After finishing the fourth chapter with 1,000 reviews, Flower will temporarily return to updating th...Once he truly left the palace, even if he occasionally came to visit, things were not as swift as they used to be.
Thus....
"Three of you, Xiao Lü. You all understand the saying, 'Train your soldiers for a thousand days, use them for a single day,' right"
Jia Yin stroked the little fox's tail and gently tapped the top of the little green snake's head, smiling like a wolf in grandma's clothing trying to lure Little Red Riding Hood.
"Now that there are difficulties at home, I'm really troubled. So tonight, I'm giving you an important task."
The little fox chirped twice, finding its owner's appearance quite strange.
Knowing her master, she was afraid he'd be tricked!
As expected, Jia Yin scooped the little fox into her arms and began assigning tasks.
“Tomorrow, I will be leaving the palace. I will leave you in the care of the Third Princess for a while. You must be my eyes and ears, run around the palace and gather any news. Be sure to report back to me as soon as possible, understand”
The little fox frantically burrowed in Jiayin's arms, desperately expressing its displeasure.
Don't be a discarded fox!
But Jia Yin was unusually resolute, refusing to relent.
"Three Stripes, aren't you too heartless You've lived in my space for so many years, eating fruits whenever you want, and I even make fish jerky, meat cakes, and fish patties for you from time to time. You've grown plumper because of all the food I've given you, but now you're going to be ungrateful and not willing to do even a small favor"
Jia Yin's face was filled with disappointment as she held the little fox in front of her, forcing it to meet her gaze.
As expected, the little fox was defeated in no time.
Then, it reluctantly extended a paw.
Jia Yin immediately smiled and nodded vigorously.
"Don't worry, just send a message home and I'll give you five fish cakes! Guaranteed no deductions!"
The little fox was now satisfied. He nestled in Jia Yin's arms and fell silent.
The little green snake tilted its head, flicking its tongue, still awaiting its mission.
That obedient little look made Jia Yin immediately drop the little fox and hold it in her hand.
"Little Green, you'll have to live among the palace grass for a while, but don't worry, I'll take you back before the weather turns cold, I promise you won't freeze."
Little Green tilted her head and kept sticking out her tongue.
Seeing that it didn't object, but also didn't seem to understand much, Jiayin decisively gave up and turned to instruct the little fox instead.
"Three, I've been quite fond of Little Green lately. Don't let it bite anyone, and be careful not to lose it. Perhaps..."
Before she could finish her words, she truly didn't want to have to use Xiaolu's power. After all, once Xiaolu spoke, it would inevitably take a life, and she wouldn't be able to live either.
But things are unpredictable, no one can see what the future holds. Still, we should be prepared...
Three things oppressed Xiao Lv, it was ingrained in Xiao Lv's bones. After all, being locked in a cage for ten years, playing the Ferris wheel every day, she had lost all her temper.
So, with three chirps and a few trills, Xiao Lv nodded obediently.
The next morning, breakfast was served. The Third Princess, with dark circles under her eyes, desperately piled food onto Jia Yin's plate as if Jia Yin would never return and she would never be able to eat the meals from Zhi Lan Palace again.
Jia Yin laughed, her tone both amused and endearing. "Don't let people think we're separated by life and death," she said playfully. "You can come visit me anytime you want! And with this excuse, you could even sneak out of the palace more often."
The Third Princess pouted, "You're lying to me again. Just because I go out of the palace every day doesn't mean I can always have you with me like this."
Jiayin beckoned to the window, and the little fox on the table immediately jumped over.
Jia Yin kissed the little fox and then handed it to the Third Princess.
"Knowing you'll be lonely after I suddenly leave, so these days, I've left three to keep you company."
"Really!" The third princess was overjoyed, hugging the three puppies tightly, afraid that Jiayin would change her mind.
Girls are naturally drawn to fluffy animals, and even more so when they have three tails. Beautiful and full of spirit, who could resist a fox like that
Unfortunately, the little fox is a bit of a tsundere. Besides Jia Yin, she rarely lets others hold her.
"Haha, Three Stripes, you'll be staying with this princess from now on. Don't worry, there's plenty of dried fish! I'm not as stingy as your old master!"
The Third Princess offered many benefits in one breath, which finally made the little fox happy and it chirped twice at her.
Jia Yin instructed, "The three goldfish shouldn't eat too much salt, no more than five or six fish cakes a day. Also, it has a mischievous nature and likes to run around and play, so don't restrain it, and don't worry if it gets lost."
"Just make sure no one hurts it..."
"Oh, stop nagging!" Princess Three waved her hand dismissively. "It's my baby now, and if anyone dares to hurt it, I'll break their legs!"
As she spoke, she started shooing them away again. "The sun is so high already, you should go home! In a while, I'm going to take the three of them to stroll through Yu Garden!"
Jiayin rolled her eyes and laughed, "You said so! Don't expect me to help you later!"
"I already have three, so I don't want you!" The third princess was tough-mouthed and full of spirit.
Jia Yin looked at the sky, it was indeed getting late. Leaving the palace at this time would be just right.
Then, she had Shui Ling and Shui Yun make the arrangements.
The little eunuchs and maids in Zhilan Palace were all reluctant to see Jiayin leave the palace.
It's not that the previous three princesses were particularly tyrannical and domineering, constantly scolding and beating them. Now that the princess has become much more peaceful and reasonable, they no longer have to live in fear.
After Jia Yin came, they occasionally had snacks and extra dishes to satisfy their cravings.
Occasionally, I help run errands and get some extra pocket money as a reward.
Most importantly, the county princess always played with them, kicking shuttlecocks or playing ball. There were prizes if they won.
Every time at Zhi Lan Palace, it's as lively as Chinese New Year...
It’s probably going to be hard to have such good days again…
Everyone packed with reluctance, then carried the boxes out of Zhi Lan Palace.
Two carriages were parked outside the palace gate, and Feng Gonggong was smiling as he waited by the carriage.
"Upon seeing you, I immediately said with a smile, 'My Lady Princess, this old servant is here to escort you. It's almost time for court, and there will be many people. With this old servant's face, you can leave the palace earlier.'"
"Alright, thank you, Mr. Feng. It would be even better if you could come back to Suijin Beach with me. I'll pick a few baskets of good fruit for you."
Grandmaster Feng laughed with even greater delight, but waved his hand in refusal. "This time it's not possible, Your Majesty is busy and this old slave cannot leave. I will definitely visit the princess next time there is an opportunity."
While the two were talking, the trunk was loaded onto the carriage.
Jia Yin supported Shui Ling's hand and got onto the first carriage. Feng Gonggong took his seat on the carriage shaft.
As for the Third Princess, perhaps she was afraid of crying, so she didn't dare to come out...
The palace gates for noblewomen or family members of officials entering and exiting the imperial capital in Beijing would be different from the gates used by officials going to court and leaving court.
But now we are in the Jiangnan region, the new capital is small, and the imperial palace was originally a former palace rebuilt, so we don't have to worry about so many rules.
As a result, when Jia Yin's two carriages arrived at the palace gate, they unexpectedly encountered the civil and military officials who were going to court together.
Two updates today ~~very least, I won't have to worry about my eldest grandson's education expenses in the future. We can afford anything he needs.The villagers were all smiles, their minds busy calculating how to spend...
