Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 16 Virtual and Real

Su Ying's tone was somewhat alienated: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has spoken seriously. Mr. Wei has business matters to attend to. As the daughter of the Prime Minister, Su Ying should cooperate and not interrupt."

Situ Yan raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a gentle voice: "Queen Gu's mother and Mrs. Su are close friends. Sister Ying'er and I have known each other since childhood. Since Mrs. Su's death, sister Ying'er rarely enters the palace. We meet again today. , Sister Ying'er is somewhat alienated from Gu."

Su Ying's whole body suddenly became tense, and the hands hidden in her sleeves clenched tightly unconsciously. But soon, she concealed all her emotions and looked up at Situ Yan calmly, without leaving any emotion in her words. noodle.

"His Royal Highness, what you said is wrong. The Queen is a heavenly being. My mother is just a court lady. She only thinks highly of her and occasionally comes to the palace to talk. The court lady didn't know the rules when she was young, so she often disturbed His Highness. I really don’t dare to call you my sister, my daughter, and I will call my daughter Su Ying in the future.”

Situ Yan's expression changed instantly, the light in his eyes flashed, and his voice became softer: "Sister Ying'er still remembers when she was a child, she said she would marry an orphan when she grew up..."

Su Ying couldn't help the emotions in her heart and interrupted him directly: "Your Highness, you can't do what a child says. Your Royal Highness is so beautiful. Su Ying is vulgar. She doesn't know anything about music, chess, calligraphy or painting. Except for her family background, it makes sense." Among the noble girls in the capital, there is no talent at all, and there are many who are worthy of His Highness the Crown Prince, and I would like to ask His Highness the Crown Prince to forget the nonsense he said about my daughter."

Situ Yan didn't expect Su Ying to speak so directly. What he originally wanted to say was stuck in his throat, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

He coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment: "Well... I see that this courtyard is extremely exquisitely decorated, why don't sister Ying'er take me to visit this courtyard?"

Su Ying refused directly without thinking: "His Royal Highness is the son of the royal family. I think the royal villa is much more beautiful than my family's villa. This is just an ordinary villa with no beautiful scenery to enjoy. My brother I’m still sick and don’t like noisy things. I’m sorry for my rudeness, Your Highness, please come back!”

Situ Yan was rejected repeatedly, and he couldn't save his face after all, but Su Ying was resolute. He couldn't find a reason to enter the other courtyard for a while, so he had to leave with his men.

He stood at the door of the villa, his eyes fell on the four words "Luoxiang villa", the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his impression of Su Ying changed a bit. She was different from other noble ladies. It was rumored that she was arrogant and domineering. She was extremely vulgar, but now she seemed to have the proper etiquette, but her temperament was a little cooler, and she was beautiful. He had never seen a woman who didn't give him face, which made him feel more for Su Ying. Somewhat interested.

Situ Yan got on the carriage and hooked his hand at the guard beside him: "Send someone to monitor everyone coming in and out of here. Let the secret guards go in tonight to explore the truth. Don't hurt the people inside."

"Your Highness, Miss Su seems to be very hostile to His Highness. Why didn't Your Highness just bring someone in to search?" The guard beside him asked with some confusion. With the way the prince used to do it, he never had to give face to anyone. It was all because of other people trying to flatter him. Today, every word of Su Ying's answer did not show any dignity to the prince. In the past, the prince would have been angry long ago.

"After all, this is the Prime Minister's territory. Although Gu is the prince, Prime Minister Su has always been neutral in the court. Naturally, her daughter Gu will have to give some face." Situ Yan remembered that when he was a child, he followed behind him and shouted that he wanted to marry him. The little girl, now that she has grown up, is so alienated from him. He doesn't understand why Su Ying's attitude has changed so much.

After Situ Yan left, Su Ying ordered Xia Yu: "Inform all the servants in the mansion that no matter how many people come from other courtyards tonight, please do not act rashly. Let the secret guards go to the dark room and do not show their faces."

Xia Yu said doubtfully: "Miss, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this. The safety of the young lady and the third young master is important."

A smile appeared on Su Ying's lips: "Don't worry, my father is also the prime minister after all. He doesn't have any evidence. He just came to explore the truth. The more calm we are, the less likely he will be suspicious. The vigils that should be kept at night and the patrols that should be patrolled will continue as usual. That’s it.”

As Su Ying expected, the courtyard in the middle of the night seemed calm and calm, but there was an undercurrent surging in the dark. The prince's secret guards went in and out of various rooms in the courtyard like ghosts. Su Ying lay on her side in the room with the dark room, the quilt He held the silver needle tightly with his hands, closed his eyes, and tried to breathe steadily. His back was already soaked with sweat. Fortunately, those people just opened the bed curtain and saw clearly the person lying on the bed before exiting the room.

An hour later, the entire courtyard became peaceful again, and it wasn't until midnight that Su Ying fell asleep.
