There's something wrong with the lonely princess

At that moment, Xie Yiyan was so angry that he stood up directly, if he was not still on the boat, he would have gone berserk right now.

Pei Zhao looked at the obviously angry Crown Princess, and wondered, "Don't you not like the Crown Prince? The boudoir is lonely, and you don't like him. If the Empress doesn't win you over soon, something will happen."

"You are sitting on the high position of the crown princess, the only regret is this little thing, as long as you don't betray the crown prince, you can play here as you please, and you can have any pleasure you want, so that you can be a crown princess with peace of mind, the best of both worlds Why do you seem to, "

Pei Zhao couldn't continue, and his voice was much lower: "I didn't say this, don't look at me like that, anyway, that's what they mean, they are trying to win over you to be a princess with peace of mind, women, can't If you are left out, the crown prince can't satisfy you, so you can find another way to go to the head office."

"Is this what the empress means?" Xie Yiyan calmed down slowly, a layer of sweat broke out on his back, and he just felt cold at the moment.

"At the beginning, you didn't want to marry the prince. You hanged yourself and drank medicine. The city was full of disturbances. The queen was worried that you and the prince would not be able to live on, so she came to discuss with the princess. That's why I came up with this idea." Pei Zhao looked at it. He glanced at the crown prince: "Or, you are in love with the crown prince again now, that's why you don't want to?"

Xie Yiyan glanced at her, and warned: "Miss Pei, please mind your own business. You tell me this because you are afraid that I will fall in love with you. If you think too much, I am not interested in you."

"Then who are you interested in?" Pei Zhao spoke quickly, looking at Xie Yiyan with vigilance, as if he was afraid that Xie Yiyan would snatch something away.

Xie Yiyan gritted her teeth: "I'm not interested in any women here! Don't worry!"

Pei Zhao sighed: "That will be troublesome. If I can't do it, the princess will definitely find someone else, always find someone who can interest you, and their attitude is that you haven't tasted it before. Holding it like this, once you have tasted it and know what happiness is, you won't have to be a man."

"you shut up!"

The boat swayed, Xie Yiyan couldn't stand still, Pei Zhao wanted to help him, but Xie Yiyan dodged it, he wanted to go outside to get some air, but Pei Zhao stopped him again.

"I've explained so much for you, so please help me too." The girl's face was a little stiff: "Don't go out, can you just sit on the boat for a while?"

"Why?" Xie Yiyan said with a cold face, "I said before, I'm not interested in you."

"I, I have a sweetheart, and I want her to care about me." Pei Zhao clenched the fan tightly in his hand: "I'm different from them. I didn't come here because I was lonely. I was looking for someone, but she, she didn't." Just ignore me, she saw me when I got on the boat just now, and gave me another look, please sit a little longer, I want her to misunderstand."

"But I don't want to!!!"

Xie Yiyan took a deep breath, and when she turned around, she saw Pei Zhao's obviously lonely expression. She paused when she stepped forward, and reminded her: "It's wrong for you to do this, and you and I will be humiliated. If you love that People, why don’t you tell her frankly? Go to court her, go after her, isn’t it dirty to use these methods?”

"Let the boat dock, I'm going to see the princess."

Pei Zhao made him hesitate and didn't know what to do. After the boat docked, the two went ashore and met Su Yi again. At this moment, Su Yi was accompanied by a girl. Xie Yiyan seemed to have noticed something and turned her head. I saw Pei Zhao next to me looking at Su Yi, but Su Yi had already led her away.

Xie Yiyan: ...Okay, I understand, no wonder I told him so much when I came up, that's why.

Outside the Spring Garden, Li Shengjing's carriage stopped at the door, and Bai Li replied to the crown prince with a troubled expression on his face: "The people inside said that the banquet will not end and they cannot leave, and they won't let me in. Your Highness, what should we do? Can we still pick up the crown prince?" Is it? They said that after the banquet is over, the princess will be sent back to the residence."

Li Shengjing lifted the curtain of the car, glanced at the closed gate, and lowered his eyes: "Let's go home first."

As soon as the carriage moved, Li Shengjing said again: "Stop, find an inconspicuous place and wait for the banquet to finish."

Bai Li didn't dare to ask more questions, so he quickly followed his advice.

In the Spring Garden, Xie Yiyan was furious at first, but later she felt it was ridiculous. After resigning from Pei Zhao, she went back to the Eldest Princess to bid farewell. He really couldn't stay in this place for a moment.

Qiuyue was guarding outside, and when she saw him, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried up to meet him: "Prince Princess,"

Xie Yiyan raised her hand: "You don't need to say anything. I will forget everything I heard and saw here today. We just came to an ordinary banquet, understand?"

Qiuyue nodded: "Understood."

"Especially to the prince." Xie Yiyan emphasized again: "Don't reveal a single word."

Seeing him coming back by himself, the eldest princess waved her hand to make all the music officials and dancers on the side retreat, and then asked, "Did you see Ah Zhao?"

"See you." Xie Yiyan didn't intend to say more: "Auntie, it's getting late, Yan'er's body is a little bit unbearable, and I want to go back first, I wonder if it's convenient."

"Don't like it?" The eldest princess didn't pick up on his leaving: "Auntie thought you wouldn't like Su Yi's kind, and it just so happened that Ah Zhao came over today, so I asked her to accompany you. Why doesn't Ah Zhao like it? Azhao is handsome, and he is from the family of Marquis Wu for generations. He was raised like a boy since he was a child. Why, don’t you like it? Why don’t you try it first?”

Xie Yiyan: "No need!"

Refused bluntly, Xie Yiyan eased her tone again, and said again: "Aunt, Yan'er and the prince have a very strong relationship, and they can't let others go in their hearts and eyes. Aunt can't be like this."

"Oh?" The eldest princess seemed to be interested, sat up and looked at Xie Yiyan's determined face, and said, "But why did I hear that you don't want to marry the prince, and you cried, made trouble, hanged yourself before marriage, and took poison Did you throw yourself into the river? If it wasn’t for the shallow water in the mansion, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have the chance to sit here and chat with my aunt, right?”

"There are rumors." Xie Yiyan clenched her fists tightly, her nails dug into her palms, and the slight pain kept him vigilant: "My aunt also knows that those people want to watch jokes when they have nothing to do, and Yan'er only married because he admired the prince. The prince, there is no such thing as what my aunt said, after marriage, I have a very good relationship with the prince Qin Se and Ming, so Aunt Lao will worry about it."

"The relationship is very good?" The eldest princess didn't believe it: "You have never had any contact with the prince, and he didn't get close to you after marriage. Does this mean that you have a good relationship?"

"Aunt." Xie Yiyan raised her head: "Aunt is careful, how does Aunt know if the crown prince is close to me?"

"Furthermore," Xie Yiyan simply compiled it to the end: "My mother brought me into the palace when I was young. Yan'er has been acquainted with the prince since then. The prince and Yan'er have known each other since childhood. They grew up like childhood sweethearts. Given our age, the two of us are naturally in agreement, I don’t know where my aunt heard some rumors, and she did such an absurd act, but it’s only once, never an example!”

"It's getting late, Yan'er will come to the mansion to apologize to my aunt another day, and I will leave today."

The eldest princess didn't expect such a result. Looking at the resolute and decisive expression on Xie Yiyan's face, she also thought about whether this matter was done properly, and quickly said: "Alright, I guess it's my aunt who misunderstood you. Since you don't like my place, then Auntie won't keep you any longer, come here and send the princess off."

After leaving the garden, Xie Yiyan's pent-up breath finally dissipated a little. It was getting late, and she reminded Qiuyue: "Remember, don't say anything."

Qiuyue's complexion was not very good either: "Crown Princess, the Prince's carriage is over there, and His Royal Highness is waiting for the Crown Princess."

Sure enough, Xie Yiyan saw the carriage in the prince's mansion, her face looked a little better, and she told Qiuyue again and again: "Be happy, just go to eat, enjoy the singing and dancing, and talk with the eldest princess for a while, and don't talk nonsense about anything else. .”

Qiuyue agreed, and wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything, but the worry in her eyes was even worse, she felt that this matter was not that simple.

"Your Highness? Did Your Highness come to pick me up on purpose?" Xie Yiyan got on the carriage, and saw Li Shengjing reading a book, and when he saw him coming up, he reached out to give him a hand.

Xie Yiyan: "Thank you Your Highness."

"Is everything okay at the banquet?" Li Shengjing put down the book in his hand, and when he asked this question, there was still a little concern on his face.

"Okay, everything is good." Xie Yiyan smiled: "My aunt hired the most famous musician in the capital, and the dishes are also delicious, but I don't know many people, so I only talked to my aunt for a while."

"That's good." Li Shengjing was also relieved: "From now on, the Crown Princess will have nothing to do, so she can come and go often. Auntie's place is lively."

The expression on Xie Yiyan's face froze for a moment, and she quickly packed up again, saying haha: "Then I still want to spend more time with Your Highness at the residence, besides, His Highness wants to teach me how to play chess, so this will send me out. Don't you want to teach?"

"Teaching." Li Shengjing said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "As long as the princess wants to learn."

After going back, they had dinner together as usual, and the atmosphere happened to pull Li Shengjing to play two games of chess before going back to their rooms to rest. Xie Yiyan sat in front of the mirror and took off her makeup.

Seeing Qiuyue behind her hesitate to speak several times, she asked directly: "What exactly do you want to say? You were absent-minded during dinner, just say it, and you can learn to hesitate anytime."

Qiuyue put down the golden hairpin in her hand, thought for a while and said directly: "Have you ever thought about why His Royal Highness is waiting at the gate of the Spring Garden today?"

"Naturally, wait for me." Xie Yiyan didn't think much about it.

Qiuyue said: "His Royal Highness invited the Crown Princess to the banquet. The Empress knows the inside story. What about His Royal Highness? Does he know?"

"What do you mean?"

Qiuyue sighed: "When the crown princess was taken out by the eldest princess, I had a conversation with the maids in the garden. Among the wives who went to the banquet, many of the husbands knew about it, and some of them deliberately took the wife away for their own future. Send it in so that you can cling to powerful women and pave the way for their official careers."

"What the princess has seen and heard today, don't you have any other ideas?" Qiuyue's eyes are full of worry: "This time the princess refused, what if there is a next time? If they really have such thoughts, then the prince Concubine's identity,"

Qiuyue didn't finish her sentence, and Xie Yiyan understood the rest without saying anything.

Qiuyue reminded him: "The fact that His Royal Highness did not get close to the Crown Princess is a secret matter in the boudoir. How did the Eldest Princess know about it? Don't say that the Prince's Mansion is heavily guarded and cannot tolerate any spies. Dongyuan is like an iron barrel." , who spread the news?"

"Impossible!" Xie Yiyan stood up hastily: "He is not that kind of person, he won't do that kind of thing!"

Qiuyue: "It is true that His Royal Highness is ill."

If you have a disease, you can't have intercourse. How long can you keep such a beautiful and beautiful princess guarding the empty boudoir?

Xie Yiyan thought of Pei Zhao's words.

"Men don't care if women play with women, otherwise they wouldn't dare to marry so many women and keep them at home."

"I'm afraid that you Hongxing will go out to find a wild man and betray the prince."

"It not only satisfies you, but also preserves the face of the prince, isn't it?"

Xie Yiyan staggered from the shock, supported the dressing table, and the color on his face faded: "Impossible, he is not that kind of person, he won't do that kind of thing!"

"I'll go find him and ask him!"
