Chapter 445, don't give face
Since entering the main East Palace, Lu Ruxue has been empty. When I had nothing to do, I remembered picking cotton and a few loyal servants.
"The rules in the palace, palace maids are not allowed to be released from the palace if they are not yet twenty. If you don't leave now, you'll have to wait until five years from now. ”
"Everything is up to the crown princess. Cai Mian and the others knelt on the ground and gave the crown princess a big gift. At this time, Master Xie can still think about them as slaves.
The cotton pickers are loyal to their masters, precisely because they have long seen and understood that the masters will never treat those loyal subordinates badly. With such a master, after a few years, you can have a good home, and you may even no longer be a slave.
No one is born to want to serve others, and no one is willing to be a slave for several lifetimes. After following their master for so long, they have also learned to plan for themselves.
Since Lu Ruxue entered the East Palace, even her mother's family rarely came to see her. Every time I enter the palace, I have to hand over a sign to ask for a decree, which is very troublesome.
And according to the old lady Lu's personality, he doesn't want people to talk about the people of Lu Mansion behind his back. Therefore, it was ordered that unless there was a last resort, no one in the Lu Mansion should often ask for an order to enter the palace.
Although Lu Ruxue is not as close to her mother's family as before due to amnesia, she is still very affectionate towards Lu Fu.
Since he was named the crown prince, Mu Xuanyang no longer used physical discomfort as an excuse, but accompanied the emperor to listen to the government every day, and the entire East Palace was busy.
At this time, I had time, so I wanted to come to see my wife and children, and when I entered the palace gate, I saw my wife holding her son and sitting on the couch telling stories.
With a warm face, he walked to his wife and sat down, and gently wrapped his arms around his wife's waist, "I heard that you only ate a few snacks for lunch, but what's uncomfortable?"
Since the two had a skin-to-skin relationship these days, Mu Xuanyang likes to hug himself when he has nothing to do. However, Lu Ruxue also slowly began to get used to it, so she didn't dodge.
"The body is fine, but I can't refine the medicine and make the pill like before, it's a little boring. ”
She has no expertise, and because of her amnesia, if she can't even fiddle with herbs, her life is really boring.
"You are the crown princess, if you want to get a small pharmacy in the East Palace, it's just a matter of one sentence, just let people do it. ”
Mu Xuanyang felt that this was not a big deal. And the emperor has already decreed that when the crown princess was still the princess of Han, she was not forbidden to study medicine.
"Hmm!" Lu Ruxue also thought that this matter was no big deal. But as soon as she made a move, Concubine Yu came to stop her.
said that the palace has its own rules in the palace, and the crown princess is an example for the East Palace, how can she take the lead in breaking the rules. She was not allowed to build a pharmacy privately in the East Palace.
Now Concubine Yu is in charge of the affairs of the East Palace, Lu Ruxue does not want the queen to be embarrassed, and it is not easy to rely on her identity to embarrass her.
Mu Xuanyang saw that his wife wanted to speak and stopped, it seems that this matter is not as simple as he thought.
After having dinner with his wife, he told his wife to rest early while there were still some twists and turns to deal with. So he took people to the study of the East Palace.
"Luo Cheng, is there something going on in the palace today?" After Mu Xuanyang was named the crown prince and entered the East Palace, except for the personal guards such as Ice Blade, he was just a few eunuchs.
And this Luo Cheng is the chief eunuch of the East Palace, and the big and small affairs in the palace can't escape the eyes of this minion.
"Back to His Royal Highness, the crown princess went to greet the queen in the morning, and stayed in the palace. At the end of the meal time, Concubine Chen came to greet the crown princess. …”
After the emperor ascended the throne, he cleaned the inner palace, and most of the inner servants and palace maids who had served Emperor Jianwen had been killed or released from the palace as slaves. Like Luo Cheng, most of the people who can be the head of the first palace are the attendant eunuchs of the former Yan Palace.
How could Luo Cheng not know that the prince cared about the crown princess the most, so when he replied, he put the princess first everywhere.
"The crown princess took people to the whole hall today and wanted to build a small pharmacy. But Concubine Yu led people to stop the crown princess on the grounds that there was no such precedent in the palace. …”
Before Luo Cheng finished speaking, he saw the prince slam the fold in his hand on the table, and snorted angrily, "Presumptuous!"
"Please calm His Royal Highness the Prince's anger!" Luo Cheng and the other eunuchs who accompanied him, as well as several personal guards of Ice Blade, all knelt on the ground. If you don't look up, you can know that the prince is annoyed by Concubine Yu.
"Spread the prince's decree, tomorrow I will sort out the side hall of the crown princess and build a pharmacy for the princess. But some people dare to stop it, and they resist the guilt of the law. ”
Mu Xuanyang once promised in front of the old lady of the Lu Mansion and Mrs. Tai that he would only marry Lu Ruxue as his wife in his life and never accept a concubine.
But in the end, he couldn't withstand the coercion of Gaozu and the emperor, so he was ashamed because he broke his trust with his wife.
I don't want this concubine to be depressed, and she uses chicken feathers as an arrow, but she dares not to put the princess in her eyes. It seems that it is time to clean up the East Palace, at least let those people recognize who is the master of this East Palace.
Concubine Chen thought that compared to Concubine Yu's domineering, she could attract the attention of the prince as long as she pretended to respect the crown princess.
But she waited left and right, she had been in the palace for more than a month, and she still couldn't wait for the prince to enter her bedroom. And every day the news that came in was that the prince went to accompany the princess again.
is not favored, has no heirs, and the prince will ascend the throne in the future, even if she is named the fourth concubine, it is impossible for her to gain a foothold in the palace.
So today, I heard that the prince did not call the princess to sleep, so I was in a hurry, and brought a food box with the palace maid to the study to show my concern.
"Concubine Chen, the prince has something to do, so it's inconvenient to see the concubine. If the concubine can trust the slave, she will hand over this food box to the slave for inheritance, okay?"
The prince just got angry, and this Luo Cheng was also thinking about Concubine Chen, so he stopped him.
But in the eyes of Concubine Chen, these chamberlains who were born in Princess Yan were all people from the crown princess, and they clearly deliberately blocked her from asking to see the prince.
"It seems that in the eyes of Manager Luo, there is only the crown princess, and my side concubine is afraid that it has no weight, right?"
"The dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people. Luo Cheng muttered to himself in his heart, since he couldn't make this good fate, Luo Cheng didn't mind, let this Concubine Chen also eat a meal.
"The slave doesn't dare, the side concubine, please wait, the slave will pass it on to you. Seeing Luo Cheng retreat, Concubine Chen was still a little complacent.
But before Luo Cheng came out to reply, he heard the prince's cold words coming from the study, "Let her go back." ”
Concubine Chen's face stiffened, neither advancing nor retreating. When Luo Cheng came out, although there was nothing on his face, Concubine Chen could still feel a sense of contempt from him.
"It's not that the slave is not dedicated, it's really that the prince is a little busy these days, Concubine Chen should go back first," this time I didn't even mention the food box.
At the beginning, I gave face, but I didn't want this Chen side concubine. Then he Luo Cheng, as the head of the East Palace, there is no need to take a hot face and paste other people's cold noodles.
