, then raised her eyebrows and said, "What? Your Highness thinks my way of handling it is too cruel?"
Zhao Yanzhen only chuckled when he heard this, "How could it be possible? Madam did the right thing."
"Then why are you holding my hand?" Jiang Nianjiao asked in confusion.
Zhao Yanzhen took a sapphire Buddha statue from his purse.
He whispered, "Madam gave me something for protection that day, but I didn't have anything for Madam. I thought about it and carved this for Madam."
This jade is good jade, the best type of glass, transparent and moist like water droplets.
However, the most rare thing is not the material of the jade, but the thought of the person who gave it to him. If you look closely, the face of the jade Bodhisattva clearly looks like Jiang Nianjiao.
"This face is a bit strange." Jiang Nianjiao said a little embarrassed.
"Why is it weird? I figured it out while thinking about you." Zhao Yanzhen said with a smile.
As soon as he said these words, Jiang Nianjiao's face turned red.
She glanced sideways at him, "How can I be compared with the gods and Buddhas? You are blasphemy."
However, Zhao Yanzhen only said seriously, "In my heart, you are no different from gods and Buddhas. If it weren't for you, how could I be safe and sound? If it weren't for you, my mother's clan would not be able to be protected."
Jiang Nianjiao was a little at a loss by Zhao Yanzhen's seriousness. She just lowered her head and said, "Why are you talking about this? Since I decided to work together with you, you were the only path I chose. I just want to make this path easier."
Hearing what she said, Zhao Yanzhen suddenly remembered his suspicions about her before. For a moment, Zhao Yanzhen felt that he seemed to be incompatible with Jiang Nianjiao.
He only whispered, "You're right, don't worry, now that I'm back, I will definitely protect you."
Hearing Zhao Yanzhen's promise, Jiang Nianjiao only smiled faintly. She originally thought that Zhao Yanzhen would probably stay here for the night, but then Zhao Yanzhen just said, "You have a good rest."
After saying this, he seemed to be planning to leave. Jiang Nianjiao didn't know for a moment whether he was going to stay here or go somewhere else to rest.
But she was too embarrassed to speak directly about it.
In the end, I didn't expect that Cui Qiao next to me said quickly, "Your Highness, won't you sleep with our lady?"
As soon as she asked this question, Jiang Nianjiao immediately blushed.
Although she didn't ask the question herself, Cui Qiao was her own, so she asked it as if she wanted to sleep with him.
After hearing Cui Qiao's words, Zhao Yanzhen just looked at Jiang Nianjiao with a smile, and then said warmly, "I still have a lot of things to deal with today, and I have to get up early tomorrow. It would be bad if it disturbs your dream."
Jiang Nianjiao originally thought that he was probably going to tease her with Cui Qiao's words, but she didn't expect that he was honestly explaining to her the reason why he didn't stay here. It sounded like he was caring about her.
If I could accept his consideration with peace of mind, it would not be justified in theory.
Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao could only say, "That's not the case. Besides, husband and wife should understand each other."
After hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Zhao Yanzhen said with joy, "What Madam said is that since Madam has spoken, Yanzhen should be respectful rather than obey her orders."
After saying this, as if he was afraid that Jiang Nianjiao would regret it, he just said to Cui Qiao, who was staying vigil tonight, "Ah Qiao, please leave a small door for me. I will come over later. As for Madam, you don't have to wait." Me."
Jiang Nianjiao originally thought he was so considerate, but she didn't expect that as soon as she spoke, he couldn't wait to agree. It was as if he was waiting for her to speak and had set up a trap for herself to get in.
But looking at the happy look on his face and eyes, she didn't
I feel disgusted. After all, since we are husband and wife, we will have to sleep together sooner or later. Maybe something more intimate than this will have to be done sooner or later.
Thinking of this, Jiang Nianjiao just said, "Then I'll let Cuiqiao wait for you."
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Zhao Yanzhen kissed Jiang Nianjiao's cheek in front of Cui Qiao and said, "I'll trouble you, madam."
After saying this, he just let go of Jiang Nianjiao and left.
After he got out of the house, he put aside his gentleness and went straight to the study.
After arriving at a dark corner of the study, he just said, "Yu Shisan, you heard what happened just now."
Hearing Zhao Yanzhen's call, a secret guard jumped out immediately. Yu Shisan said yes, but in his heart he didn't know whether Zhao Yanzhen was talking about him flirting with the princess, or whether he was flirting with the princess.
Until Zhao Yanzhen then said, "Since you heard everything, you should know what to do, right?"
"Ah? My subordinate is slow. I wonder which one your Highness is talking about?" Yu Shisan said awkwardly.
Hearing the answer Yu Shisan gave him, Zhao Yanzhen just said unceremoniously, "Since you don't know, what should you do? Could it be that you have been with that girl Cui Qiao for a long time, and you have become stupid too?" .”
Although Yu Shisan wanted to defend Cui Qiao, sometimes he had to admit that Cui Qiao really only had strength.
"This subordinate is stupid, please let me know clearly, Your Highness." Yu Shisan had to say honestly.
"Didn't we find out the princess's invitation just now? Wasn't the guard arranged by Lady Li? Since Lady Li's hands and feet are not clean, we can also let Concubine Qi know whose handiwork it was that she suffered so much today. However, Be careful when revealing this kind of information."
