Qi Changrong was forced to recuperate in the East Palace for a few days, and was not freed until the end of the menstrual period.

Because she has a criminal record, in the past few days, Shixia Shichun has been keeping an eye on her at the order of the Sun family, almost not leaving an inch, but whenever she has the slightest idea of coming out of the East Palace, the two girls will make a posture of Meng Jiangnu crying down the Great Wall, forcing her to postpone the matter for the time being.

Fortunately, the big thing was not delayed.

On March 29, she lifted the ban and walked out of the East Palace without incident, and there were no two heels behind her who pretended to cry at every turn.

Ji Fang finally had a little smile on her gloomy face for many days, and couldn't help but laugh along: "Why is Your Highness so happy today?" ”

"Stealing half a day's leisure, you don't understand."

Qi Changrong's brisk and pleasant voice successfully made Ji Fang want to be crooked, he covered his mouth and snickered: "The slave is a eunuch, so he naturally doesn't understand the happiness of His Highness, but it's the same thing between men and women, I just don't know when we will be able to add a little master to the East Palace." ”

As he spoke, Ji Fang secretly looked at Qi Changrong's expression.

Seeing that she was slightly stunned, as if she was thinking about it, her heart was hot and thought that there was a play, and said: "In the past few days, His Royal Highness and the two Zhaoxun have been inseparable, sleeping together, and the palace people have said that good things are coming soon." ”

This is not groundless, even Ji Fang has a faint expectation in his heart, just because he has witnessed the scene of His Royal Highness flirting with Zhao Xun several times, which makes him, a eunuch, blush.

Qi Changrong didn't know that Ji Fang had misunderstood because he had seen her refusing to serve Chun and Xia many times in order to leave the palace, and thought that he had listened to the rumors outside, so he knocked his head with the handle of a fan, hating that iron is not steel:

"After following Lonely for so many years, why haven't you learned to be smarter, you will listen to the gossip that circulates in the palace, those people speak true and false, if you believe everything, it will be too stupid."

Ji Fang rubbed his sore forehead, slightly aggrieved: "This can't be blamed on slaves, who let those people say that they have noses and eyes." ”

"They may say, but you cannot be trusted."

Inevitably, the rumors spread too quickly, and Qi Changrong had to explain a few words: "I am more than sixteen years old, and I haven't married a concubine yet, how can I say that I have an heir?" Besides, the eldest son of the lonely is definitely going to crawl out of the belly of the crown princess, if there are any more people in the palace who make nonsense, you can only deal with it according to the palace rules. ”

Seeing that she was getting more and more serious, with a little stern impatience in her words, Ji Fang understood that it was indeed her misunderstanding that she had made a fuss, so she hurriedly bowed her head and said, "If you obey the order, you will definitely deal with this matter." ”

Qi Changrong shook his head and said no more.

At this point, Ji Fang has followed her for many years, how could he not understand what she meant?

If you don't understand it anymore, maybe the head of the East Palace should also be replaced.

Qi Changrong was rarely relaxed, and led Ji Fang to wander in the imperial garden with great interest.

Soon, seeing Qi Ziruo standing in a field of several peony flowers commanding the palace people, he frowned and was extremely distressed.

After getting closer, Qi Changrong saw that several delicate peonies had been piled up on the side.

Qi Changrong stood still behind Qi Ziruo, poked his head out and looked at it for a long time, but he still couldn't see why.

However, Qi Ziruo was too distressed, and he didn't notice that there was one more person behind him, until Qi Changrong spoke out curiously.

"What are you doing here?"

Qi Ziruo was startled, and after saluting, he stirred his fingers and whispered, "I'm digging peonies." ”

Qi Changrong raised his eyebrows and remained silent.

She's not blind, and of course she can see that she's ordering people to dig up flowers.

She asked why.

Qi Ziruo also reacted that he seemed to have said nonsense, and his smile became shy: "Tomorrow is the fifteenth birthday of the Nine Emperor Sisters, she asked me to bring a few peonies from the imperial garden to the Nine Princesses' Mansion, and they will be transplanted by her, and tomorrow's birthday banquet will support her." ”

And she was worried about not knowing what to give as a birthday gift, so she pondered that bringing a few more exotic flowers and plants out of the palace would add color to the Nine Emperor Sisters.

But until now, most of the time has passed, and she can't even choose peonies.

Qi Changrong didn't look at it, and pointed casually: "That's it, I'll send it to the Nine Princesses' Mansion in a while." ”

Qi Ziruo paused, and said cautiously: "What if the ninth sister doesn't like it?" ”

"Let's just say that she chose it herself, and if she is not satisfied, she can return it to the East Palace."

Well, that's strong.

Today, the prince personally selected, and she didn't dare to retreat easily when she gave the ninth princess nine dares.

The palace people obeyed the command and quickly dug up the peony completely.

Qi Changrong walked with Qi Ziruo, who automatically lagged behind by half a step and did not dare to stand side by side with her.

"Will all the princesses go to Xiao Jiu's birthday banquet?"

There are only five princesses in the palace, and the rest of them die young, and those who are far away are far away.

But these princesses are not much younger than her, and the closest to her is only a month.

Although Qi Ziruo was no longer nervous when talking to her, he was still a little uncomfortable, and said hesitantly: "About yes, I heard that even the grounded Twelve Emperor Sisters also received an invitation, and Lian Ji asked for a favor for her, so that she could leave the palace tomorrow." ”

Qi Changrong pursed her lips in displeasure, she just hadn't taken care of things for a few days, so she let Qi Zihuan take advantage of the loophole.

She came out and was free, how could she be willingly imprisoned again?

Qi Changrong couldn't wait to look up to the sky and sighed, her father would really make trouble for her.

Qi Ziruo noticed that Qi Chang's face was unhappy, and suddenly became nervous again: "Why is Brother Prince angry?" ”

Qi Changrong glanced at the fear in her eyes, and said lightly: "Don't be afraid, it has nothing to do with you." ”

If it has nothing to do with her, it has a relationship with another person.

Qi Ziruo thought thoughtfully: "Brother Crown Prince is unwilling to let the Twelfth Emperor Sister out of the palace?" ”

Hearing her ask, Qi Changrong didn't hide it, hummed softly, and said: "Your twelfth imperial sister is changeable and reckless by nature, she can only mess around, maybe she will make jokes." ”

Tomorrow is the ninth princess banquet, not to mention whether the princess who was ordered out of the palace before she was too late is not favored, even if it is only for the name of her princess, there will be no fewer female guests who will go to the banquet tomorrow.

In addition, Qi Zihuan will definitely have a grudge in his heart if he is locked up for a few days, if he is bent on revenge, and when the time comes, he will make a joke, it is really unavoidable and impossible to prevent.

"That's it, tomorrow you go first, and Lone will come later."

Qi Ziruo blinked, looking at Qi Changrong's eyes a little inexplicable and dazed.

The prince's brother has never liked to participate in these things, and after receiving invitations from some people, at most people will be generously gifted, and he will never respond to the banquet easily, why did he change his mind today?

……

Lotus Pond Palace, a pool of lotus flowers opened outside the palace, from a distance, Lotus Ji seemed to be appreciating the lotus, and when she got closer, she found that she was buttoning her nails expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Tell the princess that the opportunity has come for her, whether she can grasp it depends on herself, she is old, rather than waiting for her father to marry a remote petty official, it is better to find a satisfactory one yourself." ”

She said to the most caring and resourceful grandmother around her: "Tomorrow you go with you, and if necessary, mention a few words in her ear." ”

The next day, the carriage marked with the sign of the East Palace slowly drove out of the three palace gates, and none of the guards encountered on the way dared to stop them, and they all avoided them respectfully.

Qi Changrong took the concubines around him out of the palace unimpeded.

The carriage is very large, and the inside is even more exquisite, the soft couch is enough for an adult to lie down straight, and if Qi Changrong is willing, he can also let people cook tea and eat snacks on the car.

It's really hard not to enjoy it.

But now Qi Changrong is sitting on the soft couch and closing his eyes to recuperate.

The sound of the car sliding into the carriage came into the carriage, and the two of them looked at each other, wanting to slow down the coachman, but knowing that she was very awake at the moment, and definitely not sleepy, so they could only give up.

Shi Xia Zhi played with a slingshot on the side, pursed his lips, and asked suspiciously: "Why does Your Highness have to attend the birthday banquet of the Ninth Princess?" The two princesses did not participate in the banquet before, isn't this obviously offending people? Besides, wouldn't it be nice to have a generous gift to the princess's mansion as usual? ”

Shi Chun rolled his eyes, and secretly pinched the soft flesh on Shi Xia's waist: "What nonsense, the two princesses don't dare to say anything even if they have a whisper, you need to worry about this?" ”

"Oops! I just don't understand and ask a few more words, why do you have to do so much? ”

Shi Xia exclaimed, his words full of grievances.

The two princesses are married, and although the husband's family is not prominent, it is also an existence that ordinary people cannot provoke.

No matter how much she says, she is also for the good of His Highness!

The two of them didn't deliberately stop fighting, and the quarrel made Qi Changrong extremely headache, so he had to open his eyes and glared at them helplessly.

Shi Chun smiled, and flattered him with exquisite snacks.

Qi Changrong pinched a piece and tasted it, and said, "Instead of speculating about why Lone went to the banquet, you might as well guess why the twelve princesses went out of the palace to eat and drink at the risk of being blamed by their father." ”

Qi Changrong paused, his expression cold: "Twelve is still in the lockdown period, and it stands to reason that he can't go anywhere, but Lian Ji can take the risk of falling out of favor and ask her father for a birthday grace...... You don't think it's the ninth and twelfth sisters, right? ”

"Lone has heard that Twelve is arrogant, no matter which princess she has a deep relationship with, and she has even more suspicions with Lao Jiujian, what caused Twelve to go to this royal sister's birthday banquet that she didn't like?"

"Leaving the palace once will not lift the grounding, but will make the father and emperor feel that their mother and daughter don't know the general situation, unless they ......"

Shi Chun suddenly realized: "Unless Lian Ji and the Twelve Princesses think that they can completely change the status quo after leaving the palace this time!" ”

Shi Xia was still puzzled, and pondered: "Why the hell...... Could it be that Lian Ji wants the emperor to see the picture of sisterhood, so as to change the image of the arrogant princess of the twelve? ”

Qi Changrong shook his head, a pair of indifferent eyes had already seen through everything.

No amount of intrigue can escape her eyes.

Whether it's a harem matter, or a court matter.

"Lian Ji was not born well, her mother's family can't speak in the court, the only thing she can rely on is her father's ethereal love, I don't know when she will take it back."

"Twelve will be in a year, and then we will be able to talk about marriage, as we all know, with the style of the father, I will never refer to the princesses as a concubine with a prominent background and a powerful official, Lian Ji wants to take this opportunity to turn over before the father has made a decree."
