Chapter 302 Selecting a Prince Consort
She immediately stopped Xu Ruohao and asked, "Wait, where are you going?"
When Xu Ruohao saw that it was Ye Dina, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, but because of the other party's identity as Princess Wenwa, he was embarrassed to confront her directly.
So Xu Ruohao laughed and said, "Your Highness, I am carrying out the order of the Regent to move things."
"Why? Where are you going to move the things? Isn't this where Li... the Regent usually handles government affairs? Now that the things have been moved away, where will Li Siqi go to handle government affairs?"
Ye Dina asked hurriedly.
"Reporting to Her Royal Highness, our princess has not been in good health recently. The Regent is worried about letting her stay alone in the palace, so he wants to move the place where official business is handled back to the palace."
"This way, we can take care of the princess, and secondly, it will reduce our prince's commuting time. The prince can handle more government affairs and memorials, which greatly improves the efficiency of the prince in handling government affairs."
Xu Ruohao explained convincingly.
However, this news was like a bolt from the blue to Ye Dina.
"What? Li... The Regent actually moved to the palace to handle official business? Doesn't that mean I can't see him every day?"
Ye Dina frowned and said with dissatisfaction.
Xu Ruohao immediately laughed when he heard this. "If your Highness has any urgent matters, you can ask the Regent to handle it. My master is still waiting for me. I won't talk to you any more. I'll leave first."
After saying that, Xu Ruohao ran away quickly without giving Ye Dina a chance to speak again, leaving Ye Dina alone standing at the door, lost in thought.
After thinking it over, Ye Dina felt that this wouldn't work. She had to find a chance to get close to Li Siqi. If Li Siqi kept avoiding her, then it would be the same if she found a chance to meet Xu Yingying.
Thinking of this, Ye Dina suddenly had an idea in her mind - that is, to let Xu Yingying find a fiancé for her.
Ye Dina's dance at the banquet had previously attracted many rich young men from the Great Zhou. These young men all showed their affection to Ye Dina in the hope of winning her over.
Thinking of this, Ye Dina immediately showed a satisfied smile, she felt that she was a genius.
The next day.
Ye Dina came to the Regent's Palace again.
When Xu Ruohao saw Ye Dina appear, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch several times.
Xu Ruohao stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, Princess, are you here to see our Regent? The Regent went out early this morning for something and is not in the palace."
Ye Dina felt a little disappointed when she heard Xu Ruohao's words, but she still smiled and explained: "This princess is not here to see your prince today, but to see your princess."
Xu Ruohao was slightly stunned when he heard this, then looked at Ye Dina with a very strange expression.
Could it be that since she couldn't pursue our prince, she turned to pursuing our princess?
Thinking of this, Xu Ruohao felt that it was more credible.
"May I ask what the princess wants to see the princess for?" Xu Ruohao asked tentatively.
Ye Dina frowned slightly and said in a very unhappy tone: "This is the matter between this princess and your princess. There is no need for you, a little guard, to know it."
"Okay! I'm sorry, Your Highness, I have crossed the line." Xu Ruohao quickly apologized.
After thinking about it, Xu Ruohao still felt that he could not make the decision on this matter and had to ask Xu Yingying for instructions.
"Please wait a moment, Your Highness. I will go inside to ask our princess for instructions." Xu Ruohao said respectfully.
"Okay, go ahead!" Ye Dina waved her hand impatiently.
In the study room.
Xu Yingying is copying Buddhist scriptures.
"Your humble servant greets the princess." Xu Ruohao said respectfully.
"Get up! Did the prince ask you to tell me something?" Xu Yingying was slightly surprised to see that it was Xu Ruohao.
Xu Ruohao shook his head with a sad face when he heard this. "My princess, that's not the case. It was Princess Wenwa who asked to see you outside. I couldn't make up my mind for a while, so I came to ask you for advice."
Xu Ruohao smiled bitterly and explained that he knew that neither the prince nor the princess liked Ye Dina, but what could he do after all, she was a princess? And he himself was just a small guard, at most a confidant of Li Siqi, and he had no right to refuse Ye Dina's request to see him.
Xu Yingying frowned immediately upon hearing the voice. To be honest, she didn't want to see Ye Dina at all. But Ye Dina was like a piece of dog-skin plaster, sticking to her tightly and couldn't be shaken off no matter how hard she tried.
"Did you ask what the matter is with seeing this princess?" Xu Yingying looked at Xu Ruohao and said.
Xu Ruohao shook his head helplessly, "I asked, but Princess Wenwa refused to tell me."
When Xu Yingying heard this, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes. The murderer who killed her child actually had the nerve to hang around in front of her.
When she thought of this, Xu Yingying wanted to kill Ye Dina on the spot, but she held back.
"Then let her in. I want to see what she is going to do." Xu Yingying said expressionlessly.
"Yes, Princess." Xu Ruohao said and walked out.
After a while, Ye Dina appeared in front of Xu Yingying again.
Ye Dina glanced around the study and found that the walls of the study were covered with scriptures. She couldn't help but tease Xu Yingying, "I didn't expect that the princess actually likes to worship Buddha so much!"
Xu Yingying replied calmly: "When I have nothing to do, I copy some scriptures to accumulate merit for myself."
Ye Dina couldn't help but burst into laughter when she heard this. "How come this princess didn't realize that the Regent Princess is also a person of temperament? She actually believed this."
When Xu Yingying heard what Ye Dina said, the corners of her mouth rose slightly. "Princess Wenwa, you don't believe it? Princess, you don't know that I am very trustworthy. If you do too many bad things, you will be punished. If you have nothing to do, copy more scriptures. This will help to remove your sins."
When Ye Dina heard this, she burst into laughter as if she had heard a funny joke. "What sin could this princess have committed? It's really funny what the princess said."
Seeing that Ye Dina refused to admit it, Xu Yingying could only reply calmly: "It's good that there is nothing. I don't know why the princess came to see me today!"
Facing Xu Yingying's questioning, Ye Dina replied without blushing, "My princess! There is one thing that has been bothering me.
Xu Yingying also cooperated very well and said, "I don't know when this could have troubled you, Princess. Please tell me and I will give you some advice."
Seeing that Xu Yingying had taken the bait, Ye Dina quickly said, "After I performed a dance at a banquet some time ago, many young men in the Great Zhou Dynasty pursued me, so I would like to ask the princess to help me choose a suitable prince consort."
