Chapter 15: Special
CHAPTER XIV
Duchess Chengguo has also seen heaven and earth and gone to the palace these days.
Empress Yuan is usually a very thoughtful person, but when it comes to the marriage of the crown prince Zhu Xi, she is undecided.
The emperor's favorite prince is the crown prince Zhu Xi and the second prince Zhu Sheng, both of whom came out of her belly.
Although the other concubines also have children, they are much different in age from the two princes. It can be said that the emperor was very good to her, and the first two princes stood on their heels before the other concubines had children.
Therefore, Empress Yuan is not only afraid that the person she picked, but the prince will not like it, and she will be the wife for a lifetime, if it is really wrong, it will also make people uncomfortable for a lifetime, and she is also afraid that the person she chooses will not be able to bear the heavy responsibility of the mother of a country in the future and disturb the society.
There is no one around her who can help her come up with ideas, so she can only call her sister to the palace to talk about herself.
The crown prince Zhu Xi was punished by the emperor for pretending to be a eunuch a few days ago and thought about it in the East Palace, and he has not left his palace gate for many days.
In fact, he is nothing more than a shame for doing this, he is also a very assertive person, so he naturally wants to see with his own eyes the future crown princess selected for him by his mother. If you want to blame, you can only blame his wishful cousin! Otherwise, he would have arranged for his own people to cover nearby, and he would not be discovered at all!
But the prince hated and hated, and he couldn't do anything to his cousin, not to mention others, and his father and queen mother couldn't spare him. Moreover, there was a humiliating fact that he did not want to admit - his cousin was more than a year younger than her, less than two years old, but his force value was much higher than his. Don't look at the little girl's small size, her hands are scary, she dragged him all the way last time, and his wrists were red the next day. There is really no place to reason for such a humiliating thing.
Duchess Chengguo also understood his thoughts, and was afraid that this matter would really become a knot in the hearts of their cousins, so she brought Ruyi with her and asked her to bring some family pastries, which could also ease the relationship between the two.
Ruyi later learned that she had almost ruined the prince's cousin's big thing after her mother's dialing. Although she was reluctant, she still listened to her mother's words, went to Queen Yuan to ask for a waist card, and went to show favor with a snack.
As for the crown prince Zhu Xi, he held back in the East Palace for a few days, his father did not allow anyone to visit, and he was surrounded by palace maids and eunuchs, and there was not even anyone who could speak. At this time, when I saw Ruyi, the previous bit of depression had long been gone, and I was only happy and excited.
I haven't seen her for a few days, Ruyi only feels that her cousin is not quite right, and she sees her eyes shining, as if she sees bones with the rhubarb raised by her second brother.
The prince asked the pastries she had brought to the table and had tea show her.
Ruyi looked at him with a look of a 'madman', this guy is usually very arrogant, and his eyes can't grow to the top of his head, how many times have he been in the East Palace, but he has never been treated like this.
"Someone finally came to talk to me, you don't know what I've been holding back these days."
What he said was sincere, and Ruyi saw that he was indeed pitiful, and he was also a little sympathetic for a while, but the words in his mouth were still unkind, "You eat and drink well in your own palace, what is there to say." It's just a few days to lock you up. ”
When the prince heard her say this, he said, "If you hadn't caused trouble, would I have ended up like this?" ”
"Didn't I hear that girl say your 'Zhu' surname that time, I couldn't get angry for a while! You were there at the time, so should you let her say that? ”
The prince glanced at her impatiently, "I've heard it all, so naturally I can't get her good." You don't need to get out of the way. ”
Ruyi also got angry, jumped down from the chair, and said, "Okay, I don't need me, I'm still in a hurry, I did something wrong!" Please also ask the prince not to be like me, and I will go to my uncle and aunt to ask for sin! ”
Seeing that she was really angry, the prince's attitude softened, and he hurriedly stepped forward to hold her back, and said in a soft voice: "Good Ruyi, I just said it seriously, I know that you are angry for me, for my good." ”
Ruyi pouted, "It's not for you, it's for my uncle and aunt." But she didn't rush out anymore, and was pulled back by the prince.
The prince was bored, thinking of a way to find a topic.
Ruyi hasn't had anything special these days, and the most special thing is probably that I went to the bachelor's house to see Runrun.
I heard that she has a new friend, and the prince is also very novel. Both of them are the kind of people who can barely talk to outsiders except for their own siblings. The difference is that the prince is because of his identity, and Ruyi is because of his temper.
Ruyi briefly talked about Runrun's identity, but didn't talk much about the rest. It's rare for her to have a caring little friend, so she doesn't want to share it with others!
The prince had an impression of the two sisters, Runrun and Zhenzhen, especially when he heard that Zhenzhen was one of his mother's favorite objects, so he was even more concerned.
"The little fat man you said is the older of the sisters, right? Do you know the younger one? ”
Ruyi shook his head, "I'm only good with Runrun, and I don't like their sisters very much." ”
The prince sighed, "That little girl is indeed quite interesting, you should pay more attention." ”
Ruyi is small but not stupid, she thinks that this attitude of her form is quite special, although she doesn't know why, but if she looks back and asks, she can say something.
