After crossing the road

Chapter 128 The Chess Pieces in the Imperial Court

After Hua Qingkong left, Liu Hanxi could only concentrate on his career and had nothing else to do.

He had broken Princess Heng in the palace before, and Prince Heng's money was not settled, but he didn't come again. I'm afraid life in the mansion is not easy.Some aristocratic royal families seem to have a great career, but in fact they have long been stretched because of their profligacy.

Seeing that the end of the year was approaching, Liu Hanxi began to plan for dividends and prepare gifts for the New Year.

She first took a small box of banknotes and gifts to Prince Yi's Mansion.Princess Yi's life is actually difficult. The entire family of Yi Wang's family is supported by her alone. Yi Wang can only write poems and paintings to find widows.Fortunately, Princess Yi is also considered capable, so she can maintain it.Princess Yi actually didn't do anything on Liu Hanxi's side, but she still gave her a share of dividends, which made Princess Yi very moved.

Then, she went to Prince Yan's mansion again, but she didn't send money, but silk, winter clothes, jewelry, ginseng and so on.It was exactly what Bai Yuying needed.King Yan had spent a lot of time in the army before, he was upright and frugal, and he was not a gentle person, he was even more straightforward than Hua Qingkong.Although he handled the property very well, he seldom cared about the feelings of the female family members, and Bai Yuying was so gentle that he dared not mention it even if he was affected by it.

"Princess Xuan, you gave me so many clothes and accessories, I'm afraid I won't be able to wear them all in New Year's Eve." Although Bai Yuying said it, she could see that she liked it very much, there is no woman who doesn't like these.

"It's not that you don't know the places of these stores of mine. I have never seen you go to pick up something, so I had to deliver it myself." Liu Hanxi took a sip of tea and felt that it was not very good, and then looked at the scene in the palace. Let's say it's really vegetarian.Not even a big family.It seems that this King Yan really did what the world said, "Is it because King Yan doesn't like you to dress too brightly?"

Bai Yuying shook her head: "I don't know the prince's preferences, nor have I heard the prince talk about which clothes he likes to see..."

"Your prince only sees those state affairs," Liu Hanxi shook his head and sighed, h "a straight man like him, you wear white, red, and purple, and he sees the same color in his eyes, no matter what he does Just wear what you like! I can see through this apricot color very well, you are so thin, you don’t have to worry about looking fat in light colors.”

Bai Yuying panicked when she heard her talking about the prince so freely, but felt that what she said was very reasonable.

"Then...then Prince Su..."

"Don't care what those men do! I just wear what I want to wear, but I will also ask! Hua Qingkong! How do I look like? Do I look fat? I often ask, and he will gradually pay attention." Liu Han Xi smiled.

"You talk to the prince like that? Call him by the name of the prince?" Bai Yuying was very surprised.

"I'm barking! Sometimes I'm called Wangye, sometimes I'm called Qingkong, sometimes I'm called Hua Tianshi, and when I'm angry, I'm called Huaqingkong!" Liu Hanxi demonstrated it with different volumes, causing Bai Yuying to cover her head Wearing a handkerchief and smiling.

Liu Hanxi bid farewell, and she went to Prince Heng's mansion again.She couldn't bear to tease Princess Heng last time, so she sent a small box of gold and other gifts.

Bai Yuying really changed into the apricot color that Liu Hanxi chose. The creamy white dress and the apricot jacket are embroidered with gold thread. They look cute and elegant. It looks plump.She was looking up and down in the mirror, when she saw a servant calling, "My lord is back."

So he went to greet him in a hurry.

In the thin snow, Yan Wang Chu Munan saw Bai Yuying blooming in the snow like a fresh flower, and his heart moved.Going forward, Ke Rener greeted her with a warm smile.

"My lord, you are back."

"Ying'er, you look... different today." Chu Munan couldn't help but praise.

"Uh, this is a New Year's gift from Princess Jin, some winter dresses..." Bai Yuying replied.

"Oh, it's very suitable for Ying'er, Princess Tan has a heart." Chu Munan dragged her hand and walked into the room.

"My lord, we also want to return some gifts..."

"Of course I want it. You have to go to the library to have a look, and pick some to send over. If there are no suitable ones, go and buy some good ones." Chu Munan's voice softened.

"Yes, my lord." Bai Yuying replied with a smile.

"She went to a lot of places today, and she is helping the king of Jin to lay the foundation of her network!" Chu Munan took the tea from Bai Yuying.

When Bai Yuying heard this, she forcibly swallowed the next words into her stomach. She originally wanted to muster up the courage to ask if she could also be called the prince in private.

"I asked someone to inquire about it, and she was clever, and the things she sent were all according to her liking, and she would send what was lacking to the house. Although Shi Qi was not good at politics, having her would save a lot of trouble. And look at her performance in front of her father and empress, she is really superior!" Chu Munan continued.

Bai Yuying felt that Liu Hanxi was very sincere, and that's not what she meant by sending clothes, so she said, "I think Princess Jin is very sincere and lovely!"

"Ying'er, you are too simple. Last time she raised money, she also stole the limelight. Firstly, it made me owe her a favor, secondly, it proved the strength of Prince Jing's Mansion to everyone, and thirdly, it made people swing Uncertain people made a choice as soon as possible, and won the hearts of the people. Do you think it is a simple matter?"

"No way... Maybe she really wants to help? She sacrificed her life to lure the Chinese snake into the sea before. Everyone saw this with their own eyes!" Bai Yuying was puzzled. Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, she heard Princess Yi mention However, when Princess Yi saw the scar on her left arm in the street, she was shocked.

"That's scary! It means that she risked her life to help King Xuan! Ying'er is a princess of a country, and she must have seen a lot of these power manipulation techniques! Could it be unexpected?" Chu Munan shook his head.

Bai Yuying's heart tightened, her eyes were a little lonely, and she felt sad in her heart, she barely shed tears.

She replied: "Yuying is useless. Although I am a princess of a country, I can only read and write. I have no tricks and tactics. I can't help the prince. I disappointed the prince. The prince originally wanted to marry a princess. It must be more useful."

She silently walked behind the screen in the inner room, took off the apricot-colored jacket, and put on her original cherry-white padded jacket on the hanger.

When Chu Munan heard her say this, he realized that what he just said was too much.

"Ying'er, I didn't mean that, I didn't mean you are useless," Chu Munan looked at her with tears on her face, "That one is so beautiful, why did you change it?"

Bai Yuying smiled with tears in her eyes: "My lord, my West Yu Kingdom has had several dynasties in a hundred years, and I have been in two dynasties since I was born. I am not ignorant of the art of manipulating power."

"Ying'er, don't be annoyed, this is my business, and it shouldn't be on your shoulders." It was the first time Chu Munan saw her face and tone like this.

Bai Yuying shook her head: "I'm being disrespectful today, so let me finish my sentence. The reason why I agreed to marry the prince, who is thousands of miles away, is because I like the prince, not what the prince will be in the future... ...But if the prince married me just because I was a usable chess piece, then I would be that chess piece. That would be, just that chess piece."
