Chapter 785: Calculating, sleeping with the imperial concubines niece
The moment she stood up, a strong hand-stretched in through the curtain: “Get off!”
Lin Chujiu froze in place and hesitated for a moment, but then smiled silently and held Xiao Tianyao’s hand to get off the carriage: “Thank you, Wangye.”
Xiao Tianyao’s hands were strong. When Lin Chujiu got off the carriage, she completely pressed the weight of her body on Xiao Tianyao’s hand, but Xiao Tianyao’s hands didn’t even shake.
However, when Lin Chujiu got out of the car, Xiao Tianyao withdrew his hand, and confessed with a cold face: “Help wangfei back, and take good care of her.” Then he left.
Seeing Xiao Tianyao striding toward the study room without any regrets, Housekeeper Cao and Manao felt the urge to hit the wall. Especially Housekeeper Cao, wished to grab Xiao Tianyao’s shoulder and ask: “Wangye, do you know what you are doing?”
Xiao Tianyao put aside his business, and waited two hours at the city gate before bringing their princess back, but refused to take a quarter of an hour to accompany her back to the courtyard. Is this something a human can do?
Housekeeper Cao stroked his forehead with a headache, hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward bravely: “Wangfei, wangye went to the city gate early this morning. He set aside a lot of official business that needs to be dealt with. I’m afraid that wangye rush to deal with them.” As a dedicated subordinate, Housekeeper Cao felt that he had done enough.
“Wangye went to the city gate early in the morning and waited for 2 hours?” Lin Chujiu raised an eyebrow as if she didn’t believe it.
Didn’t that man say that he went to pick her up on purpose?
What does he mean to wait two hours?
Housekeeper Cao nodded vigorously: “Calculating the time, it should be two and a half hours.”
Lin Chujiu nodded and then looked at the guards who followed Xiao Tianyao out of the city: “Wangye has been at the city gate all morning and didn’t go anywhere else?”
“Answering back wangfei, yes!” The guard didn’t know about the “competition” between Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, so he answered truthfully.
Lin Chujiu nodded lightly, the corners of her lips slightly curved into a smile. She said in a good mood: “Don’t tell wangye that I know he has been waiting at the city gate for 2 hours.”
Thinking of what Xiao Tianyao said in the carriage: “Don’t be complacent, benwang didn’t come to pick you up on purpose”
Lin Chujiu wanted to laugh.
Xiao Tianyao intentionally and eagerly explained. He was not an ordinary coquettish man.
“I don’t know, if I tell Xiao Tianyao that I know that he is waiting for me at the city gate, will that man blush?” Lin Chujiu thought to herself, the more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible.
She’ll have to find some time and try it out.
“Wangfei? Are you okay?” Zhenzhu and Manao looked at Lin Chujiu standing there and giggled, wanting to go forward but not daring.
“Ah… I’m fine, let’s go.” Lin Chujiu looked embarrassed. To cover up her gaffe, Lin Chujiu also walked very quickly. Housekeeper Cao looked at Lin Chujiu’s back that was disappearing and shook his head: The world of their masters, was something servants like them can’t figure out.
“Okay, okay, everyone has worked hard. Let’s go and rest.” With his hands behind his back, Housekeeper Cao signaled that all the guards dispersed. Otherwise, what else should they do?
“Yes.” The Jinwuwei soldiers and Xiao Tianyao’s soldiers dispersed separately without negotiating with each other.
In the study, Xiao Tianyao was not in a hurry to deal with official business as Housekeeper Cao said, but sat alone in a chair and meditated, frowning from time to time, looking very distressed.
The shadow guard wanted to come out several times to report the progress of the matter, but he was afraid of disturbing Xiao Tianyao, so he stood obediently and didn’t dare to move.
Lin Chujiu walked for a long time before returning to her small courtyard. Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar courtyard in front of her, Lin Chujiu sighed in her heart.
She returned to the capital again, to this place where can eat people without spitting out their bones and killed people without shedding blood.
“Recently, is there anything fun going on in the capital?” Lin Chujiu slowed down and walked across the green grass in front of the courtyard at a leisurely pace.
Now that she was back in the capital, whether she wanted to or not, she has to cheer up and deal with the people and things in the capital.
Zhenzhu and Manao were specially trained servants. Although Lin Chujiu asked in general terms, they still knew what Lin Chujiu wanted to hear.
“The most interesting thing in the capital is the victory of Prince Xiao. To celebrate, some shops in the capital sold their goods at extremely cheap prices. The ordinary people were so happy that they called the prince a god, and the other shops followed suit.”
“In addition to the matter of the prince leading the victory, there is also the fact that the empress was ill some time ago. No one knows the cause of the disease. It is said that her life was in danger. Later, for some reason, she suddenly recovered.”
“There is another very sensational thing. A few days ago, Lin Furen and Second Miss Lin went to the temple to offer incense and met Imperial Concubine Zhou and The Third Prince who left the palace wearing ordinary clothes. The whereabouts of Imperial Concubine Zhou and the Third Prince were leaked, attracting a large number of assassins. During the battle, Lin Furen blocked the knife for Imperial Concubine Zhou and almost died.”
“Fortunately, Lin Furen was a lucky person and her life was not in danger. The Emperor and Imperial Concubine Zhou valued Lin Furen very much and sent rewards to the Lin Family Mansion. I also heard that Imperial Concubine Zhou likes Second Miss Lin very much. Once Lin Furen felt better, she and Second Miss Lin enters the palace every three days.”
“Second Miss Lin and Concubine Zhou became close to each other, didn’t the Crown Prince say anything?” Lin Chujiu frowned slightly and her steps were slightly sluggish.
Only a fool will not understand what the Lin family was up to.
Getting close to both sides, Prime Minister Lin… … was not afraid of death.
Doesn’t he know that he was the most taboo person in the imperial court?
“The Crown Prince, he…” Zhenzhu hesitated for a moment, then took a peek at Lin Chujiu. Seeing that Lin Chujiu frowned because of her pause, and hurriedly said: “Wangfei, the Crown Prince, he…he, he slept with Imperial Concubine Zhou’s niece.” In the end, Zhenzhu buried her head in her chest.
After all, she was still a girl who hasn’t left the cabinet, so she was embarrassed to say this.
“He slept with Imperial Concubine Zhou’s niece? What’s going on? The Crown Prince wants to marry someone from the Zhou family?” Lin Chujiu paused as her eyes widened.
How stupid was the crown prince to be tricked by the Zhou family? Or, how naive was the crown prince to plot against the Zhou family?
If the Crown Prince married the daughter of the Zhou family, it means that he will lose the support of a powerful Yue family. The Crown Prince wouldn’t naively think that if he married the Zhou family’s daughter, the Zhou family would give up supporting Imperial Concubine Zhou and the Third Prince, right?
“This slave doesn’t know about the rest. This matter was kept secret and didn’t spread. I only know that the Crown Prince was drinking and having fun in Changchun Garden. When he got drunk, he lost his way and walked to Miss Zhou’s yard and spend the night with Miss Zhou there.” Speaking of the intimate relationship between men and women, Zhenzhu’s face blushed again.
The Crown Prince was really… …
Lin Chujiu shook her head and asked: “Has the emperor issued a decree to grant the marriage?” It seems that the marriage between the Crown prince and the daughter of the Zhou family was a certainty, but she doesn’t know who calculate who.
“The Emperor hasn’t decided yet. But it is said that the Zhou family disagrees, and Imperial Concubine Zhou is making a fuss. However, this matter is a scandal after all, the news hasn’t spread, and only the people in the palace and the Zhou family know the progress of the matter.” Zhenzhu and the other maidservants were capable, but they can only stay in the mansion. In addition, the emperor sealed Xiao Wangfu some time ago, and everyone in the mansion was in danger. It wasn’t easy for her to find out the news.
As for what happened to these things, she was afraid that only their prince’s hidden guard can find out… …
