Chapter 60 Dual Identity (1)
Just after the assassination time, Zhao Ziyin arrived. With the addition of Zhao Ziyin, Zhao Ziheng will have an extra solid line of defense. Therefore, Zhao Ziyin's arrival makes people feel a little relieved!
The new year has arrived.
Everywhere is filled with the scent of spring. The Prince Jing's Mansion in Weicheng welcomes a person of special status...
"Your Majesty, the princess has just arrived."
This was a report from his subordinates while he was chatting and laughing, playing music, dancing, reciting poems and composing essays with Yinyin and others in the garden. Feng Qinghan was playing the zither, Fu Ji was dancing, Xiuying was writing for Yinyin, Zhou Yan was drinking tea on the side, and Zuo Yu was standing behind him. It is not difficult to imagine how poetic and picturesque this scene was, but it was disturbed by the sudden news. After hearing the report from his subordinates, Zhou Yan fell silent...
"...I will go and take a look."
Knowing that Zhou Yan couldn't personally confirm or greet him under such circumstances, Zuo Yu immediately responded and left with the guard who came to report. As soon as Zuo Yu and the guard left...
"...You're not going?"
Yinyin put down the pen in her hand and asked Zhou Yan. Hearing Yinyin's question, Zhou Yan hesitated and placed the teacup in his hand on the stone table beside him...
"I'll go now and be right back."
After leaving these words, Zhou Yan got up and left. He didn't seem to want to go. Affected by this incident, Feng Qinghan stopped dancing and thought for a moment. Fu Ji also stopped dancing and looked confused, as did Xiuying. Yin Yin didn't seem to react much, but she did have a feeling of looking forward to meeting her. Speaking of Zhou Yan's queen, it was of course Han Ji. Yin Yin hadn't seen her since she woke up from her long sleep. Zhou Yan took her away from the capital and away from Han Ji. She didn't know what she would feel when they met. This was what Yin Yin wanted to know.
"What kind of person is Princess Jing?"
The first person to bring up the topic was Soo-young, who had never met Han Ji before. In order to break this heavy atmosphere, she spoke.
"She is Han Ji, the painter of the Korean princess, who is as famous as Yin Yin and one of the five most beautiful women in the world."
Feng Qinghan took his hands off the strings, picked up the teacup beside him, and drank from it as he answered. His smiling face remained as usual, and it was hard to tell what his previous contemplation meant.
"The Five Princesses of the World?"
Judging from what Feng Qinghan said, it should be someone I have met and known before.
"Hua Ji? It seems that she married Prince Jing in order to form an alliance with the Zhou Kingdom."
Fu Ji said thoughtfully.
"Since she is one of the Five Princesses and a princess, she must be very beautiful, right?"
Xiuying continued to ask.
"Each of the five concubines in the world has a noble status and both talent and beauty."
Fu Ji, who was as talented and beautiful as anyone, answered like this. If not for this, Fu Ji would have been hailed as one of the Five Great Beauties in the World before , and would have become a 'dancing girl' earlier than Yin Yin. Listening to Fu Ji's words, Feng Qinghan smiled and drank his tea without saying a word.
What Yinyin cares about is not Han Ji's identity, but her position. As Zhou Yan's principal wife, Zhou Yan abandoned her for her. What would Han Ji think? Looking at Zhou Yan's gradually receding back, Yinyin seemed to be worried, which was of course seen by Feng Qinghan.
After a long time, Zhou Yan and Han Ji appeared in front of Yin Yin and the others who had stopped talking and waiting for a long time. After the greetings and formalities were completed...
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Han Ji greeted Yin Yin with a smile.
"...Yeah, long time no see."
Yinyin knew it had been a long time since they last met, but now that she had lost her memory, she didn't know how to face Han Ji, especially regarding Zhou Yan's matter, so her words and actions seemed a little restrained and awkward...
"Don't be shy. I know everything about you, but you don't have to worry about it. Let's continue to get along with each other as openly as before."
Han Ji came forward and held Yin Yin's hands, and spoke softly, without any hostility towards Yin Yin. Her smile was so gentle and kind, and Yin Yin felt as if a thin layer of ice deep in her heart was melting, because Han Ji's words were too shocking, Yin Yin was moved and didn't know how to respond...
“Who are these three?”
Knowing Yinyin's inner pain, Han Ji did not make it too difficult for her, and changed the subject, asking the other three...
"My humble daughter Fu Ji greets the princess."
"I am Feng Qinghan, meeting the princess."
"I am Xiuying, the maid of the princess, and I am here to see the princess."
The three of them introduced themselves to Han Ji and saluted one after another.
" Please don't be so polite, all three of you."
After responding to the three people, Han Ji glanced at the surrounding scene and soon understood: "Did I disturb your elegance?"
"No, no, that's not the case. We are so happy that Sister Han Ji can come, right, Sister Han Ji?"
Because of Han Ji's words, Yin Yin impulsively called out the long-lost name. This name made her feel an unforgettable sense of intimacy, but she immediately realized that this name might be a little rude.
