Yang Weixiao was painting in the courtyard, and Jing Ci walked up to her and sat down in front of the desk in the courtyard.
"I heard that you were invited to the East Palace?"
"I can't hide anything from the third sister." Jing Ci smiled.
Yang Weiwei painted with her back to her, dual-purpose, "How is it?" β
"Third sister, Li Longji wants me to enter the East Palace......"
Yang Weixiao's movements suddenly stopped, and she turned to look at Jing Ci, "Then what do you think?" β
"Of course, I don't want to enter the East Palace, but I know very well who Li Longji is, and I'm afraid that he won't give up easily because of my unwillingness...... It's really a nuisance. Jing Ci frowned slightly, and his tone was full of distress.
"Or ...... You're going to leave this to me? β
"What is the third sister going to do?"
"Jing Ci, can you trust me?" Yang Weiwei asked her.
"You are my own sister, I don't believe you, who else can I trust?"
"That'll do."

Following.
A luxurious carriage ran from Yang's mansion to the mansion of Yang Weijiao's teacher Xue Ji, and in the carriage, Yang Weiwei wore a bright skirt, and her makeup was very delicate and beautiful, and the gorgeous dress was enough to cover up the shortcomings of her natural appearance.
"Sanniang, don't worry, the slaves and maids have inquired clearly, and the prince has set off for Xue's mansion." Yao Tao said on the side.
Yang Weiwei nodded, her expression was quiet, and her eyes were contemplative.
After a while, the carriage stopped at the gate of Xue's mansion.
Yang Weiwei is an acquaintance of Xue's mansion, and she will come several times a month, Xue Ji treats this extremely talented protΓ©gΓ© very well, allowing her to come and go freely, so she did not let the concierge pass it on, and went straight to the mansion.
As soon as she entered the house, a little servant stepped forward and bowed his head to her and whispered: "Yang Sanniang, the prince is chatting with Ah Lang in the study. β
Yang Weixiao nodded, "You tell the master that I went to the back garden and set up a chess game for him." β
"Yes." The little guy said respectfully.
Since Li Longji was transferred to Luzhou, Yang Weiwei has been Xue Ji's only student. In the past two years, she has followed Xue Ji to learn painting, one is serious guidance, the other is dedicated to learning, so that her painting level has been greatly improved.
Xue Ji treats this student he trained more than his own children, and sighs that even if his children have half of Yang Weiwei's talent. In addition to studying painting, in their spare time, they occasionally chatted about current affairs, which inspired Yang Weiwei a lot.
Back garden, birds singing and flowers.
Yang Weixiao sat down and began to skillfully lay out the chess game......
After a while, the men's hearty chatter and laughter gradually came from far and near.
Yang Weixiao's expression tightened, and she hurriedly glanced at Xiao Tao beside her.
Knowing this, she turned around and walked in the direction where the sound came from......
"The slave maid has seen the prince and Master Xue."
"Where's your lady?" Xue Ji asked.
"My lady is playing chess over there, and she is trapped by the chess game."
"Who is your lady?" Li Longji looked at Yao Tao, this person was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it all of a sudden.
Yao Tao smiled slightly, "The prince and noble people are forgetful, you have seen the slave maid, the slave maid is called Yao Tao, and my lady's surname is Yang." β
"Yang? Haha," Li Longji slapped his big hand, "I remembered, it's Yang Sanniang, right?" β
"Yes." β
"Yang Sanniang is your proud protΓ©gΓ©, Master, I'm curious, what chess game Yang Sanniang is trapped in." With that, Li Longji walked in the direction where Yang Weiwei was.
Xue Ji passed by the moment of the peach and glanced at her with appreciation.
After turning the corner, Li Longji saw a shadow sitting in front of the stone table, the man frowned slightly, staring at the chess game on the table motionless.
"Yang Sanniang."
When Yang Weixiao heard the sound, she immediately got up and blessed herself, "Weiwei has seen the prince." β
"Yang Sanniang doesn't need to be polite, let me see why you are trapped in the chess game." Li Longji strode forward and went straight to look at the game of chess on the table.
"Please also ask the prince for advice." She tried her best to hide the little excitement in her heart.
Li Longji stared at the chess game, and after a while, he made a direct move, "Isn't this going to solve the urgent need." β
"Hey, I didn't think of that! Wonderful! is worthy of being a prince, Wei Wei admires. Yang Weixiao suddenly smiled like a flower, and her eyes were all on him.
"Yang Sanniang's chess skills need to be improved."
"The prince is right." Yang Weiwei nodded and said slowly: "However, there is a specialization in the art industry. I wasn't good at chess, so I seemed to put all my talents into drawing. Oh, speaking of which, Jing Ci is too, his painting skills are a mess, but he can shoot an arrow. β
At the right time, a maid came up with a cup of tea and put it in front of Li Longji.
"What has Jing Ci been doing lately?" Li Longji took the tea ceremony in front of him.
"My sister is very willful, and she is so idle."
"It's quite willful," Li Longji nodded, "I heard that she listened to your sister the most?" β
"We are of the same father and mother, and we cannot be kissed any more. Over the years, in the huge mansion, only the two of us have depended on each other. Yang Weixiao's tone was soft, and her words were affirmative.
Li Longji lowered his eyes, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Since that's the case...... Jing Ci's age has already reached the age of leaving the cabinet, I don't know what your sister thinks? β
"If a woman should get married, if there is a good choice, I will naturally support it. It's a pity that the gentlemen who came to propose marriage, don't say anything, even I can't look down on her. β
"Then according to Yang Sanniang, how is it going down?" Li Longji said bluntly.
Even though she knew that he had this idea, as soon as his words came out, Yang Weixiao was still stunned, and her feelings in her heart were quite complicated.
After a while, Yang Weixiao pretended to be calm and said, "Talented and beautiful." β
When Li Longji heard this, his expression lit up.
Yang Weiwei forced a smile and tried her best to swallow the thousands of emotions in her heart, "In my opinion, the prince and Jing Ci are very compatible......"
"Thank you Yang Sanniang! In this case, can Yang Sanniang help me with this, help me lobby Jing Ci, and marry into the East Palace. β
Yang Weixiao, who had mixed feelings in her heart, lowered her eyes, covering her slightly moist eyes, and the man she liked actually said that he wanted to marry her sister.
"Yang Sanniang?"
She still hung her face and said in a low tone, "I'll try my best." β
"Then there is Lao Yang Sanniang, I thank you here." Li Longji gestured at her, he saw Yang Weixiao's expression was strange, but he didn't think about it, got up and wanted to leave.
Just after taking a few steps, "His Royal Highness the Prince-" She stopped him, she finally raised her head, her expression had returned to normal, "Jing Ci's matter, in the final analysis, the eldest sister is responsible, you need to discuss this matter with the eldest sister again." β
"Okay, thanks for the pointers."
Looking at his departing back, two tear stains finally flowed, and she even choked quietly. He really ...... has no affection for her at all, and his heart is all on his sister...... That's the man she has been in love with for a long time and fell in love with at first sight......
Yang Weiwei tugged on the brand-new skirt on her body, thinking in her heart that when A-Niang left, she really could only rely on herself, and her future was in her own hands.
Whatever the outcome, she's going to give it a go this time.
"Alas, Wei Wei, why are you so troubled?" Xue Ji didn't know when she was already standing behind her, looking helpless.
"Master, please support me." She looked at Xue Ji with a pair of teary eyes and choked up.
"You're my student, so I'll naturally help you."
