Jingrou and the others certainly didn't want to watch the relationship deteriorate like this.
Although there doesn't seem to be any major conflict, there's a sense that there's something between them.
Such a relationship is quite uncomfortable to maintain, especially for those who value genuine friendship.
For someone as outspoken as Minghui, seeing something like this happen is truly upsetting... It's like she'd rather just say what she wants to say directly, instead of being so hesitant and petty, which makes her seem pathetic!
Moreover, her actions felt like a thorn stuck in someone's heart; it seemed like making a scene was completely unnecessary. But ignoring the matter was incredibly distressing!
However, it didn't have much effect. Mingyue usually seemed like such a simple and lovely person, but when faced with this kind of situation, she just stared blankly with her eyes wide open, as if nothing had happened. Normally, she could talk to them without any worries.
It made people who wanted to question her or ask her questions unable to say anything.
But if people don't open up to each other, how can they stand it? Does it mean that everyone in the study must have a particularly harmonious relationship?
In fact, the relationship between the princesses was already very delicate, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were scheming against each other. However, it was because of the incident where the wicked nanny was punished that the hearts of the girls were suddenly united.
Because of this incident, they were filled with righteous indignation and united to help. They quickly became the glue that held the girls together, and their relationship improved over time.
So when you encounter this kind of thing, it's really frustrating. If you could have a big fight and the relationship would be worse off, that would be better!
It's precisely this kind of lukewarm distancing that makes people feel even more uncomfortable!
However, there was nothing Jingrou could do about it. They could never go back to the way things were, even though their relationship had always been very good.
In truth, Mingyue is innocent and naive. Raised by Consort De, she's somewhat carefree and guileless. Such a person should be very easy to get along with…
But no one can compare to Mingyue's mother, right?
What I did back then indirectly hurt Consort De...
But should we not do this just because they are good friends?
Moreover, they never imagined that such a thing would happen before, and they never thought that there was a nobleman's father involved behind the scenes!
Lord Uya… to put it bluntly, he clearly brought this upon himself, and it can't be blamed on them. Doesn't Jingrou feel guilty about this? This is what he deserves!
If he hadn't actually gotten involved, would the Emperor have punished him? Perhaps the only reason he wasn't beheaded was because of Consort De!
Therefore, this matter can be considered an unsolvable problem.
To put it bluntly, Mingyue did a good job. She kept a slight distance from them and didn't get too close to them. That's how she treated her mother well.
Since no one was at fault, it could only be due to their positions. At this moment, Jingrou suddenly understood why her maternal grandfather and Emperor Kangxi, though they could be considered kindred spirits, never had a particularly harmonious relationship and were often wary of each other.
Sometimes my grandfather would often sigh in his study.
As expected of Emperor Kangxi, he surpassed his predecessor and was even more capable than Emperor Shunzhi. It can be said that I greatly admire him!
Prince An was happy that the Qing Dynasty had such a monarch, but if he was happy for him, would he not resent Emperor Kangxi?
On the other hand, Prince An sometimes gritted his teeth! The fact that people guarded against him so closely made him feel constrained in his actions, which was incredibly frustrating.
Minghui also saw the bright moon.
She actually disliked Mingyue a little, partly because of her deliberate distancing. Ultimately, it was because Consort De had done something wrong.
They didn't do anything wrong!
Does that mean Mingxuan deserves to be bullied by the nanny? And what about those princesses who mysteriously disappeared along the way? Did they deserve to die in vain?
Why does she have to have such an awkward personality? And they never implicated the retired lady in what Consort De had done, nor did they ever treat her coldly!
At this point, Minghui might wonder if Mingyue's previous naive and innocent demeanor was all an act. Even if it wasn't, her current personality is definitely not likable!
Moreover, Minghui is precocious and she looks down on Mingyue's naive and innocent appearance, but she just didn't say it before.
Minghui went to Yuqing Palace for a free meal.
After the three of them finished their meal at Yuqing Palace, they were about to return to their study. Yinreng was going to send Jingrou off first before going back to his own study, but he bumped into Yinzhi when he looked up.
"Second Brother Crown Prince, you've really shown great loyalty this time! How about I take you out to a restaurant for dinner next time?" Yinzhi winked at him. Sometimes when the Emperor assigns them tasks to do outside, they still go to a restaurant for a meal. They've had so many things to eat in the palace that they want to try something new outside.
It's not that the food outside is particularly good, it's just that it's fresh.
When Yinreng was busy or it was inconvenient to dine at the homes of ministers, he would sometimes go to restaurants. However, Yinreng was a little worried that his elder brother was only going there to drink, and he was also concerned that his young age might lead him to be tricked by his political enemies in the court, especially given his mysterious demeanor.
"Of course, no problem... then the younger brother can't do anything else."
Yinzhi glared at him. What did he take him for? Even if he did outrageous things normally, he wouldn't just drag him out for drinks!
However, this crown prince is really too boring. He can't drink alcohol, but he can try some strange and unusual things.
But now it seems that we really can't expect this little antique to do anything!
Yinreng watched him leave.
My elder brother is a straightforward and generous person. Although he can be a bit reckless at times, he is actually a good person at heart. It's just that he has been raised by Consort Hui and Nalan Mingzhu to be somewhat confrontational with him—which is also due to their respective positions.
Actually, if you coax him a little and don't argue with him, he's relatively easy to deal with.
Moreover, although the two brothers had some competition, why not work together for the Qing Dynasty?
Why engage in open and covert struggles?
