Chapter 195 Reaching Consensus

This person is Bai Ling from the Jinxiu Palace.

Bai Ling looked at the prince's back, then turned to look at Han Xiyue in the other direction, her eyes full of hatred.

The queen was lonely and imprisoned in the cold palace and was murdered, and her three children were also abandoned by His Majesty.

But Song Qingya's child is about to get married.

Not to mention, the eldest princess is now pregnant.

I will never let them get what they want.

After separating from Han Xiyue, the prince took a small path to the side and headed towards Xuanfu Palace.

I still need to remind the guards at the door.

But unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, he bumped into the third prince.

"My brother, aren't you here to accompany Miss Han to the garden?" The Third Prince bowed respectfully to the Crown Prince. "Why are you here?"

Then he looked behind the prince and said jokingly, "Brother, you won't leave Miss Han alone in the Yu Garden, will you?"

The prince smiled gently, "Third brother, you misunderstood. I followed the wishes of the Empress Dowager and have sent Miss Han out of Rongle Palace."

"Although Miss Han and I are engaged, we are still unmarried. I still have to consider Miss Han's reputation as a lady."

When the Third Prince heard this, his face was full of disdain, and he tried to pretend to be a gentleman.

"Why are you here, Third Brother?" the Crown Prince asked. "The Xuanfu Palace is just ahead. Why don't I go there with you?"

Thinking about today's arrangements, which were all made to guard against his younger brother, a hint of anger appeared on the prince's brow.

The Third Prince shook his head and said, "Brother, please go ahead. I will go back to Changqiu Palace first."

At this time, on the other side of the Yu Garden, the Second Prince and Miss Rong were also looking at each other in silence.

They both knew what the Queen Mother meant, but they were too young to think about such things.

After walking for a long time, Rong Wenmiao finally spoke first: "Her Majesty the Queen Mother, I'm afraid you want to match me with the Second Prince."

The Second Prince paused when he heard this and turned to look at Rong Wenmiao beside him.

He always knew that she was a straightforward person, but this kind of straightforwardness made people feel a little uncomfortable.

He only answered hesitantly: "Yes, Madam Chen has mentioned you to me before."

"The Imperial Concubine?" Rong Wenmiao asked in surprise.

The second prince nodded and said nothing more.

Rong Wenmiao was filled with joy. She had always admired the Royal Concubine's personality and actions, but she never expected that the Royal Concubine actually cared about her.

I am quite happy actually!

"But I think we are still young now." The second prince is not thinking about love between men and women now. To him, what is more important is the cause of family and country, and supporting his elder brother to ascend the throne.

When that time comes, it will not be too late to consider your life-long affairs.

The Second Prince's words really touched Rong Wenmiao's heart. Rong Wenmiao looked back at the Second Prince with joy on her face: "What the Second Prince said is exactly what I was thinking."

The two looked at each other and reached a consensus.

At this time, the hall was also bustling with activity.

Since the Queen Mother and the Emperor of Great Chu had not yet arrived, the young masters and ladies were quite casual.

He Yunyao was happily approaching Lin Yin.

For some reason, Lin Yin was reluctant to talk to He Yunyao these days, but now at the banquet, she couldn't deny her face: "My cousin is here too."

He Yunyao looked at Lin Yin suspiciously, then turned to praise, "Cousin, you look so beautiful today."

Lin Yin wore a cloud-like satin skirt with gold-embroidered butterflies today, and the water magnolia hairpin in her hair made her look even more pure and elegant.

She was dressed in the same way as Qiong Hua that day, but the material of her clothes was definitely much better than Qiong Hua's.

After hearing this, Lin Yin smiled: "What did Sister Yun Yao say?"

At this time, He Yuyao was standing with Pei Chuyan and talking: "Cousin, have you been doing well in the palace these days?"

Pei Chuyan nodded: "I am in the palace now, the Royal Concubine treats me very well, and I often go to the Prince's Palace to talk with several princes. Cousin, don't worry, but you..."

He Yuyao knew what Pei Chuyan was worried about, so she patted his arm and looked up at the man in front of her. Although Pei Chuyan was three years younger than He Yuyao, he was tall and was actually a head taller than He Yuyao.

"Cousin, don't worry about me. I have my grandmother to protect me now. Those people dare not do anything to me." As he said this, He Yuyao's gaze swept towards He Yunyao.

While Pei Chuyan was talking to He Yuyao, his eyes seemed to be looking towards the door.

The task the prince gave him today was to guard the palace gate to prevent any assassins from breaking in.

This matter is of great importance and we must not be careless.

He Yunyao seemed to be looking at He Yuyao's gaze and raised her head to meet hers.

"Humph," He Yunyao muttered with disdain, "He's just a prince, and a prince whose parents are both dead. I really don't know why he's so arrogant here."

Lin Yin was so scared that she quickly covered He Yunyao's mouth: "What happened to you today? I heard that you had a dispute with someone at the palace gate just now?"

Only then did He Yunyao realize that he was in the imperial palace, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes.

Seeing her like this, Lin Yin let go of her hand: "Prince Pei is, after all, a prince personally appointed by His Majesty. This is unique in the entire capital."

"It was Your Majesty who bestowed the title?" He Yunyao was younger and had never cared about these matters, so he naturally didn't know about this.

"What do you think? The name of the Great Chu State is Chu, and Prince Pei's name also has the word Chu in it. If it weren't for your majesty's bestowing of the name, how could Prince Pei's name dare to have this word appear in it?"

He Yunyao suddenly understood and nodded.

I became even more afraid of Master Pei, as he had never liked me before.

But he was raised in the palace, so naturally people like me couldn't afford to offend him.

Rong Wenmiao and Han Xiyue also walked in from outside and saw He Yuyao at first sight. After greeting many young ladies from official families, the three of them finally gathered together again.

Pei Chuyan bowed to the two girls, said goodbye and left.

He walked to the temple gate and looked out casually.

Han Xiyue is now the future Crown Princess, so naturally there are people trying to curry favor with her, and she was soon surrounded by many ladies.

This left Rong Wenmiao and He Yuyao left out.

The two of them were not annoyed and stepped aside, chatting with a smile.

"Why did the Empress Dowager invite you to Rongle Palace today?" She had heard the words outside, but she still wanted to confirm with Rong Wenmiao.

Rong Wenmiao thought about what she had just said to the Second Prince, but she was embarrassed to say it to her own sister, so she smiled and covered it up, "It's nothing, they just asked me to sit there for a while, maybe they were worried that Sister Han would feel uncomfortable being alone."

He Yuyao had no doubts and just nodded.

At this time, Lin Yin was busy looking for the woman who followed Song Zhuo that day.

But after searching around, I didn't find anything.
