For a long time, although Yan Qiu lived in Youwang's Mansion with Zhao Jin, Cui Yun thought about his identity, and the two rarely interacted with each other on weekdays.

But today, she scolded Minghua, who was serving closely beside her, and invited Yan Qiu to go to the water pavilion in the afternoon.

At this time, the lotus flowers in the lake have already been grateful, and only some residual lotus is left in the water, I heard that this is the meaning of His Royal Highness the King of You. Although he didn't say the reason, Yan Qiu probably guessed it. The ancients have always been elegant, and His Royal Highness the King of Youwang is even more graceful, presumably to follow the example of the predecessors of "leave the residual lotus to listen to the sound of the rain"!

I don't know what this princess invited her to do this time, they have never been in contact with each other, and her abrupt invitation this time made Yan Qiu a little curious.

It's just that no matter how much she doubts in her heart, she also has a smile on her face and happily agrees to the appointment.

Facing the turquoise lake, Cui Yun asked the maid to make tea, and stretched out her slender jade hand and said: "This is green tea, take the buds on the top of the leaves, can Miss Yan still eat it?" ”

Yan Qiu's face was embarrassed, she was a rough person, let her check it, it was really a joke. "The princess's things are good tea, just let the concubine taste the tea, it is a cow chewing peonies."

Cui Yun smiled: "Miss Yan is humble when she says this." ”

Yan Qiu smiled awkwardly, then looked left and right, and asked with some hesitation: "I don't know what the princess called the concubine to come here?" ”

Seeing Yan Qiu go up like this, Cui Yun put down the teacup, took the handkerchief offered by Minghua and wiped the corners of her mouth and said, "Since this is the case, then I will also say it directly, Miss Yan must not blame." Presumably, Miss Yan also knows that the sixth brother is already weak, but there is no serious side concubine or concubine around her, which makes me and His Royal Highness also worried. She sat on her upper hand with a fan in her hand.

It's late autumn, and now this fan is just for decoration.

Yan Qiu was stunned when she heard this, she thought about it a lot and didn't guess that Princess You came to her to say this. But after a moment of stunnedness, she restrained her expression.

"The concubine is just a concubine in the palace, and she doesn't dare to ask too much about other things." Yan Qiu smiled slightly, suppressing the sourness in his heart.

"I also know that it's just that the sixth brother is stubborn, and you are a lovely person by his side, so he must listen to your words." Cui Yun smiled gently, graceful and luxurious, and atmospheric.

This is to let her persuade His Royal Highness to accept the side concubine! Yan Qiu pursed the corners of her mouth and smiled violently: "The concubine's status is low, and she doesn't dare to talk to His Royal Highness, the princess has found the wrong person." ”

She refused directly, although she would offend Cui Yun, but now in this case, she is stupid if she agrees. Originally, she couldn't accept Zhao Jin's future marriage and concubine, and now let her be the one who persuades Zhao Jin, who is this disgusting?

Besides, this makes her persuade, maybe His Highness will be disappointed in her, after all, this man is sometimes very inscrutable in his heart.

"Miss Yan, this is not right, the sixth brother was spoiled by you earlier, and now that you are pregnant, you should be considerate of the sixth brother." And so he said it explicitly.

Yan Qiu sneered, this matter should not have been for Cui Yun, who was a sister-in-law, but for some reason she took on this kind of errand.

At this time, Yan Qiu didn't know that Xun Song had already mentioned this matter to Zhao Jin, but he felt that Cui Yun had gone a little too far. After all, how can a big family be a sister-in-law and care about the affairs of the little uncle's house, let alone a royal family who is particularly face-saving.

"I'm afraid that the concubine can't do it, the princess should still order someone else!" Yan Qiu put down the teacup, saluted and took Cai Wei away, not caring about Cui Yun's face.

If you offend Cui Yun, it's okay for her, but Cui Yun can't still run to take eye medicine with His Royal Highness! And now that they are guests in the Ji Palace, with His Royal Highness here, she can't do anything else to embarrass herself.

Looking at the slender back in the distance, Cui Yun had no annoyance on her face. Even if she was swept away, she was dignified and had a gentle smile on her face.

"Princess, the Yan family is gone like this, what should I do next?" Minghua stood behind Cui Yun with no expression on his face.

"Heh, I didn't expect that Yan was a little smart, and she wasn't fooled, I used to think that she was soft, but now it seems to be hidden." When she went to Fengshan, Yan Qiu didn't say a word, she thought she was stupid.

"Yes! can grasp the heart of the sixth brother, how can she be a stupid woman? Cui Yun looked at the pattern on the handkerchief in her hand, as if she wanted to see a flower.

After a long time, she smiled and said: "Go and send back the things sent by the Xunfu, and say that I am the sister-in-law of His Royal Highness, and at this time Yu Li is not in harmony." After saying that, he got up and walked straight to his yard, ignoring the maidservants behind him.

Minghua was ordered to follow behind, and the rest of the maids who were guarding outside the water pavilion also followed her in a hurry.

"By the way, go and give my pair of green jade bracelets to Miss Yan, and say that they will fit her clothes very well." Cui Yun paused and commanded lightly.

"Yes." Minghua was attentive and respectfully responded. The master's order continued, and she naturally understood the meaning, so Yan Qiu, who had just returned to Ningyuanzhai, saw the maidservant beside Cui Yun respectfully giving a sandalwood box.

Although she was puzzled, she still smiled and gave Minghua a gift and sent Minghua away.

After Minghua left, the corners of her mouth that had been smiling were lowered and pursed into a straight line.

The moment she opened the box, a stream of emerald color jumped into her eyes, eye-catching, and after seeing the jewelry that His Royal Highness bought for her, she was still amazed.

The pair of green jade bracelets looked so lushy and warm that people wanted to wear them.

"These bracelets?" Cai Wei on the side saw it and frowned.

Hearing this, Yan Qiu turned his head and asked, "Could it be that you recognize this bracelet?" ”

"Master Hui, this jade bracelet is called green jade, which is a relic of the Empress Dowager Xiaoci of the previous dynasty. I heard that it was given to the Cui family at that time, but I didn't expect to marry Princess You. Cai Wei said with a frown.

"Oh~" Yan Qiu was stunned, but he didn't expect Cui Yun to give himself such a valuable gift, and it was after he offended her.

"Princess You is really favored at home." Yan Qiu looked at the jade box on the table, and said with a smile for a long time. "Take it! When His Highness comes back in the evening, let His Highness decide. ”

As for Princess You's inconsistent actions, Yan Qiu was puzzled, but with her identity, she could only be suspicious and suspicious, and she couldn't make other moves.

Zhao Jin did not go out today, but met guests in the front yard with Zhao Shen, and ate there at noon, and did not come back until Shen Shi.

"Your Highness will come back early today, and this is the time to apply." Yan Qiu took the cloak for Zhao Jin and hung it aside, saying a gentle drizzle.

"What happened today?" Zhao Jin turned around and sat on the soft couch, picked up the teacup and poured it hard.

"Your Highness also knows?" Yan Qiu glanced at him with a touch of style.

"You weren't like that in the past." Zhao Jin just took a sip this time and didn't say anything more. Can he say she's too attentive today? If she really said that, she would be going to blow up again.

For Yan Qiu's temper, he has learned a lot in the past few days, and he is really afraid of her. Besides, looking at her attentive appearance, it's not bad. His Royal Highness King Ji picked up the notebook that Yan Qiu read, and his eyes were full of smiles.

"What's wrong with the concubine in the past?" Yan Qiu said with a weak heart, she also knew in her heart that she had a slightly bigger temper after she was pregnant, and every time she lost her temper, she blushed and had a weak heart. I don't know if His Highness actually endured it like this, which made her more and more weak.

"It's nothing, it's just that Princess You gave me a pair of jade bracelets today, listening to Caiwei talk about the calendar, I think it's a little precious, you see...... Do you want to send it back? Yan Qiu also sat on the soft couch and talked about business to change the topic.

"Oh, you can take what the imperial sister-in-law gave you!" He didn't ask what it was, he just said so.

"But the pair of jade bracelets are green jade, and I heard that they are the relics of the Empress Dowager Xiaoci of the previous dynasty. I'm holding ...... I'm afraid it's too expensive. Yan Qiu hesitated.

"Nothing." Zhao Jin took Yan Qiu's hand and said indifferently, as if it was just a pair of ordinary jade bracelets.

"Yes." Seeing Zhao Jin say this, she felt relieved. It's just that I still can't figure out what Princess Yu means.

"How do you feel today, do you feel unwell?" Zhao Jin looked at Yan Qiu's belly, and it was rare to bring some curiosity.

"Well, Your Highness can ask this question several times a day." Yan Qiu smiled and moved. In the first two days, when she heard the news of her pregnancy, His Highness's strange expression made her think that he didn't want her to have this child, and it wasn't until he cared about her every day that she put her mind at ease.

Zhao Jin touched Yan Qiu's head and didn't speak again.

It's just that after Yan Qiu dragged his sleeve to sleep at night, Zhao Jin quietly got up and went outside.

In the late autumn night, the cold wind is whistling, and the black hem of the clothes is raised with the wind, blending into the night.

"What happened today?" Zhao Jin stood with his hands in his hands, unaware of the cold night wind, and asked with a cold face.

"It was Princess You who invited her master over, and then mentioned the matter of accepting a side concubine for His Royal Highness." The breath of Cai Wei is extremely light, and if you don't look carefully, you can't detect it at all.

"Go on."

"Princess You wants the master to persuade you to accept the side concubine, but the master is unwilling, so she parted a little unhappily." Cai Wei told the truth.

Zhao Jin turned the wrench in his hand and muttered for a long time before saying, "Go down!" Tonight's business does not need to be mentioned to your master. ”

When Cai Wei heard this, she retreated.

Is this afraid that he will ignore her after accepting the side concubine? It's really a habit of pleasing people.

Standing outside, Zhao Jin shook his head with a smile, and went back after a while.

When he got up on the second day, he saw that Yan Qiu was still diligent, and he didn't stop him, so he watched Yan Qiu work around him, unless it was some heavy work that let her go.

It's just that she is pregnant, and Zhao Jin doesn't dare to let Yan Qiu do anything else, nothing more than serving tea and pouring water, handing something, or grinding in the study.

Within a day, Yan Qiu was a little reluctant to do it, and Zhao Jin was not reluctant.
