Lan'er and Chu Yu stood outside the East Palace.

Lan'er stepped forward and bowed to the guard guarding the gate, "Please inform, His Royal Highness Sixth Prince please see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The guard guarding the gate quickly glanced at Chu Yu, and stepped aside, "The prince has given an order. If His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince asks for an audience, you can let His Highness the Sixth Prince come in directly. Please, I will guide you."

Chu Yu murmured in her heart that the prince's elder brother was quite caring, and smiled gratefully at the guard, and after he opened the gate, he stepped over the threshold and walked in.

Lan'er followed him step by step, but another guard stopped her, "I'm sorry, His Highness the Crown Prince also said, let His Highness the Sixth Prince go in and find him alone."

Chu Yu frowned, but nodded quickly, and turned to look at Lan'er who was looking at him in embarrassment, "You just wait here for me, I should be back soon."

Lan'er bit her lower lip, looked at him worriedly, and nodded.

Chu Yu smiled at the guard standing aside, "Can I trouble you to take care of her for me?"

The guard who was chosen by him blushed when he saw his smile, and nodded at him in a trance.

Seeing that he agreed to come down, Chu Yu smiled gently, followed the guard who led the way and walked in.

The East Palace is much bigger than he imagined, with a nine-curved corridor, and there are large areas of rockery and flower forests, one clump after another, and it looks like it is usually taken care of by someone.

If someone hadn't led the way, Chu Yu would definitely have lost his way here.

Seeing that his personality is approachable, the guard who led the way was also willing to chat with him, "Although His Royal Highness is usually very busy, he has a very good personality. He sometimes comes to trim the flower garden himself. Look, the tree over there is His Royal Highness. I took care of it myself."

Chu Yu was a little surprised now, he didn't expect that the prince who manages everything every day would actually do such a thing.

He looked in the direction the guard pointed, only to find that the tree he was talking about was cut in a mess, and a bald man appeared among a group of bushy-haired people protruding from the neatly trimmed bushes.

Chu Yu's eyes twitched, "..."

How should I put it, this prince is indeed leisurely and elegant, but this technique really makes people disagree.

The guard was very proud of this matter, "His Royal Highness is very kind, he is very gentle to our servants, never punishes people casually, and often sends us extra monthly regulations."

Chu Yu immediately had a much better impression of the Crown Prince whom he had never met.

They walked and chatted for an unknown amount of time, when a young eunuch hurried over, shouting "Finally found you" and whispered a few words into the guard's ear.

The guard's face changed, and he turned his head to look at Chu Yu in embarrassment, "Your Highness Sixth Prince, I have an urgent matter here, and I can't send you to His Highness the Crown Prince. Can you please go there alone?"

If this matter happened to someone else, he would definitely get angry and feel that he was perfunctory to himself, but Chu Yu has always had a good temper, so he just nodded casually when encountering such a thing, "Okay, please tell me what's next. Tell me the way to go, and I will go there by myself."

The guard nodded gratefully, told him briefly how to go next, made a sequence, and hurriedly followed the little eunuch.

Chu Yu sighed, and went on the road of looking for the prince alone.

It's just that he walked along the route the guards told him just now and felt more and more wrong. He could still see the guards and maids patrolling around the palace, but now he couldn't see anyone.

He looked around for a while, stood still and recalled what the guard had just described to him, and based on his general impression and understanding of the layout of the palace, he walked around for a while.

It was only when he came to a courtyard that he realized that something was wrong. This side hall did not look like the prince's residence, but rather... a place for the prince's wives and concubines to live.

Chu Yu groaned inwardly, and quickly turned around to leave this place. In this palace, ordinary men are not allowed to enter and leave the concubine's residence at will, even if he broke in accidentally.

But just as he turned around, he heard a charming scolding voice, "Who are you?"

Chu Yu turned around, and saw a little maid in a rouge-colored palace dress with her waist down, looking at him.

Seeing his face, the little maid was in a daze for a moment, and soon blushed, her eyes dodged, and she stammered, "Who are you? Why...why are you here!"

Although it was still fierce, the volume was obviously much lower, and it sounded a little lacking in confidence.

Chu Yu sighed and explained, "I am Chu Yu, the sixth prince. I came here to visit His Highness the Crown Prince. I just got lost and went in the wrong direction. I don't intend to offend."

The little maid looked at him dubiously, "You are talking nonsense, how could you walk in the East Palace alone, this is not a place for you to stroll around, not to mention that the palace of His Royal Highness is completely different from this place, just follow me Go see the princess."

Chu Yu rubbed her temples with a headache, she didn't expect that she could actually go in the wrong direction.

He touched it, and then remembered that he left the waist badge with Lan'er when he changed his clothes today. At this time, no one could prove his identity, so he could only nod helplessly, "Okay."

We can only hope that the Crown Princess is also more talkative, and if he doesn't pester him, let him go back to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The news that he came to visit His Highness the Crown Prince must have reached His Highness the Crown Prince, if he arrives late, I don't know what troubles will arise.

The little maid led him into the palace, and when she met some maids, she whispered a few words to them, and then led him all the way to the inner palace.

She didn't even dare to look at Chu Yu's face, she just lowered her head and said fiercely to him, "You wait here, I'll go in and report to the Crown Princess."

Chu Yu touched his nose innocently and nodded.

After a while, I saw the little maid come out, and her expression eased a lot, "You follow me in, Her Royal Highness wants to see you."

Chu Yu hesitated for a moment, "This...isn't right."

This little maid accompanied Jiang Ying into the palace when she was married, and she didn't pay much attention to the complicated etiquette in the palace. Hearing what he said, she immediately said loudly, "His Royal Highness doesn't mind, what are you afraid of, just follow me .”

Chu Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she didn't expect to be reprimanded by a court lady one day, so she had to follow her in.

As soon as I walked in, I saw an extremely beautiful woman leaning on the beauty's couch, fiddled with the tassels on the blanket on the beauty's couch with one hand, and muttered, "Hmph, Chu Qing's brother must be nothing. nice one."

Chu Yu paused, "..."

It was as if he had heard something extraordinary.

He hesitated on the spot for a moment, not knowing whether to pretend he didn't hear anything or to come forward to meet him in a graceful manner.

The little maid coughed softly and reminded in a low voice, "Crown Princess, someone brought it to you."

Chu Yu bowed his head and arched his hands, "Greetings to the Crown Princess."

Jiang Ying raised her head lazily, and was stunned for more than ten seconds when she saw his face.

It wasn't until he reacted that he felt that his current posture was indecent. He sat up suddenly, cursed a curse word, and hurriedly straightened his skirt.

After she pulled up the pleated skirt, she coughed a few times, sat down dignifiedly, showed a shy smile to Chu Yu, and greeted him shyly, "Hello."

Only Chu Yu could see Xiaotuanzi of the system lying on his shoulder, and couldn't help complaining, "Can this woman change her face?"

Chu Yu smiled awkwardly.

He just remembered, isn't this His Royal Highness the Crown Princess the eldest daughter of the Minister of Rites, Jiang Qian's older sister Jiang Ying?

When we met today, the two sisters have inherited the beauty of Mrs. Jiang's old lady, but their personalities are indeed very different. One is lively and charming and the other is weak and pure, which is surprising.

Jiang Ying waved at him, "Your Royal Brother, you are welcome, come here and let me see you."

Xiaotuanzi rubbed against Chu Yu's ear, and said in a milky voice, "Yuyu, don't go there, this old woman looks a little disturbed and kind."

The corners of Chu Yu's ears itched from being rubbed by it, she rubbed her ears involuntarily, and stepped forward a few steps, getting closer to her, but still kept a proper distance, not so intimidating.

Jiang Ying frowned a little dissatisfied, but she also learned some etiquette after entering the palace, knowing that there are many broken rules in this palace, so she didn't say anything.

She looked at it carefully and said with emotion, "Your mother and concubine must be a peerless beauty who overwhelms the country and the city."

Otherwise, how could such a person with outstanding appearance be born.

Jiang Ying's mother came from a general's family, and grew up in the frontier since she was a child. She didn't learn the rules of the capital. In addition, Jiang Yi, the Minister of Rites, doted on her, and she was lawless and neglected to discipline her daughter.

Jiang Ying grew up carefree since she was a child, she doesn't pay much attention to etiquette, and her mind is more open than many boudoir girls.

The pursuit of beauty is a fashion in the capital, and Jiang Ying is no exception. She was willing to enter the palace because she took a look at the prince from afar on the draft day and thought he was good-looking.

At this time, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that Chu Yu was very pleasing to the eye, so she wanted to have a few more words with him.

Chu Yu has never paid much attention to his appearance, but he also knows that his appearance can easily make some people get close to him unconsciously.

At this time, if she directly praised him, he might not take it to heart, but hearing her mention his mother and concubine, and praised her as a beauty, he felt a little happy, and his impression of this princess was much better.

He scratched his earlobe embarrassingly, "The Crown Princess is admirable, my mother and concubine are indeed a remarkable beauty."

His tone was very proud, and there was a rare trace of childishness on his usually calm face, and the expression on that face was more lively and vivid, making people's eyes straight.

Jiang Ying originally wanted to get closer to them, but she hadn't actually met his concubine mother. Seeing what he said, she knew that she had said something that made him happy, so she smiled at him and waved her hand, "Come here! Come, why not chat with me for a while, I don't know much about this palace yet."

Chu Yu tilted his head and thought for a while, thinking to himself that it would be okay to see the prince later, so he nodded kindly.

Jiang Ying originally wanted him to sit next to her, but seeing that he insisted, she had to ask the maid to move a chair and let him sit opposite her, and the two chatted happily.
