Chapter 512: What kind of magic potion did you give me?
"Was that the Crown Princess just now?" Master Jiu couldn't help but ask in surprise.
In Jiu Ye's opinion, the Crown Princess is a person who never shows her emotions and is extremely terrifying.
Moreover, when sitting with her, she always behaved like a Crown Princess, not even slacking off at family dinners. It was truly suffocating; whenever she was around, I felt exhausted.
When he knew the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were coming, Jiu Ye was already holding his breath for Wen Jiu. Even sitting next to the Crown Princess was unbearable.
Now, following Fourth Brother, he finally sent all the guests away, and then he rushed back to see Fourth Sister-in-law, intending to rescue her.
Who would have thought that when I came out, I would find Sister-in-law No. 4 and the Crown Princess holding hands and talking like good sisters.
Jiu Ye was really shocked by the scene in front of him. Could this be a fake Crown Princess?
"Don't be afraid." Seeing that Wenjiu seemed frightened, the Fourth Master jumped and rubbed her back, then asked hesitantly:
"Have you...been wronged?"
The Fourth Master actually didn't expect that the Crown Prince would bring the Crown Princess with him.
Speaking of it, the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess has never been very good, and the Crown Prince rarely takes the Crown Princess with him when he goes out. However, sometimes he cannot go against the Emperor's wishes.
When he visited today, the Fourth Master noticed that his Second Brother wasn't very cheerful. The Crown Princess beside him, on the other hand, was always smiling.
The Fourth Master took a look and guessed that it was probably the Emperor who asked his Second Brother to bring the Crown Princess out together again?
So, after congratulating me, my second brother said goodbye to me and even reminded me not to tell the Crown Princess inside. He then just turned around and left.
After hearing the Crown Prince's instructions, the Fourth Master naturally felt it was not appropriate to tell the Crown Princess.
When Princess Kang was leaving, she mentioned that the Crown Princess and Jiu'er were always together, and the Fourth Master became worried again.
After finally seeing off the guests, he wanted to hurry and find some wine, but he didn't expect that the Crown Princess had stayed until the end.
After all, apart from her brothers, she was the last guest to leave. Seeing how the Crown Princess and Jiu'er were joking just now, the Fourth Master also had a strange look on his face.
I guess the Crown Princess shouldn't be in any trouble, right?
After hearing this, Wen Jiu smiled and said, "How could I be wronged? The Crown Princess is very caring towards Jiu'er and even said that she would come to the mansion to cook a meal together some other day."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around them widened their eyes, obviously looking incredulous.
"Sister-in-law, what kind of magic potion did you give the Crown Princess? Why is she so easy to talk to today?"
The Third Master looked at Wenjiu with suspicion. He always heard his wife say that the Crown Princess was mean and difficult to approach. She liked to make things difficult for people and set rules for her sisters-in-law. Why did she become so kind when she was in front of Wenjiu?
"Ah?" Wen Jiu scratched his head in confusion: "Didn't the Fourth Master ask the Crown Princess to help look after me?"
The Fourth Master was silent for a moment, then nodded. Actually, he did say that. It was just a polite remark when Second Brother and the Crown Princess entered the room. He hadn't expected the Crown Princess to actually go backstage to take care of Jiu'er.
Wen Jiu added, "Today, we are all grateful for the help of the Crown Princess, and yes, the Princess of Kang. I really should prepare a gift for them later."
As he spoke, Wenjiu couldn't help but glance at the Third Master. After hesitating for a moment, he didn't mention the matter of the Third Lady.
It is not a gentleman's behavior to complain behind someone's back, but I still have to tell the Fourth Master about it.
"Sister-in-law Si, the thousand-layer pastry you served last today is very good. Do you have any more? Can you give me two more pieces?" Master Shi looked for an opportunity for a long time and finally found a gap. He immediately ran to Wen Jiu and said.
Wen Jiu smiled when he heard this: "I think I still have some left. Can I ask my servant to bring some back to you?"
"Hey? Sister-in-law Four, you can't be partial to one over the other. If you've brought some for the Tenth Master, can you also bring some back for me?" The Ninth Master immediately threw the matter of the Crown Princess aside and couldn't help but come forward to ask.
This stirred up a hornet's nest. The other gentlemen all praised Wenjiu's food for being delicious and insisted on taking some back with them.
Wenjiu simply asked Liusu and the others to go back and take a look. If there were any delicious snacks or foods that the gentlemen liked, he would bring some back for them.
Soon, each of them had a lunch box.
"Haha, no wonder the Crown Princess is also good friends with Fourth Sister-in-law. With Fourth Sister-in-law's ability in making snacks, I can't put on a stern face even if it were me." The Thirteenth Master took the food box and couldn't help shaking his head.
Regardless of past and present lives, this Crown Princess was always very dedicated to her duties. In the words of the Emperor, she was worthy of being the Queen Mother of the Qing Dynasty. Unfortunately, my second brother never ascended to the throne, and their relationship wasn't very good either.
The second sister-in-law had been in the palace for many years, but she only gave birth to a daughter and then had no place to stay. Even the crown prince did not stay at the crown princess's place for more than ten years, and the two of them had even grown tired of each other.
Despite such a decline, the second sister-in-law still sat firmly in the position of Crown Princess.
Even the emperor's four concubines were polite to her, and the empress dowager praised her highly.
Even in the emperor's later years, when Concubine De and Concubine Yi were in charge of the affairs of the harem, people would lament that they were not as good as the Crown Princess of that time.
Even after Fourth Brother ascended the throne and Fourth Sister-in-law became the Queen, they would often compare Fourth Sister-in-law with the Crown Princess when she was in charge of palace affairs. Everyone in the palace sighed.
But it's true that the fourth sister-in-law's skills are much worse than the second sister-in-law's. After she took over the palace affairs, there was chaos for a while.
At the time, she was so focused on suppressing the Li family and the newly promoted Nian family that she even neglected to organize the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. It was said that someone was killed on the birthday banquet, and if Fourth Brother hadn't suppressed the matter, who knows what kind of chaos would have arisen.
Thirteen sometimes thought that if his fourth brother had married a woman like the Crown Princess, he would have had less hardship.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be stunned. When I thought about it carefully, at this time in my previous life, my fourth brother was being misunderstood and his life was very difficult.
But today, he has been granted the title of Prince and is full of vigor and vitality.
If we were to say the biggest variable around Fourth Brother, it would be...
Sister-in-law Si!
After figuring this out, Thirteen felt a sudden pang of relief in his heart.
He couldn't help but look at Wenjiu twice again. At this time, Wenjiu had a curved eyebrow and very common clothes on her body, which made her look breathtakingly beautiful, and even had a bit of charm in it.
