Bai Xiangxiu listened attentively, but she wasn't too familiar with these matters.
As a result, she gathered a few familiar mamas for a small meeting. Only then did she realize that there were so many things to pay attention to when the women of ancient aristocratic families went out. It was really an eye-opener.
First of all, all the aristocrats in the capital had family emblems.
The emblem of the prince's residence was an eagle embroidered on a blue triangular flag. Because it was the Prince, the edge of the flag was inlaid with gold.
There was a strong 'dragon' character below, looking steady and heroic.
Bai Xiangxiu was extremely afraid of the eagle's eyes. They looked a bit like Long Heng's eyes. They were very sharp, like knives.
Back to the topic, if the women of the prince's residence were ordinary masters, such as herself or a young lady who came to visit, they would hang a cloth sail embroidered with the prince's residence emblem on the right side of the carriage. It didn't have gold borders.
It didn't look particularly conspicuous, but if you looked closely, you could tell which family it belonged to.
But the old madame was much more particular when going out. She was the mistress of the prince's residence, so when she went out, there would be a red-bordered family emblem on her carriage.
Red was the symbol of the main wife here. Usually, no one except for the young lady or the main wife could wear red.
Of course, she also had to think about who to bring this time, what to prepare, and what to use on the road. Otherwise, if the old madame wasn't happy, she wouldn't be far from being banished to the cold palace.
In order to make the leader happy, Bai Xiangxiu pressed down on her waist and began to make all sorts of preparations with her still-swollen hand.
Fortunately, she had a good relationship with these old maids and helped them a lot.
Once everything was ready, she would have to move to another place herself.
How could this be? Winter Garden was one of the conditions for her return. She could break her head and bleed, but this place couldn't be moved.
"Put down your things and don't move.
Who, who told me to move to Apricot Garden? "
Apricot Garden was only a wall away from the Prince and Long Heng's residence. In the future, it would be arranged for the female lead.
Arranging for her to go in at this time, did he want her to die early or die early?
Ye-mama smiled and said, "Naturally, it's Prince. He said that Winter Garden is too small and far away, so it's not very convenient to deal with things here."
In reality, all the servants knew that it was because the Prince wanted to raise her status that he wanted her to move out of Winter Garden.
"I got it. I'll go talk to Prince. Don't touch anything else, okay?"
Bai Xiangxiu felt that men in ancient times were domineering. When she read in the book, she felt that she could rely on such men. She could get everything she wanted without any effort and live a carefree life.
However, there was also a flaw, and that was that he did not discuss anything with her. He acted on his own and thought that he was infallible.
She didn't want her status to be raised, nor did she want to move out of Winter Garden. She had to make this clear to him.
Bai Xiangxiu did not have the slightest confidence in refuting Long Heng, but she felt that this matter related to her return must not be compromised.
As she walked and thought, she finally arrived at Long Heng's courtyard.
Because she had walked too quickly, she was already panting by the time she arrived.
Outside the courtyard, everyone was busy. Someone had brought a horse over and was preparing a saddle.
Today, Long Heng was also going to send his mother to the manor in the south and was also preparing.
He was dressed in neat black clothes and a golden dragon silk belt was tightly fastened around his waist. It made him look very deep and full of power, like a leopard that could kill its enemies at any time.
Seeing him like this, Bai Xiangxiu felt weak for a moment, but she gritted her teeth and still walked over.
Unexpectedly, Long Heng's face flashed when he saw her, and a dreamy smile floated on his lips.
Long Heng's face was really a gift from the heavens. When he did not smile, he was a domineering president, but when he smiled, he was a gentle and beautiful man, making people's hearts tremble and even show signs of softening.
Bai Xiangxiu's heart, which had been in her throat a moment ago, was no longer so afraid when she saw his smile. She quickly walked over and gently curtsied, "Greetings to Prince."
"No need, there is no need to be so courteous in our own home."
Long Heng was in a good mood. She actually came to see him off when he was about to leave.
Seeing her rush over, he felt unusually warm in his heart.
Not only did this little girl deeply believe in his character, but she was also so reliant on him. As a man, his heart was filled with boundless pride, and his heart was as warm as the sun.
"Prince, have a safe trip this time."
Even if his smile was very gentle, she did not dare to say it. What should she do?
Bai Xiangxiu secretly blamed herself for being so timid, but when she saw his eyes become even gentler, she could not help but say, "Prince, there is one more thing."
Long Heng had already been coaxed by her silky and charming tone. If there were not people watching, he would have already hugged her tightly.
Now that she said there was something, even if she asked him to kill someone, he would not hesitate to agree.
"What is it?"
"It's like this, I … I have a habit. I can't sleep if I move, so I don't want to move out of Winter Garden.
Do you think it is possible for me to stay in Winter Garden? "
At this time, Long Heng really made her heart beat faster and her ears feel a little anxious.
"Hm?"
Long Heng frowned. Apricot Garden was so close to him, but she did not want to move. Was she trying to avoid him?
When he thought of this, his good mood completely disappeared.
How could Bai Xiangxiu not notice his change? She could not help but feel her heart tremble as she said this.
"I am still a little afraid of the cold. It is a bit cold in a big place.
Also, I just took the job and moved. It is hard to avoid people thinking too much.
How about we wait until next summer to move? "
"Whoever dares to say more, immediately move."
Long Heng wasn't going to listen to any excuses. He ordered coldly.
But Bai Xiangxiu became excited. It was as if she would not be able to return home if she moved.
Thus, she suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Prince, please allow me to stay in Winter Garden." She was full of excuses. She gritted her teeth and refused to back down.
"You … you actually want to disobey orders?"
Long Heng did not think that she would have the courage to do this. He could not help but be startled and then feel a wave of anger.
Bai Xiangxiu's tears were about to fall, but she held them back and said, "I don't dare, but Prince, please allow me."
"Miss Bai." He shouted. Obviously she was afraid, but she did not back down.
The surrounding people also knelt on the ground. The atmosphere became very tense.
Bai Xiangxiu's body was also trembling from the cold. Even though she was kneeling there, it seemed like she would collapse at any moment.
Long Heng was thinking about how to punish her. After being in the army for so many years, no one could refute his intentions.
There was actually such a person in his own palace. And it was a woman so weak that he could even lift a finger.
Was she doing this on purpose? She was trying to embarrass him in front of so many people.
