Chapter 845 4 Princess
When Cheng Ruoxue finished tidying up and went to the garden, the banquet had already begun. Sheng Yunjiao and the Fourth Princess were playing cards, while Lu Yangyang was pulling the Ninth Princess aside to talk to her about pulse diagnosis. She didn't know what interesting things they were talking about, but the Ninth Princess covered her mouth and laughed exceptionally sweetly.
Wen Qingqing was hiding in front of a table in the corner, fiddling with something. She excitedly waved to Lu Yangyang, "Yangyang, Ayin, come here quickly, look what I found!"
Lu Yangyang pulled the Ninth Princess over there.
Cheng Ruoxue was somewhat dazed when she heard the name "Ayin".
She had always known that the Ninth Princess Zong Yuyin was her aunt's daughter and her own cousin.
She was a sweet and gentle girl who always looked timid, like a frightened little white rabbit hiding behind people. Even when she was full of curiosity, she would never stick out her little head to explore. She was used to keeping her eyes down, making it impossible for people to see her feelings.
"Ruoxue, where have you been slacking off? Why are you only arriving now?" The Fourth Princess called out to Cheng Ruoxue, interrupting her thoughts, as she drew her cards.
Cheng Ruoxue immediately greeted them with a big smile, "Seeing you all playing cards really made me feel a little dazed, like I was back in my youth when I was still a young lady in my maiden days. I was quite stunned."
Sheng Yunjiao quickly moved aside for her, "Sister Ruoxue, you've finally arrived! Please help me quickly, or I'm afraid the Fourth Princess will win all my dowry money."
"You little brat, you have a shop like Zhenyanfang, and you come here to complain about being poor!" the Fourth Princess said with a laugh.
Cheng Ruoxue sat down next to Sheng Yunjiao and naturally took the cards from her hand. "Yangyang's house is beautifully built. It makes people feel good. I was sitting by the lake thinking of taking a rest, but I ended up falling asleep. I made everyone wait for me."
"You haven't been out much since you got married. If you ask me, you should go out more often. My princess residence will be finished next month. You all know me, I love a good time. From now on, I'll send you all invitations, one by one. You can't refuse, or I'll have to come to your door!" The Fourth Princess threw out a card and said with a smile.
The Fourth Princess is already twenty years old this year. Because the previous princesses died young, she is effectively His Majesty's eldest daughter. Her mother, Consort Shu, only has her as a princess and has no involvement in court affairs. Therefore, His Majesty has always been lenient with this daughter, allowing Consort Shu to choose a husband for her. Furthermore, when the Fourth Princess turned eighteen, he bestowed upon her a princess's residence, modeled after the eldest princess's residence, and granted her a former prince's mansion to rebuild. This signifies that no matter who ascends the throne, the Fourth Princess will always be the eldest princess; it's just a matter of changing the plaque. The princess's residence has been under construction for almost two years and is now nearing completion. The Fourth Princess had long requested His Majesty's decree to move in as soon as the residence was finished, and His Majesty agreed.
The Fourth Princess inherited her mother Consort Shu's shrewdness and efficiency, which made her very popular in the capital. She had a good relationship with many of the most prominent noble ladies in the capital.
Cheng Ruoxue readily agreed, "Then I'll be troubling the princess quite a bit in the future."
"I'm really looking forward to it! I can't wait to get out of the palace and be free. Now that Yangyang is back, she just said she wanted to open a women's clinic. That's exactly what I wanted. My house is just across the street from hers, so I can visit her every day." The Fourth Princess said happily.
