When Shangguan Wan'er was ordered to rush to the Taoguang Garden in the south of Xuanwu Gate, Princess Taiping's ceremonial team was already in full swing.

In the crowd, Shangguan Wan'er saw that the princess's nurse, Mrs. Zhang, was standing in front of the porch and ordering the palace people to carry the loaded utensils, so she hurriedly stepped forward, pulled her skirt as a salute and smiled: "I haven't seen you for many days, Auntie is even more blessed, Her Royal Highness the princess can be in the house?" The concubine was ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to send the princess back to the workshop with the ceremony. ”

When Mrs. Zhang saw Shangguan Wan'er, her expression was slightly embarrassed and distant, and she barely squeezed out a smile: "Her Royal Highness the princess is still appeasing Xiaolang, please wait outside the corridor of Shangguan Cairen." ”

With that, Mrs. Zhang hurried to the inner hall. Shangguan Wan'er was not standing under the corridor, and when she saw the female official holding the palace book, she stepped forward to take the palace book and hurriedly took a look, and then began to count the palace people and items who were going to follow the princess out of the palace before entering the court.

In the inner hall, Princess Taiping was wearing a plain dress and dress, with no powder, plain face and thin face, only a pair of eyes were more prominent, but she didn't have much brilliance, deep and introverted.

She hugged her infant son, and bent down to patiently persuade her eldest son Xue Chongxun, who was pouting and making awkward noise: "Ah Lang, don't be sad, we are going home today, although the scenery here is good, it is not our family garden after all......"

At this time, Mrs. Zhang, the nursing mother, walked in and reported to Shangguan Wan'er to wait outside the corridor.

Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's name, Princess Taiping's eyes flashed with a hint of disgust, handed the child in her arms to the palace people, and walked to the window and sneered: "That slut still dares to approach me?" If she hadn't tricked me into entering the palace, why would the family be ......?"

Speaking of this, her face was already full of hatred, and her eyes were slightly red.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang stepped forward and stroked the princess's back: "The injury will inevitably hurt the body, the situation has reached this point, and His Royal Highness should cherish himself for Lang Jun and the ladies." After all, the cheap maid is walking in the royal service, and she often serves around, since the princess hates her, she just can't see her, there is really no need to be upright. ”

As she spoke, she took a few steps back, took the arm of the young man Xue Chongxun and said with a smile: "Ah Lang, come with the concubine, take a look at your precious playthings, have you missed any of your precious playthings?" If we haven't returned home for a long time, won't you miss the utensils you left in the house? ”

Hearing Mrs. Zhang say this, Xue Chongxun quickly forgot the sorrow of leaving, counted his toys with his fingers, and rushed out of the hall with his legs raised to check it in person.

Mrs. Zhang also came out later, and saw that Shangguan Wan'er was already counting the personnel, and she didn't plan to speak when she stepped forward, but after thinking about it, she still stepped forward and said with a smile: "In and out of the noise, Xiaolang is crying, Her Royal Highness the princess really has no time to summon her, please forgive me." ”

Shangguan Wan'er just smiled after hearing this, and said yes.

At this time, Nayan Wu Chenghei also rushed here, followed by more than thirty strong eunuchs and several tall and gorgeous Xuan chariots.

Shangguan Wan'er stepped forward to salute, Wu Chengsi dealt with it absentmindedly, and then walked into the hall quickly, and after a while, there was a fierce noise in the hall, and then Wu Chengsi withdrew, and his face was a little blushing.

He stopped under the corridor for a long time, beckoned to Shangguan Wan'er, and advised: "Hurt things are sad, human affection is inevitable, there are Shangguan talents to settle down, I will lead the crowd before the ceremonial drive." ”

It wasn't until the evening that Princess Taiping packed up her journey, and the princess boarded the Xuancha surrounded by palace maids, and the team set off to Xuanwu Gate.

When he walked out of the Xuanwu Gate, Wu Chengsi had already led the crowd to wait here, and hundreds of elite knights behind him saw the princess driving out of the palace gate, so they rode their horses in line to guide the street.

It was not too early to leave the palace, and when the procession arrived at the Xuanren Gate in the east city of the palace, the street drums had already sounded on the street.

Qinghua Fang and Lide Fang, which are close to Xuande Gate, are the most prosperous areas on the north bank of Luoshui, and it is inevitable that many people will gather in front of the gate at this time, making the street crowded.

"Clean the street quickly, don't stop Her Royal Highness the princess on the way!"

Wu Chengsi gave an order, and the hundred cavalry sergeants in front of him rushed out on horseback, waving horse whips and wooden sticks to disperse the pedestrians congested on the street, and the pedestrians were driven to both sides of the road.

"No wonder people say that power is moving, and the joys and sorrows of life and death are only in a moment!"

On the way, Princess Taiping saw the majestic posture of Wu Chenghe, who was leading in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh to Mrs. Zhang, the nurse who was also in the car.

"It's just that you have to take advantage of Her Royal Highness the princess to borrow power, His Majesty the God Emperor's holy family......"

Mrs. Zhang replied casually, seeing that Princess Taiping's face became ugly, and she sighed again: "The living need to focus on the present, and Her Royal Highness the princess should not be sad and lonely!" As Wu Nayan said, what was the situation more than ten years ago? I'm afraid I never dreamed that there would be today's scenery! Although Lord Lang's fate is weak, the children left behind will still be taken care of by the princess after all. Since the Holy Favor is undiminished, and you are ashamed, why do you ...... Your Highness?"

"Shame? If she is really affectionate, how can she ...... All I can covet is a woman's body, harmless to her, so that she can be gracious. ”

When Princess Taiping said this, tears flashed in her eyes, and she leaned her head on Mrs. Zhang's shoulder, and secretly sobbed: "Auntie is right, I am not like her, there is no human affection, and I am called a lonely widow!" For the sake of the children in front of you, you shouldn't be sad and indulge! Everything comes to deceive me and laugh at me, after all, I need to be strong myself to not let people see a joke from beginning to end! ”

muttered softly, but her eyes gradually became sharper, and there was already blazing brewing under the sad and weak appearance.

The old residence of Princess Taiping is located in the Guande Fang on the west side of Tianjie, the emperor is afraid that the princess will see the old injury, in the first year of Yongchang, he specially ordered to build a new residence for the princess in the southeast side of Tianjin Bridge, Shangshanfang, the provincial servant bureau, and the official office. This time, the princess left the palace and was about to move into the new mansion.

Walk through the East Street of the Imperial City, turn to the south side of the Imperial City, and then cross the Tianjin Bridge to Shangshanfang. At this time, the sky was completely dark, and there were no natural pedestrians on the heavenly street, but in front of the West Gate of Shangshanfang, there were already officials of the temple and Yongchang County Order.

Seeing the current Nayan Wu Chenghe, the officials all rushed forward to meet him, Wu Chengsi stopped to greet the officials for a while, but Princess Taiping's car drove straight into the workshop without the slightest pause.

When Wu Chengji dealt with these welcoming officials and rushed to the princess's new residence again, the princess had already entered the mansion. When he walked through the front hall and was about to go to the middle hall, he was stopped by the princess's nurse, Mrs. Zhang, in front of him: "Her Royal Highness the princess ordered the old concubine to thank the princess for the gift and send it back to the palace. ”

Hearing this old woman's blunt words to drive away the guest, Wu Chenghei was ashamed, and was silent for a moment before humming again: "Because I was ordered by His Majesty the God Emperor, I didn't work to thank you." Now that the princess has returned to the mansion to live in peace, there will be no more trouble. ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, only walked a few steps and then looked back and said: "There are relatives in the square who live side by side, and if there is a shortage in the house, just go straight to the notice." ”

Mrs. Zhang saw Wu Chenghei leave, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, during the period of being in the ban, she also heard rumors that the god emperor did not want the princess to be widowed for a long time, and wanted to match the princess with Wu Chenghei.

Aside from others, Mrs. Zhang thinks that this is not bad, although in terms of character style alone, it is difficult for Wu Chengsi to shoot horses and Xue Shao, the former concubine. But after all, he has won the favor of the god emperor, and he is in a high position, if he can be a family, the princess will naturally be able to worry about the future.

But she also knew that this was a very difficult arrangement for the princess to accept, the princess was already strong, and now she has become a little withdrawn and stubborn due to family troubles, and she will not accept it.

Walking all the way back to the middle hall, Mrs. Zhang saw that the princess was receiving Shangguan Wan'er in the hall, with a pleasant demeanor, and there was no disdainful disgust before. She was slightly stunned, but she still quietly stepped forward to report that Wu Chengji had left, and then retired to arrange various settlement matters.

"My children are entangled, and I don't have any friends to talk to in the boudoir. Only the people who are familiar with the talents, but in the past few months in the ban, the talented people rarely come to visit, which is really sad. ”

Princess Taiping took Shangguan Wan'er's hand and sat at the table, with a little resentment in her close tone: "Now that I have returned to the outer square, the courtyard is even more deserted, I hope that talented people can cherish the old feelings, often come and wander, don't let me often lack guests at the table." ”

"The concubine also hopes to be able to be with Her Royal Highness the princess often, it is difficult to steal in her spare time, and I am afraid that she will not be able to occupy it with grace and pleasure with her master, and she will be tired of seeing her for a long time."

Shangguan Wan'er replied with a smile, and there was a little twist in her heart, she and Princess Taiping were close in age, and they often had contact because of the Divine Emperor's use, but they were just familiar with each other.

There is a huge difference in the position of each other, and the small intention is only to ask for one not to be resentful. Even if there is any meager affection, I am afraid that it will be consumed in the old things that were summoned to the palace a year ago.

Even if Princess Taiping was angry with her, Shangguan Wan'er didn't dare to complain and defend whether it was reasonable. The extraordinary enthusiasm of the night made her a little overwhelmed.

Although Princess Taiping warmly entertained guests, Shangguan Wan'er still did not dare to stay outside the palace beyond the limit, and saw that it was getting late, so she stubbornly left.

When Shangguan Wan'er came out, the smile on Princess Taiping's face disappeared, and after asking the children to sleep, she sat down with the candle shadow.

Mrs. Zhang wondered why the princess was so indifferent to Wu Chenghei and showed her closeness to Shangguan Wan'er, but she couldn't help but ask after all.

"Inherit his heirs, and fight the luckily. He has a holy family to rely on, and I am not weaker than him, so I don't have to pretend to be resigned and wronged myself. What's more, he is surnamed Wu, and I am the daughter of the Li family, so it is not a family after all. Although Shangguan is a remnant of the criminal family, he often walks in front of His Majesty, and he has the power to lend me. In the future, family affairs need to be autonomous, and it is inevitable to borrow the strength of the group. ”

Before she was in the ban, she was full of sorrow, and she was not in the mood to sort out human affairs. But as she entered the workshop and came to this strange new environment, her feelings became profound, she was no longer the little lady who could be willful and carefree, everything had to be listed in her mind and thought carefully, so that she would have a completely different attitude towards Shangguan Wan'er.

After a pause, she said in a deep voice: "Auntie still remembers the orphans of the second brother I saw in the teaching workshop last year, and it turned out that those three children had already left the cabinet. Shangguan has said a few times, and this criminal woman has a bit of extraordinary concern for my nephews. Later, Aunt Fangye made an inquiry, and if she could be respectful, she could tell them to come to visit and make friends. That San Lang is obedient and righteous, but he is extraordinary and impressive, and he can play with my children. ”
