Chapter 326 - 326: A Very Good Person
Princess Anning nodded. “I also feel that brother Zhiyan is a very good person.
My father and mother said that he is very reliable and much more reliable than my brother. He is also a smart person.”
‘Qingqing, you don’t know. Although Brother Zhiyan looks cold, he wasn’t like this in the past. He was miserable in the past. It is said that I didn’t make a sound at that time. Many of them were obtained by eavesdropping on the palace servants’s discussions.”
“Cousin Zhiyan was the son of my Aunt Yanhe, the Princess. However, she and my father weren’t from the same mother, and their relationship wasn’t very close.”
“Aunt’s Yanhe’s -in-law was also a general. However, he died on the battlefield. After the death of the son-in-law, Aunt Yanhe raised a lot of masked men in the Princess Residence and fooled around with them every day. At that time, Cousin Zhiyan was only a few years old Aunt Yanhe brought him to play with the masked men. Aunt Yanhe aunt drank too much, and under the heckling of one of the masked men, they forced Cousin Zhiyan to drink a lot of wine. At that time, Cousin almost vomited blood. It was said that the imperial physician saved him for a long time, and Cousin Zhiyan almost lost his life. Fortunately, cousin was stronger, and he eventually recovered.”
“At that time, my father was very angry. Not only did he order the beheading of Yanhe’s masked men, but he also brought Cousin Zhiyan to live in the palace.”
“However, it was said that before Yanhe’s son-in-law died, Brother Zhiyan was a child who loved to laugh. From then on, he never laughed. He was cold all day long.”
“However, he was still a very good person. When I was young, he did not reject me even when I talked to him. I did not want to do my homework and even begged him to help me write a few times! Even after he moved out of the palace when he was fifteen, I rarely saw him.”
“I feel like he has changed a lot since he came back this time! He’s not as cold as before!”
Jian Qingqing silently listened to these imperial secrets. She did not expect that Ming Zhiyan’s life would be so rough when he was young. He was brought by his biological mother to play, and she was even drunk, for a child who was only a few years old, no matter how she thought about it, it felt cruel.
The two of them walked and chatted along the way. Before they knew it, they had arrived at Princess Anning’s palace. Jian Qingqing had also heard many secrets of the royal family along the way. Many of these things were overheard by Princess Anning, perhaps it was the first time she had met someone she could confide in, so she told Jian Qingqing all of them.
Jian Qingqing had never made any comments. This kind of thing was only hearsay, and no one knew if it was true or not. Even if it was true, it was not her place to comment. It was fine as long as she forgot about it after listening to it.
Looking at the sky, the sun was about to set. Jian Qingqing said, “Anning, I’ll go back first. Goodbye.”
Princess Anning was a little reluctant. “Aren’t you going to stay for dinner?
Jian Qingqing shook her head. “No, my family is still waiting for me. I’ll bring you something fun next time.”
She had wanted to say bring food, but thinking that the palace did not allow them to bring food from outside, she decided to let it go.
No matter how reluctant Princess Anning was, she could only give up. She said reluctantly, “Then you have to come in quickly! I will miss you very much!”
It had been so many years since a teenage girl had gone out. Although the imperial palace was big, it was not free. Jian Qingqing could not help but feel sorry for this little girl. She comforted her, “I will come in when I am free! It might be a few days later.”
Princess Anning immediately turned her worry into a smile. “Okay! Remember
After parting with Princess Anning, Jian Qingqing went home in a carriage. When she reached home, her family had not eaten yet and were waiting for her..
