Wen Yi sat in the carriage home, only feeling tired, and all the experiences she had experienced in the East Palace kept coming to her mind, making her feel a little relieved in fear.

She wasn't worried about provoking the resentment of Zhu Jingshen, the former prince of King Kang, and there would be any trouble. A child of the clan who has lost the prince, if he is favored in the palace, or has the protection of his father and brother, he may be able to make waves in the capital. But now that he has provoked the suspicion of the prince, and then he has caused the palace people specially sent to the East Palace by the queen, what else can he do in the future? The couple is about to leave the capital, and they will be thousands of miles away in the future, and they are not afraid that he will do anything bad again. Besides, they have already had a grudge with each other.

As for the fact that Kangcheng was originally the domain of King Kang's Mansion, and there were many remnants of King Kang's Mansion in the city, she was not afraid. The hint in the crown princess's words indicates the position of the East Palace: the crown prince does not want General Kang Nanzhu to get too close to King Kang's mansion. Why? Naturally, it was intended to curb the power of King Kang's old people. Since sooner or later they are all going to be opposed, it is not bad for such a grudge.

However, Wen Yi also knew one thing clearly, just now she chose to put the affairs of the people in the summer palace on the bright side, which really made a big fuss, and maybe it would spread outside the palace. If there are idlers who don't know the inside story, it may damage her reputation, but she really can't care about it. She didn't know what Zhu Jingshen had preached in the palace that had anything to do with her, in order to make sure that the prince believed in Liu Dongxing's loyalty, she put up with this grievance. As long as he leaves the capital for a few years, who will remember a little rumor of chasing the wind and shadows? All she needs is her husband's trust.

Wen Yi let out a long breath, and suddenly remembered the matter of the Ruan family sisters and others mentioned by the crown princess, and couldn't help but feel guilty again. Although it was an accident to get acquainted with these young ladies, she did rely on their fame to benefit from the confrontation with the Gu family and the Liu family. However, she really didn't regard them as her friends, even the crown princess Du Yuanru, who had always been very kind to her, she had always regarded her as a nobleman, and every time she met, she kept etiquette, even if she was not as restrained as before, she was still careful at all times. How can this be considered a friend? In the eyes of these daughters, a friend like her is probably very disappointing, right?

The last time Jiang Yao mentioned that she was going to set up a banquet to invite a few young ladies to play, although it was an excuse, she was already a little unhappy when she didn't know the inside story, and she always felt that she was deliberately slapping them up. After all, if the young lady of that kind of family didn't intend to have a relationship, she would be two people at all, and it would be rare for them to meet. In fact, between real friends, where can there be so many scruples? Jiang Yao can behave generously in front of many noble girls, those daughters, and even the nobles of the palace, have no intention of despising her, so why are they so restrained?

Wen Yi asked herself if she was too inferior and felt that she couldn't hold her head up in front of those noble girls, so she was unwilling to get closer to them. But after thinking about it, she felt that she would not be so unbearable. There is humility, but she is not rude when dealing with them. Maybe it's because of your own temperament? Since the beginning of her previous life, she has not been a sociable person, she likes to stay quietly in her own place to do things, reading, needlework, housekeeping...... Even when I get along with my relatives and sisters, I am mostly silent, only laughing with familiar people, and just smiling politely at strangers and even sisters with whom I don't have much contact. She really doesn't have a good temperament.

Wen Yi remembered Wen Hui's evaluation of her again, like a "quail", and said that she was not suitable to be an official wife with such a temperament. Although she was not convinced, Wen Yi had to admit that Wen Hui's words were right. She has such a temperament, even in the face of her own family and relatives, she is still so restrained, let alone in front of outsiders? So what will she do after she takes office with Dongxing? You can't help but associate with the daughters of other officials, right?

Wen Yi pounded her head, her heart was crossed, and she made up her mind: she must change herself, even if not for herself, but for her husband

Back at her home in Yangliver Hutong, Wen Yi got into the car with a smile and went to see her grandmother first. Seeing this, Mrs. Lu was also happy in her heart, so she said, "Look at your heavy body, hurry back to the house and change it." Rest for a while, I'll eat fast with your sixth sister at noon, you don't have to come. ”

Wen Yi hurriedly said: "Then I will also come over to accompany my grandmother and sister to eat together." ”

"No, I said I would come back for lunch before I went out. He can't get used to our fast, don't be wronged by him. ”

Wen Yi didn't insist any longer, and returned to the house to change clothes. Before the change came out, I saw a gust of wind swept into the house, but Liu Dongxing, who was a little anxious, was first happy to see her, and then immediately grabbed her arms: "I entered the palace today, but what happened?" Are you okay? ”

Wen Yi was a little strange: "How do you know?" Something really went wrong. Suddenly it occurred to him that the rumors of the East Palace had spread outside, and his face couldn't help but be a little ugly: "Xianggong, this matter is because others are calculating me, you must believe me." ”

Liu Dongxing was a little surprised: "What? Could it be that someone deliberately led you to that kind of thing? Yes, you are a foreign minister, let you see it, it will be difficult to hide the matter, and the palace people also have some thoughts. ”

Wen Yi was stunned: "What did you say?" She began to feel wrong: "What rumors have you heard?" ”

Liu Dongxing was stunned: "I just met with a few old friends, three or four of them have just been transferred to the forbidden army, mentioning the news that the East Palace just came out, saying that it was a palace person who was given to the crown princess by the queen, and he was actually delusional, intending to be in the garden of the East Palace, Zhu Jingshen, the son of King Kang, but he was inadvertently broken by the edict of entering the East Palace today, and the trouble was about to start, causing the prince and the princess to come forward. Because the people in that palace were given by the queen, the prince did not dare to be specialized, so he had to send the people in that palace back to the middle palace. I remembered that you happened to go to the East Palace today, and since the news of the crown princess's pregnancy came out, there are few foreign ministers and daughters who can go to the East Palace to see the two families except Du Ruan, who else will see this? How? Is there something wrong with it? ”

Wen Yi was stunned for a while before she reacted, looked around, and called Qiuguo: "Go and guard the door, don't let people in." Qiu Guo hurriedly responded, and walked around the house before going out, making sure that no girl was left, before going out and closing the door again.

Wen Yi pulled Liu Dongxing to sit down, and explained in detail what happened in the East Palace today, before saying, "I don't understand, how did the rumors become like this?" Prince: This is ...... Intentionally? ”

Liu Dongxing thought about it secretly, and then smiled: "I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, in short, the palace man sent by the queen does have a fair and honest reason to get rid of it." Since the matter involves foreign ministers and relatives, even the queen mother will not have anything to say. ”

Wen Yi was stunned: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did it on purpose?" He frowned, "Could it be that even the prince knows Zhu Jingshen's small movements?" ”

Liu Dongxing sneered: "What kind of person is His Royal Highness the Prince? The attendants in the East Palace are all waiting for his husband and wife to eat and live, and if there is a little unreliability, it will endanger their lives at any time. How can His Highness no longer be on guard? Since the palace people are given by the queen, if nothing goes wrong, no one can kick people out. Isn't that a good reason to do now? Fortunately, His Royal Highness is still a person who understands, and knows that you are being counted today, and thinking that I have to guard Kangnan for him, in order to chill the hearts of his courtiers, he let people spread such rumors and clear your suspicion. In this way, others will only say that the former Prince Kang has a personal affair with the people of that palace, but they will not involve you. ”

Wen Yi was secretly shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness is also kind to do this. Otherwise, if this rumor spreads, should I still be a human being? Don't think too badly of people all the time. ”

Liu Dongxing sighed: "It's not that I want to think too badly of people, but I'm really disappointed in my heart." He is the crown prince, even if he doesn't do these things, I will be loyal to my duty, why bother to provoke again? Even if I don't have the slightest grudge against that deep son, as long as he does something he shouldn't do, I will do my best to stop it. Why bother like this, and also involve your inner family, if there is a case, won't it hurt you? ”

Wen Yi said: "Don't think about the prince like this, he is not familiar with you, even if he knows that you are a loyal person, he will inevitably have to think more before entrusting him with big things." Jinshang and the second uncle have been together for decades, and when they should be suspicious, they have no less doubts. And I don't think that the prince will know everything about Shen Shizi, although His Royal Highness the prince is wise, Shen Shizi is also a cunning person, that is in the East Palace, if he is not sure, how dare he rashly instruct the palace people to lure me away? And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince entered the East Palace, but for most of the year, the Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Queen and the concubines of the harem were all in the palace, and there were several royal nobles who were ready to move, how can you be sure that he is really clear about what happened in the East Palace? The palace people sent by the queen are indeed to be wary of, but she is just doing some errands to spread the word and guide the way, and the queen is known as a virtuous person, so she will not let this palace person do anything bad in the East Palace. The prince has a lot of opportunities, where does he have time to keep an eye on a small palace person? Moreover, Zhu Jingshen was originally raised in the palace, and the inner garden of the palace walked with him, and he often went to the East Palace, so he stayed there for a while, who would be suspicious? ”

Liu Dongxing couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it: "I know that you have a good relationship with the crown princess, and I also know that the prince and his wife are Qin Se and Ming, but now you almost suffered a big loss, why not only are you not angry, but you speak for the prince everywhere?" If it weren't for the prince's and his wife's lax management of the East Palace, there would be no such incident, but you only blame me for thinking too much. ”

Wen Yi blinked, reached out and gently tugged at his sleeve: "I don't blame you, I just think it...... You seem to have a lot of misunderstandings about the prince...... When you came back from the East Palace that day, you were obviously very happy, but because of a little guess, you thought of the prince more and more badly? ”

Liu Dongxing sighed: "It's not that I think people are getting worse and worse, but it's that the heart of guarding against people is indispensable." Someone is calculating me, even if that person is in a high position, I have to figure things out, right? ”

Wen Yi pursed her lips: "It's just that the superior is suspicious, you are loyal to the imperial court, and you have no collusion with several palaces, and when you go to Kangnan, you will also act according to the orders of the superiors." In that case, why don't we put aside all that we have and don't and concentrate on what we are going to do after we go to Connang? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just asking for peace of mind and making sure that nothing goes wrong, and you will follow his wishes."

Liu Dongxing looked at his wife helplessly: "You said it lightly, I don't like the suspicion of the superior the most." Don't talk about my second uncle, you just look at Xiao Shi, who also made countless contributions to the court back then, and knew that he was old, and there were only a few children and grandchildren under his knees, but he still didn't miss the old feelings and cut them all. If it weren't for Xiao Shi leaving early, and he has been incognito for many years, maybe he would have encountered an accident a long time ago. He is an old man with high morality, and he has ended up in such a field, I am just a little person who has just emerged, how dare I not be careful? ”

Wen Yi sighed: "We won't do anything that will cause the court to be suspicious, as long as we follow orders, how can we end up like that?" She didn't want to make it too clear, although the court was ruthless to the Xiao family, but if Doctor Xiao's children and grandchildren hadn't participated in the battle for succession, how could they end up like that?

Liu Dongxing shook his head: "What is the situation now?" Although the crown prince is the prince, he has not officially ascended the throne for a day, and variables exist for a day. What's more, even if he sits in that seat, it is difficult to guarantee that everything will be peaceful. This is also a battle for succession, otherwise what is the Zheng Wangfu doing there? As long as we are impartial, it is not wise to obey the prince's orders too much. ”

Wen Yi was a little anxious: "Even if you don't want to be involved, don't make it too obvious." That's the prince, who is the holy relative, and what if the Zheng Wangfu wants to make trouble? Isn't the unorthodox General Secretary investigating there? As long as the evidence is conclusive, there will be no more climate, but if you are a little neglectful of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's orders, how can you please him when he ascends the throne as emperor in the future? Xianggong, that one is not soft-hearted, how close is the Zheng family to him? Miss Zheng is also his childhood sweetheart, but marrying Miss Du is more beneficial to him, he said to Miss Zheng and gave up, knowing what the Shengshang's attitude towards Dongping Wangfu was, he still married Miss Zheng. Uncle Niang is still like this, let alone to other people."

Liu Dongxing was taken aback by her words, and said with a smile: "Lady, what's wrong?" Suddenly excited? Don't worry, I'm not trying to disobey Donggong's orders, I'm just trying to stay away. As long as I am faithful to my duties and act according to the orders of the court everywhere, no matter who sits in that position, I cannot find fault with me. He smiled and patted the back of Wen Yi's hand: "It's okay, I won't shout what I think in my heart, as long as I do something that no one can find fault, who can care if I hate it in my heart?" ”

Wen Yi looked at him helplessly and closed her mouth depressedly. It is said that Liu Dongxing also has such thoughts because of her, she really can't blame too much, but when she thinks about the future, she can't let go.

Liu Dongxing seemed to sense that she was in a bad mood, so he laughed and started gossiping: "Speaking of which, how could the rumored palace man surnamed Xia be willing to help Shen Shizi spread the word?" Could it be true, as the rumors say, that she intended to please the deep world? ”

Wen Yi said sullenly: "Who knows? I think it should be because Shen Shizi was raised under the name of the queen and was more familiar with the people around the queen, so he could instruct the people of the summer palace, right? ”

Liu Dongxing shook his head: "Since the queen will send her to the East Palace, then she must not be an ordinary palace person, and the queen will give the palace people, how can she only give one?" How old are you when you see the people in the summer palace today? What does it look like? ”

Wen Yi was stunned, and couldn't help but concentrate on recalling: "She is only sixteen or seventeen years old, but her appearance is quite beautiful, and there are really few people in the East Palace I have seen who can compare with her." "Pause," frankly speaking, she is not inferior to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess in terms of appearance, but she is far inferior in bearing. ”

"That's it." Liu Dongxing smiled, "I heard that this summer palace person was only given to the East Palace after the crown princess became pregnant, since there is such a beauty, maybe it is not just an ordinary palace person." It's a pity that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is obviously wary of her, and she can't get ahead, right? But if she can't get ahead, the middle palace will also blame her for being useless. In contrast, instead of waiting idly for something to go wrong and be chased away, it is better to find another home. He looked at Wen Yi, "Speaking of which, the people of this palace are not wronged, but Shen Shizi is a little unlucky, he thought that he was the one who used people, but he didn't expect that he was actually being used." ”

Wen Yi's face was a little gloomy, and she didn't want to mention that person again, so she turned her face away: "Before I leave Beijing, I plan to go to the Huguo Mansion, the Dongyang Hou Mansion, the Cha Family, and the Long Family to say goodbye to the young ladies of those families." ”

Liu Dongxing was stunned: "Why?" Those kinds of people are not something we can befriend in the first place. If it's for me, just go to General Shangguan's house. If you go too often, you will attract suspicion from above. Didn't you tell me not to be too obvious? ”

Wen Yi glanced at him angrily: "Where is it for these?" I'm going to say goodbye to my friend," he ignored him, went straight into the warm pavilion, opened the top cabinet on the kang, and carefully selected a chic gift.

She doesn't want to be estranged from the Huguo Mansion now, and her obsession with going east can't be changed for a while, so it doesn't matter, she will slowly figure out a way. Anyway, sooner or later, the crown prince will ascend to the throne and show his means, and when the time comes, Dongxing will understand his painstaking efforts. As long as she is always by his side, she is not afraid that he will make a big mistake.

The first thing to do now is to change yourself to practice how to interact with people first, and you can no longer stubbornly guard your own small yard. Dongxing let go of the foreign post, as his wife, she will have to get used to socializing with people sooner or later in the future, so let's start with these friends

Wen Yi was full of ambition, and glanced back at the eastbound, his eyes revealing firmness.

Liu Dongxing was a little confused, looking at his wife's actions, he couldn't help but be at a loss.
