Xiaochun was startled by Xiaopei's voice and did not dare to say anything. She lowered her head and followed Xiaopei out of the courtyard gate and walked outside. The carriage of Prince Xuan's Mansion stopped in front of the door. Xiaopei glanced at Xiaochun and signaled her
He got on the carriage, then he also got on the carriage and sat down, "Let's go, the prince is still waiting."
"Did the prince say anything?" Xiaochun asked hesitantly.
After meeting the second young lady, maybe she can beg the second young lady to forgive her for the mistakes she made before. The second young lady is soft-hearted and may forgive her and allow her to go back to serve the second young lady. In this way, she can avoid the Guan family and live well.
Maybe find a good family to remarry, have children, and live a stable life.
However, how could she plead to Prince Xuan, the man she had been afraid of from the very beginning, the man who did not even take the second lady seriously and completely ignored the eldest lady's beauty?
Xiaopei glanced at Xiaochun, ignored her question, and did not speak.
In a state of uneasiness, Xiaochun almost took the time to arrive at Prince Xuan's Mansion. The carriage drove directly into the courtyard. This place gave Xiaochun a sense of oppression that made him dare not breathe.
"Xiao Pei, the prince has something to do, and he asked Aunt Chun to be taken to the back garden temporarily." Guard Jin stepped forward and said, his tone was gentler than Xiao Pei's, "You go see Madam, the prince said, go and see
Madam, she went to the study before, he has something he wants you to do."
Xiaopei nodded, pretending that Xiaochun didn't exist, and walked away.
Seeing the sudden appearance of Guard Jin, Xiaochun really wanted to find a place to hide, or disappear immediately in front of Guard Jin. The man in front of her almost became her husband, but she was confused and chose to be Guan Yupeng's concubine.
, and finally ended up with such a result, if she had listened to the second lady's arrangement, why would she be in such a mess today.
"Aunt Chun, please." Guard Jin's voice and attitude were gentler and more polite than Xiaopei's.
Xiaochun's face turned red, and the sound of "Auntie Chun" made her ears feel like needles pricking her ears. She immediately whispered: "You should call me Xiaochun."
Guard Jin did not refute, but smiled and said: "Okay, Miss Xiaochun, please."
There was no one in the back garden. Guard Jin led Xiaochun to a quiet small pavilion. Although the pavilion was open, a very powerful stove was lit. The wood inside was burning red, and the stove also glowed faintly.
There was a red light, so even though the surroundings were extremely cold at this time and Xiaochun was not wearing thick clothes, she still didn't feel cold, and even felt a little warm.
"This is one of Madam's favorite places to stay." Guard Jin said with a smile, as if Xian Zijian had not disappeared at all, but appeared here frequently, which was very natural.
Xiaochun nodded slightly and murmured: "Yes, the second lady is a little afraid of the cold."
Guard Jin said politely: "Your Majesty has something to do and can't leave at the moment. Please ask Miss Xiaochun to wait here for a while. There is tea here. Miss Xiaochun is free to do as she pleases."
Xiaochun felt that her face was very hot, she was ashamed and nervous. Although she was not cold at all, she was still shivering and couldn't control it. She even gritted her teeth to stop it.
After sitting in silence for a while, Guard Jin seemed to find a topic at random and said gently: "Miss Xiaochun, you haven't seen your wife for some time, right?"
Xiaochun nodded immediately, but did not dare to make a sound for fear that his teeth would chatter.
Guard Jin pretended not to notice Xiaochun's embarrassment, and smiled and said: "The prince wants to give his wife a surprise during this time. She has been in poor health and has been recovering during this period. The doctor at the house said that it is best to let her
Madam is in a good mood, which is good for Madam's physical recovery. This time, the prince specially invited Miss Xiaochun here, probably for this reason. I wonder if Miss Xiaochun knows how to make Madam happy? "
Xiaochun let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was because of this. Then he raised his head slightly, blinked his eyes, and said nervously: "The second young lady is a quiet person. If the prince wants her to be happy, it is best to
It is best not to disturb too many people and just find a quiet place. The second lady once told the slave that what she likes to do most is to do what she wants to do in a place where no one knows."
Guard Jin said with a slightly surprised expression: "Isn't the Xian family quiet enough?"
Xiaochun sighed softly. She was no longer as nervous as before, and her tone was more stable than before, "The second young lady is not happy staying at the Xian family. The master and his wife are not very good to the second young lady. The second young lady has always been herself.
She stayed alone or with the old lady. Later, the old lady passed away, and the second young lady spent most of her time with the slaves. The second young lady said that she hoped to leave the Xian family in the future and find a place to stay that she liked. She also and
The slave girl said that the best place would be with mountains and water, far away from the world. She would definitely find the highest place to stay. In that place, except for green trees and red flowers, and the occasional eagle flying over, there would be nothing else. The slave girl was still worried at the time
, How to eat in a place like that? The mountains are really not suitable for growing food. If someone sends it up, someone will find it. The second lady smiled and said at that time, it doesn’t matter, she can prepare a year’s worth of food at a time. Anyway, she
Nor is he a person who only eats chicken, duck and fish."
Guard Jin smiled and said: "Madam, you always like to avoid the hustle and bustle, which is true. By the way, has Madam ever told you where such a place is? Has Madam ever seen anything quiet and liked it?
place?"
Xiaochun shook her head and said softly: "I don't know, I don't know. When the second lady is at the Xian family, she doesn't have much time to go out. When she does go out, it's just to visit the Xian family shop. She rarely has the chance to go out."
Guard Jin nodded and said gently: "Miss Xiaochun, drink tea."
Xiaochun nervously picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Suddenly she remembered something and said softly: "By the way, before the old lady passed away, the second young lady often accompanied the old lady out. At that time, the old lady was sometimes sober and sometimes inactive.
Crazy, as long as she is awake, she likes to let the second lady accompany her to some quiet places to stay. Sometimes it takes two or three days to come back."
"Is anyone here with you?" Guard Jin asked casually, refilling Xiaochun's cup of tea.
Xiaochun shook her head again, "Except for taking the second young lady, the old lady never allows outsiders to follow her. Even the old lady is not allowed to follow. However, every time she goes out, the carriage is pulled by the same horse. The servant also asked the second lady
Miss, what should I do if I get lost? The second lady said, I know the way, so it’s okay.”
"Is the horse still there?" Guard Jin blurted out and asked.
