Chapter 201: Oral Message
Princess? Is it really a princess?
This girl with a hat and coarse linen clothes turned out to be the dignified Princess Huiming?
There are a total of seven princesses in Sheng'an, and the most favored are the eleventh princess Rong'an and the thirteenth princess Huiming.
Rong'an is favored by the queen, and Huiming is favored by Emperor Dezhao, so in terms of actual status, Princess Huiming is even higher than Princess Rong'an.
It's just that the personality of Princess Huiming and Princess Rong'an is very different, if Rong'an is a model for the ladies of various noble families in Sheng'an Kingdom, then Princess Huiming can be said to be a standard negative teaching material.
But this negative teaching material was born in the emperor's family, and it is favored by today's saints, so few people dare to accuse this princess in public.
In addition, this princess rarely appears in front of people as she gets older, so everyone knows very little about her, and ordinary people rarely even hear about it, except that she and the fourteenth prince are twins, they know almost nothing.
But they didn't want to, this princess they knew little about appeared in front of them like this now, and it appeared in a coarse linen dress! What's going on here?
After Mulan finished speaking, she almost turned around and left, and the porter wanted to leave her, but no one dared to stop her, so she had to hurry back to the house to report to the head of the family.
The onlookers were in a commotion, even more excited than talking about the fourteenth prince saving Miss Zhou Fusan in the past two days.
Princess, this is a living princess, a character they may never see in their lifetime, but they have seen it today!
Although the other party couldn't see his face clearly because he was wearing a hood, this did not affect everyone's excitement at the moment.
And what the princess just said was very interesting. He said he was coming to apologize, but why did he apologize? Apologize for saving Miss Zhou Fusan by Muqing Lake that day!
Apologize for saving someone? What is the rationale for this? Everyone was puzzled.
What's even more interesting is what she said, "This has nothing to do with my brother." Don't rely on him! β
Lai?
The Zhou Mansion wants to rely on the Fourteenth Prince? What does this mean?
Everyone just felt that their brains were completely insufficient, and all kinds of speculations naturally followed. pushed the matter of Miss Zhou Fusan's fall into the water in Muqing Lake to a new height.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"My lord, my lord, it's not good!"
The concierge steward kept rushing to the study in the outer courtyard and almost broke in directly.
The pen in Zhou Feng's hand paused, and a drop of thick ink dripped on the paper, leaving an unsightly stain.
Is...... Nothing goes well!
He frowned and put the pen down, simply stopped writing, and pushed the paper aside.
"Let him in."
He said to the door.
The steward hurried in, and as soon as he entered the door, he fell to his knees with a pop.
"Your Excellency. Just...... Just now, Princess Huiming came......"
"Princess Huiming?"
Although Emperor Dezhao doted on Princess Huiming very much, and various rewards for food, clothing, and consumption were always one after another, but that was also a matter in the harem.
In fact, this princess rarely appears in front of people, and all kinds of palace banquets are not attended with the tacit consent of Emperor Dezhao, so ordinary officials have almost no impression of her, and even this title is a little unfamiliar, and the impression is that the thirteenth princess and the fourteenth prince are the children of the dragon and phoenix, and the relationship is not very good.
Seeing that Zhou Feng didn't react at first glance. The steward hurriedly explained: "It's the thirteenth princess!" The thirteen princesses with the title of Huiming! β
A baker's dozen?
The thirteenth princess who is the twin son of the fourteenth prince and the same mother?
"What about people?"
Zhou Feng stood up suddenly.
"People...... The man has gone ......"
The steward said with a sad face.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Madame, ma'am, no!"
On the other side, there were also people hurrying to the courtyard where Mrs. Zhou was in the inner courtyard.
Mrs. Zhou frowned and put down the cup in her hand.
"What's all the shouting about?"
The lady steward walked in. His head and face were covered with beads of sweat.
"Madam, just now, Princess Huiming came over!"
Princess Huiming?
As Zhou Feng's wife. Mrs. Zhou's rank among foreign wives is actually not very high, but because her daughter Zhou Ru used to be Princess Rong'an's companion. Therefore, she went in and out of the palace more often than ordinary foreign women, and was occasionally summoned into the palace by the queen mother to talk.
Women can't talk about state affairs together. The conversation is naturally short, and the queen's parents are naturally those things in the harem, so she has heard this title more often than Zhou Feng.
"Hui Ming...... The thirteenth princess who is the twin son of the fourteenth prince and the same mother? β
She came back to her senses and stood up suddenly: "What about people? β
"People...... The man has gone ......"
The housekeeper's lady said with a sad face.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Miss, Miss, no!"
Qing Dai hurriedly rushed to Zhou Ru's yard, forgot to say hello, lifted the curtain and rushed in.
This girl has been getting more and more unruly lately!
Zhou Ru frowned.
"What's the matter?"
She asked, putting down the headdress she was carefully choosing.
"Miss, just ...... Princess Huiming is here! β
"Princess Huiming?"
Princess Huiming and Princess Rong'an, one is the heart of Emperor Dezhao, and the other is the heart of the queen.
Although the two parties are amiable on their faces and rarely meet, as the companions of Rong'an's faction, they are naturally alienated from Huiming, and even whisper a few bad words about her from time to time.
Princess Rong'an always has to persuade a few words at this time, and everyone will take advantage of the situation to praise a few more words of Rong'an's generosity and decency.
So in the entire Zhou Mansion, it is still Zhou Ru who knows the most about Princess Huiming.
"Your Highness the Thirteenth? What did she come to do? β
Zhou Ru didn't care, and continued to choose the headdress.
The thirteenth princess and the fourteenth highness did not agree, and they had to quarrel when they met all day, although she had not seen it with her own eyes, but she had already heard of it.
Although in the future she will marry the Fourteenth Prince. However, since the fourteenth prince doesn't like this sister, then she doesn't need to like it. There is no need to rush to curry favor.
Qing Dai stomped her feet anxiously, and hurriedly said, "The little guy in the porter said." She just said in front of our door that it was not the Fourteenth Prince who saved you in Muqing Lake that day, but her! β
He also said...... Say you don't rely on her brother! β
"What?!"
Zhou Ru stood up suddenly, his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted.
"No, it can't be!"
She shouted at a high level: "It was clearly His Highness Fourteen who saved me that day!" How could it be her! She is talking nonsense! β
"Miss......"
Qing Dai hesitated and said, "Princess Huiming and His Royal Highness the Fourteenth are twins, will you ...... Admit a mistake? β
Syllable!
Zhou Ru slapped Qingdai and almost fell to the ground.
"Admit mistakes? Will Miss Ben admit her mistake? The man was clearly dressed in men's clothes! How could Miss Ben admit her mistake! β
Qingdai has served her for so many years, and she has never been beaten by her, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Slave maid is speechless, miss, don't be angry. Don't be angry. β
"What about her? Where is she? I'd rather ask why she said that! Why did you rob your brother of the credit and rob your brother's good name! β
Zhou Ru walked out as she spoke.
"Miss," Qingdai hurriedly grabbed her: "It's too late, the person has already left." β
"Gone?"
"Yes, she wore a hat and a coarse linen dress, and she stood in front of our door and opened her mouth to say that she was Princess Huiming. The porter didn't recognize her, thinking she was a madman somewhere. I'm going to beat her away. β
"Princess Huiming was originally going to enter the mansion to talk, but when she saw this, she was annoyed, so the secret guard who followed her injured the porter, and left after showing her waist card."
"Before leaving...... said that she was humiliated in our Zhou Mansion. Since our Zhou Mansion doesn't listen to her, then if you have anything to say, you can enter the palace and say it! β
Coarse linen? Wearing a hood?
Zhou Ru only seemed to have heard these two sentences.
"Ahh
She suddenly exclaimed, "It's her!" It's her! That thief! The robber! β
Thieves? Bandit?
"Miss!"
Qing Dai hurriedly looked around and said in a low voice: "You can't talk nonsense!" β
That's a princess! And she is also the most favored princess of His Majesty!
Zhou Ru knew that she was speechless, and she also covered her mouth. In his heart, he was still indignant, but he was also more sure that the person who saved him must be the Fourteenth Prince and not Princess Huiming.
That Princess Huiming saw death and didn't save her first. How could he ever go back to save her after that? And change your clothes to save her again?
Therefore, it must be the Fourteenth Prince who saved her!
Or...... It was Princess Huiming who saw her fall into the water and didn't dare to save her. So he begged the Fourteenth Prince, who was nearby, to save him?
The more Zhou Ru thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case, and the more proud she became.
"Let's go! Go see Mother! β
She had to tell her mother about this, lest they be deceived by Princess Huiming, thinking that she could not marry the fourteenth prince and become the princess!
However, before she could walk out, Zhou Feng and Mrs. Zhou had already rushed in.
"Dad, mother."
Zhou Ru greeted him with a smile, wanting to say what he was thinking.
"Evil Barrier!"
Before she could speak, Zhou Feng slapped her in the face.
Zhou Ru was beaten and staggered, if it weren't for the little maid on the side to support him in time, he would definitely have to fall to the ground like Qing Dai just now.
"Sir!"
Mrs. Zhou also hurriedly went over to help her, with tears in her eyes, looking at Zhou Ru for a while, and Zhou Feng for a while.
Zhou Ru's whole body was blindfolded, and he stood there with a dull expression.
She has never been beaten since she was a child, except for a few beatings from her husband, and she has never been beaten in front of a room of maids like now.
What the hell is this...... Why?
"Master, Ru'er is also your daughter no matter what she says, how can you be so ruthless!"
Mrs. Zhou cried to Zhou Feng.
"My daughter? My daughter! β
Zhou Fengqi's face turned blue: "I wish I had never had this daughter!" β
"Daddy!"
Zhou Ru cried out in tears: "What the hell did I do wrong!" β
"What did you do wrong?"
Zhou Feng raised his hand and pointed at him, his arms trembling faintly with anger.
"You first annoyed the queen mother and Princess Rong'an by being virtuous in the palace, and then you didn't know the shame and wanted to stick to His Royal Highness the Fourteenth, and Princess Huiming came directly to confront my Zhou Mansion. And now ask me what did you do wrong?! β
"Not really!"
Zhou Ru shouted: "Princess Huiming is talking nonsense!" It is indeed the Fourteenth Prince who saved me! I'm not mistaken! β
"Yes!"
Zhou Feng shook his hand and said: "It's true that it was the Fourteenth Prince who saved you, but it was Princess Huiming who wanted to kill you!" The fourteenth prince was afraid that Princess Huiming would take her life before he rescued you. Because of this, you have a mind that you shouldn't have been, and you want to marry the fourteenth prince and become the princess! Princess Huiming will come to the door! β
If he wasn't sure that the woman wearing the hat was Princess Huiming. There is nothing to doubt about today.
And since Princess Huiming can "apologize" for His Royal Highness the Fourteenth, His Royal Highness the Fourteenth can naturally save people in order to prevent Princess Huiming from taking human life.
Zhou Feng hated to slap himself twice every time he thought of this, if he had figured this out earlier, he wouldn't be so passive now.
He made the same mistake as many people, that is, he only remembered that Princess Huiming and His Royal Highness the Fourteenth did not agree, but he forgot that the two of them were twin brothers and sisters no matter how they said it.
Zhou Ru listened to Zhou Feng's words and was blinded again, it was Princess Huiming who wanted to kill her?
"Why? Why did she kill me? β
She muttered.
"Why? I also wonder why! Although Princess Huiming has a stubborn personality. But it's just a joke with the palace maids, and there are very few rumors of any unhappiness with a young lady of the family! What the hell are you ......?"
Before he finished speaking, someone outside the door hurriedly reported: "My lord, my lord!" β
A servant hurriedly ran in: "The emperor has an edict, announce that you and your wife still have ...... Third Miss, enter the palace immediately! β
Here it comes...... Here it comes!
Zhou Feng slapped his thigh and sighed.
"What a hindrance, what a hindrance!"
He glared at Zhou Ru hatefully, so frightened that Zhou Ru shivered and hid in his mother's arms.
"Sue sΓΉ you. After entering the palace later, everything will follow Princess Huiming's words! Since she said that she was the one who saved people, she didn't want to mention the fact that she let you fall into the water, so she didn't mention it. You think you fell into the lake by accident! She said she saved you, that's she saved you! I don't have a word to say a word! β
Zhou Ru didn't know what she remembered, and she trembled. Shrinking into Mrs. Zhou's arms, she nodded, her face as pale as paper.
"My ......"
Mrs. Zhou stroked her cheek with tears in her eyes: "Mother knows that you have been wronged." But that's a princess after all, we can't afford to mess with it......"
They can't afford to mess with a princess of Rong'an. What's more, it is Emperor Dezhao's favorite princess Huiming.
"Grievance? She's a fart! β
Zhou Feng jumped on the side.
Everything next to his wife is good, but when he encounters something about his child, he can't tell the difference!
A daughter and the entire Zhou Mansion, do you still need to distinguish which is more important?
After scolding, he turned around to leave, and stopped again when he saw Zhou Ruse shrinking and trembling.
"Is there anything you are hiding from us?"
Concealed?
Zhou Ru shuddered again, and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, I, I will listen to your father, and I will wait for a while...... Later, Princess Huiming will say whatever she says, and I will never argue. β
Zhou Feng looked at her, and then nodded: "Change your clothes and pack up, and enter the palace with us later!" β
Zhou Ru nodded, sent her father and mother away, changed her clothes under the service of Qing Dai, and redressed her face to cover the palm prints on her face.
Father just said that Princess Huiming didn't want to mention the incident that caused her to fall into the water, so she didn't want people to know that she almost killed someone, right?
That...... She probably won't mention the things before she fell into the water, only that she met her by the lake and rescued her.
That being the case, those previous conversations ...... I don't think I will mention it......
The words she said were going to kill her whole family, I should, I wouldn't mention it, right?
Probably not, right?
Zhou Ru pinched herself hard and woke up, she couldn't tell her father these words, otherwise her father would kill her immediately to apologize to the royal family.
So, so just act as if that qiΔ didn't happen, just follow the words of Princess Huiming.
She accidentally fell into the water, Princess Huiming passed by and saw her, rescued her, she saw the face of the person in a daze, thinking that it was His Royal Highness the Fourteenth, so these misunderstandings were born.
Yes, a misunderstanding, a qiΔ is just a misunderstanding.
Princess Huiming saved her and left, from beginning to end they didn't say a word, not a word! No! (To be continued......)
