After a long time, Huan'er looked at the woman seriously, and said tentatively, "Xiao Le?"

This sentence of Xiaole made the woman stunned for an instant, her eyes were full of surprise, and she said in a trembling tone: "Eldest sister?"

"En." Huan'er nodded with difficulty. She never thought that she would be able to see her sister again, but she was already a mother.

"Sister, come in and tell me." Xiao Le quickly opened the fence, and invited Huan'er to come in, while looking at Chu Yunjiao, he asked in confusion, "Sister, who is this girl?"

In Xiao Le's eyes, her sister's clothes are already pretty enough, but her own coarse clothes are really incomparable.And Chu Yunjiao's dress was even more luxurious, which not only made her feel a little timid.

Sometimes she would do casual work for rich families, and the ladies of those rich families all dressed so nicely.

"This is the master I serve." Huan'er said truthfully, and followed Xiao Le into the room.

Chu Yunjiao raised her eyes casually to look at the shabby house, Xiao Le brought water, pursed her lips and said, "My family is poor, Miss, don't dislike it."

"It's okay." Chu Yunjiao said indifferently, then turned to Huan'er and said, "Huan'er, you sisters talk, don't worry about me, there is not much time."

"Yes." Huan'er replied, and then heard a trembling voice from the room inside: "Xiao Le, who is here?"

"Mother, it's the elder sister who is back." Xiao Le walked over quickly and replied.

Under Chu Yunjiao's gesture, Huan'er also walked over, choked up and said, "Father, mother."

Chu Yunjiao was sitting outside waiting, and occasionally she could hear voices speaking inside, and a bitterness flashed in her eyes.

After staying for about an hour, Huan'er came out reluctantly, apologetic in his tone: "Princess, slave..."

Before she could finish speaking, Chu Yunjiao shook her head and took out a piece of silver, "Leave it to your parents and sister, don't refuse."

"Yes." Huan'er took it, held it in his hand, and handed it to his sister with a heavy weight.

Xiao Le sent them outside the village, where Luo Yu was already waiting.

"Sister, will you come back?" Xiao Le asked with some expectation.

Huan'er was in a bit of a dilemma for a moment, not knowing how to answer, and she nodded her head not wanting to disappoint Xiao Le.

It wasn't until she was sitting in the carriage that Huan'er felt that it was just a dream, a dream she didn't want to wake up from.

Every month, she asked someone to bring her monthly money, two liang of silver, back home. The person withdrew one tael privately, and only gave one tael to her younger sister, Xiao Le.

As for the one tael of silver, relatives and friends still come to borrow it, and they don’t pay it back. Anyway, you have a tael of silver every month, and we don’t have it, so you can’t be worse.

Dad is sick, and mother can't get off the ground, so she can only rely on her sister to do odd jobs for support, and her own children.The only younger brother in the family also said to go outside to seek a living. I heard that he had a wife and lived a good life. He didn't want to be implicated by the family, so he didn't come back. Occasionally, he asked someone to bring something back during the festival.

Chu Yunjiao quietly listened to Huan'er talking about the trivial matters at home, feeling more helpless.Probably due to not being at home all year round, Huaner said that she felt a lot too much.

"As long as they are all here." Chu Yunjiao said shallowly, Huan'er thought that Chu Yunjiao was missing her late mother and concubine.

But in fact, she was thinking about more than 100 members of the Wang family.

Xia Mengze and several ladies from aristocratic families have been waiting in Hanshan Temple for more than two hours, but Chu Yunjiao is still missing.

Mrs. Xing's daughter Xing Yue complained, "Mengze, we've been waiting for so long, so the princess won't come."

She didn't have much impression of Chu Yunjiao, and even if she did, she had heard of it through the adults' words. To put it bluntly, she was a princess who the emperor hadn't cared about for more than ten years. It was indeed a bit unbelievable that she cared so much all of a sudden.

"She said she would come, so let's wait." Xia Mengze's tone was also a little uncertain, this Chu Yunjiao would not want to let her own pigeons go.

"She's a princess, how can she just say it out, I think, I guess it won't come, so let's break up." Mrs. Liu's daughter Liu Yanran said a little sarcastically, she said to Chu Yun Jiao was very disdainful.

Will a princess who has been loved and grown up be inferior to a princess who has been neglected and grown up?impossible.

The three of them talked to each other, only Liu Yingxue watched them talking silently.

Liu Yingxue is Liu Yanran's cousin. When she came out this time, Liu Yanran was ordered to bring Liu Yingxue with her. She had no choice but to bring her here.

Fortunately, Liu Yingxue has always been well-behaved and easy-going, so Liu Yanran doesn't care.

"What's the rush?" Xia Mengze said pretending to be calm, just as he raised his eyes, he saw Chu Yunjiao walking slowly towards them, and raised his chin, "Hey, this is not here."

Then Xia Mengze went up to meet her, stroked her body, "I've seen the princess, but I thought the princess wouldn't come."

"Mianli, since I promised you, I will definitely come. But something has delayed me." Chu Yunjiao said flatly, seeing the other three women salute to him, and nodded slightly.

She probably has a little impression of these young ladies. It's not surprising that they can be with Xia Mengze, after all, they are all similar.

Only that Liu Yingxue was different.

"Cousin, why do you want to come here to see the flowers?" Chu Yunjiao asked, her eyes lingering all over the place. As expected, the chrysanthemums this year were in full bloom as in previous years.

Counting the days, now is not the best time to enjoy flowers, so there are not many people coming.

"The princess is in the palace all the year round, so she definitely doesn't know it. Only the chrysanthemums in Hanshan Temple bloom the best." Xing Yue interjected to express herself.

Master Xing knew that Xing Yue was coming to see Chu Yunjiao, and he had specially told her to have a good relationship with Chu Yunjiao, maybe there would be a time when it would come in handy.

She wasn't very happy, but there was nothing she could do.

Not only Xing Yue, but everyone else has been told in this way.

"I see." Chu Yunjiao nodded, looking at the flourishing flowers, she couldn't help but think back to the past.Trying hard to restrain his thoughts, he said as if he didn't want to: "The chrysanthemums here are very different from those in the palace. The chrysanthemums in the palace are all selected and cut, and the ones here are all natural, which is different. Charm."

"What the princess sees in the palace are all high-grade, but here are ordinary chrysanthemums, I don't know if they can catch the eyes of the princess." Xia Mengze said with a gentle smile,

Although she spoke so humbly, Chu Yunjiao still sensed a trace of contempt in her words.

Chu Yun smiled coquettishly, probably because Xia Mengze was making fun of her as an unfavored princess who had never seen anything in the world.

"Princess is in the palace, naturally she has seen some precious and rare things. It's not like us. If you want to see it, you have to have a chance."

Chu Yunjiao hadn't spoken yet, but Xing Yue who was at the side said with a coquettish smile.

She didn't want to get close to this princess, but since her father ordered it, there was a certain reason for it, and she had to do it.

"That's natural. There are countless things in the palace, and it's dazzling to see. It's still very good to see the beautiful scenery outside the mountain once in a while."

Chu Yunjiao smiled slightly, looked into the distance, and said casually.

Xing Yue's blunders, and Chu Yunjiao's lack of humility, let Xia Mengze speak.It was very uncomfortable to hold it in my throat.

"Princess, the chrysanthemums are blooming very well in front, let's go and have a look."

Liu Yanran, who was traveling with her, glanced at Xia Mengze with disdain. Although they were good friends on weekdays, they actually compared each other.

Seeing Xia Mengze's few words, Chu Yunjiao was speechless, Liu Yanran felt that Xia Mengze was nothing more than that.

But thinking that the purpose of their visit today was for Chu Yunjiao, Liu Yanran deliberately changed the subject.

How could Chu Yunjiao fail to see such an unreliable trick?He just pretended to be ignorant and said, "Alright, let's go to the front."

"This young lady looks very unfamiliar." Chu Yunjiao looked at Liu Yingxue very carelessly and said.

In fact, she noticed this woman just now, she was dressed in green clothes, the jewelry was well decorated, she did not overwhelm the host, and she did not lose her courtesy, she looked quiet and seemed to know how to advance and retreat.

"My daughter Liu Yingxue, I have met the princess." Liu Yingxue saluted Chu Yunjiao generously.

Chu Yunjiao looked at the woman in front of her, and she immediately liked her a little more.

Before Xia Mengze, Liu Yanran, and Xing Yue saluted, it was more or less perfunctory.

It's just that she didn't want to mention it. Although it was the first time seeing the woman in front of her, Chu Yunjiao felt that she was much better than the daughters of other aristocratic families.

"The princess doesn't know. This is one of my cousins. Because of some incidents at home, she is staying with us. But her father also has some friendship with my father, so I brought her here."

Liu Yanran helped Bu Yao on her bun, and explained to Chu Yunjiao, her words were full of arrogance.

If it wasn't for a good show today, which required Liu Yingxue to be the green leaves lining the flowers, how could she be full and carry such a "Miss Tang."

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Liu Yingxue's face changed slightly, but she still lowered her head, standing there neither humble nor overbearing.

And Chu Yunjiao probably understood what was going on, so she didn't say any more.

"I don't know why the princess was delayed before? We sisters waited for a long time, thinking that the princess won't come!"

While walking, Xia Mengze chatted with Chu Yunjiao like a normal chat.

Chu Yunjiao looked at Xia Mengze calmly, seeing her doubts but not just doubts, she couldn't help being a little funny.

What does this Xia Mengze want to do!

Although she hated Xia Mengze, Chu Yunjiao replied without changing her face, "It's nothing, but I saw a beautiful scenery on the road, I took a second look and forgot the time, I kept everyone waiting for a long time."

Saying that, they had already arrived at the foot of Hanshan Temple, and there was a row of steps above. Huan'er at the side hurried over to support Chu Yunjiao.

Perhaps this body is born weak, Chu Yunjiao's every move has the talent of a weak willow supporting the wind.

"Hey, even if the princess doesn't come today, we don't dare to say anything." Liu Yanran looked at Chu Yunjiao's good figure and beautiful face, and began to speak with words.

Coupled with Chu Yunjiao's innate nobleness, Liu Yanran felt uncomfortable in her heart. She was obviously the daughter of a daughter who was spoiled and brought up, so why is she not as unfavored as Chu Yunjiao? .

But just relying on having an emperor's father, his status is overpowering.

Seeing Liu Yanran mocking Chu Yunjiao as a princess but being so impolite, Liu Yingxue frowned slightly and spoke.

"What is the cousin talking about? We invite the princess to enjoy the chrysanthemum. The princess is a distinguished guest. Even if the princess is late, it should be."

"In other words, as ministers and daughters, we are waiting for the princess. Even if the princess doesn't come, we shouldn't complain halfway. This is the way of the monarch and his ministers."

Liu Yingxue spoke in a calm tone, but made Liu Yanran very angry, and stared at Liu Yingxue fiercely.

This little hoof, I really didn't notice it, usually looks honest, but at this time, I know how to please Chu Yunjiao, so I'll see how to deal with her when I go back.

Chu Yunjiao was quite surprised that Liu Yingxue would speak for her, she pushed away Huan'er's supporting hand and said, "Miss Liu knows the general idea, could it be that I'm late, and the other young ladies have a crush on me?" Complaints?"

Yin Luo, Dan Feng's pretty eyes looked towards Xia Mengze and Liu Yanran, with a smile on his face, but a sense of sternness

Xing Yue originally wanted to please Chu Yunjiao, so how could it be possible for Chu Yunjiao to feel that she would complain when she complained, so she hastily explained, "Of course not, the princess is worrying too much, and we have just arrived not long ago."

As for Xia Mengze and Liu Yanran, how could they admit it, but they hastily denied it, "How could that be? We specially invited the princess to enjoy the chrysanthemums. If the princess doesn't come, there will be no interest for the rest of us."

Naturally, Xia Mengze would not let Chu Yunjiao leave at this time because of Liu Yanran's slip of the tongue, otherwise, her thoughts today would be in vain.

Several people looked at Chu Yunjiao with bright smiles, Chu Yunjiao looked at them with a half-smile, and stopped talking.

"Oh, I'm so exhausted. If I knew this, I should have come up in the sedan chair." Before taking a few steps, Liu Yanran couldn't take it anymore, and hurriedly rubbed her knees.

"Don't say it's a sedan chair, just leave a few maids to help us." Xia Mengze couldn't stand it anymore, and Xing Yue beside him was not much better.

If she hadn't made other arrangements today to send away the servant girl who was serving her, how could she be so laborious at this time.

Chu Yunjiao raised her head and looked at the more than 100 steps, with a flash of understanding in her eyes.They were all young ladies who hadn't experienced any hardships, and after walking a few steps, they couldn't take it anymore.

She is fine, Huan'er supports her from time to time, besides, Chu Yunjiao, who has resurrected her life, has a different temperament from ordinary people, so how could she lack such patience.

On the contrary, Liu Yingxue, who had been silent all this time, made Chu Yunjiao take a look. She was also Miss Jiaorou, but Liu Yingxue seemed to have experienced a lot of things, which was better than the other few people. A lot.

"Princess, there is still some way to go. Let me help you." Huan'er stepped forward to support Chu Yunjiao. Although she was a little tired, she still remembered her duty as a maid.

Seeing the fine beads of sweat on her forehead, Chu Yunjiao waved her hand, indicating that there was no need for it.

Xia Mengze and Liu Yanran at the side looked at Chu Yunjiao enviously. Just as they were about to speak, Chu Yunjiao understood what they meant.

However, before she could speak, Liu Yingxue had already expressed her meaning for her.

Liu Yingxue walked up to Chu Yunjiao a few steps and said, "Does the princess feel tired?"

Chu Yunjiao smiled and shook her head, "Fortunately, although I am a princess, I am not so delicate and artificial."

"Yeah, I just have to work harder to climb up, and when I admire the chrysanthemums, I will only feel that this chrysanthemum will only be more beautiful than the previous ones."

The two exchanged a few words, which blocked Xia Mengze and Liu Yanran's desire to manipulate Huan'er, so they had no choice but to rub their tired and sore legs and continue walking up.

Chu Yunjiao and Liu Yingxue chatted casually in front of them, and the more they talked, the more they hit it off, and the originally long stairs didn't feel so boring.

As for Liu Yanran, Xia Mengze, and Xing Yue, they fell behind and complained from time to time, but Chu Yunjiao didn't pay much attention to them.

It was just that she was about to arrive at Hanshan Temple, but Xia Mengze behind her suddenly called out to stop Chu Yunjiao, "Princess, wait for us."

Hearing the sound, Chu Yunjiao turned around, and saw Xia Mengze and Liu Yanran walking towards her, their cheeks were flushed because they were too anxious, and they became more and more gorgeous as if they were dyed with rouge.

Chu Yunjiao was wondering why Xia Mengze didn't call early or late, but called to stop her when she was about to arrive. From the corner of her eye, she saw a few figures coming towards her, so she paid more attention.

Sure enough, Xia Mengze caught up with her in a few steps, smiled at her, but deliberately stepped on her skirt.

A sneer flashed across Chu Yunjiao's eyes, she turned around pretending not to notice, but kicked Xia Mengze quickly the moment she moved her foot.

"what!"

"what!"

Xia Mengze only felt a piercing pain coming from his bare ankle, he couldn't stand still and fell over, he hurriedly grabbed Liu Yanran, but due to inertia, the two of them fell down together and almost rolled down the steps.

Suddenly, there were two screams, and the jewels and jewelry were scattered all over the place.

"Oh, cousin, why are you so careless? If you fall down such a high step, you will die!"

Liu Yingxue came to her senses and hurried to help Liu Yanran and Xia Mengze.

When Chu Yunjiao saw the figure that was getting closer and closer, she suppressed the disgust in her heart, and looked at the two people on the ground in a good mood.

Xia Mengze, now you know what it means to be self-inflicted!

Xia Mengze and Liu Yanran were supported to stand up, they still had the brilliance just now, their little faces were pale and pale, their buns were also messed up, once covered with dust, they were very embarrassed.

"Isn't this Miss Xia, Master Liu's daughter? What's wrong with you?"

At this moment, several luxuriously dressed young masters came over, among the crowd, there was the figure of Xiao Zhi.

Xia Mengze and Liu Yanran, who were already in pain all over, felt even more embarrassed seeing themselves making a fool of themselves in front of so many princes from aristocratic families.

On the other hand, Xia Mengze, seeing Xiao Zhi, immediately put on a cute and pitiful look, very weak.

Immediately, she looked at Chu Yunjiao with tears in her eyes, "Princess, why did you push me?"

Chu Yunjiao was taken aback when she heard the words, and then a sneer sneered in her heart. This Xia Mengze was really deep in her thoughts, and she made another plan if one plan failed.

Before, he wanted her to make a fool of herself in front of everyone, but in the end it was her who made a fool of herself, so she pretended to be weak and innocent, in order to give herself a reputation of being cruel and merciless.

No matter what purpose Xia Mengze has today, these two actions alone are enough to show that she has ulterior motives!

As soon as Xia Mengze finished speaking, many princes from aristocratic families looked at Chu Yunjiao suspiciously, among them Xiao Zhi was the leader.

"Why did Miss Xia say that?" Chu Yunjiao calmly helped her clothes.

Since Xia Mengze wanted to sing and write a play, how could she spoil her interest so easily.

And Xia Mengze's tear-filled eyes flickered slightly, she was a little surprised, she thought Chu Yunjiao would directly deny it, or use the princess' majesty to suppress her.

Then when the time came, she would take advantage of the situation to endure the grievances, and those present would definitely think that she was well-versed in the book and the general principles, and they would not have a good impression of the princess who was suddenly favored.

Maybe, just today, Chu Yunjiao could get a notorious reputation because of it.

But Chu Yunjiao is so neither arrogant nor impatient, it's hard for her to continue acting.

But now that the matter has come to this, how could she give up easily, otherwise she would be too ugly today.

"Princess, how could you do this? You pushed me just now, and I fell down, and you also caused Miss Liu to fall to the ground with me. Why..."

As Xia Mengze said, tears rolled down his face, but he seemed to be afraid of Chu Yunjiao, so he held back his tears.

What a beauty who "remains restless"!

Even Chu Yunjiao found it vivid. How could the animals present who were thinking from the lower half of their body miss the opportunity to pity the beauty, so several young masters had cast their eyes of condemnation on Chu Yunjiao.

"Oh? I pushed Miss Xia?" Chu Yunjiao asked in confusion, "Who saw it?"

"If I remember correctly, I was walking in front of Miss Xia just now, and it was Miss Xia who asked me to stop. Could it be..."

Miss Xia specifically asked me to stop and push myself?

Chu Yunjiao didn't say what she said later, but everyone understood the meaning, and for a while, several people looked at Xia Mengze suspiciously.

"Why should the princess be like this, just apologize to Miss Xia, I believe Miss Xia is not a stingy person!"

On the contrary, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but stepped forward and opened his mouth, how could he stand by and watch his sweetheart so lovable.

"That's right, I don't think Miss Xia is lying..."

At the same time, several young masters who had good friends with Xiao Zhi hurriedly agreed.

Hearing this, Chu Yunjiao's eyes turned cold instantly, "Who are you to accuse me like that?!"

"Besides, Miss Xia has evidence to prove that I pushed her. If not, it is a crime of slandering the royal family. Then I don't need to say more about the end!"

Chu Yunjiao's tone was still calm and murderous, which also woke up the minds of the few aristocratic young men who were stunned by the beauty.

Especially Xia Mengze's face turned pale and pale. She didn't know how to respond. She was already guilty, but when she heard what Chu Yunjiao said, she gritted her teeth and persisted.

Besides, this is not the purpose of her coming today, and she can't lose the big because of small things.
