There are three levels of stairs in the house, and various books are neatly placed on all sides. There are more than 20 rows of bookshelves that are taller than a person.
Chu Jiaoli picked up a book on the bookshelf next to her and flipped through a few pages, a hint of unexpected joy flashed across her eyes.
Different from the confusion just now, she likes to read books to increase her knowledge in her free time. Even in the library of the Imperial College, she has never seen so many books.
She couldn't help but open her mouth, and walked around a few times in the room filled with the aroma of books, her eyes seemed to be twinkling.
"Thank you...Thank you, Your Highness..."
Beigong Tengxiao raised the corners of his lips: "Like it?"
Chu Jiaoli nodded uncontrollably, walked up to him, stood up on tiptoes and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugged him in his warm embrace, took a deep breath and said, "I like it."
Beigong Tengxiao raised his hand and touched the top of her head lovingly, and said: "If you are idle and bored in the future, you can read here. I have also moved the books in the library in the palace here. What are you thinking about?"
All unique and unique copies can be read at any time."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli raised her eyebrows slightly and asked slightly questioningly: "No conditions?"
Bei Gong Tengxiao had always convinced her that she loved reading, and always used some of the rare books that she missed to coax her into making deals with him. Sometimes he would go boating on the lake with him, or dance with him, and he would also give him a kiss as a condition.
Even some bad things that can’t be tolerated in daily life...
Now, he would give it all to her without leaving anything behind?
A flash of amusement flashed across Beigong Tengxiao's eyes, he lowered his head and gently tapped her ear, whispering hoarsely: "You think of me so badly?"
Chu Jiaoli seemed to have thought of some memories, her cheeks flushed, she bit her lip, and whispered: "Your Highness, sometimes, is very bad..."
"Okay, then I will be a bad guy again," he picked her up with his strong and strong arms, looked at her blushing face, and said, "I have given you so many treasures, and today I will give you all my money and profits at once.
I'm asking you to get it back."
"Oh my God, that's too... don't do it! Your Highness, please spare your life!" With a cry of tenderness, the maids bowed their heads and retreated wisely.
Prince Ling's Mansion.
"Let me out! I want to see the emperor!" A hysterical cry sounded particularly strange in the magnificent palace.
The surrounding maids seemed to be surprised and stood there with their heads lowered. The door of the Concubine's Palace was open, but there were two gatekeepers on both sides of the door, holding unsheathed knives crossed in front of the door.
No matter how hard Xiang Yini pushed and struggled, the guard remained motionless.
"Let me out! I want to see the emperor! Why should the emperor treat my father like this! Beigong Tengxiao is a bastard! Bastard!"
Hearing this, the guard's face changed with shock, and he suddenly broke into a cold sweat. It seemed that Beigong Qianling was right to order them to lock up Xiang Yini. Xiang Yini had become so crazy and spoke so freely. It was really shocking.
Afraid...
Beigong Qianling has not been to the Princess Palace for a long time. Ever since Beigong Tengxiao resumed his status as the crown prince, he has been worried and timid every day. He has not said a word in the court, even though his power has collapsed.
I don’t dare to protest even half a word.
Regarding Xiang Yini, Beigong Tengxiao declared to the people in the house that she was insane and that all her remarks could not be true. If even a word was spread outside the house, cutting off the tongue would be a light thing, but cutting off the head would be serious.
Upon closer inspection, under the skirt of the maid standing beside Xiang Yini was a pair of trembling and limp legs. After many years in the palace, they had never seen anyone who dared to gossip like Xiang Yini. I'm afraid it was...
Her mouth alone is going to kill the entire Prince Ling Mansion...
The next day, it was cloudless and sunny.
Beigong Tengxiao went to court early in the morning. In the Biluo Palace, Chu Jiaoli was half-lying on the beauty's couch, embroidering flowers leisurely. A pair of small white hands carefully appeared in her field of vision, holding a plate of peach blossom cakes. p>
She raised her eyes and saw the seven-year-old Xiao Baixue looking at her timidly, saying in a childish voice: "Mother, eat, have some snacks."
Bai Xue took off the dirty dust on her body, revealing her original fair face. She was wearing the clothes of a maid, looking white and clean, and her agile appearance was endearing.
As Jingyue's apprentice, Qingshan is the secret guard of the future prince's palace. Now he lives and trains in the prince's palace. The parents of the two brothers live nearby and asked Chu Jiaoxing to arrange to work in the Shuxiang family.
Bai Xue clings to her brother, and Chu Jiaoli doesn't mind keeping an extra pair of chopsticks in the house. Bai Xue is well-behaved and sensible, neither crying nor making trouble, which makes her very fond of her. Although she is a maid in name only, she is still a seven-year-old child after all.
She will not be given overly tiring work.
Chu Jiaoli showed a gentle smile, put down the embroidery shed, and said: "You can have a piece too."
Bai Xue opened her big round eyes, pursed her lips and shook her head.
Chu Jiaoli's smile was a little helpless. She stood up slowly. The pain in her body made her frown slightly, and her movements became slower. She picked up a piece of pastry from the plate and tasted it carefully.
Seeing that she seemed to be feeling unwell, Bai Xue put the pastry plate on the table and said with a smile: "Mother, are you feeling uncomfortable? Bai Xue will give you a massage."
As soon as she finished speaking, those clumsy but hard-working little hands helped her beat her legs.
Chu Jiaoli glanced at her attentive face and found it a little funny. She gently raised the corners of her lips and said, "Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?"
Bai Xue, who was instantly exposed, pursed her lips and asked timidly: "Mother, Bai Xue has a sister who was abducted by human traffickers when she was a child and moved to Beiming. I heard last year that she is now working as a maid in Beiming Palace.
, can the empress... let Bai Xue and sister meet?"
Chu Jiaoli raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "This is easy. Where does your sister work? Do you know?"
"Hmm..." Bai Xue thought seriously for a moment, frowned tightly, thought for a while, and said, "It seems to be called... what is the yang... palace... it is the yang character for sun."
Hearing this, Chu Jiaoli frowned. She had not seen many palaces with the word "Yang" in them. The queen's name was Xigong Qinyang. Since she married Beiming, the palace had built Muyang Palace for her.
It was the residence of Beigong Tengxiao when he was in the imperial palace, and Muyang Palace was named after Qinyang of the West Palace.
Xigong Qinyang is the noble princess of Xiyu Kingdom. Beiming naturally pays attention to it. There should be no palace names with the same name as hers in the palace...
Chu Jiaoli was silent for a moment. Could it be that she was really from Muyang Palace? After Beigong Tengxiao moved into the Prince's Mansion, the people from Muyang Palace also followed him. If this is the case, Bai Xue's longing for the sister she wants to find will be in the Prince's Mansion.
Fuzhong?
She asked with a hint of hope: "What's your sister's name?"
"Purple Forest."
Hearing these two words, Chu Jiaoli's heart froze. She stared at her in shock and said, "Zilin? Fourteen years old, with a red mole on the index finger of his right hand. Gu Zilin?"
