In the east courtyard, beside the courtyard wall, another patch of yellow roses grew. The petals were light yellow, like frost, and the texture was as soft as mutton-fat jade.

The breeze blows, and the petals tremble slightly. The fragrance is cool, subtle, and slightly sweet.

Qingqing picked a few flowers, put them into a bunch, and ran over excitedly: "Princess, I will put some in your room."

Lin Wanwan looked at the flowers, took one out of the bunch, and looked at Qingqing beside her: "Qingqing, pick a few more and hang the roses upside down in a cool and ventilated place."

When Qingqing heard this, she frowned and asked, "Why are you hanging the flowers upside down?"

Lin Wanwan: "To make dried flowers."

Qingqing blinked and suddenly remembered the rumor. She was the same age as Lin Wanwan and had grown up with her. She naturally knew the importance of reputation to a woman.

She was simple-minded. Seeing her own princess still thinking about making dried flowers? She couldn't help but say:

"Princess, now people are saying that you went to Hongyue Tower and earned two hundred taels of silver by selling your body. They also say that you are using your sex life to please others..."

Nanny Li glared at her and immediately blocked her mouth: "Stop talking! Just follow the princess's orders."

Lin Wanwan's eyes lingered on the yellow rose in her hand, and she seemed not to hear what the two of them were saying.

Lin Wanwan returned to the corridor, sat sideways on a wooden rocking chair, and rocked leisurely.

In fact, she was not deaf, so those rumors naturally reached her ears.

The West Courtyard was very quiet, and it was easy to imagine that they were there to deal with these rumors.

But for Lin Wanwan, rumors are just rumors after all, she doesn't care. Isn't it just on the hot search list? If it were in modern times, how many stars don't have some scandals?

What she cared more about was the [System Panel]. It was already afternoon, why hadn't any new tasks been released yet?

How can you realize your ambitions when your health is so low?

She didn't want to have to rely solely on contact with men to extend her life.

Qingqing pouted, picked up a bamboo basket, and went to pick some yellow roses.

Lin Wanwan looked at the flower in her hand again and again, leaned in to smell it, then pinched the flower shorter, put it between her ears, closed her eyes and lay down.

But after thinking about it, I can't just sit around without any tasks.

Rumors are rumors, but after all, those people in the West Courtyard didn’t want to bully her, but Princess An Ning.

Thinking of this made her very unhappy, and she had to think carefully about how to vent the anger of the original owner. Feeling sleepy, she got up and went into the inner room to take a nap.

at the same time.

The summer sun is hot.

Several magnificent and gorgeous carriages, surrounded by a group of servants, stopped in front of the princess's mansion.

A fat man got out of the carriage, wearing an exquisite jade crown on his head. The jade was warm and transparent, and inlaid with several pigeon blood rubies, which made him look even more noble.

She was wearing a dark purple robe made of the finest silk, embroidered with gold thread, which shone brightly in the sun.

The gatekeepers outside the princess's mansion did not dare to neglect him when they saw him. One of them hurried in to report, and the other led him into the mansion.

The servant didn't know that the visitor was Prince Yong, so he wanted to lead him to the west courtyard as he had done in the past.

Unexpectedly, Prince Yong said, "Take me to see Princess An Ning."

Upon hearing this, the servant did not dare to offend him and had to lead him to the east courtyard.

Upon hearing the news, Ye Zhaobo, Wang Yinyi and Ye Sisi from the West Courtyard hurried to the gate of the East Courtyard.

In full view of the crowd, a dozen servants behind Prince Yong quickly and orderly brought in a dazzling array of soft sedan chairs, silks, satins, jewellery, antiques and rare treasures.

When Ye Zhaobo and his party arrived at the West Courtyard, Prince Yong had already walked through the corridor and was about to enter the East Courtyard. He smiled and walked forward: "I didn't know that the distinguished guest was here..."

As soon as he stepped into Kyoto City, Prince Yong learned that Princess An Ning was promiscuous and had a reputation for having affairs with multiple men in Hongyue Tower.

After some investigation, he learned that Princess An Ning was living such a difficult life, so he hurried to the East Courtyard of the Princess's Mansion.

Now that I saw with my own eyes that Ye Zhaobo's family had taken over the magpie's nest, I couldn't help but feel angry.

"Hmph." When Prince Yong saw the person coming, his face turned pale. He shook his sleeves and went straight to the East Courtyard.

Wang Yinyi saw that this person had an extraordinary status, but he was also very unfamiliar to her. She tugged at the corner of Ye Zhaobo's clothes and said, "Master, who is that person?"

Ye Zhaobo stood there in a daze, thinking carefully:

It is Prince Yong, Lin Zhiguang.

Prince Yong had no power in the court. He was the eldest son of the previous emperor and the younger brother of Princess Jinghe. He could have succeeded to the throne, but because of his special status, he was not allowed to enter the capital for the past 20 years.

Now that the political situation is stable, Prince Yong was allowed to return to Kyoto two days ago."

Wang Yinyi looked at the rewards that were continuously sent to the East Courtyard like water, and felt sour in her heart: "Humph, so it's nothing great. Although Prince Yong's clothes are extremely luxurious, he has no real power in the capital."

"That's right." Ye Sisi agreed, her eyes full of jealousy and resentment.

Wang Yinyi seemed to have noticed Ye Sisi's thoughts. She looked at the maids following behind her and urged them, "What are you looking at? Go to work. What's so good about Lin Wanwan? She's not even as good as one of Sisi's fingers."

The maids didn't dare to say anything and quickly dispersed.

Ye Zhaobo remained silent and did not dare to leave. After all, he was Yongwang Lin Zhiguang.

Although he has no power or influence, he is a member of the royal family after all.

At the same time, in the distance, the maids were also discussing privately, and envy was revealed in their eyes.

"Princess An Ning of the East Courtyard is finally no longer bullied. The prince's attire is so luxurious and luxurious." Several maids in the corner whispered, their eyes full of envy.

"That's right. The prince is so generous to her! Just look at the prince's clothes and accessories. Every piece is priceless." Another servant nodded in agreement.

"Stop talking and get back to work." An older servant sighed with emotion and waited for the maids to leave. "Ah, I hope Princess An Ning can live a happy life."

Entering the East Courtyard, Prince Yong's heart suddenly tightened at the sight he saw.

The courtyard looked dilapidated. The pond in the garden had dried up and the flowers that once bloomed in all their splendor had long since withered, leaving only a wasteland.

The railings of the corridor were broken and crooked. Walking on them made people worry that they would collapse at any time.

The entire courtyard was overgrown with weeds, as if it had been forgotten by time.

Anger instantly ignited in Prince Yong's eyes, and his heart was filled with sorrow for what had happened to the princess and resentment towards the people in the West Courtyard.

Nanny Li in the courtyard was the first to see the newcomer. She dropped her broom in shock and hurried over to greet him, "Prince Yong...Prince Yong...can you return to Kyoto?"

Prince Yong said in a deep and powerful voice: "Where is Princess An Ning?"

"In the room."

As Nanny Li spoke, she called Qingqing, who was cutting yellow roses, and said, "Quick, go to the inner room and call the princess, and tell her that Prince Yong is here."

Upon hearing this, Qingqing quickly packed up the yellow roses that had not yet been cut and ran into the inner room.

Soon, Qingqing finished combing Lin Wanwan's hair and came out to meet the guests.

In the reception room, Prince Yong paced back and forth, waiting for a long time. He saw Lin Wanchan wearing a moon-white long skirt with a few elegant plum blossoms embroidered on the corners of the skirt. Her figure was light, like a willow in the wind, weak but strong.

Her black and shiny black hair was casually tied into a bun with a white jade hairpin inserted in it, and the rest of her hair fell behind her head like a waterfall.

It would have been bad enough if the courtyard was dilapidated, but even the clothes they wore were so simple that Prince Yong felt very distressed.

Lin Wanwan looked at him with a sense of aloofness and alienation.

The original owner had no impression of the person in front of him.

There is no prompt from the system.

Lin Wanwan: ...

Well, the system doesn’t think this guy is handsome.

Lin Wanwan asked calmly, "Prince Yong?"

Prince Yong nodded, walked quickly to her, and said sincerely and with a guilty tone: "An Ning, I am Princess Jingyue's brother, your uncle."

【System prompt: A handsome man has been detected.】

[Handsome man information:]
