The princess is beautiful and Ziye

Chapter 54 New Year's Eve Palace Banquet 2

Chapter 54

When they arrived at the Royal Garden, Wei Shi went to chat with some official wives she knew, Xie Shuhui led Xie Luoyao into the crowd, and soon disappeared.

Xie Tinglan had a face-to-face meeting with a few noble ladies he knew, talked with Yan Yan for a while, and saw a person out of the corner of his eye.

After saying hello to them, Xie Tinglan walked towards the plum tree not far away.

"Second aunt."

Mrs. Wei Er, who was standing under the tree and watching around, heard the movement, turned around quickly, and said in surprise, "Stars!"

Xie Tinglan put his hand on Mrs. Wei's palm, and said with a smile: "Second Aunt finally came back. It's been half a year. Ever since Second Uncle and Aunt moved to Qingzhou, the Duke's Mansion has been deserted."

"Hey..." Mrs. Wei's face was sad, "I don't miss you, but your second uncle was sent to Qingzhou, and I don't know when he will be sent back to Beijing. You didn't see this year's festival. He won't come back, I have to deal with those things in Qingzhou, and I have been very busy in the past six months."

Xie Tinglan's starry eyes were full of deep meaning, and the two of them walked away from under the plum tree and followed the gravel path to a remote path.

"The incident in Qingzhou is so big, and my uncle was ordered in a crisis, so he must have left him with a lot of mess?" Xie Tinglan said softly.

Mrs. Wei Er sighed, "Who says it's not? The land enclosure case is over, and the prince's matter happened again. Your uncle was almost implicated, and now he dare not rest for a moment. He has been busy with the case for a whole day God. I still have to take advantage of these days to sort out all the files and hand them over when King Qi is gone."

Xie Tinglan tilted his head, looked at Mrs. Wei's face and said worriedly: "Auntie's complexion is not as good as before, but you are not acclimatized after going to Qingzhou?"

"Isn't it? After staying in the capital for a long time, I couldn't fall asleep when I went there suddenly. When I just passed by, Xiaoxiao was still arguing with me to come back." Mrs. Wei Er chuckled lightly, and followed Xie Tinglan talked about homework endlessly.

"Xiaoxiao said that she missed you not long after she left, and she wanted to go back to Beijing to look for you every now and then. Unfortunately, she was ill a few days ago, and the government doctor said she couldn't make a fuss, so she didn't come back to Beijing this time."

The two wives of the Wei family treated Xie Tinglan very well, and they also watched her grow up. Xie Tinglan had a deep relationship with them.

On weekdays, she would go to Duke Hu's Mansion to see them a few times every month. Now Mrs. Wei Er went to Qingzhou with her husband who was dispatched abroad. In the blink of an eye, she hadn't seen each other for half a year.

Although Xie Tinglan has her own plans, she still misses her sincerely.

She stopped, hugged Mrs. Wei Er, and said softly, "I also miss Second Aunt, you won't be able to stay in Beijing this time, and I don't know how long it will be until we see you next time..."

Mrs. Wei Er's eyes were sour, and she patted her on the back lightly, "When Qingzhou's affairs are free, I will often return to Beijing with a smile. You also take care of yourself in the capital, and you can find me if you encounter anything. If your eldest aunt and uncle are bullied in Xie's house, don't bear it by yourself, you know?"

Xie Tinglan nodded in her arms, Mrs. Wei was sad for a while before she calmed down.

"In just over a month it will be Second Aunt's birthday..."

Xie Tinglan took Mrs. Wei's hand, and suddenly mentioned this matter without beginning or end.

Mrs. Wei was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "It's coming soon... It's just that the situation in Qingzhou is not very good. I think it's not a big deal for this year's birthday, so as not to cause gossip."

"It's too deserted." Xie Tinglan murmured, then suddenly raised her head and said with a smile, "I'll go to Qingzhou to spend my birthday with my second aunt."

"I used to stay with my second aunt, but this year I can't make an exception." Xie Tinglan held Mrs. Wei's arm tenderly, smiling very tenderly.

Mrs. Wei's heart melted, "Auntie can stop you if you want to come. It's just that Qingzhou is still not very peaceful, or, let's forget this year. After Qingzhou's affairs are over, Auntie will pick you up to play."

"I just went to celebrate my aunt's birthday, and I don't run around, so nothing will happen."

It took Xie Tinglan a lot of talking to persuade Mrs. Wei Er, and he promised to take her with him on the day he left the capital.

After leaving the stone path, Mrs. Wei ran into her friend in the capital head-on, Xie Tinglan took the initiative to leave, and the two made an appointment in the Duke Huguo's mansion in a few days.

After achieving his goal, Xie Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief, his feet hurt from walking on the gravel road, so he stopped at an empty kiosk to rest.

Yuxiu squatted down and rubbed her ankles, taking advantage of the fact that there were no outsiders, she said softly: "Miss hasn't received His Highness's reply yet, if His Highness refuses to trust Miss, then why would Miss go to Qingzhou?"

The last time Xie Tinglan returned from Shuntian Mansion, she told Yuxiu about the matter.

She pressed her calf unhurriedly, and said in a gentle voice: "I was going to celebrate my second aunt's birthday. The prince's business is just an excuse to be here."

Xie Tinglan paused, and then said: "If he doesn't believe me, I can find out by myself. In short, I have an excuse to celebrate my second aunt's birthday, even if I appear in front of King Qi, it will not arouse his suspicion. "

Xie Tinglan is used to calculating every step she takes, trying her best to achieve her goal while ensuring her own safety.

She also prepared how to proceed with the next step under the situation that the crown prince doesn't believe her...

only……

Xie Tinglan blinked, his eyes were a little erratic.

She always felt in her heart that Fu Pingye would agree.

After all... they cooperated before, and they have a tacit understanding...

Yuxiu didn't notice Xie Tinglan's absence, she frowned, and said sullenly, "Why is Miss being so nice to the prince? She also helped him clear his innocence... The prince didn't trust Miss, and even strangled Miss's neck ..."

Xie Tinglan came back to his senses, chuckled lightly, the emotion in his eyes faded, and slowly said: "I treat him well now, and I want him to treat me better in the future. I trust him because he is one of those few people. , the most trustworthy person."

Xie Tinglan never does business at a loss.

And Fu Pingye is different from those trash, all she has to do is gain Fu Pingye's trust, and then cure the damn poison on him.

When Fu Pingye returns to normal, she doesn't have to worry about other things.

Taking advantage of no one around, Xie Tinglan stretched wantonly.

In this life, she wants to go more comfortably.

Xie Tinglan propped his forehead and thought so.

She treats Fu Pingye better now, and when he is well raised, she can tie him up to support the family.

This business is profitable.

Yuxiu stood up and asked, "Is that young lady still going to the Thousand Carp Pond?"

"Let's wait for the table to start. I don't know how many people are there now."

Yuxiu helped her leave the resting pavilion.

The two followed suit and walked towards the south side of the imperial garden.

When passing through a long corridor, Xie Tinglan glanced inadvertently, and his steps gradually stopped.

Yuxiu didn't understand, so she asked, "What's wrong, Miss?"

She followed Xie Tinglan's line of sight, and saw a short figure in a red padded coat squatting on the ground not far away.

Xie Tinglan narrowed his eyes in thought, "Who is that?"
