Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 230: Peacock spreads its tail, here too

"You think it's strange, is it because you haven't seen it often before? How old are you and what's your name?" The Crown Princess asked with a faint smile and clapped her hands.

Seeing this, the eunuch hurriedly brought over the basin of water he had prepared earlier and said, "In reply to the Crown Princess, I am Zhang Jinbao, a servant who is thirty-six years old this year. When I was in the palace, I was in the Flower and Bird Room. After the Eastern Palace was built, I was assigned here."

It was said that they were assigned here, but in fact they were squeezed out. The palace sent flowers and birds to the concubines in the harem and there was a reward for them.

After arriving at the Eastern Palace, the Crown Prince could only come once every six months, and he did not ask for the flowers and birds to be well taken care of. It was only recently that he asked for the two geese to grow stronger.

Zhang Jinbao finally understood his master's job requirements, so he found different ways to mix feed for the geese, drive them to move around, and give them extra meals when they were tired and hungry.

"Oh? Then you look young, you don't look like you are 36 years old." Gu Qinghe took the handkerchief from Yingchun's hand, wiped his hands and said.

Zhang Jinbao raised his head and smiled when he heard this, "Crown Princess, thank you for your praise."

It can be said that life in the Eastern Palace is not without its benefits. It is carefree and you won’t age if you don’t worry.

"Since I've been working here, how many times a year can I see my master?" Gu Qinghe asked.

"This is the second time I've run into you today," Zhang Jinbao said, holding up two fingers. "That's more times than in the first three years."

Gu Qinghe raised her eyebrows slightly, "So was that the first time you met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Zhang Jinbao said "yes" after hearing this, but that wasn't the end. He continued, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent me over and told me to take good care of the geese."

Princess Yunhua and Liu Yinshuang looked at each other and smiled without saying anything.

"I see." Gu Qinghe said. She thought that Zhang Jinbao didn't communicate much with others and had been out of the palace for more than three years. He probably had no connection with the people in the harem.

However, his mind was active, and Gu Qinghe didn't say anything else. It was better to be cautious when it came to hiring people.

After enjoying the flowers and birds, Princess Yunhua and Liu Yinshuang saw that it was almost 3 p.m., so they suggested leaving.

Gu Qinghe sent the two of them to the second gate and said, "Come here often when you have time."

"Okay, I will definitely come to accompany the Crown Princess often." Princess Yunhua said with a smile.

Liu Yinshuang took a few steps forward, then turned back and leaned close to Gu Qinghe's ear, "Crown Princess, this way of immortality is better if men and women practice together."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qinghe frowned and looked at Liu Yinshuang. Such a nonsensical sentence?

Liu Yinshuang looked at the Crown Princess's expression and couldn't help but laugh. "I haven't found a chance for us to talk alone. Didn't I say I'd ask that Taoist priest?"

After saying that, Liu Yinshuang raised an eyebrow at the Crown Princess and moved closer: "Don't be shy, use him, use him as much as you can, but forget it when you're tired."

Gu Qinghe couldn't discuss this kind of thing with others after all. The tips of her ears turned red. "Alright, I understand. Let's get in the carriage quickly. Yunhua is waiting anxiously."

"Okay, believe me, he would love it." Liu Yinshuang smiled and waved her hand, thinking: The Crown Princess is still a little thin-skinned, this is the obligation of husband and wife.

In the Eastern Palace, the person who looks forward to fulfilling his "husband-wife obligations" every day is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

At this time, Xiao Jingheng was sitting in the hall of the main courtyard. Wangchun made white peony tea for the prince as she had done in the previous few days.

However, the Crown Prince was just flipping through the book that the Crown Princess was going to read in her spare time, and only drank two or three sips of tea. It was not like what Yingchun said, that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince liked this tea.

The Crown Princess knows His Royal Highness the Crown Prince quite well.

There were footsteps in the yard. Han Desheng looked up and saw that it was his apprentice Zheng Shan who he had just arranged to stay in the Flower and Bird Garden. He said, "Manager Han, Princess Yunhua and Miss Liu have already gone back. The Crown Princess just sent them off and is on her way back."

"Okay, just wait here." Han Desheng waved his whisk and prepared to repeat the message to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

However, Xiao Jingheng had already heard it by now, and it was difficult for him to reply from three or four meters away even if he didn't want to hear it.

He first cleared his throat, then brushed off the unnecessary wrinkles on his cuffs, picked up the book again, and sat up straight.

Han Desheng came over and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is back soon."

"I know." His voice softened a lot.

Han Desheng agreed and stepped aside, thinking to himself, I wonder if the Crown Princess saw the peacock spreading its tail when she went to the flower and bird garden today?

If you don’t see it, don’t feel bad, you can see it when you come back...

Following behind Gu Qinghe were Li Ma, Yingchun, and four maids as they entered the main courtyard.

Xiao Jingheng waited for the Crown Princess to approach, put the book on the table, stood up and walked to her, supporting her body as she was about to get up.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Gu Qinghe said.

"No need to be so polite." Xiao Jingheng smiled and his voice was soft.

"I didn't expect Yunhua and Miss Liu to come visit today."

"Yes, it was unexpected."

Xiao Jingheng asked again: "Have you seen the wild geese?"

"It's growing well." Gu Qinghe replied.

Xiao Jingheng laughed muffledly when he heard this, then he remembered the business again, "You went to Yufu Palace today, but your mother was unhappy with you?"

Gu Qinghe was no longer surprised by Xiao Jingheng's initiative to ask about Concubine Li's gender, and said calmly, "Not really, it's just that some women have the mentality of being a daughter-in-law for many years and finally becoming a mother-in-law. I slightly corrected my mother."

Xiao Jingheng had heard all the stories from Han Desheng. He nodded and said, "My mother's temperament has indeed been strange in recent years. In addition, without the queen mother to suppress her in the palace, she will naturally lose her sense of proportion. It is for her own good to punish her."

"Yes, I will also pay attention to the method." Gu Qinghe said.

What method? Of course, the most direct one.

Xiao Jingheng said "hmm" lightly and didn't mention the matter again. Gu Qinghe took the initiative to mention the eunuch named Zhang Jinbao in the Flower and Bird Room.

"Manager Han, do you have much dealings with Zhang Jinbao?" Gu Qinghe looked at Han Desheng with a faint smile.

Upon hearing this, Han Desheng hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed, saying, "To answer the Crown Princess's question, I only know that he has been working in the Internal Affairs Department since he entered the palace. He was one of the same group of people who entered the palace as Chen Wenzhong. He was quite honest. I don't know how he ended up in the Flower and Bird Room. When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince moved to the East Palace, he was sent here."

Gu Qinghe heard the name 'Chen Wenzhong' and raised an eyebrow with a smile. Is he honest? Or maybe a little dishonest.

Smiling like this, she turned to face Xiao Jingheng, and before she could put away the smile on her face, in the eyes of the prince, it was like a hundred flowers being blown by the spring breeze, and his heart was moved again.

"Your Highness, the main courtyard doesn't have any eunuchs to run errands for us. How about letting Zhang Jinbao come in and take over for a few days to run around the Imperial Household Department?" Gu Qinghe asked, now with a serious expression. "I'm afraid Peng Lu and Zhang Fu are too busy to handle it."

Xiao Jingheng said: "Running errands? Sure, let someone keep an eye on him."
