The eldest grandson sat in the carriage and closed his eyes to relax.
The interior of the carriage was decorated with luxurious silks, and even the curtains were embroidered with gold threads. Light blue smoke rose from the small incense burner on the table, and the smell was soothing and refreshing.
This was the car sent by the eldest princess to pick up Yun Xuezhi, but Yun Xuezhi had already entered the palace to interview the saint, and the person who met the eldest princess for him was the eldest grandson in the car.
The carriage entered the palace and soon stopped in front of the eldest princess's palace.
The eldest grandson got off the carriage and stood in front of the door, waiting for the servant to report.
"Yun Xuezhi didn't come? Are his staff coming?"
The eldest princess lay half-lying on the soft couch lazily, her green fingers unconsciously lingering between the cups.
"Yes, that's what the servant outside the door said." The maid replied respectfully, keeping her eyes on the floor and not daring to look up at the eldest princess.
As the eldest maid of the eldest princess, Jiu'er appeared to be more calm when she was accompanying the eldest princess. Seeing that the eldest princess had not spoken for a long time, she waved her hand to reject the maid below. She took a step closer and said, "Your Highness, this Yun Xuezhi is too ignorant. Well, you couldn’t even invite him for a special trip, so you sent some kind of staff, it’s really unreasonable..."
When the eldest princess heard this, she smiled lightly and said, "Okay Jiu'er, the emperor and I summoned him to the palace at the same time. Which side will you go to and which side will you not go?"
Jiuer was speechless.
"Then...Your Highness, have you met this staff member again?"
The eldest princess lifted herself up from the collapse and said softly: "Jian Yun and learning knowledge are just a casual move... I'm tired, let him go back."
After saying that, the eldest princess lay down again and held her forehead with her hands. She looked really sleepy.
At this time, it was still early and it was definitely not a time to feel sleepy, but the eldest princess had just met the Imperial Master. Although the meeting did not last long, the energy consumed was huge.
Even now, the eldest princess is still reviewing the meeting with the Imperial Master just now in her mind.
"What on earth is this old fox, Imperial Master, going to do at the Autumn Hunting Ground..."
Just thinking about this, Jiuer left and came back.
"Your Highness, that staff member refused to leave. He also said that he was not only Yun Xuezhi's staff member, but also a participant in the transformation of the dragon chariot. He designed the "shock absorber" Liu Xinyan mentioned. "
"Oh? He's still a talent." The eldest princess seemed to be a little interested.
"Your Highness, then...see you?"
The eldest princess raised her hand, and Jiu'er understood and immediately stepped forward to help the eldest princess sit up.
"The sleepiness has gone away after a while. In that case, let's meet."
Jiu'er received the reply and waved to the servants to lead Zhang Sun in. At the same time, he waved to the maids on both sides.
The maid next to him immediately brought up a screen to block the collapse.
…
The eldest grandson stood in front of the screen and could vaguely see the eldest princess half-lying on the soft couch behind the screen.
The eldest grandson did not dare to keep his eyes on the graceful figure, and lowered his head to salute the eldest princess respectfully.
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess. Xiaomin is Lord Yun Xuezhi's staff, and his name is...Wangcai..."
"Wangcai? A lovely name."
Changsun was really embarrassed to say this name that Wu Dakui casually chose.
And Jiu'er beside the screen couldn't help laughing.
"Jiu'er, don't be rude!" the eldest princess scolded softly.
Changsun laughed dryly and said, "Your Highness is laughing."
"No, the name Wangcai will let people know that you are a loyal and obedient servant."
I will definitely kill Wu Dakui when I go back!
This is Changsun's inner thought, but on the surface he appears obedient.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Did Yun Xuezhi go to the Holy Sage?"
Yun Xuezhi's whereabouts must not be hidden from the eldest princess, and the eldest grandson did not want to pretend to be stupid in front of the eldest princess.
"Back to Your Highness, Master Yun did go to the Holy Sage, so I was specially sent to apologize to Your Highness. I hope Your Highness will not blame you..."
Before the eldest grandson could finish speaking, the eldest princess’s cold voice
It came from behind the screen.
"Then do you think I will blame you?"
The eldest grandson was a little nervous. For a big man who didn't know his emotions and anger, maybe he didn't need a reason to be angry even if he killed him.
"The little people deserve to die. Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is so kind-hearted and loves the people like a son. How can she be blamed for such a trivial matter? The little people are so narrow-minded that they presume to make false assumptions about Your Highness. Please be punished by Your Highness."
The eldest princess's chuckle came from behind the screen, "He is quite a smart man."
After hearing this, the eldest grandson breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he understood that he was likely to be rejected when he came here, and being rejected was not the worst result.
Just like Jiu'er said, if a big shot like the eldest princess didn't even dare to make a special trip, and instead sent a staff member, wouldn't that be a clear sign of perfunctory treatment for the eldest princess.
Without knowing who the eldest princess was, the eldest grandson's trip was indeed a bit risky.
If the eldest princess is a moody master, the words she just said may be a reason for her to vent her anger.
Now it seems that Changsun has passed the most dangerous level.
The eldest princess continued: "I heard from Jiu'er that you also participated in the transformation of the dragon chariot?"
"yes."
"Did you design that shock absorber?"
"yes."
"Okay, he is a rare talent!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The eldest princess paused for a moment and got to the point, "Tell me, what are you doing here?"
"The first purpose of Xiaomin's trip has just been mentioned. The second purpose is to recommend myself to His Highness."
"Recommend yourself?" The eldest princess couldn't help but chuckle.
Jiu'er also laughed a little. This person didn't look smart or stupid, but he seemed to be a fool in doing this now.
"What kind of place do you think this is, that a person can recommend himself?" Jiu'er scolded unceremoniously.
The eldest grandson naturally knew that what he did was foolish, but without knowing the eldest princess, this was the most direct way to open up the situation.
Sure enough, the eldest grandson made the right bet again!
The eldest princess's cold tone came from behind the screen.
"Oh? Tell me."
The eldest grandson thought about it for a long time, and Jiu'er was impatient with the wait. Just when he was about to scold him again, the eldest grandson spoke: "Xiaomin came in just now to introduce himself. I am Mr. Yun's staff, so I have also been involved in the entire Tang Huaian case. Involved."
"I know this."
The eldest grandson's guess was correct. In fact, the eldest princess and the emperor knew everything about the progress of his case.
"So, I also know something about Akikari..."
The eldest grandson paused for a moment, wanting to observe the eldest princess's reaction.
But nothing changed behind the screen, and the eldest princess didn't even change her posture.
However, the eldest grandson did not expect the eldest princess to react just by hearing such a sentence, so he continued: "The spiritual weapon of the deceased family was found in the autumn hunting field, and the people think this matter is not trivial. Your Highness is on the list of this autumn hunting. I am worried about His Highness's safety, so I want to do my best."
The eldest princess reacted when she heard this. She sat up straight, as if she was interested.
The eldest princess' tone was a little playful, "Oh? How do you plan to help me?"
"Some time ago, Mr. Liu Xinyan came to ask for two quotas for the Autumn Hunting Tour, and I am lucky enough to be one of them."
"Oh, it turns out the other person is you." Five
"Your Highness, if I can accompany you on the autumn hunt, I will definitely protect your safety, Your Highness..."
Before the eldest grandson could finish expressing his "loyalty", the eldest princess interrupted him.
"Do you think my safety will be threatened? The survivors?"
When the eldest princess spoke of the "survivors", her tone no longer sounded like a question, but instead sounded like a sneer.
"Not only the survivors, but Qiu Shou... the situation is complicated, and no one can know in advance who will have the last laugh... I think your highness, if you have more strength, you may have one more choice..."
"Ding ding ding..."
This is the sound made by the eldest princess's fingers tapping the cup.
If there was no screen at this time, the eldest grandson would be able to see the eldest princess's eyes suddenly become sharp.
The eldest grandson was under tremendous pressure at this time. Every time the eldest princess hit the cup, the sound was like a heavy hammer hitting the eldest grandson's heart.
"Ding!"
The eldest princess stopped what she was doing, and then her eyes became lazy again.
"You're right."
"Huh..." Changsun let out a long sigh of relief.
In fact, Changsun has been gambling since he came in. If he makes a mistake in his bet, he may not be able to escape unscathed today.
"Tell me, what do you want?" the eldest princess said casually.
The eldest grandson gave himself a breath again, "I just want to do my best for your highness..."
"Stop talking nonsense and get to the point!"
"Yes. I just want to know more information about Qiu Shou, so that I can help His Highness solve problems during Qiu Shou."
"Oh, I found that Wangcai is not simple. Not only are you smart, but you are also very deep."
"Your Highness, you are so wise. Your Highness, you are so smart and sharp-eyed. How can a commoner dare to think anything in front of His Highness? Every word he speaks comes from the bottom of his heart..."
"Na na na, that's how it is now. When you first came in, you were outspoken and looked like a stupid young man. Now when you ask for something, you don't forget to flatter and show loyalty. You are an old fool!"
Although the eldest princess said this, her tone seemed a bit more intimate.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. You are right. Since you are going to accompany me, of course you need to know some information about Qiugi in advance. Then I will tell you some things you can know..."
"This time the Qiu Shou survivors will indeed take action, but the survivors have nothing to fear. In the hinterland of the dynasty, they cannot make any waves. If you follow me, you don't have to worry about the survivors."
The eldest grandson's pupils shrank, especially the last sentence, which basically convinced the eldest grandson that the eldest princess had an affair with the surviving family member.
"As for the other possible threats you mentioned... I will reward you as much as you can help me eliminate them afterwards."
The eldest grandson was stunned for a moment, and then asked impatiently: "Your Highness, do you mean the National Master, or the Emperor...?"
After the eldest grandson finished speaking, he immediately regretted it. Now was not the time for the final quarrel. How could the eldest princess tell him this so easily? He might even be labeled as a rumor monger by the eldest princess.
However, the eldest princess obviously had no intention of continuing the performance, and said with great interest: "Look, it's here again, like a stunned teenager."
The eldest grandson shut his mouth, knowing that he had made a mistake.
"Wangcai, you are also a smart person. Do you think the value you have shown is worthy of the questions you asked?"
"Okay, step back, I'm tired."
…
"This should be going well..." Changsun looked at Yun Xuezhi and said.
