Wealth and glory seek stability

When she was almost done washing, Jian Xi stood up from the bathtub. Immediately, a maid came forward and first used a clean and soft cotton cloth to absorb the water on her body, and then used a soft silk cloth to wipe off the tiny water droplets on her skin, and did this twice.

Jian Xi put on her clothes, took the towel that the maid behind her was using to twist her hair, and casually made a beautiful bun on her head.

This was her own invention. There were no hair dryers in that dynasty, and it took a long time for hair to dry. Tying hair and towel together could speed up drying.

Walk out of the room.

It was indeed Caixia, Lai Xi and Caiyun.

She has been busy today and hasn't had a chance to talk to the little girls.

"Sister, this is great news." Caixia looked happy.

Lai Xi stepped forward and held Jian Xi's hand. "Sister Caisang told me, but I didn't believe it until I saw you in person."

Caiyun was also relieved, "Sister finally made it."

Jian Xi smiled and hugged a few people and sat down.

She ordered the maids behind her, "Go to the kitchen and bring a table of food and two bottles of wine. There is some silver in my dressing box. Take out ten taels of silver and give it to Madam Wang in the kitchen, saying thank you for her hard work."

The people in the Wangfu Family Banquet kitchen must have been busy all day, so if you want them to work, they must not do it for nothing.

Although she seems to be favored, she will not get carried away.

Normally, two taels of silver would be enough for a small gathering of a few people. Now that my status has changed, I certainly can’t be as stingy as before.

The maids received the order and nodded and left, "Yes, young lady."

There were only a few people left in the living room, so Jian Xi let go, "Huh~ I'm so tired, come sit down and chat."

There was a soft couch in the compartment inside for taking naps in the summer. Jian Xi took off her shoes and sat on it first.

"Come up quickly, what are you standing there for?" She couldn't help but call out to a few people. The soft couch was more than twice the size of a normal bed. It was covered with a velvet carpet and had backrests on all four sides.

Lai Xi was the first to go up, and they all seemed to have returned to the time when they lived together as children, talking about everything.

Mother Wang was very supportive and prepared a very exquisite meal.

A few of them drank and talked about their families since childhood and the embarrassing things that happened after entering the palace... They were so unhappy.

Caiyun was the most attentive. She noticed Jian Xi's emotions and asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Jian Xi held up her chin and said, "It's okay. I just thought that you are all grown up now and you all know what you should do in the future. I also have things I want to do. I don't know when we will meet again."

Caixia was the most curious about Jianxi, "Sister knows what we want to do, so what does Sister want to do the most?"

Jian Xi drank too much and her brain was a little fuzzy. She closed her eyes and thought for a long time. Caixia almost thought she was going to fall asleep.

"I want to run the shop well. I will be free once I leave the palace. I want to learn horse riding and then travel to famous mountains and rivers. I had no money and no time before, but now I am free." This is indeed what she wants to do most.

Caiyun asked in confusion: "Sister will be of marriageable age next year and can get married. Doesn't your sister have a favorite man in her heart?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the remaining two people looked at Jian Xi.

Who says that girls don’t have love thoughts? Even Caixia, who likes quietness the most, can’t help but have fantasies about her future husband.

Jian Xi tapped the foreheads of the three people one by one and said, "You guys, really!"

Then she gave the three of them a final lesson, "Of course I have thought about it. The man of my dreams must wear a golden armor and ride on a colorful cloud to marry me."

"Ah? But such a person is a god, right? He is not even a human being. Does my sister really like such a person?" Lai Xi muttered.

Jian Xi chuckled, "Fake!"

Pick up a peanut, "Look, this peanut is red on the outside, but white on the inside, just like people, each person is wrapped in a different skin, we have no way of knowing what is inside, only by slowly understanding, can we peel off the skin and see what this person is like inside.

I'm not in a hurry. I've been cautious in the palace for so many years, so I'll relax for a few years first."

Thinking back to her memory, all the men who expressed their feelings to her were rejected by her one by one.

This is true for Gao Yunhuai and Baili Rongxuan as well.

Emotionally, she is confused. She doesn't trust anyone and won't give herself to anyone she is uncertain about.

In her previous life, there were people pursuing her, but she was unwilling to try. She would try every way to test them every time, but of course the final result was always failure.

Human nature cannot withstand temptation.

She wanted to see more mountains and seas. Maybe with a broader mind, she would know how she should live her life.

Should I take a gamble and choose a man to spend the rest of my life with, or find someone to bear my child through surrogacy?

Of the two, she prefers the latter.

Shen Nanxing will meet the woman he likes in the future, start his own family, and have his own life, and she will slowly fade out of Shen Nanxing's life.

After twenty-seven years of lonely life in her previous life, she wanted a child of her own so much.

She had fantasized more than once that if she had a child, she would double compensate her child for what she had never received.

As he was thinking, he fell asleep with a smile on his face.

"Don't worry about it. My sister is the most beautiful among us. There are peach blossoms blooming one after another around her, and she is the only one who gets to pick on others." Lai Xi drank one cup after another and was already drunk.

Caixia and Caiyun looked helpless. They settled the two people down, asked the maid to clean the table, and asked for two quilts.

Just like when we were kids, the four of us huddled together and slept soundly.

This night, some people are destined to have no sleep.

Jin Palace.

Xuanyuan Qiyuan threw away everything he could.

"presumptuous!"

The servants serving in the study were trembling.

"Get out of here!"

"Yes."

"Wait, go to Gao's house and call Shu Ping over. Tell him I have something to discuss with him."

"Yes."

When Gao Yunhuai arrived at Prince Jin's Mansion, he immediately noticed an unusual atmosphere.

"What's going on here?"

"Look for yourself." Xuanyuan Qiyuan pushed the note in front of him to Gao Yunhuai.

Gao Yunhuai read through the entire thing at a glance. After finishing, his face was solemn. "Is this true?"

"How can the news from the spies in the palace be false?"

"I don't think this matter is as simple as it seems."

"Is that old man crazy? That idiot Xuanyuan Chaocheng actually wants to make him the crown prince." Xuanyuan Qiyuan still can't believe it.

He was trained as the crown prince since he was young, but suddenly he became an abandoned pawn. No one would believe it.

"Any news from Ah San?"

"Not yet. I gave him a deadline, which is tonight." Xuanyuan Qiyuan leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and thought about what went wrong. "Shu Ping, do you think my father has given up on me?"

Gao Yunhuai sat down, as steady as a rock, "No hurry, the news hasn't come back yet."

After a while, Asan appeared like a ghost, with a smell of blood on his body.
