In Duanhua's opinion, although Xie Lin's appearance was not bad, it was still a bit displeasing to her.
Her mother also considered Xie Lin, but she rejected it immediately. Xie Lin liked Qin Luan, but she knew it, and she didn't want it. What's more, when Zhou Gu stopped her from forcing her back to Beijing on the way to Jiangning County, Xie Lin not only refused to help her, but also laughed at her, so she would not consider him.
At least, during those years when she was pestering Zhou Gu, the prince's cousin had a headache when he faced her and pestered Zhou Gu, but he never saw her laugh and only scolded her.
And Su Xingze, when she was scolding Su Rong so madly, he didn't say anything, he just ignored her.
She sighed again, she was so worried.
Arriving at Ye Qiuying's yard, Ye Qiuying was still in class, and the female teacher was teaching Ye Qiuying how to play the piano.
Duanhua walked to the door, stopped, and said dissatisfiedly to Xiao Chengzi: "Why didn't you say that Xiao Qiuying was in class?"
Little Chengzi said innocently, "get out of class is about to end."
After hearing this, Duan Hua sat on the stone pier at the door and whispered, "Then I'll just sit here and wait. Don't disturb them."
Xiao Chengzi can only keep company.
After waiting for about a moment, the sound of the piano stopped, and the female gentleman came out. When he saw the princess, he quickly greeted her. Duanhua waved his hand, stood up, and walked into the courtyard to look for Ye Qiuying.
Ye Qiuying was very happy to see Duan Hua coming, "Sister Princess."
Duan Hua reached out and pinched her face, "Xiao Qiuying, do you miss me?"
"I thought about it. I had a rest tomorrow, and I wanted to leave a message for you to go play with you. I didn't expect you to come here today." Ye Qiuying looked up at Duan Hua, "Why do you want to come here today? Me?"
"I came to the East Palace to see the prince's cousin. He's not here, so I just wanted to see you." Duan Hua said.
Ye Qiuying took Duan Hua's hand and entered the room, "Isn't His Highness the Crown Prince back yet?"
"without."
Ye Qiuying nodded, "His Royal Highness has been very busy since returning to Beijing."
Duan Hua naturally knew that Yan Huisheng was busy, but her marriage was also a big deal. If the royal princess couldn't get married, it would bring disgrace to the prince's face, right? Anyway, he has to take care of it.
Entering the back room, it felt warm immediately.
Ye Qiuying personally brought Duanhua a cup of tea. Seeing her rather sad face, she asked in a low voice: "Sister Princess, are you in any trouble?"
From her perspective at a young age, Duanhua was particularly happy, her parents were loving, the population of Princess Qingping's mansion was simple, and Duanhua was favored and could run rampant in Kyoto.
Duanhua nodded, holding a tea cup, and talked to Ye Qiuying, "I'm afraid I won't be able to get married."
"Ah? No way?" Ye Qiuying didn't believe this. Although the princess had a bad reputation in the past, her reputation has improved a bit now. When they heard that Princess Qingping started choosing her son-in-law, many people were secretly worried. I'm so excited to get in touch with the princess and want to be a county horse.
"Why not?" Duan Hua glanced at her and shook his head when he saw her surprised look, "I can't get married."
"Why?" Ye Qiuying couldn't figure it out.
"I can't find anyone as good-looking as Zhou Gu."
Ye Qiuying: "..."
She immediately said: "My little uncle is as good-looking as the little brother from the Zhou family."
"Your uncle is in Nanchu, and it's impossible for me to go to Nanchu. Even if I want to be lifelong friends with Su Rong, I can't go to Nanchu. Can your uncle get married?" Duan Hua looked at her.
Ye Qiuying shook her head vigorously, her little uncle wanted to be Nan Chu's minister.
"That's it." Duan Hua whispered, "So, I still have to beg the prince's cousin. Please beg him to put up a royal list for me to select beauties from all over the world."
Ye Qiuying: "..."
Although she was young, she still felt that Duan Hua thought too much, "Can His Highness the Crown Prince agree?"
"As long as he agrees, my mother's princess palace will send people to various places without the need for officials." Duan Hua has already thought about it, "If the court's resources are not used, he can't object, right?"
Ye Qiuying didn't know either, "Sister Princess, you have to beg His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Um."
Duan Hua and Ye Qiu Ying waited until it was almost dark, but did not wait for Yan Hui's reply.
Xiao Chengzi asked her, "Princess, His Highness the Crown Prince hasn't returned home yet, do you still want to wait?"
"Wait, I've been waiting for so long." Duan Hua didn't want to return without success.
"Then it's dinner time. Do you want to eat?" the little eunuch asked, "I ordered the food to be brought to Miss Ye. You and Miss Ye can share it together?"
"Okay." Duanhua was also hungry.
Little Chengzi nodded and immediately ordered people to go.
Not long after, Xiao Chengzi led someone to bring the food. Duanhua took a look and saw that it was quite rich.
After she and Ye Qiuying had a meal, it was completely dark.
The housekeeper came over and bowed his hands, "Princess, I'm afraid His Highness the Crown Prince will be back very late today."
Duan Hua said fiercely, "I won't go back today. I will live in the East Palace. Send someone to tell my mother."
The butler opened his eyes wide.
"Isn't it possible?" Duan Hua said confidently, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is my cousin. Can't I live in his mansion? The East Palace is so big, there is no place for me to live?"
"No..." The butler shook his head.
"Then you go and make arrangements. I will wait until later when the prince's cousin comes back." Duan Hua knew that Yan Huisheng was busy, but she learned from her father yesterday that he was afraid that he would be busy for a year in the future. What should she do? If she waits any longer, she will be an old girl. She won't be able to get married. Su Rong is about to get married, and she doesn't even have a fiancé yet. Her mother was pregnant, and it was important to ensure the safety of the fetus. Who would she ask for if she didn't ask him?
The housekeeper could only agree, "Then I will arrange a place for you now. Is it okay for you to live in the yard next to Miss Ye?"
"Okay." Duanhua nodded.
So the housekeeper hurried away.
Ye Qiuying whispered: "Sister Princess, you can actually live with me."
"No, you need to go to bed early. There are still classes tomorrow." Duanhua considered the little girl.
Ye Qiuying stopped talking.
The housekeeper quickly arranged the accommodation with the people, and Duan Hua immediately took the two maids out of Ye Qiuying's yard and went to her residence.
In the middle of the night, Yan Hui returned to the house, and the housekeeper immediately reported that Princess Duanhua had come to the East Palace. After waiting for a long time, His Highness the Crown Prince did not return, so she quickly told him that she wanted to live in the East Palace and wait for him.
Yan Huisheng paused, "Did you say anything about finding a lonely person?"
The butler shook his head.
Yan Huisheng rubbed his eyebrows and wanted to ask her to come to the study, but then he thought it was so late, so he gave up and changed his words: "Where does she live in the yard? I'll go look for her alone."
The housekeeper quickly led the way, "I have arranged her in the yard next to Miss Ye. I will accompany you."
Yan nodded in response.
Duanhua was already tired from waiting. She sat at the table and kept kowtowing to the wick. She gritted her teeth and thought, should she wait? But no, the prince's cousin was going to court tomorrow morning, so she had to wait all day in the East Palace?
Hearing the footsteps outside, the maid who was personally serving her looked out and was overjoyed, "Princess, His Royal Highness is back."
Duanhua suddenly trembled and woke up immediately. He stood up and ran out to meet him.
She finally got the person back.
