Chapter 123 Concealment
"Do you want to be Mu Kang's concubine?" Jiang Yunxi asked her with a smile on her face, "Nannan has no interest in Mu Kang, and I will definitely not let him serve me in the future. If you are interested, you can..."
Before Jiang Yunxi finished speaking, Zhen Zhen interrupted her righteously, "Princess, if I really had such thoughts, the Queen Mother would beat me to death. The county horse is your husband, I would never have such thoughts."
Jiang Yunxi smiled faintly, "It's okay, I don't mind."
"I just think you two are a good match...it seems that the princess doesn't want to get married." Zhen Zhen was a little disappointed and prepared to get up.
"It's obviously my own marriage, but I have no control over everything from choosing a partner to setting a date." Jiang Yunxi looked at the little white flowers outside the window, with a hint of sadness in her eyes, "If I had a choice, I wouldn't want to marry anyone."
Zhenzhen was a little confused.
She took out two large boxes of silk and satin, "Princess, please pick out some silk first. It's time to start embroidering your wedding dress."
Jiang Yunxi looked at the butterflies jumping on the small white flowers and said, "Let the embroidery workshop embroider it."
Seeing that Jiang Yunxi was not interested, Zhen Zhen nodded, "Then the veil... still needs to be embroidered by the newlyweds themselves. Princess, why don't you embroider it yourself?"
Jiang Yunxi nodded, "Pick a piece of material that suits you, and I'll embroider it when the time comes."
Nan Nan took the opportunity to interrupt and said, "Yesterday, Concubine Jiang heard the imperial decree of His Majesty granting marriage, and she quarreled with His Royal Highness the Third Prince again. She happened to see His Royal Highness the Third Prince hanging out with her maid Lan'er, and she wanted to kill Lan'er immediately, but was stopped by His Royal Highness the Third Prince and locked up again."
Jiang Yunxi finally became interested. "That little girl is really not simple. He has so many beautiful concubines, but he can still take in Lan'er."
"The little grandson has been raised by Lan'er. I think Lan'er took this opportunity to get close to the third prince. The third prince also changed her name. Now her name is Xianglan." Nan Nan nodded.
"It does match the names of his concubines in his room." Jiang Yunxi said with sarcasm.
------------
Zhen Zhen propped up her head and watched Jiang Yunxi concentrating on embroidering the patterns on the red veil, her eyes filled with joy.
Nan Nan brought over some tea and sat on the other side of Jiang Yunxi. She tilted her head to look at what Jiang Yunxi was embroidering, secretly admiring how skillful Jiang Yunxi's hands were.
"Princess, what you are embroidering is..." Zhen Zhen leaned over and looked at the pattern of the flowers embroidered by Jiang Yunxi, "It seems to be... peach blossoms?"
"Yeah." Jiang Yunxi responded lightly.
"Princess, why are you embroidering peach blossoms?" Zhen Zhen opened her eyes wide with curiosity.
Jiang Yunxi recalled that in her previous life she had embroidered a complete wedding dress with great joy, just so that she could be with Zhao Zheyong forever.
But the reality is not as we wish.
Mu Kang has so many female confidants, so she would not have such unrealistic fantasies.
"Princess, Prince An is here." The little palace maid outside came running over to announce it.
Nan Nan immediately stood up and pulled Zhen Zhen aside.
Zhao Changyu walked in with a lunch box.
When Jiang Yunxi saw the food box, she immediately put down the needle and thread in her hand, rubbed her hands, and her eyes were full of anticipation.
Nan Nan couldn't help but snickering, thinking, "My princess always thinks that I'm not a foodie, but her thoughts are written all over her face, how can people not misunderstand?"
Zhao Changyu handed the lunch box to Nan Nan and asked her to take out everything.
He immediately caught a glimpse of the eye-catching red veil in Jiang Yunxi's hand, and glanced at it curiously, asking with a rather surprised tone, "Peach Blossom?"
"Yeah." Jiang Yunxi stared at the Longjing Su and responded casually.
Zhao Changyu didn't know what he was thinking about, and suddenly chuckled.
"Now, you don't leave the palace. Embroidering these things in the palace is just right to kill time." There seemed to be a strange tone in Zhao Changyu's tone.
Jiang Yunxi was careless and didn't notice it, but Nan Nan noticed it and laughed secretly beside her.
"What are you doing outside? Those guys are all gone." Jiang Yunxi grabbed another piece of peach blossom pastry and savored it carefully.
"You are too partial. What about the remaining ones?" Zhao Changyu smiled silently.
Jiang Yunxi seemed to have just thought of this. "I originally wanted to let them all go after the assessment. But now it seems that the situation in the capital is complicated, and it is not a good thing for them to stay in the capital. So let's keep Jiang Youcai, Jiang Youfei," she glanced at Zhao Changyu, "and Jiang Nianbai. For the others, give them enough money to go home and let them leave."
Nan Nan nodded, "Okay, I'll do it right away."
"You guys go out first." Zhao Changyu looked at Zhen Zhen and Nan Nan and said lightly.
Jiang Yunxi was quite surprised. She didn't know why Zhao Changyu wanted to talk about something without being noticed.
She nodded.
Nan Nan decisively pulled Zhen Zhen out of the door.
Jiang Yunxi put down the pastry in her hand and looked at Zhao Changyu seriously.
"I'm going to be away for a few days. Can you find a way to keep it a secret for me?" Zhao Changyu stood by the window, looking at the little white flowers outside, holding a teacup in one hand and the other hand behind his back, looking like he was worried about something.
Jiang Yunxi didn't expect that Zhao Changyu would entrust this matter to her, and was a little surprised for a moment.
Of course Jiang Yunxi was happy to do things like helping the future emperor to gain his favor.
"Why did you think of me?" Jiang Yunxi knew that Zhao Changyu was a thoughtful person, and sometimes she could not guess all of his plans.
Sometimes, if you can't see through his intentions, you will become a sword in his hand, which is really dangerous.
"I'm in the capital and don't know anyone." Zhao Changyu looked back at her and smiled faintly.
Jiang Yunxi smiled as he thought, "Well, the only person I know is being dragged into this by you. Forget it. Actually, I know you must have planted a lot of secret agents in the capital, but they are not suitable to be exposed at this time."
"Okay, I'll agree to it reluctantly." Jiang Yunxi curled her lips, raised her eyebrows, and continued to pick up the half piece of peach blossom pastry that she had not finished eating.
This time it was Zhao Changyu who was surprised. "Why don't you ask me what I'm doing?"
Jiang Yunxi shook her head. "You won't tell me. There's no point knowing it's fake."
She still wanted to know.
Zhao Changyu curled his lips and said, "I'll tell you when I come back."
Jiang Yunxi nodded.
Zhao Changyu looked at the glaring red on the veil and still felt a little uncomfortable.
"I go first."
Jiang Yunxi suddenly said, "Uncle, please be careful."
Zhao Changyu paused and curled his lips, "Okay."
When Zhao Changyu's back completely disappeared from Jiang Yunxi's sight, Jiang Yunxi called Nan Nan to his side and said, "Find someone to follow him. It's best not to let him find out. I just want to see if he will go south or north."
If they were heading north, it was undoubtedly for the matter of Anping Bridge, and Zhao Changyu had teamed up with a certain prince.
If you're heading south...
Jiang Yunxi accidentally crushed the pastry in her hand.
