"I rely on Her Highness the Princess to be smart. I only gave you a little persuasion. I really don't dare to take credit!" Baochai replied extremely humbly.
Yang Qingyin said with a smile: "If you have merit, you have merit. I will remember it in my heart and reward you in the future!"
Before Baochai could thank her, Yang Qingyin continued: "The prince wants to invite Sheng'er to be his guest. Please take Yuan Chun to tell Sheng'er!"
"yes!"
"It's nothing, you all can go back!"
"Yes... I am resigning!"
Having said too much today, Yang Qingyin was also very tired at the moment, so she took the opportunity to issue an ejection order.
When the three of them bowed and left, Chen Zhi and Yuan Chun walked in front, while Baochai followed alone.
After leaving the main hall and entering the large courtyard, Chen Zhi stopped and turned around, taking a look at Baochai who was following behind him.
"They say that a fair lady is a good gentleman. Miss Xue is so beautiful. No wonder our thirteenth brother values her so much!"
If the opponent was not the princess, Baochai would definitely fight back, but unfortunately there was no if.
"Your Majesty, you are too honored. By chance, the little girl saved the Thirteenth Master in Jinling, so she was taken care of by the Thirteenth Master!"
"Really? I don't think it's that simple. I heard that you are still teaching Lao Shisan how to play chess?"
Looking at Yuanchun aside, Chen Zhi's smile became brighter: "I know that Thirteenth Brother has always been a person who can't sit still. If he is willing to sit down and learn chess with peace of mind, it shows that you have... something special about you! "
In the end, Chen Zhi still saved face for Baochai and didn't speak too bluntly.
She and her husband were determined to win over Zhu Jinghong, and giving Baochai face was equivalent to giving Zhu Jinghong face. Chen Zhi still thought of this.
"Baochai, I asked you to take me to see Sheng'er, let's not delay here!" Yuanchun finished.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zhi said: "It won't be long before morning or evening. Are you cousins only allowed to talk, but not me and Miss Xue?"
Caught between these two people, Baochai felt dizzy for a moment, because this was a completely innocent disaster, and he was just a little attendant!
At this time, Yuan Chun answered: "Who said you are not allowed to talk? It's just that my sister is shy and I'm just afraid of making you laugh!"
Baochai simply said nothing because she couldn't afford to offend these two people.
"Shy? Fortunately, my sister is related to Miss Xue, but she doesn't understand her at all. How can she be valued by the queen... how can she be like you said!"
"Okay, okay, I can't talk to you. If you have anything to say, just say it. I'll just wait!" Yuanchun smiled and exited the chat.
In fact, it's not that she can't say it, it's all just because she is the crown prince's concubine, and she doesn't have enough confidence to face Chen Zhiran.
"Girl, it's rare for my thirteenth brother to be able to calm down. You have to tie him up and let him learn some poetry and scriptures to avoid being caught and beaten by the Holy One again!"
Tie him down? Does this sound too strange?
"Your Majesty, what the Thirteenth Master likes is not something that I can control!"
"That's not necessarily the case. Don't be humble. If you can make Thirteenth Brother calm down and study, you have already achieved merit!"
"A Sheng'er, a thirteenth brother...it's really hard for you. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me. We can't let the hero feel cold!"
There is no doubt that Chen Zhi wants to win over Baochai and exert influence on Zhu Jinghong through her.
I had long heard that Princess Rui was a warm-hearted person, but now it seems that it is indeed true to the rumors... Baochai thought secretly in her heart.
Having such a judgment is not because Baochai is stupid, but because Chen Zhi's brain circuit has gone around in such a big circle that normal people really can't figure it out.
"Okay, okay, I won't delay you anymore. We will still have a chance to talk in the future..."
After saying this, Chen Zhi turned to Yuan Chun and said slowly: "Sister, I'll take my leave first!"
"Sister, walk slowly!"
On the surface, the two sisters-in-law seem to be in perfect harmony.
However, when Chen Zhi left the Kunning Gate, Yuan Chun suppressed his smile, looked at Baochai aside and said, "Sister Xue, she is the most talkative person, so you have to be careful and be careful not to be taken advantage of by her!"
Baochai nodded, of course she would be wary of Chen Zhi, but at the same time...she didn't trust Yuan Chun too much.
Just because there are few people in this palace who are trustworthy.
"Thank you for the tip, ma'am!"
Hearing this, Yuanchun smiled and said: "What empress? I am your aunt and cousin, just call me sister!"
"yes!"
"By the way, I heard that Baoyu has a lot of rules lately. Is that true?"
Yuan Chun still cared about her biological brother, but to avoid suspicion, she had little communication with the Rongguo Mansion and was not very clear about the changes in the family.
The last time Jia Zhen's incident happened, Dong Gong was just a hindsight, but fortunately, it ended properly in the end.
"In recent days, my uncle has tightened his control over him. Brother Bao has certainly behaved himself a lot!"
Baochai said this, but in fact he sneered at Jia Baoyu.
She doesn't like the man at all who doesn't want to make contributions and build a career, but just hangs out among the fairies and beauties all day long.
As a cousin, she had some love for Jia Baoyu, so she admonished Baoyu regardless of her dignity.
Unexpectedly, this guy doesn't know what's good and what's good. Since the last trouble, Baochai just regarded Baoyu as a passerby.
"That's good. He has been very talented since he was a child. If he devotes himself to studying in the future, he will definitely have a bright future!"
Listening to Yuanchun's words, Baochai had other thoughts in mind.
In her opinion, if the prince becomes emperor, Jia Baoyu will still have a future no matter how useless he is, but if...
During her stay in the palace, Baochai heard and saw a lot, and had a good understanding of the royal family's situation.
It was unclear to her whether the prince could ascend the throne, so she only felt that Yuanchun was too naive.
In fact, Yuanchun knew these truths very well, and what he just said was nothing more than a sister's good expectations for her brothers.
When he was in a good mood, Yuanchun took Baochai and said, "Let's go to see Sheng'er!"
"Sister, please!" Baochai was extremely polite. She knew her identity very well.
The two entered the palace, and when Yuan Chun explained the situation, Zhu Yunsheng jumped up with joy.
Being locked up within the palace walls, her desire for freedom was unparalleled, so she was naturally happy to have a trip to the East Palace.
"In the afternoon, you all can come along and we can talk together!" Zhu Yunsheng said to several attendants.
"Sister-in-law, when are we leaving?" Obviously, Zhu Yunsheng couldn't wait.
At this time Yuanchun asked: "Have you finished all your homework today?"
"Of course, if you don't believe me, just ask them!" Zhu Yunsheng pointed at the attendants.
When Yuanchun greeted Zhu Yunsheng to leave, Zhang Xin, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace, came to Chengmingyuan alone.
Entering Zhu Jinghong's yard, a group of young eunuchs had finished their work and were chatting in the sun on the porch.
"Eunuch Zhang... why are you here?"
It was Yu Hai who spoke. Today it was Deng An who followed him to Shanglin Garden, leaving him to "look after the house".
"Is Master Thirteen here?"
Yu Hai replied: "The Thirteenth Master is in Shanglin Garden. If you have anything to say to your father-in-law, please tell me directly. I will send someone to convey it to you!"
Zhang Xin replied: "The Crown Prince is hosting a banquet this afternoon and inviting the Thirteenth Master to the East Palace to enjoy the flowers!"
Zhu Yunsheng was asked to provide cover, so it was Yuan Chun who invited him to make it more "big fanfare".
As for inviting Zhu Jinghong, it should be kept low-key, and it would be best for Prince Rui to think it was a drop-in invitation.
I saw Yu Hai ordering the young eunuch on the side: "Chen San, go to Shanglin Garden and bring the message to the Thirteenth Master!"
"yes!"
Zhang Xin interrupted at the right time: "I'm waiting for the letter here. I must bring the message to you and remind Master Thirteen to come on time!"
