Seeing the confused look on her face, Xie Songhua felt really uncomfortable, but he still managed to regain his composure and said with a smile, "What are you thinking about? I'm even distracted when I talk to you."
Hearing these words, Xie Li's face heated up, and she quickly said: "I was thinking about my brother-in-law's expedition! Is there any danger in going there?"
"Probably not. There is no movement in Da Rong. Just in case, the prince goes to visit as usual."
She didn't want to talk to Xie Li about Xiao Yu, so she looked at him with bright eyes, but changed the subject and said, "Has the dowry been prepared? What did the Duke say? When you marry Mr. Su, grandma
I should be happy to make your face!"
When it comes to marriage, Xie Li feels a little uncomfortable.
This was originally the family she had longed for, but now that she saw Xie Songhua's life, she felt extremely uneasy. Looking at the Su family again, she felt vulgar and petty.
Even Mr. Su, who used to think he looked pretty good, now looks rough.
But when Xie Songhua asked, she could only answer truthfully.
What else could be done?
The marriage between a concubine and a Jinshi from a merchant's family, no matter how much the Xie family gave her, she would be just like that.
Can it still be compared to Xie Songhua?
Where is the betrothal gift sent by the prince? Not to mention the Xie family's daughter, how many people in the entire capital can compare with it?
This kind of thing really doesn't stand up to much thought. The more I think about it, the less interesting it becomes and the more dissatisfied it becomes.
Seeing her lack of interest, Xie Songhua said no more.
"You came here today, but do you have anything special to do?"
Finally, they stopped talking about marriage. Xie Li breathed a sigh of relief and said enthusiastically: "Grandma said that the prince is going out soon. I am afraid that the third sister will feel uncomfortable, so she asked me to come and see you and talk to you."
Xie Songhua felt relieved and said with a smile: "My grandmother is worried, but please rest assured that everything is fine here. Your Majesty is here for state affairs. I only have pride in my heart. How can I feel uncomfortable?"
There was no way to continue talking today.
After a few polite words, Xie Songhua excused herself to look at the account books and let her walk around as she pleased.
Xie Li was eager and said she wanted to go for a walk in the garden.
In such a cold weather, she was willing to go, so she had no reason to stop her and simply asked Fufeng to take her out for a walk.
Mrs. Huayang sent the four of them over that day, and Xie Li also saw it.
So when she saw Fufeng's face, she looked very unhappy. However, this was arranged by Xie Songhua, so she naturally had nothing to do.
But then I thought about it, now that she was a guest, it didn't matter that Fufeng came from the palace, and was just a maid in the palace.
So she immediately raised her head and glanced at Fufeng with contempt, "Let's go, take me to the palace's garden."
Fufeng suddenly had an errand, and he was a little frightened, so he agreed in a low voice without saying anything.
After walking out of the banquet stage, the smile on Xie Li's face disappeared. She picked Fufeng up and down and sneered: "Aren't you from the palace? Why are you working as a maid now?
Got a job?"
Even though they have thoughts about Xiao Yu and are quite dissatisfied with Xie Songhua, on the surface, the four of them have always been the most submissive.
When she heard Xie Li's clearly rude words, she still had such a gentle expression on her face, "This servant was originally sent by Mrs. Huayang to serve the prince and princess, but the princess is considerate and gives us sisters some dignity.
That’s all.”
"Humph! It's good to know." Xie Li saw Fufeng being humble in front of her, and she felt really beautiful in her heart. There was no need for another maid, she was a maid in the palace!
Thinking that Jiang Shuhua had entered the East Palace now, and her status was just like that, she suddenly felt like she was on an equal footing with Jiang Shuhua.
If you can enter this palace and become the person in front of the prince...
Xie Li couldn't help but swallowed nervously. The prince and Jiang Shu
How could the prince Hua be so different?
Thinking of this, she felt her heart getting hotter.
"What does the prince usually do on weekdays?"
When Fufeng heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he glanced at Xie Li subconsciously.
But seeing her arrogant face but the tips of her ears being slightly red, I understood what she was thinking.
She thought for a moment and then replied softly: "The prince is busy with official duties and rarely enters the inner courtyard on weekdays, so... I don't know."
Hearing this, Xie Li was stunned and immediately slowed down, "You said that the prince doesn't often enter the inner courtyard? The third sister..."
Fufeng's voice became softer and softer, "The servants only serve the princess. I don't know much about the affairs in the outer courtyard, but since I got married last year and one month after the wedding, the prince has not stayed in the main courtyard again."
This news caught Xie Li off guard, "You mean... the prince doesn't like the third sister?"
Didn’t you say that you value Xie Songhua very much?
Xie Li simply stopped and stared at Fufeng in front of him.
But Fufeng lowered his head slightly and said calmly: "This slave doesn't dare to talk nonsense. I just tell the girl what I know."
Xie Li's eyes were a little hot. If the prince doesn't like Xie Songhua, what does that mean?
Then doesn't he have a better chance?
She almost subconsciously wanted to ask Xiao Yu what kind of girl he liked, but she still had some sense left in her mind, so she swallowed her words again.
Fufeng is just a maid, how could she know.
not to mention……
She suddenly snorted coldly, "Don't think that I don't know what you were sent here for, and that you have the prince's idea in mind, right? The prince doesn't even enter my third sister's yard, and you have no chance."
Fufeng's expression remained unchanged, but his tone became more respectful, "I don't dare."
"snort!"
Xie Li ignored her and just thought about how to get to Xiao Yu's side.
After returning to Xie's Mansion, she almost immediately ran to Shou'an Hall.
In any case, if this matter can get the support of the old lady, it will be much easier.
She didn't know how she dared to do so. Maybe it was because the old lady was talking about Xie Yun, or maybe Xie Wenyuan was thinking of making peace...
Seeing her excited look, the old lady couldn't help but frown, "What's wrong with you?"
There were other people around, so Xie Li quickly saluted the old lady, "I just came from the third sister, who asked me to say hello to my grandmother for her!"
Hearing this, the old lady smiled lightly and said, "It's difficult for her to have such intentions."
Xie Tu was a little surprised. Why did Xie Li go to the palace again?
But she didn't say anything, she just smiled and asked about Xie Songhua.
Xie Li exchanged greetings and waited. When everyone was almost gone, she said, "Grandma, my granddaughter has something to say to you."
The old lady turned to look at her, with a look in her eyes that Xie Li couldn't understand.
Such scrutiny made her feel a little panicked, but she still held it back. She had to fight for it.
In the end, the old lady turned away the others and took her to the bedroom.
"Why is it so mysterious that no one else can hear it?"
Xie Li immediately knelt down in front of the old lady and said, "Third sister is the princess now. It's not easy for others to hear about the third sister."
