The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 427 Shen Jiarou Shows Herself to Bao Zhiqing

Yang Taobo was successfully fooled, and Uncle Chang looked at his son with excitement on his face.

"Um... son, have you really learned how to recite poetry and write well?"

Yang Taobo frowned and pursed his lips: "Father, why don't you believe it? I'll recite a poem for you.

There is no blooming in the New Year, and I was surprised to see grass buds in early February.

The white snow thinks that spring is coming too late, so it flies through the trees in the garden. "Spring Snow"

Han Yu (Tang Dynasty)

Translation

There were no fragrant flowers to be seen until the New Year, and it was not until early February that I was surprised to find new shoots of grass.

But the white snow thought that spring came too late, so it deliberately turned into flowers and flew among the trees in the courtyard.

Lord Changbo and the housekeepers were all stunned. Was it really their son/prince who carried this on his back?

Could it be an illusion?

Seeing their shocked look, Yang Taobo raised his head proudly.

"Father, how is it?"

Uncle Chang realized it belatedly and was extremely happy.

"Son, good job, you can recite so many poems now."

"About seventy or eighty."

Everyone was dumbfounded. Wow, seventy or eighty poems, that's amazing.

When Mrs. Changbo heard that her son had returned home, she hurried to the front yard with her servants.

"Son, you're back." Isn't it time yet? Princess Yongkang released him early?

Yang Taobo politely greeted her as a junior: "Son greets mother."

Seeing their son performing the ceremony so properly, the old couple were stunned. This son was truly different in every way.

Mrs. Chang Bo was very happy: "Son, are you still going?"

"Go ahead, it's the last few days." There will be no real reason to go in the future.

Seeing the changes in their son, the old couple felt very relieved.

In the courtyard of the Tang Mansion, the father and daughter were chatting, while Ruan Qingling and others were responsible for adding tea and water.

"It's the new year now, will the princess go to her fiefdom?" He thought she would go, after all, that was the little girl's hometown, and it was also the time when she could be freer.

"Go, it's a pity that daddy doesn't have time to visit his daughter's hometown."

Tang Wenzong lowered his head and smiled: "It's okay, Daddy Princess can tell you."

Shen Jiarou looked at the snowflakes falling all over the sky and sighed, "Time flies by so fast."

She remembered that when she met her father, she was only six years old. Now she was eleven years old, and would be twelve in a few months.

The winter seemed to be very long. One day, Bai Yunsu came to visit the princess's mansion.

Looking at her, who was as cold as a fairy in a painting, Shen Jiarou smiled at her happily.

"Sister Bai is here."

"Your humble servant greets the princess."

"Sister Bai, please take a seat!"

"Thank you, Princess." She stroked her light rose-red dress and sat down: "It's really cold outside."

"Your rose-red dress is quite nice. It suits your skin tone very well."

"You, every time you come here you always praise me." She was shy at first, but got used to it after a while.

"That's not the way to say it. After all, there have to be merits that people can point out, otherwise you can't praise it even if you want to."

"Okay, okay, I admire you the most." No wonder many people like her, she is really likable, sweet-mouthed, pretty, thoughtful and careful in her dealings, who can refuse her.

Thinking of something, Shen Jiarou suddenly raised her eyes and looked directly at Bai Yunsu who was sipping tea.

"Sister Shutong, please stay. Everyone please leave." They bowed and left.

Shen Jiarou happily leaned over and whispered in Bai Yunsu's ear: "Sister Bai, what do you think about that matter?"

She created the conditions for her, and she won.

Hearing this, Bai Yuntaisu blushed and lowered her head.

"Sister Princess, I still don't know what to say. What do you think I should do about this?"

Shen Jiarou was still thinking of a solution when Bai Yunsu threw something at her.

"My cousin the princess also knows about it."

"Ah, you told her?" My silly sister, in this age where reputation is so important, shouldn't the fewer people who know about this the better?

"She guessed it, so I..." It was her own fault that she betrayed herself, and she couldn't blame anyone else.

"You are so kind, but I am really afraid that you will find someone who doesn't know how to cherish you." She should try her best, what if the two of them can succeed?

"Well...why don't you say hello to Madam Bai first and see what she thinks, so that we can have a new plan for dealing with it."

"Tell mother?" She was a little hesitant.

"No matter what, you have to take a step forward and work hard for happiness."

After she left, Shen Jiarou decided to talk to the chef again. She didn't know if it was because of her preconceived ideas or something, but she felt more and more that the two of them were a perfect match.

As soon as Bao Zhiqing entered the study, Shen Jiarou trembled reflexively.

"I felt that the atmosphere became much colder as soon as the chef came in." She didn't know if she was too sensitive.

"I am here to see you, Princess. Do you have anything for me to do?"

Shen Jiarou looked at the others, and Zheng Shutong understood. He took a few people away and stood guard outside the door.

"I want to ask you something. What do you think of Sister Bai?"

Bao Zhiqing was stunned: Why did the princess suddenly mention Bai Xiangjun?

"pretty good."

Shen Jiarou blinked and was stunned: "No more?"

This is really straight male speaking.

"Anything else?" There seemed to be something wrong with the princess today, especially after Bai Xiangjun left.

Shen Jiarou glanced outside and leaned over to whisper.

"Don't you have any ideas?" She was forced to explain as a little girl. It was really hard for her to ensure the happiness of her good sister.

"Um... gentle, beautiful, and considerate, does that count?"

"Yes, why not? There is more?"

Bao Zhiqing became more and more confused, what else did he have to say.

"Princess, please forgive me for being so rude. What do you want to say?"

Shen Jiarou was silent, closed her eyes deeply and said, "You don't have any thoughts about her?"

Bao Zhiqing's face flushed: "I dare not."

"Don't worry. People have to have ideas and goals. Whether they can be achieved or not is another matter."

Bao Zhiqing vaguely felt that something was wrong and wanted to run away.

"Princess, I suddenly remembered that I have something unfinished. I will..."

"Don't think about running away. You must tell me today whether you like her or not. In other words, tell me how you feel about her."

Bao Zhiqing found it a little difficult to say. He was born a guard and his background was not comparable to Bai Xiangjun's. The difference between the two was too great.

Shen Jiarou stared at him with burning eyes, as if she would not give up until he said it. In the end, Bao Zhiqing was defeated.

"Princess, don't be angry when I tell you to."

"Just say it, you big man, you're just dithering." She ended up hating people who dithered.

"I am somewhat moved." After all, the other party is very beautiful.

Shen Jiarou was overjoyed: "If she is willing, and her family is willing, what will you do?"

"This..." Could such a good thing be possible?

Brother, you won’t still want to escape now that things have come to this.

"It shouldn't be, after all, the difference is too big."

Shen Jiarou touched her chin and pursed her lips and said, "It's not so bad. You are the chief guard of the legitimate princess after all. Besides, this princess is so favored. Although we are not well-matched, we are not marrying too low. Besides, it's not like you can't afford the betrothal gift."

She was very generous to her subordinates, giving them rewards during festivals and for a job well done. He must have at least tens of thousands of taels in savings, after all, he was the first one to come to her side.
