Chapter 154: Gentleness

Just as Xu Youshan walked outside Xie Jing's study, she stopped and asked Haijian who was guarding outside, "Where is the prince?" ”

Haijian saluted Xu Youshan and said, "Back to the princess, the prince is now in the study, talking to Mr. Lang Yue and them. ”

Mr. Lang Yue, can also be regarded as a well-known Confucian in the Shendu, although he is not as good as Mr. Yi An of the Tai Academy, but he is also the No. 1 person with a good reputation in the Shendu, so literati like Mr. Lang Yue are often invited to the mansion by dignitaries and nobles to be guests, in order to show their knowledge and taste, so now some literati led by Mr. Lang Yue are chatting in Xie Jing's study, this reason is also reasonable, at least through the mouth of Haijian and Xiang Feng, when it reached the ears of Emperor Zhou Hui, It's a clue that doesn't have a handle at all.

is not serious, drinks and has fun all day long, recites poems and writes lyrics, isn't this the appearance of a gentleman, isn't it exactly what Emperor Zhou Hui wants Xie Jing to become?

Therefore, Xie Jing has been moving more and more in this direction recently, and the heroic rumors that he often gathers some well-known literati to Jiang Chun to drink and have fun are also about to spread all over the imperial capital, but fortunately, Xie Jing will only go to such a famous building as Jiang Chun, not those places of wind and moon, otherwise it is estimated that Pei and Xu Yourong would have come to "care" about her a long time ago.

"In this way, then I won't go in to disturb the interest of the prince and Mr. Langyue, I will go and specially order the kitchen to prepare this wine and food, you have to serve the prince well, you know?" Xu Youshan instructed with a sincere face.

"Yes, my subordinates know." The sea sword responded.

Xu Youshan nodded with satisfaction. He held Liu's mother's hand, and walked back to Bowei Houyun with a calm look, and on the way. She also really sent Chu Dai to the big kitchen in person, so that the kitchen girls in the big kitchen were on standby, as long as the prince wanted to eat, the kitchen girls had to hurry up and serve it.

But in fact, now Xu Youshan, the princess of Chu, is just a princess with her name in the Chu Palace, and the power in this mansion is still firmly in the hands of Zhao Mama, she is a princess like an ornament. In addition to respecting her in the palace, who cares about her, not to mention Xu Youshan's identity as a concubine. It's also a hard wound, and the servants don't say it clearly, but they don't look down on her behind their backs.

But this is such a princess of Chu, Xu Youshan usually talks about her from the servants in the palace. I really don't really care. Anyway, to put it mildly, Bowei Houyun has been allocated to her by Xie Jing, except for the companion room she brought from the Xu family, there is no one in the palace, this defense is like an iron bucket Bowei Houyun, as long as Xu Youshan is inside, she is really comfortable to the end.

And there is also a small kitchen in the clouds after Bowei, and Xu Youshan occupies the name of the princess. Bowei Houyun's purchase was not carried out by Mama Zhao, and Mama Zhao went to talk to Xie Jing about it. But he was brought by Xie Jing with a word, so the purchase in the clouds after Bowei was purchased, and in the future, Xu Youshan himself directly decided. And because of this incident, Xu Youshan was also spread by the people in the palace for a period of time, saying how much Xie Jing loved Xu Youshan and how much she loved Xu Youshan, but for her, even Mama Zhao's words were refuted.

But God knows that this has a half-dime relationship, this is all at the beginning, Xie Jing and Xu Youshan decided to risk the world's disapproval of the fake marriage, and it has already been discussed, so this one by one, in fact, Bowei Houyun is Xu Youshan's small world in the Chu Palace, in which Xu Youshan is really comfortable, and if it is out of the Bowei Houyun, in the Chu Palace, Xu Youshan has really not interfered in the middle feed of the Chu Palace, and Xie Jing has no intention of handing over the power of the palace to Xu Youshan... …

Therefore, everything Xie Jing and Xu Youshan did really made everyone in the house dizzy at the beginning, and for a while they thought that Xie Jing loved Xu Youshan very much, and it was not said that Emperor Zhou Hui would make everyone lose their eyes The marriage giving behavior was what Xie Jing begged for, otherwise with Xie Jing's status as the eldest son of the emperor who occupied the throne and occupied the eldest son, how could Emperor Zhou Hui give a concubine as a concubine?

But this kind of speculation didn't take long for the wind to change again, because even after Xie Jing married Xu Youshan, after the first month of the rule that he could only rest in the main room, Xie Jing's overnight time in Ramie Luo Zhai and Luohua Xuan was still the same as before, so another rumor spread in the palace, that is, Xu Youshan was not Xie Jing's favorite, she was really given to Xie Jing by the old and mediocre Emperor Zhou Hui, otherwise how could he still love Wang Nishang and Leng Xinyun like this?

There are rumors in the Chu Palace's palace about whether Xu Youshan is favored or not, but wave after wave is being discussed, but with the ambiguous relationship between Xie Jing and Xu Youshan, the people in the Chu Palace's mansion are also divided into two factions, one group supports Xu Youshan is favored, and the other group supports Xu Youshan is not favored, but Wang Nishang and Leng Xinyun have been in the Chu Palace's mansion for a long time after all, so there are more people who feel that Xu Youshan is not favored, for example, when Chu Dai went to the big kitchen to relay Xu Youshan's instructions, The casual expressions of those kitchen ladies are not well concealed.

And because of this, after Chu Dai came back from the big kitchen, she was so angry that she became angry.

"Okay, ignore them, as long as they're not out of line, don't pay attention to them." Xu Youshan looked at Chu Dai's puffing little appearance, smiled and persuaded her, and then said, "Come on, Chu Dai, go and let people boil water, I'm going to bathe." ”

"Princess, are you going to rest?" And Chu Dai, who was still angry, was stunned for a moment after hearing Xu Youshan's order, because except for yesterday's "accident", Xie Jing has been spending the night in the clouds after Bowei recently, and Xu Youshan has always had to wait for Xie Jing to come back before falling asleep, no matter how late it is, Xu Youshan will always wait for Xie Jing, unless Xie Jing sends someone to say that he wants to stay in the empty mountain residence, but now Xu Youshan is actually going to rest?

Not to mention that it is just the end of the hour, it is a little too early, just saying that Xu Youshan will no longer wait for Xie Jing to come back is enough to make Chu Dai stunned for a moment, and then the corners of Wu Lin's and Liu's mother's eyes jumped.

"Hmm. Today, I went to Dongyang Lane to visit my eldest sister, and I was already tired, and I was also a little tired. Let's take an early break tonight. Xu Youshan bent her eyes, and said in a good mood: "Besides, the prince and Mr. Langyue are estimated to be together until late today, so I will rest first, if the prince really comes to Bowei Houyun after a while, you can just wait carefully." ”

Xu Youshan said it easily, and her tone was the same as usual. Hearing this, Chu Dai couldn't figure out what Xu Youshan's true mood was, so Chu Dai had no choice but to nod and get up to let people prepare for Xu Youshan's bathing. As for the anger that was angered by those kitchen ladies in the big kitchen earlier, it has long been thrown away by Chu Dai now.

In the room, after Chu Dai left, Wu Lin and Liu's mother stood beside Xu Youshan without saying a word. And Xu Youshan also seemed to be really tired at this time. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, his eyes were lightly closed and he rested on the pillow behind him, and the room was quiet, only the sound of the wick on the three-tailed emerald bead lampstand with the floor-to-ceiling tendrils and wings "snapped" gently echoed in the room.

Xu Youshan took a break, Wu Lin and Liu's mother were waiting, and when the eyes of the two met, they could see a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes. Especially Liu's mother, she has been following Xu Youshan's side today. Naturally, she knew that Xu Youshan was in Xu Yourong's Weizhou Courtyard, but she slept all morning, and she slept very sweetly, how could she be sleepy now?

And in the past, it was not for nothing that she was more tired than this, but Xu Youshan had been waiting for Xie Jing to come back, although Xie Jing really didn't necessarily know that Xu Youshan had been waiting for him to come back before falling asleep recently, but a few of them knew it, but she could wait at that time, why couldn't she wait now?

Of course, Wu Lin and Liu's mother both know what the problem is, but Xu Youshan's current performance makes the two of them silent, in fact, from the beginning of Xie Jing and Xu Youshan's fake marriage, it is destined to be an unbreakable knot

Today's Bowei Houyun, the lights went out very early, at the end of the time, the lights went out in the clouds after Bowei, although this is not too abnormal, but the people who always pay attention to it here, but they are keenly aware of the difference, especially in the ramie Zhai, in Jinmeng reported to Leng Xinyun, saying that the lights had been turned off early in the Bowei Houyun, Leng Xinyun directly frowned slightly.

"Didn't Xu Youshan go to the Empty Mountain Residence before?" Leng Xinyun asked.

"Back to you, yes, the princess went to Kongshanju around the time of the day, but when she heard that the princess was talking to Mr. Langyue, the princess went back, and did not let people go in to report, but when she went back, the princess also personally asked Chu Dai to go to the big kitchen, so that the cook was careful to wait for the prince's orders." The news that Jin Meng sent their eyeliner back was reported word for word in a cold heart.

"Hey, then that's weird, you said that she ran to the empty mountain residence again, but left without informing the prince, and just sent someone to the big kitchen to offer some courtesy?" Leng Xinyun said with a sneer: "What is going on in the minds of our little princess? ”

"I can't say, our little princess, we just don't know how to please the prince." Jin Meng said with a smile.

"Hmph." But when Leng Xinyun heard this, she suddenly snorted coldly, "She doesn't know how to please the prince?" I think she knows pretty well, didn't you hear what our people found out later? After the prince and her were escorted back by Liang Dadu, she had a high fever for several days, and the prince was guarding her beside her without undressing. ”

It's okay not to say it, this one, Leng Xinyun's silver teeth are about to be crushed by herself, what kind of shit luck did Xu Youshan step on? Unexpectedly, he didn't die with the prince, and then he lived together together, the prince's feelings for her must no longer be the same, I didn't see the old immortal Zhao Mama and the lowly maid Agarwood, it was because he had suffered life and death with the prince, was he still by his side when he was in danger, so the prince was still so different from them until now.

And after the attack on Maple Leaf Valley, it is estimated that in the heart of the prince, Xu Youshan will be a different person again.

Leng Xinyun's first time, this is the first time Leng Xinyun didn't hold back her anger at Xu Youshan, why did that lowly maid and have such good luck? If it was replaced by her, she could also live and die for the prince, why didn't this kind of opportunity fall on her?

Leng Xinyun has always been charming and moving. The plump lips that have been pouting with a cold smile are actually covered with a rare layer of gloomy color, which makes the cold hairs behind Jinmeng, who knows Leng Xinyun no better, stand up. And she took a step back silently, until she completely left Leng Xinyun's sight, and her body was completely attached to the wall, Jin Meng exhaled a little, but her scalp was still numb.

And in the palace of the king of Chu this night, in addition to the empty mountain residence that sang all night. Almost all of them are sleepless people.

The next day, when the sky was bright, the talents of Kongshan Curie were scattered. Xie Jing sent the guards in the Chu Palace, and sent Mr. Lang Yue and the others back to their mansions one by one, and after everyone left, Xie Jing's red lips immediately pursed. Narrow eyes that smile all night. Immediately, a cold mist filled up, and his fingertips rubbed his faintly painful eyebrows, Xie Jing asked Wen Ge, who had been standing beside him, "Did the princess come last night?" ”

"Yes, around midnight." Wen Ge replied with a respectful voice.

"Then I asked you to send someone to Powei Houyun to spread the word, did you order it to go down?"

This time, Wen Ge paused before saying: "I have ordered to go down, according to your order, when you and Mr. Langyue have not yet finished the banquet, I will send someone to Bowei Houyun to convey your words to the princess." Can...... But when the man who sent out came back and told him that he had gone. The princess is already resting. ”

Wen Ge said a little cautiously, and after hearing the words, Xie Jing only paused his fingertips slightly, then nodded, signaling that he understood, and then asked Wen Ge to let people prepare, he wanted to freshen up and bathe.

Hearing the song and retreating, Xie Jing was the only one left in the room, and after a long silence, a soft murmur was inaudible.

After a night of singing, Xie Jing was really tired, and after he freshened up and bathed, Mo Ru came on time to check the wound like him, and after making sure that it was okay, Xie Jing rested in the empty mountain residence, but after the surroundings of the empty mountain residence were unusually quiet for a while, the clouds behind Bowei were also moving, under Xu Youshan's instructions, Wu Lin and Liu's mother were preparing again, preparing for Xu Youshan to go out.

Yes, today's Xu Youshan is still ready to go to Dongyang Lane under the pretext of visiting Xu Yourong, but today before she went out, she deliberately ran to Kongshanju and said that she wanted to see Xie Jing, but after hearing the song and saying that Xie Jing had fallen asleep, when she asked Xu Youshan if she wanted to go in to wake up the prince, Xu Youshan hurriedly shook her hand, and then said a lot of nonsense that the prince needs to rest well and take care of his body, so he swaggered out of the palace in a carriage and walked towards Dongyang Lane.

……

……

Recently, Xu Yourong is hiding from Nie Suhyun, as long as she thinks of what Nie Suhyun said to her that day, she will be confused, so she has been sick at home recently, no matter who invites her, she doesn't go out, anyway, she is sick, how good this reason is.

But this reason makes it easy for Xu Yourong to refuse those invitations that are not easy to refuse on weekdays, but this also makes it easy for some people to use the excuse that she is sick, so she wants to visit more, and runs to Weizhou Courtyard all day and night, and the diligent Xu Yourong is about to roll her eyes, such as Xu Youshan, who is now extremely conscious of occupying the soft couch and eating on it.

"Eh, Sister Shan'er, just now when Wan'er was about to tell someone to go to the kitchen to get this rock sugar lily cake, I asked you if you wanted it, didn't you say you had no appetite? So what do you mean by eating it all by yourself now? Xu Yourong was hungry, gently tugging at Xu Youshan's ear and said angrily.

"Ouch, eldest sister, I didn't want to eat it just now, but then I thought about it again, and Wan'er hasn't already sent someone to serve it again, just wait a while." Xu Youshan said with a wry smile.

"It's easy for you to say it, you are not the one who dares to be hungry."

"Eldest sister, you're the best, you definitely won't care about this little plate of rock candy lily cake with me, right?"

"You don't come much, honestly, haven't you been coming a little too often lately?" Xu Yourong began to look at Xu Youshan with some suspicion and said, no matter how rare the opportunity is, Xu Youshan shouldn't have come here early in the morning for the past few days, and then stayed until the afternoon to go back, but no matter how Xu Yourong looked at Xu Youshan's expression, he also found that there was nothing unusual, and Xu Youshan's words were really reasonable, so Xu Yourong couldn't figure it out for a while, but the doubts were not eliminated.

"Alas...... Eldest sister, as for you, aren't you just a few plates of rock sugar lily cakes, can you not be so stingy, you don't want me to come," Xu Youshan puffed out her cheeks and replied a little angrily, as if Xu Yourong's question to her just now was because Xu Youshan accidentally ate her "a little" pastry, which caused Xu Yourong not to touch those rock sugar lily cakes at all, which made Xu Youshan stop coming again.

"You don't change the topic for me, even if you eat a few large buckets of rock sugar lily cake, I won't be stingy, but the problem is not here, you have been a little wrong in the past two days, besides, are you eating 'a few plates' of rock sugar lily cake? Count for yourself, count well. Xu Yourong looked at the mess on the soft couch, and then pinched Xu Youshan's white little ears, and shouted: "That's already a dozen dishes, isn't it 'a few dishes'?" ”

Well, Xu Youshan didn't expect that she would be able to eat so much today, so after she couldn't beat Xu Yourong, the two of them started fighting, and Weizhou Courtyard was lively in the laughter of the two of them.

It's just that in fact, the two of them are still worried about the same thing now, that is, of course, the marriage of Xu Mingwen and Zhai Yu, and I don't know what Zhai Yu said in the letter sent to Xu Mingwen from Huanchuan yesterday, will it make Xu Mingwen happy or sad? Or will it make Xu Mingwen even more hesitant, so that she still missed this god-sent fate in the end?

For this reason, Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan are very worried, but they are not swaggering to go to Qilinfang to find Xu Mingwen, otherwise why should they be so worried, then they will directly enter the Qiao Su Courtyard and torture Xu Mingwen to extract a confession, if she resists stubbornly, then Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan have "torture" that can make Xu Mingwen suffer, I am not afraid that she will not recruit from the truth, how can it be like now, I can only stare here, and guess what kind of letter Zhai Yu wrote to Xu Mingwen.

After all, for Zhai Yu, although Xu Youshan and the others greatly admired this young and bloody young god of war, but if they wanted to say that they knew anything, it really couldn't be considered deep, so Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan really couldn't guess exactly what kind of trust Zhai Yu would write to Xu Mingwen at this moment.

"You said that Sister Wu is really true, what can we discuss together, how can you eat alone so quietly, it's really unkind." Xu Yourong gritted her teeth and said helplessly, but the metaphor in her words made Xu Youshan disagree, this seems to be not the slightest resemblance to "eating alone", right?

"Eldest sister, that's a letter written by the eldest son of Zhai to my sister-in-law, even if my sister doesn't want to show us, it should be ...... It's so undeserved, how can my sister be so selfish, she actually wants to eat alone by herself, it's really unkind to the extreme. When Xu Yourong turned his head to look at Xu Youshan, the "gentle and kind" came to an unparalleled gaze, and Xu Youshan was very familiar with the times.

"Well, Sister Shan, you have really grown up, you can be so sensible, eldest sister, my heart is very relieved." Xu Yourong looked at Xu Youshan teachable and said.

"That's that, it's all big sister, your teaching is good." Xu Youshan silently said sorry to Xu Mingwen a hundred times in her heart, but I believe that Xu Mingwen, who already knows Xu Yourong's power very well, can understand her.

Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan have been counting Xu Ming's wife in Weizhou Courtyard all day today, and looking at the angry Xu Yourong, Xu Youshan has also been nodding and agreeing, saying how Xu Ming's wife is so unkind, and she has been counting until the afternoon.

Originally, Xu Youshan still wanted to stay in Weizhou Courtyard for a while, but Pei Shi had just sent someone to say that it was not too early, and he still asked Xu Youshan to go back to the Chu Palace. (To be continued.) )
