Chapter 2367 Falling into the Water
Everyone was stunned.
Kang Biyun, in particular, froze there as if she had been struck by thunder.
Xinping ran in happily from outside and rushed directly into Nanyan's arms. Nanyan reached out and hugged her, asking in confusion, "Why did you come back?"
Xinping said happily: "Something happened in the previous dynasty, so the teacher left."
"oh?"
"So, I left school early today."
"So that's how it is."
Although Liu Yueze was teaching her, he was still a cabinet clerk after all. Sometimes when there were emergencies in the court, he would be called away at any time. If the matter was handled quickly, he would come back to teach Xinping; if the matter was more important, Xinping would be allowed to go back from school.
This is not the first time.
Nan Yan hugged her and said, "Even though school is over, you still have to review what the teacher taught you later, okay?"
"knew."
"good,"
Nan Yan patted her chubby face and said, "By the way, why didn't you greet me before coming in?"
Xinping stood up from her arms obediently and bowed to Concubine Shun and Concubine Yi one by one: "Greetings, ladies and gentlemen."
Everyone smiled and said, "Hello, Princess."
"Your Highness is becoming more and more adorable."
"I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess has made great progress in her studies with Master Liu."
Nan Yan laughed and said, "What kind of progress is that? It's just knowing a few words. Don't be blind."
They were talking and laughing happily, but Kang Biyun at this time was feeling very uneasy. She kept her head down, afraid that Princess Xinping would see her, and she even broke out in a cold sweat.
Just then, Xinping walked in front of her, saw her, and blinked.
"well?"
However, before she could say anything, Chen Lianxiang smiled and said, “Oh, the sun is out outside.”
When everyone heard this, they quickly turned their heads away.
Sure enough, the sun was shining brightly outside.
Although it hasn't snowed these days, it's been gloomy every day. Finally, the sun came out today, and it was great weather. Everyone's eyes lit up when they saw it.
Xinping jumped for joy.
Said: "Mother, I want to go out and play!"
Nan Yan said angrily, "Haven't you had enough fun yet?"
When Princess Xinping heard this, she immediately pouted in grievance.
Everyone also tried to comfort her, "Your Highness, please let Her Royal Highness go out and play for a while."
“The sun rarely comes out.”
"Yeah, the weather has been so gloomy lately, and people are getting moldy staying indoors."
"Why don't we go out together, bask in the sun, and admire the plum blossoms."
Nan Yan had originally wanted to go out for a walk since the weather was so nice, and since everyone else was saying so, she smiled and said, "Okay, since everyone is here today, let's go for a walk together."
Xinping jumped up with joy and ran out quickly.
Everyone stood up, and at this time, Kang Biyun said softly: "Your Majesty, sisters, I feel a little unwell today and want to go back to rest, so I will not go with you."
Nan Yan glanced at her.
She said, "Since Concubine Kang is unwell, go back and have a good rest. Ruying, take good care of your Concubine."
"yes."
Ruying supported Kang Biyun and walked at the end of the group. After everyone walked out of the palace gate, they followed Princess Xinping's back, chatting and laughing as they went to the Imperial Garden, while Kang Biyun walked to the other side.
When they parted ways, Chen Lianxiang smiled and said, "Princess Xinping is so carefree. I don't know what she was doing last night. She made the Imperial Concubine so upset that she couldn't sleep well."
Kang Biyun forced a smile and said, "Yes, yes."
Chen Lianxiang looked at her carefully again.
He said, "Sister, go back and rest quickly. You look so distraught. It would be bad if you behave disrespectfully in front of the Imperial Concubine."
"Yes, sister, I'll take my leave."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Chen Lianxiang watched her leave. Although the sun was shining brightly, a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes and she turned and left.
Just as she turned around and followed the imperial concubine and the others, Kang Biyun, who had already walked a distance, turned back again, her eyes even darker, as she looked at the distant back of Princess Xinping.
She kept walking forward in silence. When she passed a pavilion, she said, "I'm a little tired. Help me sit down and rest."
"yes."
Ruying helped her walk over and sit down.
She said softly, "Jieyu, the sun is shining brightly today. You should go outside to bask in the sun. Besides, the Imperial Concubine and the others are out to the garden. If you don't go, you'll seem out of place."
Kang Biyun glanced at her.
Said: "That's right, but I'm wearing too little today, so it's a bit cold outside."
“…”
"How about this, go back and bring me the wind cloak."
"yes."
Ruying quickly turned around and went to Yangxingzhai.

On the other side, Nan Yan, Shun Fei, Yi Fei and others walked to the Imperial Garden together.
Naturally, everyone stayed by her side, except Xinping, who had already disappeared into the rockery group, and not even her shadow could be seen.
Nan Yan shook her head and laughed, "This girl is really a wild horse that has broken free from its reins."
“…”
"I shouldn't have brought her out."
Shun Fei Xin Qing smiled and said, "Your Majesty, please don't be too strict with Her Royal Highness. Children are just playful."
Nan Yan said, "She's not the only one who likes to play."
As she spoke, she looked at the concubines around her. Many of them were young women who had just entered the palace and had not yet grown out of their childish mentality, especially Concubine Xi and the others. They were all eager to go out and play.
Nan Yan smiled and said, "You don't have to stay by my side. The weather is nice today, let's all go out for a walk. Just be careful not to fall into the lake. Although the ice has melted a lot now, it's still cold. If you fall, you will freeze to death."
Everyone immediately said, "Thank you, Madam."
After saying that, everyone went away.
Although these concubines also traveled around, they were still well-behaved and just looked at the scenery. But Xinping was different from everyone else. She went behind the rockery, among the flowers and trees, and along the narrow paths.
At this time, she was walking by the lake and saw a few sparrows pecking at grass seeds on the ground in front of her.
"Wow, little bird!"
She felt playful and headed towards that direction, but a protruding rock wall blocked her way.
Xinping climbed up immediately.
The stone wall was not only high, but also hard and cold. After climbing for a while, she felt her red, frozen hands were rubbing and hurting. She wanted to climb back, but she was already halfway up with half of her body hanging outside.
"Oh...what should I do?"
She was anxious and wanted to call for help immediately.
But at this moment, a hand reached out from behind the rockery and grabbed her hand.
I felt calm and happy.
But the next moment, this hand suddenly pushed her down!
