I rely on gossip to save the country

As the system spoke, it sat down opposite Chu Jinghong. Chu Jinghong poured a cup of brewed tea and pushed it to the system.

"Thank you!" The system thanked politely and took the tea and drank it.

"The young lady Qingyan beside Her Royal Highness the Princess is here!" Chu Jinghong suddenly turned around and looked at the figure walking towards the waterside pavilion not far away and said, "If something unexpected happened, she must have come here on orders."

"Wait, Her Royal Highness the Princess, are you missing us?" Hongye's mind suddenly opened up, and she nodded seriously after saying this.

Since they entered the palace, no one has ever cared about their life or death, and no one has ever deliberately made things difficult for them. Instead, they have made things difficult for many servants in the princess's palace. They just got the title of male favorites for nothing, and they are not even the emperor's servants.

This girl Qingyan came here suddenly, obviously not because she was bored.

Qingyan came to the backyard pavilion where the three young masters lived. She saw them chatting to kill time. She didn't show any strange look on her face. She just said respectfully, "Young Master Xi, Young Master Jinghong, Young Master Hongye, Her Royal Highness the Princess has ordered that the three young masters go to the dining pavilion for dinner."

The pavilion suddenly became quiet.

The system had a dull expression. Chu Jinghong and Hongye were a little stunned. They looked at each other.

When Hongye realized what was happening, she looked flattered. She jumped to Qingyan's side and asked with a smile, "Miss Qingyan, does His Highness want us to have dinner with Her Highness the Princess? Are we favored?"

Qingyan looked at Young Master Hongye who was looking at her expectantly, and the corners of her mouth twitched. She had no idea where her master found these three guys from. They were simply living ancestors.

But he quickly straightened his face and said in a very calm tone, word by word: "I am only here to convey the princess's order. As for the rest, I have nothing to say. Gentlemen, please get ready."

After saying this, he turned and left.

"Tsk." Hongye sneered, "Have you noticed that the servants in the princess's mansion keep their distance from the three of us?"

Except when I need to look for them, I will stay as far away from them as possible at other times and will never stay in front of them for even a minute.

"Isn't it better to keep a distance?" The young man in white placed four teacups and poured the brewed tea into them. His voice was always leisurely and relaxed, "We will have less trouble."

In fact, it was mainly because these two people caused too much trouble in the first two days after they arrived. They felt that this and that in the princess's mansion were not good enough, and they were always finding fault with the servants in the princess's mansion, so everyone stayed as far away from them as possible.

In the eyes of everyone in the mansion, these two male favorites are not only picky, but also make some weird requests that they can't fulfill, so who else should they avoid if not them?

Hongye stood up, clapped her hands, and walked out of the pavilion: "You two wait for me, I'm going to change my clothes first."

Chu Jinghong held his forehead helplessly and said to Hongye, "What's there to change? It's always the same red dress, what's the difference?"

Hongye's voice came from afar: "Of course, when meeting His Highness, you must dress elegantly and luxuriously, so that you can have a chance of winning the favor."

system:…………

Chu Jinghong: ………Okay, just pretend he said nothing.

When Xie Chuyue returned to the room, she found that Ajiu was still sitting obediently beside the couch waiting for her.

As soon as she entered the door, Jiu stood up, looked at Xie Chuyue nervously, and called out cautiously, "Master."

"Yeah!" Xie Chuyue hummed.

Then, looking at Ah Jiu who was standing quietly in the same place, he asked in disbelief, "After I went to court, you didn't stay here all the time, did you?"

"The master didn't let Jiu move." Jiu replied obediently.

Xie Chuyue: …………

This Ah Jiu is very good and obedient, but this this……

The phantom following behind him was also helpless and said, "Master, since you went to court, we asked him to wait in another room first, but he refused to do so. He said that without your order, he would not go anywhere and would not allow anyone to approach the couch."

Phantom was speechless after saying this. Where on earth did her master find these weirdos?

This is the fourth one!

Xie Chuyue didn't know what to say, so she came to Ajiu and said, "Ajiu, follow Huanying first. She will take you to the room where you will live in the future. Then change your clothes and come over. I will take you to dinner."

Ajiu hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and followed the phantom away.

Half an hour later,

Xie Chuyue changed into casual clothes and walked towards the dining pavilion with Ajiu, who was wearing black clothes.

The darkness gradually enveloped the place, the light became dim, and a maid had already lit the lamp in the dining pavilion.

When Xie Chuyue approached, she saw three people in the dining pavilion. Hongye was as flamboyant as ever in a red dress. Chu Jinghong was not only handsome in a white dress, but also had a harmless smile on his lips. Especially at this moment, he was smiling, more like an old fox.

The system is dressed in green and looks stunning, which is even more pleasing to the eye.

When Xie Chuyue brought Ah Jiu into the dining hall, the three of them bowed their heads and saluted obediently: "Greetings, Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Get up." Xie Chuyue said, and then sat down in the main seat.

The three of them stood up. When Hongye saw the young man in black following Xie Chuyue, her eyes lit up: "Your Highness, is this the new male favorite? He looks okay, but not as pretty as Hongye, and he doesn't know how to dress up at all. How can he win favor in black?"

Chu Jinghong looked at Ah Jiu for a long time, and said thoughtfully: "Xiao Hongye, you are focusing on the wrong thing. You should not focus on what he wears, but on whether he gets along with Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Xie Chuyue's mouth twitched, she picked up the teacup and took a sip. Sorry, she almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

Moreover, my focus is not on Ajiu's clothes and appearance, but on Ajiu's fighting ability.

Wait, it seems that she has been led astray by Hongye and Chu Jinghong. Ajiu is not her male lover.

Xie Chuyue looked at the four people, scanning their faces and figures. She had to say that these four people were all top-notch in appearance and temperament, and each had their own abilities, but they had not yet been revealed.

If all these were her male favorites, she would be really lucky. It's a pity that they are all a bunch of old foxes. They must have an ulterior motive when approaching her.

She was just waiting for the day when these two guys' true colors would be revealed.

Xie Chuyue felt that they would have to get along for a long time in the future, so she introduced them to each other: "This is Ah Jiu, my personal bodyguard."

Hongye pouted: "Your Highness the Princess can have a male favorite, Hongye is not jealous, after all, it's more fun with more people."

Xie Chuyue felt that she was getting a little angry: "Eating can't stop you from talking, right? Eat if you want, then get out if you don't."

In an instant, the dining hall became quiet and everyone started eating obediently.

Whether it was the system or Chu Jinghong and Hongye, the three of them looked at Ajiu who was sitting next to Xie Chuyue with unfriendly eyes.

Very good, I took away their favor as soon as I arrived.

System: That’s great. This guy has replaced himself.

Hongye's face was full of reluctance. He had been vying for favor for so long, but he was actually no match for a new brat.

Chu Jinghong was still relatively normal, just glancing at Ajiu from time to time.

After everyone finished their meal, the maid came up and took away the remaining food, and served them some cakes, tea, etc.

Xie Chuyue didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly: "In three days, I will leave for Beiqi Country. If you want to leave, you can leave at any time."

"Your Highness, you have a cruel heart. Do you want us no longer? Your Highness, do you know that your words are like a knife stabbing Hongye's heart, making her bleed profusely?"

Xiao Hongye became unhappy instantly. He stood up, baring his white teeth and looking full of resentment and indignation.

Xie Chuyue was also startled by Hongye's sudden action.

However, their relationship is not that good yet. Looking at what he said, he seems like a heartless man.

Chu Jinghong raised his lips and said casually, "Since Your Highness Princess wants us to choose, then Jinghong chooses to go to Beiqi Kingdom with Your Highness Princess."

Hongye was too excited just now, and she finally reacted, "I want to go too. Princess, you are not allowed to leave Hongye behind."

Xie Chuyue frowned and pressed her temples with her hands. She was really overwhelmed at the moment.

System: [Host, don't you plan to take them with you? ]

Xie Chuyue: [I don’t know. If they insist on coming, then I can only take them with me.]

Hongye: Can I take them with me?

Chu Jinghong narrowed his eyes: So what is this little princess up to?

Xie Chuyue was completely confused by the actions of Hongye and Chu Jinghong.

Finally, he agreed: "Okay, then you guys get ready, we'll set off together in three days."

After hearing this satisfactory answer, the two finally calmed down.

But Xie Chuyue ignored them and left with Ajiu.

During these three days, the officials who were sent to Beiqi State and Xie Chuyue did not attend court.

Three days later, everyone was already waiting at the city gate. Everyone was there, except their little princess.

Emperor Mingde led all the civil and military officials to see him off, and they were all waiting for Xie Chuyue at the city gate.

Someone calculated the time and arrived at the city gate.

Everyone looked at the four young men getting off the carriage, and their faces instantly turned dark.

Did the little princess forget what she was going to do? Why did she bring her male lover with her? It wasn't like she was going out to play.

The three brothers of the Xie family can now face this scene calmly. They can see several people every time they go to the princess's mansion, but this time it seems that there is an additional young man in black.

When Emperor Mingde saw the four young men getting off the carriage, his eyelids twitched. What was his Yue'er going to do?

Under the angry eyes of the crowd, Xie Chuyue, wearing a yellow silk dress, jumped out of the carriage.

"Your son pays homage to His Majesty, Father!" Xie Chuyue walked over and bowed obediently.

Emperor Mingde looked at the little girl who was becoming more and more beautiful, and the old father's heart softened. He really couldn't bear to let her go.

"Yuer, why did you come just now?" Emperor Mingde's words seemed to be blaming, but there was no trace of blame on his face, and he smiled kindly.

"The time is just right, I'm not late!" Xie Chuyue didn't think there was anything wrong.

In his heart, he complained to the system: [System, I came on time, how could I be late? It's obviously this group of people who came early. ]

System: [Host, they are different from you. They would rather come early and wait than come late and make the emperor wait for them. No matter how many heads they have, they will not have enough to chop off.]

Xie Chuyue nodded, so it had nothing to do with her.

Everyone who heard Xie Chuyue's thoughts rolled their eyes. His Majesty the Emperor dotes on you, but he can't dote on them, so they had to come earlier.

Afterwards, Emperor Mingde gave everyone a lot of instructions before letting them leave.

The crowd finally set out on the journey to Beiqi Kingdom.

The journey was extremely lively. No matter where they stopped to rest, the eldest princess and her four male favorites were particularly eye-catching.

If the eldest princess hadn't protected these four male favorites, everyone would really want to beat them to death.

There were so many troubles along the way, and they were so annoying, especially the one in red, who complained about this and that. Every time he arrived in a city, he would buy several sets of clothes and a lot of exquisite accessories.

Although the ones in white clothes are not as annoying as those in red clothes, they are also very annoying. Their words are so irritating. No matter what they do, they always go to Her Royal Highness the Princess and exaggerate what happened. Then the eldest princess will threaten them in a sinister way.

There's also the one in green clothes. Although he looks really good, he disappears from time to time, causing them to look for him every day. It really makes them mad.

What gave them the most headache and the most hatred was that young man in black. He wanted to beat them to death at any time. If it weren't for Her Royal Highness the Princess stopping him, they would have died hundreds of times at the hands of this young man in black.

That day, as soon as they left the post station, Xie Chuyue just walked out of the room and saw Ajiu pinching the neck of an official. Xie Chuyue was so scared that she didn't care about anything else and quickly flew downstairs to stop Ajiu.

"Ajiu, what are you doing?" This was the eighth time, and Xie Chuyue was really afraid of Ajiu.

Being stopped, Ajiu looked aggrieved: "Master, he has ill intentions towards you. Master has many concerns and cannot kill him. But Ajiu can. Ajiu can kill him for you."

Xie Chuyue's face was filled with shock, and she stammered with fear: "No, no, no, no, it's not that, his crime does not deserve the death penalty."

Ajiu: "Ajiu heard him say bad things about you."

Xie Chuyue tried to persuade him with emotion and reason: "He just said bad things, he didn't intend to kill me, you don't have to kill him, he said one or two bad things, I won't die, and I also said bad things about her, so should I die too?"

Ajiu: "Then I will kill him next time!"

Ajiu felt that he had done nothing wrong. Hongye and the others had said that they were their master's personal guards, so they only needed to be respectful to the emperor and the master, and the rest of the people just had to give face.

Oh, there are also several royal brothers of the master. Jiu was a little confused after hearing a lot of them.

However, Ajiu remembered the last sentence: just give face to others. This sentence has already hinted very clearly.

Ajiu understood that except the emperor and the master, he could ignore everyone else around him.

Even if it means killing someone.

Xie Chuyue stomped her feet in anger and kicked a stool next to her away. Damn it, there is no way to communicate.

Xie Chuyue: [Damn it, this guy, his brain is filled with coffin lids! Even the King of Hell can’t be as cruel as him. ]

At this moment, the system didn't know what to say, but it knew that it had to persuade Ajiu, and Ajiu only listened to his host, so only the host could persuade him.

[Host, go and persuade him again. If you can persuade him, that would be the best. If not, take him wherever you go in the future, lest he kills an official, which would be disastrous.]

Xie Chuyue looked at Ajiu, who still had an innocent look on his face, and finally pulled him back to the house.
