Chapter 256: A Woman, Two Families

After King Rui and Zhang Qing exchanged a few words, Zhang Qing returned to the palace with a few little eunuchs.

As soon as Zhang Qing left, Xiangzhi hurriedly came to report, "Prince, princess, King Hui is here, and he is drinking tea in the hall now." Do you want to see the princess? ”

"Please." Rui Wang said lightly.

After a while, King Hui stepped into the room, and when he saw King Rui half-leaning on the bed, his mouth opened slightly, and then he said lightly: "Fifth brother, fifth sister-in-law, I heard King Huai in the court today that you were injured, and I came to see you." ”

"Thank you Sixth Brother for your concern, I'm fine, I can go to court after two days of recuperation."

"Fifth brother, today King Huai said that you met an assassin at home, and everyone was surprised, only one person, his expression was very calm, as if he knew in advance." King Hui frowned slightly.

"Oh? Is it? Who's that? "King Rui is so tidy.

"It's Uncle An."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Yunxin was very surprised, this King An was not an official in Beijing, so naturally he didn't have to go to the court, did he suddenly go to the court, did he want to make sure that King Rui was seriously injured?

"Uncle An? It really surprised me. Sixth brother, is Concubine Xi still grounded? King Rui said lightly.

"Yes, but my father specially explained, you are not allowed to be harsh in your diet and daily life, except that you can't leave Mengzhuang Palace, everything else is business as usual." King Hui said lightly.

"Well, it's okay. The autumn hunt will be coming soon, and when the time comes, it will be an opportunity, and Concubine Xi may be able to lift the grounding. King Rui said in a deep voice.

"Is it true? But it's okay to be grounded, so that you won't be killed by jealousy. King Hui said lightly.

Looking at King Hui's fleeting joy, Gu Yunxin was a little distressed, a good prince, not to mention ruining his appearance, but also worrying about an unconscious concubine.

After the previous embroidery competition, many boudoir women have been engaged, King Xiang and King Ding respectively selected a few side concubines and concubines, and King Huai thought he was young, and rejected several marriages that came to the door.

Only King Hui is the only one who cares, perhaps because Concubine Xi is grounded, or these women are unwilling to face a masked man all day.

What woman doesn't want to find a handsome and dashing man who is in the wind to be her husband, and she must be a little lost in her heart when facing a man who doesn't know what he looks like all day long.

"If Concubine Xi lifts the grounding, you will be able to visit often, and the fifteenth royal brother will not be bullied by other princes." Rui Wang said lightly.

What King Rui said about Gu Yunxin is very clear, not to mention in the royal family, even if it is the wife and concubine of a large family.

The only difference is that the emperor will give the queen the dignity she deserves, and will stay in the queen's palace for two nights every month, while the other concubines will depend on the emperor's own preferences.

In a large family, if the husband wants to spend the night in the room of any concubine, the wife cannot be unhappy, otherwise she will be jealous. but

If the husband is willing to spend the night in the wife's room, then the concubines in the house will be more peaceful, but the royal family is different, if the concubines are favored, and the mother's family is very powerful, even the queen sometimes has to suffer some grievances.

A few days ago, King Rui went to the palace to visit the imperial grandmother, and saw the fifteenth prince in the garden, and saw him wearing a clothes full of oil stains, and was climbing rockeries in the garden to play.

King Rui understands that Concubine Xi is grounded, and these little eunuchs and grandmothers who are waiting by the side of the fifteenth prince are also a little lazy.

Originally, King Rui wanted to reprimand the little eunuch and grandmother, but after thinking about it, he gave up this plan. It's just that King Rui still hinted at the grandmother and the eunuchs, asking them to serve the fifteenth prince wholeheartedly.

After all, things in this palace are changing rapidly, and those grandmothers and eunuchs are also smart, so they naturally understand that if Concubine Xi regains favor and knows that they treat their son like this, then they will definitely not end well.

"Fifth brother, thank you for the events of the last few days." King Hui said lightly.

"It's nothing, he's your brother, and he's also my brother, it's just that you know all the tricks in the harem." King Rui sighed.

"Fifth brother, the person who assassinated you, seeing that you are fine this time, you have to be more careful next time." King Hui said lightly.

He knew very well in his heart that there would be any assassin who wanted to kill Princess Rui, he was simply coming for King Rui, and the other party chose to attack Princess Rui, but he just wanted to take the opportunity to kill King Rui.

"Don't worry, this time it's just an accident, next time I won't let anyone get hurt again." King Rui's eyes narrowed slightly.

"That's good, that's good. I don't have any good things, you can use this ginseng to make soup to replenish your body. King Hui handed a ginseng wrapped in red silk cloth to King Rui.

Although everyone is a prince, the prince and the prince are also a little different, those who are favored by their father naturally have all good things, and those who are not favored can only watch others enjoy the favor.

"Sixth brother, thank you for your concern, why don't you stay and have lunch together, you can also take two jars of cherry wine back after I brewed, don't forget to tell me if it tastes good." Gu Yunxin said with a light smile.

Originally, they wanted to refuse this ginseng, after all, King Hui didn't have any rewards on weekdays, and he didn't have any other livelihood, but he just relied on the taxes on the Zhuangzi outside the city, and he lived a tight life.

If he refused, he was worried that King Hui would think too much, so Gu Yunxin still decided to accept it, and by the way, he prepared something as a return gift.

This is the third time that King Hui has eaten in Rui Wangfu, the dishes in Rui Wangfu are delicious, and there is a group of people who are lively and lively, and the atmosphere is very good.

At this moment, Zhan Moshi walked in with Zhan Xinlan, "Ouch, it seems that we didn't come at the right time, you guys will have lunch at this time." Mo's said with a smile.

"The prince is still injured, so I have to eat early to rest, and my second aunt and sister are here, but is there anything wrong?" Gu Yunxin smiled and said

"Didn't you hear that King Rui was injured? I brought Xinlan over to have a look, and I also brought ginseng, deer antler velvet or something, so that King Rui could replenish his body. "Mohs is like a treasure.

Hearing Mo Shi say this, Xiangzhi, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but pout, whether this Mrs. Zhan is here to visit the sick or to show off, how can she look a little sick when she is dressed like this.

"Thank you for your kindness. The prince's body is no longer in serious trouble, and today my father ordered someone to send a lot of supplements to come, so don't be polite to the second aunt. Gu Yunxin said lightly.

"Yunxin girl, this is your mistake, although you are a princess, your status is more noble than your aunt, but these gifts are also a piece of our heart, you can accept others, why can't you accept me?" Mohs pouted.

Gu Yunxin noticed that when Mo Shi mentioned others, his eyes glanced at King Hui, since someone else sent it, then he would accept it.

"Then thank you second aunt, Hongxuan, go and accept the gifts and put them in the warehouse."

Gu Yunxin has to register these gifts, so that he can give gifts to others in the future.

"That's right, Yun Xin, is this King Hui?" Mo's said with a smile.

As soon as she arrived in Kyoto, she began to inquire, and among the several adult princes of the emperor, only King Xiang, King Hui and King Huai did not have concubines.

This King Xiang is from the queen, the Xiao family is already in decline, if Zhan Xinlan is married to King Xiang, I am afraid that it will be implicated in the future. There is no one in the Huaiwang Mother family, and his appearance of being a child can't give Xinlan happiness even if he thinks about it.

Although King Hui's mother is not a strong family, she is also a concubine, and if she can marry Xinlan to King Hui, it is also a good choice.

"Yes, this is His Royal Highness King Hui." Gu Yunxin introduced softly.

"His Royal Highness King Hui Jin An, this is the little girl Xinlan, and this year's embroidery competition is still in the top ten."

"Mrs. Zhan, this king knows that Miss Zhan Er is very outstanding, and this king is also present in the embroidery competition." King Hui smiled lightly.

"It turns out that the prince knows, so what advice does the prince have for Xinlan's talent?" Moh's eyes lit up.

Looking at Mo's appearance, Gu Yunxin was confused, hadn't Mo's always wanted to marry Zhan Xinlan to King Jing? Why is there such courtesy to King Hui today?

Isn't she still thinking about hanging King Hui and King Jing at the same time, to see which of them is more powerful, so that she can sell at the price?

If this is the case, don't blame Gu Yunxin for despising her as an uncle, the daughter of the family still wants to marry twice, and she just doesn't understand what she thinks of her daughter.

"Mrs. Zhan, this king doesn't know anything about talent, Miss Zhan can break into the top ten, it can be seen that her talent is also very good." King Hui still smiled lightly.

"That's right, my Xinlan is good, but there is no suitable family to marry until now." Mohs sighed.

"Mrs. Zhan don't have to worry, Zhan Er

Miss is so good, are you still worried that you can't find a good family? ”

"If there really are good people, I won't be worried."

Hearing this, King Hui didn't know how to answer, how could this Mrs. Zhan tell him this today? If memory serves, this is the first time they've met.

How could King Hui not see that this Mrs. Zhan wanted to marry her daughter to herself, although Zhan Xinlan was very good, she was not the type he liked. It's better to stay away from this place of right and wrong, thinking of this, Hui Dynasty arched his hand at Gu Yunxin, "Fifth sister-in-law, I still have some things to do, so I'll go back first, and I'll come to visit the fifth brother in a few days." ”

"Okay, you get busy first, Xiangzhi will send King Hui out for me." Gu Yunxin said lightly.

After King Hui left, it was not interesting for the Mo family to stay, so he found an excuse to wait for Zhan Xinlan to leave the Rui Palace.

On the way home, Zhan Xinlan complained to Mo Shi for a while, "Mother, what were you going to do just now, why did you say those words to King Hui?" ”

"You girl really don't know what to do, who am I doing this for, not for your good?" Mohs hates iron and does not make steel.

"Good for me? You wanted me to marry King Jing before, and now you want me to marry King Hui, what do you think of me? Zhan Xinlan roared.

"Who are you? Of course, I let you be my daughter, otherwise I don't care about your life or death, your father is useless, and the abilities of your two brothers are not very outstanding, if we want to make the big house look good, we must climb the high branches, don't forget, Zhan Xinyue is married to the king of Xiangyang. ”

"It's a big house again, and you're married to the king of Xiangyang, why are you trying to force me? Do you let yourself choose? Zhan Xinlan said angrily.

After finishing speaking, Zhan Xinlan left Mo and got out of the carriage......
