The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

Mrs. Chu also sounded very surprised: "It turned out to be the fourth girl and the fifth girl?"

"Correct!"

Chu Jinyao couldn't help but look back at Chu Jinxian, and they were caught off guard from the other's eyes.

Mrs. Chu was also caught off guard in the room. At this time, it's natural not to say that Chu Jinmiao will be swept out by her soon. Mrs. Chu said deliberately, "Since the county owner likes it, then we naturally obey. Wait. In a few days, I let them clean up, and then let them go out to study with the county lord."

With this kind of joint, who else mentioned that Chu Jinmiao was going to the temple to cultivate his body and cultivate his sexuality?

The crisis that Chu Jinmiao was about to give up the nunnery was solved in this way.

Chu Jinmiao came out of his yard, freshly cleaned, radiant, and he couldn't see the languid look of the previous few days. Her eyes are still a bit swollen. She must have been crying these days, but her expression is very arrogant: "There is a saying that Bole knows the Chollima, and there is also a saying that the organs are exhausted. Some people, exhausted. He wanted to take me down, but it was a pity that I had nothing to do with the bamboo basket.

When Chu Jinmiao said this, he was proud and arrogant in front of all the sisters. The third girl rolled her eyes in secret, the sixth girl's expression was faint, like an old monk entering Ding, and Chu Jinyao continued to do her own work, completely pretending to not hear it.

If God is really eye-catching, he won't let you jump down.

Chu Jinyao thought badly in her heart.

After waiting for fifteen, the end of the year gradually dissipated, and most of the snow on the road had melted, Changxing Hou and Zhao personally set up a car to visit the Huailing Prince's Mansion, and brought Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinmiao along the way.

This time Chu Jinyao will stay at the Prince's Mansion for more than a month, and then stay at home for a few days before coming to the Prince's Mansion. Chu Jinyao didn't know how long this kind of two-headed race would last, but it can be predicted that because there are two places for her to live, her clothes, jewelry, maids, etc. can't be taken away, and she has to stay. Some spares. Due to various factors, when Chu Jinyao went out this time, the people around him must be able and smart, but the house cannot be left alone. After thinking deeply, Chu Jinyao decided to take the palace mother, Linglong, and Campanulaceae to go out, while leaving the honest and faithful Lilac behind as a guard.

Before leaving, Chu Jinyao checked and checked the private room of the West Wing. After confirming that it was correct, she locked the door and secretly left Dingxiang a key to the West Wing, and she took away all the rest. Although Dingxiang has the key to the wing, the box inside is locked separately. Chu Jinyao is not afraid of other people's tricks, leaving the key for Dingxiang mainly just in case.

Chu Jinyao, maternal grandmother, and Linglong grouped their commonly used jewelry and clothes into two large boxes and brought them into the car together. There are things that are commonly used daily in the palace. They bring too much and they don’t look good. They are the best to show their guests. However, even though it was to be a guest, the nature of the palace is special after all. You must always have enough property around you. If something unexpected happens suddenly, Chu Jinyao lacks money, and it's not good to show your cowardice. Before leaving, the old lady Chu called Chu Jinyao over and secretly stuffed Chu Jinyao two hundred taels of silver. Counting the two hundred taels on the bright side, Chu Jinyao had 400 taels of silver. Four hundred taels of silver can already buy a three-entry mansion in Taiyuan. The old lady has a small abacus in her heart. She is afraid that Chu Jinyao will be underestimated by the people of the palace, so she must hold up the facade.

In fact, Chu Jinyao herself has no shortage of four hundred taels of silver bills, and she pays thousands of taels every month. But the old lady is ready, can Chu Jinyao still refuse? At least in the future, all her apparent expenditures will have to be counted into these four hundred taels.

"Girl, the boxes are all placed, and the exposed areas in the room have been wiped. You can sit inside and have a rest."

"Well, good." Chu Jinyao reluctantly got up and walked to the house arranged by the county palace. Her house is arranged in a garden. The place is not too big. There are three rooms on the front. There is a penthouse under the eaves. There is just a wall on the east and west sides. There are no wing rooms. There are two inverted houses at the southern end for the next people to live in. . This courtyard is far less spacious and bright than her own Chaoyun courtyard. Fortunately, the place is elegant and elegant. Soon after going out, there is a lotus pond. The surroundings of the house are full of flowers and trees, and the flowers bloom undefeated in all seasons.

Chu Jinyao especially liked the two begonias in the yard, and there was a tall jacaranda behind the house. It must be very beautiful when the spring flowers bloom.

As soon as Chu Jinyao arrived, she couldn't put it down with these flowers and trees, and she didn't even bother to go in and look at the house. Linglong and Kikyo took advantage of this effort and wiped the areas they could touch with water again.

Chu Jinyao reluctantly was pulled away from the flower tree by the maid, and pushed into the house to rest. This small courtyard is not big, as if it was prepared for the boudoir girls when it was built, so the courtyard layout is very exquisite, and even the houses are beautiful and delicate.

After Chu Jinyao entered the house, he first saw the hall in the middle. A picture of a beautiful woman was hung on the wall in the middle of the hall. Underneath were two armchairs, and a tall table was placed in the middle. This was obviously the master sitting when he was waiting for guests. The place. Below are two rows of wooden chairs with vases and fruits dotted with them. There is nothing to look at. Chu Jinyao then walked to the west. The hall is separated from the west by a four-panel screen, embroidered with a picture of the beauty of begonia and peony, which is extremely rich and elegant.

There is a Babu bed in the innermost part of the west room, and the bedding pillows on it have been replaced by Changxing Houfu's own. Babu beds are expensive to build. The outermost mahogany hollowed-out pillar fences have everything you need, such as footrests and bedside tables. Once you put down the outermost bed net, here is like a small house. A Babu bed and a dressing table are placed in the west room. There is really not much space left, so all the Luohan beds and small kang tables used for hospitality are placed in the east room, waiting for friends from the boudoir to visit in the future. The reception in the middle hall is too far away, and Dongjian's close and indiscriminate furnishings are just right.

Chu Jinyao patrolled around from the inside out, feeling that the preparations of the Royal Mansion of Huailing County had been very dedicated. Fortunately, the palace did not misestimate the relationship between her and Chu Jinmiao's sisters. If they were arranged in a courtyard, it would be lively.

Chu Jinmiao's residence is not far away, passing through the lotus pond, the small wooden pavilion facing the water is her residence. It was still winter, and Chu Jinmiao couldn't see much. If she waited for the lotus in the pond to bloom in midsummer, she would be living near the lotus, it would be extremely quiet and elegant.

When removing makeup in the evening, Bellflower came back from outside inquiring about the news, and said to Chu Jinyao: "Girl, I secretly went to the fourth girl’s house to see. The furnishings in her house are very cold, with plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum embroidered in the middle. On the west side is a canopy bed, and on the east side there is nothing but a table and a collapsed table. They are empty wherever they look, and the wind blows in and they can make echoes. It's not as comfortable as the girl's here."

Chu Jinyao chuckled and laughed. If anything could produce an echo, Platycodon grandiflorum would kill people. Chu Jinyao glared at her from the mirror: "You would say that you are not allowed to play with others outside."

"I know." Kiji Nunu said, "But just like that, the four girls still like it. She also said that it's best to live near the lotus in winter. When you push the window, you can see the house full of residual lotus. I can hear the wind hitting the stalks, and it is extremely quiet."

Chu Jinyao felt, "I remember there was still ice on the side of the lotus pond, isn't she cold?"

Kikyo shook his head, and Chu Jinyao looked at the furnishings in his room at this time, and suddenly felt that the palace was worthy of the palace, not to mention the money, and their kind of noble family was far inferior to this kind of manipulation of people's minds.

Chu Jinyao murmured: "I don't know if the ice in the pool is firm or not. With such a large pool, flat and bright, the skating car must be fun."

Linglong was taken aback, and hurriedly called: "Girl!"

Chu Jinyao recovered, waved his hand and said, "I just said casually, I save the weight. Today you have worked a day, rest early. Tomorrow morning, please greet the old princess, and then you have to go to accompany the county lord. Class is in. There are a lot of things."

"Yes."

The two Linglong Platycodons combed Chu Jinyao's hair smoothly, served Chu Jinyao to bed, and closed the outermost fence. Chu Jinyao only saw the light outside suddenly dimmed, as if she was alone in a small independent space, and then the light outside the bed was also turned off.

Chu Jinyao closed her eyes and secretly said that it was time to sleep. She habitually wanted to say good night, when she suddenly remembered that she was alone now, and no one listened to it.

Chu Jinyao stretched out her hand and touched the jade pendant under her pillow. The jade pendant was warm and cold at first, but could not tell at all. It used to be able to spit out people's words and transform into form in vain.

Good night, Zize. Chu Jinyao whispered in her heart, before closing her eyes and falling asleep.

Before Chu Jinyao entered his dream, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. The other party was firmly surrounded, only the corners of the ocher red dress and a pair of clear and bright, slightly smiling eyes were visible.

Chu Jinyao thought in a daze, she might have hallucinations. She remembered it every day, thinking too often, leading to seeing everyone like someone she knew. That man and Zize should be just a little similar, but she was regarded as the same person.

Chu Jinyao secretly reviewed herself, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Chu Jinyao got up early and went to greet the old concubine of the palace.

Like all families, the old princess has the supreme status in the mansion. Whenever she asks for peace, the old princess’s house is always full of people, the grandchildren’s concubines, the daughter-in-law Chu Zhu, the princess concubines, and the masters. His maidservants were all huddled together.

Now, there are two more Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinmiao.

Chu Jinyao arrived earlier than Chu Jinmiao, and Chu Jinmiao hurried away to the courtyard of the old concubine, and when he lifted the curtain, he found that Chu Jinyao was already there. Chu Jinmiao's face stretched suddenly, and Chu Jinyao didn't move his eyes, Quandang couldn't see it.

Anyway, after what happened last time, I'm afraid the people in the county mansion already knew the relationship between the two of them. In that case, they still pay attention to the ugliness of the family.

It's rare for the old princess to see so many juniors, and Le's mouth couldn't close. The county lord Lin Baozhu is the most comfortable person in the room. She nestled in the arms of the old princess and acted like a baby: "Grandma, am I going to class today?"

"You, the skinny is like a monkey, and I don't want to move forward!" The old princess touched the tip of the county lord's nose and cursed affectionately.

The county owner immediately hugged the old princess's arm and acted foolishly. Chu Jinyao looked a little surprised. Mrs. Chu was always serious. A few of their sisters, even the most favored Chu Jinxian and the youngest Seventh girl, did not dare to seduce Mrs. Chu in this way. Home, granddaughter and grandmother get along like this.

The old princess seemed to be so annoyed, so she had to say: "Well, since you haven't recovered your heart, let's relax for another day. Remember, tomorrow you have to go to school for everything you say!"

The county owner immediately responded. Chu Jinyao thought it was the county owner's face. As long as the county owner requested it, the old princess and the princess couldn't bear to refuse. But when she saw someone at noon, she knew she was thinking too simple.

The county concubine smiled and introduced: "This is my maiden niece, named Yang Qixia. You will go to school together in the future, don't get a share."

Chu Jinyao looked at the woman next to the princess princess. The surname is Yang, who is also the niece of the princess, and is supposedly the cousin of the county lord and the cousin of the first son.

Chu Jinyao immediately gave birth to a strange sense of familiarity.

Yang Qixia wore a white silk jacket with a red pleated skirt underneath. Like the princess princess, she has a round face and a short stature. She is amiable. Yang Qixia smiled and pulled Chu Jinyao's hand, looked around for a few times, and then sighed: "The first time I saw such a good-looking sister, I only found out when I saw my sister today. It turns out that all those years have been in vain."

Chu Jinyao smiled awkwardly, and said quickly: "I can't be, Miss Yang praised her."

"We have such a relationship, why do you still call me Miss Yang!" Yang Qixia smiled, "I am fifteen years old, how about you?"

"fourteen."

"That's it, I have another younger sister." Yang Qixia affectionately took Chu Jinyao's hand and said a lot of affectionate words. Yang Qixia saw Chu Jinmiao standing aside, and asked with a smile, "Where is this younger sister?"

Chu Jinmiao was left in the air for a long time, very embarrassed. She smiled hard and said, "I'm fourteen too."

"Oh, it's such a coincidence!" Yang Qixia covered her mouth in surprise, with a good expression on her face. But Chu Jinyao felt that her expression and tone were too exaggerated.

Yang Qixia asked: "You two are sisters in the same house, so you were born in the same year? It's such a coincidence!"

They all said they were sisters from the same house, wouldn't it be normal to be the same age? Chu Jinyao had to laugh with Yang Qixia: "It's a coincidence."

Sure enough, the county owner brought up this topic: "The two of them are not only the same age, but their birthdays are also very close. When they were born, they happened to encounter the rebellion, and they were accidentally replaced. Chu Jinmiao hugged him back to the Changxing Hou Mansion, Chu Jin Yao was left outside and didn't find it until last year."

This is the strangest thing the county owner has ever encountered. She can't wait to say it once everybody, but the two parties, Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinmiao, coincided with each other, and their expressions were a little subtle. Yang Qixia sighed in surprise. She gently covered her mouth with her hand, looked back and forth at Chu Jinyao and Chu Jin, and took them affectionately and placed them on the palms of her palms: "It's okay, meeting is fate. , The two of you are so destined, it seems that you are born sisters."

Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinmiao both smiled slightly and didn't talk to each other.

Chu Jinyao sighed secretly, she probably knew what the princess meant.

The old princess said that there would be no class today, but it was not because of the county owner. Because Yang Qixia hasn't come yet, even if the county lord does not intercede, classes will not start today.

After the princess and a few girls introduced Yang Qixia, they gave the place to the little girls, and she went outside first. Now, sitting in the warm pavilion are Chu Jinyao, Chu Jinmiao, the county head Lin Baozhu, Chu Zhu's eldest daughter Lin Baoying, prostitute Lin Baohuan, and the niece of the county concubine Yang Qixia.

I am afraid that these are the same people who will go to the school in the future.

The county owner was bored and had to drag everyone outside to play. When Chu Jinyao first arrived and refused to speak easily, Yang Qixia helped the maid to persuade her: "Baozhu, the weather hasn't turned around yet, and the ground is frozen. What can be fun to go out? It's better to talk to the elders here? ."

The county owner still looked unwilling, and Yang Qixia continued to persuade patiently and meticulously. Chu Jinyao quietly asked Lin Baohuan: "Sister Yang seems to be very familiar with the county owner?"

"Yes, she is the princess's niece in the family, and she often comes to stay in the palace. Even the grandmother and cousin Yang are very familiar with each other."

Chu Jinyao knew it, and it made sense. The Royal Mansion of Huailing County gave the county lord a playmate from his relatives. Since he found the second daughter-in-law Chuzhu's family, it didn't make sense to miss the princess's Yang family. Although I don't know why the two good companions have become three, it doesn't matter how many people are left, isn't it just a matter of the old princess.

The county owner was very disappointed by Yang Qixia's persuasion. She said, "Well, then don't go outside. Grandma is too boring here, and it's uncomfortable to sit here, so it's better to go to my house and let's play backgammon."

Yang Qixia still didn't want to leave, but other people thought the proposal was good, and Yang Qixia had to swallow everything in her stomach. After everyone agreed on a good idea, they got up one after another, calling for their own servants. For a time, the people in the warm pavilion were wearing cloaks and stuffed with the stove, so they were busy.

The county owner was unable to sit still. He just fastened the belt and ran out as soon as the smoke slipped. The remaining maid hurriedly chased out. Chu Jinyao smoothed the folds on his cloak and followed closely. Yang Qixia went out last, Lan Ze saw Yang Qixia and smiled: "Miss Xia, why are you going out too?"

There are two powerful people around the old princess, one Lan Ze and Xia Bo, especially Lan Ze is the most talkative, and the old princess likes it very much. Although Lan Ze is a maid, he does all the delicate work of serving the old princess. The most common thing he does is serving tea, pouring water, making fun with the old lady, and cleaning and scrubbing. So in detail, Lan Ze's food and clothing cost is not worse than that of the young lady, and the two hands are white and thin. If it is a small family girl, it may not be as good as Lan Ze.

Because Lan Ze had a face in front of the old princess, everyone inside and outside the palace had to stop and say a few words politely when they saw Lan Ze. When Yang Qixia heard Lan Ze's question, she stopped and replied with a smile: "The county owner is clamoring about going back to play backgammon, I don't worry about it."

Lan Ze smiled and blinked playfully: "Ms. Xia has done her best to the county lord, and she is not worse than her biological sister! Even the ordinary sister-in-law is less than half of Miss Xia's heart to sister-in-law."

Yang Qixia pursed her mouth and smiled: "Lan Ze is the powerful person next to the old princess. In the future, I don't know who is blessed to marry you, a good helper."

"Ms. Xia is just a shame to me. I'm just a slave, who is born to take care of people. How can I be self-sufficient." Lan Ze smiled, "Only a decent person like Ms. Xia can be called a decent person. A word of good help!"

Yang Qixia smiled: "You are burying me again. Forget it, I won't tell you too much, the county lord probably has gone far, I have to go out and chase her quickly."

Lan Ze personally draped Yang Qixia and sent her outside. When parting, Yang Qixia made another push, and the two of you came and went for a long time.

On the other side, Chu Jinyao found that Yang Qixia hadn't followed up, and said, "Wait a minute, Sister Yang hasn't caught up yet."

The county owner and others had to stand in place and wait. The county lord and other rogues came over and asked Chu Jinyao: "I heard that you seemed to have left something in the palace last time. Did you find it later?"

When other people heard the words of the county lord, they looked in Chu Jinyao's direction. Chu Jinyao took advantage of this opportunity and deliberately said: "I found it. I said it was abrupt. I left my things at home. The palace just remembered, and thought it was in the palace. I've been troubled by everyone for so long, and I'm really sorry."

Chu Jinyao's pocket is related to her fame, and she dared not take any risks. She made the purse so good for her to live and never use it again, but in order to avoid future troubles, Chu Jinyao still made up a new set of rhetoric, only saying that she left it at home and said it in front of everyone. Use this thing to make a fuss.

The county owner nodded, obviously not paying attention, but Chu Jinmiao's lips overflowed with a sneer.

However, Chu Jinmiao herself was very afraid of mentioning that day, so even if she knew that Chu Jinyao was lying, she couldn't jump out to reveal it. I'm afraid Chu Jinyao is right about this.

After Chu Jinyao explained the purse in a few words, he skipped the topic and led the county lord to talk about new things. As she talked, she suddenly felt chills.

No, Chu Jinmiao and the three girls said that that day, they met a young man at the gate of the dressing yard, and felt that the other party was strange, so they stopped the other party from entanglement. Since Chu Jinmiao said this, then this little servant was not the one arranged by Chu Jinmiao. Six girls were just taking advantage of the fisherman's profit, and did not interfere with Chu Jinmiao's plan, so this little servant was not the sixth girl's person either.

Inexplicably, he appeared at the gate of the yard where the female family members changed their clothes. It was still a yard with obvious problems. It can be said that this little servant was not passing by by chance as a errand. If it's not Chu Jinmiao or Six Girls, then this matter is a bit serious. Whose is this young man?

"Chu Jinyao, what are you thinking?"

Chu Jinyao was called back to her thoughts by the voice of the county lord, she smiled hard, and said, "I'm fine, I just thought about things."

"Standing can still be distracted." The county lord pouted, "Okay, Cousin Xia has already followed, let's go."

When they arrived at the county owner's house, a few of them were playing chess lively, but Chu Jinyao was always a little bit unconscious.

She seems to have missed someone, and she is still a hidden person behind the scenes. The Six Girls are in the design, thinking that they will retreat all over, but in fact, there are other people who really retreat all over.

The praying mantis catches the cicada, but the oriole is more than one oriole.

That day, the people behind the scenes arranged the young man in the yard, and saw that no one hurried out, so what did they want to do?

Chu Jinyao shuddered even after thinking about it.

The county owner lost another game of chess, and was so embarrassed that he pushed the chess piece down, and said in anger: "It's boring, don't play anymore."

Others hurriedly gathered around and said good things, but this time the county owner was not so easy to be coaxed. She saw Chu Jinyao sitting alone at the window, so she ran over to sit down and sat diagonally across from Chu Jinyao. Said: "What are you doing here alone?"

"I don't know how to play backgammon. It's not easy to lose in the past, so I just watch the game here." Chu Jinyao tried to make herself laugh without flaws, said.

"It's so boring, if you can't, I'll teach you!"

Chu Jinyao hurriedly declined. Even if she didn't understand, she could see that the county lord was very bad. Chu Jinyao didn't dare to let the county bishop her.

The county lord sat on the cave, shaking his legs and said: "It's February now! Just a few days later, it's time to prepare for my grandmother's 60th birthday. Then it will be really lively!"

Chu Jinyao also heard about the 60th birthday of the old princess. This can be regarded as a major event in Taiyuan as a whole, and even more so in Shanxi as a whole. Chu Jinyao can imagine that scene, there must be a gathering of guests and celebrities.

But... before the class started today, the county lord was already thinking about the old princess's birthday. Are they really coming to accompany the county lord to study?

Chu Jinyao’s worries were correct. Within a few days of the prince’s boudoir school, the entire Huailing County prince’s palace was in the midst of preparing for its birthday. The servants were all in a hurry, and the palace’s people came and went, making it extremely noisy. At that time, how could you ask the county owner to study hard for you?

Because the old princess's birthday was an extremely important event, the entire palace was busy with this matter within a month, and the house was heavily built and built and built sheds. It was not until April that the movement in the garden subsided a little.

At this time, the jacaranda behind Chu Jinyao's house had already bloomed with blue-purple flowers like clear dreams, and the lotus pond had already thawed, and soft spring waves appeared. At the same time, it is very close to the 60th birthday of the old princess.

On the fifth day of April, all the guest rooms in the Royal Mansion of Huailing County were fully occupied, and there were people coming and going every day, so it was so lively. The old princess is also very refreshed in happy events, and she can see many people every day, and her mouth can't close her smile. Today is three days before the official birthday, but the guests have already arrived. Those who live too far or can't get out of their bodies will all ask people to send birthday gifts, and other guests who are close also send people to walk around in advance. .

The old princess and the county princess are very happy to be able to come to so many people. The old princess is in charge. Today, the old princess prepares ten noodles to entertain the guests from afar, and they can also be lively and lively in advance. The ladies and wives naturally clapped their hands and applauded. The kitchen for the birthday banquet had already been prepared, and the princess concubine gave an order, and the kitchen made up ten tables of noodles overnight.

The female relatives all gathered here for the old princess to lively, drinking and talking and laughing, so it was so noisy. Chu Jinyao and these little girls were not neglected. They sat in the attic with other ladies and made up three more tables.

When there are too many people, the county owner is ready to make trouble. She gave an idea from the table: "What a rogue sitting here, let's go boating in the lake, anyway, for a while, they can't finish here."

Chu Jinyao was secretly speechless, so courageous! Yang Qixia, who regarded herself as a good sister, immediately advised: "No, it's dangerous to go to the lake. We might as well just sit here, listen to the elders, and learn more about how to deal with things. This is what Zhenjing women should do."

The county lord immediately put on a stinky face and came out: "You love to preach. Since you like to listen to them talking and laughing after drinking, you can keep it for yourself." The county lord stood up and wanted to go out regardless: "Get out of the way, I If you want to go boating, do you like to go."

The movement here quickly spread to the princess of the county, the princess of the county was very troubled: "You look at her, don't expose her to the sun! Also, there are a few more women who are familiar with water in the bow, and each ship is equipped with a helm. Good players, don't let them make any mistakes."

The people promised one by one, and the county owner walked to the garden and went boating in the lake as he wished. The boat in the lake was dragged out just now, and there were a lot of water weeds underneath it, and it couldn’t be opened for a while. The county owner felt bored and pouted, "I think it’s so troublesome to row a boat? It’s not possible, that’s not allowed. Now, I didn't even prepare the boat for me!"

Chu Jinyao deeply felt that the county owner was making troubles unreasonably. The boat was useless in the winter. How could he dare to go into the water without cleaning it up? Yang Qixia was persuading again, saying that it was nothing more than what a woman should be, and the county owner was very tired of hearing it. Chu Jinyao gently pulled the sleeve of the county lord, pointed to a small building by the lake, and said, "Lord, look at that small building over there. Since you are waiting to be impatient, you might as well sit in the attic. Yes, I can blow the air and have a look at the garden."

When the county owner heard this, he happily agreed, and took Chu Jinyao and ran to the attic. Yang Qixia chased after her, she called and thought to herself, asking the county lord to sit in the attic. Why didn't she think of this idea? Chu Jinyao took the lead this time, and she must pull it back next time!

Chu Jinyao and the county owner went upstairs, and the county owner immediately cheered and ran to the window. The maid chased after her and shouted: "Lord of the county, run slowly and be careful of slippery feet!"

Linglong also reminded Chu Jinyao in a low voice: "Girl, be careful of your steps. After all, this is a two-story building. It's always right to be careful."

Chu Jinyao nodded lightly, motioning to understand. Although it is not high above the ground, it is a two-story attic after all. If it is abruptly pushed from behind, it will be enough.

Chu Jinyao kept standing not far away from the window because he remembered this in his heart. The county owner leaned on the fence in disregard and pointed to the outside.

The little girls who came as guests gathered around the county owner, carefully to please the county owner. Suddenly there was heavy footsteps outside the building, and a woman-like person ran up panting. Before she could stand firm, she asked loudly, "Is the county lord here?"

Standing outside, Chu Jinyao heard the question, and quickly responded, "Yes. Mother, why are you looking for the county lord?"

When the county owner heard someone calling her, he curled his lips unhappily: "What else can you do? I must be told to go back."

"Oh my little ancestor!" The woman slapped her thigh and called out loudly, "Go back! The ancestor and the princess have just received a letter from the prince, saying that the prince is coming to the palace, and they are now on their way. Up!"

"Prince?"

Everyone was taken aback, and some women even stood up in shock. Even the county owner didn't dare to be careless. She hurriedly retracted her body and ran to her mother-in-law. She even squeezed her skirt, "Are you serious? Is that the prince?"

"Oh, the county lord, who else can the crown prince be? This lord does not know what happened, and suddenly rises up and wants to come to the palace to give the ancestor a birthday gift. The county lord and the prince have just received the news. County lord, you Quickly go back with the old slave, and now I wrinkle my face and put on makeup and change clothes, just in time to catch up with the prince and enter the mansion."

The county owner was really a little flustered. She stayed on the spot for a moment at a loss before waking up from a dream, and she quickly responded.

Not to mention the county owner, even other people are also impetuous. His Royal Highness is coming, this kind of important thing, who still wants to travel the lake? The female relatives are all a little thoughtless, and their eyes are erratic, but undoubtedly, everyone does not want to stay here anymore, and everyone wants to go back and clean up quickly.

Linglong quietly pulled Chu Jinyao's sleeves: "Girl, let's go back too, you put on that fancy dress and a new bun."

After hearing this, Chu Jinyao wanted to tell Linglong that there was a huge gap between them and the prince, and that there was no way for them to show their faces on this occasion. Changing clothes and dressing was just a waste of time. However, Chu Jinyao swept around and found that many people were all about to move like Linglong, almost unable to bear to leave first.

Chu Jinmiao was especially noticeable. She looked at the stairs frequently, wringing her handkerchief with her fingers.

They were noisy in the attic and had no idea. A group of people was surrounded by entourage and gradually came from a distance. Because the county chief went back to change clothes, the other girls didn't bother to leave to enjoy the lotus, the maid of the palace had already started to clean up the attic. A maid in a yellow coat leaned her arm to close the window. Chu Jinyao watched her sway, and the fork in her hand trembled even more. She couldn't help but step forward and say, "You leaned your body so out, be careful. Fall down."

The maid was still a little displeased when she heard: "I'm holding the fence."

"It's just that you hold the fence and nothing will happen, but what about the people outside? What if you throw something downstairs without holding it firmly, and hitting a passerby?"

Before she could speak, the maid's hand slipped, and Chu Jinyao bluffed and hurriedly picked up the fork in her hand. Chu Jinyao held on to the bracket and turned around and said to this maid: "Look, she almost fell off just now. If someone happened to pass by, would it be smashed?"

However, the maid's eyes suddenly widened, covering her mouth with one hand and pointing forward with the other unbelievably. Chu Jinyao was curious and turned around unsuspectingly.

"The son?"

Chu Jinyao was wondering, why did Lin Xiyuan come here? Immediately after, she realized that it was wrong. Lin Xiyuan was the eldest son of the prefectural mansion. The man next to him was forty years old and majestic. He should be his father, the King of Huailing. The prince of Huailing County has a lofty status in Shanxi. Even if he faces the prefect, he will not stand by. What kind of identity will the person who can keep Lin Xiyuan and the prince accompany him?

The passer-by also heard their chirping here, and the King of Huailing County raised his head, his eyes full of oppression, and the people behind the King waved their hands vigorously and slightly. Before Chu Jinyao understood this, the people in the team realized something was wrong. The person walking in the middle raised his head when he heard the sound, and slowly looked up the small building. The April sun poured down, and he was wearing an indigo-colored slim-sleeved long body, with a long body and exquisite eyes.

Chu Jinyao caught the opponent's sight unexpectedly, she was shocked suddenly, and the strength in her hand was unconsciously loosened.

Qin Yi raised his eyebrows and immediately stepped back half a step. The wooden frame slammed in front of Qin Yi's clothes, and a piece of dust was lifted.

The face of the Huailing County King was completely invisible. The father-in-law next to Qin Yi was taken aback, and he was too busy to step forward, shouting in a sharp voice: "Bold!"

The accompanying officials were also shocked and angry: "You dare to smash your Royal Highness!"

Chu Jinyao has completely lost her language function: "I...he...this..."

The popularity of the Royal Mansion of Huailing County glared at Chu Jinyao a few times, and then he hurriedly gathered around Qin Yi to say something nice: "His Royal Highness, this is the companion of our county lord of the Royal Mansion. She doesn't know the Prince. I will miss your hand and offend your Highness."

"Yes, don't blame the prince..."

But Qin Yi glanced upstairs with a smile. I haven't seen him for a few months, so I am really bold. I have seen him, and even dared to throw things at him.

Qin Yi actually saw Chu Jinyao from afar. She stood in the attic, talking to the maid sideways, behind the precarious fence. Immediately afterwards, she turned her head, gave him a very blank look, and then suddenly threw the thing in her hand.

That moment was really unexpected, but Qin Yi faintly felt that it was unexpected.

The people around were still chattering and pleading, for fear that Qin Yi would anger the prefectural palace. However, in fact, how could Qin Yi be angry with Chu Jinyao, Qin Yi said calmly: "It's nothing but a hand error."

The father-in-law next to Qin Yi was originally very angry, but when he heard the master's words, he seemed to be blocked by anger, and he couldn't get up and down suddenly. Even the King of Huailing County was surprised. He tentatively asked, "His Royal Highness, do you really care about it?"

Qin Yi Liangliang glanced at the King of Huailing County, and took the lead on his way.

The father-in-law was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed in small steps. He felt puzzled as he ran. When did their prince become so good-tempered?

The King of Huailing County also hurried forward and followed Qin Yi forward. After walking through the attic, the Huailing County King turned his head and warned them these girls with his eyes fiercely.

The girls in the attic also heard when the prince, the princess, and others passed by. They didn't have the courage to come out, so they lay on the wooden wall and watched. Now that the people are gone, they ran out quickly, touched Chu Jinyao, and asked, "Is that the prince really?"

But the look on Chu Jinyao's face was dazed, and there was no response to other people's questions. Being so close, she was pretty sure that that was Zize. Perhaps it was exactly the same as Qi Ze's appearance.

And this person, they call him the prince?

Prince?

It was as if a thunderbolt hit Chu Jinyao's Tianling Cave, making her feel bewildered. Seeing that Chu Jinyao ignored him, the other girls couldn't help but asked again: "What do you think? Did you really almost hit the prince just now?"

Chu Jinyao finally recovered and smiled hardly: "It should be... yes."

"Ah!" The girls all covered their mouths and exclaimed, "Why are you so reckless? How can you run into your Royal Highness?"

Even though they said that, they are actually thinking, why aren't the people out there just now?

The county owner murmured at Chu Jinyao dissatisfiedly. She craned her neck and looked back, and hurriedly pulled on the clothes of the maid: "What should I do, His Royal Highness is already going far, and I haven't had time to change clothes."

Chu Jinmiao also grabbed the corners of his clothes nervously, pinching the skirt of his clothes crumpled. She really didn't expect that the prince of the dynasty was so young, so... beautiful. There were so many people in the company, all of whom were high-ranking officials and nobles, but standing beside the prince, they were stunned as a background, as if everyone else except the prince lost their color and turned into a pale-white foil.

The county owner hurriedly went back to change bright clothes, and the other ladies also looked for their own ways and tried to tidy up their appearances. Only Chu Jinyao walked in the end in a spirited manner. She leaned on the wall and walked slowly on the stairs of the attic, thinking in her heart that the mysterious person she saw in the Prince's Mansion in the twelfth lunar month was indeed him! Unexpectedly, this person turned out to be the current prince.

Even if I want to come, the prince appeared in the prefectural palace without realizing it at first, and now he comes to participate in the 60th birthday of the old concubine, and it can be completely figured out. However, Chu Jinyao didn't care about what the prince wanted to do. She was just wondering, why would Qi Ze look exactly like the prince?
