Seeing that Bai Qianyu was about to explode, Situ Jiaye quickly explained.

"Qianyu, don't be anxious. Listen to me. Take back the IOU first. I will prepare the food and fodder for you as soon as possible. However, I want to try another way of trading this time. What do you think?"

Situ Jiaye said cautiously.

"Change the transaction method. What transaction method do you want to change?"

Bai Qianyu suppressed the anger in her heart and asked coldly.

"Qianyu, it's like this, you see, you don't like your future Crown Prince's Consort either, right?"

While Situ Jiaye was talking, he secretly glanced at Bai Qianyu, afraid that his next words would anger him again.

"So what if you like it, so what if you don't like it, what does this have to do with my preparation of food and grass?" Bai Qianyu replied coldly.

"Qianyu, this is it, can you give Jiaxin a chance and try to date her?"

"Situ Jiaye, you..."

"Qianyu, my prince, please don't get angry first. Listen to me. What I mean is that if you two really get divorced one day, or if she dies, can you give priority to Jiaxin? I will regard these food and grass as a dowry for Jiaxin in advance.

Don't worry, as long as the prince is willing to treat Jiaxin well, our Situ family will never let him down."

Thinking of what his mother told him when he came out, Situ Jiaye had a headache. For the sake of his two ancestors, he really gave it his all. He said in one breath what he should and should not say, and then looked at Bai Qianxun with a nervous face.

Situ Jiaye prayed silently in his heart, hoping that Bai Qianyu would not throw him out of the window, otherwise, he would be really miserable.

However, for the sake of his own peace of mind in the future, he had no other choice but to do this.

Hey!

Who makes him someone else's brother?

However, Situ Jiaye was really wrong this time. Bai Qianyu was in urgent need of food and fodder, but he was also a man of principles. He could pawn the palace's property, even the palace itself, but he would not sell out his feelings at will, even for a casual occasion.

The Dog Emperor came up with such a damaging move because he knew his character.

Bai Qianyu did not agree, and he did not refuse either. Instead, he looked at Situ Jiaye coldly, silently put away the IOU, and then turned and left.

Looking at Bai Qianyu's resolute departure, Situ Jiaye was really panicked.

He would rather Bai Qianyu beat him up directly, at least it would make him calm down, but she didn't. Situ Jiaye looked at Bai Qianyu's back and opened his mouth, but in the end, no word came out.

He knew that he was wrong today, and very wrong. What Bai Qianyu cared about most was this, and he really shouldn't have gambled with the lives of his soldiers.

He is such a bastard.

Situ Jiaye slapped himself hard in the face, then quickly got up and left, hurrying out of the teahouse.

In Prince Yi's mansion.

The housekeeper was speechless when he saw Eunuch Gu with a red face and thick neck.

How could the prince do this?

There was no other way. As the steward of the palace, he had to arrange everything.

"Someone, send the Crown Princess to Qingxiao Garden to rest!"

As soon as the butler finished speaking, everyone present was stunned.

"Butler, are you sure it's Qingxiao Garden, not Qingjiang Garden?"

"That's right. This housekeeper is sure it's Qingxiao Garden. Go quickly and don't dawdle. The Crown Princess must be exhausted after sitting in the carriage for so long. Also, the Crown Prince has said that servants are not allowed to disturb the Crown Princess's rest at will. Violators will be punished by military law."

After the housekeeper finished speaking, he ignored Yuqing.

It wasn't that the butler was deliberately showing off to intimidate Yun Qingyao, but he was just following orders. The prince had someone specifically tell him this, so he dared not disobey.

He didn't want to become the second Ling Feng. You have to know that Prince Yi's Mansion is not like other wealthy families. If you make a mistake in Prince Yi's Mansion, you will be punished seriously without any ambiguity. The rules of Prince Yi's Mansion are too much for even an old man like him to bear, not to mention him.

Looking at Yun Qingyao's inquiring eyes, the housekeeper had to pretend not to see it.

"Miss!"

Seeing the housekeeper like this, Cai'er could only gently pull Yun Qingyao's sleeve, with a trace of panic on her tired face. Although Cai'er was young, she was not a fool. How could she not see the expressions of the servants in Prince Yi's Mansion after they heard about Qingxiaoyuan!

Cai'er even had reason to suspect that Qingxiaoyuan must not be a good place. Maybe it was haunted at night. Otherwise, why would the servants in the palace have that kind of expression!

Woo woo woo, she is most afraid of ghosts!

When Cai'er thought about the male ghosts, female ghosts and hanged ghosts gathering in the middle of the night, she wanted to cry!

Yun Qingyao didn’t know what Cai’er was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely tell her that ghosts were not scary at all. Sometimes, people were much scarier than ghosts.

What's more, she herself is a ghost from another world, strictly speaking, she can be considered half a ghost.

It’s just that no one knows it.

Of course, Yun Qingyao wouldn’t say it on her own initiative.

"Be good, don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything!"

Yun Qingyao patted the little girl gently, trying her best to comfort Cai'er's weak heart. After seeing that Cai'er's complexion looked a little better, Yun Qingyao looked at the housekeeper and said.

"Excuse me, housekeeper, which courtyard does the prince live in? Is it far from Qingxiao Garden?"

Yun Qingyao asked.

"Replying to the Crown Prince's wife, Qingjiang Garden where the Crown Prince lives is on the east side, and Qingxiao Courtyard where the Crown Prince's wife lives is on the west side. It takes about quarter of an hour to walk there!" the butler answered truthfully.

After all, this is not a secret. Even if he doesn't know it today, he will know it in two days. There is really no need for him to hide it.

Even if you want to hide it, it is impossible.

"Princess, don't worry. When the prince has finished his business and returns home for the wedding, you will move to the prince's Qingjiang Garden. It's just a temporary residence now, so you don't have to worry."

Although the butler didn't like Yun Qingyao very much, his opinion had changed a lot after seeing her in person. As for other things, he didn't worry about them.

Led by the maid, they walked further and further away, and the place became more and more desolate. If they had not yet walked out of the courtyard wall, Yun Qingyao would have thought that they had already walked into the wilderness.

She had never imagined that there would be such a dilapidated and desolate place in this ancient royal palace.

Just when their legs were getting weak from walking, the little girl finally stopped in front of a dilapidated courtyard.

"Princess, we have arrived at Qingxiao Garden!"

The little girl's voice was very soft, like a duck with its throat pinched.

Looking at this truly Qingxiao Garden, Cai'er was stunned, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions. If she was just worried before, then now Cai'er was really crying without tears.

"Um, Sister Yuqing, are you sure you didn't bring the wrong person? Is this the Qingxiaoyuan that the housekeeper mentioned?"

Cai'er looked at the half-human-high weeds in the yard, her mouth wide open, tears welling up in her eyes.

This... this... this deserted courtyard, are you sure it's where people live?

"Princess, look there!"

In order to prove that she was not taking the wrong path, the little girl pointed forward. Looking in the direction of her finger, Yun Qingyao suddenly smiled.
