When Xiao Juan heard this, her expression suddenly changed: "Princess, why are you going back to that house?"
Ji Ruhua leaned forward and sniffed the flowers in her hand, saying, "That's my home after all, where my blood relatives live."
Hearing this, Xiao Juan pouted and said reluctantly, "Princess, it's because you are too kind that they dare to bully you like that."
Ji Ruhua smiled bitterly and looked at the flowers in her hand in silence.
Kind? No, she is not kind at all.
——
After leaving the Imperial Garden, Ji Xingzhi took the eunuch to the West Palace.
"Your Majesty, are you speaking up for the princess by handing He Wan's matter over to her? Because He Wan spoke rudely to her?" The eunuch couldn't help but ask.
Ji Xingzhi nodded: "Not bad."
"Then why did you give flowers to the princess? Wouldn't that cause the princess to misunderstand?" If the princess liked the emperor, that would be a big mistake.
Ji Xingzhi didn't answer the eunuch. As if suddenly remembering something, she asked, "Eunuch, have you sent anyone to investigate Ruhua's family? And how do her people treat her?"
The eunuch frowned and said, "That's not the case. The princess was brought back to the palace by the Grand Emperor and the Queen Mother themselves, so no one was sent to investigate her background."
"Go check it out. Come with me in a few days." Ji Xingzhi said.
Then, the eunuch was puzzled again: "The emperor wants to go to the princess's house? Why?"
"I want to see what kind of elder could actually teach a girl who cares so much about the family." Ji Xingzhi's mouth curled up slightly, with a strange feeling.
The eunuch held his forehead and thought, looking at the emperor's expression, someone was probably going to be in trouble again.
West Palace.
The West Palace is where concubines, princes, and princesses have lived throughout history. There are many palaces scattered inside, some large, some small, some luxurious, some shabby.
Looking at the numerous palaces and several roads leading to different directions, Ji Xingzhi was confused, and the eunuch also hesitated.
There are so many roads, which way should I go?
Just when I didn't know which way to go, I happened to see a group of people slowly approaching from one of the roads. However, the movement of one of them could not be described as walking, it was clearly running.
She wore a white knee-length skirt, white long boots, and a beautiful white bow headband on her head. As she ran, the wind blew her dress into an arc, and it slowly fell down when she slowed down.
"Little brother" Luo Bai came running and threw himself into Ji Xingzhi's arms. Fortunately, Ji Xingzhi was prepared, otherwise he would have been knocked to the ground.
Holding Luo Bai's shoulders, Ji Xingzhi inserted the pure white flower in her hand into Luo Bai's hair.
At this time, He Wan and several palace maids came over one after another, knelt on the ground and bowed:
"I, a commoner, pay my respects to the Emperor."
"This servant pays homage to the Emperor."
Ji Xingzhi nodded slightly, indicating that there was no need to be polite.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ji Xingzhi didn't even glance at He Wan. She straightened Luo Bai's hair, which was messed up from running, and asked with a smile, "Did Baibai miss me?"
His gentle and kind tone and expression made him sound like a qualified and good brother.
Luo Bai raised his head, pouting, his big round eyes filled with tears. He nodded heavily and said, "Eunuch Youke won't let me leave the palace to see you." As he spoke, he glared at the eunuch with a look of resentment, then looked away and asked worriedly, "Little brother, are you feeling better?"
Ji Xingzhi pinched Luo Baimeng's cheek and smiled, "Everything is fine." She paused and then asked, "Baibai, what are you doing here when you're not with your beautiful sister?"
