Chapter 328 Hearsay
"crunch..."
Zhou Chang lay on the rattan chair and rocked vigorously twice, like a lazy and complacent cat.
Thinking back to what happened after dinner yesterday, she couldn't figure out why she said those words to Yuan Qi at that time.
Although what she said was not wrong, and she had even said it before, why should she hold someone's hand?
Isn't it causing misunderstanding?
For this reason, she didn't sleep well last night and didn't go to the bedroom for breakfast this morning.
What's going on here?
It is also possible that it was not her, but Prince Yi's consciousness.
But at that time, she was clearly very sober and could not put the blame on Prince Yi.
Could it be that he has been Prince Yi for so long that he can no longer tell the difference?
If so, you still have to pay back the "loan" as soon as possible, and then earn commissions. The commissions you earn can be exchanged for Yuan Qi...
What is Yuan Qi’s worth?
Zhou Chang was discouraged again and could only focus on the present: "Viewpoint System, how much loan do I have left to pay back?"
The viewpoint system does not make any sound, but displays the following information:
[Level: Upper Nine-Three]
【Commission: -4,980,000 taels】
【Order: 51】
"How much commission did I earn this month?" Zhou Chang, a "math idiot", had to ask even though it was useless to look at it.
Viewpoint System: "One hundred thousand taels of commission."
"It's not a small amount." Zhou Chang said this, but he felt dizzy when he saw the string of zeros. How long would it take to pay it back?
By the way, her shopping and live streaming of selling goods are just small things.
Most of the 100,000 taels of "commission" were things brought back from the Yuan family during the three visits.
Yuan Yu really took the trouble to give Prince Yi many exquisite little gadgets.
Zhou Chang didn't plan to keep any for Prince Yi. He would just "live broadcast and sell goods" as soon as he got them. Anyway, he had received too many things recently, so if there were a few missing, no one would care.
But this is too slow. When it comes to the quality of goods, the Palace is still the best.
Zhou Chang was just thinking about how to "bring goods" from the palace again when a skinny guy walked in from outside.
"Your Highness, we have no idea what dinner is served. Would you like to go for a walk on the street?" The skinny monkey said as he placed the teapot in his hand on the coffee table next to the rattan chair.
"Why?" Although Zhou Chang avoided Yuan Qi for breakfast, he did not plan to miss dinner.
"How could Your Majesty forget? Didn't the princess say yesterday that she wanted to go back to her parents' home?" the skinny monkey reminded.
"Hmm?" Zhou Chang couldn't remember clearly.
The thin monkey poured Zhou Chang a glass of water and handed it to him: "At the very end, when we were at the door of the palace, the prince even agreed that in order to save the princess from the hardship, it would be better to let her stay at her parents' home for one night. They haven't seen each other for a long time, so they can talk more."
"Ah..." Zhou Chang then remembered that she had said those words at that time, but she could no longer tell whether it was her consciousness or Prince Yi's consciousness.
"However, Your Majesty, although the princess said she was going back to her parents' home, there is one thing I don't know whether I should tell her or not." The skinny monkey hesitated.
Zhou Chang rarely saw the skinny monkey hesitate when speaking: "What can you not say to me?"
The thin monkey said, "Your Majesty, if the princess really just went back to her parents' home to stay for one night, then there is nothing wrong with that. I am just afraid that if the princess goes to Yaoyuefang, what will happen?"
"Yaoyuefang? Why should we go to Yaoyuefang?" Zhou Chang wondered, hadn't Yaoyuefang been given to Prince Duan?
"I just went to the kitchen to get something to eat. When I passed by the bedroom, I heard people talking inside. They mentioned Yaoyuefang. The people who were talking seemed to be Manager Li and Nanny Duan, so I listened for a while longer..." The skinny monkey made an opening remark first, but it was as good as saying nothing.
Zhou Chang rolled his eyes and said, "Speak to the point."
The skinny monkey tilted his head and thought for a while. "The main point? I don't know where to start. Two days ago, I heard that Yaoyuefang had changed its owner and was going to hold some kind of event with great fanfare. Then, there was the 'Boyin Conference'. I don't know how they decided to hold a review meeting at Yaoyuefang to review music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine, flowers and tea."
Zhou Chang had heard all this a long time ago, and it was because Yaoyuefang was given to Prince Duan for free.
I guess after getting the title of Prince Duan, he came up with some gimmick to take the opportunity to attract attention and make money.
As for the "Bo Yin Hui", Zhou Chang had to think hard before he remembered what it was about.
As soon as the skinny monkey saw Zhou Chang's expression, he knew what was wrong: "Your Highness, the 'Bo Yin Hui' is a gathering of scholars organized by the Bo Yin Academy opened by His Royal Highness Prince Rong. Mr. Zhong also mentioned this before."
"Well, go on, what does this have to do with Yuan Qi, no, the princess going to Yaoyuefang?" Zhou Chang didn't think there was any possibility that Yuan Qi would go to Yaoyuefang.
The thin monkey said, "The prince thought of Boyin Academy, but he certainly doesn't know that Wen Zhuangyuan has served as the honorary chief of Boyin Academy and the chief judge of this "Boyin Conference". And the princess's younger brother, the young master of the Yuan family, also plans to study at Boyin Academy..."
"Wait a minute, what's going on here?" Zhou Chang's mind was confused. "Start from the beginning."
"Ahem..." The skinny monkey cleared his throat and sorted out his thoughts, "My humble servant said that the Bo Yin Association was originally going to hold a tasting conference at Yao Yue Fang..."
"Not here," Zhou Chang interrupted quickly, "I didn't ask you to start from here. I was asking, how did you know that Yuan Jie was going to study at Boyin Academy?"
The most important thing is, she had been eating at the same table with Yuan Qi every day during this period, and they talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Why had she never heard Yuan Qi mention it?
The thin monkey started again: "This matter happened half a month ago. When I was eating in the outer room, I accidentally heard Madam Duan and Aunt Li chatting and they mentioned it."
"Aunt Li is the Manager Li?" Zhou Chang interrupted again.
There are so many people around Yuan Qi that he still hasn’t been able to recognize them all.
"Yes, it's that Li, the headmaster. Ever since the prince called her 'headmaster' himself, some people have changed their words today."
Zhou Chang said nothing. She was already used to calling Li Caifeng "Manager Li".
The thin monkey continued, "They said at that time that the princess would stay in Jindu for a long time after marrying the prince, so Master Yuan also planned to stay in Jindu for a long time. Since that young master Yuan Jie has also come to Jindu, and fortunately he has not left, we have to find a good academy for him to study. Speaking of good academies, as long as you ask around, Boyin Academy is the best in Jindu City."
"There are many academies, and it doesn't have to be the Boyin Academy. By the way, I remember that Mr. Zhong was quite disapproving of that academy." Zhou Chang and Prince Yi have never cared about the affairs of scholars.
The thin monkey didn't need to think: "I did ask Mr. Zhong what the 'Bo Yin Association' is. Mr. Zhong said that it is equivalent to the alumni association organized by the Bo Yin Academy, which has always been used by His Royal Highness Prince Rong to form cliques and factions."
"Forming cliques? Mr. Zhong really said that?" It was normal for Zhong Yu to have no good explanation when it came to Prince Rong, but Zhou Chang still doubted that Mr. Zhong would be so "straightforward".
