"How could that happen?" Chu Junlan also smiled and said gently, "After all, I don't expect you to come and pay your respects."

Chu Mengying's face looked very ugly in an instant.

Zi Yuan and Zi Yan did not respond, but Tong Yu, Cuisong and others who served at the door covered their mouths and laughed secretly in order to please Chu Junlan.

Chu Mengying bit her lower lip and after a long time, she forced herself to smile: "The princess is really good at joking."

Chu Junlan also laughed: "Yes, I have always been good at joking. Didn't you know it long ago?"

"What the third sister said is that when we were at home, the only one among all the sisters was the best at joking," Chu Mengying smiled, her eyes full of nostalgia. "How happy was the life at home? Unexpectedly, the family had left and the people had also left. Now there are only a few of us brothers and sisters left in the capital."

Is this person who plays emotional cards with a shame? I wonder what he is thinking about again.

Chu Junlan smiled and said, "Aunt Chu is really good at joking. There are brothers and sisters, but you don't include you. Don't forget that when Wang was asked to beheaded, you had become a slave. If I hadn't used the money to redeem you, you still don't know which family you are a slave and what kind of person you are. I know in my heart, and how you entered the palace. Now that you are here to look for me, if you have anything to say, I might help you with it because we are old acquaintances."

"You!" Chu Mengying was blushed by Chu Junlan's straightforward snatch, and tears of grievance were circling in her eyes, "We are half-brothers after all..."

"Auntie Chu," Chu Junlan looked calm, "Don't forget, my father is the Prince of Mao Guo, do you want to question the emperor's arrangement?"

Chu Mengying was so choked that she almost couldn't breathe, and she passed away.

"Okay, okay, now the status is very different. You are the prince's concubine and I am the concubine. I shouldn't have been humiliated by him."

"It's good to know, Chu Mengying, I know the best who you are. If you are obedient, we will throw our hands away and live our own lives. If you are as despicable as before, frame them secretly, and pretend to be pitiful and good people on your face, I will not spare you. When you go back, tell Xiao Yunpeng, let him stop his thoughts, or... the 'wind and cold' that bothers him may be even more troubled."

Chu Mengying's heart skipped a beat and her face turned pale.

She never thought that she had come and before she could lay the groundwork, Chu Junlan seemed to know everything.

Looking at the servants and maids in the room, Chu Mengying glared at Chu Junlan for a while, and suddenly shed tears.

"I also know that you are the princess now, and I still think that we are sisters. Now it seems that I am too naive, but I am not worthy..." Then he turned around and ran out crying, as if he had suffered all his grievances.

Zi Yan spat at Chu Mengying's back: "I don't like this kind of person the most, who can I show you to you? If she hadn't always come to harm others with an incorrect mind, how could we suffer so much in the past?"

Tongyu, Cuisong and other new maids bowed their heads and said nothing. They didn't know what had happened before, but they knew that their task was to curry favor with whom they should listen to, so they all talked about Chu Mengying's fault.

At this time, Jing Yu said at the door: "Criminal Princess, Ming'er is here to kowtow to you."

Chu Junlan remembered the little girl Jing Yu said and said with a smile: "Let her come in."

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a pretty girl with a 18-year-old face came in. Judging from her dressing, she knew she was doing rough work.

There were not many people who were good to Xiao Xu in the past. Ming'er was loyal to a fool's master before, which showed that she was very good at heart.

"Ming'er, I still lack a second-class maid who handles chores in my room. Are you willing to come?"

Ming'er knelt down with a pounce and kowtowed, "Thank you for your promotion to the princess, I am willing."

Chu Junlan smiled and said, "Zi Yuan, Zi Yan, you take Ming'er and tell her what she needs to do on weekdays."

"Yes." Zi Yuan and Zi Yan smiled and pulled Ming'er up, holding hands and heading backwards.

Tongyu said hesitantly: "Go back to the princess, follow the rules of the mansion, there will be an extra second-class maid in your room now."

"It's not important. I don't need to pay Ming'er's monthly money, so I don't need to pay from the mansion. I think I want to raise one more person to serve me, and my mother-in-law probably won't care either."

Tongyu immediately lowered her head, said "Yes" and stepped back.

Chu Junlan was impatient to confront these people, so he sent them all down and said lightly: "Our yard is the same as the living yard, and there are guards living in the yard. Therefore, if you have nothing to do on weekdays, don't go out and wander around. If there is any problem, you will suffer the consequences."

"Yes." The maids saluted and agreed to retreat.

Chu Junlan returned to the bedroom and sent everyone down. She sat cross-legged beside the bed. After looking at Xiao Xu in a coma for a moment, she sat cross-legged and meditated.

When it was late at night, Chu Junlan opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, and he turned over and changed his posture for Xiao Xu, feeling more and more sleepless.

Whenever she is alone, Chu Junlan looks at Xiao Xu, and her fear will amplify. Although she has been telling people that Xiao Xu will definitely be cured and that she will find a way to cure him. Even if she doesn't do it, she will find a way to find Doctor Qi, but these futures are unknown. Chu Junlan is always worried. What should she do if Xiao Xu can't wake up?

As long as I think about it this way, Chu Junlan felt so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

Put on a jacket and push the door to the yard.

The door of the house made a slight creaking, which immediately attracted the attention of the guards. Huo Yeqing came out of the darkness and saw that it was Chu Junlan and saluted from afar.

Chu Junlan waved his hand at him, signaling him not to care, then jumped, pulled the roof with one hand and fell lightly on the roof.

There was snow on the roof near the edge. Chu Junlan's toe pointed to it, and the falling traces were like the footprints of some light-weight animals. She walked up to the highest point of the roof and sat down. Looking up, it was a dark and quiet night. Looking around, she looked around with snow-covered roofs and hidden lights, but most courtyards were dark.

Chu Junlan took a deep breath of the cold air and felt much more relaxed.

Just then, Chu Junlan's gaze fell in the distance, and saw a slightly obese figure walking alone towards a courtyard in the southeast direction.

Isn’t that Prince Gong?

Chu Junlan frowned and recalled carefully that Prince Gong should have gone to the ancestral hall.

It was late at night and Prince Gong went to the ancestral hall alone, and no matter how you looked, she felt strange.

Chu Junlan's body fell outside the wall and quietly dived towards the ancestral hall.

Huo Yeqing, Zhang Li and other guards heard the movement and knew it was Chu Junlan. They thought they were bored in the middle of the night and wanted to walk around, but they didn't care.
