In the palace, the return of the eldest prince set off a thousand layers of waves, and gradually the situation changed a lot.
The emperor issued an edict to restore the status of the eldest prince and gave him a house. Obviously, he didn't care about the events of the year. Concubine Chen also ranked first among the four concubines again, and even concubine Shu was compared.
For a while, the mother and son were in the limelight.
It is said that the empress of the Zhenggong Palace has a very close relationship with the returned eldest prince, and they get along very well. As soon as this news came out, it was a bit intriguing.
The emperor seems to be in poor health recently, and often invites the imperial physician to the palace for diagnosis and treatment.
According to the imperial decree, a crown prince should be established at this time, but the emperor obviously didn't have that intention, so the party headed by the third prince also started to move.
Behind the First Prince, one of the three pavilions, Mr. Xie Ge, and the seemingly neutral Prince Rui's House stood brazenly.
As for the third prince, apart from the government of An Guo, no one dared to come out to stand in line at this time.
But those actions in private never stopped.
But because Chu Jiyao returned to the imperial city, more people went to his house, so he was too busy to take care of Xiao Ting.
But just like that, he would come to see Xiao Ting every day and talk to her.
And Yuchi felt chilled, he seemed to be a big idler, and these days he often appeared in Zhongtian Moonlight Bieyuan to talk and drink with Xiao Ting, especially when the eldest prince Chu Jiyao was around, he was even more outrageous.
In Miss Xiaoliu's words, she became the brightest light bulb in the sky, a veritable light bulb.
"When will you enter the palace and come with me to meet the royal father?"
When Chu Jiyao said such words suddenly, Xiao Ting was stunned, waved her hands again and again, and said, "No, no, I don't agree with the imperial palace, so I will definitely not enter the palace."
"Ting'er, you once said that if you meet again, you will marry me and stay with me for the rest of your life."
Finally, Chu Jiyao still said these words, and indirectly revealed his identity in front of Yuchi Xinhan.
Yuchi shook his hand holding the glass in dismay, and almost dropped the glass on the ground.
When he came back to his senses, he looked at Xiao Ting excitedly, and winked at her, looking like he was joking.
Xiao Ting secretly rolled her eyes at him, signaling that he must stay and never leave.
But Yuchi was chilled, seeing her silent for a long time, and then met Chu Jiyao's cold eyes, so he patted his butt, ignored Xiao Ting's silent abuse, got up and left.
"According to the days, the prince should be back."
Yuchi's heart was chilling as he strolled in the Moonlight Courtyard in Zhongtian in a suave manner.
While talking to himself, he admired this transformed courtyard.
Suddenly there was a gust of cold air in front of him. He looked forward and almost screamed out.
"My God, A Li, you came back just in time, hurry up, someone is robbing your little princess."
At this moment, Yuchi was heartbroken, turned into a talkative monster, and was about to pull Chuli's hand.
But was avoided by others.
Ninth Prince raised his eyes and glanced at him slightly, and said, "What are you doing in such a hurry?"
"What are you doing? Your rival in love is inside, and he is confessing his love to your little princess."
Yuchi felt chilled and excited for no reason, he really wanted to see Ah Li show other emotions, his eyes lit up.
But the Ninth Prince of Ren just hummed lightly, and didn't move forward any further, but turned around and went elsewhere.
Yuchi was heartbroken by the little tail, and continued to follow, while saying, "Hey, I said Li, you are still a man, but you are a woman, and now you are being confessed by another man, and you don't care, what is your attitude? If you don't work hard, your princess will be kidnapped."
"Didn't I tell you who he was when I wrote the letter?"
"Xie Jingtian, Xie Jingtian, do you still remember? I once lost my life for the sake of your little concubine. My God, what woman wouldn't be moved by such sacrifices?"
The Ninth Prince paused, then lowered his eyes, and said softly: "You are right, a man is willing to die for her, which woman would not be moved?"
Yuchi heaved a sigh of relief, he always knew that his friend was that kind of elm lump, and he didn't know it at all. Hearing what he said now, he knew that there was still hope.
So, with a smile on his face, he was ready to watch a fight for a wife.
Unexpectedly, the Ninth Prince just said this, and then said firmly, "But she is not such a woman."
Continue to walk, stride away.
Yuchi Xinhan was dumbfounded at first, and then jumped behind anxiously, but he was helpless. He really wanted to replace Ah Li, beat up the so-called eldest prince, and then throw him out. This is the husband who defends himself!
Unfortunately, he is not the Ninth Prince.
Not long after they left, on the roof, a little monkey scrambled down the pillar, and it was Gu Shiyi.
"He is my sister's ex-husband, the Ninth Prince of the Empire, and he looks pretty good."
"And he seems to know sister Xiao better than his step-brother."
Eleven murmured to himself, and then ran away.
Xiao Ting is in a state of desperation right now, she can't handle this kind of thing at all, okay? Quickly come to personal help.
It's a pity that the Ninth Prince, who could save her life, is sitting in the room where she lives, drinking tea.
It was like being at his home.
Yuchi Xinhan didn't look like he didn't care about Xiao Ting, but this man came to the door, and he left this kind of matter to Xiao Ting to handle, it was really unbelievable.
Just when Xiao Ting looked forward to the stars and the moon, she said a lot of words to prove that she agreed to comfort Xie Jingtian at that time.
Tell him not to take it to heart, not to mention that as the eldest prince, he can't marry any kind of woman, how can he marry a woman who has been abandoned.
But Chu Jiyao said a word, said: "I once swore that you will not marry in this life."
"Why?" Xiao Ting was very speechless. When he encountered this kind of elm bump, he really wanted to take a hammer and knock his head open, but after all, he was a lifesaver, and he had saved her more than once.
What a headache.
"You saved my life when I was very young."
This sentence again, Xiao Ting is really speechless, she has never seen such a dead-headed person, but the one who saved Xie Jingtian was not herself, but the original owner.
She doesn't want to have too much communication with the original owner, because this kind of soul transformation, the body's instinct has already decided, and it is changing her personality subtly, and if she doesn't persist, she will be assimilated, which is normal.
She is a person in this way, and she understands these things very well, so she doesn't want to have too much entanglement with the past, and those women in the Xiao Mansion are like this today.
On the one hand, it is due to her personality, and on the other hand, she cannot socialize too much with those people to avoid being assimilated.
What's more, she doesn't like cause and effect on such a big event as a life-saving grace.
In Xiao Ting's heart, she only admits this life, the encounter with Xie Jingtian, and the relationship.
"Stop it, let me tell you, you are never allowed to mention life-saving grace in the future. If you talk about life-saving grace, although I don't remember when I saved you, you saved me at least twice, so how can I pay it back?"
"Let me tell you, this kind of drama with your body will not work with this girl. I will not sell myself for anything."
Hearing her words, the people in the corner who hurried over before hearing a few words all burst out laughing collectively. They have never seen such an unreliable master.
"Who, who's there? Come out quickly." Xiao Ting shouted immediately when she heard a voice coming from behind the rockery.
There are still people in Zhongtian Yueguang Bieyuan who dare to laugh at her.
"Hehe..." A row of three little ghosts walked over quickly, Xiao Ting looked at it, and her eyes lit up instantly, "Ah, Xiao Shi, it turns out that you are back."
"My sister is so happy."
Xiao Xin and the others had heard about these things that happened recently along the way, looked up and glanced at Chu Jiyao, and confirmed that this man is the man from before, and now he is pestering her sister again, I heard that he is still the new eldest prince.
Xiao Ting hugged Xiao Xin, and suddenly frowned, "Oh, Xiao Shi, why do I feel that you are so much heavier? Are you secretly eating delicious food while I am away?"
"Elder sister, you didn't even notice, are you tall? We haven't seen each other for almost a year, okay?" As she spoke, Xiao Xin's voice became a little choked up, and Xiao Ting hurriedly coaxed, "Oh, baby, it's my fault, I'm sorry."
"I'm sorry, little ancestor, don't cry."
When they met this time, Xiao Xin didn't cry, she even teased her, Xiao Ting felt that this child was really promising, but before she finished thinking about it, the little ancestor started to cry again.
Green Weed covered her mouth behind them and snickered.
"Girl, don't be afraid. The young master is already five years old. He is an older child. He won't cry for long."
"Oh, that's right, my little darling has grown up by one year, and is an older child. Come and see if my sister looks more handsome."
Red Spoon chimed in behind.
"Seriously, girl, since you're fine, why didn't you come back earlier? We were worrying in vain, thinking what happened to you?"
In fact, before they left the imperial city, they didn't give much hope, they cried all day long, they never thought that there would be a day to meet each other, not only Xiao Xin, but even she wanted to cry.
Xiao Ting naturally knew that her eyelids were shallow, so she quickly covered this topic, "Ah, this, I will explain later, by the way, where did you go? You haven't come back for so many days?"
As soon as she asked, she saw several people looking at her accusingly.
Xiao Ting knew she had asked the wrong question, and just about to interrupt her, Xiao Xin, who was in her arms, was very uncooperative.
he said loudly.
"Daddy took us to find my sister, but I didn't expect my sister to come back by herself before we arrived in Jiangnan. I heard that my sister is accompanied by an eldest prince. Sister, don't you want a prince and brother-in-law?"
"Sister, let me tell you that the empire cannot marry two men, you can only have one man."
"Also, this is my brother-in-law's place. You can't just bring other men in here. It doesn't matter if he is high and powerful, but brother-in-law is still a prince? We can afford to offend him."
