As expected, the news of Qin Zhen's visit to the Fourth Prince's Mansion spread a lot the next day.
The first one who was anxious was Xiao Jue.
Xiao Jue had been forced to retreat by Xiao Yao recently, and he was furious. When he heard that Qin Zhen was actually related to Xiao Yao, he couldn't help it anymore, and sent someone to send a message to Qin Zhen, asking Qin Zhen to go to old age.
The place is waiting for him, he wants to see Qin Zhen.
The old place Xiao Jue mentioned was the tea shop hidden in the alley.
But Qin Zhen was too lazy to deal with him and directly replied to the people in the East Palace: The princess is unwell and has been recuperating at home recently and will not go out.
She didn't take the initiative to go to Xiao Jue, and Xiao Jue had nothing to do with her. He just sent people to invite her again and again.
Qin Zhen thought he was going crazy.
She ignored Xiao Jue who was still there, but she couldn't resist another anxious man who took the initiative to come to the door.
Qin Zhen went out to relax that day, and she was blocked by someone after taking just a few steps.
The other party was a maid from a wealthy family. She stopped in front of Qin Zhen and said, "I have seen the princess."
Qin Zhen raised her eyebrows but said nothing.
Manman took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
The maid ignored Manman, only looked at Qin Zhen and said, "My young lady would like to treat the princess to a cup of tea, and also ask for a favor from the princess."
Manman frowned: "Who is your young lady? Do you think anyone is qualified to invite our princess to tea?"
The maid finally looked at Manman and said, "My lady's surname is Yun."
Manman frowned, but he didn't expect that the princess of their family knew anyone named Yun.
But Qin Zhen reacted quickly.
She looked at the girl and said, "Where is your lady?"
Manman: "Princess, she..."
"It's okay, I know who it is." Qin Zhen said.
Manman said nothing, but his eyes were still wary.
The maid led the way, and soon she led the people into a teahouse.
Qin Zhen knew that this teahouse was not a big place, but it was exquisite in every way. There were not many people, because the charges were extremely expensive, and the people on the other side could not afford it. Those who came to drink tea here were either rich or noble.
Qin Zhen is not particular about tea, so she knows about such a place but has never been there.
After being led in by the girl, Qin Zhen glanced at the surrounding environment and couldn't help but said: "No wonder it's expensive."
Not to mention that the decoration is exquisite, but the spices burned in this room are very expensive.
The maid took the person to the door of a private room and stopped: "Miss, please wait inside. Princess, please."
Manman was a little dissatisfied: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have such a big air in front of our princess, who is she?"
Qin Zhen glanced at her and called out lightly: "Manman."
Manman immediately shut up and said no more.
Qin Zhen nodded to the maid, opened the door and walked in.
In the room, there was already a young woman waiting.
Seeing Qin Zhen come in, the woman stood up, looked at Qin Zhen with full eyes, and said with a smile: "I have heard of the princess's name for a long time, and today I can finally see the princess's grace."
Qin Zhen raised her eyebrows: "What kind of style? Arrogant, domineering, lawless, rude and rude?"
These are all labels placed on Qin Zhen’s head by the outside world.
The woman's expression froze, then she smiled dryly and said, "The princess really knows how to joke."
Qin Zhen laughed and said nothing.
She walked to the opposite side and sat down, looking up at the young woman in front of her. After a while, she said: "You and the Crown Princess are very similar."
The woman raised her eyebrows and said, "The princess is extremely smart."
She didn't reveal her identity, but the other party seemed to have expected it.
Qin Zhen looked the woman in front of her up and down, and thought to herself: This Yun Ruhui seems to be much smarter than Yun Ruying, but I don't know if her life is as tough as Yun Ruying's?
Yun Ruhui sat down opposite Qin Zhen, poured her a cup of tea with her own hands, and said, "Presumably, the princess also knows why I'm looking for you today, right?"
Qin Zhen pretended to be stupid: "How will I know if you don't tell me?"
Yun Ruhui smiled and said, "The princess must know."
Qin Zhen was too lazy to talk in circles with her, so she simply pointed out: "Because of the fourth prince?"
"The marriage contract between His Highness the Fourth Highness and me has been finalized. We will get married when the Heavenly Supervisor calculates the right time." Yun Ruhui said calmly, "Before that, I don't want to create any complications."
Qin Zhen: "You are thinking too much."
"I didn't think much about it," Yun Ruhui smiled and said, "After all, you almost became the fourth prince's concubine. Moreover, the fourth prince has a good relationship with you, who knows if he has you in his heart?"
Qin Zhen felt bored.
I used to think that Yun Ruhui might be a little smarter than Yun Ruying, but now it seems that she is just half a person.
She said calmly: "If I wanted to have something with the fourth prince, I would have gotten married when the late queen was still alive. How could it be your turn?"
"It's not that I look down on you. If I want to compete with you for Xiao Yao, you really have no chance of winning." Qin Zhen said lazily, "Do you think he values the Yun family or the Qin family more?"
The smile that had been on Yun Ruhui's face could no longer hold up and gradually cracked.
She didn't expect that this female bandit would be so aggressive, so reckless, and would dare to say anything.
Yun Ruhui felt embarrassed.
She later realized that it was a wrong decision to come to the door.
"What the princess is saying is that my mind was confused for a moment and I didn't turn around." Yun Ruhui quickly adjusted herself and held up the teacup to offer to Qin Zhen, "I was so offensive before, so please ask the princess to
Don’t remember the faults of villains.”
Qin Zhen did not drink the tea, but looked at Yun Ruhui and asked curiously: "Do you really like Xiao Yao?"
Yun Ruhui almost knocked over the tea cup in her hand.
A layer of blush spread over her face, she moved her lips, and said softly: "His Fourth Highness, he is...very good, and my parents are very satisfied."
When Qin Zhen saw her like this, she knew that Yun Ruhui was sincerely interested in Xiao Yao.
Also, with Xiao Yao's appearance and romantic temperament, it's strange that the little girl doesn't like him.
Her parents are naturally satisfied. After all, he is a figure who can compete with the prince. He bets his money on Xiao Yao. If Xiao Yao wins in the future, then Yun Cheng will have the merit of following the dragon and become the emperor.
The father-in-law, by then the Yun family would become the largest noble in the capital.
Qin Zhen shook her head and said, "Silly girl."
Yun Ruhui was stunned and looked up at her: "What do you mean, Princess?"
"It's nothing," Qin Zhen stood up and walked out, saying, "Keep your Fourth Highness safe, no one will fight against you. I am not your enemy, not now, and I will never be your enemy in the future."
After saying that, he didn't even look at Yun Ruhui and walked away.
In the room, Yun Ruhui looked at her back and said softly: "She is a little different from the rumors..."
She drank the tea in the cup and was about to get up and leave. But as soon as she stood up, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Xiao Yao walked in with a cold face.
