Chapter 315 Performing Personality
The mother and daughter were still thinking about how to send Xiaoyanzi away when they heard a servant come to report that Princess Jingyan and the Crown Prince's wife had arrived.
Guan Baofu's face beamed with joy. "Please come in! Xinrong, the princess is worried that you might be feeling unwell, so she came to comfort you, right?"
Xinrong nodded, stood up and went out to greet him.
Originally, Jingyan and Qing'er were going to wait for Xinrong to return to the Fifth Prince's residence before visiting him.
However, Meiruo felt that Xinrong had returned to her parents' home immediately after such a big incident, and she might have been wronged, so she rushed the two of them to the Censorate.
However, the moment they saw Xinrong, both of them felt relieved.
Looking at Xinrong's smiling face, no one would feel that she has suffered any injustice.
The elders love to daydream.
"Jingyan, Xinrong, you are here."
The two of them smiled and greeted Fu Jin, then said, "We heard that you came home, so we came to see you."
Fu Jin knew that the young people were chatting in private, so she deliberately left time for the three girls.
After Guan Baofu left, Xinrong smiled and said, "Let me guess, you must have heard about Xiaoyanzi's situation in the palace, so you came all the way here to comfort me?"
Jingyan smiled and nodded, "Yes and no, I came to see you for real, but I was mainly worried that there might be something hidden that might have wronged you."
Xinrong shook his head, "I can't stand any grievances, but this time it's Xiaoyanzi who is wronged."
That's natural, otherwise why would Xiaoyanzi leave when she was living so well there? Of course she couldn't stay anymore.
"Did the Fifth Prince wrong her?"
"I guess so." Xinrong pondered for a moment, "I don't think the Fifth Prince cares about Xiaoyanzi as much as the rumors say."
Qing'er couldn't believe it. "Fifth Prince was so angry that Concubine Yu hanged herself for her, and even took forty more lashes for her. If that's not enough for him."
"No, no, no," Xinrong explained, waving her hands. "It's true that the Fifth Prince did all of this for Xiaoyanzi, but, oh, how should I put it? Do you believe me if I say it was just my intuition?"
Qing'er was skeptical, but Jingyan nodded: "You live under the same roof every day, so you've naturally seen more than us. Did something happen to cause discord between the two of you?"
"Well, I'm telling you the truth. The Fifth Prince and I consummated our marriage, and Xiaoyanzi happened to run into us. That's why today's farce happened. Besides, the Fifth Prince and Xiaoyanzi haven't had any communication since he was beaten with a stick last time, except for the fight over Cailian."
Xinrong's words shocked Jingyan and Qing'er.
The two were stunned for a moment, looking at each other, not knowing how to respond.
Xinrong really doesn't treat them as outsiders and tells them everything he wants.
Jing Yan coughed dryly, "Um, you mean they haven't spoken to each other for a long time? Isn't Xiaoyanzi grounded to learn the rules? Doesn't the Fifth Prince go to see her?"
This isn't a matter of being regulated in the palace. In the Fifth Prince's residence, whatever the Fifth Prince says goes.
"That's why I said it was very wrong. If it were you, could you resist not seeing me?"
Jingyan waved her hands, blushing a little, but she really couldn't help it. If it were her, she would have wanted to climb over the wall every day.
Qing'er whispered, "Little Swallow ran away, and the Fifth Prince went crazy again, wanting to turn the Forbidden City upside down. What's going on?"
Xinrong shrugged. "That's what I mean by weird. Don't you think he's doing this for show?"
Jingyan frowned, "No way, is he a histrionic personality?"
"What kind?"
"No, what I mean is, doing this will only bring him harm and no benefit. Why do it in front of others? Is it a good thing to let others think that he is a madman who would give up his life for love?"
That made sense. Xinrong nodded, but he couldn't understand what the Fifth Prince was doing.
She breathed a sigh of relief. "This is what worries me. As soon as Xiaoyanzi left, her uncle and aunt came looking for her. Do you think it would be better if we let them take Xiaoyanzi away?"
"Uncle and aunt?"
"Well, he said that he learned about Xiao Yanzi's existence after hearing the news that Xiao Daxia had overturned the case, so he came to find her."
After hearing Xinrong's words, Jingyan fell into deep thought. From Xinrong's perspective, Xiaoyanzi's departure would indeed save her a lot of trouble.
But this still depends on the choice of Xiaoyanzi and the Fifth Prince.
Could it be that the plot will go around in circles and end with the two of them going to Dali together, and Xinrong raising Mian Yi alone?
Thinking of this, Jingyan glanced at Xinrong's belly cautiously. Maybe Xinrong was already pregnant with Mian Yi.
"What are you thinking about?" Xinrong waved his hand in front of Jingyan.
"What will you do if Fifth Prince insists on leaving with Xiaoyanzi?"
Looking at Jingyan's frowning face, Xinrong burst out laughing, "I couldn't ask for more."
"what?"
It’s different. Xinrong is different from the one in the drama!
Xinrong smiled and nodded: "To be honest, he and I don't have any feelings for each other."
"Do you really think so?" Qing'er was a little surprised.
Xinrong nodded, "Really, but the prerequisite is that I have a child."
Well, what should not change has not changed.
"Of course this is the best, but I don't think the Fifth Prince will leave." Xinrong said firmly. No one would give up his good position as a prince and run away to be an ordinary citizen.
Jingyan and Qing'er didn't dare to jump to conclusions. What if the couple reconciled and came back happily and no one would leave?
"By the way, I have something else to ask you."
"what is the matter?"
"Do you remember where Cai Lian was brought by the Fifth Prince?"
Well, Jingyan really couldn't remember it clearly, and Qing'er also frowned, looking like she couldn't remember it.
"I just remember it was at a market in a small village near Qijiang Town."
"About how far is it?"
"It's a day's journey. We stopped at a post station to rest."
Xinrong nodded, with an idea in mind.
"Why do you suddenly want to ask this? Is there something wrong with Cai Lian?" Jing Yan was very curious.
Although Cai Lian had done nothing since being taken back by the Fifth Prince, and had been quiet as if she didn't exist, she had quietly become the Fifth Prince's concubine a while ago. It was unlikely that she was just an ordinary girl.
Xinrong shook her head gently, "No, I just thought that this was someone the Fifth Prince brought back. Now that she's become a concubine, it's better to know her background."
There is nothing wrong with thinking this way, so Jingyan didn't ask any further questions.
After all, even if there is any problem, the problem now is in the Fifth Prince's backyard.
Coming out of the Censorate.
Jingyan looked at Qing'er and said, "You can tell the old lady that she can rest assured. Xinrong has not suffered any injustice and is living a very comfortable life."
"Yeah, I hope it doesn't backfire."
