Chapter 317
what?
Ji Yunqing stood up with a bang.
"King Zhao is here?"
Seeing such a big reaction, the princess and the maid looked at her at the same time.
Ji Yunqing was seen walking back and forth anxiously with his hands clasped in front of him.
"Princess, what should we do?"
What is he doing here when he is fine?
She has just started to flirt with the princess, and she's already been caught in the act before she's even started to get close?
Thinking of the princess, Ji Yunqing's eyes lit up, he stood still abruptly, and instantly found his savior.
"Princess, let me hide quickly, don't let the prince find us, jump out of the window, right!"
Ji Yunqing remembered that under normal circumstances, this kind of character would usually jump out of the window to escape.
She never expected that one day she would end up like this.
Before the princess could stop him, she saw Ji Yunqing actually run to the window and reach out to open it.
Her pupils shrank, "No, people can see us outside!"
"Ah?" Ji Yunqing's fingertips had already touched the hard and cold window, but then he retracted them.
She looked at the princess helplessly: "Then, what should we do? The prince is coming soon."
At this time, the princess was also distracted by Ji Yunqing's thoughts, and nervously commanded: "Quick, hurry into the inner room!"
"okay"
Ji Yunqing trotted over and dived in.
As soon as the people entered, the prince outside stepped over the threshold.
"Princess, was there anyone here just now?"
The princess looked at the still moving curtain and said in a calm tone, "No, it was a young maid who had just arrived at the main courtyard. She was young and timid, and didn't dare to come out to meet strangers."
King Zhao frowned in confusion: "Why did you find such a shy maid?"
“It’s just a rapport.”
The princess stepped forward, took the tea brought by the maid, poured it for Prince Zhao herself, and changed the subject: "My Lord, why did you come here suddenly today?"
King Zhao glanced at the inner room meaningfully, and when the princess looked up, he withdrew his gaze:
"I will be attending the Spring Ploughing Ceremony in a few days. The Emperor wants to meet the grandchildren of the various prefectures. Princess, please make arrangements for me when the time comes."
King Zhao thought for a moment and said: "A few of the older ones should go, and the younger ones should be able to walk and talk, not too useless."
If he can't even walk or talk, there's no point in going, it will only cause trouble for the child.
The princess naturally responded with a smile: "Yes, I also think that I can take the children to see the world."
"We need to take Ruirui with us. He was too naughty a few days ago and took the children and grandchildren of the master and several adults to climb trees. The emperor asked him a few questions."
This surprised the princess. The officials were quite gossipy, but they would report even the little things between children to the emperor.
In this case, the princess thought for a moment and said, "Then I will ask Concubine Ji to prepare in advance so that she can go with me to take care of the child."
Ji Yunqing, who was hiding in the inner room and eavesdropping, felt his heart skip a beat. Ruirui is still young. Is it time for him to open a new map and go out to explore?
And let her follow...
There are so many people around, what should she do with her re-employment plan?
If the princess found out that she was having an affair with the concubine, or if the concubine found out that she was having an affair with the princess, it would obviously not be a good ending.
Ji Yunqing was so worried, so why didn't she pretend to be sick?
But King Zhao's next sentence solved the problem.
When King Zhao heard the words "Ji Shufei", he immediately denied it: "No! She can't go!"
"Your Majesty?"
The princess was surprised. Could it be that they were letting the child go alone?
This is too ridiculous.
Or, where will Concubine Ji be by then?
Yes, Ruirui’s biological father is most likely the prince’s brother.
We can’t let them meet and rekindle their old relationship.
As the princess was thinking this, she heard King Zhao say, "If the child's biological mother also goes with him, then there will be too many people. It's simply outrageous!"
King Zhao tapped his fingers on the table and quickly made a decision: "When the time comes for Mother to go, take the concubine with you and let her accompany Mother to relieve her boredom. You don't need to stay with Mother all the time.
Zhiyue is a little girl, she will inevitably be scared when going outside, let Concubine Xu accompany her, Concubine He will also go, your pregnant cousin will stay in the mansion, as for the others, don't bring them."
The princess reminded: "Your Highness, Ruirui is only a year old, he is even younger, isn't he more scared..."
King Zhao sneered: "What is he afraid of? He dares to instigate others to climb trees with him when they meet for the first time.
As the legal mother, you can take care of her more. If you don't have time, you can let the concubine take care of her. I think she is quite free, so it's settled!"
After hearing that the prince had arranged everything, the princess said no more.
Now that I think about it, the prince didn’t agree with Ji Yunqing going there because he was worried that he would raise another nephew or niece, right?
Thinking of this, the princess stopped trying to persuade him.
After thinking about it for a while, the princess brought up another matter: "Your Majesty, why don't you take your concubine Hou and concubine Lan with you, so that you can at least have someone to serve you."
"Need not!"
The princess was not surprised to be rejected.
After all, King Zhao might not go into the backyard for a month or two when he was busy.
After King Zhao finished explaining what happened, he did not leave immediately.
And asked: "Is it almost time for lunch? I will eat here!"
The princess was surprised. Why didn't the prince leave immediately this time? "Prince, there is still half an hour..."
"The King is not in a hurry"
King Zhao, who was not in a hurry, rubbed his eyebrows and looked tired.
"Go take a break first"
Having said that, King Zhao got up and went to the inner room.
"Hey, Your Majesty——"
The princess suddenly remembered that Ji Yunqing was still inside, and hurried to stop him.
Unfortunately, he was not stopped.
I could only watch the prince go in.
At this time, Nanny Lou came over. She was not in the main courtyard just now, so she didn't know that Ji Yunqing was coming.
"Princess, the prince is exhausted. Why don't you go and see him to show your concern?"
No matter how much Nanny Lou wanted to hold someone else's child, what she hoped most was that the princess could get pregnant again.
Isn't this closer than hugging someone else's child?
So while the prince was around, she tried her best to instigate him.
Since the prince and the princess are together, there is always some hope that the child will come.
"Mammy, the prince wants to rest and didn't tell me to go in." Although the princess said this, she remembered that Ji Yunqing was also inside and couldn't help but worry.
She really wanted to go and see what was going on.
Nanny Lou watched the princess grow up, so she naturally saw the princess's hesitation.
She thought to herself, let me help you, so she stretched out her hand and pushed the man in.
"Princess, you must be tired too, why don't we go in and rest together?"
The prince never cared about such trivial matters, let alone this was the princess. After Nanny Lou pushed the person in, she thought anxiously.
Inner room
As soon as the princess entered, she saw the prince lying on the couch where she usually sat. She first looked around, but saw no trace of other people.
