In the inner room, Jiang Nianjiao had just had breakfast and was listening to Ling Xiu's report on today's affairs in the house.
When she finished her report, she happened to hear someone say that Cheng Susu was coming.
Jiang Nianjiao said to the outside, "Let her come in."
After hearing this, someone soon invited Cheng Susu into the house.
When Yingxiu saw Cheng Susu, she couldn't help but take another look at Cheng Susu, but she didn't ask about Cheng Susu's origins.
Jiang Nianjiao only glanced at Ling Xiu.
Afterwards, Jiang Nianjiao waited until Lingxiu went out and looked at Cheng Susu calmly as he entered the room. When Cheng Susu felt more and more anxious and uneasy, Jiang Nianjiao said in a low voice, "Have you had breakfast?"
Cheng Susu whispered, "Thank you for your concern, Princess. I have already had breakfast."
Jiang Nianjiao only nodded slightly when she heard this, and then asked, "Are you still used to working in the study?"
Cheng Susu nodded, hesitated, and then she just lay on the ground and said, "But yesterday, I went to the study at night. I didn't know that you can't go to the study at night. Please forgive me, Princess."
Jiang Nianjiao only said, "I heard from His Highness about this."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Susu looked at Jiang Nianjiao suddenly.
I don't know what King Jin had in mind when he mentioned this to Jiang Nianjiao.
Dislike her?
While she was thinking absentmindedly, she heard Jiang Nianjiao suddenly say, "What His Highness means is that you are Cheng Hanlin's daughter, so how can you be allowed to work in the study, so he asked me to arrange another place for you in the mansion. If I get another maid for you, you won't have to work as hard as them."
Upon hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Cheng Susu's face instantly brightened. Does Your Highness have her in mind?
When she thought of this, Cheng Susuman felt even more joyful.
However, she did not dare to let Jiang Nianjiao see her joy. She only whispered, "I am a slave, but it depends on the arrangements of the princess and His Highness."
Seeing that she agreed, Jiang Nianjiao nodded, and then she said softly, "In this case, I will ask Lianying to arrange a new residence for you. If you are fine, quickly pack up the things in the residence and go with Lianying."
After listening to Jiang Nianjiao's words, Cheng Susu nodded.
Then Jiang Nianjiao waved her hand, and Cheng Susu left with the others.
When they returned to their original residence, the maids who were tidying up in the study had just come back from the study, and they were just resting and chatting in the room.
Seeing Lingying coming, they were so frightened that they stood up immediately.
I thought it was Lianying who came to check the post.
"Sister Lingying, we have finished all the work, so we came here to rest for a while. We will go back immediately after resting." One of the maids explained in a low voice.
Lingying just nodded nonchalantly.
At this moment, the others finally saw someone following Lianying, and that person was none other than the newcomer Cheng Susu.
As soon as Cheng Susu entered the room, she just nodded to them, and then started to pack her things. However, she actually had nothing to pack. She was brought here temporarily by Jiang Nianjiao, so she only kept many of her things. At Gao Wenyuan's place, of course those things were actually purchased by Gao Wenyuan for her.
So she was packing her things very quickly at this moment, while everyone else in the room just watched her packing her things silently.
Cheng Susu is packing her things and getting ready to leave.
While everyone was thinking this, Cheng Susu had already packed her parcel. She glanced at the others and said with a smile on her face, "Everyone, I'm going to other places first. See you again tomorrow. Thank you for your kindness to me these past two days." take care of."
After leaving these words, she followed Lianying directly.
The others were still confused when they watched her leave, but Lianying warned them before leaving: "Don't talk nonsense about today's affairs. If I find out that any of you has tipped off the news in front of people other than the princess, it will be nonsense." You are just talking nonsense, or I will beat her to death with a stick!"
Upon hearing this threat, the others just looked at each other. Because of this, the others naturally did not dare to say a word. They just nodded repeatedly, indicating that they would never say anything to anyone.
And wait
After warning this group of people, Lianying led Cheng Susu to a place in the west wing.
The west wing is naturally far away from the main room, but it is somewhat close to Jiang Zhi and her daughter.
The reason why Jiang Nianjiao arranged this was because Jiang Zhi and Cheng Susu were similar in age. When senior Mo Xia left for Beijing and went to Qiang Desert with Zhao Lang, Jiang Zhi would be alone, and she was afraid that Jiang Zhi would be bored.
After all, she didn't know how to get along with Jiang Zhi before, and she certainly didn't know how to get along with her now.
Therefore, with Cheng Susu by her side, she might not be so bored. As for the maid next to Cheng Susu, she naturally arranged for a maid she trusted to be Cheng Susu's maid.
After all, she was somewhat wary of Cheng Susu. The most important thing was that she was afraid that other people in the palace would have any bad thoughts towards Cheng Susu. After all, her taking in Cheng Susu was a hidden danger, and although the palace was full of people because of the last invitation incident, Although many craftsmen sent from other places have been expelled, there are still some people who cannot be moved, and the most immovable among them is the sleeve.
If it was in the past, Jin Wang Zhao Yanzhen had died, perhaps Lingxiu's existence here was just to suppress others. However, now that Zhao Yanzhen is still alive, judging from the extent that Emperor Yong wanted to establish Zhao Nianze, she had to worry that Lingxiu would It will not be detrimental to the Jin Palace.
Cheng Susu came to the West Wing happily at first, thinking that living in the West Wing would give her a better treatment.
With the salary raised, she would naturally have to contribute some effort, and it was King Jin who issued the decree, so she was even more convinced that she was favored by King Jin.
However, she was decorated that day, and the person waiting for her was not Zhao Yanzhen, but Jiang Zhi, who was said to be Jiang Nianjiao's younger sister.
She didn't dare to offend the other party, after all, she was still King Jin's sister-in-law no matter what.
Therefore, Cheng Susu received Jiang Zhi warmly, but reception is one thing, and whether she is willing to talk to Jiang Zhi is another.
She was afraid that if Jiang Zhi chatted with her for too long, King Jin would come and then leave again, or that King Jin would come and Jiang Zhi would tell Jiang Nianjiao the news.
Therefore, in the subsequent conversation, she became extremely perfunctory with Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi naturally felt this emotion. She just thought that Cheng Susu couldn't talk to her, so after giving her a plate of dried fruits, she returned to her place of residence.
Cheng Susu has been waiting for Zhao Yanzhen's arrival since then.
However, she waited until the moon was rising, and Zhao Yanzhen never came to her house.
On the contrary, Jiang Nianjiao's maid saw that she refused to rest and only read a volume of poems over and over again. She couldn't help but said, "Miss Cheng, it's better to rest early. It would be bad if she goes blind."
The maid naturally didn't know what Cheng Susu had in mind, and Cheng Susu was naturally wary of this maid. After all, she was the one arranged by Jiang Nianjiao. She was afraid that whatever she asked or said would be known to Jiang Nianjiao, so she was always cautious. Be careful with your words and actions.
However, she was still a little unwilling, so she just said implicitly, "Do you usually go to bed at this time?"
The maid nodded slightly when she heard this.
Cheng Susu then asked, "What about the main courtyard?"
The maid only said, "You mean the princess and the prince?"
Cheng Susu nodded.
"Why do you ask this?" the maid asked warily.
"I'm just asking casually. After all, aren't we just chatting?" Cheng Susu said with a smile on her face, but in her heart she was secretly thinking that this maid was quite alert and alert.
The maid just said, "It's not necessarily the case in the main courtyard. It depends on the working hours. Sometimes you are busy and stay up for most of the night. This is true for both the prince and the princess."
"Oh." After hearing this, Cheng Susu only responded softly, but at this time, she was thinking that maybe she still had a chance. Maybe King Jin was busy in the study. After all, when I met him yesterday, wasn't he just reading in the study?
Cheng Susu thought this way, and then saw the maid standing and yawning, so she just said gently, "If you are sleepy, go to bed first. I am used to staying up late. After reading this volume of poems, I will go to bed."
After listening to Cheng Susu's words, the maid felt really sleepy. After all, she was not the master, so she had to do all the work. If she didn't go to bed early, no one would do the work for her, and she was not one of those who raised her.
Dear masters.
And this Cheng Susu seemed to be easy to get along with, and she didn't really regard her as her master in her heart, so the maid only said, "Okay, if the girl is sleepy, just sleep by yourself. I will make the bed for the girl." rest."
After saying this, the maid went in and laid out the quilt. After doing this, she was ready to go back to the servant's room to sleep.
"Miss Cheng, let's see you tomorrow."
Cheng Susu just smiled and said, "Okay, let's see you tomorrow."
However, as soon as the maid left, Cheng Susu put down the Book of Songs in her hand. ..
Then she only put on a cloak and walked outside. She didn't dare to go directly to the study, but she remembered that there was an artificial lake and an artificial observation deck not far from the study.
That's the only way to go to the study.
Although Cheng Susu had only been in Prince Jin's Mansion for two or three days, he already knew the terrain he had walked through.
It must be said that the cold wind at the beginning of the year was still unbearable. She ran out of the warm room and stayed outside for only a moment before she shivered from the cold.
And she was probably the only one wandering around in this cold windy weather in the middle of the night. While stamping her feet and rubbing her hands, she looked towards the study room where Zhao Yanzhen was.
However, because there was still some distance between this place and the study, she could not see the situation there.
Just when she couldn't stand the cold anymore and decided to secretly go to the study to take a look, she finally saw a glimmer of light not far away.
Looking at the direction, it seems to be coming from the direction of the study.
She immediately stood up excitedly.
At the same time, the person in the direction of the faint light said in a cold voice, "Who is coming?"
