Back at Xiangmei Pavilion, Guo Yijie said to Lu He: "The fifth aunt will be the first person to deal with us, and you can help me pay special attention to her movements during this time." ”

Midori nodded, "Yes." He also said: "The slave maid just talked to the two personal maids of the fifth aunt, and she will get closer to them tomorrow." ”

"Hmm." Guo Yijie nodded slightly, turned around and entered the inner room.

A dreamless night.

When she woke up the next day, Guo Yijie turned her head to look at the three maple trees full of red leaves not far from the window, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

Although she can get a lot of money for completing this task, will she really be able to complete this task successfully?

In the past few days, although she has been very calm on the surface, she is actually a little apprehensive in her heart.

Since she met the Four Princes, her mind has become delicate.

She didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit it - she had a good impression of the fourth prince.

The Four Princes are the kind of people she admires.

Although the deep love is not enough.

This was completely unexpected.

However, she also knew that she must not have feelings for him. Because once that happens, she'll be in an extremely dangerous situation.

What could be more important than life?

She sighed and rolled over, her eyes closed with a heavy heart.

In this life, I am like duckweed wandering in the world.

Since she was a child, she has struggled to survive, and in order to be able to eat a bite of food, she often has to abandon her dignity, which is her real situation.

Thinking of this, her heart suddenly cleared up a little.

"It's just a mission." She said to herself.

He is him. She is her, and they can't be together.

Guo Yijie covered her face with a quilt.

In the next two days, the four princes and Guo Yijie did not meet.

This is the method of the four princes' 'desire to capture and indulge'.

Guo Yijie knows.

Although she wanted to make things move faster, she decided to play a cat-and-mouse game with him.

Guo Yijie has just experienced the wind/month, although she does not have a thorough understanding of men's psychology, but with her exquisite heart, she still has a certain certainty.

When a person desires something in his heart, he will try to get it.

Guo Yijie knows this, and the four princes also know it.

Therefore, for the next ten days, both of them deliberately avoided the opportunity to meet.

Only the two of them know—and there is a faint conscience in their hearts.

They won't be unclear – they're doing more harm than good together.

Who wants to find sin in nothing?

But she knew very well - even then she had to do it, because she was her job.

And the fourth prince has no worries about this, all he has to think about is the turmoil that may be caused by the competition for favor after being with her.

Compared with. His psychological struggles were lighter than hers. So he didn't have as much concern as her.

In the past ten days, Guo Yijie has not had a peaceful life in the Zhongwang Mansion.

From the third day she stayed in Zhongwang's Mansion, the fifth aunt Xiao Lingshu began to embarrass her.

Xiao Lingshu thinks that as long as I keep embarrassing her, she will run away because she can't bear it, right?

But what Xiao Lingshu didn't expect was that no matter how extreme and unreasonable her approach was, Guo Yijie always responded indifferently. It was as if those things couldn't hurt her a hair.

Xiao Lingshu was anxious and angry. said a lot of ugly things in front of Guo Yijie.

Guo Yijie only smiled. Unaffected by her words and emotions in the slightest.

As a result, many people secretly said that Xiao Lingshu was 'ugly and weird', and even the fourth prince couldn't help but reprimand Xiao Lingshu a few words.

The aunts of the four princes all know how to see the wind and steer the rudder. Now seeing that Xiao Lingshu was reprimanded by the four princes, they told the four princes that the fifth aunt was wrong.

The fourth prince didn't want a fire in the backyard, so he said solemnly: "Shut up for me." ”

Everyone didn't dare to say anything more, and retreated silently.

In the afternoon of this day, the third and sixth aunts accompanied the fourth prince for a walk in the garden in the Zhongwang Mansion.

In the past, the four princes were either the fourth princess or the fifth aunt who accompanied the four princes on a walk, and it was difficult for other aunts to have this opportunity.

But the four imperial concubines came to menstruation today, and they were not in good shape, so they couldn't come.

And the fifth aunt has been reprimanded by the fourth prince in the past few days, and the relationship between the two has not yet recovered, so she dare not come.

The fourth prince called the third and sixth aunts to accompany him.

The garden of Zhongwang's Mansion was very large, and the three of them looked at it while walking, and they hadn't finished walking for nearly half an hour.

Perhaps because he missed it too much, the four princes stood for a long time in front of the path leading to Xiangmei Pavilion.

The third aunt and the sixth aunt were afraid that the fourth prince would go to Guo Yijie, so they hurriedly said, "Emperor, we should go back." ”

"You guys go back first, I want to go alone." The fourth prince said.

The third aunt and the sixth aunt suddenly looked embarrassed.

The fourth prince thought for a while, smiled and said, "Then let's go back." ”

With that, he strode towards his dwellings.

The two aunts immediately followed behind him with a smile on their faces.

When he returned to his lodgings, the fourth prince asked him to bathe him, and at the same time said to another maid, "Go and inform the four imperial concubines and the ten aunts, and say that I want to sleep alone tonight, so that they don't have to come." ”

The maid immediately took the order to do it.

After bathing, the fourth prince simply had dinner, sat in front of the window and read for a while, and when he saw that the sun was about to set, he put down the book, and said to the maid who was serving beside him: "I will go out for a while, and if anyone comes to me, you will say that I have fallen asleep." ”

"Yes."

"Don't let them into my room." The fourth prince instructed again.

"Yes."

The fourth prince put on a coat and walked out of the room, heading straight in the direction of Xiangmei Pavilion.

Xiangmei Pavilion is located in the northwest corner of the Zhongwang Mansion, and it takes more than a quarter of an hour to walk there from the courtyard.

Because the terrain of Xiangmei Pavilion is much higher than the courtyard of Zhongwang's Mansion, the green lotus who was standing outside the house and looking out into the courtyard suddenly saw the four princes walking here, and immediately entered the house to report to Guo Yijie.

"Burn the sandalwood and go to the garden to pick some chrysanthemums, osmanthus and hibiscus and put them in the flower goblets in front of the window." Guo Yijie commanded.

Green Lotus went to do it immediately.

Guo Yijie went into the bath room to bathe.

Soaking her body in the bathtub full of flower petals, Guo Yijie closed her eyes comfortably.

But she was a little inexplicably nervous in her heart.

But she also knew it was an opportunity not to be missed.

She took a deep breath and tried to relax.

After coming out of the bathtub, Guo Yijie deliberately did not wear a belly/pocket, and only wore a thin set of light/yarn.

In this way, her delicate/long/have/chic body/material looms in the light/yarn.

She hid a small bottle of safflower juice under her pillow and smeared some incense/dew on her body, and then put on a light purple coat and sat in front of the guqin. (To be continued.) )

PS: Dear friends, the first update is here. The second watch is around 6 o'clock. The scenes between the four princes and Guo Yijie play a key role in the plot of the whole novel, which is why the author spent so much pen and ink to write, so I would like to explain it here.
