Chapter Seventy-Two: Ah Ci's Dilemma

asked people to press down the matter of the flood, this is a matter that will kill the people, and Ji Lin does not dare to respond.

But Cao Tingyue knew that this matter was not easy to do.

He pursed his lips and said, "In this way, you can think of asking the local officials to organize disaster relief first, but not report it to Your Majesty for the time being, at least the disaster control will not be caused by serious floods." ”

This is not a big deal, Dongchang is a big matter, and now the palm prints are still eunuchs, but they are just talking about it.

In the eyes of those eunuchs who hold the pen and palm prints, these people are just grass mustards, and they don't care about their life and death, so naturally a sentence with an identity like Cao Tingyue is more important.

After all, he is now Ji Jia's godson, even if he doesn't give him face, he has to give Ji Jia face, and if he offends Ji Jia, no one can easily get better.

Cao Tingyu is barely making a charter here, he just rested for a while, that is, he is going out again, now that Ji Jia is back, he will find him by his side more in everything, on the one hand, it also reflects the importance of him, and on the other hand, it may not be that someone in Dongchang looks at him hotly, and what to do from time to time has reached Ji Jia's ears.

Ji Jia may not believe much, but he still has to show the people below.

So going back and forth like this, as long as Ji Jia is there, Cao Tingyue may not be at ease.

He suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and went to Ji Jia's side again.

Jiahe yard.

Ah Ci was a little surprised and said, "Yes, let the slave and maid guard the courtyard...... If the second princess comes, it will have to be dealt with by the slave maid? ”

She couldn't believe it, "But, the slave maid is just a palace maid." ”

That's the second princess, she went to the womb of the lord next to her, and everyone had to serve as the master, she was a palace maid, didn't she eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall?

Jiahe lowered his eyes to look at her, and then smiled, "What, do you think that you are not up to this task given to you by this palace?" ”

Ah Ci didn't dare to speak, Jiahe's temper is getting more and more strange now, she can't figure it out at all, so that she knows that now it seems to be pinched in the palm of Zheng Liang's hand, it has never been like this, but now it has become too much.

What Jiahe didn't seem to expect at this time was that calling her to answer the second princess was not only her own business, but it was also easy for the princess to feel that His Royal Highness was disrespecting her.

It's easy to tell the brother and sister to be separated, but she doesn't dare to say such things.

If it was before, maybe Jiahe would still consider her, but at this time, I'm afraid that if she really said such a thing, Jiahe would feel that she was deliberately shirking.

Because if one person already doesn't believe the words of another, then it's useless to say anything.

Ah Ci lowered his eyes and kowtowed again, "If Your Highness is ......"

Jiahe interrupted her, "Actually, this palace handed over this matter to you, and I also think that you are indeed the person that this palace can trust the most." Even if it's Zheng Liang......"

At the moment, there were only two of them in the house, and even Zheng Liang was waiting outside the house.

"In the end, he is also the person who came to this palace later, and you are the most trusted person in this palace. This palace wants to leave this kind of thing to you, and you should be able to understand it. ”

Ah Ci's eyes were hot, although she knew that this was just Jiahe's words to coax her, and it might not be very sincere, but at this moment, she still felt extra ironing when she heard this, and she wanted to cry very much.

"If you really think that you can't do it, or if it's really incompetent, then it doesn't matter, you just say it directly, and this palace will not embarrass you after all."

It's all said and done, if Ah Ci doesn't go next, then she really ignores her master a little, she gritted her teeth and kowtowed, "Your Highness believes in the slave maid, and the slave and maid must not want to live up to Your Highness." ”

And so it goes.

Jiahe laughed, "It's best if you are willing to agree, and you don't need to have too much pressure, you just need to resist, where has the palace gone, who has been close to you these days, and who has been in and out of this courtyard, you don't have to say anything." ”

Ah Ci knew what she meant, so she nodded.

Jiahe asked her to go out, but before noon, he took Zheng Liang and the two out secretly.

Ah Ci looked at her back, in fact, she felt a little bad, but she also knew that she was afraid that she would not listen to her words anymore, and what she could do might be the only way to complete the tasks assigned by Jiahe.

Sure enough, it was just in the afternoon, and the second princess came.

The second princess slept very late today, firstly, her nerves were not so tense when she was not in the prince's mansion, and secondly, she was indeed very tired the day before, and even if she slept more, the grandmother next to her would not say anything.

After lunch, she guessed that she was going to Jiahe to see her again.

"After all, I didn't really go to see Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess yesterday, and she has always been a high-spirited person, but it is impossible to ask her to come to see me, so I should go and meet her, and I will complete this courtesy." The second princess looked at herself in the mirror and smiled, "I have to finish what His Royal Highness the prince said he would ask me to complete, so I have to persuade him." ”

The grandmother beside her naturally didn't dare to say anything, so she responded again and again, and said, "Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess has a considerate sister-in-law like you, and she should be content." ”

The second princess laughed, "Don't talk about contentment or anything, she's just afraid that she thinks I'm very annoying at this time, and she doesn't want to look at me more." ”

Having said that, she didn't mean to be considerate of Jiahe, so she took someone to Jiahe's side in a hurry.

-

Chi Chi glanced at Ah Cui and Ah Bi, both of whom were accustomed to practicing martial arts, and even learned the methods of spying on intelligence and marking people in the East Factory, it can be seen that Cao Tingyue actually sometimes knows what Chi Chi wants to do, but he never says it directly, such a euphemistic expression makes Chi Chi more relaxed.

"Abi, go and keep an eye on Princess Jiahe and Prince Beiyin for me."

Abi knelt down, "Yes, but how far does Your Highness want to track them down?" The slave and maid should control it clearly. ”

After thinking about it for a while, "Don't follow too closely, Jiahe is okay to say, there are probably people who practice martial arts around the prince, if it is discovered, we can't say it clearly." As for the point, I don't need to know what they said, I just need to know what they probably did. ”

It's not difficult, as long as it's far away, there aren't many people here in Huguo Temple, so don't worry about anyone next to you finding her traces.

Abi responded, "Yes, the slave is clear." ”

"Acui, you go and help me inquire about the things in Jiahe's courtyard, but the people in their courtyard are estimated to be stricter, you see if there is a way, if you can't pry it open, it's nothing."

Atsui said, "Yes, the slave and maid obey." ”

In fact, there is no shortage of people around Chi Chi, and she doesn't even need anyone to serve her, she is a person who is used to living a hard life, and she has always preferred to rely on herself compared to other masters.

And these two people are really here to send charcoal to Chi Chi in the snow, just because they can do a lot of ordinary palace maids for Chi Chi, or things that she can't do by herself.

After a long time, she was waiting, before Cao Tingyue said that she would definitely take her back to the palace as soon as possible, and now she believes in Cao Tingyu very much, just waiting for that day quietly.

-

When the second princess arrived in Jiahe's courtyard, she found that it was exceptionally quiet, as if there was no one, although she felt a little strange, but she still went in.

Before she arrived at the door, she saw Ah Ci standing by the door, she recognized Ah Ci, so she smiled, "Ah Ci, your Royal Highness is in the house, I came to see her." ”

Ah Ci said, "Thank you to the princess for asking, but it is inconvenient for His Royal Highness to meet guests at this time, why don't you go and sit in front of the princess first?" ”

"Inconvenient to meet guests?" The second princess raised her eyebrows, and then smiled knowingly, "Did you go out?" ”

Ah Ci didn't answer, just smiled.

The second princess was unhappy, she only felt that there were no rules for this reconciliation, and she clearly knew that she was coming to see her, but she still went out, and she just went out, and she just put a maid to fool herself.

But she has always been used to playing tolerance, and if she gets angry at this time, I'm afraid it's not appropriate.

He smiled, "Then I'll go and sit down with you." She walked with a smile in her tone, "I have always known that the tea in the courtyard of Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess is the best, and I have to come over every day to ask for a cup and a half." ”

Ah Ci took the second princess to the front, and her heart was entangled and complicated, so she was afraid that the second princess would ask again.

But it's impossible not to ask, the second princess is worried that she can't find anything suitable to go to the second prince to complain, how can she not grasp the opportunity to come to the door at this time.

"Did Your Highness say where you went?"

Ah Ci didn't answer, but just asked the little maid to serve her tea, "Second princess, please use it." ”

The second princess lowered her eyes and suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, after all, even if she was Jiahe's personal palace maid, there was no reason not to give her face.

She suddenly thought of something, "By the way, Ah Ci, you have been serving His Highness for many years, right?" ”

Ah Ci can answer this, "It's been more than ten years since I returned to the second princess. ”

"That's what I grew up with Your Highness, no wonder the queen often mentions you, saying that with you by His Royal Highness's side, she guesses that she can feel a little more at ease."

Ah Ci's eyelashes trembled, "The slave doesn't dare, it's just to serve the master, it's just her duty." ”

"It is your duty to serve your master, but you are doing your best for your master." The second prince smiled and said, "But I know that you have always been a smart person, and you should know best what is really good for the master, right?" ”
