After winning the polo match, the gold-inlaid jade ruyi fell into Wu Su's hands.

Just like in his previous life, Wu Su proposed to Xiao Jingyue in front of everyone.

The whole room was in an uproar and whispering.

On this side, while A Bao was thinking about how to use Wu Su, he looked at Su Fengyue and saw that her face had lost all color and her eyes were red.

On the other side, Xiao Jingyue was surprised and glanced at Abao with secret pride.

However, what Abao was thinking about was something other than the polo match.

In her previous life, it was the third year of her reign.

Wu Su once again proposed marriage to the King of Jiangnan, wanting to marry Xiao Jingyue as the wife of Marquis Wu Zhong.

Until that time, Xiao Jingyue, for the first time ever, actually nodded and agreed.

The wedding preparations took two years. In the fifth year of her reign, King Xiao Shen of Jiangnan fell seriously ill. She took Pei Guichen to visit him at the King's Mansion of Jiangnan. Pei Guichen and Xiao Jingyue took the opportunity to have an affair and got pregnant.

After Xiao Jingyue became pregnant, she rejected Wu Su's marriage proposal.

Thinking of this, A Bao wanted to remind Su Fengyue that everyone knew Wu Su's feelings for Xiao Jingyue.

Since Lang is so ruthless, Su Fengyue doesn't have to hang herself on a tree.

What's more, Wu Su is a crooked tree.

After making the decision, Abao felt a little more relaxed and just watched the whole thing as if it were a funny monkey show.

Although this polo match in the Xiao Mansion's villa was originally prepared for men and women to meet each other, Wu Su's direct proposal of marriage still made Princess Xiao embarrassed.

Princess Xiao looked at Xiao Jingyue quietly, waiting for her answer.

Xiao Jingyue said softly, "It's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. Jingyue doesn't dare to make the decision on her own."

These words did not make it final.

Wu Su immediately looked at Mrs. Wu, but Mrs. Wu frowned impatiently and did not speak.

It is obvious that Wu Su's proposal of marriage did not receive the approval of Mrs. Wu.

Although men and women were attracted to each other, no one proposed marriage directly, as it was too arrogant and indulgent.

As a result, this scene made everyone in the room surprised, teasing, inquiring, and laughing, with different expressions.

Seeing this, Princess Xiao forced a smile and said, "It may be that the polo match just now was too intense, causing Master Wu to be distracted. He is young and frivolous, so he just laughed it off. Let's just chat and play today, and don't talk about anything else."

Changing the subject, Princess Xiao signaled to the painter beside her with her eyes.

It was brought specially from Jiangnan by Princess Xiao, who had superb painting skills. The hustle and bustle of today's polo match was captured on paper by the painter.

Lu Lang took the painting presented by the painter and spread it out in front of A Bao.

Today's polo match, under the vast blue sky, the grass is as green as satin, and all the ladies and gentlemen in the pavilion are painted clearly and every detail is visible.

A Bao, who was originally still thinking about the affairs of Su Fengyue and Wu Su, was moved when he saw her and Xuanyuan Fengran in this "Polo Picture".

"It's a good painting, it deserves a reward."

As he spoke, A Bao signaled Lu Lang to give the painter one hundred taels of gold.

The painter thanked him immediately.

This interruption, coupled with the fact that Princess Xiao was very good at socializing, in just a few words she managed to turn the topic of conversation in the room to the rouge, powder, and silk patterns that were currently popular in the imperial capital.

But Po was full of hesitation.

How can I meet Su Fengyue alone?

Suddenly, a little servant quietly handed Lu Lang a small note, and Lu Lang passed it on.

He took the note and opened it. The handwriting was very familiar to Abao.

It belongs to Zhang Lanheng.

He invited her to meet him in the bamboo forest and stream behind the villa.

A Bao looked towards the table where Old Madam Zhang was sitting, and sure enough, Zhang Lanheng was gone.

Old Madam Zhang was busy twisting her red sandalwood beads, oblivious to the people around her.

Holding the small note, Abao hesitated, seeing him? Not seeing him?

Amid the laughter and joy of the whole room, the image of Zhang Lanheng's alienated and helpless appearance came to my mind.

A Bao clenched the small note and frowned: Ruo, was Zhang Lanheng forced to ask for help?

Thinking of this, Abao found an excuse to get up and pretended to go to the bathroom in the back hall.

The bamboo forest on the back hill of the villa is lush and green, with rustling leaves. It rained heavily in the past few days, and Abao even saw small bamboo shoots breaking through the soil in the forest.

The young bamboo shoots are showing their pointed tips, and spring butterflies are fluttering above them.

As the breeze blew through the bamboo forest, Abao saw Zhang Lanheng standing beside the gurgling stream.

Hearing her footsteps, Zhang Lanheng slowly turned around.

Zhang Lanheng was also surprised that Abao was actually willing to come and see him with just a small note.

A Bao chuckled gently, "Zhang Shaoqing, long time no see."

Hearing this, Zhang Lanheng bowed and saluted, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

It was the first time that I heard "Her Royal Highness" from Zhang Lanheng's mouth.

A Bao was actually a little uncomfortable.

She asked curiously, "Zhang Shaoqing invited me here. Is there something?"

After a moment's silence, Zhang Lanheng approached Abao and took out a jade button from his sleeve.

"Old Caitou said that this thing was left behind by Her Royal Highness the Princess at the West Pin Camp."

The old doctor in the Xipin Camp was the one who accompanied Zhang Lanheng when he arrived at Bailu Academy and prepared medicine for his recovery due to his poor health.

After the incident at Jinghu Cottage, Zhang Lanheng was urgently summoned back home by Old Master Zhang.

The old doctor then left the Bailu Academy, and later, by some strange coincidence, he entered the government office in the imperial capital.

Zhang Lanheng explained: "Old Caitou came to me and asked me to help return this item to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

A Bao's eyes sparkled, and he couldn't hide his joy as he said, "I thought it was completely lost."

The affairs of the West Pin Camp were chaotic and complicated. These days, she was busy dealing with old Ruxin and handling the aftermath, and she did not notice that the Ping'an Jade Buckle was lost.

When she had some free time, she wanted to look for it, but couldn't find it.

The lost and recovered jade buckle lay in his palm. A Bao looked at it carefully. The exquisitely crafted jade buckle was pure and transparent.

Speaking of which, when Song Yaoxing stabbed her abdomen with the silver hairpin, although she was injured and lost blood, she was not hurt in any vital parts.

They all relied on this jade button, which was used to pray for peace and ward off evil, to block the attack.
