"I'm going to say hello to my mother in the morning. I heard about what happened yesterday evening. I was afraid that the fourth girl would be alone with her thoughts, so she asked me to come over and accompany you for a walk, just in time to see you off."
The Crown Princess and Xie Songhua had met before, and they could barely be considered to have a pleasant conversation, so the tone of these words seemed particularly casual.
But Xie Songhua sounded very puzzled. This was just a trip to the palace, why did she need her special company?
but……
Her eyes fell involuntarily on the palace maid over there, and she smiled and bowed to the Crown Princess, "Then I'll thank you, the Crown Princess."
Even Gao Ying, the legitimate daughter of Ge's hometown, is still in white, and the Crown Princess is actually sending her off in person. Even Gao Ying looks at her with such dignity.
It is said that there must be a demon when something goes wrong. Someone with a clever mind could guess that there might be something going on here. But now that the Crown Princess is here, such things are not easy for ordinary people to pry into.
Xie Songhua was about to follow her when he heard the princess suddenly say: "Third sister, last night my grandmother asked me to take good care of you. You should also follow me! There are some things that I need to explain to you clearly."
Although she had a smile on her face and her words showed some intimacy between sisters, the alienation in her tone was very obvious.
Zhao Yuechan took a step back subconsciously, her face turned pale, but she could only respond in a low voice.
Xie Songhua followed the Crown Princess all the way to the entrance of the palace. The Crown Princess was still as cheerful as ever and talked to Xie Songhua about the buildings in the palace.
"It's a pity that the fourth girl has to go back so soon. If you come to the palace again next time, I will take you around."
Who would want to visit this place!
Xie Songhua complained in his heart, with a smile on his face. He glanced over and saw Zhao Yuechan walking beside him with his head lowered, almost without saying a word.
When he came to a corner, I don't know if it was Xie Songhua's illusion, but he seemed to see a figure jumping out of the shadows quickly, which seemed to be a guard.
Looking at the Zhao sisters again, the expression on the princess's face did not change at all, as if she didn't notice at all.
However, Zhao Yuechan's lips began to turn white. When the sun shone down, Xie Songhua even noticed a thin layer of sweat on her forehead.
She sent Xie Songhua all the way to the palace gate. Seeing that the carriage was packed and Ding Xiang and Bitao also arrived, she turned around and left with Zhao Yuechan.
Xie Songhua naturally bowed and sent her off respectfully.
When the palace door closed, the sound of rolling carriage wheels was isolated from the outside, as if it suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, the smile on the face of the princess disappeared. She walked in front with her head held high, her face as cold as the stone walls on both sides of the corridor.
Zhao Yuechan was so nervous that she could hardly breathe. She could only secretly look at her face, and then she became even more nervous.
Finally walking to a deserted place, the Crown Princess stopped, turned around suddenly, and her eyes struck Zhao Yuechan like two lightning bolts, "You are so brave, how dare you use tricks in the palace?!"
This sentence explained all the problems. Zhao Yuechan did not expect that she had arranged the arrangement, but the Crown Princess understood everything.
Her knees softened and she almost knelt down. Fortunately, she held on to the floor lamp on the side in time and managed to stand. After calming herself down, she quickly said: "Sister, I am thinking about us too!"
That Xie Songhua has the so-called Tianfeng destiny. If he fails to enter the palace this time, he will definitely be pointed out to the East Palace by the Queen!
She is so beautiful, her father is a cabinet minister, and her grandfather was once the emperor's husband. If such a person is placed in the East Palace, what will happen to you, eldest sister..."
"Shut up!" The Crown Princess was almost furious at the cousin in front of her. "There's no need to use clever words in front of me. Are you doing it for me or yourself? Who can you hide it from?"
Zhao Yuechan opened her mouth, but could not speak. The Crown Princess exposed her thoughts with one sentence, leaving her unable to defend herself. She could only bite her lip and lower her eyes in silence.
The Crown Princess sneered, "Let me tell you, since you have decided to enter the East Palace, you should recognize your own identity. If you did such an untalented thing when the Holy Emperor selected the concubine, you think your aunt's position is too stable.
Or do you think His Highness is not bothered enough during this time?
Because of the incident in Jinyuchi, many people inside and outside the court are secretly laughing at His Highness and the Zhao family. If you dare to cause trouble again, don’t blame me for being rude!"
After hearing what the Crown Princess said, Zhao Yuechan couldn't hold back her tears and rolled down her eyes, but she was still dissatisfied, "I know what happened in the goldfish pond. It was me who brought trouble to the family.
But I have also explained that I have no idea what happened. I was knocked unconscious and thrown over. Now I am worried that because of this incident, His Highness will resent our family and will welcome Xie Songhua in and turn around.
And I value the Xie family more, so..."
She couldn't continue talking and started crying.
The Crown Princess was not moved at all by her tears, but asked coldly: "Who gave you the idea?"
This sentence made Zhao Yuechan's tears stop immediately, with a look of surprise on her face.
This appearance made the Crown Princess sneer, "I don't know what kind of person you are at home? You have a high self-esteem, short-sightedness, and a tendency to be picky, but you are also prone to anger and anger.
I don't doubt that you think so, but what I doubt is that the Holy Father only asked Xie Songhua to go back last night, but you were able to accomplish this in such a short period of time, even if no one ordered you, ha..."
She sneered again, "Is it possible?"
Zhao Yuechan's face was ashamed and angry, and her pink face turned red. Under the stern gaze of the Crown Princess, she was finally defeated and mumbled: "Then Xie Shuhua said, Xie Songhua is used to win over people's hearts.
In such a short period of time, everyone in the Xie family pampered her like nothing else.
If she enters the East Palace, with her methods, neither of us sisters are likely to be opponents, so it is better to cut off the possibility of her entering the palace as soon as possible."
After saying that, he wanted to make a few comments for himself, "I think what she said is very reasonable. What's more, Concubine Gao handles everything in the palace. You also know the eldest palace maid, and we have people from the East Palace.
What can’t be believed?
When the matter is done, once the person is hidden, the responsibility will only fall on Concubine Gao. Since Concubine Gao and the third prince have been hit, Xie Songhua will have no choice but to marry that guard, so we can rest easy!"
Listening to her tone, she seemed to feel a little regretful that the plan didn't work. The princess was so angry that she couldn't breathe. I really don't know why the family didn't just strangle her with a rope. Send such a fool to the East Palace. How can she be punished in the future?
Don't know what will happen!
The Crown Princess's tone became extremely stern, "Now you can go back to Chuxiu Palace in peace and safety. Until the Holy Emperor's decree is issued, you should keep your tail between your legs. If you dare to cause any trouble, I won't spare you!"
Zhao Yuechan was extremely aggrieved by her training. She was obviously doing it for the good of the East Palace, and she didn't think there was anything inappropriate about today's situation.
Think about it again, every day in the house, I hear the elders praising myself for how outstanding my eldest sister is.
Now it seems that I am clearly timid and have missed opportunities all my life.
But she still endured her dissatisfaction and said in a low voice: "I know."
After taking two steps, the Crown Princess stopped again and said, "There is one more thing that I want to explain to you at once."
Her terrifying eyes fell on Zhao Yuechan again, "I believe you were manipulated about the goldfish pond, but what do you think of the purse embroidered with Yunyue that your brother-in-law received years ago?"
