The third princess stopped and stood in front of Young Master Liu and Chen Jie.
He casually glanced at their faces and neatly dressed clothes, and the uneasy mood in his heart completely calmed down. He smiled sweetly and sat down on the stone bench beside him.
"Sister-in-law, husband, you two should sit down and talk, don't you feel tired after standing for a long time?"
"Ye'er has just ascended the throne. His affairs cannot be explained clearly in a few words. If you keep talking, you can still stand."
Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and nodded, giving Chen Jie a gesture of invitation. The more the third princess was here, the more he had to abide by etiquette.
Although he has been crowned the king, Chen Jie is still the Queen Mother of the current dynasty, and he always has to bow his head in front of her.
Chen Jie moved gracefully and sat next to the third princess, holding a pot to pour wine for the third princess.
The third princess hurriedly picked up the wine glass and went to take the jug: "Thank you, sister-in-law, the emperor. Next time, if you want to drink, you can just do it yourself. How dare you trouble the sister-in-law to pour the wine in person?"
The third princess spoke impeccably and slowly put down the wine glass in her hand.
Liu Mingzhi sat across from the two women and did not interrupt. He knew what kind of woman the third princess was and was able to deal with Chen Jie, the Queen Mother, without any pressure.
Chen Jie raised her wine glass and signaled it to the third princess, and the two girls put down their wine glasses without tasting anything.
Chen Jie glanced vaguely at Young Master Liu, and looked at the third princess with a chuckle: "Third sister, the Ai family remembers that you just left the palace and returned to the palace, why did you come back to the palace again? And you are here at the Ai family. , is there anything important?"
The third princess's soft eyes fell on Young Master Liu, and the affection in her eyes could not be concealed.
Lifting the serving chopsticks, she picked up a piece of meat for her husband and put it on the plate in front of her. The third princess sighed helplessly.
"Sister-in-law, it's not because of this stupid husband that my little sister comes back."
"Sister-in-law, you don't know that my little sister's husband has a good reputation both in court and among the people, but he is actually a real road fool!"
"In a slightly larger place, you will become confused after just a few turns, and you won't know what's going on, what's going on, what's going, what's going, what's going, what's going, and what's going on."
"My little sister heard that he was summoned into the palace by the emperor's sister-in-law, and she was afraid that he would get lost in the palace with his confused temperament."
"The sky is about to get dark, and the palace gates will be blocked in half an hour. If this big fool accidentally gets lost in the palace and is passed on by some ill-spoken palace maids and eunuchs, he will have no excuses. .”
"A healthy man stays in the palace for one night, not to mention his husband and a foreign minister. Even the second brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother cannot escape punishment."
"This little girl thinks that she has been born in the palace since she was a child, and she is familiar with the palace's path."
"In order to cause some unnecessary trouble, I have to come and pick him up in person."
"I hope the emperor's sister-in-law won't take offense to my little sister's uninvited visit."
"Having a little sister by your side is a good thing for you, sister-in-law, and for your husband."
"After all, the emperor's brother has just achieved great success, and my sister-in-law is now a widow. The recent events in the court have caused people to panic, so it's better to pay attention."
"Sister-in-law should also understand that people's words are scary. Does sister-in-law think this is the truth?"
The third princess smiled lightly and spoke, her words were quite profound, and she didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional.
I don't even know if it's for Young Master Liu or Chen Jie.
Watching the third princess raise her wine glass and peck it lightly, Chen Jie's eyes lingered on Young Master Liu for a few times with an unnatural expression. She quickly put it back before the third princess put down the wine glass and returned to normal.
Maybe the third princess said it was unintentional.
However, I couldn't bear the fact that Chen Jie, a thoughtful person, had a guilty conscience, and she always felt that there was something in the third princess's words.
After all, I just threw myself into the arms of my brother-in-law Liu Mingzhi in the palace, which was really not a glorious thing.
It can even be said to be against women's ethics and shameless.
As the emperor's sister-in-law, but in front of her sister-in-law and her husband, I am afraid that not many people in the world can do such a thing.
But........
Chen Jie silently felt gloomy in her heart, and the gloominess in her eyes flashed away.
Who can understand my own difficulties?
If his son could be like his father and husband in the court, able to control the civil and military affairs of the court and secure the throne, why would he do such an unbecoming act?
In the final analysis, he was still not strong enough to keep the throne for the emperor.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in her heart.
Involuntary thoughts kept popping up in my mind.
Chen Jie smiled self-deprecatingly and nodded slightly to the third princess.
"What I'm saying is that the Ai family didn't think well and asked my brother-in-law to come to the palace at this time to discuss matters. I hope I don't take it personally. The Ai family is also too worried about Ye'er's affairs."
"Ye'er has been close to you since she was a child. I think you can understand the behavior of a mother losing her mind for the sake of her child."
The third princess noticed the worry on the eyebrows of Chen Jie, the emperor's sister-in-law, and felt a little regretful in her heart, hurriedly waving her hands.
"Sister-in-law, I don't have any other intentions. Don't forget it."
"You also know that every move of our royal family is an example for the people of the world. My little sister really doesn't mean to target my sister-in-law by saying these things."
"Ye'er has just ascended the throne, and the situation in the DPRK and China is unclear. There is nothing wrong in being careful."
"The Ai family understands that the Ai family has already discussed it with my brother-in-law before you came. The remaining things are just some things to fill in the gaps. With my brother-in-law's many years of experience as an official, he will definitely be able to handle this matter very well."
Chen Jie looked at Young Master Liu and said, "Brother-in-law, the harem is not allowed to interfere with politics. This is the ancestral precept of Emperor Taizu Gao. The Ai family dare not disobey it. My brother-in-law will have to worry about the emperor's affairs from now on."
"It's getting late and the palace gate is about to be sealed, so the Ai family will go back first. You should also go back to the house early to avoid being seen and criticized."
Liu Mingzhi nodded silently, stood up and saluted.
"Don't worry, Sister-in-law, I will do my best to support Your Majesty. It's getting late, Sister-in-law, please go slowly."
The third princess also stood up in a hurry and bowed: "Sister-in-law, please go slowly."
Looking at Chen Jie walking towards Yi'an Palace, Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and nodded to the third princess.
"Yan'er, let's go back. It's a blessing that you came, otherwise my husband might really get lost in the complicated path of the palace."
The third princess tapped her finger on Young Master Liu's forehead: "Foolish husband, everyone in the world can get lost, but the harem must not get lost. The court has undergone great changes, and people's hearts are complicated."
"You have ascended to the throne and are already at the forefront of the storm. There are countless people who are jealous of you. You must not act as unscrupulously as before in the future."
"When eldest brother was in office, I could still carry it for you. Ye'er can't take care of himself now, so how can I carry it for you?"
"A tiger cannot stand up to a pack of wolves. For the sake of profit, some people will ignore anything."
"The closer it gets to this time, the more careful you should be."
"There's no need to blame someone if you want to!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded happily, looked around and found no trace of anyone, and quickly tapped the third princess's lips.
"Good Yan'er, let's go home. I don't feel comfortable staying in this harem for my husband."
"good!"
The third princess glanced at the deserted Xiyuan, then delicately held her husband's hand and shook it.
"I've been running back and forth in the palace twice, and I'm tired!"
"My husband is carrying you, but you have to come down after leaving Xiyuan. Be careful if others see you and say you are unruly."
The third princess smiled and rushed towards her husband's back.
Mr. Liu bent down in a familiar manner, took the third princess's smooth and slender thighs and walked towards the palace gate.
The third princess, who put her chin on her husband's shoulder and smiled, suddenly smelled the elegant fragrance of Young Master Liu that did not belong to her husband's masculine scent.
Her eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and she glanced back in the direction of Yi'an Palace behind her. She gently put her arms around Young Master Liu's neck, and rubbed her pretty face against Young Master Liu's face for a few times.
"Husband, you must know right from wrong in life."
"Today's world has changed, and you must think twice before doing certain things."
"Some people only think what they see and don't care why!"
"They don't care whether you are innocent or not. They only want to step on you to get higher. What does your life and death have to do with them!"
"In this turbulent world, don't trust anyone but yourself."
"Even if there are a few concubines and sisters, a woman's sensibility can easily soften her heart. She might confuse other people one day and do something unkind to her husband."
"Even if our husband doesn't blame us, we will feel uneasy!"
