Chapter 275 073: No turning back arrows (second update)

When Jie Jin came over, Chang Xi was about to eat dinner. When he saw him, he smiled and said, "Have you eaten? If not, use some together?"

Jie Jin didn't say anything, stepped forward and hugged her into his arms, felt the fragrance in his arms, and then he felt like he was alive.

It is rare to see him fragile. Chang Xi gently stroked his back and comforted his emotions. In fact, things have reached this point, which tests a person's patience. He has been under the reputation of Jie's family for more than 20 years. Now he is about to take off his feelings, and it is reasonable to feel uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Hu Niu, who was about to have a meal, stepped out knowingly, gave the space to the lovers, and fed the mosquitoes with Zhou Nan who was tactful outside.

After a long time, Chang Xi asked, "Have you seen the emperor?"

Jie Jin let go of Chang Xi after hearing this, but he still half hugged her, nodded at her, and said in a muffled voice, "I saw it."

In fact, it was just that. He was just a bad old man, but he was so troubled that he was uneasy for everyone. He was born to be rejected by this person.

But due to the situation and status, he had to bear it. After all, after more than twenty years, he knew the truth that a small impotence would cause trouble and big plans.

"Will it always come to great prosperity?" Chang Xi comforted him. In her opinion, the old emperor was not worthy of his position and should have stepped down and bowed, but such a rebellious word could not be said.

Anyway, the two of them had the same intentions, so he could understand what she said. He only saw Jin laughed softly, "I can't understand even if I live so much, I will suffer retribution. I can't save him by practicing Taoism."

Seeing that his mood improved, Chang Xi shouted and asked Hu Niu to bring in the dinner. This man was a man with iron rice and steel, and he had to eat enough to have the energy to work.

Jie Jin looked at the Yiyang dishes on the table, and then he felt his index finger move. "What I am most unacceptable to after coming to Beijing is food from the north. It's okay at Jie's family. After all, I am from Yiyang and I eat authentic Yiyang dishes. But after entering the palace, even if the food is imperial meal, it is not very suitable for my appetite."

Chang Xi brought him a chopstick to stir-fry lotus root, "The human stomach is the most difficult to conquer."

Xie Jinshen agreed with this.

He had no impression of his parents, and most of them were heard by others. When he entered the palace today, everyone said that he looked like a dead father. Even the old emperor was stunned when he looked at him, but he didn't feel much. A person who had only heard of him could not come from reality.

In fact, in his mind, the image of Jie He, the father, is a little more real.

"I will stay in the capital during this period." He said a little depressedly.

Chang Xi was not surprised that he would be left by the emperor. After all, he was the eldest grandson of the emperor and the old grandson of the emperor. It was reasonable for him to observe the eldest grandson from a close distance. "Then you can perform well and get his recognition, how much trouble will you save."

Jie Jin disagreed. The emperor thought he was in control of everything, but when the tiger grew old, there were many monkeys in the mountains who wanted to be the king, and the situation was still unclear.

Chang Xi opened a pot of Huadiao, poured a cup for him, and then filled himself with a cup, "Everything is legitimate, and then you will have much less resistance."

In fact, she knew very well that Jie Jin's life experience destined him to compete for this position, which was related to his wealth and life, but how to compete was a science.

But it wasn't her turn to worry about it. All she needed to do was to stabilize his rear. As for whether she would lose, she hadn't really thought about this question too much.

As the saying goes, there is no turning back arrow when you open the bow.

"How is your progress?" Jie Jin no longer mentioned his troubles, but asked Chang Xi worriedly, "In my opinion, you still have to send additional staff to you. After all, some people are unprepared..."

"No, so as not to alert the snake. I finally pulled the snake out of the hole, so I can't let them retreat." Chang Xi refused. She took a sip of Huadiao wine, "I have to catch the person so that the later plays can continue, otherwise my previous plays will be in vain."

When Wei Guangnan mistakenly recognized her, she decided to use her tricks, so after Wei Guangnan found someone to follow her secretly, she exposed herself directly in front of everyone.

It was God who helped her later. She accidentally met Han Yongzhu, which saved her a lot of trouble. Sure enough, Han Yongzhu was no longer the same as she was at that time. Obviously, she was already an insider, so the Madam Tao behind her would definitely take action, she would just wait.

Jie Jin was still not relieved, but he knew that persuading her would definitely be useless, so he could only be more careful and not let her fall into danger.

"I understand, I will accompany you to Princess Qianrong's Mansion."

Chang Xi frowned. She didn't want to get him involved in her own affairs. She was used to dealing with things by herself, but judging from his firm look, she knew that she could not convince him, so she had to allow him to accompany her.

The next day, she got up early and changed into clothes she had prepared early in the morning. The outfit was low-key and luxurious, which was in line with her usual dress style.

Jie Jin came early in the morning. After helping her into the sedan chair, he rode a horse and followed her.

The group rushed to Princess Qianrong's Mansion. Along the way, many people stopped to get off the horse and greeted Jie Jin. This was the closest celebrity around the emperor. Although he had not really recognized his ancestors, when Jie Jin appeared, everyone knew that he was the orphan of the deposed prince.

Since the deposed crown prince, no prince has been made the crown prince, and no one can guess the emperor's intention to establish a crown prince. Therefore, the eldest grandson of Jie Jin is also a powerful competitor, otherwise the emperor would not have given him an official position and stayed by his side to observe.

So naturally someone comes to burn his hot stove.

Jie Jin also bowed his favor to everyone openly, with an extremely humble attitude, which made many old men have a good impression of him.

As for Chang Xi in the sedan chair, she was glad that she did not choose to ride alone, otherwise she would have to be the target of others' attention. This would be bad. Now, through the sedan chair, others can at most guess, which is still within the range she can tolerate.

When he arrived at Princess Qianrong's mansion, he helped Chang Xi get out of the sedan chair, Chang Xi smiled and said, "You are now a popular chicken."

"You're the one who is so naughty." He looked like he couldn't do anything to her.

This made Chang Xi laugh, but she was still quite restrained in the eldest princess's mansion.

"What are you saying so happy?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Chang Xi stepped forward to greet Yuan Hao, "I have met Lord Yuan."

Yuan Hao smiled and said, "Why are there so many etiquettes? I knew you were here in the capital. I thought I would go to Yunlai Inn to meet you, but in the end I was too busy and couldn't make a trip..."

Chang Xi smiled, knowing that his words were just an excuse. In the capital here, Yuan Hao, as the son of the eldest princess, was watching every move. It would not be a good thing if he had been intimate with him, so this was not incomprehensible.

"My mother is not a sacrificial person. You will answer whatever she asks." Yuan Hao whispered before entering the inner room.

Chang Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Yuan, I didn't treat the eldest princess as a beast."

As for what she thought it was, she didn't say it, and Yuan Hao didn't ask.

However, Jie Jin shook Chang Xi's hand and signaled her to stand on her side.

Looking at the intimate actions of the two, Yuan Hao's eyes dimmed. There was nothing he had to do with him, but he was just a mean person who wanted to stand beside her to support her.

The nanny who was serving the eldest princess picked up the curtain and bowed to Yuan Hao and Jie Jin. Then she said, "The princess told her that she wanted to meet Mrs. Chang alone, and asked the two masters to sit outside."

Yuan Hao and Jie Jin didn't say anything. After giving Chang Xi a reassuring look, they followed the maid arranged by the nanny to go outside.

"Madam Chang follows me." When this nanny faced Chang Xi, she couldn't say good attitude, but she couldn't say bad.

Chang Xi didn't pick on her faults. As she lifted the curtain inside, she lifted the curtain several times before entering the warm pavilion where the eldest princess was. Looking at the magnificent house, she was not afraid, but stood up regularly, her eyes only staring at the acre of three-point land in front of her, and did not look around.

Princess Qianrong kept looking at Chang Xi. This was the first time she saw this woman. She thought she was a charming girl, but now she found that her behavior was so regular.

This made her first impression a little better.

The nanny who led Chang Xi in hurriedly demonstrated to Chang Xi and taught her how to greet the eldest princess.

Chang Xi just took a casual look and saluted the eldest princess pretty much, "The civilian girl has seen His Highness the eldest princess, and your highness is safe."

Princess Qianrong did not let her get up immediately, but instead held the nanny's hand forward, and stretched out her hand with Kou Dan to lift Chang Xi's chin and picked it up, which was looking at her appearance.

Chang Xi also looked up at the eldest princess without any weakness. She was indeed an aunt who was related to Jie Jin. The aunt and nephew looked quite similar, but the eldest princess was old and her face was a bit old, but she was still a beautiful half-old Xu girl.

"You are very brave."

Staring at her straight, the eldest princess said that she hadn't really met a few such bold ones.

"The eldest princess is bright and generous, and the young lady was stunned for a moment."

These words pleased the eldest princess, and she saw that she let go of Chang Xi's chin after laughing loudly, "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness, Princess." Chang Xi said with great thoughts.

The eldest princess sat back on the main seat, but although she was posing, she still pointed to the first position and signaled Chang Xi to sit down and reply.

Chang Xi sat down without being humble or arrogant, with a casual and generous posture, and was not at all restrained.

The eldest princess couldn't help but secretly exclaimed that as far as she knew, the Chang family was just a farmer girl, so where did she get the confidence that she acted so casually in front of her? Shouldn't it be because of fear and fear?

"Because of you, my eldest son of the princess rejected a good marriage, what do you say about this?"

Chang Xi had imagined in her mind that the princess would talk to her, but she never guessed that she would mention Yuan Hao’s marriage. This was really unfair. What does Yuan Hao’s not wanting to marry Han Yongzhu have to do with him? What’s the point of being guilty of being accused of?

So she looked directly at the eldest princess and said, "The young lady and Lord Yuan are just nodding friends. The young lady really doesn't understand what the eldest princess said."
