Chapter 427 Who Does Yanyu Help?
"How can I not bow down to you, Lord Chu?"
That's true, but that's not what she was asking.
What kind of word game are you playing here?
Bei Jingchu shut up in silence, too lazy to speak.
He was stupefied and explained obediently: "We just said a few words openly at the banquet. Even if the elders saw it, no one would think that Your Highness and I have a personal relationship."
"If you sneak around and get caught, it will only arouse suspicion."
Bei Jingchu: ? ?
"Who has a personal relationship with you?"
He said in distress: "It turns out that they are thrown away after use."
Bei Jingchu: “…”
Well, she was to blame.
Let’s just keep it private.
Chang Tingyi caught a falling green leaf and asked, "Your Highness, do you know the reason for His Majesty's sudden change of attitude?"
"Why? You know?"
Chang Tingyi sighed: "It seems that Your Highness doesn't know. I thought you and His Majesty had colluded."
Bei Jingchu rolled her eyes.
She hoped so too.
"Although what I got out of your Highness's mouth may not be true, I think you are not lying."
"There is no source for many things. They only know that their hope has come."
"A fish that bites a hook only sees the bait, so how can it notice the attached rod?"
Bei Jingchu felt a glimmer of hope in his heart: "You mean, His Majesty is doing this to lure the fish into the trap?"
"Not entirely."
Chang Tingyi tilted his head.
"After all, fish can't see the hook. What if there is no hook? If it is pure bait, do you dare to bet?"
Of course I don't dare...
The higher you stand on the mountain, the more rugged the road becomes, with steep cliffs below, and if you take a wrong step you will be crushed to pieces.
Sometimes Bei Jingchu hated herself for reading too much and letting her rationality overwhelm her emotions.
The fact that fathers and sons killed each other in successive generations throughout history reminded her again and again not to repeat the same mistakes.
Why does she think she is special?
Why does she think that those deposed princes did not have the warmth and love between father and son? But everything is insignificant under the overthrow of power.
"I cannot stay with Your Highness for too long. Even if Your Highness loses his reputation, there will still be many suitors. But if I lose my reputation, I will not be able to marry a wife."
"I will take my leave first."
Bei Jingchu: “…”
No, wait a minute, explain why you really described her as a scumbag? ?
Chang Tingyi returned to the elder and bowed respectfully: "Uncle."
"What did you talk about with the prince just now?"
"I saw him, and I just paid him a visit."
Uncle Chang nodded without much doubt.
After all, they were from aristocratic families and were the most polite. They couldn't just turn around and leave after running into the prince.
Of course, a special visit is impossible.
The serious old man smiled when Bei Jingyu came over, and the wrinkles on his face could kill a mosquito.
The opening banquet of the Prince Qin's Mansion ended in great excitement. The host, Bei Jingyu, was drunk and was carried back.
On the carriage back to the palace, Bei Yanyu climbed up like a little mouse stealing oil.
Bei Jingchu's arm sank, and a little princess was hung on it as a pendant.
Bei Yanyu sighed, "Sister, are you having a conflict with Xiao San?"
Bei Jingchu touched her head and explained, "It's not a contradiction, but a dispute."
Princess Xiangrou was the last to notice the unrest between the siblings.
Bei Jingchu asked her: "If we fight, who will Yanyu help?"
Bei Yanyu frowned, looking very uncomfortable.
For her, choosing between her elder sister and her younger brother is probably as difficult as choosing between her father-in-law and her mother-in-law more.
She rested her chin on Bei Jingchu's arm, raised her head and asked, "Can't we just solve this problem?"
"Do we have to fight?"
