The Princess Kicks Down the Protagonists

Chapter 71 Zheng Family Courtyard

Just when everyone thought Xiaoyanzi would do the opposite and say, "Then I won't go."

But Xiaoyanzi rolled her eyes and blurted out, "Master, do you like Ziwei more than me now?"

Xiaoyanzi was still feeling smug, thinking that she had brought the emperor and Ziwei closer together, but she had no idea how much of a stir these words had caused in other people's hearts.

For a moment, the scene was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Xiaoyanzi always has the ability to silence everyone with just one sentence like this. Jingyan looked at their pale faces and could hardly help laughing out loud.

Especially Falcon, he had already realized what was wrong, his face looked very ugly, but he forced himself to put on a smile that was uglier than crying. Jingyan wanted to laugh even more.

The emperor was still an old hand after all, very experienced, and he chuckled to break the awkwardness.

"Ziwei is a beautiful jade, but you are a stubborn stone."

He neither directly answered Xiaoyanzi's embarrassing question, but expressed his love for Ziwei.

The result was that Erkang's expression became even uglier.

But Ziwei didn't think about anything else. She felt very happy when she heard the emperor praising her like that.

Along the way, she tried her best to serve the emperor, chatting with him and playing chess with him, taking care of him in every possible way, making the emperor laugh frequently.

Jingyan, who became a light bulb, said: I am a little disgusted with you two.

At noon, E Min found a courtyard for everyone to rest.

Several people walked into the courtyard. The courtyard was decorated in a very romantic way, with winding corridors, rockery and flowing water, which attracted the emperor's praise.

Jingyan also liked it and couldn't help but sigh: "How did Lord Emin borrow such a beautiful courtyard? It's so beautiful."

Unlike the magnificent buildings in the palace, the Zheng family courtyard is in the style of Jiangnan gardens and is full of vitality.

E Min grinned and said, "Mr. Zheng is quite kind. Seeing that we have a lot of cars and horses, he lent it to us without saying anything."

Jingyan raised an eyebrow. So kind? Could it be that he just lent it to Emin without saying anything after seeing her show her badge?

Jingyan kept exposing his identity along the way. He wanted to stop it, but he was powerless against this group of big leaks. It seemed that no one cared about keeping secrets.

Never mind, it was Ziwei who got stabbed in the play anyway, and it seemed that this crucial plot point could not be avoided even if Jingyan tried his best.

Fortunately, her brother and Fu Ling'an are here this time, so the safety of her and Qing'er should not be a problem.

"Yan'er, what are you doing standing there? Do you really want me to go and invite you personally?"

Jingyan came back to her senses and saw the emperor smiling and waving at her. She smiled sweetly and walked towards the emperor.

"Yan'er wouldn't dare. You'd better sit down and wait for Yan'er to come over."

Master Ji always cares about people's livelihood wherever he goes. Seeing that Mr. Zheng has a wealthy family, he guessed that the people in this place should be living a good life.

"Yes, the people in this area live a good life."

"Master, please have some tea."

Ziwei came over with the tea she had brewed herself.

"Master, although the tea from Mr. Zheng's house is good, this is your favorite Biluochun, which Ziwei brought specially from home. You must be tired from the journey, so drink it while it's hot."

The emperor smiled and picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Hiss, my mouth is hot.

"Why is this tea scalding hot?"

He burned his tongue!

Ziwei was completely unaware and was still proud of her thoughtfulness: "The thermos I brought from home is useless. The hot water has gone cold. I just borrowed Mr. Zheng's kitchen to boil some water."

Seeing Ziwei taking so much trouble, the emperor couldn't bear to refuse her kindness, so he could only put down his teacup silently and thank her for her hard work.

"Ziwei girl, thank you for your trouble."

After hearing the emperor's words of thanks, Ziwei was so happy that it almost blossomed.

But Ziwei's thoughtfulness seemed distorted in the eyes of others.

Not only did Fu Heng and Master Ji, who were chatting enthusiastically, fall silent.

Even Jingyan, Yongheng and others pricked up their ears to listen to the conversation between the two.

Ziwei was too caring towards the emperor, taking care of him in every possible way. If she said she had no purpose, no one would believe it.

Master Ji has already begun to guess that Miss Ziwei wants to be the emperor's favorite concubine.

If Qing'er had only guessed before that Ziwei had a purpose in approaching the emperor, now she could almost be sure of it.

On the other side, Erkang still remembered his purpose. Seeing Qing'er standing in the courtyard in deep thought, he walked towards her confidently.

"Qing'er, what are you thinking about?"

Qing'er came back to her senses and was a little confused when Erkang suddenly came to talk to her, but thinking of their secrets, Qing'er decided to ask him some questions.

"I'm just sitting here in a daze, with nothing to do."

"Qing'er, we haven't had a good chat since you came back from Mount Wutai."

Erkang coughed lightly and found an angle that he thought was very charming to face Qing'er.

Qing'er smiled politely: "Yeah, you guys seem very busy."

"I'm not busy at all. I'm just not sure if the 'tacit understanding' we had at Biyun Temple three years ago still exists, and if we can still get along like before."

Hearing this, Qing'er frowned slightly. It was obvious that he and Ziwei were already in love with each other, so why did he come to her to say these things?

Besides, the so-called tacit understanding was nothing more than the two of them happening to watch the moon at Biyun Temple. They barely chatted that day, so how could it be considered a tacit understanding?

Qing'er was about to refuse coldly, but suddenly thought of Ziwei's secret, and she changed the subject, "Since you came back this time, I feel like you've changed a lot."

"Erkang, Qing'er, what are you talking about? I want to listen too."

Xiaoyanzi skipped between the two of them and looked at Qing'er suspiciously.

She saw the two of them talking together from a distance, and she had to keep an eye on Erkang for her good sister Ziwei.

Qing'er smiled gently and continued to tease, "I was saying that since returning this time, Erkang, Yongqi, and the others have transformed into your four great guards. I'm really curious about what happened in between."

When she talked about this, Xiaoyanzi's bragging nature exploded, and she wanted to tell Qing'er the story for three days and three nights. However, there were secrets mixed in that which Qing'er couldn't know, so Xiaoyanzi could only laugh dryly.

And he promised to tell Qing'er everything when he had the chance.

Yongqi, who had been paying attention to Xiaoyanzi, also came over to prevent Xiaoyanzi from letting anything slip.

Ertai couldn't laugh at Erkang's pretentious appearance. Has his brother still not given up on plotting against Qing'er? Qing'er, please don't be fooled.

Ertai felt that he could not delay any longer, so he quietly returned to the carriage, took out a pen and paper, wrote a small note, and handed it to Qing'er while she was standing alone.

"Qing'er, I have something important to tell you. See you at the corner gate. - Ertai"

When Qing'er saw the little note Ertai gave her, she was a little surprised, but curiosity overcame everything else.

Qing'er only told Jingyan and then went to the corner gate alone.

Of course, Jingyan was worried, so he asked Fu Lingan to find a secret guard to secretly protect Qing'er.

When Qing'er came, Ertai was already waiting there. He was pacing back and forth, looking very anxious.

"Ertai, what do you want from me?"
