On this side, Chiba went back to the room for a while, and then remembered to look for cotton, but Sister-in-law Li came in and said that the cotton was out, and it took a long time to see this little girl come back. Chiba asked her where she went, and Cotton told the truth: "The slave maid went to the bamboo forest to take a look and see if there were any young bamboo shoots to dig up and eat." ”

Chiba smiled: "Nonsense, the bamboo forest that was planted just now, the roots have not grown, where do the bamboo shoots come from?" ”

Cotton stared at the princess again and again, and asked with a smile: "You are not in a bad mood, the slave maid still thinks that you are unhappy for the concubine." ”

There is no need to hide in front of cotton, Chiba responded: "If you are not happy, it is also for the queen's troubles, the horse is a good person, how can I be unhappy?" But he was kind enough to relieve me, but he didn't know that he offended the queen because of this, and a person like me would only bring endless trouble to his kindness. ”

"But you and the horse are husband and wife, how can there be ...... between husband and wife?"

Before Cotton's words were finished, Chiba had already shook his head: "Why do you rely on someone else for no reason?" Just because he is a good person, he can't do this, and it will be better if he can return his freedom. ”

Hearing this, Cotton thought of something amazing, could it be that the princess still wants to be separated from the horse in the future? She didn't dare to think about it, so she suppressed this thought first, and said with a smile: "You haven't thought that you and the colt will really be husband and wife?" ”

Chiba blushed, looked at the cotton in a daze, and only relieved herself after a while, and directly bypassed this sentence and instructed her: "I'm thirsty, go make tea." ”

In the deep palace, the third princess Jinzhu walked around the imperial garden, went to Fengyi Palace to find her mother, and met the queen sent to the Shenshan Hou Mansion to return to the palace to restore her life, she entered the door to see the grandmother lying on the ground and repeatedly accused, saying that it was not good to do things, and begged the queen to punish.

"Is this being kicked out? Ji Qianye is so powerful now. Jinzhu didn't believe it, frowned and asked, "Didn't you say that the queen mother sent it?" ”

The old lady said deliberately: "What the slave said, I'm afraid that it was because of the queen mother's dispatch that Princess Chiba despised the slave and maid so much." ”

Jinzhu raised her eyebrows, rolled her eyes, and asked, "Where is the horse?" ”

Mama hurriedly said: "The slave maid is to let the horse come out, and the subordinates of the family are all as burly as a mountain, and the slave and maid really can't deal with it." ”

The queen chuckled lightly, and the grandmother hurriedly fell to the ground to plead guilty, Jinzhu picked up the long shawl and sat under her mother's knees, and sneered: "The queen mother, you heard, Ji Qianye doesn't take you in her eyes now, she can be free, and that Liang Dingshan also helps her everywhere." ”

"That's her colt, help her deserve." Having said that, the queen was very disdainful, she gently brushed away the gold silk tassel wrapped around her daughter's sideburns, "It's only been a long time, what are you anxious about, when she has nothing, then you will step on her head." ”

Before the words fell, the queen's henchman came in from outside the door and said happily: "Uncle Guo sent someone to send news that the eldest prince's ship has docked, and he can return to Beijing in two or three days after a little rectification." ”

Jinzhu smiled: "Cousin is finally coming back?" ”

The queen is really very happy, this is her only cousin and nephew, two years ago was sent by the emperor to the East, there is no news across the sea, and her heart has been uneasy, and now the stone in her heart has finally fallen. Since her sons died one after another and she could no longer have children, she pinned all her hopes on her nephew.

Just as she was happy, Jinzhu suddenly became unhappy, and said to her mother with a frown: "You must send someone to watch Ji Qianye, don't let her seduce her cousin." ”
