Wen Jingchi then clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you, Madam Shufei, for your help. If you need my help in the future, please feel free to speak up."
This is what Concubine Shu was waiting for Wen Jingchi to say, and she curled the corners of her lips in satisfaction.
The former dynasty and the latter court have always been closely related. Her son was destined to never become emperor, so she could only cling to a big tree and prosper together with him.
After a brief chat, Chu Weiyue suddenly thought of the gossip she had just heard and handed the small sachet to Concubine Shu.
"Madam Shufei, this is the sachet I made myself. It not only calms the nerves, but also has the magical effect of relieving pain and healing if you have an upset stomach. Please carry it with you."
Fearing that she would feel embarrassed, Chu Weiyue used a very tactful way to hand her a small bottle.
"The medicine here is good for your health. Madam Shufei can take a pill when you feel unwell."
Concubine Shu didn't understand pharmacology, but since Chu Weiyue could say this, it was definitely impossible for her to harm her.
But she was a little surprised. How could Chu Weiyue know her hidden illness!
Chu Weiyue could only pull the corner of his mouth awkwardly: "I just started studying medicine recently, and I noticed that the queen's complexion was not good, so I noticed it."
"I see. Thank you so much. When you have time, come sit in my palace. I make delicious tea. We can chat while eating snacks. It will help us relieve boredom."
Then she cast her eyes on Wen Jingchi's face: "I just don't know if Your Majesty is willing to bear the pain and let go of me for the time being."
After a few jokes, Wen Jingchi took Chu Weiyue away.
The two held hands, talking and laughing as they arrived at the downtown area of the capital.
Perhaps because there were too many people around, Wen Jingchi subconsciously wanted to let go of her hand, but Chu Weiyue held it tighter.
"Now you are my future husband. Even if I hug you and kiss you on the street, no one will dare to say a word."
She raised her chin arrogantly and looked fierce, so no one dared to provoke her.
Wen Jingchi couldn't help laughing at her teasing, and raised his finger to gently scratch her nose.
The two of them were openly affectionate on the streets of the capital, and even if someone saw them, they would look at them with envy.
There is a busy street at the back door of the mansion, full of stalls selling snacks.
Chu Weiyue deliberately took Wen Jingchi along that road, and they both ate so much that their bellies were full.
When we arrived at the back door, there were not many vendors. This was where the dignitaries lived, so the vendors did not dare to gather.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared before my eyes. It was Lin Zixi.
Chu Weiyue frowned tightly: "Why is it her again?"
The last time I saw Lin Zixi, she left in a hurry like this, and I didn’t know where she was going. I didn’t expect it to be the same this time.
Chu Weiyue couldn't help it. She strode over and blocked her way.
Lin Zixi was just walking with his head down, and didn't even notice someone coming towards him.
He was caught off guard and bumped directly into Chu Weiyue.
When he raised his head, his eyes met Chu Weiyue's.
Her eyes were panicked for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
Seeing Chu Weiyue and Wen Jingchi walking together, he immediately broke into a bright smile.
"What a coincidence, sister. I didn't expect to meet you and the prince here. Are you two going back?"
Chu Weiyue said nothing, but just looked her up and down.
"Where are you going? Why were you in a hurry the last time I saw you? And this time too, it seems like you don't have anything important to do?"
She usually lives in the mansion, so she doesn't need to get involved in many things.
These words made Lin Zixi burst into laughter.
"Sister, you are now a free person, just focusing on having fun with the prince, and you don't know how busy we are. You and the prince are about to get married, and we need to buy things..."
Afraid that Chu Weiyue wouldn't believe it, she deliberately handed her a list.
"This is the list my grandmother wrote for me. I will prepare according to the amount on it. When my sister gets married, I will definitely send you off in a grand manner."
Then, she bowed respectfully to Wen Jingchi and Chu Weiyue.
"I was away from home before and didn't have the chance to congratulate you. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you two on finally getting married."
Although there was a smile on her face, her words were cold and there was no joy at all.
Chu Weiyue could sense that her words were insincere.
"Okay, I won't talk to you any more. I have a lot of things to buy. If I'm late, grandma will blame me."
Lin Zixi bowed to them respectfully, then got on a carriage, which left in a hurry just like last time.
Chu Weiyue frowned subconsciously and muttered softly while looking at Wen Jingchi.
"Why do I feel like she's unhappy about my marriage? Could it be that she has a crush on you?"
Her words were just a joke, but Wen Jingchi was startled and he knocked her on the forehead with some dissatisfaction.
"Even if she likes me, it's useless because I'm not interested in her at all. My heart is completely occupied by you, this little devil..."
It was rare to hear his glib words, Chu Weiyue said with a tut-tut sound: "You are really amazing, you are getting better and better at teasing people."
“I didn’t learn this from you.”
Chu Weiyue rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction and held his arm tightly: "After we get married, you can only say such things to me. If you dare to say it to other women..."
She didn't say the rest of the words, but made a ferocious expression.
The two of them went in while chatting and laughing.
Chu Weiyue specially invited Wen Jingchi to sit in her boudoir, and there was no shyness between the two of them.
It was not until dusk that Wen Jingchi left in a hurry.
After seeing him off, Chu Weiyue came to the main hall.
Now that dinner is ready, her status has greatly improved. Not only her father, but even her grandmother respects her.
Seeing Chu Weiyue coming, they immediately made a gesture.
"You are finally here, girl. You have kept us waiting for so long. Come and sit down."
Grandma closed her eyes and looked kind. She gestured to Chu Weiyue, indicating her to sit in the main seat.
This made Chu Weiyue frowned in frustration: "Grandma, you should sit here. How can I sit here? Isn't it confusing the hierarchy?"
The Marquis snorted in dissatisfaction: "What are you talking about? If the two of us were to sit in the main seat, it would be a mess of hierarchy.
Now that you are going to marry the Ninth Prince, you have an extraordinary status, and the Emperor has granted you the status of a princess, so we naturally cannot treat you badly. If it gets out, people will say that our family doesn’t know the rules.”
After listening to his explanation, Chu Weiyue felt very uncomfortable. She didn't like to discuss hierarchy at home.
But when she saw Song and Chu Ranxin next to her, she sat down without hesitation: "In that case, it would be disrespectful for my daughter to refuse."
