Xu Han took Xu Yilian and hurried back to Xu's mansion in a carriage.

As soon as she entered the mansion, she called the housekeeper Xu Sen through the curtain and asked, "Where is the master?" ”

Xu Sen is now married to Xu Han's personal maid Mei Qing, so he is very loyal to Xu Han's family, he bowed, stepped forward and approached the car window and whispered: "The master made an appointment with the prince and young master Lan, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Dong, the eldest master of the foreign family and the second master of the foreign family to go to Jinmingchi to drink and listen to music!" "The eldest master of the foreign family is Han Qingmin, the eldest brother of the Han family, and the second master is Han Qingyang, the second brother of the Xu Han family.

Xu Hanshi thought for a moment and stopped talking.

Xu Yilian glanced at her mother, a little worried in her heart, so she reached out and touched her mother's hand: "Mother, what happened?" ”

Xu Hanshi didn't want to block his daughter, so he forced a smile and said, "What's the matter!" ”

looked at her daughter gently, and said: "Yilian, you have time to accompany your second sister more recently, your father-in-law and Prince Qing are very close, your second sister's words can make your mother-in-law treat you better, even your mother-in-law will be a little more restrained!" ”

Xu Yilian lowered her head and sighed in her heart, and said softly: "I know it, mother." ”

The carriage continued along the road, turning a corner and disappearing into the lush flowers.

Xu Tinghe came back drunk.

He pulled his legs and went to the Sunset Residence, wanting to find Xinna's concubine Cuihong Wencun one or two, who knew that as soon as Lu Dao walked outside the door of the inner courtyard, he was pulled by Xu Han's personal maid Mei Ying: "Master, Madame, please come over if you have something urgent!" ”

Xu Tinghe looked at Mei Ying's watery eyes and bulging little breasts with a smile, looked at it from top to bottom, and said in his heart: This Mei Ying is not bad!

He nodded, and followed Mei Ying to Qingxin Courtyard.

Xu Tinghe sat on the couch casually, and when he saw a plate of cherries on the small kang table, he pinched and ate them one by one.

Xu Han's retreat from the waiter, looked at Xu Tinghe, and said straight to the point: "Master, the princess invited me over today!" ”

Xu Tinghe spit out a cherry pit and put it on the small kang table: "Cancan? What does she ask you to do? ”

Xu Hanshi took a deep breath and held back her disgust at her husband: "She let me read the letter you gave her!" ”

Xu Tinghe said "oh" and continued to eat cherries.

Xu Hanshi held back his anger and said, "Cancan is not unable to give birth, why do you want to stuff a woman next to the prince?" Is your niece reliable, or is the chess piece of the Lan clan reliable? Sir, weigh it! "The Han family is her maiden family, and she also protects her mother's family, but I feel that what the Han family has done in this matter is really not authentic.

Although Xu Tinghe was still eating cherries, he was thinking about things in his heart. Of course, he knew that it was ridiculous for him to stuff a woman next to Prince Qing for the Han family and the Lan family, but the Han family was noble and the Lan family was powerful, so he wanted to stammer, so he happily agreed to the other party's request. Now it's really hard to ride a donkey, so I have to try my best to stammer.

In addition, he felt that he was also thinking about Fu Yuchen.

Han doesn't say much, his father-in-law, Han Saijiu, is born all over the government and the opposition, Fu Yuchen wants to be the crown prince, and the support of public opinion is inseparable; And the Lan family is a century-old gate valve, and has actually controlled Zhengzhou and its surrounding areas for many years, and even Emperor Yong'an had to use the power of the Lan family to make Lan Shaoqi the prince and young fu to help Fu Yuchen.

Xu Tinghe felt that Fu Yuchen was young and didn't know anything, and he didn't want the women of the Han family and the Lan family, so he would help Fu Yuchen and handle this matter for him!

He looked at Xu Hanshi and said coldly: "Madame just take care of the inner house, don't worry about the outside affairs; Cancan's side, let me say, Madame doesn't have to mix! "Women's families really have long hair and short knowledge

Xu Hanshi was angry, raised his voice and said, "Do you know what Lu Dao Cancan called me to say?" She said that if I can't solve it, I'll leave it to her and let her do it! "When Cancan makes a move, who knows what will happen to Lu Dao!

Xu Tinghe said contemptuously: "She was only able to marry into the Guogong Mansion by relying on me, why, her wings are stiff?" Want to go solo? ”

He took a sip of the teacup, put down the teacup and looked at Xu Hanshi, the corners of his mouth bent down arrogantly: "Without me to help her plan, she will have a way to continue to go up in the future and become the crown princess and emperor——"

"Don't say these disobedient things!" Xu Hanshi hurriedly interrupted Xu Tinghe's tirade and said, "Let people hear it, what can I do!" ”

Xu Tinghe looked proud: "As long as my niece and son-in-law are willing to listen to me, this is a matter of morning and evening!" He got some news from his teacher Ma Mingyu, knowing that there would be a big shock in the Liang Dynasty in the near future, and at that time, in order to consolidate his position, Cancan would have to contact foreign officials to cultivate his strength, and there were still many things to ask him for help!

Xu Hanshi saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he had to sigh and say no more.

When Xu Tinghe went out, she ordered the little maid to call Mama Qin over, and told Mama Qin to go to Hanfu to say hello to her sister-in-law, and she would go back tomorrow to meet the eldest brother and second brother.

After Mama Qin left, Xu Hanshi sat on the couch, supported with one hand, couldn't help but feel sad, lowered his head, and big tears dripped down.

Mei Ying and the other maids didn't dare to persuade them, so they quietly told the little maid Mei Yun to invite the eldest and young grandmothers over.

Cui's has been pregnant for more than nine months, and she has a big belly, so she can't go out.

She was walking around under the grape trellis of Qingsongju by the maid, and after listening to Mei Yun's words, she said, "Mei Yun, you go first, I'll go over later!" ”

After Mei Yun left, Cui ordered the maid to take a piece of paper on which she had written, and took the two maids to Qingxin Courtyard.

Xu Hanshi was crying, and when he heard the maid report that the young grandmother was coming, he hurriedly pulled the handkerchief and tried his tears, hid the handkerchief in his sleeves, straightened his back, and tried to relax the expression on his face.

Cui Shi couldn't salute anymore, but he made a slight bend of his knees, and was picked up by Mei Ying: "Grandma, sit down quickly!" "Although the daughter-in-law has to stand in the rules of her mother-in-law, but the Cui family is so belly, and the lady will not care.

Because he had the heart to comfort his mother-in-law, Cui Shi took the piece of paper from the maid's hand and gave it to Xu Hanshi with a smile: "Mother, you want me to name the child in the belly, the daughter-in-law really doesn't have this ability, scratching her ears and cheeks for a long time, Fang wrote these few, or you can see how about it first!" ”

Although Xu Hanshi was sad in his heart, he didn't want to save his daughter-in-law's face, so he took the paper and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Let's just take a name that means, where is it accurate?" When the time comes, you'll have to name your father and Yipeng. ”

Cui's mind is sensitive, and he doesn't ask much, just chatting and laughing with his mother-in-law. Seeing a smile on her mother-in-law's face, she said goodbye and left - Cui's stomach is now too big, and she is tired and panicked after sitting for a while.

The big girl Mei Ying sent Cui's out of the city.

When he arrived at the gate of Qingxin Courtyard, Cui Shi asked Mei Ying: "What happened to my mother-in-law?" ”

Mei Ying looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she said in a low voice: "Grandma, the lord wants to send two beauties to Prince Qing, and the princess called the lady over, and when the lady came back, she quarreled with the lord." ”

When Cui's heard this, he couldn't help frowning-the princess has such a good relationship with the prince, and the father-in-law is a relative of the mother's family, is it really appropriate to do this? I'm afraid it's not appropriate!

She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, and then she had a plan in her heart.

In the evening, as soon as Cui Shi told Xu Yipeng about it, Xu Yipeng was immediately annoyed: "Is Daddy's brain in water?" How could he embarrass his second sister like this? ”

He was about to go to Xu Tinghe Theory immediately.

Cui Shi hurriedly grabbed him: "Xianggong, can you beat your father?" ”

Xu Yichun thought about it for a while, and felt that he couldn't do anything about his father, so he said: "I will give my mother tomorrow and go to see the princess!" "Since Daddy's side can't make sense, he starts from Cancan's side and plans for her to fulfill his brother's heart.

Cui Shi nodded and looked at her husband with a smile: "The concubine will also go with you." ”

Xu Yipeng looked at his wife's belly, and almost blurted out the words of opposition, but looking at his wife's eager eyes, he had to be silent.

The inner courtyard of Prince Qing's mansion was full of interesting people, all standing there to coax Prince Qing and Princess Xu to be happy.

Xu Cancan leisurely leaned on the brocade pillow on the brocade couch, watching Bai Lian and the two little maids kneel on the carpet under the brocade couch to put a flower crown on her.

Although he was wearing a white silk shirt and a blue gown and a white skirt uniformly distributed by the palace, the white lotus was still as beautiful and elegant as the white lotus out of the water. She knelt on the carpet, holding the princess's silver crown in her hand, carefully decorated on it, and placed a lot of hairpins and hairpins in the jewelry box next to her, and a lot of flowers in the flower basket, including plain moon flowers, small jasmine flowers, snow-white gardenias, and a few orchids.

Xu Cancan looked at it and smiled.

She knew that tomorrow was the Dragon Boat Festival, and according to the custom of Daliang, on this day, she would wear a flower crown, wear a sachet, tie colorful silk threads on her wrists, ankles and necks, wash her face with green leaf water, and then smear it with realgar, and then she could go to the canal to play.

But thinking that he had brought a fragrant flower to swagger through the market, Xu Cancan couldn't help but smile.

Mama Dong and Mama Chen stood on one side, and seeing that the princess was happy, they were also very comfortable in their hearts.

Mama Chen saw the princess smiling, so she joked: "Princess, the small kitchen has prepared all the ingredients for the Dragon Boat Festival, and on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, hemp leaves will be fried, and rice dumplings, eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs and garlic will be boiled, do you want to take a look?" ”

Xu Cancan nodded: "Let Zhu Yan take a look!" "This Dragon Boat Festival is hosted by the small kitchen in the inner courtyard that Mama Chen is in charge of, and it is a matter of the whole house, she thinks it is better to let Zhu Yan take a look.

Mama Chen smiled again and asked, "Princess, what flavor of zongzi do you like to eat?" ”

Xu Cancan smiled: "In our hometown, there are only glutinous rice and red date zongzi and glutinous rice and red bean zongzi, and I only love to eat these two kinds of stuffed zongzi." ”

Mama Chen was disappointed when she heard this: "The meat dumplings are also delicious, it's a pity that the princess doesn't eat them!" ”

Xu Cancan took a sip of the hair tip that Zhu Yan had just offered, and felt that the taste was bitter but the aftertaste was sweet, so he took another sip, and then said: "May 13 is the birthday of the prince, you have to prepare in advance!" ”

looked at Mama Chen again: "How is the preparation in the small kitchen?" ”

Mama Chen hurriedly replied: "Fu Song, the outer housekeeper, has explained, all the banquets are sent by Yan Lou, the big kitchen outside is only in charge of tea, and the small kitchen in the inner courtyard is only in charge of snacks." ”

Xu Cancan nodded.

May 13 is Fu Yuchen's nineteenth birthday, she must handle it well, she has already assigned various responsibilities, the people who accept the acceptance are Zhu Yan and Biyun, she only needs to supervise the general.

At this time, Bai Lian had already decorated the flower crown, got up and curtsied, and presented the flower crown.

Xu Cancan fiddled with the silver corolla in his hand, looking at the ornaments such as plain flowers, tortoiseshell combs, flower-and-bird-shaped hairpins, white stones and pearls embedded in the hairpins, he felt very novel, but he was embarrassed to wear them - although they were all plain, they were too fancy, and besides, they were too heavy.

She brought a red gold dragon and phoenix crown when she went to the palace, but although it was heavy, it was more serious, not as fancy as this one!

Seeing that the princess was fiddling with the flower crown with interest with a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, Zhu Yan smiled and said, "Princess, the slave maid came to comb your hair and put it on again, right?" ”

Xu Cancan laughed horrifiedly: "No, no, I'll just take a look!" ”

Biyun smiled and said: "Princess, you can actually wear it, tomorrow the slave maid will match you with an elegant dress, it must be very beautiful!" ”

Xu Cancan played with the flower crown and just laughed.

Bai Lian whispered: "Princess, the slave will get up early tomorrow morning to pick fresh flowers and decorate the flower crown for you." ”

Xu Cancan was about to speak, and Mother Hu reported through the door curtain: "Princess, the captain is here!" ”

"Let him in!" Xu Cancan slowly straightened his back and said, "You all stand down!" ”

Mama Dong glanced at Zhu Yan and Biyun, who were still standing beside the princess, with some envy, and quietly withdrew with Mama Chen with the maids and the maids.

Xu Cancan quietly watched as these people withdrew.

Of course, she understands that these people are making amends, making Xiaoyi flatter her and obey her, just because she is Fu Yuchen's princess.

However, why not be happy if you can be happy?

As soon as Shui Han came in, he smelled the fragrance of flowers, but the smell of this floral fragrance was a little complicated. After he saluted, he looked up at the princess, and found that she was holding a crown full of plain flowers in her hand, and then he understood the reason, lowered his eyes and reported: "Princess, I was ordered to continue the investigation, and I got some news." ”

He raised his eyes and glanced at the princess, and found that she was looking at him with watery eyes and listening attentively, so he lowered his head and continued: "Han Meiniang and Lan Ruixia now live in the Zhuangzi of Xu's Mansion by the canal outside the city, accompanied by two little maids. ”

Xu Cancan saw him pause, and said, "Is there any other news?" ”

Shui Han said again: "The little maid next to Han Meiniang is the daughter of Dong Minli, the daughter of Dong Cunfu, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and the little maid next to Lan Ruixia is the granddaughter of Lan Cai, the butler of the young master of the prince's mansion. ”

Xu Cancan fell into deep thought: Could it be that the uncle has already hooked up with the Han family, the Dong family and the Lan family, the Han family and the Dong family are simple, they are just ordinary high gates, but the Lan family is one of the four major gates of the beam......

She thought for a while, and when she saw that Shui Han was still waiting, she asked, "Have you reported these to the prince?" ”

Shui Han was silent for a while, and then said: "I was worried that the princess would be difficult to deal with alone, so I reported to the prince." ”

This answer was expected by Xu Cancan.

She intuitively felt that Shui Han would be loyal to her, and after Shui Han investigated, she felt that the matter was complicated and notified Fu Yuchen, which was also for her own consideration.

Xu Cancan was a little moved in his heart, so he nodded and said, "Zhilu Dao, you have worked hard, go down and have a good rest!" ”

Shui Han looked up at her, and saw that she had approval in her eyes, and a light smile on the corner of her mouth, exquisite and elegant, knowing that she was not angry because of her own assertions, so she quietly retreated. After some investigation, he found that Xu Ting and Xianmei had a lot of inside information, and he was afraid that the princess would be involved, so he went to report to the prince.

He just didn't expect the princess to understand his painstaking efforts.

Shui Han walked on the corridor in the inner courtyard, smelling the fragrance of gardenias on both sides of the corridor, thinking of the princess's trust in him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of anger, and his nose was a little sour.

Fu Yuchen accompanied Emperor Yong'an to the early dynasty today, and followed him back to the Chongzheng Palace, serving Emperor Yong'an and taking medicine.

After taking the medicine, Emperor Yong'an urged Fu Yuchen to go to the imperial study to correct the recital: "Achen, during this period of your expedition, there are too many court affairs accumulated, so go quickly!" ”

Fu Yuchen looked at him calmly, feeling a little strange in his heart - since Emperor Yong'an fell ill, he had always been a little clinging to him, how could he urge him to leave today?

He glanced at Huang Lang as if unintentionally, and then looked at Emperor Yong'an: "Father, do you really need to serve your son?" ”

"Go, go, go!" Emperor Yongan smiled and urged him to leave.

Fu Yuchen had no choice but to leave suspiciously.
