Chapter 910: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Concubine 52
"Xiao Ye, I knew you were here. Since you have nothing to do, how about playing a game?"
The prince was accompanied by only a few followers and came in casual clothes, so as not to alarm anyone.
However, those present were all sons of noble families and they all knew the prince. Some came forward to curry his favor, while others deliberately avoided him.
Yun Ye still looked carefree, leaning on the fence and waving at the prince, "When this round is over, I will play a game with Your Highness. Let's go to the racecourse. This place is too small and boring."
The prince ignored the others and went straight to Yun Ye, "You are good at avoiding idleness. You are newlyweds, but you are just intruding. Aren't you disturbing Xiao Ye's good things?"
Yun Ye said carelessly: "I am sorry for disturbing you. How do you plan to compensate me, Your Highness?"
The prince laughed and scolded, "You are so rude! Every time I see you, you ask for rewards in various ways. I didn't send anyone to give you a gift for your wedding. Who knows what you are scolding me for in your heart? This is for the Crown Prince's wife, take it and play with it."
Ji Yunhuan bowed slightly but did not perform any big greetings. It was obvious that the prince came here to have fun, and he could not disturb his mood.
Prince Liangyuan came over with a gift box. Ji Yunhuan took it with both hands and blinked at Prince Liangyuan. They both smiled at the same time.
Qin Youyou couldn't wait any longer, she pulled the prince's sleeve and shook him, "Your Highness, I finally got out, and you promised to let me go riding."
The prince waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, let the princess take you around. Be careful and don't fall."
Ji Yunhuan had already held Qin Youyou's hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Highness. I will definitely take good care of Youyou and won't lose a single hair."
Yun Ye and the prince went to the horse race. Chu Feiyi thought about it and decided to follow them. Most people dispersed. At such a sensitive time, they did not dare to get too close to the prince.
Ji Yunhuan took the female family members out for fun. She was riding on Frost Dew, a snow-white horse that was well-behaved and nimble, and she rode very fast. No one else could catch up with her.
After running a few laps, everyone was tired, so they sat together to drink tea and talk.
Ma Feihong wiped the sweat from her forehead and sighed, "The last time I saw you was at the Xu Family Manor. I was really worried that you would be upset. You will definitely be blessed in the future if you survive a disaster. Now that you have become the Crown Prince's Consort, everything is fine."
"It is thanks to you that I can come to Jinghua Horse Farm to have fun. Otherwise, with my father being a minor official, there is no way he could come here to ride and shoot."
"This lady looks familiar. Which family is she from? Your riding and archery skills are not that good. You should go out and play more and practice more in the future."
Qin Youyou was a little embarrassed. "Like Huan'er, I have never learned how to ride a horse, but Huan'er's horsemanship has improved by leaps and bounds. This is my first time going out since I entered the Crown Prince's Mansion. His Highness said that he would take me out more often in the future and let me play with the Crown Prince's Consort more often."
Ji Yunhuan introduced: "This is the prince's concubine Qin Youyou. I won't hide it from you. I am not doing well in the Ji family, and she is not doing well in the Qin family either. We are both in the same boat, and we have known each other for a long time."
"During this year's selection, His Majesty appointed a royal consort and two concubines to the Eighth Prince. It was not appropriate to favor one over the other, so he appointed a good lady to the Crown Prince. Qin Youyou was lucky. To be honest, if she really returned to the Qin family, she would be a helpless concubine, and the Qin family would not arrange a good marriage for her."
"Now this is also a destination, the Qin family will have to curry favor with her."
Ma Feihong quickly stood up and greeted her. "So it's the prince's concubine. I am so rude for speaking without restraint. Huan'er, you didn't tell me earlier. With such a pretty face, I thought she was an unmarried girl."
Qin Youyou also stood up and supported Ma Feihong. She was so nervous that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet. "Don't be like this. I'm not a great person. Why are you being so polite?"
"You two stop bowing to each other and sit down!" Ji Yun said with a smile, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is elegant and easy-going. He is just here to have fun. Let's have fun too. There is no need to be so particular."
The Crown Prince is the legitimate son of the Empress, who is only thirty years old and in the prime of his life. He has been named the Crown Prince since he was young and trained as a crown prince. He is a man of both civil and military skills, and there is nothing wrong with him in governing the country. It will be his legitimate right to succeed to the throne in the future, and no one in the court will disobey his orders.
The emperor was old and had a serious illness, so he began to be suspicious. Fearing that the crown prince was too popular, he promoted the eighth prince and suppressed him. He also named the eighth prince's mother as Concubine Dong, and pampered her in every way, which also fostered the eighth prince's ambition.
If it was said that the emperor wanted to depose the crown prince, that was not the case. After all, there was a huge difference between the eighth prince and the crown prince. The crown prince was related to the foundation of the country and could not be deposed easily.
People tend to become confused when they get old, and they like to favor their youngest sons. The emperor often takes the eighth prince to his side to teach him, but does not allow the crown prince to participate in state affairs. He would find an excuse to let the crown prince go back to school. The crown prince was also very stable, not arrogant or impatient, and did not fight or compete.
The prince has nothing to do, so he can only eat, drink and have fun. Yun Ye is an expert at eating, drinking and having fun. He doesn't talk about important matters with the prince, he doesn't try to curry favor with him, nor does he distance himself from him, he just plays around!
Yun Ye told Ji Yunhuan everything. Ji Yunhuan knew that Yun Ye was only a playboy on the surface. He knew very well in his heart that the prince would not fall and was just temporarily frustrated. There were many people around the prince who were willing to offer advice and suggestions and strive for the credit of following him. There was no need for him to get involved. Knowing how to have fun was also a skill.
The prince is on high alert every day and needs to relax.
The prince had already investigated Qin Youyou thoroughly, and only then did he feel at ease to pamper her. Qin Youyou didn't have a prominent family background, and she was innocent and young. It was just the right time to pamper her now, and bring her out to keep the prince's wife company.
After dinner, the guests returned with great satisfaction. Ji Yunhuan and Qin Youyou's relationship became even better. They can visit each other more often and even visit each other.
Yun Ye was busy with things at the horse farm, and taking advantage of this free time, Ji Yunhuan met Wang Gui.
Wang Gui bowed his head as soon as he came in, "Greetings to the Crown Princess. I saw that the Crown Princess was busy, so I didn't dare to disturb her. I could only let Mi Xue pass on the message. I definitely didn't mean to bother Miss Mi Xue on purpose."
Mi Xue glared at Wang Gui. This man kept talking to her about all sorts of things and even wanted to give her a hairpin after they were done. He didn't get to the point for a long time and was just trying to please the young lady.
"I didn't stop you from seeing Mi Xue. I'm not like the villain who broke up the couple. Come on, how are things going? Have you heard any useful information?"
Wang Gui stood up cheerfully, "Mother Zhao bought a beautiful maid, who is exactly the one we arranged. I brought her here and asked her to tell the Crown Prince's Consort in person. It will be better than me passing the message. If the Crown Prince's Consort wants to see her, I will bring her in to pay her respects."
