After listening to Zai Fu's words, the young man glanced at the carriage, and then said: "Young lady, I will report to Lord Hou right away." After speaking, he ran to report.

After a while, Xiaoyaohou Yi Jiayu picked it up in person.Chen Xu got out of the carriage, greeted each other with Yi Jiayu, and then walked into Xiaoyaohou Mansion together.

"Why did you come all of a sudden? You didn't send someone to notify me in advance." Yi Jiayu let Chen Xu into the main hall and ordered the servant girl to serve tea.

Chen Xu looked at the Xiaoyaohou Mansion, which had obviously been renovated, and said with a smile: "It's a rare opportunity to leave the palace. I came here thinking of my second brother."

"Chen Xu, are you doing well in the palace?" Yi Jiayu asked with concern.

Chen Xu smiled, "It's nothing good or bad. It's just trying to survive."

"I've wronged you." Others didn't know, but Yi Jiayu was still very clear about what kind of life Chen Xu lived in the palace.

"I see that Second Brother's current situation is much better than before." There was a new look in the Hou Mansion.

"Isn't it all up to you? I'm working in the Ministry of Rites now, and with my salary, life is easier." Yi Jiayu himself is very knowledgeable, and he was born as a prince, so the Ministry of Rites is completely competent for official duties.If it weren't for his status, he could have been promoted now.

Chen Xu nodded, "Second brother, I feel relieved that you are doing well. The tribesmen, remember to take care of them. It is not easy for me to go out of the palace, and they may not want to see me. If there is any problem, please remember to send Give me the news." As she spoke, she called Zai Fu over, "Zai Fu has been by my side since I entered the palace, so she should be trustworthy. From now on, I will let her leave the palace every ten days. What does the second brother have? Just tell her the matter."

Yi Jiayu glanced at Zaifu, "Okay. The second brother knows. Chen Xu, you are in the palace, every step of the way is dangerous, don't always think about us, take care of yourself! Some time ago, I heard that the prince of Yunguo is against you. you……"

Chen Xu waved his hand, "Second brother, that matter is over. I will take care of myself. If one day... something happens to me in the palace, you have to lead your clansmen to live a good life. My father The emperor entrusted me to protect Yi Jia's entire family. If anything happens to me, this burden will fall on your shoulders, second brother."

Yi Jiayu frowned, "Chen Xu, don't say that. Second brother can rest assured that you are safe."

Chen Xu's eyebrows were curved, and he smiled charmingly. "I know."

She originally wanted to see her other siblings on this day, but unfortunately no one wanted to see her, so she had to give up in the end.Before leaving, she took out a few hundred taels of silver bills and handed them to Yi Jiayu. "I know the number is not much, second brother, you should consider using it."

Yi Jiayu shirked it for a long time before accepting it. "Chen Xu, don't give me money every time, you need it yourself in the palace, so keep more for yourself."

Chen Xu didn't speak, just smiled.That smile was calm and generous, which was rarely seen in the palace.

The carriage drove all the way into the palace, but saw a person hurrying past in front, followed by a group of court ladies trotting behind.

"Princess Enkang?" Chen Xu didn't see clearly.

"Back to Princess, yes." Zai Fu didn't see clearly, but she recognized that the maid following behind belonged to Princess Enkang.

"Catch up." Chen Xu told the coachman.

The coachman responded, and drove the carriage to catch up with Princess Enkang.Princess Enkang suddenly saw a carriage approaching and stopped.

The carriage stopped, Chen Xu got out of the carriage, and told the driver to leave first.

"Princess, this is..." When Chen Xu saw Princess Enkang's eyes were red, it was obvious that she had just cried.

Seeing that it was her, Princess Enkang burst into tears again. "Princess, I..."

Shilan Garden.

Princess Enkang and Chen Xu sat opposite each other. "I asked my father to refuse the marriage, and I was reprimanded by my father." Princess Enkang blinked to keep the tears from flowing out. "Actually, I already knew that it would be like this. But if I don't try it, I'm really not reconciled."

Chen Xu looked calm, and at the moment was slowly picking up the teacup and sipping tea. "The princess has decided?"

Princess Enkang looked up, "What to decide?"

"Have you decided not to marry Prince Xiyun?" Chen Xu lowered her eyes and did not look at Princess Enkang, but her eyes were full of light, and she was by no means as calm as she appeared on the surface.

"I..." Princess Enkang sighed, "What's the use of my decision? The emperor won't agree."

"If the princess has made up her mind, the emperor may not be able to force it. You are father and daughter after all, and he will never push you to a dead end." The corners of Chen Xu's mouth were slightly curved, and her voice was soft but steady, as if she had some kind of power , can be deceptive.

"What do you mean..." Princess Enkang frowned. She didn't want to get married, but she also didn't want to make the relationship too tense with the emperor.After all, she has no influence in the palace at all, once she loses the emperor's love and favor, she will have nothing. "No, I can't fight against my father."

"Then there is no other way. I heard that the Ministry of Rites has drawn up the procedures for the princess's wedding and reported it to the emperor. It seems that the princess will be married in a few days. Chen Xu congratulates the princess first." Chen Xu said and got up to salute .

"Chen Xu, I take you as a friend. You are the only outsider who can say these things in the palace." Princess Enkang certainly heard Chen Xu's irony, but she was soft-tempered, but she was not angry.She knew that Chen Xu was in favor of her refusal to marry, maybe because too few people agreed with it, so Chen Xu seemed very important.

Chen Xu sat down again, but not as casually as before. "Princess, if you refuse to marry, if you don't force it with death, you will definitely not succeed. You are the eldest princess, if such an accident occurs in your marriage, the subsequent princesses will have an excuse to refuse. Think about it, the emperor How could such a precedent be set?"

Princess Enkang really didn't think about this level. "In this way, even if I force you to die, my father will not agree. My mother and concubine passed away early, and no one in this palace will speak up for me anymore." When she said this, her voice choked up.

Chen Xu is no stranger to this feeling of helplessness.She was born in the court, and she has also seen the difficulty of a helpless princess and prince who has to rely on herself for everything.

"If the princess can't resist, then Chen Xu can only persuade you to accept it calmly. Otherwise, your life will be more difficult." Seeing what Princess Enkang wanted to say, she got up and said: "Princess, Princess Roujia is still waiting for me Back to the palace, please forgive Chen Xu for not being able to stay for long. No matter how this matter will be resolved, the princess must remember to take care of herself."

Princess Enkang personally sent her out of Shilan Garden. "Chen Xu, will you come to see me again?"

Chen Xu smiled, "As long as Princess Roujia doesn't ground me, Chen Xu will come."

Back to Yuyan Palace, Jing Hanyou just came back.I heard that Chen Xu went to Shilan Garden, and was planning to go out to look for it.

"I'm going to Princess Enkang, don't you worry?" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"I don't feel relieved if I can't see you." Jing Hanyou hugged her body, smelling the elegant scent of grass on her body. "Tomorrow, my father will go out of the city to go to Mingguo Temple to offer incense, and I will lead Feiyunqi to protect him. Stay well in the palace and wait for me to come back."

Chen Xu raised his eyebrows, "I want to see Princess Jue An."

Jing Hanyou was helpless, "Remember to go early and return early. I must see you when I return to the palace."

Chen Xu tilted her head, smiling charmingly and affectionately.

On the second day, Jing Hanyou left the palace early in the morning.When Chen Xu woke up, it was already late.She touched her cheek and barely supported herself.

Zaifu was already waiting outside the curtain. "Princess, are you awake?"

Under the service of Zai Fu, Chen Xu finished dressing.She stretched out her hand to pull out the golden hairpin, and Zaifu immediately knelt down in fright.

"Princess, the princess said that you can no longer wear this hairpin!"

"She didn't let me wear it because she was afraid that I would hurt myself again. But she didn't think about it. For no reason, why should I hurt myself? Zaifu, you are also a woman. Tell me, is suicide a more important thing than being humiliated?" A good choice?" Chen Xu said, inserting the golden hairpin into her hair with her own hands.

"Princess..." Zai Fu didn't dare to say anything, but now every time she saw this kind of golden hairpin, she had an ominous premonition.

"Okay, let's go see Princess Juan."

"You haven't eaten yet." Zai Fu got up and reminded.

Chen Xu looked at the sky outside, "Let's go to Qingxiang Pavilion to eat. It's almost noon, and Princess Jue'an will definitely let me eat with her." I can't eat anything when it's time.

"Yes." Zai Fu took out a cloak and put it on Chen Xu's body. "It's windy outside, and the princess is weak, so it's better to be careful."

The master and servant went to Qingxiang Pavilion.Princess Jue'an knew that Chen Xu was injured a few days ago, she saw it once but was frightened by the thick gauze on Chen Xu's neck.Seeing Chen Xu again at this time, he immediately ran over to look at Chen Xu's neck.

"Will it hurt?" The small hand touched the wound on Chen Xu's neck.

Chen Xu smiled and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Hui Jieyu said: "Seeing the princess recovering from injury, I finally let go of my heart."

"I'm sorry, Ma'am." Chen Xu dragged Jue'an into the main hall, and continued to teach Princess Jue'an how to draw.

It was almost noon, and two people, one big and one small, stopped to eat.Princess Jue'an must divide the food into two parts, one for herself and one for Chen Xu, and then she will be happy watching Chen Xu eat it.Fortunately, she is small and doesn't eat much, otherwise Chen Xu's appetite really wouldn't be able to handle it.

In the afternoon, the weather suddenly became gloomy.Hui Jieyu said: "It looks like it's going to rain."

"Then I'll take my leave first." Chen Xu got up, and when he walked to Hui Jieyu, he said softly: "The weather is changing at any time, and it's getting more and more difficult to predict. Your Majesty needs to take good care of Princess Jue'an, as for the others Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it."

Hui Jieyu didn't understand what she said so nonchalantly.But looking at what Chen Xu meant, he didn't seem to intend to explain.She immediately understood in her heart that these words must have a deep meaning.It doesn't matter if you don't understand, as long as you remember the words, it will always be useful.

The author has something to say: After sleeping all day today, I finally feel better.My friend gave me some small rags, the author didn’t know what to do with fabrics, so I had to make them into strips, which looked very good.

Kudos to my wit! !

In the next chapter, the plot should have a big turning point.
