Chapter 59 ;
Chapter 59; Thanks for the kindness
"I wonder why Her Royal Highness the eldest princess called the common girl over?"
On the way here just now, she had been thinking about a question.
The eldest princess has a noble status, but she is just an unpopular eldest daughter of the Xu family, and she has been away from the capital for ten years.
In a place like the capital where there are many noble ladies, she is really a little transparent.
I really can't figure out how she could be summoned by this noble and extraordinary woman in front of her?
Even just now, she had thought about whether she had offended this person in some way, or whether she had made this person dissatisfied because of certain actions.
But as soon as she entered the door, she gave up the idea.
After all, the eldest princess spoke in a very gentle tone and always had a kind smile on her face.
He didn't look like he was looking for trouble at all.
In fact, if you think about it, it's impossible for the other party to come here to cause trouble. How long has it been since she returned to the capital?
And during the time she came back, she basically stayed at Xu's house, and only went out for a few walks in the past few days.
During this period, I didn't have any conflicts with anyone. The only one other than the Xu family was Prince Yun.
Let’s not talk about the former. They are the ones that the emperor wants to suppress. The eldest princess is a member of the emperor’s faction. Naturally, it is impossible to cause trouble for her because of the Xu family.
As for Prince Yun, the emperor's attitude has been revealed, and it is impossible for the eldest princess to go against her own brother because of him.
"Mama Wang didn't tell you?"
The eldest princess still had a smile on her face.
Grandma Wang beside her immediately took over the conversation, first stating how much her Royal Highness loved the eldest prince, and then continued what she had just said in the garden.
It is Her Royal Highness the Princess who invited her over, and she wanted to express her gratitude.
"It's also a coincidence that the daughter of the people is meeting. His Royal Highness the First Prince and His Royal Highness Prince Jin have already given many rewards."
"How dare I be thanked by Her Royal Highness the eldest princess again?"
The eldest princess waved her hand.
"They are them, I am alone."
"Mother Wang, go get the things I asked you to get."
Grandma Wang bowed and left. After a while, she brought out a palm-sized rosewood box.
"I heard that a few days later, you would get hairpins. This thing was a reward from the late emperor when I was in the palace in my early years. I will give it to you today."
"See if you like it?"
Lu Yaoyao stood up quickly.
"Your Highness, daughter of the people"
Knowing that she was going to refuse, the eldest princess continued with a smile, "The elder gave it to me, so I can't refuse it."
"Thank you, Her Royal Highness the Princess, for the reward."
This is what people say, no matter how pretentious it is, it just means you don’t know what is good or bad.
After thanking her, she respectfully took the box from Grandma Wang's hand.
"Open it and see if you like it."
Lu Yaoyao responded and opened the box carefully, and saw a pure gold Yunfeng hairpin lying flat on the silky red silk.
The Yunfeng hairpin is made of hollow craftsmanship. It is small, exquisite and extraordinary. The hairpin is inlaid with red gems.
It's very beautiful. Even though she has seen many exquisite jewelry from later generations, she can't help but sigh in her heart.
You must know that although the jewelry of later generations is exquisite and the craftsmanship is excellent, the tools used are not comparable to those of today's ancient times.
The craftsmanship used in the golden hairpin in front of me was definitely not something that ordinary craftsmen could make in ancient times.
One can imagine how valuable it is.
"It's very beautiful. The civilian girls like it very much. Thank you, Your Highness."
She saluted again.
"As long as you like it, it's not a waste of my careful selection."
Here, as soon as the eldest princess finished speaking, a maid walked in from outside.
Grandma Wang walked over quickly, but after a moment, she returned to the middle of the main hall.
"Your Highness, Prince Yun has arrived."
Hearing this, the smile on the eldest princess's face stopped, and a hint of disgust appeared in the depths of her eyes.
Although she quickly covered it up, Lu Yaoyao still saw it.
I can't help but think of Prince Yun's reputation. It seems that the eldest princess is also very dissatisfied with this close minister of the emperor.
"You go down and say hello first. I still have something to say to Miss Lu."
Grandma Wang bowed respectfully and left.
When you go out, don't forget to greet all the maids waiting beside you.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yaoyao was a little surprised.
It doesn’t have to be so grand to receive a Prince Yun, right?
Why don't you even leave anyone to wait on the eldest princess?
As if seeing her doubts, the eldest princess smiled and said, "There are some things that I can't say to my servants here."
Lu Yaoyao understood instantly.
It seems that the eldest princess asked her to come here, and this expression of gratitude is only secondary. What she wants to say next is the real purpose.
"The day before yesterday, King Jin came to the house to look for me."
Lu Yaoyao didn't answer and listened very carefully.
"I talked about some things between the Xu family and Prince Yun. My birthday party today is very uneventful."
"I would like to ask you again and again to take good care of you and not let anyone plot against you."
Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao was a little stunned, but he quickly recovered.
"It's causing trouble to His Highness."
The eldest princess had been staring at her, and when she saw her knowledge, she was stunned for a moment and then recovered.
I was shocked and quickly reacted.
This girl may have already known about Xu Zhao and Gao's plan.
Thinking about what happened in the garden just now, she couldn't help but shake her head in her heart.
Prince Jin is really worried, this girl is obviously well prepared.
"It's too troublesome to talk about. I've seen this kind of thing too much in most of my life."
This is true at all. After all, he has fought all the way from the palace. Not only has he seen a lot, but he has also experienced a lot.
"Since you already know, I won't hide it anymore."
"Today Prince Yun is afraid that he will not let Xu Zhao and the Gao family go, and the impact will certainly not be small."
"I'm afraid you will also be affected a lot by then. Do you need my help?"
She, Lu Yaoyao, is Xu Zhao's daughter after all. If Xu Zhao and the Gao family were embarrassed in the eldest princess's mansion,
It won't be too good for her either.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."
"As the saying goes, you will never survive if you do it yourself."
"Some things are unavoidable, not today, but also tomorrow."
She knew very well what the eldest princess meant. She wanted to control the influence and didn't want everyone to know what Prince Yun had done to Xu Zhao and his wife today.
thus affecting her.
However, she didn't want to deal with it this way.
She is not the protagonist. If something happens to Xu Zhao, the most she will do is to be despised by others. What's the point?
She didn't care at all. Besides, given her current situation, there were few people in the capital who didn't despise her.
Not long ago, weren't there people who said she was a peasant girl who couldn't stand on the stage?
Of course, she didn't care on the one hand, but on the other hand, she finally borrowed Prince Yun's sword without taking action herself.
Naturally, I have to take good care of Xu Zhao.
Let him also enjoy what it means to be ruined.
Back then, regardless of his kindness, he buried her mother in Chuchu and broke up with the Lu family. As a result, the Lu family was laughed at in Jiangdong for many years.
This is called tit for tat.
