Chu Jingxing became more and more obedient, but the heavy stone in Princess Linjiang's heart was lifted up one by one. She hesitated for a while before sitting up straight and looking at her son, and asked: "Jingxing, something happened at your uncle Zheng's wedding yesterday..."
The Linjiang Palace carefully considered the wording and then told the story of the conflict between Wei An and Princess Xianrong.
He cleared his throat and said with some worry: "It seems that your wife is no match for Wei An. Wei An is very eloquent..."
Chu Jingxing didn't say anything. He quietly peeled the remaining longevity fruits and put them on a plate for Princess Linjiang. He hummed softly, "I know about this."
Princess Linjiang couldn't help but be a little surprised: "You know everything?"
But she herself was still unsure about this matter. She paused before saying, "In fact, Wei An is cunning and slippery..."
She glanced at her son's face and said softly, "The Queen has already given gifts to the Mei and Ding families today."
That means compensating them.
Prince Linjiang sighed and touched his son's face: "As soon as your marriage is over, we will leave Beijing. We can't let you go. The capital is becoming more and more muddy... Remember to restrain your wife and don't let her cause trouble that she shouldn't." Although the matter was covered up this time, everyone knew what was going on.
Prince Linjiang has already complained about Lady Xianrong's disregard for the overall situation. If Lady Xianrong makes another mistake, Chu Jingxing will be in a dilemma.
Chu Jingxing agreed to all of them. Seeing that Princess Linjiang looked tired, he asked her, "Can't you just go to the palace to pay your respects? Why did you come back only now?"
When this matter was mentioned, Princess Linjiang's eyes became even more gloomy, and she sighed with a worried look on her face: "The fourth prince is ill."
Today, Prince Zheng brought his new queen to the palace to express his gratitude. Even the emperor did him the honor and after Prince Zheng kowtowed, they went to Fengyi Palace and planned to invite him to stay for dinner.
But who knew that at this time the Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince started quarreling again for some reason.
The Fifth Prince was chubby and cute, with big, bright eyes. He stared at the Fourth Prince with tears in his eyes, but he didn't cry. However, the Fourth Prince was about to stab the Fifth Prince with the fork he was playing with.
Although this thing was for children to play with, it was very sharp. The palace maids serving in the first hall were all panicked and scrambled for it. It was with great difficulty that they finally took the thing away from the Fourth Prince.
The fourth prince sat on the ground and cried out of breath.
He often cried like this and no one took it seriously at first. Even Queen Fang just whispered to the wet nurse to carry him to the back hall. Who knew that something bad would happen.
The Fourth Prince could hardly breathe, his limbs twitched, and foam began to come out of his mouth.
This really scared everyone present, and it was not until the imperial physician arrived that the Fourth Prince's condition was stabilized.
After hearing this, Chu Jingxing smiled slightly.
It seems that the fight between the two palaces is no longer concealed.
It's a good time.
It was indeed a good time and he was in a very good mood. He made an excuse to go back to his room to look for a book. When he saw Nanny Yuan, who was sent by the Princess Chang'an's Mansion, he greeted her with a friendly expression.
Nanny Yuan replied with a smile on her face, and had the room decorated according to the boudoir of Princess Xianrong at home. She quickly walked to Chu Jingxing and whispered, "Sir, the princess asked me to let you know that she has done what you asked her to do."
This is the benefit of having a good ally. Even if she is in a bad situation, she can always turn things around.
Chu Jingxing hummed, and asked Yuan Ma to repeat what happened in Prince Zheng's Mansion last night with interest: "Think carefully about what everyone said, and don't make a single mistake."
Nanny Yuan immediately said yes and recounted what happened yesterday.
Chu Jingxing sat lazily and casually on the armchair, laughed and said, "I see."
So, Princess Chang'an took advantage of this opportunity to lead the Wei family to Liu Biping and fulfill her promise to him
It's a good way to divert trouble away.
There is just one flaw - although Princess Chang'an is so powerful, it is a pity that Lady Xianrong is unable to accomplish anything great.
He was so stupid as to be provoked by Wei An's few words and hire someone to frame him in someone else's house. It was really foolish.
Such a person... ... .
As if she knew what he was thinking, Nanny Yuan immediately said, "Our eldest princess said that she needs to ask your opinion on something else. Do you think we should settle down the orphan of the Ming family, or not?"
What a wonderful person.
Chu Jingxing knew that Princess Chang'an was using the child as a favor, so he smiled and said, "If you really can't find a place to put the child, why not leave it with me? I'll be able to use it in the future."
This is a good chess piece to restrain King Zheng.
If Liu Biping failed to overthrow the Wei family, he would still be an excellent candidate to threaten the Wei family.
Princess Chang'an has really thought of everything carefully.
In this case, he couldn't be too picky. He smiled gently and clapped his hands. Then an ordinary maid came in, holding a black lacquered and gold-painted box in her hands: "Thank you for your hard work, Mammy. This is my New Year's gift to Ah Sheng. Although we are engaged, I dare not give it to her privately. Since you are the eldest princess's personal mammy, it is not considered a private gift after you pass it by. Please pass it to her for me."
Nanny Yuan couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
How could Princess Xianrong be a match for a person who could change his expression as easily as turning the pages of a book
With that in mind, she went back and told Princess Chang'an dutifully: "The county lady is a sincere person... I'm afraid she can't handle it..."
Princess Chang'an understood what she meant, frowned and sighed softly: "How could I not know this? I was just about to tell you that you will be given as part of the dowry when the time comes, and also... the families in the outer courtyard will be given to her..."
She paused and asked Aunt Yuan, "And Hongying and the others...what do you think of them?"
Nanny Yuan quickly understood what she meant: "Are you planning to choose a maid for the county lady as a dowry?"
To put it nicely, she is a dowry maid, but in fact she is used to consolidate the mistress's favor and bear children.
Nanny Yuan thought for a moment and shook her head: "These few people are loyal, but not smart enough. They don't know how to advise the county lady when she does something wrong."
This is the worst.
She felt at ease only after having an experienced person following her. Princess Chang'an asked the people waiting outside to wait for a while. After thinking about it, she selected a few candidates for the Lady of Xianrong County.
