Chapter 266: Harmony on the surface, competition in secret
The more Xiao Yan'an thought about it, the angrier he became. He simply opened his red coat to reveal the golden soft armor underneath.
Dong Ling opened her eyes wide. It was the first time she saw such a thing.
There was also a flash of shock in Ji Chuhe's eyes.
Gold silk soft armor!
Xiao Yan'an simply tore off his coat and threw it on the ground, then stood in front of the three people wearing the soft armor and turned around in front of them to prove his innocence.
Ji Chuhe looked away.
This scene is a bit eye-irritating.
"See? It's locked! I can't open it without the key. I can't take off this golden armor. What can she do to me?"
Dong Ling couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Xu Yan'er threw herself into the prince's arms excitedly, "Prince, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have distrusted you. I knew you wouldn't let Liao Yunfei succeed."
Xiao Yan'an's gaze fell on Ji Chuhe and found that there was also a faint smile in Ji Chuhe's eyes.
This time, he didn't disappoint her, did he?
"Prince, we won't be able to move for a few days, so let Liao Yunfei live in the temporary palace first, and then we can bring her back home after we move." Ji Chuhe spoke slowly.
"All matters concerning the harem shall be subject to Madam's arrangements."
"Mrs. Xu, please go back with the prince and change your clothes and wash up." Ji Chuhe ordered.
"Yes, ma'am." Xu Yan'er immediately knelt down in response.
Xiao Yan'an had already reported the situation to Ji Chuhe and felt relieved.
I was indeed feeling unwell, so I said goodbye and left.
……
In the morning, Liao Yunfei was dragged out of the door holding Xiao Yanan's legs, and she was unable to keep Xiao Yanan, and the people in the palace laughed at her in vain.
After Xiao Yan'an left, she hurried to ask the nanny on duty.
"I can't live in the palace forever, right? What should I do?"
"Madam, you should go find the prince. Wherever the prince is, you should go there." The nanny replied.
Of course Liao Yunfei wanted to follow Xiao Yanan.
However, Xiao Yan'an refused.
Xiao Yan'an must be in the Duke's Mansion.
If she goes to the Duke's Mansion, I'm afraid she won't even be able to get through the door?
No! She is already Xiao Yanan's concubine, legitimately!
She would follow Xiao Yanan's side, wherever he was, she would be there!
Liao Yunfei quickly packed up and left the palace.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked out of the palace gate, I saw four figures squatting on the roadside not far away.
They are Feng, Liao Dabao, Liao Erbao, and Liao's father.
A neat and tidy family of four.
When Liao Yunfei saw that they were blocking her path, she was in a dilemma.
Suddenly, Liao Dabao pointed in a direction, "Mother, sister!"
"Where?" Feng stood up excitedly.
Liao Yunfei turned around and ran without any hesitation.
"Liao Yunfei! Stop right there!" Feng immediately chased after him.
When he chased to the palace gate, he was stopped by the guards on duty.
"How dare you! Trespassing into the palace is a capital offense!"
Feng was so scared that she took a step back, "General, you misunderstood, the one who just went in was my daughter." She quickly pointed in the direction where Liao Yunfei disappeared.
"No one is allowed to enter without a pass!"
Feng suppressed her anger and walked out with a smile.
Liao Yunfei, that little bitch, don’t even think about getting rid of them!
Either she gives them money regularly and ensures they have enough food and clothes, otherwise, they will follow her closely!
Liao Yunfei hid in the dark and watched for a long time. The four people from the Feng family had no intention of leaving.
After dark, she went to take another sneak peek.
Those four are still here!
"How cruel!" Liao Yunfei cursed inwardly.
……
With the move approaching, Ji Chuhe, as the wife of the Crown Prince and the mistress of the household, is very busy.
Xiao Yan'an looked at Ji Chuhe, who had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, and walked over with a pot of tea.
"Ma'am, please stop and rest for a while and have some tea."
"Prince, we don't have enough manpower. We have already mobilized all the people we can from the Duke's Mansion, but we are still too busy. I have to go through all the accounts myself." Ji Chuhe took the tea poured by Xiao Yan'an and drank it in one gulp.
"Look, the four aunts are all here to help, especially the eldest aunt, who just got better and came over too."
Xiao Yan'an looked in the direction Ji Chuhe pointed.
Indeed, there were too many things added to the mansion, and Ji Chuhe alone could not handle it.
"Is there anything I can do to help?" Xiao Yan'an asked proactively.
Ji Chuhe thought for a moment and asked, "Is my uncle free?"
"He'er, are you looking for me?" A voice suddenly sounded.
I saw the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion directing people to move a pot of precious flowers and plants.
Ji Chuhe immediately walked towards the direction of the eldest son, "Uncle, I want you to take the prince to visit several major families and personally hand out the invitations to the housewarming party."
"I'm going to arrange this tomorrow. Well, it's the same if I go today. It is very necessary for the prince to go through the formalities."
"Thank you, uncle."
"That's what I said."
Xiao Yan'an received the assignment and left the Prince's Mansion in high spirits.
……
The arrangement of the courtyard of the Prince's Mansion is entirely decided by Ji Chuhe.
Of course she still lived in the main courtyard.
The prince lived in Qinchun Palace, the largest of several independent courtyards in the mansion.
Xu Yan'er is still the closest to Xiao Yan'an and lives in Haitang Pavilion.
Dong Ling lived in Tingyuxuan, the closest place to Ji Chuhe. She chose it herself, and although it was the smallest one, she felt it was enough.
Ji Chuhe originally wanted to arrange a bigger and more comfortable place for her, considering that she would have another child after giving birth, but Dong Ling was unwilling to do so.
Liao Yunfei also has an independent courtyard.
After all, she is a concubine, and her status is higher than Dong Ling and Xu Yan'er. Dong Ling and Xu Yan'er both have independent courtyards, so it is impossible not to give Liao Yunfei one.
Ji Chuhe would never let anyone find fault with her in this regard.
Suddenly, Mianzhu came over quickly, "Madam, something bad has happened, Liao Yunfei is here!"
"Isn't she trapped in the palace?" Ji Chuhe knew that people from the Liao family were guarding outside the palace, and thought that Liao Yunfei didn't dare to come out, so she was entangled.
"She seems to have gotten rid of him." Mian Zhu had just finished speaking when he saw Liao Yunfei walking in.
Liao Yunfei walked straight towards Ji Chuhe with a smile on her face, "Meet the Madam."
"Madam, there's no need to be so polite." Ji Chuhe raised her hand.
"Madam, we are moving to a new house. Is there anything I can help with?" Liao Yunfei acted as if she didn't consider herself an outsider.
"The new concubine has just arrived at the same time as our move. I had originally planned to wait until she was settled before bringing her in."
"Madam, you are very thoughtful. However, since I am the concubine of the prince, I am qualified to help you take care of the affairs of the mansion. How can I be lazy at this time?"
Ji Chuhe immediately took out a booklet from his hand and handed it to Liao Yunfei.
"Madam, you will be the one to count the items recorded in this book."
"Yes, ma'am." Liao Yunfei took it.
When the people around saw this scene, they couldn't believe their eyes.
Why is it so harmonious?
