The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 684: polite
Chapter 684 Polite
“Don’t worry, Second Aunt. Aunt Lu is taking care of Third Sister. She is fine, but she needs to rest in the mountains and cannot come down…” Bai Jinse covered for Bai Jintong.
“Every time I go there I can’t see Jintong, and Jintong doesn’t come back. This is not a good thing!” Liu frowned.
“Second aunt, are you still worried about grandma? It was grandma who didn’t let Third Sister go down the mountain, and didn’t let Third Sister see anyone…” Bai Jinse stepped forward and lowered her voice to speak to Second Madam Liu, “Actually, grandma didn’t want to tell you at first, because Third Sister is a girl, and the injury is just on her face, not really infected with a serious disease. Girls love face, and if they get hurt on their face… naturally they have to stay away from people and take good care of the injury, so as not to be seen by others. Second aunt also has to bear some responsibility for Third Sister!”
A girl’s face is so precious!
No wonder Jintong always avoids me.
Liu clapped her hands with her handkerchief and said, “I was wondering why Jintong didn’t even see me, her second aunt, when I went back! She got hurt on her face after all the trouble! Is it serious?”
Bai Jinse didn’t know when Bai Jintong would be able to come back, so she came up with this explanation. Otherwise…the third daughter of the Bai family always hides in the mountains, and even didn’t come back when her eldest sister got into trouble. Who can guarantee that others won’t guess that there is something strange? !
Bai Jinse doesn’t have any special abilities, but this little thing can still help the Bai family solve their problems.
She looked at Second Madam Liu, sighed and shook her head: “It’s not a minor case… but Second Aunt, don’t worry too much! Eldest Sister already knows about this matter and is looking for good medicine for Third Sister, so don’t worry! But next time you come to see Grandmother, don’t mention that you want to see Third Sister, it will only add to her pressure! Just pretend… you know nothing!”
Liu nodded with a worried look on her face: “Don’t worry, Second Aunt knows her limits!”
Liu looked at the young Bai Jinse and raised her hand to help Bai Jinse tidy up her hair: “You have to comfort your third sister, and Second Aunt will also try to find a good medicine for your third sister! Got it?!”
“Yeah!” Bai Jinse nodded.
The Grand Princess’s carriage had already stopped in front of the Bai Mansion. Nanny Jiang and Wei Zhong helped the Grand Princess into the carriage. Bai Jinse also bowed to Liu and then climbed into the carriage holding Nanny Jiang’s arm.
“Second Madam, please go back! It’s windy!” Nanny Jiang said with a smile.
Liu stood under the still-lit lanterns at the gate of Bai’s mansion and said to Nanny Jiang, “Thank you for your hard work, Mother!”
“Don’t worry, Madam!”
After watching the Grand Princess’ carriage leave, Liu felt that… this home suddenly became deserted. She sighed, listened to her personal maid Qingshu’s advice to go back, and then turned and walked into the house.

Chuntao laid thick cushions in Bai Qingyan’s carriage, hoping that Bai Qingyan would lie more comfortably.
Hearing Bai Qingyan asking for a book, Chuntao first put an extra hidden bag behind Bai Qingyan’s back, then took out the book and handed it to Bai Qingyan, then was busy lighting incense… brewing tea, and then taking out the snacks that Second Madam Liu had sent someone to prepare early from the small box in the carriage and placed them on the small table for Bai Qingyan to eat.
“Miss…” Lupin turned his horse around and walked to Bai Qingyan’s carriage, then slowly followed the carriage. “I have sent someone to deliver a letter to Miss Shen. Our convoy will move slowly and arrive near Kongtong Mountain the day after tomorrow. Let Miss Shen meet us at the Kongtong Mountain Post Station!”
Bai Qingyan raised his hand to lift the curtain, looked at Lupin and asked, “Did the people sent by the Crown Prince… catch up with Prince Murong Li of Dayan last night?”
Lupin shook his head: “No, I guess we can’t catch up. Do you want me to send someone to track him down?”
Yes, I couldn’t catch up last night, so I guess I can’t catch up.
“No need!” Bai Qingyan thought for a moment and instructed Lupin, “On the first day of November, Jin Zhi will go to the Anping camp. After Uncle Ping returns to Shuoyang, select some skilled guards and secret guards and hand them over to Xiao Si.”
“Don’t worry, Miss. I will carefully select the people around the Fourth Miss and then show them to you.”
Bai Qingyan thought of Bai Jinzhi, who had become much more stable now, and said in silence for a moment: “After choosing the person, let Xiao Si take a look at it herself… If there is anything she is not satisfied with, let her do it! I will not review it. The only thing is… She must be skilled and loyal!”
“Don’t worry, young lady!” Lupin said, looking towards the city gate, and lowered his voice, “It seems that someone from the Prince’s Mansion is waiting outside the city gate to see you off. I have already sent someone to find out who is seeing you off…”
“The prince is currently entangled in political affairs and cannot leave. It should be…” Bai Qingyan raised his eyes and thought of the handsome young eunuch, and said, “It should be Quan Yu, the personal eunuch beside the prince!”
Not long after, the guard Lupin sent to scout outside the city gate came back to report that it was Quan Yu who was waiting outside the city gate.
“Eunuch Quanyu!” Bai Jinzhi was grateful for Quanyu’s advice in the Prince’s Mansion, so he reined in his horse and greeted Quanyu with a smile.
Quan Yu hurriedly bowed and said, “Greetings, Princess Gao Yi!”
“Did the prince order you to send my elder sister off?” Bai Jinzhi held the horse whip in his hand, looking very heroic.
Quan Yu raised his head and smiled at Bai Jinzhi: “That’s right, I have the audacity to prepare some snacks for Princess Zhenguo and Princess Gaoyi. If the princess and princess don’t mind, they can use them on the road.”
“Eunuch Quanyu is so thoughtful!” Bai Jinzhi bowed to Quanyu.
Seeing the carriage of the Princess Zhenguo’s mansion approaching, Quan Yu, who was carrying a black lacquer and gold-painted food box, bowed with Bai Jinzhi, then walked to the carriage in small steps. After bowing respectfully, he approached the carriage and said, “Princess Zhenguo, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that the Princess Zhenguo is going back to Shuoyang today, so he specially asked me to bring the Crown Prince’s guards to see her off! The Crown Prince has ordered the guards to send the Princess Zhenguo back to Shuoyang safely. I have prepared some snacks here, and I hope the Princess Zhenguo will not abandon them and use some on the way!”
Chuntao glanced at Bai Qingyan, and seeing Bai Qingyan nod, she hurriedly got off the carriage to take the food box.
Bai Qingyan drew aside the curtain and looked at Quan Yu.
She did not forget that Bai Jinzhi told her that Quanyu had given Bai Jinzhi some advice in the Prince’s Mansion, and she smiled at Quanyu, “Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch. However, I will not bring His Highness’s personal guards with me. We have just experienced the Wude Gate Rebellion, and although the capital seems to be calm, it is still not stable. The personal guards of the Prince’s Mansion should be guarding His Highness! Eunuch Quanyu, thank His Highness for his kindness on my behalf, but if you want me to feel at ease… it is better to take the personal guards back with you!”
With the Prince’s personal guards following him, Bai Qingyan had to be restrained in doing things.
Besides, Shen Qingzhu still needs to join them, and it would be inconvenient for the Prince’s personal guards to be there.
Without waiting for Quanyu to speak, Bai Qingyan continued, “Last time Xiao Si went to the Prince’s Mansion to deliver a message, thank you for taking care of Eunuch Quanyu, Bai Qingyan will remember it in his heart.”
Quan Yu was terrified: “Princess Zhenguo, you are too kind! Quan Yu… Quan Yu doesn’t deserve this!”
“Eunuch Quanyu deserves it! Bai Qingyan is grateful to Eunuch Quanyu from the bottom of his heart! If the Bai family can help Eunuch Quanyu in the future, please do not be polite to the Bai family.”
