Chapter 8: Not dying and dying is just right
Ye Jinshu excitedly handed the copper coins in his hand to Xiao Cui and asked her to help him put them away.
"Xiao Cui, put these copper coins in a separate box."
When she goes to farm in the future, she will see how much money she can save.
Xiao Cui carefully put away the copper coins, thinking of the beautiful box that the Second Prince had sent her some time ago. It seemed appropriate to use that to hold the copper coins. However, seeing that the Princess did not seem to like the Second Prince very much today, she carefully asked, "Princess, can I use the box that the Second Prince sent me some time ago?"
Ye Jinshu replied casually: "Use it. Anyway, that thing has no other use except to store things."
Xiao Cui understood.
Just because the princess dislikes the Second Prince doesn't mean she dislikes the things he gives her.
"Yes, slave, I'll do it now."
Ye Jinshu stretched and was very happy looking at the land he had cultivated and the fertilizer sent by the prince.
The future is bright.
I feel like I have the energy to continue studying the story of the rebirth of the legitimate daughter.
It was a not-so-thick storybook, but the blank parts beside it had been filled with many notes and writings. These were all things that Ye Jinshu had judged based on her own rebirth experience and that ordinary reborn people (referring to herself) could not do.
Ye Jinshu was already prepared. As soon as he met the author of the storybook, he would refute the contents of the storybook one by one according to the comments in the storybook.
The maid who was sent out before didn't know when she would be able to bring the author of the storybook back to the palace. She could hardly suppress the wild power in her body.
At night, when Xiao Cui was serving Ye Jinshu, she couldn't help but whisper in Ye Jinshu's ear: "Princess, how could that concubine be so kind as to prepare a gift for you? There must be something fishy about the sachet. She is always good at using medicine, and I don't know what is in it. Do you want me to take the sachet to the imperial physician to see what is inside?"
Ye Jinshu thought about it and did not deny that what Xiao Cui said made sense. She took the sachet to the imperial physician for examination and found that the filling inside it did more harm than good.
But, it's not necessary.
As we all know, the palace is a place where people are eaten.
If you get close to the pond in the palace, you will be pushed into the water or be accused of pushing others into the water. If you meet a pregnant concubine, she will have a miscarriage if you get close to her. If the imperial master says that the palace is not clean, he will definitely be able to find a witchcraft doll in the palace.
As for the imperial physicians, their entire clan would be executed or thrown into the grave with the deceased at any time.
It's not easy to survive in the palace.
If you can live, then die immediately.
If she really worried about everything, whether it was poisonous, dangerous, or whether she could eat it, she would be exhausted from living in fear all day long.
Her brain must be used to learn the swear words she will use with her sisters in the future, her limbs and torso must be tempered by farming, and her buttocks must be responsible for her eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
All in all, there was no room in her body left to worry about these things.
"No need to give it to the imperial physician." Ye Jinshu shook his head, his expression calm and his tone indifferent.
It won't take long for those who target her to realize that it's pointless to target her because she has no power to fight back!
Xiao Cui still felt uneasy, and called out again worriedly: "But the princess."
"Cui'er," Ye Jinshu interrupted what Xiao Cui was about to say, "Do you know how someone like me can live comfortably in this palace without being restricted?"
Xiao Cui did not doubt it and thought that the princess was testing her, so she started to think seriously about it.
After a while, she hesitated and said, "The princess has the protection of the emperor and empress, so she doesn't have to be restrained. It's just that the concubine covets the prince and makes the princess angry all day long. As long as the princess can enter the East Palace and deal with the annoying concubine, she will be comfortable."
"Nonsense." Ye Jinshu felt that these people had a huge misunderstanding about the position of Crown Princess, but she was like this before. Whenever she encountered something unsatisfactory, she would tell herself that as long as she could become Crown Princess, everything would be fine. In the end, she didn't become Crown Princess, and she no longer had the desire to become Crown Princess.
"Who says being a Crown Princess is comfortable? Being a Crown Princess means you have to manage the entire Eastern Palace. How tiring. Look at the Emperor's concubines. The one who has the most tiring life is the Empress. She has to manage the overall situation and the six palaces. But the favorite concubine can just play all day long."
"So, Cui'er, for me, there are only two sentences to consider."
"The first sentence, you won't die."
"The second sentence is, it's just right to die."
"As long as what happens is within the control of these two sentences, you don't have to worry about me. As for you, if you are wronged, remember to tell me. If you want to scold someone, just go ahead and scold them. Don't hold it in. I'll take care of everything."
Xiao Cui was confused by what Ye Jinshu said earlier. People are born to live and die. It's okay as long as they don't die. It's okay if they die too. Doesn't that mean we don't have to care about anything that happens?
But after hearing Ye Jinshu's last words telling her not to suffer any injustice, Xiao Cui's nose suddenly felt a little sour.
She knew that the princess had changed.
Everything changed after I came back from going out alone that day.
The palace gossips all said that the princess went out alone that day and encountered the prince and that damn concubine's daughter playing together. She was stimulated and became so crazy.
But in her opinion, the princess was not crazy at all, but was very clear-headed.
She secretly felt that such an insightful princess was better than the previous princess who only had eyes for the prince.
But no matter what the princess is like, she is still her princess and the one she must be loyal to.
"I understand. Thank you, Princess." Thank you, Princess, for your concern.
"Yes. If Xiaoqing hasn't come back tomorrow, you should go out of the palace to ask about the situation."
"Yes."
At the same time, several important figures opened the report handed over by the secret guards.
The content of the report can be summarized in one sentence: The prince saw Ye Ruoyan off outside Anping Palace. When the princess saw this, she was not angry but excitedly accepted a copper coin from many palace servants and said with a smile that she won.
After reading it, the emperor sighed: She was able to guess my son's thoughts. It seems that Jinshu has put in a lot of effort. I will find a reason to reward her some other day.
After seeing this, the Queen sighed: Although my son likes that concubine's daughter, it is still too rude for him to behave like this in front of Anping Palace. I have to ask the nanny to give him a scolding.
After reading it, the second prince sighed: Hahahahahahahahaha, Ye Jinshu, I think you are really crazy.
The fourth prince sighed after reading it: "Brother has put Ruoyan in danger again." Ye Jinshu was so vicious that she actually humiliated her own sister in this way.
The fifth prince sighed after reading it: Hmm? Ye Jinshu is... So the rumors these days are not rumors?
Ye Jinshu didn't know that his gambling made some people in the palace spend a night of fanciful thoughts.
But even if she knew, she wouldn't change anything.
He won’t die anyway.
不如早点睡觉。
We have to get up and farm tomorrow.
