After Xu Yin left, a maid came in a hurry and whispered a few words into Princess Dongjiang's ear.
Princess Dongjiang looked surprised, glanced at Xu Si, and finally nodded.
"Miss Xu."
Xu Si heard the sound and looked over.
Princess Dongjiang smiled and said: "I got a painting recently, but I don't know whether it is authentic or not. Your painting skills are so outstanding, how about you help me take a look?"
This sounds like an excuse, but she said it herself. Xu Si had no reason to refuse and happily responded: "The princess has your destiny, how dare you disobey her?"
So he got up and left the table.
The two of them walked all the way to the water pavilion. Princess Dongjiang stopped and said, "Miss Xu, please come and sit inside for a while. The painting will be delivered to you soon."
Xu Si was surprised. She thought the princess had something to say, so she called her out. Why didn't it sound like she was the one who wanted to speak?
But it was the princess who spoke. She had no reason not to believe it, so she responded: "Yes."
Seeing Xu Si enter the water pavilion, Princess Dongjiang asked the maid: "The prince has something to ask, why didn't you tell him before? It's not like we can't meet each other on weekdays."
Just now this maid suddenly came to say that the prince had a few words to ask Miss Xu and asked the princess to invite her to the water pavilion.
Although the princess felt it was inappropriate, this maid was indeed served by Li Wen. After much thought, she decided to trust her son. He was about to succeed the King of Dongjiang, so don't refute his face for such a trivial matter.
After listening to her question, the maid respectfully said: "Returning to the princess, the prince has just thought of it. After today's banquet, it will be decided on the candidate for the prince's concubine. The prince wants to ask clearly. After all, Miss Xu is different from other noble ladies, maybe
It’s related to the alliance between the two families.”
Princess Dongjiang glanced at her: "You know very well, the prince even told you this?"
The maid was startled and knelt down quickly: "Princess, please forgive me, this servant only takes care of the prince's daily life and does not personally serve him. The latter sentence was a guess by the servant. The prince only said that Miss Xu is different from others, so we need to ask clearly.
.”
Princess Dongjiang nodded and warned: "I saw that you were honest and peaceful, so I sent you to take care of the crown prince. In the future, you must remember your duty and don't make your own decisions."
The maidservant was panicking and said: "I don't dare to do it anymore."
Princess Dongjiang then asked her to get up.
There was only such a son, and the couple were very strict with Li Wen on weekdays and would never allow the girls around him to mess up the rules. Of course, Li Wen didn't need them to worry about it. He was clean and tidy around him. Even Princess Dongjiang asked him if he wanted to let go.
The two girls didn't agree either.
I have always kept myself clean, but now that I am about to marry the crown prince, it would be too bad if something messy happens again.
Princess Dongjiang was worried, so she sat in the pavilion outside, waiting for Li Wen to come over so she could give him a few more words.
The maid glanced at her secretly and looked to the side anxiously.
After waiting for a long time, Li Wen's figure finally appeared in the distance. Princess Dongjiang stood up and was about to call him.
"Princess." Another maid came over in a hurry and reported in a panic, "Miss Cen San fell into the water."
Princess Dongjiang was shocked when she heard this: "What? How did Lan'er fall into the water?"
"Miss Cen San went on a boat trip and saw a few remaining lotuses in the lake, so she wanted to pick them. But accidentally,..."
Princess Dongjiang ignored this and told the maid before: "The prince is here, tell him to hurry up. After all, the status has not yet been determined, and it is not appropriate to meet alone in private."
The maid agreed and watched Princess Dongjiang hurried away, breathing a sigh of relief.
However, Li Wen did not come this way. When he reached the intersection, he turned a corner.
The maid touched her chest, exhaled, and left quickly.
She left the pavilion and turned into another small building.
Behind the window of the small building, there was a young lady sitting, it was Wei Si who had come out to change clothes earlier.
"Fourth Miss." The maid saluted, "I have already done what you asked me to do."
While sipping tea, Miss Wei Si said calmly: "You did it, but if I hadn't sent someone to call the princess away in time, I might have been cheated."
The maid replied: "You can't blame me for this. This matter is not in line with the prince's temperament and is against etiquette. The princess should be more cautious."
Miss Wei Si glanced over with a half-smile: "You said that, do you blame me?"
The maid lowered her head, but her tone was not panic: "I don't mean that, I just want to let the fourth lady know that I am doing my best for you. The princess will definitely know afterward that I have no way out."
Miss Wei Si stared at her for a while and finally nodded: "I understand. As long as the matter is completed, I will make the decision and ask the crown prince to accept you. Your parents and brothers will also make corresponding arrangements."
The maid's face was filled with joy: "Thank you so much, Miss Fourth."
Miss Wei Si waved her hand casually: "Okay, go back quickly and don't make anyone suspicious."
"yes."
Watching her walk out, Miss Wei Si sneered, poured the tea in her hand, and lost interest: "Everyone just wants to climb the dragon and follow the phoenix. It's really boring."
The girl next to her smiled and took over the words: "If this were not the case, she would not be easily bribed. Don't you think so, Miss?"
This was true. Miss Wei Si nodded and poured herself tea again.
"Look at the way she acted just now, as if she was threatening me and didn't even know what she was."
The girl Dingxiang comforted her: "Miss, don't be angry. When things are done, her life will depend on your thoughts. It's not easy to deal with her."
Miss Wei Si was comforted, exhaled her turbid breath, and looked outside: "Why haven't they come yet?"
Ding Xiang hurriedly said: "I'll go take a look."
Miss Wei Si responded: "Go back quickly. If something happens, we will go back quickly."
"yes."
Ding Xiang walked out of the small building and walked to a deserted place. Suddenly, she felt a pain in her back and her body softened. Then she was dragged behind the bushes and hid.
The man who knocked her out with a knife turned to look at the tree beside him: "It was really her fault. Miss Wei Si is really brave. She even dared to lie to the princess."
Xu Yin jumped down from the tree and said, "What's wrong with her? If it happens, she will become the Princess of Dongjiang. Now this Princess is nothing more than the dough in her hand, let her make it round and flat."
Having said that, Yan Ling still clicked her tongue and said: "What a ruthless woman. If she becomes a woman, I'm afraid Second Young Master Li's life will not be easy either!"
Xu Yin thought to himself, isn't it? In his previous life, Li Da successfully became the King of Dongjiang, but the back house was completely controlled by Wei Si. This woman is ruthless, and anyone who wants to sleep with him has to look at her face. If not for this, their sisters
How could he be tortured for so many years?
