The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down

Liang Hongwen kept smiling nonchalantly. Li Xia was frightened by him and her heart started pounding. She was excited for him to get closer to her, but also unwilling to let him go. In the end, she could only glare at Pei Yi fiercely and left angrily.

Pei Yi and the others left and wanted to turn around and go back to the house, but they were stopped.

The maids and servants around them no longer dared to stay and all left, leaving only these two people in the yard.

Liang Hongwen walked up to Pei Yi, and Pei Yi bowed and greeted him.

When facing her, Liang Hongwen's smile was less casual and more sincere. "What would you have done if I hadn't come just now?"

Pei Yi didn't expect him to ask her this, so she took a step back and distanced herself from him. "What can I do? My cousin is the master, and there is really no other way. I can only let her frame me and drive me out of the house."

Hearing her say this, Liang Hongwen smiled, and Pei Yi's figure was all in his eyes.

"Really? You are not such an honest girl. Nanny Han said that the pirates were very vicious that day. The maids around my mother were so scared that they ran away for their lives, but you were so brave and skillful that you jumped out to fight for your life. I am really curious about your origins."

Pei Yi answered cautiously: "Sir, I don't remember anything."

"You really don't remember anything?" Liang Hongwen took a step forward and Pei Yi stepped back. When she reached the stairs, she didn't pay attention for a moment and fell backwards.

Liang Hongwen grabbed her waist, and Pei Yi pushed him away in panic. "Prince, please respect yourself."

After she said this, she left in a hurry. Liang Hongwen was not angry when she pushed him away. Instead, he smiled more meaningfully.

After a while, he called out the old woman who was hiding in the dark.

"What did mom just see?"

Old woman Gu waved her hands hurriedly, "I didn't see anything."

"No, you saw it." Liang Hongwen said, "You saw me, the prince, flirting with Miss Ziyi, so you will definitely tell my mother, right?"

Gu Po shuddered and knelt on the ground in panic. "Please forgive me, my lord. Please forgive me, I really didn't peek on purpose. I will keep my mouth shut and won't tell anyone about it."

Liang Hongwen smiled and said, "Mom, get up. What are you doing? This prince said that you must tell me the truth. Tell me what you saw today. Don't hide anything. Even if it's about me molesting Miss Ziyi, you have to tell me, not a single word can be missed. Do you understand?"

When Mrs. Gu realized that he was not speaking in a sarcastic way, she nodded rapidly and agreed.

After the people left, he was still muttering to himself.

Otherwise, the prince has taken a fancy to the girl Zi Yi, and Zi Yi is really about to become a phoenix.

Pei Yi suffered a grievance and returned to the house to find her things in a mess. Fortunately, she had not lived here for a long time and had nothing, not even two valuables.

She calmly put everything back in place. After finishing all this, she took out the needle and thread from the small basket and continued to embroider the headband.

When she was halfway through embroidering, Guiyuan came in with a bag of candy in her hand. "Sister Ziyi, this is the rice candy I told you about that day. Come and try it and see if it tastes good."

Pei Yi had no interest at first, but couldn't resist Guiyuan's enthusiasm. He picked up a candy, put it in his mouth and took a bite, but as soon as he put it in his mouth, he was stunned.

This taste...

She was a little nervous and looked at Guiyuan, "Where did you buy this rice candy?"

Guiyuan ate the crunchy rice candy and said with a smile, "Where else could it be? Didn't I tell you? A few days ago, there were a few sisters at the back door. They heard the peddler selling rice candy and went out to buy it. Sister Xing'er gave me a small piece. It tasted very good. I have been thinking about it until now. The peddler came again today, and Sister Xing'er specifically asked me to go buy it with her. I bought several bags. If Sister Ziyi likes it, let's go buy it together next time."

"Is the peddler still here?" Zi Yi was a little nervous and smiled, "I think it tastes great, I want to buy some too."

Guiyuan shook her head: "It's gone. When I went there, there were only a few packets left. Several sisters were vying for them. I finally got these two packets. If you want to eat them, wait a few days. I heard that the peddler will come once in a few days."

"What does the peddler look like?" Pei Yi asked curiously again. He felt that it was impossible, but he also had some expectations.

Could it be someone I know?

But thinking that the only person in the entire Zhenguo Mansion who knows how to make this rice candy is A'niang, she felt a little disappointed. She was afraid that she was not someone she knew and it was just a coincidence.

Guiyuan thought for a moment and said, "That guy looks ordinary, tall and thin, with dark skin. But when he smiles, his white teeth look pretty good."

Hearing this, Pei Yi's hopes were dashed again. But the taste of the rice candy made her reluctant to leave. She didn't sleep well the whole night, just wondering when the rice candy seller would come.

But after waiting for a day or two, the peddler did not show up. Instead, Princess Yanghe came back from the temple and heard about what Li Xia had done. She held the teacup with a gloomy expression, as if thinking about something.

After hearing what her aunt said, Nanny Han looked at Princess Yanghe with a strange expression.

Seeing that the princess didn't say anything, he said, "So what the prince means is that the thing was framed by the cousin?"

Mother Gu nodded, and said what the prince asked her to say without reservation, then stood there with a nervous expression waiting for Princess Yanghe's instructions.

Princess Yanghe put down the teacup heavily and sneered. "After all, she is a concubine's daughter, and she has no education. I don't know what my brother is blind for, to force such a fool to come to me. He even wants to use me to ask for a title in the palace for her. Humph, I don't know what that slut is up to."

Seeing that she was angry, Nanny Han quickly tried to calm her down. "From what I can see, the prince has no feelings for my cousin. If you really don't like her, there are many ways to get rid of her. Why get angry over such a small matter?"

Princess Yanghe nodded calmly and looked at Granny Gu. "When I left, I ordered you to look after the yard. Since you can't even do this, I'll fine you two months' salary. If this happens again, you won't be able to work for me anymore."

Gu Pozi regretted very much that she did not persuade her cousin that day. She really bet on the wrong girl, thinking that she would definitely marry the prince, but who would have thought that the lady and the prince did not like her at all.

I'm just flirting with a blind man. My efforts are in vain.

Nanny Han told Gu Po to leave, then she closed the door and whispered to Princess Yanghe, "This old servant sees that the young master has taken a fancy to the girl in purple clothes?"

Princess Yanghe didn't care. "You don't know what kind of person he is. He is acting for me. It's better to say that he wants to use Ziyi's story to tell me that he will never let Li Xia in."
