In Biluo Hall, Xiaoli ran into the house as if she was frightened, and jumped into Chu Jiaoli's arms for comfort.
Chu Jiaotang then walked in. Chu Jiaoli looked at her relieved smile, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "What bad thing did you do with my little pear?"
"When I saw Bai Yueying climbing over the wall, I asked Xiaoli to scare her. Hahaha, the way she fell off the wall was so funny!" Chu Jiaotang laughed, covering her stomach.
"Climb over the wall?" Chu Jiaoli gently stroked the little pear in her arms, narrowed her peach blossom eyes slightly, and thought for a while.
Did she want to escape? In such a hurry?
Although she doesn't like Bai Yueying staying here, after all, she just got married, so it's better to strengthen the guards and keep an eye on her.
Chu Jiaoli rolled her eyes, then raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Tang'er, are you... having trouble finding Concubine Xiang?"
"Not yet, I'll go there later." Chu Jiaotang said vaguely while eating the pastries on the table.
"No." Chu Jiaoli frowned lightly, her expression became a little more serious, and said, "Bai Yueying is free to do whatever you want, but Xiang Yini, you must not cause trouble for her."
Xiang Yini is not a simple person like Bai Yueying. If Chu Jiaotang offended her, she might not even know how she died.
Chu Jiaotang was a little puzzled. She slowly lowered her head, looked at her dangling embroidered shoes, and said: "Third sister, Xiang Yini is a woman who will compete with you for your royal highness, but you are always defending her. Why is this?
?"
Chu Jiaoli was stunned for a moment, defending her? It was ridiculous to think about it. That Xiang Yanni was the woman he hated the most, but in this life he always kept away from her for various reasons...
Is even Chu Jiaotang going to laugh at her?
She bit her lip gently and said: "Tang'er, some things are very complicated and cannot be explained at the moment. As long as you know that I will not do anything without purpose, that is enough."<
/p>
"Oh." Although Chu Jiaotang was a little confused, the thoughtful Chu Jiaoli would never explain too complicated things to her, so she nodded and agreed obediently.
Chu Jiaoli looked at the little pear licking her paws in her arms, lost in thought.
I just hope that I can avoid contact with that beautiful girl as much as possible, and treat each other with courtesy unless I have to.
Yinyi Palace.
Xiang Yini raised her eyebrows slightly and said: "Bai Yueying has become a concubine, and Chu Jiaotang is just a concubine of an imperial merchant, and she is not like the two sisters who were granted the title of princess. How dare she act so arrogantly?
Blatantly provoking her."
Huan Pei whispered: "Chu Jiaotang has always been bold, and there are many people supporting her. She is simply a little bully."
Xiang Yini sighed softly and said, "It's a blessing that she doesn't become His Highness's Crown Princess."
Huan Pei added: "However, after she made a fuss, people from the Duke's Mansion also noticed that Concubine Bai climbed over the wall. I'm afraid there will be no chance to escape next time. If Concubine Bai doesn't leave, it's not a threat.
Has it affected your status?"
Xiang Yini narrowed her eyes slightly and said: "The time has not come yet, she can't leave just yet."
Huan Pei raised his eyebrows in confusion and said, "What if... the time comes?"
Xiang Yini picked up the tea cup, gently pushed the tea leaves away with the tea lid, and said slowly and calmly: "When the time comes, I will naturally help her."
Hearing this, Huanpei nodded knowingly and said: "Empress, what are your plans during the days when His Highness is away? His Highness disappeared on the second day of the wedding. If His Highness is still so cold to you when he comes back, then
But what should we do..."
Xiang Yini sighed softly and said: "Your Highness and Chu Jiaoli are also newly married now. Being too flattering will only lower your self-esteem. It's better to be calm these days, so as not to be caught by her and blow off to Your Highness."
You can stay silent so that His Highness can cause trouble for me."
Hearing this, Huanpei lowered his head and replied: "What you say makes sense."
Half a month later, Biluo Palace.
Zi Lin stepped into the house and said with a smile: "Empress, Your Highness is back!"
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli's beautiful eyes suddenly filled with joy. She put the little pear in her arms aside, then ran out of the house with her skirt in hand.
"Mother, it's cold outside! You haven't brought your Tangbao with you yet!" Zi Lin shouted from behind.
Xiang Yini, who was walking out the door, saw Chu Jiaoli running towards her, raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Huan Pei, it seems like she hasn't left the house in the past half month, right?"
Huan Pei nodded and said: "She is weak and afraid of the cold and doesn't like to move around. I thought you were the only one who would go out to greet her today."
When Beigong Tengxiao stepped into the door, he saw Chu Jiaoli happily running towards him with her skirt in hand.
He raised the corners of his lips, walked quickly towards her, raised her waist with both hands, spun it around in the air, and hugged her tightly.
Chu Jiaoli hugged his neck tightly and whispered in his ear: "Your Highness is finally back."
Beigong Tengxiao hugged the woman in his arms tightly, smiled softly, and whispered: "My beloved concubine is so proactive, should I come out more times? So that you can miss me so much? Stick to me like this.
?"
Chu Jiaoli frowned and said pitifully: "No..."
Hearing this coquettish tone, his heart had already turned into a puddle of sweet water, and he quickly coaxed softly: "Okay, okay, I won't leave, I will always stay with you, okay?"
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli smiled with satisfaction, nodded and said: "Yes."
Beigong Tengxiao grabbed her cold hand and said, "Is it cold?"
Chu Jiaoli pouted slightly, nodded, and said: "It's so cold... If His Highness hadn't come back, I wouldn't have wanted to leave the house."
Beigong Tengxiao smiled fondly, leaned over and hugged her, saying: "I have wronged you dearly, I will carry you into the house to keep warm."
Chu Jiaoli's face was filled with a happy smile, she leaned her head on his warm chest and said: "Okay."
Xiang Yini, who was in the courtyard, exhaled softly, turned around and walked towards Yini Hall, saying: "Let's go back."
Huan Pei frowned in a complicated mood and said: "My Lady, we have come here, why don't you go see His Highness?"
Xiang Yini raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Is this necessary?"
Huan Pei clenched her fingers and said, "But... if I don't follow the etiquette to greet His Highness, will... His Highness be displeased?"
Xiang Yini showed a faint smile that did not reach her eyes and said: "He won't care, so there's no need to waste your efforts."
Hearing this, Huanpei sighed softly.
There was a hint of evil in Xiang Yini's eyes. Although she finally entered the prince's palace, her position as a side concubine was as useless as Bai Yueying's. She couldn't bear it.
She had already suffered too much humiliation when she was in the Hou Mansion. Now, she wants to regain her self-esteem bit by bit.
She slowed down her steps and said, "Recently, the relationship between Dongling and Beiming has been tense, right?"
