Chapter 5 If You Catch a Cold

Although Chu Yu was extremely reluctant, she finally agreed to let Ye Jinshu get her a bucket of slop.

What can he do if he doesn't agree? He has already sworn an oath. If he can't do it, he will have to drink slop.

In the past, when Chu Yu left Anping Palace, he would smile brightly because he had fun. But this time, when he left Ye Jinshu, the happy Second Prince lost his smile.

All the palace people who saw Chu Yu's expression that day said that there was an unpleasantness between the princess and the second prince.

This incident quickly caused a stir in the gossip circles among the palace people.

After all, people who work in the palace can lose their heads at any time, and their only hobby is eating melons.

The biggest melon is that the Ye family has two daughters, one legitimate and one illegitimate, who are raised in the palace.

In the past, almost everyone knew that the second prince stood on the side of the princess, and except for the second prince, the other princes didn’t like the princess very much. They all preferred the concubine of the Ye family.

He even hated Ye Jinshu because of that concubine.

If Ye Jinshu had not been favored by the emperor and empress, he would have died countless times.

Someone proposed a theory a long time ago. Since almost all the princes dislike Ye Jinshu, how long can the second prince hold on?

Now it seems that the friendly relationship between the Second Prince and the Princess has come to an end.

Alas, the princess is so pitiful.

In order to get the position of Crown Princess, she really had nothing left.

Ye Jinshu didn't care what people in the palace were thinking of her. No matter what those people thought, it would not change her ending at all.

Always.

outside the palace.

Ye Ruoyan and Chu Yi walked side by side on the streets of the imperial city.

Ye Ruoyan was wearing a playful goose yellow Confucian skirt. Although the style was simple, the materials, embroidery and tailoring were all very sophisticated, showing off the girl's cuteness to the fullest.

She has a pair of watery almond-shaped eyes, and everything she looks at is full of curiosity, especially when she smiles, one just wants people to give her everything this girl likes.

Chu Yi watched Ye Ruoyan skipping into an herbal medicine shop and asking for the herbs she wanted. She looked so playful, just like when he first saw Ye Ruoyan.

In the past, Chu Yi enjoyed spending time alone with Ye Ruoyan like this, but maybe it was because of the reason for leaving the palace this time, Chu Yi's heart was not the same as before when he looked at Ye Ruoyan who was smiling happily. Instead, he couldn't help but think about what Ye Jinshu was doing now.

Still tinkering with her land?

A princess living in the deep palace, somehow she became obsessed with farming and completely forgot the teachings of the palace maids.

She was so bold that she even asked me to bring her fertilizer from outside the palace.

But what surprised Chu Yi himself was that he didn't hate Ye Jinshu like this.

He was even looking forward to seeing what kind of expression Ye Jinshu would have when he brought back what Ye Jinshu wanted.

Can you laugh?
Chu Yi only discovered today that Ye Jinshu looked very pretty when she smiled, with the corners of her eyes slightly raised and even a dimple on her face, which made people want to poke it.

Very sincere and touching.

If she were not constrained by her identity as the Crown Princess, perhaps Jinshu could have lived more freely like Ruoyan.

Ye Ruoyan was counting the medicines that the store had packed for her. When she turned around, she found Chu Yi standing alone not far away with a smile on his face. She stopped running towards Chu Yi.

It was not unusual for Chu Yi to laugh, but what alerted Ye Ruoyan was that this time when Chu Yi laughed, his eyes did not look at her.

In other words, Chu Yi smiled just now because of someone else.

He was clearly shopping with her, but he was standing outside the pharmacy and smiling at others. This was the first time Ye Ruoyan saw Chu Yi like this since she came to this world.

Chu Yi was distracted for a moment and noticed Ye Ruoyan's gaze and looked over. Ye Ruoyan instantly adjusted her mood and continued to run towards Chu Yi with a bright and flawless smile.

She asked casually, "I have already bought the medicine, where should we go next?

Chu Yi listened to Ye Ruoyan talking about "we" naturally, and did not correct her. Ye Ruoyan suffered too much in the palace, so he would give Ye Ruoyan the greatest freedom when she was outside the palace.

"Next, go buy something for your sister."

Hearing this, Ye Ruoyan lowered her eyes to hide the emotions that surged within her. After a moment, she raised her eyes again and continued to look innocent: "Do you want to bring some fun things from outside the palace for my sister? Can I choose them?"

Ye Ruoyan acted coquettishly while leading the situation in a direction that was favorable to her.

As long as she could choose a gift for Ye Jinshu, she could guarantee that Ye Jinshu would not be able to control his anger when he saw her gift.

Every time Ye Jinshu gets angry, Chu Yi will side with her more, and Ye Jinshu will become more isolated and helpless in the palace.

If she wants to climb up and live a better life, Ye Jinshu has to be her stepping stone. This is what the Ye family owes "Ye Ruoyan".

Just as Ye Ruoyan thought, Chu Yi did not reject her, but said softly: "She has something she wants. If you have something you want to give her, you can buy it as well."

"There are so many exquisite items in the palace that I decided not to bring anything from outside the palace to show off. But my sister couldn't sleep well at night a few days ago, so I sewed a sachet for her to calm her down. Can I ask my brother to pass it to her for me, so that she can be happy."

Hearing this, Chu Yi recalled Ye Jinshu's usual attitude towards Ye Ruoyan and sighed.

Ye Ruoyan treats Ye Jinshu as her sister, but Ye Jinshu always has some hostility towards Ye Ruoyan. As the prince, he actually knows the source of this hostility.

He also thought about indulging Ye Jinshu, but as the Crown Princess and the future mother of a country, the most important thing for her was to be tolerant.

When Ye Ruoyan saw the look in Chu Yi's eyes, she knew that Chu Yi had understood what she wanted to say.

Between the arrogant and domineering elder sister and the aggrieved and sensible younger sister, the latter will get love.

Sister, don't let me down. Please be angry after you get my sachet.

Ye Jinshu, who had just finished hoing the land in the palace and was reviewing physical fitness techniques, suddenly sneezed.

Seeing this, Xiao Cui who was standing next to him immediately came over with her robe and tried to put it on Ye Jinshu. However, Ye Jinshu refused Xiao Cui's robe and invited her to run in circles with him.

Xiao Cui:?
"Tsui'er, we cannot wear luxurious robes. Wearing them will corrupt our love for farming and block the sound of the soil."

"But my lady, if you catch a cold."

"Cui'er, let me ask you, what will happen if you catch a cold?"

"Yes. Ah! The princess is wise!" Xiao Cui understood that the princess wanted to use her body to win back the prince's heart.

Princess, you are so stupid.
"That's right! When you catch a cold, a doctor will come! Among the doctors who came today, there is one who is proficient in farming. I must find him and ask for his advice!"

Xiao Cui:?
