When the prince heard Chu Nianhe’s question, he laughed happily a few times. After laughing enough, he said to the princess: “My sister is a weird person, like a mother’s queen. Now that you have this female official, your words are the same as you. It’s so interesting.”
“Don’t talk nonsense,” although the princess was a little angry, she still smiled and said, “You haven’t gone out yet, and why are you going back halfway? I’ll talk to Nianhe about the boudoir, and you still have to eavesdrop. I haven’t taught you by my side for these years, and you don’t even understand these rules.”
After saying that, she reached out and helped Chu Nianhe up: “Don’t listen to my younger brother’s nonsense. Look at him having a gentle and honest face, but he is actually a funny guy who loves nonsense.”
Chu Nianhe stood up with the help of the princess, while expecting that he was teased by the prince. But after all, the prince was the prince. Even if she was a little angry, she had to persuade the prince for the sake of the prince’s face: “I was indeed rude outside the door just now, and it is appropriate to apologize to His Highness the Prince. The princess is very grateful for my sake, but it is better not to hurt your kindness for me.”
After hearing this, the prince walked forward happily and said half a step: “It seems that I was wrong. This Miss Chu is much gentler than her sister!”
“Shut up, otherwise I care whether you are the prince or not,
I must have to ask someone to beat you up before I can stop!” The princess snorted coldly, turned around and sat back on the soft collapse, and then said, “What else do you have to say when you come back?”
Chu Nianhe stood aside with her head down with embarrassment, hoping that the prince would finish his words quickly and leave Bishui Pavilion quickly.
But who knew that the prince sat on the mahogany chair opposite the collapse, and then said to the princess: “I just remembered when I went out. Today, when my father went to court, he talked about the floods along the river and the victims starved everywhere. I saw that the seventh brother seemed to know very well how to comfort the victims, so I wanted to inquire with you. Does the seventh brother really have experience in this area?”
It’s Yan Lichen again.
Chu Nianhe’s hands were tighter and tighter, and the princess’s expression became a little ugly. After the two looked at each other, the princess asked the prince, “Has Yan Lichen invited him to comfort the victims again?”
After thinking about it, she asked again, “Where is the fourth brother? What did the fourth brother say?”
After hearing the princess’ words, the prince looked at her with a little strangeness and said, “You are so quick to hear the gods. You have known that they have had a conflict.”
After that, he picked up a piece of pastry and ate it on his own, and said, “The pastries here still taste the same. Why have you been eating them for so many years? “
The princess has long known that her brother Dian’erAlthough he usually ignored him, he asked him anxiously, “What are their quarrels? You said! Alas! You are so anxious!” When the prince saw that the princess was indeed serious, he said seriously, “The Seventh Brother asked him to go to the riverside to provide disaster relief, saying that he had experience and how he could appease the dissatisfied mob. But the fourth brother said that the seventh brother was not doing his job properly. Every time he provided disaster relief, he was greedy for money and wanted to get some benefits. After a few rounds, the two of them naturally started arguing.”
The prince’s tone was very casual, and his speech logic was good. Chu Nianhe listened aside, and his heart couldn’t help but start to swell.
Although Yan Liqing has gained the trust of the emperor, she has done a good job in the disaster relief work in Zhenjiang Prefecture. But the power of the Queen and Yan Lichen is like a big tree with deep roots. It is extremely difficult to uproot them. At this time, Yan Lichen was eager to make contributions. If Yan Liqing still pursued him relentlessly, it would inevitably lead to doubts from all the civil and military officials of the court. After saying this, no matter how pragmatic Yan Liqing is, she will probably be compared by Yan Lichen, who is clever and arrogant.
