"Sister, do you believe Linlin?" Hua Jingyao asked seriously.

The third princess nodded. Although the face in front of her was not different from Linlin she remembered, only the two sisters knew about hiding in a box and sleeping and wetting the bed. Since she could become the third princess, Linlin could become her too.

Her memory ended when Linlin was seven years old.

She was fifteen years old at that time, and the next year she was preparing to marry.

"Okay, sister believes in me, I will let my sister see the ugliness in this world." At some point, Hua Jingyao's face no longer had a smile, and her voice was calm, exuding a calmness that was inconsistent with this body.

The third princess was stunned for a moment and asked in a daze: "Why?"

After saying these three words, she lowered her head guiltily. She still didn't believe Linlin. Maybe she didn't believe Linlin, but she didn't believe that Zhao Qian, who Linlin said, was such a person.

Hua Jingyao became more determined to think in her heart. She said: "In the last life, you were my sister and I was my sister. You have always been taking care of me; in this life, I am my sister, you have become my sister, so I want to protect you, but while I protect you, you must learn to protect yourself."

The third princess suddenly looked up and protected herself? What does it mean?

But Linlin is right. Although they are also sisters now, they are different from their previous lives.

Hua Jingyao didn't say anything anymore. She took the third princess' hand and walked out of the flower room.

When the two returned to the empress dowager, Shen Xiao had already left, which made Hua Jingyao feel relieved. She didn't want to see him at this time.

"Grandma, my second cousin's health has not recovered. Yaoyao wants to visit him with the third princess. Is it OK?" Hua Jingyao asked.

The empress dowager then remembered that she hadn't seen the second prince Zhao Qian for a while. What happened to the child? By the way, it seemed that she had a little bit of injury while taking a shower in the river. Yes, the emperor also said it was a minor injury, and it was no big deal, but after so long, the injury should be healed.

"You two are intent. Jiahui is in the palace with Ai's family all day long. I'm afraid she will be bored. You will go to the Second Prince's Mansion together tomorrow." The Empress Dowager agreed immediately.

"Okay, then I'll come to the palace to pick up the third princess tomorrow. By the way, grandmother, can Jiahui leave the palace with me often in the future?" Hua Jingyao asked again.

The Empress Dowager suddenly remembered the eldest princess of Zhaoyang back then. Zhaoyang was also determined to run out of the palace at that time, and was impeached by the censor for this reason. The late emperor was generous in this matter and did not scold Zhaoyang, but added ten secret guards to Zhaoyang.

Zhaoyang picked up the prince-consort for himself outside the palace. Although he was still separated later, Zhaoyang was really happy at that time. With Hua Yukun there, Zhaoyang could not see anyone else in his eyes.

The queen mother also had a smile on her lips. No matter her status, the good days of her daughter's family were the years when she was a girl. Once she got married, even if she was the queen, she would no longer have the ease and freedom she had when she was in her parents' home.

Yaoyao is twelve years old and will discuss marriage in two or three years. Although Jiahui is only eight years old, she has only been in the palace for six or seven years. Both of them are grown up by the Ai family. They are all good-looking children. They will not do anything out of the ordinary when they leave the palace to play. Besides, at worst, just like Zhaoyang, they can only choose a husband for themselves.

The Empress Dowager's heart, which had been tempered by Princess Zhaoyang, was calm at this time.

"Okay, but Jiahui is still young. She will take Qingchun with her when she leaves the palace. When Ai's family talks to the emperor later, Jiahui should have her own guard."

The princes and princesses all have guards, but the third princess is still young and has never left the palace before, so she has not yet equipped her with guards.

Hua Jingyao happily pulled the empress dowager's sleeve and shook it around. The third princess was stunned for a moment, and also pulled up the empress dowager's other sleeve like Hua Jingyao. The empress dowager was amused by the two of them and said to Hua Jingyao: "You little monkey, tell me quickly to the Ai family, where do you want to take Jiahui to play?"

Hua Jingyao took her fingers and found it: "Go to Caiyifang to make clothes, go to Jinyufang to make jewelry, and go to Dengshi Street to eat at a small stall..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the empress dowager: "No, it's fine to make clothes and jewelry. Those small stalls on the roadside cannot be eaten, and they will be damaged. Qingchun, when you look at them, you say that it was the Ai family who said that they are not allowed to eat at the stalls..."

The next day, Hua Jingyao entered the palace to pick up the third princess and went to the second prince's mansion together.

On the way, Hua Jingyao asked the third princess: "Has the Empress Dowager sent someone to Shitou Hutong to pay condolences?"

Yesterday was the second day of the funeral of the second family of Shen’s family. Today is the third day. Hua Jingyao guessed that Master Shen and Master Shen should come back as well.

The third princess lowered her voice and said, "After you left yesterday, the smile on the Empress Dowager's face disappeared. She sat there alone for a while and asked Zhong Xiaocheng to go to Shitou Hutong."

"Who asked Zhong Xiaocheng to go? Not Eunuch Huang?" Hua Jingyao asked.

"Yes, even Zhong Xiaocheng, you think it's strange." The third princess said slowly, looking like a little adult.

Both of them are eunuchs, but they are divided into different levels.

When Shen Xiao came back, the emperor sent Eunuch Lao to the house. Since the emperor can remember, Eunuch Lao has been with him. The emperor asked him to visit Shen Xiao, which shows his affection for Shen Xiao.

In the Cining Palace of the Empress Dowager, the eunuch in charge was Eunuch Huang. The empress dowager's imperial edict or the gifts to the family of the royal relatives and relatives was all due to Eunuch Huang. The Zhong Xiaocheng was just a person who was circulating errands in the Cining Palace to the Twenty-four yamen.

The third princess added: "When Zhong Xiaocheng took the order out, Liu Nushi called him and asked him to go to the washing machine to take back the clothes he sent to the weaving office."

In the twenty-four yamen, only the washing clothes bureau was not in the palace, so Zhong Xiaocheng really did it by the way.

When Shen Xia saw that the person coming was just a low-level eunuch, he was afraid that he would whip out his anger again.

Of course she didn't dare to whip Zhong Xiaocheng.

"Xiao Ai, you don't have to follow us to the Second Prince's Mansion. You can take the snacks you just brought from the palace and go to Shitou Hutong, and say it was for Miss Shen Er."

Xiao Ai responded. At this time, the third princess asked Hua Jingyao: "Do you know that Miss Shen Er?"

Hua Jingyao said: "I happened to meet yesterday. I was only ten years old. The eldest aunt of the Shen family has a very bad temper. Miss Shen Er has a difficult life. The scar on her face that was whipped by her aunt has not yet disappeared."

"Since that's the case, then..." The third princess thought for a moment, called Guo Qingchun, and said, "Auntie, let's arrange it and get Xiao Ai two boxes of jade-like cream."

Yurong ointment is a strange medicine for treating scars. Because the medicinal materials used are difficult to find, they can only make dozens of boxes every year, all of which are left in the palace.

Upon hearing this, Qingchun called two guards, took Xiao Ai to the palace to get medicine, and then took Xiao Ai to Shitou Hutong.
