Mrs. Xue saw that the two of them had taken their conversation elsewhere, and was secretly worried, preparing to bring the conversation back to the subject. By chance, the lady in scarlet clothes asked a question, causing her to raise her eyebrows involuntarily:
"Who else could it be? At the flower party that day, how much Xiao Tanhua admired the woman who won the first place. Does anyone present know that?"
"Mrs. Gao, are you talking about Taifu Lin's granddaughter?"
"The one who was stabbed by the second prince, sent to Cang Sheng Mountain to recuperate, and was just praised by Concubine Ming in the hall?"
Mrs.
The lady in scarlet clothes was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth and looked around. When no one was listening, she asked in a low voice:
"Then isn't Miss Lin the person that His Highness is interested in? Does Xiao Tanhua dare to rob her?"
Mrs. Xue glanced at the rockery with her peripheral vision: "It's not like you haven't seen Miss Lin in the house just now. She has such a beautiful face and such a family background. What man can't be tempted after seeing that? I heard that Xiao Tanhua, but I stay at Miss Lin’s usual place every day just to see Miss Lin.”
"Then His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't care?"
Mrs. Xue: "How can Your Highness take care of unmarried men and unmarried women?"
"Didn't you say that Miss Lin often goes to the Prince's Mansion? Hasn't His Highness the Prince decided on this matter yet?"
Mrs. Xue: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince attaches great importance to affection and righteousness, and is very affectionate towards the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess is not feeling well in the battle, so His Highness must always take care of the Crown Princess."
The two ladies followed suit and praised him, saying that the prince's love for his wife was as deep as the ocean.
Mrs. Xue sighed: "It's a pity that Xiao Tanhua was so infatuated. It is said that on the day of the assassination, he finally arrived at Miss Lin, and the two of them chatted and joked for a while. But Xiao Tanhua was injured for many days, and Miss Lin never passed away. visit."
"In this case, isn't it that Miss Lin is trying to get along with Xiao Tanhua and His Highness the Crown Prince? When she saw Xiao Tanhua was injured and there was no hope of marriage, she immediately cut off contact?"
"I really didn't realize that Taifu Lin, as clean and clear as he was, could produce such a junior..."
Zhao Huaqiong, who was behind the rockery, no longer wanted to listen to the gossip of others. She got up and left with her maid angrily. The suppressed anger spurted out at this moment and could no longer be suppressed. At this moment, she just wanted to find Lin Jinyan. Tear her face apart.
Mr. Xue, who had been paying attention to the rockery, looked over and saw Zhao Huaqiong's angry back. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and turned around to continue chatting with the two ladies.
Zhao Huaqiong and his maid quickly looked around in the crowd, attracting everyone's attention.
After turning around and not seeing Lin Jinyan, Zhao Huaqiong gritted his teeth and said:
"Go and find Lin Jinyan for me. I have something to ask her!"
"Miss, Madam went to talk to his wife. Before leaving, she specifically asked the slaves to keep an eye on you..."
"Where's all this nonsense? Just go and do whatever you want!"
The two maids looked at each other helplessly, and after winking at each other, one of them said she was looking for someone, turned around and immediately went to find Madam Shangshu.
In the front yard, Chu Chengyao, Chu Chengping, the three brothers Gu Ruizhou, several children from aristocratic families, and An Zhixian were sitting and chatting.
During the chat, they mentioned that Chu Chengyao had already passed his age and had not yet become a concubine.
Chu Chengyao smiled and said: "Actually, I already have someone I like in my heart, but I don't know which family she is from yet."
Chu Chengping: "Brother Huang's words are very difficult to understand. Since he is his favorite, how could he not know about it?"
