Back and forth: I brought supplies to help the impoverished prince

After a few days of rest, Qiao Shinian's leg discomfort had almost disappeared.

Wen Jiu returned to his previous routine before he became friends with Princess Yu'an.

The only difference this time is that Wu Han is training with him. Wu Han grew up watching others wrestling and fighting on the grasslands, and is very unfamiliar with the techniques in this area.

Every time after being knocked down or subdued by Wen Jiu in a way he had never seen before, he would open his eyes wide, with a desire to compete with Wen Jiu again.

Qiao Shinian would go check on her most precious tomatoes when the weather was good. After days of heavy rain, the tomatoes fell to the ground.

The other dishes were not much better, but there were many people in Jingqing Palace, so they always covered the vegetables with rainproof sheets they made themselves before it rained.

In fact, it is just a luxury to lengthen the pole of the umbrella and stick the umbrella into the ground every time it rains to prevent heavy rain from affecting the vegetables.

On a sunny afternoon, when Qiao Shinian was busy in the study perfecting a gift for Mu Qingchen, Princess Youan came to visit with her maid.

Unlike Princess Yu'an's forceful intrusion, Princess You'an looked like a blooming white lotus, elegant and quiet, yet her presence could not be ignored.

"Miss Qiao is not here?" Princess Youan looked at Chunxue who was pouring tea or water for her, and her eyes fell on Wen Jiu.

Wen Jiu's attitude was indifferent, and his tone was somewhat nonchalant: "She is busy. Are you looking for her or me?"

Princess You'an smiled slightly, her voice soft and soothing, as if she was reminiscing with an old friend: "The incident between the little emperor's uncle and Yu'an caused quite a stir a few days ago, and the emperor's uncle was also alarmed.

Yu'an was very sad after she returned, thinking that you had betrayed her, and she cried all day long."

"Yes. So you are here to ask me and Princess Yu'an to apologize?" Wen Jiu raised his eyebrows and looked at the man in plain clothes, and said in a mocking tone: "When did you become so nosy?"

Princess You'an picked up the teacup and continued as if she didn't hear Wen Jiu's ridicule: "In this deep palace, everyone is more or less insincere and helpless. Yu'an has come to me often these past two days, blaming herself for not being appropriate in her actions, and wondering if you have other unspeakable secrets."

"so?"

"I think the Thirteenth Prince is a smart man. Instead of being angry with Yu'an, it would be better for him to have a good chat with her. Maybe the misunderstanding will be resolved." Princess You'an looked at Wen Jiu with a smile.

Wen Jiu didn't say anything, but just stared at Princess Youan impolitely until she turned her head to avoid his gaze.

Wen Jiu asked curiously, "You are so considerate every day. Aren't you tired of living with a fake mask?"

Princess You'an just smiled slightly and said, "Thirteenth Prince, I think Yu'an treats you very well."

"So you have nothing to do all day? Princess You'an, no one else can interfere in the matter between her and me. If she really wants to reconcile with me, she will come to me instead of asking you to pass on the message." Wen Jiu said coldly, "And you, I have no friendship with you, so what identity do you have to be the middleman?"

"Princess Yu'an's best friend? Or do you want to be a peacemaker with an impartial attitude?" Wen Jiu's next words were a little ruthless. He sneered, "Don't you have a very good sense of propriety and boundaries? Why are you doing this thankless task now?"

Princess You'an didn't say anything, her cheeks were hot, she didn't know why she came here, maybe she wanted to see him and Qiao Shinian get along again, or maybe she felt that Yu'an was too noisy, she didn't know, she just came here.

It is normal to be ridiculed nowadays.

Seeing Princess You'an lower her head, Wen Jiu softened his voice: "You don't think that you have to do something to please others when you live under someone else's roof, do you? Come on, it's not like you don't have a home. You have such a big palace there.

You and I are different. I do it for survival, but you do it just for the so-called favors.

You shouldn't have gotten involved in these things. I apologize for speaking to you in a rude manner just now. I don't mean to blame you for anything, but in this matter, there can't be a third person to pass on the message between me and her."

Princess You'an raised her head slightly and looked at Wen Jiu, with complicated emotions in her eyes. Before she entered the house, she asked her personal maids Xuesong and Luchai to wait outside and not come in.

She was worried that if Xuesong and Luchai intervened, things might not go well this time, but she was also surprised by Wen Jiu's attitude.

Her first impression of Wen Jiu was at the night banquet when he first arrived in Zhou State. He stood there with his frail body and allowed his uncle the Emperor to ridicule him. Later, he disregarded his image as a prince and behaved without etiquette at the banquet.

Later, she had her period for the first time, thanks to her sister's help, the pills worked well. She saw a side of him that no one knew about, that he still played and fought like a child.

Now that the girl was not around, he gave her a very different feeling, like a quiet and indifferent person.

His words always seemed to stir up some pain in her, making her feel very uncomfortable.

But now he apologized, as if a man suddenly came to his senses after being impulsive.

"So, I understand. I will tell Fu Yue what you said. She is the only one of my age who can talk to me in this deep palace. So I am not doing this because I feel I am dependent on others as you said." Princess You'an stood up and bowed to Wen Jiu. "I apologize for disturbing you today."

Without saying anything to Wen Jiu, she took her people and left again.

Wen Jiu stood up and glanced at the gifts brought by Princess Youan on the table. He sneered and went to the study to find Qiao Shinian who was immersed in painting.

"She's gone?" She knew that Princess You'an had arrived, but the last failure made her feel embarrassed to meet this little girl, mainly because of the shame in her heart.

Wen Jiu looked at Qiao Shinian, who was carefully painting at the desk, and walked over and said in a rather sour tone, "Oh, sister, look how much you care about this wise king! You used all the precious pigments you brought with you on him.

On my birthday last year, you went home without any expression.

Tsk, it’s different when you have money and power. Look, you haven’t paid much attention to me these days.

Also, look at your album, they are all virtuous kings. Am I not as good-looking as him?"

Qiao Shinian put down the brush in his hand and looked up at Wen Jiu with a strange look on his face: "Why are you being so sarcastic?"

"Sister, I have a plan, do you want to hear it?" Wen Jiu seems to be very clingy recently.

As he said this, he lay on Qiao Shinian's back and whispered softly, "A despicable plan. We are both chess players and chess pieces."

Wen Jiu believes that Qiao Shinian has almost adapted to the life of this era, is thinking with the mindset of this era, and is integrating himself into this era.

So, he could tell her a plan that would give her the best of both worlds.

A plan that can win over the wise king and make Princess Yu'an happy at the same time.

The premise of this plan is that the two people cannot doubt or speculate about each other, and they must be of one mind as before.
