'P'**WXC'P''P'**WXC'P'eighty-eight
On April 18, the big day of the eldest princess's wedding, there were carriages and horses in the palace to pick up Zhou Baolu early in the morning, saying that the eldest princess ordered her to come down, and several of her sisters who were good friends with Lu had to go to the palace to marry her, which was the meaning of her mother's sisters.
How thoughtful is it? Zhou Baolu had already changed her clothes, so she took the maid and walked to the door, only to see that it was the third prince Xiao Hongqing who came into her yard.
No matter where the Xiao family goes, they are handsome and shining, he is holding a chubby little boy, the child is wearing the same prince clothes as him, but I don't know how much smaller the road, the accessories are neat, and he also wears a small gold crown.
Xiao Hongqing has a cold and handsome face as usual, his body is straight, and the little boy also has a fat face, but he twists his small body, holding Xiao Hongqing's neck with both hands, and looks at Zhou Baolu curiously.
Xiao Hongqing of such a size appeared at the same time, Zhou Baolu's eyes suddenly lit up, ouch, it looks so interesting!
She remembered that Xiao Hongcheng told her that although His Royal Highness seemed to be the most difficult one to get close to, hard and straight, but for some reason, this group of little chubby golden branches and jade leaves in the palace were very close to him, and there were cats and dogs in his yard, and occasionally Xiao Hongqing was seen sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, and the snow-like cat jumped into his arms, and the long-haired big dog lay at his feet, occasionally raising his head and putting his head on his knees.
It turns out that the iron-blooded third master is particularly attractive to this fat mass creature?
At this time, a ball of hairballs ran over as if rolling, rubbing around at Xiao Hongqing's feet. Zhou Baolu couldn't help but look at it: It's really interesting! 's expression, by the way, their family blessing guards were given by the third master.
Xiao Hongqing just glanced down at the Fu guard, and then nodded to Zhou Baolu: "Sister-in-law." โ
The little guy also followed suit, nodded solemnly, and called in a milky voice: "Sister-in-law." โ
How many words were choked in his throat, and these two words immediately embarrassed Zhou Baolu, and his face turned red. Ouch, it must be that Xiao Hongqing's eyes were too interesting just now, and he was waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.
Xiao Hongcheng said that he would repay him, but he really didn't wronged him!
Zhou Baolu muttered in her heart, but she had to correct it seriously: "Your Highness is wrong, just call me cousin, you can't make such jokes." โ
Xiao Hongqing had no expression on his face, but the meaning in his eyes was obvious, and he nodded: "Cousin." He also introduced: "This is my fourth brother." โ
Zhou Baolu stepped on his feet to touch the little fat hand: "It turned out to be the Fourth Highness." โ
The Fourth Highness was shy, hugged his brother tighter and tighter, twisted his body and didn't touch it, Zhou Baolu had to forget it, or Sakura had eyes, went to the house and took out a red lacquer cherry eight treasure orange petal box, Zhou Baolu grabbed a large handful of pine nut candy to the fourth prince Xiao Honglan, and said with a smile: "It's rare for the Fourth Highness to come in person, and I didn't prepare anything in a hurry, okay to eat some sugar?" โ
Xiao Honglan looked at his brother.
Xiao Hongqing said solemnly: "He has rotten teeth, and his mother doesn't allow him to eat more sugar, only two pieces." โ
Zhou Baolu didn't care, a large handful was stuffed to Xiao Honglan, and said with a smile: "Don't tell Niangniang, you eat quietly." When you're done, you come to me, and if you want something else, come to me. I can get it all! โ
Xiao Hongqing didn't care about teaching, anyway, it was given by his sister-in-law, so he couldn't control it. And Xiao Honglan was bought by sugar, nodded, and the little fat hand reached out and touched Zhou Baolu's face.
She was actually molested by this little guy!
Zhou Baolu took his hand and squeezed it funny, the fleshy feel of the child's palm is particularly soft, especially Xiao Honglan's shyness, which is even more cute.
Xiao Hongqing said at this time: "The prince sent me to pick up a few young ladies in various mansions in person, cousin, please come with me." โ
Zhou Baolu said: "What is this for?" โ
Xiao Hongqing said: "My grandfather entered Beijing, and my father was very gracious, and allowed Lan'er to go out of the palace to live in my grandfather's house for a few days. I'm here in person, so I'm safer. โ
How can there be such a way? Although the guest personally invited by the eldest princess is naturally the most noble lady in the imperial capital, she can't afford to be picked up by the third prince in person.
Zhou Baolu's big eyes were full of questions, although he didn't speak, Xiao Hongqing also felt that this was simply the same level as Xiao Honglan's ability to make people surrender, so he said: "The young lady invited by my sister also has my future second sister-in-law, the county lord of Taichang." โ
"Oh~~~~~" Zhou Baolu stretched her voice and agreed, indicating that she understood! Xiao Hongqing's slender eyes revealed a warm smile, and his brother said that his sister-in-law was extremely penetrating, and she really lived up to her reputation.
With a single name, she could hear the string song and know the meaning of the elegant, and immediately understood the meaning of the eldest brother.
Zhou Baolu said: "Sister Taichang almost had an accident before, it is really amazing, I am still scared when I go out now, and I have checked people again and again, for fear that something like this will happen." โ
The case of the county lord of Taichang did not make a fuss in the imperial capital, and the emperor intended to let it go, so there were naturally countless ways to press it down, so those people were sent to Shuntianfu, and they were killed in prison not long after, and Shuntianfu concluded that the thieves wanted to kidnap the county lord to blackmail gold and silver, because the thieves were dead, there was no follow-up treatment, and there was no more turmoil.
Now it seems that Xiao Hongcheng is not very happy that his father has let go of this matter so gently.
Taking advantage of today's wedding day of the eldest princess, firstly, to express his importance to his sister, and secondly, the prince personally escorted the car to the high-ranking households.
There aren't many fools in these mansions, who can't read them? This kind of private discussion is like an undercurrent, which is more difficult to suppress than the disposal on the surface.
The crown prince's attitude is tough, and if he makes waves again, he is obviously dissatisfied with his father's attitude towards this matter.
He is now the crown prince and the rightful heir to the throne, which is different from before, that is, between brothers, there is also a difference between monarchs and ministers.
Now, the brother clearly wants to change to a powerful daughter-in-law of his mother's family, what is the purpose, it is naturally obvious, this shows that the carriage and horse want to โกโก the action, he just wants to express dissatisfaction.
If his father doesn't dispose of him, then he will give the second prince a slap, of course, he is also very restrained.
Of course, the emperor hopes to have an obedient prince who can reassure him, but he will definitely not like a weak prince who does not dare to speak up even if his brother clearly covets the crown prince.
Therefore, the attitude of the emperor is one thing, and the attitude of the crown prince is another.
Thinking too much about the intentions of the emperor, only the emperor's intentions are concerned, as a courtier, it is about okay, but as a prince, this proportion needs to be more carefully mastered.
It's not okay to be disobedient, and it's not okay to be too obedient!
Zhou Baolu pondered Xiao Hongcheng's statement all the way, this angle is really very ingenious, and he doesn't need the emperor's statement at all, but it does make waves.
The entire imperial capital will soon know about it, and the crown prince has already known about it, and he is very dissatisfied.
Since the second prince was slapped hard, he naturally knew more about it.
The palace is very lively, first in the front hall and the back of the palace to have a banquet, and then send the princess out of the palace, choose the princess, the duchess and other high-grade foreign women in the blessed people to send relatives, so the princess herself invited sisters, are just the first palace to watch the ceremony, and then go to the princess's mansion with the elders.
The county lord of Taichang, Wang Jinxiu, the two quasi-princesses, have already arrived, and their wedding dates have been set, respectively in the second half of this year and the beginning of next year.
Zhou Baolu took a look, the third princess was not enthusiastic about the county lord of Taichang, her expression was cold, it seemed that Concubine Qing did not look down on this county lord of Taichang in the first line.
However, the county lord of Taichang has been taught upright since he was a child, but he didn't care about it, his expression was natural, he sat very upright, and he didn't talk much with people, just frowned slightly, and looked at Concubine Wu who was walking around in the hall like flowers.
Concubine Wu is naturally dressed up very grandly today, there is no concubine in the East Palace, as the side concubine of the East Palace steward, the prince's own sister is married, she is naturally coming, but this son looks like a general manager, but it is a little more conspicuous.
For a while, he sent someone again: "The ladies have been sitting for a long time, and it's time to change the hot tea, why doesn't anyone think about it?" Such a slack! On such a day, you dare to be lazy, don't think that on a happy day, no one cares, turn around and be idle, and don't peel your skin one by one! โ
There were two little palace maids who ran out in fright, and hurriedly changed the tea for the young ladies, and the brows of the county lord of Taichang were even tighter, and said, "Who is this lady?" Why are you talking like this in this Yuquan Palace? โ
Wang Jinxiu on her left, Zhou Baolu on her right, both of them are actually not familiar with her, but she doesn't seem to be familiar with anyone in this room, so when she asks such a question, neither of them is easy to answer.
Zhou Baolu gave Wang Jinxiu a look, which means: Your sister-in-law, don't you take the opportunity to get closer? I also have some friendships.
Wang Jinxiu replied to her: Say what about your side concubine, you should take care of it.
Zhou Baolu wanted to roll her eyes, so these are two people, and they are not good people!
Wang Jinxiu sat still, Zhou Baolu couldn't delay it any longer, people said this, neither of you spoke, this is too embarrassing, deliberately embarrassing people?
Zhou Baolu had to smile and said: "This is Concubine Wu of the East Palace, today is a good day for the eldest princess, the prince is the elder brother of the in-laws, and Concubine Wu should come to serve." โ
The name of Concubine Wu's favorite concubine in the East Palace, now the imperial capital is obviously known to everyone, and the lord of Taichang County said: "This palace is full of orders from various prefectures inside and outside, and inside is our boudoir lady, she is a side concubine, she shouldn't have come in to serve, but now she is in charge of the East Palace, maybe something needs to be raised, where can you not serve outside?" Unorthodox! โ
Zhou Baolu felt that he was really embarrassed to say anything, so he smiled and said: "This is originally a matter in the palace, we are just guests, and it has nothing to do with us, Sister Taichang is angry." โ
Wang Jinxiu covered her mouth and chuckled.
The county lord of Taichang is about the daughter of the boudoir in the end, although she can't get used to it, but it's not her own family's business in the end, so it's not a good thing, but she has a mother who is more square than her sitting outside.
Mrs. Tian's widowhood should not have participated in such a happy event, but because the county lord of Taichang was given to marry the second prince, she was already a legitimate royal daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Tian and the emperor became in-laws.
Concubine Wu shuttled around the house like a butterfly, asked about everything, had to stretch out her hand to dip it, and then loudly scolded her subordinates, and at one time personally went to support the old lady of the Dunmin County Palace, which was very eye-catching and active.
Mrs. Tian endured about an hour of tea, and then she couldn't help it: "Today is a good day for the eldest princess to descend, and the side concubine Niangniang should have served later." โ
If you want to say that she is straight, it is true, other people's things are not in accordance with the rules, she also has to speak, but she said that she does not know how to be flexible, and she knows that she is carrying the eldest princess of Pingning, and asked: "Does the princess think this is the rule?" โ
The eldest princess of Pingning is the most faceable princess today, she has been noble all her life, and naturally she does not put a newly favored princess and concubine in her eyes, but she didn't take it seriously. โ
Concubine Wu was stunned, she was almost slapping her head in the spring breeze, and suddenly her face turned red, and she couldn't help but have tears in her eyes, and she wanted to cry: "I, I ......"
Mrs. Tian said: "The side concubine can enter the palace to serve, the rules and etiquette are naturally understood, even so, it is natural to follow it, the prince is not only the prince, but also the brother of the princes, no matter whether it is external or internal, it is a model for the prince, and the side concubine Niangniang is not only the future side concubine of the prince, but also the side concubine of all the princes to set an example." โ
The room was silent, and I only heard Mrs. Tian's tirade teaching Concubine Wu: "Today is the happy day of the eldest princess's wedding, and the concubine is rushing to serve, it can be seen that there is filial piety, but there are the most guests today, and they are all noble ladies and misses, and the side concubine Niangniang should naturally serve according to the rules, and should not come here, you will serve in the back, can't the princess and prince see your filial piety?" The more times like this, the more respectful you are, and on such a happy day, what are you crying about, are you afraid that you will not be unlucky? โ
Concubine Wu didn't even dare to cry, she just wished that there was a crack in the ground for her to drill down, in front of so many princesses and princesses, she didn't even dare to refute, let alone jump to scold the old pious woman, and no one in the room of noble ladies played a round for her.
But the third princess came over and said with a smile: "Is the thing that my sister went out to take in the room over there, Niangniang, come with me to count the points." โ
was able to relieve her and pull her out.
When I arrived at the back yard, there was no one left, and Concubine Wu cried: "What's wrong with me, I have no face like this, and the prince originally ordered me to serve the princess......"
The third princess hurriedly wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "Don't cry, this time people come and go, let people see, and there is gossip, in the end, it is a good day for my sister, it is a grievance, and I have to endure it. โ
Concubine Wu knew that this was the truth, so she had to endure it.
The third princess persuaded again: "This is also a matter of no law, you don't go over there again, in fact, these people only hold the rules to talk about things, now there is no princess in the East Palace, everything is in your hands, if you don't come out, and say that you take the big, horizontal and vertical are their reason, in the end, it is the prince's own sister, there is no reason why the East Palace maid can't get ahead, Sister Wu said but?" โ
Concubine Wu had a wooden face, and after a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "It's nothing more than ...... It's just because I'm a side concubine......"
The gap in identity is so insurmountable, and today she has been taught a lesson.
The third princess hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "This is also a matter of no choice, I treat Sister Wu as my own sister, and now I really think about Sister Wu, so I persuade this sentence." That's not what I should say. Sister Wu's current situation, in fact, is not difficult, just when the crown princess has not yet entered the palace, the prince is favored, and it is the matter to rob Mr. of the eldest son. can't occupy the heir, occupy a long word, in the future, except for the crown princess, who can surpass you? Sister Wu is also from a family background, and she knows that there are also three imperial concubines in our dynasty who are in the middle palace, but these three imperial concubines were all made princes because their sons were made princes, so they could get to that point. โ
Concubine Wu couldn't help but say, "Good sister! It can be seen that you are really good to me, you are thinking about me like this, if I still don't understand, am I still a person? But the rules in the palace are tight, and it is not child's play to enter the medicine in the sleeping bureau, I just have that heart, and I don't have that life. โ
The third princess showed a meaningful smile: "How can there be a certain amount of things in this world, there is a medicine to avoid children, and there is naturally a medicine to give birth to children, look at ......."
Before he finished speaking, a housekeeper came over in a hurry: "Niangniang is here, the prince will wait for Niangniang to open the warehouse to get something." โ
The words of the third princess are not easy to say again, Concubine Wu was very anxious, and hurriedly said: "There are many people here, and I am also busy, I will be idle when I go back, and I will talk to you again." โ
When the third princess saw that she had already entered the palace, she knew that she was going to hold it more and more, so she smiled and patted her hand gently: "Don't worry, let's take our time." โ
And he went in by himself.
Looking at the back of the third princess, Concubine Wu showed a meaningful smile and followed the housekeeper.
