Chapter Ninety-Two: After Po Wei Houyun
"If you go back to the princess, everyone will settle down, but your dowry is huge, and I'm afraid it won't be able to clean it up for a while." Wu Lin and Chu Dai replied reassuringly when they saw that Xu Youshan was not in any major trouble except for Xu Youshan's expression.
"The dowry that my aunt prepared for me is indeed a little more, and you can't do anything if you can't clean it up for a while. But it's not a matter of piling up the dowry like this, and tomorrow you will try to vacate all the big houses in the courtyard, and then take all my dowries in. Xu Youshan remembered Pei's expression when she was preparing these dowries for her, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl.
"Vacate all the big houses in the courtyard for your dowry, princess, and not enter the general treasury of the palace?" After listening to Xu Youshan's instructions, Wu Lin asked with some surprise.
"No need, our Royal Highness the King of Chu has a lot of net worth, but it will scare people to death, so he can't look down on my dowry, and he also told me just now, this Bowei Houyun in the main house compound, I will have the final say in the future, but out of here, the affairs of this palace are not something I can interfere in, so my dowry is placed here, and we will live here in the future." Xu Youshan touched the South China Sea pearls like a baby's fist in the makeup box, and said quietly.
"Yes."
But since Xu Youshan said so, Wu Lin's family didn't say anything more, and even Chu Dai on the side was behind Xu Youshan's words, so she and Wu Lin's family responded together, but about other things, Wu Lin's family and Chu Dai didn't ask or say much.
"By the way, what about Mother Liu and Yuedai?" Xu Youshan asked.
"Back to the princess's words. Mother Liu and Yuedai are still guarding your dowry, do you want to call them in? Wu Lin replied.
"Oh, not really. It's just that there's no need to be so careful, just arrange a few people you trust to take turns guarding after a while, this Chu Wang's Mansion is actually very safe. Xu Youshan pursed her lips and said.
"Yes." Wu Lin's Chu Dai said.
After that, Xu Youshan instructed Wu Lin and Chu Dai to send someone to boil water, and after taking a clean bath, Xu Youshan lay on her big bed with a big smile. There was no intention of waiting for Xie Jing to come back. And when it was late at night, Xie Jing came back again, but he was full of alcohol. It seems that at the previous banquet, those people didn't let Xie Jing go just now, which really poured him a lot of wine.
However, when Xie Jing was helped in by Agarwood alone, Xu Youshan was not the slightest surprised. Instead, he greeted the agarwood after seeing the scene where she had changed her clothes and was lying on the bed. The anger in his eyes was about to burst into his eyes, and he smiled, and said, "It's really troublesome for you, but now you can hand over Your Highness to me and get out." ”
Agarwood didn't expect Xu Youshan to be so brazen, but before she could speak, Xie Jing, who had always seemed to be drunk, suddenly stood up straight, and then glanced at Agarwood with a light smile, and Agarwood swallowed all the words back into her stomach. Bow down and retire.
"Your Highness, do you want to bathe?" And after the agarwood retreated. Xu Youshan was not surprised by Xie Jing's sudden awakening, but directly asked him if he wanted to freshen up and bathe.
"Okay." Xie Jing was not polite, and after sitting down on the chair, he looked at Xu Youshan with Erlang's legs crossed.
And Xu Youshan took the initiative to skip Xie Jing's drunken and even more beautiful color, turned around and called out the door: "Chu Dai." "Since Xu Youshan has already married Xie Jing, when Xie Jing is there, Chu Dai and the others can't be in the house anymore when they are vigiling for Xu Youshan, so they all retreated outside the house at this time.
"Princess, the slave is here." Outside the house, Chu Dai responded.
"Go and let people boil water, and Your Highness will freshen up and bathe." Xu Youshan commanded.
"Yes."
Xu Youshan has now freshened up and bathed, and she has already taken off her wedding robe and put on a comfortable robe embroidered with pure white summer flowers. Therefore, Xu Youshan at this time, with a small face, wearing a wide embroidered robe, and her long undried hair was also softly draped behind her, this scene was seen behind Xu Youshan, and when Xie Jing's eyes were in Xie Jing's eyes, there was suddenly some inexplicable light in Xie Jing's beautiful narrow eyes. But this kind of light has nothing to do with amazement, it has to do with emotion - this little black charcoal is still a child at all, how could he marry a child!
Xie Jing supported his forehead with one hand, and his eyes were a little cold and made a mistake again.
But no matter what, things have come to this point anyway, and it is useless to think about it, so when Chu Dai came to report that the hot water was ready, Xie Jing also walked straight to the ear room. And when Xie Jing came out again, what he saw was Xu Youshan, who was already pecking at rice, on the chair he was sitting on.
"You go in and sleep."
"Huh?"
Xu Youshan was woken up by a cold voice, so she hurriedly went to the voice, only to see that Xie Jing had already taken a beautiful bath, and the water around him was so thick that Xu Youshan's eyes were about to sting. And this is undoubtedly the best sobering soup, Xu Youshan once again slandered Xie Jing's beauty countless times in her heart, before glaring at his chin and asking, "Your Highness, what did you just say?" ”
Xie Jing didn't notice Xu Youshan's abnormality, he only thought that this little black charcoal was in a daze, so he said again: "You go in and sleep." ”
"What about you?" Xu Youshan tilted her head and asked.
“…… I'll go to the Warm Pavilion. Xie Jing looked at Xu Youshan for a while and said. But when she is confused or in a hurry, Xie Jing really can't get used to the habit of "you, you, you", no matter how long it takes, but now he is really tired, and he doesn't want to worry about this little black charcoal anymore.
"Is this good?"
Xu Youshan was still a little guilty, and was thinking about whether to move to sleep in the warm pavilion by herself, but Xie Jing had already turned around and left directly, which made Xu Youshan dumbfounded for a while, and she didn't care anymore, and happily climbed onto her cloud smoke bed to meet Zhou Gong.
Early the next morning, when the fish belly was in the sky, the time had not yet arrived, Xu Youshan was tragic, in the case of the tired people the day before, Xu Youshan had already woken up automatically before she was still in the middle of the morning. This thunderous and untouchable good routine really makes Xu Youshan lie on the bed now, and her eyelids are so heavy that she can't open them. But when my mind gradually cleared, I really gritted my teeth.
"Knock Knock"
But at this moment, a slight sound came from the window, which made Xu Youshan concentrate.
The sound of "knock knock" rang out again.
And this time, Xu Youshan also heard movement in the house, which came from the warm pavilion where Xie Jing was, and it seemed that Xie Jing was also awake. But why did he get up so early? Who would be looking for him so early, on the second day of the wedding? Xu Youshan was thinking about these questions strangely, and by the way, she stretched out her ears to listen to the movement outside. But it seemed that Xie Jing and the man did not communicate much, because it was only a moment before Xu Youshan heard the sound of Xie Jing closing the window again.
So fast?
Xu Youshan was wondering when she heard movement again. It was the sound of someone walking inside. Xu Youshan was startled, but fortunately she slept in her clothes, so she got up, and then looked at Xie Jing, who had bypassed the bergamot blue screen, and threw a bag of things at her.
"What is this?" Xu Youshan was surprised.
But Xie Jing ignored her this time, but walked to the pavilion again, so Xu Youshan muttered "weird" and opened the package. Then a loud "bang" exploded in his head, and Xu Youshan's face turned red at a flying speed. It was so red that it could drip blood—and inside the package was a piece of white silk.
Although Xu Youshan has passed the ceremony this year, in fact, her ceremony has not yet arrived, but Emperor Zhou Hui gave marriage, and the Queen Mother always mentions intentionally or unintentionally that there are few royal grandchildren now, which is the state of the royal Xie family's sluggishness, so Xu Youshan and Xie Jing's cave room candle night should have been made up after she and Xuan, at least in the eyes of outsiders, it was to be made up.
But because of the Queen Mother's statement, Emperor Zhou Hui suddenly asked Xie Jing and Xu Youshan to spend candle night in the cave room, which was to be implemented on the day of marriage, which caused Xu Youshan to worry for a long time, but Xie Jing told her that it was okay.
And because of Xie Jing's words, Xu Youshan really put her mind at ease, put this matter behind her and continued to do other things. But I didn't expect that she didn't pick it up last night, and it wasn't Xie Jing, it is estimated that when the two female officials who stayed outside the door all night came to collect the white silk, Xu Youshan knew that the catastrophe was coming.
Xu Youshan blushed so much that she was about to drip blood for a long time before she jumped out of bed again, lifted the futon aside, and then on the bed that had been ravaged by her to the shapeless, she looked for the white silk that was put on the bed by the two female officials outside the door for a long time, and put it into the bottom layer of her cage, and then spread the white silk that Xie Jing handed her to her with a red face.
And after everything was done, Xu Youshan ran to the soft couch on the side with her futon and nested, but after a long time, the red on her face still did not recede.
……
……
At the end of the day, outside Xie Jing and Xu Youshan's happy room, there was a knock on the door, and at this time in the house, Xie Jing and Xu Youshan had already prepared, so Xu Youshan went to open the door, and Xie Jing sat at the agate white jade phoenix pattern table inlaid with red stones, and when the female officials came in to salute him, Xie Jing only smiled gently.
And Xu Youshan stood aside with a red face and didn't speak when the female officials went into the room to get the white silk, waiting for the female officials to see the white silk and show a smile, Xu Youshan's head was about to hang to the ground.
"The princess is overjoyed, on the first day of the wedding, please remember to return to the palace on time with the prince to thank you." The female officials congratulated Xu Youshan with a smile, and told her to remember to thank Emperor Zhou Hui for a while.
"I'm tired of the two of you, the prince and I must enter the palace on time to thank the saint and the queen mother." Xu Youshan replied shyly.
In fact, as long as these two female officials get the white cloth in their hands, in fact, the task will be completed, so it is inconvenient to delay at this time, and the two female officials will also say goodbye to Xie Jing and Xie Yan and return to the palace to resume their lives. And as soon as the two left, Xu Youshan collapsed on the chair, and her heart was lucky!
"Half an hour later, enter the palace." But before Xu Youshan could take a breath, Xie Jing said to Xu Youshan with a smile after the two female officials left.
"So fast?" But Xu Youshan, who was already in the habit of changing Xie Jing's face all the time, couldn't get used to it, looked at Xie Jing with an expressionless face at this time, and didn't feel strange and asked.
"Well, that's the rule, you should hurry up and prepare." After Xie Jing finished speaking, he got up and left the house for Xu Youshan to freshen up and change clothes, and he went to the empty mountain house not far from here to change clothes, and this empty mountain house is Xie Jing's study, and it is estimated that it will also be the place where Xie Jing will live for a long time in the future, after all, after the construction of this Chu Wangfu, the main house compound in this mansion will definitely be used as a wedding room for Xie Jing and Xu Youshan.
And then when Xie Jing chose the land to be used as a study, Xie Jing actually chose the empty mountain residence very close to Bowei Houyun, although in the eyes of outsiders, this is Xie Jing's performance of taking care of Xu Youshan, the new bride, but Xu Youshan would be hell if he also believed this statement, and it was also last night when Xie Jing told her that he had built a hidden path in the backyard of Bowei Houyun, leading directly to the empty mountain residence not far away, Xu Youshan knew that Xie Jing was preparing for his separation from her.
After all, the two of them are fake marriages, and they can't see the light of day, so it is impossible for Xie Jing and Xu Youshan not to live in the same room for a long time, so isn't this creating difficulties for the two? Therefore, this hidden path in the backyard of Bowei Houyun is to solve big troubles for Xie Jing and Xu Youshan.
In the future, as long as Xie Jing is going to come to the main house, enter from the main gate, and then go to the empty mountain residence from this path in the backyard, isn't this okay? Xu Youshan was overjoyed.
And after Xu Youshan watched Xie Jing leave Bowei Houyun at this time, she no longer delayed, but hurriedly called in Wu Lin and Yuedai, and asked them to serve her to freshen up and change clothes, and after changing into a round-necked cardigan with embroidered gold trimmed blue pattern phoenix tail dark flower satin, and an apricot yellow peony pattern brocade skirt with plain bottom silk draped skirt, and then put on a set of phoenix wings with six sides inlaid with jade inlaid with seven treasures and gold, Xu Youshan held Yuedai's hand, and walked towards Xie Jing, who was already waiting for her in the courtyard, and entered the palace with him. Thank you to Emperor Zhou Hui and the Queen Mother.
But just when Xie Jing and Xu Youshan took great pains to prepare and entered the palace on time to thank Emperor Zhou Hui and the Queen Mother, something happened that made Xu Youshan dumbfounded.
Outside the Guangming Palace, Xie Jing and Xu Youshan asked to see Emperor Zhou Hui, and the inner supervisor led the way, but after Xie Jing and Xu Youshan entered the Guangming Hall and saw Emperor Zhou Hui sitting on the dragon chair, Xie Jing and Xu Youshan also followed the etiquette system, kneeling three times and bowing to thank Emperor Zhou Hui, and at this time, Emperor Zhou Hui also let the two of them get up with a kind face.
