After leaving the escort agency, Chen Jingting went to the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion and reported before entering.

Wen Xingchen was waiting for him in the yard.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Chen Jingting saw that Wen Xingchen had lost a lot of weight.

Her skin is whiter than snow, and her eyes are like a pool of clear water. When she looks around, she still exudes an elegant and noble temperament, which makes people captivated, ashamed of themselves, and dare not blaspheme.

She was wrapped in a mink coat, the fur white and pure as snow.

Wen Xingchen saw someone coming and asked with a smile, "Miss me?"

Chen Jingting paused for a moment when he heard her teasing tone, but when he saw her face which looked even paler due to her illness, he took a few steps closer to her.

"Are you feeling better?"

Wen Xingchen nodded slightly.

"It's much better now."

Chen Jingting came today for important business.

He asked, "Is the relationship between the princess and your sister not good?"

"Huh? What stupid thing did she do again?"

"Before, on your birthday, she told me that you still loved the Second Prince and that you were thinking of breaking off the engagement with me one day. She also said that you and the Second Prince would eventually become fait accompli."

Wen Xingchen frowned.

"Is it because of her nonsense that you don't believe me?"

Wen Xingchen thought about it carefully. Their relationship had progressed rapidly that day, and he had even kissed her, but after that day, he suddenly changed.

Is it because of Wen Ruyue?

Did you start doubting yourself that long ago?

Wen Ruyue?

"Has she been to you again recently?"

Chen Jingting shook his head.

"She went to look for the Second Prince, intending to use Xiangguo Temple's magic to frame you."

The Dharma Assembly at Xiangguo Temple?

Wen Xingchen seemed to guess what she was going to do.

"You don't suspect that this was the princess's order, do you?"

Chen Jingting shook his head.

"A princess wouldn't be so foolish."

Very good, just believe in yourself.

Chen Jingting said:

"That day, you should stay indoors."

Wen Xingchen felt that Chen Jingting's thoughts were simple, and he didn't know about his past life...

"Even if you stay indoors, you can't stop others from slandering you. Besides, a mage's words are usually regarded as divine oracles and cannot be reversed."

She had done this kind of thing many times in her previous life.

Wen Ruyue had been through a lot with him and was very familiar with these things.

Yingying listened to the conversation between the two. Although she was a little confused, she heard clearly that Wen Ruyue wanted to harm the girl.

I said angrily in my heart:

"Princess, you are so kind to her and considerate of her in everything. Not only do you help her take care of her brother, but you also give her your man. Yet, she is still not satisfied and wants to harm you. You must never be kind to her again."

Wen Xingchen naturally wouldn't let her go like this.

"How about we return the favor?"

Yingying's eyes lit up.

"What shall the princess do?"

"Isn't she going to use the Dharma Assembly to frame this princess? This princess can do that too."

Chen Jingting wondered if this was too cruel, since she was his sister after all.

But when he thought about what would happen if this strategy was used on Wen Xingchen, he felt a chill in his heart.

It's his own fault and he doesn't deserve any sympathy.

Chen Jingting didn't stay long. After talking with Wen Xingchen, he left.

Wen Xingchen returned to Qilin Garden, sat on the warm kang, and lowered his head to see the book on the art of balance on the table.

Thoughtful.

Xiling'er's idea was to use the court structure to reason with her.

Because of the Xi family, which is a cancer, the emperor supports the Chen family to fight against it. However, once the Xi family is gone, the Chen family will be the only one in power. In this way, the situation of the Chen family will be just like that of the Xi family today.

But she was wrong. The Chen family would not be arrogant and look down on others because of their favor, nor would they harm the people or bring disaster to the court.

Of course, Xiling'er's vision is only this big.

"Yingying, what do you say, the princess should go and play with her?"

"Princess, who are you referring to?"

"Xi Ling'er, this princess doesn't like her."

In his previous life, Xiao Sheng praised Xi Ling'er's intelligence and said that her feelings for him were pure and noble. She loved Xiao Sheng so much that she was willing to be his concubine just to be with him.

In this life, is she still so pure?

This princess suddenly wants to see them turn against each other.

"Princess, has Xiling'er offended you recently?"

Wen Xingchen shook his head.

"You offended me in your past life, and I will take your debt in this life."

"..."

Yingying didn't understand, but Tai Jinhua said nonchalantly, "If Princess doesn't like him, go ahead and do it."

Wen Xingchen looked at Tai Jinhua with a smile and said, "You, stay away from this princess from now on, or you will learn bad things."

"Princess, are you going to send me away?"

"No, you should go to school."

Wen Xingchen thought that she couldn't just follow him, she still needed to learn something, the various universities in the capital... forget it, those kinds of schools in the capital were not suitable for her.

He Yunshang is a good choice.

Besides, Wen Rubao needs someone to take care of him.

"I'll take you to see the master tomorrow."

master?

Tai Jinhua looked miserable.

"Princess, I won't go. It's fine for me to follow you. Just like Sister Yingying, I can become your personal maid."

"The maidservants around this princess cannot be illiterate."

"I know one, no, three, of my names. I can write and read them."

Wen Xingchen: ...

"My father said that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. All she needs to know is her own name."

"Do you listen to your father or this princess?"

Tai Jinhua: "Of course I will listen to you, Princess."

"Then go to the school."

Taiwan Jinhua:.......

Tai Jinhua was taught by her father since she was a child that when she grew up, she could only listen to her own princess.

This is their mission.

The next morning

Wen Xingchen went to He Yunshang's residence.

This was her first visit.

Wen Xingchen went over and the person who opened the door was Wen Xiaobai, Wen Rubao's personal servant.

"Your servant greets Her Royal Highness the Princess."

"Get up, has your little master been well behaved recently?"

Wen Xiaobai stood up and replied, "Young Master has been listening to Master's instructions and studying very hard these past few days."

"These past few days? You weren't obedient before?"

Wen Xiaobai said a little nervously: "Young Master also studied hard before, but he has been studying extremely seriously recently."

Wen Xingchen chuckled after hearing this and asked, "You didn't listen to the master before, so you got disciplined, right?"

Wen Xiaobai: The princess guessed right.

"The princess hired a very capable teacher." Wen Xiaobai said in a pleasant tone, "Princess, are you here to see Master He? Master He is still giving a lecture to the young master. Please go to the front hall and wait. I will go and inform him."

Wen Xingchen stopped him and said, "Since you are giving a lecture, wait until you finish the lecture with Master before reporting to him."

"Yes."

Wen Xingchen asked him, "Can you hear them lecturing from where you are standing?"

Wen Xiaobai understood immediately. He gestured to the princess, asking her to go inside.

This courtyard is a two-story courtyard. The front yard is not big and has a reception room, and there are two or three rooms in the back yard.

Wen Xingchen walked through the corridor and to the backyard. Along the way, he didn't see anyone except Wen Xiaobai.

"Is there no one serving in the yard?"

Wen Xiaobai said, "There were originally two maids, but my master and I didn't like strangers, so we drove them away."
