The crown prince and the prince ate a lot of things, Chen Youyi saw that he was about to choke, so he hurriedly picked up a cup of tea next to him and handed it over, "Drink saliva and go smoothly." ”

He took a big sip of tea, swallowed all the things in his mouth, and couldn't help but praise Chen Youyi, "Your skills have improved again, in the past, I agreed with you to come here to see me once every half a month, but now you have changed it to come once a month or two, but for the sake of you coming with a snack this time, I won't care about you." ”

After the prince and the prince had eaten and drunk enough, he sat back in his seat, but he still had those snacks in his eyes.

Chen Youyi called Xiaoxue over, "You go and put away these snacks for the prince and the prince, you must put them away properly." ”

Xiaoxue promised to go out with those snacks, and the crown prince and the princess fell on Chen Youyi, "You seem to have something to say to me." ”

Chen Youyi nodded, and her expression became serious, "There is something I want to ask the prince about it." ”

"Say what?"

"The crown prince has just returned from the capital, but have you seen Lord Xu in the capital?" Chen Youyi asked.

"Yes." The crown prince just replied simply, seeing that Chen Youyi seemed to want to speak and stopped, he said, "Not only Xu Linfeng but also that Li Tianyou, I have also seen it, Li Tianyou helped the emperor build a big hall in the palace, the emperor was very satisfied, so he rewarded him, and the two of them had a good life in the capital." ”

Chen Youyi's mind has actually been pressing one thing, and now asking Li Tianyou and Xu Linfeng, on the one hand, he wants to care about their situation in the capital, and on the other hand, he also wants to inquire about some things, but he doesn't know if these things can be mentioned in front of the prince and the prince.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, I'm an old man, I don't know about the world for a long time, for the sake of you bringing me snacks, maybe I can mention you on some things."

Hearing this, Chen Youyi also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said bluntly, "I want to know if the queen or the queen mother want me to return to the palace, and if they have done anything in this regard." ”

didn't expect Chen Youyi to ask about this matter, Zhang Zishou also paused slightly after hearing this, and pulled his gray beard with his hand, but did not answer directly.

However, Chen Youyi seems to have had a premonition of something, at least Zhang Zishou must know what is going on, after all, the relationship between the Xu family and the Queen Mother is very close, and it can be regarded as a close confidant of the Queen Mother, and although Zhang Zishou is not a direct member of the Xu family, he is also a person that the Queen Mother trusts very much.

If the Queen Mother really has any decision and wants to return to the palace, presumably the crown prince must also know.

Seeing that Zhang Zishou didn't speak, Chen Youyi said again, "What do you know about the crown prince, tell me directly, I also want to know about the affairs of the palace." ”

Zhang Zishou raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Youyi, "The Queen Mother really wants you to return to the palace, and after she knew that you were here, she also specially instructed Xu Linfeng to take care of you." ”

In this way, Xu Linfeng's kindness to himself may not be entirely out of his intention, but was entrusted by the Queen Mother.

"She is trying to get you back to the palace, but the anger on the emperor's side has not disappeared, although it has been so long since the events of the year, but the emperor still cares a lot, but the emperor is not such a ruthless person, he let you be outside, but also wants you to experience."

Chen Youyi nodded, now that she understands, it seems that there are still many people in the palace who want to let her go back, and judging from the current situation, it is very likely that she will go back.

If the emperor issued a holy decree and asked him to return to the palace, he would have to go back even if he didn't want to go back, but this matter made Chen Youyi frown.

"Why, you don't seem to want to go back." Zhang Zishou looked at Chen Youyi's frowning brow and asked.

She smiled helplessly, "Mr. Don't tell me, I think I live here more freely, compared to the cage like the palace, this place is more free, accompanied by green mountains and green waters, and I have a family around me, and I have made a career here, if it is you, how do you choose." ”

This made the crown prince a little surprised, and after thinking about it, he laughed, "Your idea is a little different from others, you are the eldest princess of Chen Guoyan, you can't do what you want, although you are more free outside, but every penny is earned by your own hard work, if you don't have this hard work, where does this silver come from." It's better to go back and be your eldest princess, you can have whatever you want, there are many people around you to serve, why bother with this heart. ”

"I don't think it's a matter of worrying, not to mention watching the career I do grow bigger day by day, I still have a sense of accomplishment in my heart, I don't covet money, I don't like the powerful very much, I prefer to see what I think in my heart become a reality under my efforts, I prefer to see the people around me get better and better under my influence."

She said proudly, looking at Zhang Zishou, "Since I came here, there are no less than 100 people working under me, even some people on the mountain are working in my dense peach forest, these people's lives are much better than before, this is what I want to do, and it is also my influence, if I go back to the palace and be a high eldest princess, how can these things be done." ”

Zhang Zishou's eyes showed a trace of doubt, and he tilted his head to stare at Chen Youyi, "Do you really think like this in your heart?" ”

That's exactly what I thought. Compared to enjoying the life of fine clothes and food in the palace, but losing the days of freedom, I prefer the current life to be unconstrained, do whatever I want, and with my hands I can also lay a place in the business world, isn't it better than sitting on the eldest princess? ”

People who have such thoughts are definitely not ordinary people, Chen Youyi's words made Zhang Zishou quite admirable, there are not many young people who have this kind of thought, Chen Youyi used to be a pampered golden branch and jade leaf, but now his thoughts are so selfless, even he, the prince and the prince, has to look at Chen Youyi with admiration.

"Then in your opinion, you don't want to go back to the palace, but if one day with the help of the Queen Mother, the emperor will send you back to the palace with a holy decree, you have to go back even if you don't want to go back, and at that time, everything outside is convenient for you and has nothing to do with it."

Chen Youyi is also thinking about these things, she definitely doesn't want to let go of these things and return to the palace, even if she lives in the capital instead of living in the palace at that time, but the capital is far away from here, and there is no way to take care of the business here, she has lived here for two years, and she has become accustomed to it, and she has begun to like it here.

What's more, there are still a lot of things to do on her own, so many ideas have not yet been realized, how can she leave.

"So I just want to ask the prince and the prince for a little favor."

In the end, the words came to the point, Zhang Zishou seemed to have guessed that she was asking for herself, "You tell me what kind of help you are first, as for whether I can help you, it depends on whether I am happy or not." ”

Chen Youyi smiled, "This little favor is nothing to you, I just hope that the crown prince and the princess will see the queen mother or queen when they enter Beijing next time, and mention in front of them that I don't want to go back to the palace, of course, I don't have to say it directly, just let them understand my feelings." ”

These words made Zhang Zishou unhappy for a while, "They are your family, can you really give up your family to stay here and never see them for the rest of your life, do you know that the Queen Mother and the Queen are thinking about you in their hearts, and they will do everything possible to let you return to the palace, and you give such an answer?" ”

Chen Youyi has no way to tell Zhang Zishou that the soul in the body now is no longer the eldest princess Chen Guochang at the beginning, so she does not have the kind of family affection she imagined for the queen mother and the queen.

It's just that my identity is like this, and some things still have to be done for the original owner, "At least I don't plan to go back for a short time, if I have the opportunity in the future, I will naturally go back to visit them, and I hope that the crown prince and the prince will be perfect, don't let the emperor recall me back to the palace too early." ”

Zhang Zishou shook his head helplessly, "How many people are wary of you going back to the palace, those people probably never dreamed of it, in fact, you don't want to go back at all, but they have taken a lot of painstry." ”
