Chu Yuqin walked in front of the two palace maids.

The eyes of the two palace maids were full of excitement, and they didn't find Chu Yuqin's sympathetic eyes.

In a place like the Imperial Palace, where people eat people and don't spit out bones, the cold palace is much safer than the outside. Life here may be hard, but there's no intrigue. And outside......

These little girls will soon regret it. At that time, I am afraid that they will cry and beg the old master to take them in.

The fourth prince took a deep breath and walked into the palace gate with Chu Yuqin.

In addition to the two palace maids I saw just now, there are also two little palace maids who are doing miscellaneous things. Compared with the two palace maids outside, these two little palace maids honestly cleaned up the room.

The palace is old, with no superfluous furnishings, and looks like an abandoned courtyard. This is where an unfavored princess lives, not as good as a merchant's boudoir.

"Second sister." The fourth prince collected his expression and walked towards the girl who was writing with a smile.

The girl's hair was simply tied up, and her clothes were washed white, but noticeably shorter. Looking at the paper she used, it was the cheapest paper.

Seeing the girl's face, Chu Yuqin finally understood what the fourth prince meant by 'a little unsightly'.

First of all, the girl is a little short in stature. Also, there are some spots on the face. There is also a bad skin condition and rough hair. Combined with the words of those two palace maids, she should still have a lonely smell.

The biggest highlight is that her eyes are bright and clear, like an innocent child. Nothing else, at the moment, is not visible.

"Why are you here?"

As soon as the girl spoke, Chu Yuqin found another advantage for her, that is, her voice was very beautiful.

The fourth prince smiled and said, "I miss you!" ”

"It's not in shape." The girl bowed her head shyly.

"Really!" The fourth prince said: "I have been doing my homework well recently, and the master has praised me many times. Sister, should I be rewarded? ”

"Aren't you supposed to do your homework well? Why should I give you a reward? The second princess smiled.

"By the way, I almost forgot about our important guest." The fourth prince looked at Chu Yuqin and said, "This is my new friend. Her surname is Chu, you can call her Miss Chu. ”

The second princess's face stiffened.

She stayed in the cold palace for a long time and didn't like to go out to socialize, so she was a little nervous when she saw the living.

"Which girl is Miss Chu?" The second princess cheered up and socialized.

Chu Yuqin smiled: "Your Royal Highness the princess, don't blame it. It would be rude for a maiden to trespass into your palace without your consent. I'm not a daughter of any family, I'm just a businessman. ”

"Merchant?" The second princess was surprised. "What does that mean?"

"She's an imperial merchant." The Four Princes explained. "Father personally sealed it, amazing, right?"

The second princess nodded: "It's amazing." You look about my age. But are you already in business on your own? ”

"Not only that, but she's the most popular imperial merchant right now." The fourth prince added beside him: "I hit her off at first sight. Thinking that my sister doesn't have any friends here, I want to introduce you to each other. Recently, she was copying scriptures for the emperor's grandmother and was going to stay in the palace for a while. She was a little bored to be alone. You can also come and play with my sister in the future. ”

"Looking for me? Don't look for me. I'm boring, there's nothing fun about it. "The second princess is a little uncomfortable." Why are you still standing? You may be seated. ”

Chu Yuqin walked over and looked at the portrait in front of the second princess.

It was a picture of a fairy.

The fairy flew up, revealing only one back, and her face could not be seen.

This is what the second princess desires the most, right?

She wants to become a rising fairy.

But she knew what she looked like, so she didn't dare to draw a straight face.

It's just her spiritual sustenance.

"The princess's drawing skills are really good. I don't have a princess like me. Chu Yuqin said in disappointment: "Your Royal Highness Princess, can you teach me to draw?" ”

The second princess said embarrassedly: "Me? I can't draw well, where can I teach others? Besides, I don't know how to teach. Otherwise, you let the imperial brother teach! He draws much better than I do. ”

"Men and women are not clear." The fourth prince said: "If it is seen by others, will Yuqin still have a reputation?" Sister, you really want to figure it out. ”

The fourth prince saw that Chu Yuqin and the second princess had already connected, and it was a little redundant for him to stay here any longer, which was not conducive to their more intimate conversation.

"I still have class, so I'll go first." The fourth prince said to the second princess: "Yuqin is bored alone, so I will put it here for you first." Later, when she's had enough, she'll go back on her own. ”

The second princess's eyes widened: "This ...... I don't know how to greet her? ”

"She's such a big person, she doesn't need you to take care of her. You just have to talk to her. Okay, I'll go first. The fourth prince waved.

After the fourth prince left, Chu Yuqin didn't make the atmosphere awkward, and still found a topic to talk to the second princess.

"I don't know when the rash on my face will go away?" Chu Yuqin pretended to be distressed and said.

"After the rash is gone, you must look good, right?" The second princess looked at Chu Yuqin's white skin and delicate palms, with envy in her eyes.

"Is it pretty? I don't think you're as good as a princess! Chu Yuqin said.

"Don't lie to me." The second princess was a little angry.

Everyone knew she was ugly.

Including her younger brother, no matter how good their relationship is, the information revealed in his eyes also tells her a fact: she is really not good-looking.

The palace maid said this, her brother said this, and even she herself felt the same.

But she is so ugly that she will actually like someone. If that person knows, I'm afraid it will be disgusting!

After all, she's an ugly princess!

The second princess's eyes were red.

"I ...... I'm a little tired, so I won't entertain you. ”

Chu Yuqin listened to the second princess's eviction order, and knew that she was sad again.

She was able to understand her inferiority complex. She's seen this a lot.

"Princess, I'm serious." Chu Yuqin looked at her. "Do you know what happened to me before?"

The second princess didn't want to pay attention to Chu Yuqin. But she was a gentle and kind girl.

Chu Yuqin took the initiative to talk to her, and it was impossible for her to ignore it. This is not the upbringing of a princess.

"I don't know."

"I was disfigured." Chu Yuqin pointed to his cheek. "This half of my face is rotten."

The second princess's eyes widened.

She looked carefully at the place Chu Yuqin was pointing. There were no scars except for some small red rashes.

"You lied to me. If it's really that serious, how can it not leave a trace? ”

Chu Yuqin pulled the second princess to sit down and looked at her seriously: "I didn't lie to you. Speaking of which, I am not like Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was born with a good background. I used to ......"

Chu Yuqin mentioned her best grandmother, her best relatives, and the days she spent in Zheng's mansion. When she mentioned the disfigurement, the second princess had tears in her eyes, as if she was the one who was hurt.
