Chapter 29: Small Talk
In the past few days, the people in the prince's mansion have noticed that since returning from the autumn water banquet, the relationship between the crown princess and Concubine Su has eased a lot.
Although there was no direct conflict before, everyone could see that Concubine Su was obviously deliberately avoiding the crown princess.
Why there are so many changes, the versions can be described as endless.
The two parties did not come out to explain, which shrouded the matter with a layer of mystery.
"How does it feel to be the protagonist of the after-dinner conversation?" Su Nian asked with one arm on the table, propping his head.
Yue Jin unhurriedly took the teapot from the small stove and said while making tea: "Yes one." ”
Su Nian took the teacup that Yue Jin handed her, rubbing her fingers against the wall of the cup, her thick eyelashes covering her eyelids, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Seeing this, Yue Jin took her teacup and took a sip, then pushed the teacup that was placed in front of her before, and said, "Don't worry, there are no ingredients in the tea this time." ”
"That's not what I meant." Su Nian said, "Also, you...... Isn't it hot? ”
Hot, of course. Yue Jin stuck out her tongue and sighed a few times.
"Did you come to me today for something?" Yue Jin asked.
"It's not a big deal, I just wanted to ask you what your general plan is."
"Plan?"
"With that look on your face, you don't have a plan, do you?"
Su Nian felt incredible.
Yue Jin scratched her head and said, "You can't blame me, Younan also suddenly ...... I don't have time to prepare any plans. ”
"Okay." Su Nian sighed lightly, "Then do you have any clues?" Don't sue me for this. ”
"Yes, yes." Yue Jin hurriedly took out the little palace maid's handwritten letter and pointed to one of the lines, "Look here, an address was mentioned, saying that Younan will go here every once in a while." ”
Su Nian asked Sequoia to take the map of Yunyao City, and after checking it, he said: "From the map, this is an ordinary people's house, I guess I have to go to the scene to see it." ”
Hearing this, Yue Jin poked Su Nian and said, "Then you can help me cover up." ”
"No." Su Nian refused without thinking about it, "Yue Jin, I found that you are a little stubborn." ”
"Huh?"
"You don't have to do this kind of thing yourself, do you? You go here to take a look, if the situation is wrong, report it directly to Yu Linwei. In the second half of the sentence, Su Nian said to Sequoia.
Sequoia didn't say a word, turned around and walked out the door.
Su Nian smiled and said to Yue Jin: "I'm lazy, and I like to find someone who is good at helping." ”
"So how do you get to know people who are good at each field?" Yue Jin asked curiously.
"A few gold ingots."
Su Nian said it lightly, but in Yue Jin's opinion, this is simply showing off her wealth.
Yue Jin knew that the Su family was rich, but she didn't expect it to be so rich, and she now suspected that Xiao Yongqing was interested in Su Nian's money.
So, she tentatively asked, "...... you and Your Highness?"
"You can understand that there is collusion between officials and businessmen."
It's so direct, Yue Jin didn't know what to say for a while.
"Why do you like my father?"
These words completely confused Yue Jin, it turned out that what she had been hiding seemed to her to be so indifferent?
"I don't know."
She really didn't know, it seemed that she had never thought about it, why? Does it really have an answer to this question?
"There's a saying I don't know if to say." Su Nian hesitated, and said seriously, "The feeling in your heart, it's not love." ”
Yue Jin raised her head and looked at her in a daze, thought for a moment, and slowly spoke: "Why do you deny it?" ”
"Because you were too young to ...... easily"
Yue Jin stood up abruptly and raised her voice, "Is it because it's your father that you don't want to admit it?" ”
"He's anybody, I'd say that." Su Nian was very firm in his thoughts, "I'm just worried that you locked yourself in the past. ”
"Worried about me?" Yue Jin was angry, her mind was in chaos at this time, and she said to herself, "Are you afraid that I will stay by your side for the rest of my life?" ”
Su Nian didn't argue with her, put down the tea cup in his hand and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, I'll come to you again after Sequoia brings back the news." ”
As he spoke, he was about to walk out.
"You stop." Yue Jin didn't give up, "Answered my question before leaving." ”
Su Nian ignored her and continued to walk forward.
"Do you know what love is?" Yue Jin chased after her and continued.
"I don't want to understand." Su Nian was annoyed by her questioning, turned his head and said, "Whoever is good to me, I will be good to whom; Whoever is good for me, I will follow. ”
"Whether you love him or not?"
"Yes, are you satisfied with this answer?"
There was the sound of something falling to the ground behind him, and the two who were arguing looked for prestige, and Xiao Yongqing stood a few meters away.
On the ground is a loose osmanthus glutinous rice cake.
"Yongqing, I ......"
Su Nian looked at Xiao Yongqing with an expressionless face at a loss.
Yue Jin didn't expect things to develop like this, if there was really a gap between the two because of this incident, then she wouldn't have the face to see Su Yu.
She said cautiously: "Your Highness, we are just exchanging views, don't take it to heart." ”
Changfeng was afraid that Yue Jin would say something to upset Xiao Yongqing, so he hurriedly said: "Princess Shunhe, it's none of your business, go back quickly." ”
Su Nian walked up to Xiao Yongqing, grabbed his clothes, and said coquettishly: "Don't be angry, I'm ......"
Xiao Yongqing grabbed her wrist and said, "Su Nian, are you ......?"
"Tap, you're hurting me."
Xiao Yongqing wanted to get angry, but after seeing Su Nianchu's moving eyes, he suddenly lost his temper and had no choice but to let go of his hand.
Changfeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief on the side, so it seemed that the two of them would not have any major incidents.
"Nian'er, if one day, I am useless to you, will you leave immediately?" Xiao Yongqing asked.
Su Nian didn't answer this question immediately, but asked, "Do you want me to go?" ”
"I don't want to."
"Then I'm not leaving."
Su Nian raised his head and smiled at Xiao Yongqing.
Yue Jin, who was peeking by the window, saw this scene, patted her chest and said to Youlu: "I was scared to death just now, His Highness reacted so much." ”
Youlu didn't look surprised, and said, "Your Highness and Concubine Su are often like this, and those of us who are subordinates are used to it." ”
"Often?"
"Hmm." Youlu nodded affirmatively, "Actually, the slave maid doesn't understand what Concubine Su thinks, Her Highness treats her so well, her attitude is always ambiguous." ”
These words immediately hooked Yue Jin's curiosity, and she gossiped and pulled Youlu: "What is the situation between the two of them, you can tell me." ”
