Concubine to conquer the world

Chapter 992
Today, I deliberately took out Maojian, which I had treasured for a long time, to make tea for her, which was considered very polite to her.

The eldest princess didn't even look at the tea, she turned her face away and looked around the yard.

After immersing herself in it for a while, Youyou said, "This courtyard has not changed at all."

"I came back after many years. The capital has changed a lot. The imperial palace has become so difficult that I can hardly find my way. However, the Prince's East Palace is still the same."

Following the eldest princess' words, Xia Qingxin struggled to pull the corners of her lips to reveal an awkward yet polite smile.

Xia Qingxin felt that what the eldest princess said sounded like she was nostalgic, but when she thought about it carefully, she seemed to be saying that she was lazy.

The implication is that even though she became the hostess of the East Palace, she never took care of the yard.
Is the eldest princess deliberately insinuating that she is very incompetent as a crown princess?
Xia Qingxin clenched the handkerchief tightly.

Suddenly, I felt that this sounded very uncomfortable.

Xia Qingxin's expression froze for a moment, but within a second, she still had a smile like a spring breeze.

"The prince said that the queen mother arranged this yard for him, and he liked it very much, so Xin'er didn't dare to change the yard without authorization."

"The East Palace my aunt saw today is naturally the East Palace in the past."

Speaking of this, Xia Qingxin lowered her eyes and showed a very sad look.

"I think my aunt has heard about the queen mother's affairs. This yard can't be changed now."

"The queen mother left so suddenly that there are no relics left behind, but this courtyard is the only memory that the queen mother left for His Highness."

Hearing what Xia Qingxin said, the eldest princess turned her head and glanced at her.

Seeing her very sad look, she slowly opened her lips: "I don't need to tell you why I came to Beijing this time, you will understand."

"I came to you today because Yan'er told me in a letter from home that you are the only one who treats her well in the capital."

"First, I came to thank you for taking care of Yan'er. Second, I wanted to discuss with you. What should I do about this matter?"

After the words fell, the eldest princess looked at Xia Qingxin with firm eyes.

Xia Qingxin was slightly taken aback.

Soon, she showed an embarrassing look: "Auntie, Xin'er didn't take care of Cousin Gu Yan, Cousin Gu Yan is in trouble now, Xin'er can't say anything in front of the emperor."

"Xin'er has nothing to do except worry."

Hearing this, the eldest princess smiled faintly.

"You know that our Gu family has been away from the capital for many years, and we can say that we have no support in the capital. When Gu Yan came here, if you treat her well, she will feel that you are like a relative."

"Come to think of it, you also know what happened to her in the dungeon."

Hearing what the eldest princess said, Xia Qing's heart tightened.

She looked at the eldest princess with a serious face: "Auntie, ever since Cousin Gu Yan was imprisoned in the dungeon, Xin'er has had trouble sleeping and eating all day long."

"Xin'er went to visit her, but it's not convenient to go in and out of there from time to time, so she asked someone to keep an eye on her situation in private."

Having said that, she paused.

After a pause, he continued: "So. Cousin Gu Yan's current situation is naturally very clear."

"Xin'er tried to find the imperial doctor secretly, but the jailer refused to let her go. So, in desperation, Xin'er could only wait anxiously for her aunt to come."
