Chen Afu asked people to write a post and send it to the princess's mansion, saying that he would take the child to visit the princess tomorrow.
Little Miss Chu likes to be a guest very much now, but when she heard that she was going to the "bad woman's" house as a guest, she pouted. Leaning on Chen Afu's arms and asking, "Mother, can I not go?"
Chen Afu smiled and comforted, "Don't be afraid, your grandfather is also in the princess's mansion, Princess Rongzhao doesn't dare to do anything." β
The little girl Chu said again, "Spring is coming, why hasn't the golden swallow come back yet? If it is here, let it lead the bird pot lid to the princess's house to pull dung." β
Ever since a swallow flew in, the little girl began to look forward to the golden swallow.
Chen Afu hurriedly said, "Shhh, don't let others know that the bird pot lid is related to the golden swallow, otherwise the golden swallow won't survive." β
Chen Afu reminded Xiao Shiyi and Little Miss Chu many times about this matter. The little girl was in a hurry, and forgot her mother's reminder.
She quickly covered her mouth and said softly, "Okay, I'll not say anything more." β
At night, Chen Afu took Xiao Yu'er into the space again.
Jin Yanzi was able to go out, and he was very excited, and brought Jin Bei out of the golden house. It's been so long, and it's the first time Chen Afu has seen Jinbei.
Jinbei is covered with feathers and is extremely beautiful. Its eyes are closed, but it can be felt breathing, as if it were asleep.
Chen Afu said, "Ah, Bei Bei is already alive." β
Jin Yanzi chirped and laughed, "Yes, it's just that it has been sleeping, and people have tried many ways to wake it up." β
When it was almost time, the golden swallow said that as soon as it went out, it would enter the palace to visit the stinky treasure.
Chen Afu reminded, "The baby must not bring too many birds to the palace to play, let alone let the emperor know that the flock of birds that attacked Rong Zhao is related to us." Otherwise, the Chu family will be in trouble. β
Jin Yanzi raised the corners of her mouth and said, "People are so smart, of course they won't do such stupid things." β
As soon as the time came, the black light flashed, and the golden swallow flew out of the space.
Chen Afu went out of the space to feed Xiao Yu'er's milk, put her into the space, put Jinbei on her small bed, and went to bed alone.
And in a side hall of Siyuan Palace, Xiao Eleven was sleeping soundly. Although he has his own palace, because Concubine Xian is reluctant to him, he still lives in Siyuan Palace with Concubine Xian.
He felt like someone was scratching his ears and nose, and he rubbed his nose and ears and rolled over and fell asleep. The golden swallow continued to scratch with the tips of her wings, and finally woke Xiao Eleven up.
When he opened his eyes, the light from the palace lamp was extremely faint. He still saw a swallow standing next to his pillow, smiling at him with the corners of his mouth raised.
"Jinbao!" he sat up and grabbed the golden swallow into his hand excitedly.
The eunuch serving outside the tent heard the voice and asked, "Your Highness, do you want to pay respects?"
Little Eleven hurriedly said, "No, I'm talking in my sleep." β
The eunuch on duty at night was quite puzzled, he was still so awake when he was talking in his sleep, but he didn't dare to ask more.
Xiao Eleven excitedly grabbed the golden swallow, put it under his nose and smelled it, and also smelled its special taste, which was somewhat like the fragrance of his mother's own person. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, and when he was often accompanied by the golden swallow in the future, he would feel that his mother and sister were by his side, and his life in the palace would be much better.
Jin Yanzi rolled her eyes when she was pinched by him, and she didn't dare to scream, so angry that she scolded "Stinky Dabao" in her heart.
The next day, Chen Afu led the children to finish breakfast, fed Xiao Yu'er milk, and asked the little brothers and Xiao Yuer to be sent to An Rongtang. The third master is not at home, and the two sons go to school again, and the third lady likes to tease these children when she has nothing to do. Especially Xiao Yu'er, if it weren't for Chen Afu breastfeeding herself, she might often be left in Rong'an Hall by the third lady.
Chen Afu cleaned up himself and Little Girl Chu, especially dressed up the little girl well. When the little girl was taken out of the princess's mansion, she was a thin little idiot, so pitiful. Now, she is not only healthy and intelligent, but also beautiful like a little fairy.
The gifts for the princess's mansion were prepared by the Foreign Affairs Office, and Chen Afu would not prepare gifts for Rong Zhao by himself.
When the carriage arrived at the princess's mansion, the sedan chair carried them directly to the main courtyard where the princess lived.
Entering the courtyard, Little Miss Chu instinctively became afraid. not only pulled Chen Afu's hand tighter, but also clung to Chen Afu's body, and followed suit.
Chen Afu whispered comforting again, "Don't be afraid." β
In the room on the east side, the Marquis of Chu, who was wearing a half-new and old cyan shirt, was sitting on the kang reading a book. Seeing Chen Afu leading his eldest granddaughter here, there was a smile on his face.
He put down the book and said, "The princess is in the room, let the daughter-in-law go in." Yan'er is too young, don't be sick, just stand at the door and say hello. With that, he got up and walked to the bedroom.
Chen Afu breathed a sigh of relief, this grandfather is really caring. She didn't want the little girl to get too close to Rong Zhao, not only for fear of being too sick, but also for fear of scaring the little girl.
The girl standing at the door opened the soft curtain, Marquis Chu took the lead in walking, Chen Afu followed behind, and Chu Hanyan was led by Mama Huang to stand at the door.
The bedroom is very large, and the furnishings are extremely luxurious, and it is only after passing through several layers of curtains that you come to the couch with gold and jade inlays.
Rong Zhao reclined on the couch, because he put on some light makeup, he didn't feel ugly. But his eyes were blank, his breath was short, and he lost his original brilliance and invincibility. This is not only because of illness, but also because of heart disease.
Marquis Chu sat on a chair a little far away from the couch, Chen Afu approached the couch, bent his knees and said diplomatic words, "Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess." I hope that Her Royal Highness the princess will take care of her health and recover soon. β
Rong Zhao now wants to see Chen Afu, but he is afraid to see Chen Afu. I want to see it, because Chen Afu, the daughter-in-law, came to her to set up rules, so that it showed that Chu Lang was still his own concubine, and the Chu family still respected themselves.
I was afraid to see it because I didn't want the woman's daughter-in-law to see her embarrassment.
Therefore, she specially asked her subordinates to put on makeup for her, put on a garnet-red dress that could make her face look better, and wore a garnet-encrusted headdress and earrings.
She straightened up and snorted coldly, "You are the daughter-in-law of the palace, you have been in Beijing for so long, why did you come to greet you now?"
Looking at Rong Zhao, who was holding on, Chen Afu snorted secretly, and said that the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married, why do you bother to worry about a man with a wife, and make the family so miserable. Now, you and Concubine Ma Shu have lost power, but the Chu family has risen. The unpopular princess who has no support is either a pawn or an outcast......
Chen Afu lowered his eyes and said, "Princess, when we returned to the capital, we were first busy preparing for the return of His Royal Highness Eleventh to the palace, and then we were busy with the affairs of the prince going south. Later, His Royal Highness Eleventh often asked people to send letters, saying that he and Concubine Xian liked to eat the dim sum I made......"
