At this time, because it was late, he took Zhao Manqing's carriage back home and entered the backyard where the ladies of the house lived, Jiang Shu separated from Ye Chiwan and went back directly to his Qingran Pavilion.

At this time, Ping Qian was sitting on the carved lampstand embroidery next to the screen in the outer room of the main room, and the task she arranged for her a few days ago to embroider ten purses for Ye Chengxuan made her spend almost all of her leisure time on this needlework.

Hearing the movement outside, Ping Qian raised his head slightly, and when he saw Jiang Shu from far and near, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, put down the embroidery work in his hand, and got up to greet him: "Miss, you're back." ”

Jiang Shu smiled lightly and nodded, lifted his skirt and stepped on the steps of the cloister, crossed the threshold and walked inside.

Ping Qian turned around and followed her footsteps, and said with a smile: "Miss and Miss Six won the first place in women's music and poetry respectively at today's lotus banquet, and Miss Fifth won the first place in women's musical instruments. ”

"We just came back, and we haven't had time to see her yet, how did she know?" Jiang Shu was slightly surprised.

Ping Qian smiled: "The old lady sent someone to wait near the Shouyang Eldest Princess's Mansion, and at noon, she had already received the news. ”

After finishing speaking, she raised her hand and pointed to the side: "The old lady said that Miss can make a lyric work like "Fortune Operator: Yongmei", which shows that she is still very wise in this aspect of learning, and specially ordered someone to send these books to Miss. ”

Jiang Shu looked in the direction of his finger, and his brows immediately frowned.

I saw that there was originally only a blue and white porcelain vase near the screen, and at this moment, several stacks of thread-bound books with dark blue covers were neatly piled up. On the cover of the top volume of each stack, the words "Historical Records", "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Shishuo Xinyu", and "Zizhi Tongjian" are also written in turn.

She usually reads some books, but they are all well-known medical books, and she reads them to improve her professional level. She has no interest in these literary books.

The old lady gave it to Mr. Bai, and she was too much of a hindrance to these books here, so she could only put them on the shelf.

However, she naturally wouldn't say this, and pulled the corners of her lips lightly and said, "Have you thanked the old lady for me?" ”

"Well," Ping Qian smiled in response, turned his head and looked out, "Miss, it's not too early, do you want the slave to go and prepare warm water for Miss now, so that Miss can take a bath and rest early." ”

"It's fine." Jiang Shu groaned slightly, nodded slightly, and watched her go away.

Because he slept relatively early the night before, as soon as it was dawn the next day, Jiang Shu got up early, and took advantage of the lack of people in the courtyard in the early morning, and quietly walked outside, planning to visit Lang Mo.

But just after leaving the gate of Yefu, he saw a low-key and luxurious blue-roofed carriage just stopped nearby.

Jiang Shu saw the appearance of the person who was driving the car, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and after a pause, he looked at the low-hanging curtain behind him and said, "Why is the Yu guard here?" Can the prince be inside? ”

Timidly Yu got out of the car, took a few steps forward, and saluted her with a fist: "No, the prince wants to humiliate himself to pick up Miss Ye to go to the palace." ”

"Pick me up?" Jiang Shu's brows frowned slightly, "But what did you say?" ”

"Miss Ye will know when she goes with her humble position." Cowardly Feather didn't answer directly, and raised his hand to make a gesture of invitation to her.

Seeing him say this, Jiang Shu knew that he couldn't ask anything more, so he simply nodded, walked over slowly, and got into the carriage.
