A Ru sneered lightly, "If you are really afraid of offending others, just take care of your own style. If you fall into trouble, who can you blame? Besides, if you really capture someone, the general will come naturally. What are you afraid of?"
Tong Mao curled his lips and said, "If you catch someone, you don't have to be afraid. But if you can't, it's the lower official's responsibility."
Aru looked at him and said coldly: "Master Tong, your people are squatting at the foot of the mountain. When you see someone going up the mountain, unless they die on the mountain, they will always come down. How can you not catch them?"
"Aren't there still dense forests?" Tong Mao said.
Ah Ru curled her lips, "It's best for them to come down from the dense forest."
Tong Mao was startled, "Girl, have you made plans in the dense forest?"
Aru raised her eyes and said impatiently: "Why are you asking so many questions? Just go ahead and do your business. Go and send more people. Once you find that the Crown Princess is among the people coming down the mountain, give the signal immediately.
The general will naturally rush over."
Tongmao had no choice but to resign and leave.
As soon as they arrived at the courtyard, they saw Princess An coming towards them. Princess An was acquainted with Scholar Tong's wife and occasionally interacted with her, so she recognized Scholar Tong Mao. Seeing him appear here, she was a little surprised and asked, "Why is Mr. Tong here?"
Tong Mao took a deep breath in his heart and said calmly: "I have seen the princess. I wanted to find the prince, but I didn't know that the prince was not there."
After saying that, he left.
Princess An was a little surprised. The prince must be away. Who in the court didn't know that the prince was in the military camp? He seemed to be resentful. What was going on?
She looked in the direction of the study. She and the adults came out of the study just now. Was Ah Ru in there?
She then led the maid up the stone steps and opened the door to the study. As expected, she saw A Ru sitting on a chair. She had her eyes closed. When the door was pushed open, she suddenly opened her eyes and looked at An Ru with sharp eyes.
Princess, "Why are you here?"
Princess An was frightened by the coldness in her eyes, and murmured subconsciously: "I saw Mr. Tong coming out of the study. He...how did he come?"
Aru Leng said: "Of course he is here for business. From now on, the princess will come to the study less often, so as not to meet people she shouldn't see. Go back."
Princess An was a soft-tempered person. Seeing her stern expression, she didn't want to think about the conflict, so she stopped asking. Just as she was about to turn around, she heard the maid say angrily: "How can you talk to the princess like this? The prince is not in the palace, and the palace is not in the palace."
So I regard the princess as my respecter, you are just a counselor, not even a concubine, how can you be rude to the princess?"
Aru's eyes suddenly turned cold, he stood up and came to Princess Ji, glanced at Princess Ji, then slapped the maid in the face, and said sternly: "How dare you, a slave like you, teach me a lesson? Fortunately, the princess knows that I am
You don’t want to be the wife of this inner court, not to mention the side concubine, even if you are my main concubine, this slap will teach you to think through your words later and stop spitting out all the nonsense and scolding me.
It doesn't matter, don't lose the princess's face."
The maid covered her face in grievance. Seeing the peaceful look on her princess's face, she felt so angry that she could only keep silent.
Princess An was very unhappy in her heart. Ah Ru's words seemed to be a lesson to the girl, but in fact, she was told to her. It meant that as long as she was willing to be the woman beside the prince, she would not be a side concubine, but a main concubine.
She, the so-called Princess An, has to step aside.
But remembering that the prince had mentioned that Ah Ru was of great use, and the prince was not here, so as not to offend her, he actually said to her: "This servant is ignorant, so don't be angry. I will come over less often."
Aru raised her chin slightly, the curve was cold and cold, and her eyes were full of coldness and contempt, "Princess, go slowly!"
Princess An turned around and left, and the maid chased after her, saying with great grievance: "Princess, why did you let her bully you? She clearly told you those words. She covets your position as Princess An."
Princess An smiled softly and said, "She can covet her, and it will be done if the prince doesn't want to."
