Princess Jin raised her eyelids to size him up, then asked unhurriedly: ”Did you take a good look?”

”This official would never dare to coax Princess Hua-Yang.”

”Sigh, originally, when this wangfei heard that she had been to Third Sister-in-Law's flower garden and heard rumors of other people, saying that her family had painted many pictures of Third Sister-in-Law's garden, my curiosity towards her grew. I never thought that I would not have the chance to see her again this year.

”Princess is of noble character, I don't think that girl has such good fortune.”

The imperial physician simply replied in an unperturbed manner.

Princess Jin did not say anything more and ordered someone to prepare another set of gifts for Xie Li and him.

”Princess Consort, please be at ease. I think that wood girl was indeed ill in the first place. This servant found out that it was the 15th Heaven's Lamp that had been frightened to death that night, and only now did his illness improve.”

Princess Jin stared at her hand that was offering tea and was lost in thought. After a long while, she said faintly: ”It's still better to be young. Your hand is even more tender than spring onions and even smoother than white jade.”

”This servant originally came over from esteemed wangfei's house. I must stay by her side all this time.”

Princess Jin allowed her to kneel for a long time before she accepted the tea and drank it. She then raised her slender fingers and said, ”Stand up, it's too cold underground.”

Du Hu quickly thanked him and lowered her head to the side. She heard the soft voice of the Princess Jin, which was like the spring breeze, saying, ”The Left Patrol of the Salt Clan does not have any direct descendants young lady. This is not something that can be done by a concubine, only this direct niece of mine is said to be affected greatly by the Zuo Mansion.”

To reply Princess Hua-Yang, wood girl's mother is Old Madam Zuo's own daughter, Master Zuo's blood sister. I heard that when we were in the countryside, the two siblings were able to get along well, but Master Zuo sent people to find them, and raised them in front of the Old Madam for more than five years.

The cuckoo immediately told Princess Jin what she had heard.

After thinking for a while, he took a peek at Princess Jin's expression. Seeing that her face was calm, he could not see through her thoughts, and said: ”Servant looks, that wood girl is very intelligent, I heard that before the two siblings went back to Zuo Mansion, wood girl has been in charge of the house since the age of six, and has cleaned up all the servants in the house thoroughly.”

Her words finally aroused the interest of the Princess Jin. ”These are all in the open. Did you manage to find out how her family made a name for themselves?”

”Please forgive this humble servant's stupidity. I didn't manage to find out anything about this. I only heard that he made a fortune selling vegetables in the spring.”

How could he understand the economy of this world? He smiled and said: ”Looks like it was also because of her and her brother's diligence, but, you are right, that girl is also an exquisite person, only … ”Sigh!”

Although the cuckoo was a newly proposed maid, her mind was sharp. She thought for a bit before asking, ”Princess, could it be …?”

”Sigh, I don't know where my lord heard of this, but my third brother highly valued this wood girl, so he decided to accept her in. However, after hearing your words, I'm afraid that this young lady is also very ambitious.”

The Princess Jin's own backyard was filled with all kinds of beauties. When the Duke Jiao Jin heard about this, he told her to ask the Left Lady for a marriage.

Seeing that her own wife was unwilling, she continued, ”Today, when this servant looks at the situation, I'm afraid that wood girl is more favored than anyone else in the world. I heard that Left Lady always brought him around to train him, and also heard that the upbringing aunt beside her came from the palace.”

”Really?”

Princess Jin was shocked. Whenever a woman's husband wants to take a concubine, the wives would first have to weigh the weight of the concubine in their hands.

”In the past, I didn't see her bring along upbringing aunt to walk around. That child also watched as she grew up, and from the looks of it, she isn't simple.

Being able to walk out of the palace alive was not as simple as just having two tricks up her sleeve. Although Princess Jin was not afraid, his heart was still filled with many worries.

Although she could not guess Princess Jin's intentions, she knew that if she were to individually invite this family, the first thing would be to push Zuo Renyou onto the fire rack.

She used a small method to feign unconsciousness. When she heard the imperial physician and the doctor leave the room and heard Chunxi calling her softly, she quietly opened one eye while the other was still closed, ready to feign unconsciousness at any time.

The Old Madam Zuo walked to the side of her bed with a walking stick. Seeing that her complexion was better than before, she did not have a gloomy temperament like when she was at home, and laughed: ”Haha, look, my Little monkey is back. Thank you, Buddha, for your protection.

Left Lady and Yu Xiuzhu also came over to see her, and laughed: ”Sang girl, do you have anything to eat? It's hard for you to think of such a method.

Mu Rousang saw that there were only a few of her own family members in the room, and impolitely said: ”I saw that the lady called Du Hu had bad intentions, and also heard from my grandmother that my body was not suitable, so I decided to pretend to be sick and took this opportunity to not make things difficult for aunt.”

”Aunt, this time, I really want to thank you well. To think that you would be so clever as to fall flat on your face with just a glance.”
