The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

The princess of the county didn't know what to say to Mrs. Chu, so she drove all the juniors out. The girls all went to Baosha to sit down. The county owner was free and just sat down, he pulled Chu Jinyao and said: "You are all home now, why don't you write to me? I live alone at home, it's really boring. Extremely."

Lin Baoying next to him listened and smiled: "What the third sister said, we are not humans?"

Lin Baozhu said, "Isn't it? The third sister only sees sister Yang and two cousins. We are very uncountable among our relatives and sisters."

The county host has no taboos, but Chu Jinyao can't help it. She smiled: "The county host hurried, but the two cousins ​​caught the conversation. We are guests. We were harassed in the palace for a few days, and we became clean. After that, no one will feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, it is the two cousins, you and the county owner are sisters of the relatives, just like the left hand and the right hand, the access is the same, of course, it will not feel empty."

Lin Baoying smiled and said, "The fifth cousin just can talk. No wonder my grandmother always talks about you."

"The cousin is absurd, the ancestors don't want me to make trouble." Chu Jinyao smiled politely.

"Why?" Lin Baoying blinked and winked at Chu Jinyao, "The ancestors don't think you are making trouble, maybe, the ancestors still think of you, and want you to continue to return to the palace!"

Lin Baoying might have heard something about it, and then he made fun of it. However, as soon as these words came out, Chu Jinyao was slightly embarrassed, and the expressions of the other girls changed.

Yang Qixia's expression was particularly stiff. She was the niece of the princess princess. She grew up listening to the deeds of her elder cousin. She wanted to marry her cousin ever since she was a child. Even princess auntie also had the same meaning. Everything was fine, but Chu Jinyao suddenly appeared. How could Yang Qixia be willing?

She and her eldest cousin were childhood sweethearts, and the two adults also had an early consensus. She clearly appeared in front of Chu Jinyao, so why was she preempted by this unjustified Miss Houfu? After all, Chu Jinyao is just a fake daughter of a farmer's head. What qualifications does she have to compare with her Yang family's prostitute?

Because of the princess of the county, Yang Qixia often came to live in the palace of Huailing County. She often regarded herself as the first concubine, so she bothered to build a good relationship with the servants of the palace. Lan Ze in the old concubine's house also had a secret love for her son, and the old concubine also promised privately that she would give Lan Ze to her son to open her face in the future. She didn't dare to say that she was a concubine, but it was always okay to be an aunt. After Yang Qixia knew, she was always polite to Lan Ze. Lan Ze understood what Yang Qixia meant and respected Yang Qixia as her mistress.

They both thought very well. They only waited for the princess to marry Yang Qixia and then Yang Qixia took the lead and carried Lan Ze into her aunt. The two of them have this friendship, and they will only be filial to their wives and concubines, and they will be as affectionate as sisters. Therefore, Yang Qixia and Lan Ze had a tacit understanding, Yang Qixia gave Lan Ze a face, and Lan Ze waited in front of the old princess to inform Yang Qixia, secretly mentioning something.

However, when the Tatar battle report came, Lan Ze caught off guard and heard from the old princess that she intended to leave Chu Jinyao to be married to her elder son, and Lan Ze seemed to be drunk. Lan Ze immediately notified Yang Qixia, and after Yang Qixia heard it, she felt that the sky was falling apart.

Yang Qixia thought wryly, in fact, the princess has always liked her! But whoever makes the old princess have a high level of seniority and the right to speak, even if the princess is not happy, she still has to listen to the old princess's arrangements. Today, I came to visit Changxing Hou's Mansion, and I first tried to test my tone. After the elders of the Chu family revealed their approval, they could ask the guarantor to come.

Yang Qixia thought, her fist gradually clenched tightly. The county lord called twice, and when Yang Qixia was silent, she asked curiously: "Sister Yang, what's the matter with you?"

Yang Qixia regained her senses, she raised her hand and stroked her hair, covering up: "I just didn't hear it. What did the county lord say?"

"I called you several times, but you didn't agree." The county lord grumbled, "We just said, wait a few days for a banquet, and we will have a lot of fun."

Chu Jinyao heard this and asked, "The county lord, you don't have to go to boudoir for class?"

"No need." The county lord waved his hand and said, "His Royal Highness has already left. My mother said that I have worked hard these days. Let me rest for a few days. When things are settled in the future, I will find my mother to teach."

Chu Jinyao understood immediately that the prince had already left, and no one looked at the county owner to study and study. The princess concubine took the charge and cancelled the county owner's courses. When the county lord is held tight next time, it is probably the princess's will, and ask the nanny from the palace to teach the county lord’s court rules.

Chu Jinyao was in a daze when she heard these words, the prince actually left so quickly? She has not yet thanked the prince, and there are some things she wants to ask the prince in person.

For example, she has never taken out a jade pendant in front of others. How does His Royal Highness know what her jade pendant looks like? Also, why does the prince seem to be familiar with her, and even more so, carelessly care about her?

Of course, she may also be affectionate. But the Yupei incident is really strange.

On the other day, the prince said that his mother is Empress Wenxiao and that his mother's surname is Qi. What does this mean?

These questions were about to suffocate her, Chu Jinyao still thought about going to the Huailing County Palace next time to inquire in person, but unexpectedly, the prince had already left.

Chu Jinyao couldn't help asking: "Why did the prince leave so quickly?"

The county lord shrugged, shook his head and said: "I don't know. After saying that I will live for more than a month, but I don't know what's wrong, the prince suddenly asked to leave. We didn't even have any preparations."

What the prince said was nothing. No one dared to say no. Even if he speculated in private, he couldn't figure out what the grandfather was thinking. Chu Jinyao thought for a while, but shook her head helplessly: "I can't guess, maybe, there is something important on the front line waiting for your Royal Highness."

Speaking of the prince's matter, several other girls were also interested and discussed in twitter: "It is really strange to say that the prince came to Taiyuan unconsciously, and only stayed for a few days, and then left. I heard that the prince came to Taiyuan unconsciously. The prefect deliberately hosted a banquet for the prince, but before everyone was ready, the majesty did not say anything, so he went back."

The three girls also felt the same way: "I heard my father say a few days ago that I plan to wait a few days for your Highness to stay in Taiyuan after the reception of the Prince's Mansion is gone. The other adults also think the same way, and they all think, Your Highness It was so easy to withdraw from the border, and I could stay for a year and a half this time. This is the first time that the Prince has been in the city since the Prince was down in Shanxi!"

"Yes, no one thought that His Highness would leave in such a hurry."

The princes in Taiyuan thought that the birthday of the old birthday star in the county mansion had not long passed. The adults gave the county mansion a face and did not invite the prince out rashly. Anyway, the prince will definitely settle down in another home in the future. They give face to each other and do not rashly. What a shame. However, he did not expect that he could not wait for the next step.

Lin Baohuan was proud of this: "His Royal Highness is here to give grandmother her birthday. After the birthday banquet is over, Your Highness will naturally leave."

The girls of the Chu family laughed and joined in: "The cousin is right. No one in the city is more decent than the prefectural palace. Even the prince gives the prefectural palace face."

Although the three Lin family girls here did not answer the conversation, they all showed a look of approval. The three girls were sincerely flattering, and smiled and asked: "I didn’t have the blessings, and before I had the opportunity to meet the Prince Tianyan, His Royal Highness left. How do you look like the county lord and two cousins, not only met the prince, but also often had peace with him. Your Highness, please. The county lord and two cousins ​​pity and pity us, tell us, how do the prince and the nobles in the palace talk about walking?"

Lin Baohuan smiled and said, "What else can they do? They are like us, with two eyes and two legs, what else can they say?"

Six girls pursed her mouth and smiled: "Cousin don't greedy us, let's talk to us. Speaking of which, I haven't seen anyone in the palace yet."

Lin Baohuan was so happy that he was touted, and then he continued: "Actually, I haven't seen your Highness much, but I've only asked your Highness a few times for peace."

Several girls in the Hou Mansion showed envious expressions, and hurriedly urged: "You even greeted the prince in person. It's really enviable. Tell me, what is the prince?"

Lin Baohuan said shyly: "Where do I know this? However, the prince is really young, majestic and majestic. He is the best-looking person I have ever seen."

"Really?" The Chu family didn't believe it very much. They grew up in the Hou Mansion. I don't know how many brothers and cousins ​​have met, and many of them are particularly well-dressed. Listening to Lin Baohuan's words, many people are skeptical.

Lin Baohuan said, "Really! If you don't believe me, ask the fourth cousin and the fifth cousin, they have also met."

The topic caught Chu Jinyao off guard. She didn't want to participate in this. What is it called to discuss men's appearance? But in front of everyone's gaze, Chu Jinyao couldn't deny it without conscience, so she nodded invisibly, "Indeed. His Royal Highness is really young and promising."

Chu Jinyao's words were not against his intentions. Although she felt that Qi Ze was the best man she had ever met, the crown prince and Qi Ze were the same in appearance, and these words were not considered false. When Chu Jinyao said this, the other girls made a sensation, and they exclaimed for a long time: "Why did the prince leave so soon? We haven't seen it."

Lin Baoying looked at the county lord, and said pointedly: "What is the difficulty? You have a good relationship with the third sister. There will be opportunities in the future."

The few people who didn't go to the prefectural palace were puzzled, but Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinmiao understood. The county owner was flushed with red and stretched out his hand to hit Lin Baoying: "What are you talking about! I'm ignoring you."

Lin Baoying hurriedly begged for mercy, and did a little to make the county host happy. Although the county owner said that she was angry, her eyes were bright.

Chu Jinyao smiled faintly. For some reason, she felt a little lonely. It turned out that the matter of the county owner and the prince was about to be done. She had originally thought about asking the prince separately, not to mention that the prince has left, even if the prince is still there, it is inconvenient for her to do so. It seems that her question will definitely not be answered.

Chu Jinmiao watched these people talking and laughing coldly. She didn't like the appearance of these people from the Chu family, but she was proud to sit in the same room with the prince. After seeing Canghai, he could no longer settle for the small pond. Chu Jinmiao met the prince as he wished, and saw the manners of the people in the palace. Instead, he wanted to leap over the dragon gate more and more, and took advantage of his strength to fly into the sky. When she was carried into the East Palace, what were the people of the Chu family who made trouble for her? She wanted these people to kneel on the ground and beg her for forgiveness.

So when Chu Jinmiao heard Lin Baoying talking about the county owner, his ears moved. Chu Jinmiao's mental activity started, and now she was suppressed by Mrs. Chu, and it was difficult for her to climb the crown prince on her own. But the county owner is different. She has the whole family to pave the way, and it is very likely that she will win a place next to the prince. If Chu Jinmiao got on the boat of the county lord and accompanies the county lord to marry into the East Palace, wouldn't it be effortless to come here?

Chu Jinmiao pondered the county lord, and Yang Qixia worried about the princess concubine chatting with Mrs. Chu in the room, and the whole dinner was also restless. The ladies have limited knowledge of outside affairs. After they talk for a long time, there is nothing to talk about. This is because the prince was involved, otherwise, they would not care about it. After the girls had a lot of fun, they lost interest in the topic, so they sat in twos and threes, sewing and sewing, while talking about clothes and jewelry.

Seeing that no one was paying attention here, the county owner secretly pulled Chu Jinyao's sleeve, and said to Chu Jinyao: "Come here with your ears."

Chu Jinyao turned around in cooperation, and the county owner and Chu Jinyao said: "You know what, my mother has the heart to let me marry the prince, maybe I can be the prince!"

Chu Jinyao had noticed this incident a long time ago, but now, as she pretended to have only learned about it, she complied with the feelings of the county lord and said, "This happened? Congratulations, the prince gave the county mansion a decent way. I want to come. It can be done."

The county owner was full of complacency: "Yes, my mother deliberately calculated it for me, saying that I am a rich man in this life, and I am born to be blessed. You follow me well, and when I become a princess, I will definitely reward myself. you."

This is really unpleasant to say, Chu Jinyao was unhappy, did not speak up, but said: "Thank the county lord, my blessings are limited, so I don't have to bother the county lord."

The county owner ignored what Chu Jinyao said, and she was now full of joy of being a princess. She looked at Chu Jinyao, Yun Temple and Fengchai, with picturesque eyebrows. They were indeed the appearance of Deputy IKEA Yishi. The county owner remembered what the old princess had said when she was teaching her, the old princess said: "Look at the five girls from the Chu family. She looks good and has a good temperament. She suffered so many crimes when she was a child, and was not arrogant or impetuous when she was found. It stands to reason that this kind of sudden wealthy person is the easiest to become arrogant, but when you look at her, you are still friendly and smiling, and you are also very easy-going to the people. On the contrary, it is you and your girls. Fight or scold. You will be the one who wants to achieve great things in the future, and learn from Chu Jinyao. This is the style that harem maidens should have."

The old princess used Chu Jinyao to teach the county lord, and the county lord was very upset about this, and even had no good expressions towards Chu Jinyao. But now, the county owner looked at Chu Jinyao, who was beautiful and profound, and suddenly no longer cared in his heart. Anyway, Chu Jinyao is not as good as her life, no matter how beautiful and sensible Chu Jinyao is, she will be just an ordinary official wife in this life. And she, who is to be the prince princess, is now the prince princess, and in the future, she will become the mother of a country.

Just as Phoenix wouldn't mind Skylark, the county owner no longer minded Chu Jinyao. She took Chu Jinyao and talked for a long time, and everything she said was nothing but an imagination about the future.

In the inner room, Mrs. Chu and the Zhao clan were sitting with the princess concubine. When Mrs. Chu saw the princess princess talking, she refused to talk about the key, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

And the princess of the county is also at war with nature. She actually doesn't like Chu Jinyao very much. She prefers her niece to be a daughter-in-law. But the mother-in-law ordered, and the Huailing County King agreed, and the Princess was very embarrassed.

The princess princess talked around for a long time, and every time Mrs. Chu talked about marriage, the princess punished haha ​​and jumped away. After several times, Mrs. Chu was a little annoyed. What does the princess princess mean? Hasn't it already been said? Now as long as the princess of the county pierces this layer of window paper and proposes to like Chu Jinyao, and then Mrs. Chu responds with a few words, this will be done. Then the Prince's Mansion can pick a good day and invite the matchmaker to come and propose marriage. But now, the attitude of the princess concubine is neither refusing nor taking the initiative. Mrs. Chu is very strange.

Chu Jinmiao sat in the Baosha for a while. She looked out to see the sky, stood up and said, "I'm going out to change clothes. The county owner and two cousins ​​can sit down."

The female relatives are used to calling convenience as changing clothes. The county owner nodded his head indifferently. Seeing that no one was paying attention, Chu Jinmiao went out first.

After leaving Rongning Hall, she glanced back and hurriedly walked towards the corner door.

Sitting in the West Point Gate were two women who were chatting about melon seeds. Chu Jinmiao took a look at the foot of the house, then turned around and asked his wife Liu, "Take these five pieces of money, and spread the two women. You should understand the rest. Right?"

Mother Liu said: "The old slave understands." Then she took the broken silver from Chu Jinmiao's hand and walked towards the corner door with her waist.

After arriving at the door, Mother Liu deliberately coughed twice. The two janitors saw Mother Liu and quickly stood up and said, "Yo, where did the gust blow you? Mother Liu, how are your wife and four girls today?"

Mother Liu said, "Naturally it is good." She approached, put the broken piece of silver in the woman's hand, and said, "I'll pick a flower for the girl. These are for you to eat."

After starting, the woman took a pile of silver, and said with a smile: "How do you get things from the four girls?"

"The girl rewards you for wine, take it."

The smiling eyes of the two women were invisible, and when they put away the money, they were a little untenable at the moment. A woman asked: "Mrs. Liu, are you here?"

"Oh, I'm here to buy the girl's first flowers. The girl's first flowers have been worn. The girl doesn't want to bother people to go to the jewelry store to buy them. Fortunately, the shopkeepers who often walk our street also buy first flowers. Although simple, they are better In Novelty, just use it."

"Hey, if you buy something with that hawker from the Huo family, you have to wait a while. He doesn't usually come here at this time."

"It's okay. I'll just stand here and wait. If you go to have a drink, go first. I'm going to wait here anyway and I can watch it for you for a while."

The two janitors immediately rubbed their hands and laughed: "How embarrassing is this..."

"Go! It's fine."

The mother-in-law was relieved, and the two said as they walked: "It’s been a while since Mother Liu has watched for us. We will come back after eating two cups. He will watch for you, wait for the merchandiser to come, and let him call the merchandiser in. You stand at the second door and pick it slowly."

Grandma Liu responded one by one, and after seeing the two women go away, she immediately ran over to tell Chu Jinmiao: "Girl, everyone has been sent away."

Chu Jinmiao hummed, and said, "According to the plan, let the Su family enter the door with the salesman. You have to take care of the doorman, don't let them stop Su Father."

"understand."

After a while, a small servant outside led the merchandiser to the corner of the second door and asked Mother Liu to pick the flowers. Mother Liu was picking and picking items in the cargo box and deliberately asked Father and Mother Su who was behind the shopkeeper: "This is your brother? Why did you come out to do business together today?"

The salesman also received the money, and did not answer, Su said: "No, we are from Yunzhi Embroidery Village, come to the fifth girl."

"It turned out to be looking for the fifth girl. You can follow me. We can't walk around in our house. I will take you for a ride."

Father Su and Mother Su agreed. They mixed into the second door according to Chu Jinmiao's instructions. At that time, Chu Jinmiao only said that someone would pick them up after the second door, but this section of the road was enough to make Su's father and Su's mother dizzy. The flowers and plants that caught the eye were something they couldn't see or imagine. They seemed to be stepping on the clouds, and the whole person was dizzy.

Mother Liu gave the little servant some money, and only after sending the little servant and the merchandiser away, did she take Su's father and Su's mother into it. After walking for a while, Chu Jinmiao walked out from behind the corner, lowered his voice and threatened: "Remember, no matter what happens for a while, you will only be determined to come to Chu Jinyao. You can never say that you have seen me, understand. ?"

"Understand, understand." Su's father and Su's mother nodded and bowed to Chu Jinmiao, his eyes continued to look at the furnishings of the Hou Mansion. Chu Jinmiao really didn't like their behavior, and after asking them again, he took the maid and left.

The girls were still talking in the holding mansion. Seeing Chu Jinmiao entering the door, the six girls curiously asked, "Fourth sister, why have you been out for so long?"

Chu Jin smiled wonderfully: "I'm a little tired of sitting, so let's go outside to get some breath."

When Chu Jinyao heard this, she couldn't help but glanced at Chu Jinmiao. Chu Jinmiao was not a person who would like to walk outside. Her words were very strange. Chu Jinyao looked at Chu Jinmiao, her eyes condensed suddenly, why did Chu Jinmiao's skirt get dusty? It looked like he was hiding behind the wall, rubbing off the wall. Didn't Chu Jinmiao go to change clothes? How could he rub the dust on the wall?

Chu Jinyao remembered the anomaly in her heart, but didn't publicize it on her face. After a while, there was suddenly noisy outside the courtyard.

"what happened?"

The girls all stood up, and a maid ran out. After a while, she came back and said, "It seems that the voice came from the fifth girl's yard."

Everyone looked at Chu Jinyao, Chu Jinyao shook her head: "I don't know what's wrong."

Madam Gu was also startled. She lifted the curtains and went out without any concern, and cursed in a low voice: "The old lady and the princess are still inside. What are you doing?"

"Mother Gu, we don't know, it seems that someone is looking for the fifth girl."

Madam Gu frowned when she heard this: "Who is the girl who can see you? She dares to spoil her in our house, hurry out!"

The maid outside answered, Chu Jinmiao didn't hear it right, so he hurriedly went out and took the maid Gu and the maid to ask questions. Madam Gu was anxious to herself, but Chu Jinmiao couldn't help but ask questions. After such a delay, the other party's voice approached.

At this time, Mrs. Chu and the princess princess heard them, and the princess princess came out and asked, "What's the matter?"

Madam Gu hurriedly said, "It's nothing, it's just a few of the servants who failed to do things, and they are now howling."

When the princess princess heard that she was too lazy to take care of other people's housework, Yang Qixia walked up to the princess princess and said coldly: "Auntie, I just seemed to hear someone calling the fifth girl, and I don't know what's wrong.

"Oh?" When the princess heard this, she became vigilant and said, "Since she shouted so loudly, there must be something urgent. Let's call them in."

The princess of the county said so, and Madam Gu had no choice but to let people call in the noisy people.

As soon as Su's father and Su's mother were taken to Rongning Hall, they were almost blinded by the decorations here. Su's mother remembered Chu Jinmiao's words and she cried when she saw people. Su's mother couldn't figure out who these people were. She immediately cried out and said, "My poor Yao'er, why can't you think about it!" "

Chu Jinyao's expression immediately changed when she saw the person coming. She faintly glanced at Chu Jinmiao, she now knows where Chu Jinmiao went just now. Chu Jinyao really didn't expect that Chu Jinmiao could contact Su's father and Su's mother.

The county concubine did not expect such a pair of vulgar peasant women to come in. She frowned and said angrily: "Where did they come from?"

Su’s mother rushed to answer: “I’m here to find my adopted daughter Su Yao. Although she’s not my daughter, I have raised her for 13 years. I personally treat her as my own daughter. Yes. She is going astray now. As an adult, I can't bear to watch her go wrong."

The maidservants all took a breath and turned to look at Chu Jinyao. This woman said so obviously, they all understood it naturally, she was talking about Chu Jinyao.

Mrs. Chu also walked out with the help of someone, looking at this scene with an ugly expression on her face. Chu Jinyao calmed down and stood aside with his hands. After making a decision, she wanted to see what Chu Jinmiao was going to do.

Mrs. Chu looked at Chu Jinyao very calm, and slowly her heart calmed down. As long as it was not caused by Chu Jinyao himself, he would not be afraid at all. However, all this happened at this juncture... Old Madam Chu glanced at Chu Jinmiao sadly.

Madam Gu took the look of Mrs. Chu's eyes and asked Mother Su coldly: "Our old lady cherishes old pity and weakness, and doesn't care about your rudeness for the time being. Come on, you rushed to find our Hou Mansion, what are you trying to do?"

Mother Su sat on the ground and cried: "I don't want to disturb the fifth girl anymore, but I really can't stand it anymore. She has a lot of money every month. Her money is not coming from the right way!"
