I was divorced because I got pregnant during the lean years, so I went back to my parents’ home and

"Mrs. Tong, is Miss Tong okay?"

Ji Xiaobei is a reasonable person. Ji Decai bumped into someone, so as the owner, she is also responsible.

Mrs. Tong glared at her and said, "Isn't it just a jewelry store? What's so great about it?"

Ji Xiaobei lowered the curtain and ignored the crazy woman.

"Let's go, Xiaoshengzi!" said Ji Xiaobei.

When the young man heard his master's order, he pulled Ji Decai and walked away.

"Hey, you guys are leaving after bumping into someone, what's going on?" Mrs. Tong shouted in a shrill voice.

When the coachman heard the lady's cry, he jumped off the shaft, rushed to Xiao Shengzi, snatched the whip from his hand and threw it to the ground.

Jiaojiao said angrily: "Mrs. Tong, why are you so unreasonable? We have apologized!"

Ji Xiaobei smiled and said, "She wants to attract the attention of the people behind her!"

Jiaojiao looked behind her and saw a man riding a tall horse, looking very majestic, with several guards following him.

"It's Prince Qing!" Ji Xiaobei said in a low voice.

Jiaojiao took a breath of cold air.

Prince Qing did that to Tong Menglou last night, but to outsiders, Prince Qing looked upright and dignified.

Bah! A wolf in human skin!

Jiaojiao cursed.

Madam Tong got off the carriage and walked around it a few times. At this time, Prince Qing had already arrived on horseback.

"Mrs. Tong, what's wrong? Is the carriage broken down?"

Prince Qing pulled the reins of his horse and asked, a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.

Madam Tong bowed to Prince Qing and said indignantly: "It's okay to be hit by a donkey cart. I disturbed Prince Qing. Please forgive me!"

The coachman hurriedly moved to the side again.

Tong Menglou, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but shiver.

"Is Miss Tong in the carriage? Is she okay?" Qing Wangchao glanced at the carriage.

"Thank you, Prince Qing, for your concern. My daughter is fine. She just hit her head!" Mrs. Tong smiled flatteringly.

Prince Qing said nothing and looked at the donkey cart behind him.

Ji Xiaobei had no choice but to get off the donkey cart, bowed and said, "I greet King Qing!"

Prince Qing stared at Ji Xiaobei and asked, "Did you get the invitation from the princess?"

Ji Xiaobei nodded and said yes.

Prince Qing looked at Ji Xiaobei's plain and elegant face again.

Being used to seeing women with heavy makeup, he was a little surprised at first sight of such a beautiful woman.

Even without makeup, her skin was still as white as jade, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

The person in front of him was as beautiful as a lotus flower emerging from clear water, and he was a little stunned.

Madam Tong was a shrewd person and had long understood Prince Qing's thoughts. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

Madam Tong wants her daughter to marry into the prince's palace so that the Tong family can make friends with Prince Qing, whose power is gradually growing.

Prince Qing had already done that to Meng Lou last night.

He was so brazen as to look at others in front of her.

Madam Tong smiled and called out, "Prince Qing..."

Prince Qing hastily closed his eyes and said, "I will leave first. If it's okay, go to the horse farm. Don't keep the princess waiting for too long."

Although Ji Xiaobei lowered his head, he could already feel the burning gaze of Prince Qing.

Ji Xiaobei raised his eyelids and thought: I didn't use enough force last night and didn't cripple him.

Prince Qing kicked his horse's belly and rode away.

Ji Xiaobei said, "You sent such a good girl into the tiger's mouth... Madam Tong, take care of yourself!"

He turned around and got in the car, and said to Xiao Shengzi: "Shengzi, let's go!"

Xiao Shengzi picked up the donkey whip, spat at the coachman over there, and drove Ji De away.

She was not quite sure what the relationship between Tong Menglou and Aqi was.

Their eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar.

They are born to the same father, so it's normal for them to have some similarities.

I have only met Minister Tong Ji Xiaobei once and have no idea what he is like.

I couldn't figure it out, so I simply stopped thinking about it. The donkey cart had already left the city and soon arrived at the horse farm.

There were colorful flags flying on the racecourse, and there were already quite a few people on the high stands.

Today is a rare good weather day in winter.

There is not much wind and the sun is shining brightly.

It feels warm when it shines on people.

There were many carriages parked outside the racecourse.

At this time, a little maid hurried towards Ji Xiaobei and the others.

Ji Xiaobei took a look and saw that this was the princess's maid.

"Miss Ji, the princess asked you to come with me and go to the warm room over there to rest first."

The little maid took Ji Xiaobei and Jiaojiao to the greenhouse at the entrance.

The room was as warm as spring. The ladies inside took off their cloaks, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and gathered around the princess, chatting and laughing.

As Ji Xiaobei and Jiaojiao came in, the princess stood up.

She waved to Ji Xiaobei: "Miss Ji, come this way...why are you here so late?"

The princess asked with a smile.

When people saw the princess taking the initiative to greet the owner of the jewelry store several times, they all knew that they had a special relationship.

They naturally respect those whom the princess values.

They all greeted Ji Xiaobei.

As soon as Ji Xiaobei sat down, the princess's maid handed him a hand warmer.

"Miss Ji, can you ride a horse?" asked the princess.

When she invited Ji Xiaobei, it was to humiliate her, but when Ji Xiaobei rescued her, the princess changed her mind about her.

She felt that this woman was different from other women.

Somehow, the princess was willing to get close to her.

At that time, Zhao Mu and I still had a good relationship, and I wanted to vent her anger and make things difficult for Ji Xiaobei.

Everything is different now.

Maybe, the princess consort in the future will become my younger sister Zhao Mu.

The princess smiled bitterly.

Ji Xiaobei saw the melancholy that flashed across her eyes.

She smiled and said, "Princess, I can ride a horse, but I can't play polo! I'm going to give up the doubles match we talked about yesterday. My sister is not feeling well and can't play."

Jiaojiao smiled apologetically.

The princess glanced at Jiaojiao, who looked pale, and understood what Ji Xiaobei meant.

"Mammy Li, get shopkeeper Jiaojiao a cup of hot ginger and jujube tea." The princess instructed the nanny beside her.

Everyone around was envious.

Among so many people, only Zheng Dafu received special care from the princess.

"It's okay. If you can ride a horse, you can play polo. It's very simple. There are many young men in the capital. You can just pick one to be your partner!"

Ji Xiaobei: Oh, really? Any handsome guy in Beijing can be picked at will?

She was excited inside, but it didn't show on her face.

After some greetings, the polo game started immediately.

The men fought first.

The women would watch from the greenhouse or from the stands.

Ji Xiaobei was afraid that Jiaojiao would get cold, so he didn't go out. He stayed in the greenhouse with her and looked out through the window.

Ji Xiaobei practiced it silently in his mind several times.

Shouldn't be a problem.

Jiaojiao has been riding horses and playing polo since she was a child, so I told her some key points.

Ji Xiaobei wrote them down one by one.
