Chapter 872: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Daughter 14
Xu's mind was all on the Zhao family, trying to pave the way for her daughter's future, so she had no time to bother Ji Yunhuan.
Ji Yunhuan copied nine volumes of Buddhist scriptures and asked Xu to offer sacrifices to the Buddha for a day and a night to pray for his father and stepmother. Xu agreed.
The carriage drove into Gaota Temple, and Ji Yunhuan was led into the incense room. He knelt on a cushion, unfolded a Buddhist scripture, and recited it in an orderly manner.
Nanny Wan sat beside them, drinking the tea served by the little monk, and admonished: "Madam had asked the eldest daughter to copy the Buddhist scriptures a long time ago, but she has waited until now to finish copying it. It shows that her heart is not sincere!"
"The young lady has been punished in the ancestral hall, but she has become much more obedient. She even knew to copy the Buddhist scriptures with her blood to please the lady. I think you should recite them a few more times today. This old servant will always accompany the young lady."
Mi Xue also knelt with the young lady. The young lady was so smart that she used cinnabar instead of blood. Anyway, the lady had never seen what it looked like to write with blood, so she believed it seriously.
After drinking half a cup of tea, Nanny Wan felt so sleepy that her eyelids were drooping. Soon she fell back on the chair and fell into a deep sleep, unconscious.
A young monk came in and clasped his hands together towards Ji Yunhuan, "Donor, follow me. The carriage and horses are ready."
Ji Yunhuan glanced at Nanny Wan and seemed a little nervous.
[What are you afraid of? I have arranged everything. I promise to make you happy today. This old man needs to sleep for at least a day and a night.]
[The immortal is really amazing! He is so thorough in everything. I admire him! ]
[What's the matter? I'm going to take you to Yumei Garden. If Qingsong can't even do this, he's not worthy of serving the prince! ]
Ji Yunhuan followed the little monk to an inconspicuous side door. A low-key carriage was parked at the door. The blue-gray roof looked inconspicuous, but it was very comfortable inside.
The carriage was covered with white cashmere blankets, which made one feel like falling into clouds when stepping on them. There was a soft couch in the carriage, and lying on it made one feel completely relaxed.
The coachman was taciturn and just asked the people inside to sit down. The carriage was moving very fast but it was not bumpy or shaky at all. Ji Yunhuan soon fell asleep.
Mi Xue was a little nervous. She sat with her back straight, feeling like all this was a dream.
Soon, she couldn't hold on any longer, so she leaned against the wall of the car and closed her eyes.
Yun Ye's fingers stroked Ji Yunhuan's frowning brows, but he could only pass through vaguely without touching anything.
This woman looks so sad even when she is asleep. She is so pitiful.
At the entrance of Yumei Garden.
Qingsong was already waiting here. The prince sent a letter asking him to treat Miss Ji well, so he did not dare to neglect him.
Mi Xue helped the young lady get off the carriage. Everywhere she looked was bustling. Any flower by the roadside was worth a fortune and was worth as much as a small house.
Ji Yunhuan strolled leisurely in the garden and said with a smile: "This is Yulouchun, it is pure white, and the prince won it from a bet. But I still like Erqiao more. It has purple and pink colors on one flower, which is very unique."
"The prince also said he would give me a plant. This one is growing well. It will be beautiful when it blooms. Put it on the carriage later and I will take it back."
[Great Immortal! Are you crazy? Get off me! Forging a letter is fine, but how could you take the prince's things? If we are discovered, we will be finished! ]
[Don't panic! Let me do it! If you don't act realistically, how can you prove that you have a close relationship with the prince? Don't worry, I know everything about the prince, and I won't let you know.]
Qingsong smiled and apologized, "This is the prince's favorite thing, and I can't make the decision."
Ji Yunhuan waved his hands nonchalantly, "If he doesn't like it, I won't want it either! What good stuff? Your prince has cultivated thousands of them, but he just held back and didn't release all of them, driving up the price."
Qingsong was shocked. Only a few people knew about this. The trend of appreciating peonies was also started by the prince. He even made a bet with others to drive up the reputation of Yulouchun. Now Yulouchun is out of fashion, and the most popular one is Erqiao!
This woman's dress is ordinary and she doesn't look wealthy at all, but her whole demeanor and every word and action are quite like that of a prince. No wonder the prince regards her as a close friend and treats her differently.
"What the young lady said is very true. The prince is a generous man and he certainly doesn't care about such a small thing. It's my fault. Come, pick up these flowers and give them to the young lady."
"Young lady, please come this way. The table is ready in the room."
Ji Yunhuan stood in the garden without moving, and said disdainfully: "What a hell of a place, I won't go! Who wants to sit in the house to eat, it's so boring."
"Your prince always took me to Yurui Tower before. The view was so good that I could eat there. But it's a pity that it's not the right time now. The jade plums are withering, so it's barely ok to look at."
Qingsong immediately ordered people to set up the meal in Yurui Tower and invited Ji Yunhuan to come upstairs.
Yun Ye had suffered for these days and finally had a good meal. The food that usually tasted mediocre tasted especially delicious today.
He returned his body to Ji Yunhuan so that she could enjoy it.
[Don't panic! Stay calm! I wrote in the letter that you saved Prince Yun's life, and Prince Yun and you are close friends, just like Chu Feiyi. I asked Qingsong to find a way to pick you up from the temple and treat you well.]
[Qingsong has already believed it. After all, the prince's calligraphy is unique in the world and it is difficult for others to imitate it. There is also a predetermined code. I climbed over the wall and found a letter sent by a little beggar. This has happened before. He will not doubt it.]
Qingsong brought over a bowl of bird's nest soup and said with a smile, "Please, young lady! The prince has been confined by the master, and even I haven't seen him for a long time. Qingfeng is also useless and can't deliver any news."
"That day, in the middle of the night, a little beggar came to deliver a letter. It was indeed a letter from the prince himself. The young lady is good friends with the prince. Do you know how the prince is doing now?"
Yun Ye didn't know how he was doing now. He was probably unconscious, so his father blocked the news and pretended to be angry and confined him to his room.
Ji Yunhuan ate the bird's nest in small bites. "The prince did send me a letter, which was also sent by a beggar. He said that he was forced to study and had a headache. If he found a chance, he could climb over the wall and get out. There is nothing to worry about."
Qingsong felt a little relieved. "When the Duke calms down, the Crown Prince should be able to come out. Master Chu has not seen the Crown Prince, let alone heard a word from him. He even came to Yumei Garden to ask me. What can a servant like me know?"
[This bird's nest is good, very nourishing, just right for you to replenish your body. Ask Qingsong to prepare some for you.]
Ji Yunhuan could only ask for it shamelessly, otherwise the immortal’s chattering would annoy her to death.
Qingsong was very understanding, "Of course, of course. The prince doesn't like these, they were all sent by others, and there are also blood swallows, all of which are given to the young lady."
"I have been asking to see the prince, but I am not allowed to enter the Duke's Mansion. The prince was also put in solitary confinement before, but he was not told not to see the servants. If the young lady can talk to the prince, even if it is just a letter, please ask the prince to give me instructions. I cannot make decisions on business matters without authorization."
