Chapter 1025: Tear Down the Cover-Up!

ne and their friends have a good sleep, tomorrow we'll study this thoroughly again. We'll take turns keeping watch from now on. 。" Okay, village head. " 。Everyone responded with a loud roar, hurrie...Everyone quickly bowed their heads in greeting. Even the Noble Consort stood up and smiled, “Didn’t someone say earlier that you wouldn’t come How is it that the Third Princess has free time now Please take a seat!”

Having said that, she instructed the palace maids to arrange two seats beside her and added, "In my opinion, the princess is young and should be allowed to go out and play more."

The third princess nodded casually and sat down, not even bothering to respond to the noble consort's words.

She's not a child anymore, you can't just coax her with a few kind words.

Moreover, that night she heard clearly, the emperor's poisoning was definitely orchestrated by the Consort.

Who could have any affection for a person who murdered their father

The noble consort was quite embarrassed, especially in front of everyone. This put her face in a very difficult position.

She was furious inside, clenching the handkerchief tightly in her hand, but she held it back.

But when she bent down to sit, she caught sight of the crimson nine-phoenix crown atop the Third Princess's head and almost ruined her cover...

This little wretch, she definitely did it on purpose!

Intentionally trying to ruin her reputation!

Jia Yin followed the princess, smiling without speaking. She only curtsied to the Noble Consort before sitting down.

Everyone below is shrewd, after all, fools wouldn't be allowed into the palace by their families.

The Lady Consort's embarrassment and the Princess' pride were all plain for them to see.

Some people thought the opportunity had come and wanted to show off in front of the Noble Consort, but thinking about the Third Princess's favor and her rather harsh and domineering temper, they were a little intimidated.

Then someone changed their mind and, with a smile, said, “Princess, before your arrival, we were just discussing performing for the esteemed Noble Consort. If you wouldn’t mind, we would be honored if you joined us in the appreciation.”

The Third Princess raised an eyebrow, idly twirling the enamel and gemstone nail guards on her left hand, and replied nonchalantly, “Is that so You all brought your daughters to the palace today, aren’t you hoping to catch the eye of the Second Prince”

"Nowadays, even being a wife or concubine isn't easy, is it One must be virtuous and well-behaved, and also be proficient in chess, calligraphy, and painting"

Everyone blushed and lowered their heads, not knowing how to respond.

Although they entered the palace for this reason, being suddenly exposed was quite embarrassing.

After all, no one likes their daughter to be like a cabbage, available for anyone to choose.

To everyone's surprise, the third princess didn't shy away from it at all. She bluntly pierced through the veil they had painstakingly tried to maintain.

Jia Yin didn't want the Third Princess to offend everyone. She smiled and said, "As the older sister, the princess naturally hopes that the Second Prince will have a good marriage. Coincidentally, she happened to be here today, so the princess can take a look and help Empress Dowager consult."

The Third Princess let out a cold snort. Although she was still reluctant, she had to say, "Alright, then I'll see what these noble ladies of the new capital are capable of!"

The Noble Consort didn't want today's banquet to be disrupted, so she quickly waved her hand to signal the chief palace maidservant to begin.

The first to perform was Miss Lu.

Two eunuchs helped set up an ancient zither. Miss Lu sat behind it and started to play, looking quite skilled. It was evident that she had practiced diligently.

Everyone was in a garden filled with flowers, the gentle breeze caressing their faces, accompanied by pleasant music. For a moment, they were all absorbed in it, relaxing their brows and letting go of many distracting thoughts.

Once the piece was finished, everyone showered it with praise. Lu Gu, delighted, blushed crimson.

Even the Noble Consort bestowed upon her a pair of jade bangles.

Miss Lu knelt down to show her gratitude and happily went away.

The second girl to take the stage performed painting, and she chose the theme of "Flowers in Full Bloom".

No matter how good the brushwork is, everyone can't help but feel happy when they see a full page of flowers....

Jia Yin drank half a cup of tea and, looking at Bao Zhu sitting in the distance, her neck stretched like some kind of long-lived species, she couldn't help but laugh.

She then whispered to the third princess and, skirt in hand, slipped past the crowd at the back.

Baozhu rushed forward almost immediately, clinging tightly to Jiayin's arm, her eyes red and watery as she pitifully poured out her grievances.

"Oh, Sister Jiayin, I can't go on living like this. I was woken up before dawn and haven't even had a bite to eat! I couldn't sleep on the bus either! Now I'm both tired and hungry, oh woe is me, it's so pitiful."

Jia Yin couldn't help but chuckle, seeing Bao Zhu with two black circles under her eyes. Her heart ached for her again.

This little fatty is well-fed, sleeps well and eats well. Growing up to now, she has truly never tasted hardship.

She glanced around, making sure no one was paying attention to them. She then took a pack of jerky from her sleeve and slipped it into Baozhu's hand, instructing, "Eat this first to tide you over. In a while, I'll take you back to Zhilan Palace and get you something delicious."

“Woooo, Sister Jia Yin is the best!” Bao Zhu was so moved she almost cried.

Who can understand children Their stomachs growl like frogs, constantly "ribbiting," it's really terrible!

Lady Jia felt helpless towards her niece. She was afraid that the girl would embarrass herself in such a setting, after all, if she ate too much, she would have to go change clothes.

If a girl runs to the restroom too often, people will start making fun of her.

But the jerky was given by Jiayin, and her niece clearly found a support, her spine straightened. She couldn't stop it either...

Jia Yin wasn't particularly familiar with this Mrs. Jia, but their families were considered close acquaintances, so she should be polite.

So she sat beside Madam Jia and chatted about everyday matters. At last, she comforted her, "Madam Jia, you needn't worry. Baoyu is simple and honest, but very intelligent. And with me and the princess here, nothing will happen to her."

Moreover, the reason for today's banquet, Madam must be very clear. Since our family has no such intention, there is no need for Baozhu to strive in everything and have everything go her way.

The mistress understood, but her heart was filled with complex emotions.

Wealth and honor can cloud one's judgment.

If the Pearl could become the concubine of the second prince, when the second prince ascended the throne in the future, it would naturally be of immeasurable benefit to the Jia family.

But this was only the plan of their eldest room, the old master and mistress were reluctant for Baozhu to enter the palace, and the second room absolutely refused to agree.

So, even though she had reached the palace, her mind was still wavering.

Jia Yin saw a few hints of displeasure, but she took a look at Bao Zhu and thought about the warm and cheerful Mrs. Jia Er, so she patiently added a few more words.

"My Lady, I treat Baozhu like my own sister. Naturally, I would never harm her. Some matters are best left undecided until the very end. We should wait for all the dust to settle before making any arrangements."

Madam Jia laughed heartily and quickly replied, "Thank you for reminding me, Princess."

"My lady, you are too kind. In a while, I shall take Baizhu and leave early to visit the Zhilan Palace. You need not wait for me; please return home first. Before nightfall, I will have someone escort Baizhu back."

Jia Yin said this, naturally Mrs. Jia wouldn't refuse.

Jia Yin didn't speak anymore, she just sat with Bao Zhu, stealing snacks, watching programs, and whispering.

Baozhu was delighted and laughed gleefully.

The Third Princess sat at the top, boredly fiddling with her handkerchief and occasionally glaring at those two heartless maids.

They were having a blast, leaving her to sit on the cold bench!

Of course, everyone below was constantly paying attention to the expressions on those above.

Seeing the third princess's gaze, everyone quickly followed her eyes and spotted Jia Yin and Bao Zhu, the two onlookers...

Two updates today~!certain that he will accept it. I've already daydreamed about my promotion and riches. 。Those without a discount, were anxious and conflicted. Sometimes regretful, sometimes telling themselves to go w...
