Princess Xinrong rode a horse for the first time. She was a little scared at first, but after riding two laps, she got the hang of it and rode more and more smoothly and steadily.
She was completely immersed in the joy of riding. Looking down at the completely different scenery from the past, she felt a sense of grandeur for no reason.
"Now I know how it felt when my father rode a horse to conquer the country!"
Hua Lingyi laughed and said, "Your Majesty is a true hero! He drove out the foreign races and unified the Central Plains! He is a role model for us to learn from!"
"Yes, father is a true hero!" Princess Xinrong smiled.
The two were talking and laughing, and when they passed by He Yuqing, He Yuqing waved quickly.
"Your Highness! Riding a horse is dirty and tiring, so you'd better get off quickly!"
Princess Xinrong sat on the horse, looking down at He Yuqing, and saw the flash of disdain and disgust in his eyes.
She suddenly thought of several times before when He Yuqing had shown disdain for military commanders, looking down on those who charged into battle, and thinking that they were illiterate and unworthy of being on the stage.
At that time, she indulged him! She thought he was polite, talented, and a rare handsome scholar.
However, this world was conquered by warriors who charged into battle and sacrificed their lives. They are all heroes!
Princess Xinrong's eyes flickered. Perhaps, she had been wrong all along!
She closed her eyes, and when she looked at him, her eyes became clearer.
Only then did she realize that he was just an ordinary man who thought highly of himself and didn't even dare to ride a horse.
He Yuqing was so perceptive that he immediately felt that the princess's eyes had changed when she looked at him. She no longer had the same attachment as before. She looked at him like a stranger.
He suddenly panicked, but didn't know what to do.
But the princess no longer looked at him, and continued riding with Hua Lingyi.
Later, Jiang Quanda, Hua Lingyi, Hua Lingjian, and Wen Hao also came to several horse races.
Princess Xinrong, Hua Wanru and Jiang Quanling cheered on the sidelines. The scene was full of excitement.
When it was almost dark, the princess returned to the palace reluctantly.
I also made an appointment with a few people to play together next time.
On the way back to the palace, Princess Xinrong sat in the carriage with her eyes closed to rest. Suddenly, He Yuqing's voice was heard outside.
"Cousin. Are you still angry with me? Are you really ignoring me?"
Princess Xinrong frowned and said nothing.
He Yuqing added, "I know, cousin, you must be mad at me! I just went to Hua Man Lou with a few friends that day to drink! I really didn't do anything!"
Seeing that the princess still didn't speak, He Yuqing became a little anxious and quickly explained.
"Cousin, we grew up together, you still don't understand..."
"Mr. He, the princess is resting now! Please be quiet!" Suddenly, Chun'er, the maid beside the princess, interrupted him.
He Yuqing froze.
"Princess! I..."
Chun'er coughed lightly.
He Yuqing quickly fell silent.
The front was at the gate of the imperial palace. He Yuqing could only stop the carriage and watch the princess' carriage go in.
His eyes were filled with displeasure. He felt that the princess was becoming more and more willful!
In the carriage, Chun'er hesitated for a long time before asking in a low voice.
"Your Highness, are you really angry with Mr. He this time?"
Princess Xinrong opened her eyes, and they were clear.
"I'm not mad at him, I just think it's not worth it!"
Chun'er pouted, looking angry.
"Mr. He is such a fool! The princess treated him so well in the past! He clearly went to a brothel and still lied! He probably doesn't know that the princess went to see him in person!"
Princess Xinrong suddenly asked Chun'er, "Was I very good to him before?"
Chun Er nodded quickly, "Almost obeyed my orders!"
Princess Xinrong frowned.
"But it's not the princess's fault. After all, the queen died young, and His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan cannot return to Beijing at will! You are naturally close to your aunt's family! And Mr. He is your cousin!" Chun'er consoled her with concern.
Princess Xinrong spoke after a long while.
"In just over a month, my brother will be back! I won't be alone anymore!"
…
Hua Lingxuan and his companions said goodbye to Jiang Quanda and his companions, and returned home in a carriage.
Hua Lingxuan and his friends returned to the Duke's Mansion and arrived at the front hall. They found Hua Changjue, Jiang, and Liu were all there. They all looked solemn.
"You're back!" Hua Changjue said lightly.
Several people hurriedly saluted. Hua Qingqing ran directly to Jiang and got into her arms.
"Mom, mom, the baby is back! The baby is hungry and wants to eat!"
Jiang was helpless. She poked her forehead and said with a smile, "All you do all day long is eat!" Then she ordered the servants to prepare the meal.
After the meal was prepared and the servants had left, only the family was left.
Hua Lingxuan asked curiously.
"Father, what happened?"
Hua Changjue handed him an invitation, "Look for yourselves!"
Hua Lingxuan took it, and the brothers looked at it together.
"This is the invitation to the princess' flower-viewing party! It will be held in a few days!" Hua Lingyi raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of Princess Xinrong.
I wonder if the princess will go!
Hua Wanru frowned and said, "It says here that mother should go too!"
Only then did they react and looked at Hua Changjue.
"Yes, I don't know why the eldest princess would specially invite your mother to go!"
The entire front hall had been cleared of servants, so there was no need to be restrained in speaking.
"Could it be that because of what happened at the gate that day, someone with ulterior motives discovered my mother's identity?" Hua Wanru asked worriedly.
Hua Changjue nodded. "I have the same guess! Otherwise, why would Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, suddenly care about a concubine?"
"This is just a guess! What if the princess is just curious? That's why she asked someone for help!"
"But on the day of the flower-viewing banquet, all the noble ladies in the city of Bianjing will be there. That's when it will be the most dangerous! I'm afraid someone will recognize Sister Liu!" Jiang said worriedly.
Everyone was worried and didn't know what to do.
"Or, should we tell the princess that I'm sick and can't go?" Liu asked anxiously.
"Is this possible?" Jiang looked at Hua Changjue.
"I don't think so. If you can refuse once, how can you refuse every time? As time goes on, people will become more suspicious!" Hua Lingxuan held up his chin and continued.
"It's better to go openly! We can counter the opponent's moves. After all, there are still people who imagine things. As long as they don't admit it, it shouldn't be a big problem! After all, there is no evidence!"
Everyone was in deep thought.
"My master once mentioned that there is a technique to disguise one's appearance." Hua Wanru said, "Perhaps we can do a simple disguise for Mom! To cover up her appearance a little bit!"
"Sister, can you do it?" Hua Lingxuan asked.
