Chapter 40: A Chance Encounter
Lin Yi often patrolled the palace, and just then he saw Bai Wanrou taking a man to Lin Feng's courtyard.
He didn't sneak along, because he had a relationship with that person and knew what his identity was.
At this time, he nodded and replied in a deep voice: "Yes, Lord Wang, she is still the leader of the Tai Hospital, Tai Doctor An, you should know." β
Chen Ruzhi raised his eyebrows, he did have some impressions of this person, he had also seen himself before, and his medical skills were indeed excellent.
Now Bai Wanrou can even get in touch with such a character?
You must know that he was lucky enough to meet Imperial Doctor An because of his reputation as a victorious general, otherwise the other party would not even know which little minion he was.
It seems that Bai Wanrou has really changed a lot recently......
Chen Ruzhi stroked his wrist with his eyes, as if he had already been a little strange to him before he knew it.
When did this feeling begin?
He couldn't figure it out, and he didn't want to dig deeper.
He hadn't figured out his unusual reaction to Bai Wanrou yet, let alone the other things.
"Go and find out if there is any secret to that incident back then."
Hearing this, Lin Yi lowered his head and prepared to retreat, but before he could walk out of the door of the room, he heard him add:
"That's right...... By the way, follow Bai Wanrou and see what she is going to do. β
Lin Yi was a little surprised by these words, but it seemed to be expected when he thought about it carefully.
He bowed and left the room, secretly determined to treat the princess and her maidservants better in the future.
The position of this princess is not surprising, probably because Bai Wanrou is sitting firmly.
Lin Yi sighed, and now it depends on when his own prince will open his mind and realize that he is tempted.
At that time, Bai Wanrou, who didn't know anything at all, was dumbfounded in the warehouse.
Almost all of them are treasures, including calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, and some extremely rare antiques.
Bai Wanrou was almost dazzled in it, and Qingtang beside her stared at it with big eyes.
"Princess, the prince's status is noble, coupled with his outstanding achievements, the greeting gifts and his collection from others are some treasures, are we ......?"
Her words reminded Bai Wanrou.
She herself is also from the Hou Mansion, and she has always been pampered in the palm of her hand, and rarely notices the gap in her identity.
It's like she has been married to Chen Ruzhi for so long, and she will always forget that he is still the prince of Jian'an, and he is a legend of the capital.
Bai Wanrou's heart was filled with a faint sourness, she really shouldn't have come to the warehouse to wander around.
Now that she has lost the favor of her father and brother, she can only rely on the power of her princess.
These rare objects were of no use other than to make her realize the gap between her and Chen Ruzhi.
"These are really not meaningful for us to open a store, so let's go to the market outside and find a shop."
Qingtang didn't know that she had thought about so many things in her mind, she just thought that she was thinking about opening a store, and she liked to hang outside, which would be extremely happy.
"Okay, Miss, I know that there is a store in the capital that has a lot of variety, maybe it will be of great help to you after reading it."
Seeing this, although Bai Wanrou knew that she was a little selfish, she was also amused to laugh, a woman like Qingtang who is always down-to-earth and generous is excellent, and she also likes this kind of temperament.
The two of them walked and strolled, and even though they had a purpose, they couldn't help but stop by the roadside stalls.
"Miss, the jewelry here is extremely good-looking, and the workmanship is quite exquisite, so the business of the shop has been very good."
When she arrived at the place, Qingtang brought Bai Wanrou in, and at a glance, she could see that this shop must have a very promising future.
The intriguing dΓ©cor alone attracts a lot of customers, not to mention the items sold inside.
If it weren't for the fact that she hadn't planned to do so before, she really wanted to take this place down directly.
But after thinking about the rest of the money in my hand, I'm afraid it is still not enough.
Bai Wanrou helplessly held her forehead, she always felt that she had been getting more and more poor recently, and she didn't know if it was an illusion.
"Okay, don't take care of me, you can look around if you want to shop, and I can also refer to the business model here."
Qingtang waited for a long time for this, and as soon as she gave the order, she immediately wandered around.
"Yo, isn't this Princess Jian'an, why is she so leisurely today, and she came out to hang out?"
Within a few steps, Bai Wanrou heard a shrill female voice behind her.
She turned her head suspiciously, and her eyes met the familiar eyebrows.
She raised her eyebrows, no wonder she was so disgusted by this person's tone, it turned out to be someone who also liked Chen Ruzhi.
Thinking that she had crossed paths with her before, Bai Wanrou was embarrassed to leave people aside.
"Why, after marrying the prince of Jian'an, don't you take me seriously? You don't bother to talk to you? β
Bai Wanrou was thinking about how to respond, but Lin Yueyi was already dissatisfied and took a few steps forward, almost pointing to her shoulder and asked.
"Miss Lin was too worried, but she didn't expect to meet you here, and she was a little shocked for a while."
She quietly brushed Lin Yueyi's fingers on her shoulders away, and her frowning eyebrows showed her master's dissatisfaction with this move.
Xu is look pleased Lin Yueyi, she didn't continue to trouble Bai Wanrou in public, she just snorted coldly.
"The princess finally met me once, why don't we go out for a walk together?"
Just seeing her pretending to be smart expression, Bai Wanrou quickly realized that something was wrong.
She looked around and saw that Qingtang was still in the shop, and her mood was a little relaxed.
"No, I came out with my girl today, she doesn't like the noise outside."
As if to prove her words, she called out, and Qingtang rushed over when she heard the sound.
"Miss, what's the matter? But is there something I need to do? β
Bai Wanrou shook her head and silently motioned her to look to the side with her eyes.
Lin Yueyi, as the daughter of the general of the chariot cavalry, is famous for her arrogant and domineering temperament, and almost everyone in the entire capital knows about it.
Just by glancing to the side, Qingtang immediately realized why Bai Wanrou called her over.
In the past, when Chen Ruzhi had not yet married the princess, Lin Yueyi was his famous candidate for the princess.
This candidate is also a bit particular, requiring both identity and character.
The reason why Lin Yueyi was able to overcome all difficulties at that time and become the talk of everyone in the capital was because of her fanatical pursuit of Chen Ruzhi.
Everyone knows that in addition to Bai Wanrou being the best person for Chen Ruzhi, Lin Yueyi is the proper second place.
It is precisely because of this that although the two have made friends before because of their family background, they have never dealt with each other, and only maintain superficial efforts.
"I remember that you didn't have only one servant girl in Luzhu before, but now you are flying on the branches and becoming a phoenix, and there are even more people I have never seen."
Lin Yueyi knew that Bai Fengqi hadn't taken care of Bai Wanrou for a long time because of her work, so it was not false to say this at this time, after all, her father's official position was high, second only to Bai Fengqi.
However, this official position is indeed harmful, if it weren't for the fact that her father was a subordinate of Chen Ruzhi, he didn't dare to use the emperor's holy decree to marry her, I'm afraid that she would be sitting in the position of Princess Jian'an now.
Thinking of this, Lin Yueyi was full of anger, this Bai Wanrou was just relying on one more holy decree than herself, otherwise how could she become a princess so logically?
"Miss Lin is just joking when she says this, I am the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and even when I was in the pavilion before, there were many girls."
"Not to mention that after sitting in the position of the princess, the prince was worried that I would be tired from working day and night, so he assigned me a few more subordinates."
The only thing that Lin Yueyi is jealous of Bai Wanrou is her position as the princess, because she has robbed Chen Ruzhi's favor, so she can't look down on herself like this.
Bai Wanrou knew this very well, and when she spoke, she deliberately emphasized how good Chen Ruzhi was to her, which made her more and more dissatisfied.
"Oh, it seems that I am ignorant, and I don't know that the princess is such a person who likes to show off."
Lin Yueyi couldn't say anything about her, and she was so panicked that she could only poke and sneer.
Hearing this, Qingtang, who was hiding beside Bai Wanrou, chuckled.
Her young lady is really powerful, and just a few words made Lin Yueyi speechless to refute.
"There's no way, the prince treats me so well, I always have to know how to be grateful."
Bai Wanrou sighed helplessly, but her heart was full of pride.
She never thought that one day Chen Ruzhi would become a tool for her to show off her power in front of others.
The thought made her heart skip a beat, and for some reason it felt as if a pair of eyes were staring at her behind her.
She looked back for a moment, but there was no strange figure.
But she didn't know how fast Lin Yi hid at that moment.
"Anyway, it's the first time I've met Miss Lin in this kind of shop, I wonder what kind of things you're here to buy?"
In order to prevent Lin Yueyi from making trouble for herself again, Bai Wanrou simply spoke in advance.
"I haven't thought about it yet, I just met the princess here, so you can give me a support, right? Look at what's right for me here. β
Although she didn't know why she suddenly changed the topic, thinking that Bai Wanrou could serve herself, Lin Yueyi suddenly felt a burst of happiness in her heart.
She knew that Bai Wanrou would not refuse her request.
After all, the reason why the emperor's decree could be issued at that time was because Bai Wanrou's image in everyone's hearts was gentle and lovely.
is not like a shrew like a bazaar, but a beauty of the jasper type of a small family.
Sure enough, Bai Wanrou was only stunned for a moment, but she didn't object.
"Okay, I see this bracelet is good, it looks very good Miss Lin's complexion, why don't you try it?"
Lin Yueyi glanced in the direction of her finger, it was indeed a very well-made jade bracelet, and it was more than enough to match her identity.
"It looks good, don't try it, I'll buy it directly."
Her answer was probably expected by Bai Wanrou, and when she heard this, she hooked her lips and smiled, making Lin Yueyi, who originally felt that she was in a superior position, a little unclear.
"This necklace looks very beautiful, it should be just right to wear it around Miss Lin's neck, do you want to give it a try?"
Every object she fancied hit Lin Yueyi's heart, so that she couldn't find fault even if she wanted to.
"I never try to buy things, I wrap them all up."
