However, she is no longer the high and mighty eldest daughter in Prime Minister Zhao's residence. The relationship between them is unequal.
From the moment he appeared, she made a choice.
She patted Qin Zongzhi's back, her voice soft and low, "No, where else can I go except here?"
"If you're so worried, why didn't you ask someone to follow you secretly today?"
"That way, you don't have to worry all day."
Qin Zongzhi buried his head in her shoulder, like a lost kitten seeking comfort. "I don't want anyone to follow me. I'm afraid you won't feel at ease."
Last night, when Zhao Yunzhu proposed to send Chun'er away, Qin Zongzhi understood in his heart.
Zhao Yunzhu doesn't trust anyone and doesn't want to put Chun'er in danger.
Therefore, he did not ask her where she planned to send Chun'er, nor did he ask anyone to follow Zhao Yunzhu.
He was also gambling today. Qin Zongzhi was gambling that Zhao Yunzhu would definitely come back.
But Zhao Yunzhu definitely didn't come back for him. Qin Zongzhi still had some self-knowledge.
All the injustices suffered by the Zhao family began from the moment he saw the anger and revenge in Zhao Yunzhu's eyes.
He knew that Zhao Yunzhu would definitely avenge the Zhao family.
He couldn't believe what Zhao Yunzhu could do to avenge the Zhao family.
Qin Zongzhi didn't want to regret it, nor did he want Zhao Yunzhu to regret it in the future.
So, he brought Zhao Yunzhu back.
"Thank you very much."
Zhao Yunzhu thanked him in a low voice. At this time, the maid knocked on the door and the food was delivered.
Qin Zongzhi hadn't eaten all day, so how could he be hungry at this moment?
He didn't want to eat at first, but when he saw that Zhao Yunzhu was a little hungry, he compromised.
The two had dinner in the room.
That night, Qin Zongzhi stayed in Zhao Yunzhu's room.
The next morning, Qin Zongzhi went to court early.
Zhao Yunzhu was probably tired from the whole night, so she didn't get up until the sun was high in the sky.
While Xiao Min was helping her wash up, she said, "Madam Yun, His Highness has asked the embroiderer to come and make some new clothes and jewelry for you today."
"The embroiderer arrived early and is waiting outside."
Zhao Yunzhu slowed down, drank half a cup of tea, and then ordered the maid to invite the person in.
The embroiderer had lived in the mansion for many years. She was in her early forties, with a plump figure and a clean face.
He looks especially kind when he smiles.
"Madam Yun, my surname is Tian. I have received your Highness's order to come and make new clothes for you. Please take a look and see what kind of material you like."
Nanny Tian bowed respectfully, then pointed to the four maids she brought behind her. The maids were holding trays filled with the most fashionable fabrics in Chang'an.
Zhao Yunzhu nodded slightly and glanced at the fabrics. They were bright and elegant, clean and gorgeous, with all kinds of styles, almost everything available.
She raised her hand and pointed at the only light moon-colored fabric.
The maid understood and spread out the cloth, revealing that the dark patterns on it were all light moon-colored. The patterns were auspicious cloud patterns.
"That's it."
"Thank you, Madam Tian."
When Aunt Tian saw that she had chosen the most plain and elegant fabric, she was surprised and paused for a moment, but she didn't say much.
How could servants like them have any say in the masters' preferences?
Nanny Tian took the measurements for Zhao Yunzhu and said, "Madam Yun, I will bring the clothes to you in three days."
After seeing off Nanny Tian, the maid Xiao Min invited in the nanny who was in charge of jewelry in the mansion.
There was no mistress in the Ninth Prince's mansion in the past.
The nanny in charge of jewelry usually manages the jewelry of the maids in the mansion.
"Madam Yun, my surname is Zhao. His Highness asked me to bring some jewelry here for you to choose from."
Behind Madam Zhao were also four maids. The trays in the maids' hands contained either red gold head ornaments, or head ornaments made of various red gold gemstones, and some head ornaments inlaid with precious jade.
There are also some silver head ornaments.
Zhao Yunzhu had seen all kinds of good things in the past.
But her current status was awkward, so she kept a set of red gold head ornaments and some silver head ornaments as well.
The maid Xiao Min sent the person away.
Zhao Yunzhu took out a silver hairpin and pinned it in her hair.
She dressed particularly simply today.
That night, Qin Zongzhi did not return home, and she did not ask anyone.
An Jing had her meal alone in the yard, and then asked Xiao Min to accompany her for a stroll in the mansion for a while.
This was her first time visiting Qin Zongzhi's mansion since he had his own.
Xiao Min followed behind her and served her. Zhao Yunzhu asked a question from time to time, and she answered it.
"I heard that the Ninth Prince didn't even have a concubine in his mansion."
"Xiao Min, is there really no one in this mansion who deserves the Ninth Prince's attention?"
Xiao Min replied without hesitation, "Madam Yun, in this mansion, His Highness has never treated anyone like this."
"I swear that everything I say is true."
The maid Xiao Min seemed afraid that she would not believe it, so she raised her hand to swear.
Zhao Yunzhu smiled helplessly, shook her head, and sighed, "You girl."
She had also heard some rumors about Qin Zongzhi.
In the Chang'an aristocratic family, no one looked down on Qin Zongzhi in the past. After all, it was particularly difficult for a prince without anyone to rely on to survive in the palace.
Moreover, Qin Zongzhi had been living away from home since he was young. If King Song had not found him, he would never have enjoyed such wealth and glory in his life.
As Qin Zongzhi grew older, the emperor suddenly became kind-hearted and often felt that he owed his son, so he gave him a mansion, gold, silver, treasures, and power.
The situation in Chang'an gradually changed. When someone wanted to marry into Qin Zongzhi's family, he looked down on them.
