The gardener who repaired the plants and trees was indeed handsome, with delicate eyebrows, and his temperament was far from that of a small servant, and there was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, no wonder it would make the little maid blush when she looked at her.

"Are you Zhou Bi?" Chu Yue'an suddenly remembered that he had seen him with Chu Yueyun that day.

"Yes, the little one is Zhou Bi, I didn't expect the second miss to be able to remember me." Zhou Bi smiled shyly, very respectful.

"You're busy." Chu Yue'an said lightly, "If you need help, call them." I've always liked nature, and you don't have to take care of it too much, just let them grow freely. ”

"Yes, Second Miss, the little one will pay attention to proportion."

Caixing followed behind Chu Yue'an, and she was always straightforward in front of the young lady: "I didn't expect that there would be such a delicate little girl in our house, who looks like someone's son." ”

"Shall I give you to him?" Chu Yue'an asked with a smile.

"Don't, the slave maid wants to follow the second miss for the rest of her life, and the second miss won't make fun of me!" Caixing said, and said, "By the way, are those specialties going to be sent to everyone?" ”

Chu Yue'an didn't expect that Cai Xing would be so careful, although she went to Aunt Xiang's hometown all the way by herself, but along the way, she bought a lot of specialties according to the preferences of everyone in the house, and she didn't think so much about herself.

"Send it." Chu Yue'an said, "Although they are all specialty, it is good to make everyone happy." ”

While she was having breakfast, a maid beside Aunt Xiang rushed over and gave Chu Yue'an an an invitation.

Chu Yue'an glanced at it, but a trace of doubt rose in her heart, it turned out to be the post of Princess Jin, she and Princess Jin had never met, let alone had a friendship, I don't know why Princess Jin invited her to King Jin's mansion?

This King of Jin is a concubine, and he was raised by the Queen Mother, and he is likely to be the future heir to the throne, Chu Yue'an does not dare to refute her face. When the old lady heard about this, she was afraid that she would surprise Princess Jin, so she specially called her over and instructed her to behave.

In the afternoon, Chu Yuean dressed up and officially went to visit Princess Jin.

Before arriving at the Jin Palace, she got out of the carriage, handed over the worship post, and the housekeeper led Chu Yue'an inside, and after passing a door, she was led by a mother-in-law, all the way to the flower hall.

In the flower hall, there was a young woman in a light yellow dress, in her early twenties, with delicate eyebrows and a bookish atmosphere, although it was not stunning, but it was very comfortable to look at, a real beauty at second sight.

"Princess." The woman stepped forward and saluted, "Miss Chu Er has arrived." ”

"I see, you go down." Princess Jin waved her hand.

The mother-in-law stepped back, and Chu Yue'an stepped forward and saluted: "I've seen Princess Jin." ”

Princess Jin smiled lightly: "Don't be polite, sit down." When I was in the Orchid Poetry Club last time, we had only met once, and we hadn't spoken yet, so I was able to ask the county lord of Xianluo to come to the door to apologize to you in person, so I have always been curious about you, and I have long wanted to invite you to sit in the palace. ”

"I'm really ashamed, it's just a little misunderstanding with the county lord." Chu Yue'an smiled lightly, "The princess is a little different from what I imagined. ”

"Oh? What's the difference? Princess Jin asked with a smile.

"Be more intimate." Chu Yuean smiled lightly, "I always feel like we've known each other for a long time." ”

Princess Jin's eyes lit up and she held Chu Yue'an's hand: "To be honest, I also felt this way when I met you just now, as if you were a friend I haven't seen for many years." Actually, I've heard a lot about you, and I admire you very much because you're a person with a story. ”

Princess Jin has no shelf, and her age with Chu Yue'an is also close, the two are like sisters, talking happily with each other, saying some interesting things in Beijing, saying some poems and songs, and talking about gossip and secrets, without the restraint and restraint of the first meeting.

Chu Yue'an is a slow-burning person, and it is rare to be able to chat so devotedly with someone he just met, and fate is also very wonderful.

The two chatted for a while, and a grandmother whispered a few words in Princess Jin's ear, and she said apologetically: "Yue'an, you are here later, I will deal with some things, and I will come over immediately." ”

"Okay."

Chu Yue'an got up, looked at the flower hall, and took a look at the garden outside.

This King of Jin is the only child of the former queen and the queen mother's favorite grandson, but this Jin palace is not extravagant at all, and there is a dignified simplicity everywhere.

"This king hasn't seen the princess so happy for a long time, she likes you, if you have time, you can come and talk to her more."

A voice came from behind, Chu Yue'an hurriedly turned around, and saw a man with a great figure and a tough face pick up the quilt on the stone table and brought himself a cup of tea, this person was none other than the King of Jin who he had seen in the White Horse Temple that day.

How could he suddenly appear?

"I've seen King Jin." Chu Yue'an asked for peace, "The last time I was in the White Horse Temple, I was rescued by the prince, and I never had the opportunity to thank the prince." ”

"It's a small thing, you don't have to take it to heart." Yuwen Jun said lightly, he took a sip of tea informally, and then walked towards Chu Yue'an, "Those mountain bandits have been dealt with." ”

"Hmm." Chu Yue'an nodded, "In this way, the people can also rest assured." ”

"According to the confessions of those mountain bandits, the bandit leader Xia Hu once said something to you before he died."

Yuwen Junyi's gaze was firmly fixed on Chu Yue'an, with a sharp coldness in his eyes, threatening, and a hint of inquiry.

Chu Yue'an swallowed his saliva unconsciously, he had just chatted with Princess Jin, and he had never thought about the purpose of her inviting him over, could it be that all this was instructed by King Jin? Is this what he wants to pursue Xia Hu?

"He said that he and my brother were comrades-in-arms, and that my brother died a strange death." Chu Yuean said truthfully.

"Do you believe him?" King Jin's pupils shrank, and he still looked at Chu Yue'an with a cold face, and the murderous aura in his eyes was even stronger.

"How is that possible!" Chu Yuean pretended to smile lightly, "No matter what, he is a mountain bandit, how can I believe the words of a mountain bandit, and besides, my brother sacrificed his life for the country, and it is not something he can slander." ”

"Have you ever said that to anyone?" Yuwen Junyi asked.

"Nope." Chu Yue'an said firmly, "It's just the nonsense of the mountain bandits, I don't believe how it is possible to tell others!" ”

"Lord Wang, why are you here?" Princess Jin came over with a smile, "Did you know each other before?" ”

"When I was in the White Horse Temple, the prince saved me." Chu Yue'an said, "I'm thanking the prince for saving his life!" ”

The murderous aura in King Jin's eyes disappeared, and he looked at his princess gently: "This king is going to the martial arts training ground, just pass by here." You talk, it's windy here, don't catch a cold. ”

"Okay." Princess Jin is blessed, "The prince walks slowly." ”

Yuwen Junyi glanced at Chu Yue'an with a complicated expression, and then left.

Chu Yue'an swallowed his saliva, what does King Jin's warning mean today? Could it be that his brother's death had something to do with him?

Knowing that it was getting dark, Chu Yue'an had just left, and Princess Jin reluctantly pulled her, and said on a whim: "Yue'an, what do you think of our prince?" ”

"King Jin? Majestic, like a god descending from heaven. ”

"You and I hit it off at first sight, why don't you marry King Jin and let him make you a side concubine, so that our sisters can be companions every day?"

Chu Yue'an was slightly stunned, is Princess Jin testing herself or is her nature so simple?

"Princess, you're joking, you forgot, I still have a marriage contract on me." Chu Yue'an smiled, "If you feel lonely, I will come often in the future." ”

"Then it's decided, you can't lie to me!"

Ninghou Mansion.

Chu Yue has been grounded in the courtyard for a few days, and after she was almost strangled to death by her father's rope in the ancestral hall, she was so frightened that she had a serious illness, and she was sick for half a month.

Aunt Qian looked at the specialty in her hand and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that only the second lady in the entire Hou Mansion still remembers our mother." ”

Chu Yue got up and threw the things out of the door, and sneered: "The cat is just crying and the mouse is fake compassion." ”

"You kid!" Aunt Qian sighed helplessly, "You listen to your mother's advice, and you will have less contact with your third sister in the future, and our mother and daughter will live a down-to-earth life." ”

"I naturally know that the third sister is uneasy and kind, this time I betrayed her, do you think he will give me a good face?" Chu Yuexi snorted, "It's just that she, Chu Yue'an, is not a good person!" There are all deceitful people in this Hou Mansion, all of them are wolf ambitions, and there are no good people at all! ”

"Miss Five." Aunt Qian sighed deeply, "Everyone has their own life, you have to learn to accept your fate." ”

"I don't recognize it!" Chu Yue said sharply, "I won't accept my fate!" They are all father's daughters, why is my life worse than the three of them! ”

She bit her lip stiffly: "I must prove that I don't have to be bad at anyone!" ”

Aunt Qian blamed herself: "It's all my fault, it's me who is useless to make you live so hard." ”

"It's the Mid-Autumn Festival in two days, and I have to find a way to get my father to let me out. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was my grandmother's birthday, and I had to find a way to buy a blockbuster gift. Chu Yuexi said, "I can't stay in this Hou Mansion anymore, Chu Yuezi won't let me have a good life, they don't plan for me, I plan for myself, I want to find a good husband for myself." On my grandmother's birthday, I had to act, or it would be too late! ”

"Your father will definitely plan for you about your marriage, don't mess around, lest you get into trouble again." Aunt Qian persuaded worriedly.

"What scheme? The marriage he considered for me was just some small doors, small households, small officials, and I didn't like it. Chu Yue gritted her teeth, "I don't want to be used by anyone anymore, I want to control my own destiny." I want revenge, whoever makes me feel bad, I will make her feel bad too! ”
