It seems like the weather has gotten hotter in the blink of an eye.
The emperor sat in the palace, took the fan and shook it.
Princess Jin Yao walked in and saw it and rushed forward to grab it: "I'm here to fan my father."
The emperor let her take it away and asked, "What do you want from me?"
"Can't my daughter fulfill her filial piety?" Princess Jin Yao scolded, then smiled, "But my daughter wants to invite a few friends to come and sit in my palace, and I hope my father will allow me."
The emperor said: "Wouldn't it be better for you to go out and play?"
The queen was imprisoned in the cold palace, and the concubine Xian presided over the harem. She was always kind and never meddle in other people's business. Now Princess Jin Yao can come and go freely.
Princess Jin Yao sat down on the side, picked up the fan and continued to shake it gently: "The Queen and Fifth Brother just had an accident, how can I go around to play?"
When mentioning these two people, the emperor's face looked a little ugly, but also a little unnoticeably angry: "Why, who dares to look down on you? If something happens to them, my other children will be in disgrace?"
Although the truth about the punishment of the fifth prince and the queen was hidden, it could not be hidden from the ministers and families of the Manchu Dynasty. They did not know how many true and false royal secrets were circulating outside.
"How could it be?" Princess Jin Yao said, "I can't bear to leave my father. I don't want to go out to play at all, and I don't think it's fun outside at all. I just want to stay with my father at home."
The emperor smiled: "Father, I don't want you to live at home and be an old girl all your life."
Thinking of this, I got angry again, because the marriage between Zhou Xuan and Princess Jin Yao was also gone.
"Father, I just want to play in the palace right now." Princess Jin Yao shook the emperor's arm and suggested happily, "I'll ask Miss Danzhu to come in, and we can play horns for my father. What do you think?"
Chen Danzhu! The emperor snorted in his heart again, but Chen Danzhu has been very honest recently and has not been involved with Zhou Xuan anymore, nor has he run to the palace again.
"Why do you like to play with her?" the emperor complained, "there are so many aristocratic ladies from aristocratic families in the capital."
Princess Jin Yao said: "Because she is a different noble lady from aristocratic family." After saying this, she shook the emperor's arm and begged repeatedly.
The emperor was shaken and wanted to laugh but also felt sad. Alas, the children have grown up and are separated. Let's enjoy more family happiness while our daughter has not grown up yet.
"Okay, I agree, I agree." The emperor smiled, "Stop shaking it, it's dizzying my eyes."
Princess Jin Yao smiled happily and asked with concern: "Father, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with your eyes?"
The emperor stretched out his hand and gently pressed his eyebrows: "It's okay, I'm just a little tired and my eyes are sore."
Princess Jin Yao urged to call the imperial doctor, and the emperor smiled and said: "After reading it, Jin Zhong wishes he could have the imperial doctor come for consultation three times a day."
Princess Jin Yao felt relieved and suggested: "When Miss Danzhu comes, let her show it to your father. Miss Danzhu's medical skills are also very good."
The emperor waved his hands angrily: "If Miss Danzhu doesn't appear in front of me, I won't get sick."
Princess Jin Yao smiled and responded yes.
Of course she knew that the emperor was in a bad mood now, and he would certainly raise eyebrows when seeing Chen Danzhu.
Chen Danzhu didn't want to see the emperor either. Various incidents were happening one after another, and she couldn't interfere in them unscrupulously.
Princess Jin Yao smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'm just too bored if you don't want to see your father. Please come and talk to me."
In addition to Chen Danzhu, Princess Jin Yao also invited Liu Wei and Li Lian.
"There are many fun places in the palace." Chen Danzhu said with a smile, "I will take the princess to play."
All three of them were amused by her. Chen Danzhu, the former noble daughter of Wu, was also very familiar with the palace.
"I'm not familiar with them all. I was young at that time. When I came here occasionally, my sister and I were in the most remote places. We rarely went to beautiful places with lots of people and liveliness, but many remote places are also beautiful." Chen
Danzhu smiled and said, as expected, he was walking in front, "Everyone, come with me. There is a place with rockery and rocks. We can play hide and seek."
It's not like children playing hide and seek. Liu Wei and Princess Jin Yao both laughed, but Li Lian was very interested.
"I really didn't play when I was a child. The wet nurses and maids at home were all looking after me." She said with a smile, "When I came to the princess today, the wet nurses and maids didn't dare to take care of me."
As she spoke, she glanced behind her. Not many maids followed her into the palace, and they all stayed well behind.
Liu Wei and Princess Jin Yao were also interested in what she said and followed her with a smile.
Chen Danzhu was walking east and west in the Imperial Garden when suddenly a woman walked towards him. She walked very slowly, swaying gently like a flower in the early summer garden.
Chen Danzhu stopped.
The woman had already seen her and saluted first: "Miss Danzhu."
Chen Danzhu returned the courtesy: "It's you."
Princess Jinyao, Li Lian and Liu Wei also followed and looked at the woman.
"Ning Ning," Princess Jin Yao said, looking around hurriedly, "Has Third Brother come to the garden?"
There was no figure of the third prince in front, back, left or right.
Ning Ning said: "The Third Highness is busy, and my servant will get him the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor."
She held up a porcelain vase in her hand and showed it to Princess Jin Yao.
Princess Jin Yao smiled: "Then go and tell the third brother to come and play with us when you are done."
When she said this, she glanced at Chen Danzhu, who smiled and said nothing.
Ning Ning responded and walked past them with her head lowered.
Princess Jin Yao took Chen Danzhu's hand and said, "I will see the third brother soon. After the third brother comes back, he is injured and busy, so we don't dare to disturb him."
Chen Danzhu said: "Don't disturb His Highness Third Highness. We already know that he is fine." He led Princess Jinyao forward and stopped continuing the topic. "Come on, let's play here."
Ning Ning stopped and looked back. The women's figures were gone. She looked away without leaving the imperial garden. Instead, she went straight forward and walked to the southeast corner. There was a lake here and a small pavilion in the lake.
From a distance, you can see the figure of a young man sitting inside.
"Have you brought anything?" When he noticed someone approaching, the third prince didn't even raise his head. He asked while reading the letter and raised his other hand.
Ning Ning brought it in response and put the porcelain bottle in the third prince's hand. The third prince opened the porcelain bottle, poured out a pill and took it, his eyes never leaving the table.
Ning Ning took a step back and stood quietly aside, saying nothing.
.....
.....
After playing hide-and-seek and enjoying the royal meal in the imperial garden, Princess Jin Yao's banquet came to an end, but the third prince never came.
"Looks like she's really busy." Princess Jin Yao muttered, leaning forward and asking Chen Danzhu who was sitting next to her, "Shall we go find the third brother? I'm here, but I have to meet him anyway."
Chen Danzhu smiled and said: "There is no rush this time. Your Highness is so busy, and I don't want to disturb him, lest I be scolded by His Majesty again."
Princess Jin Yao smiled: "Are you afraid that His Majesty will scold you?"
"I'm not afraid that His Majesty will scold me." Chen Danzhu said, "Your Majesty must be in a bad mood right now. I don't want to make Your Majesty even more unhappy."
Princess Jin Yao laughed loudly: "You should tell your Majesty this. He will definitely be reluctant to scold you." Although she said this, she did not force Chen Danzhu to stay and stood at the gate of the palace to watch the three people leave.
Accompanied by the palace maid, the three of them walked side by side outside the palace. Liu Wei and Li Lian discussed how to invite the princess in return.
"Forget it now." Chen Danzhu reminded them, "Let's talk about it after the fifth prince and the queen's affairs have been quiet for a while."
The two nodded in understanding, and suddenly saw Chen Danzhu standing still, and there were eunuchs running in front of them, waving to them, "The Crown Prince is here." "The Crown Prince is here."
The prince, Liu Wei, Li Lian, Chen Danzhu, and others were busy standing on the roadside to get out of the way. They saw several eunuchs walking on the palace road carrying a shoulder carriage. The young man sitting on it was dressed in luxurious clothes and his face was very similar to the emperor.
Sensing the gaze here, the prince looked over and Chen Danzhu quickly lowered his head.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince." Princess Jin Yao's maid stepped forward and saluted, "This is the guest invited by the princess."
Chen Danzhu and three others saluted together: "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
The prince nodded to them: "No need to be polite." He looked away and ignored them.
But Chen Danzhu still felt eyes falling on her. She subconsciously raised her head, and a woman standing next to the prince's throne broke into her sight.
This woman is about twenty years old, with a slim and graceful figure, and charming and charming eyebrows.
Seeing Chen Danzhu looking over, she not only did not avoid it, but instead pursed her lips and smiled.
Is this? Chen Danzhu looked at her. The woman didn't speak. She looked back and followed the prince's shoulder.
"Miss Danzhu." The palace maid called softly. "Let's go."
Chen Danzhu responded and was about to turn around when he heard the voice of a woman who had not walked far away.
"Your Highness." Her voice was low and delicate, "That is Miss Danzhu."
Chen Danzhu's body suddenly stopped like a thunderbolt.
The prince turned his head from his shoulder, glanced at her curiously, and then looked away without caring. The woman smiled at her again, raised her hand and lightly scratched her neck, and her lips parted silently.
Chen Danzhu seemed to be back in the small courtyard before. The coldness in her neck was caused by the maid's dagger being close to her.
"Kill her."
said the female voice behind the bead curtain.
It's her! Chen Danzhu's eyes instantly turned red. This time, he finally saw her clearly!
