Chapter Thirty-Six: The Woman Who Suddenly Came to the Door
Hearing Zhao Xuan's words, Zhao Yun probed into Zhao Xuan's body for a long time, and saw that he was not just talking, but talking about the firmness in his eyes. Then Zhao Yun asked, "You really don't plan to marry a concubine now?"
Seeing Zhao Yun say this, Zhao Xuan nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, father, I hope my father will forgive."
I thought that if Zhao Xuan admitted that he liked Jiuhuang, then today he would marry Jiuhuang to Zhao Xuan as the princess in front of all the ministers. But looking at Zhao Xuanxian's answer now, it seems that he doesn't like Jiuhuang, so the finger marriage brewing in his heart turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared in his heart.
In order to make up for his ignorance of Zhao Xuan in the past ten years, Zhao Yun agreed not to marry a concubine for Zhao Xuan, and waited for him to marry outside, and it was not too late to talk about it.
On the other hand, when Zhao Xuan heard that Zhao Yun was going to marry a concubine for him, in addition to the initial shock, there was nervousness and fear in his heart.
He didn't know why Zhao Yun, who had ignored it for more than ten years, suddenly mentioned his marriage and married a concubine for him after the death of his mother.
Zhao Xuan didn't understand and didn't want to understand, because in his heart, only the person he promised to marry could be qualified to become his concubine, or more importantly, only Jiuhuang was qualified to be his princess.
Don't ask Zhao Xuan why he is so sure that only Jiuhuang can become his princess, because in Zhao Xuan's heart, he can already guess with certainty that Jiuhuang is the little girl back then.
And when Zhao Yun was talking about marrying a concubine for him, Zhao Xuan actually had even spoken in his heart, wanting to answer Zhao Yun's words that if he married a concubine, he would marry Jiuhuang, after thinking of what happened to Xufu during this period of time and Jiuhuang's disobedience to Zhao Yun, Zhao Xuan swallowed his words back into his mouth.
If Zhao Xuan was so convinced in his heart that Jiuhuang would not marry, if he knew that if he just nodded and said that he was willing to marry a concubine, Zhao Yun would be able to marry Jiuhuang for him, I don't know what he felt in his heart, and he would regret that he couldn't answer Zhao Yun as quickly as possible.
At that time, just as Zhao Xuan was rejecting Zhao Yun's marriage in the court, the palace of the three princes outside the palace walls ushered in an uninvited guest.
Mei Xue, a woman dressed in blue, finally learned that the person she met on the road was Zhao Xuan, the third prince of the Celestial Empire, after several inquiries. Mei Xue came to Shangjing all the way to play.
Looking at the deserted mansions in front of the door, Mei Xue couldn't help but wonder in her heart, along the way, she kept hearing how Zhao Xuan was favored by Emperor Zhao Yun, why was she so deserted in front of the door when she came to the Third Prince's Mansion?
Mei Xue thought she had gone to the wrong place, but when she looked up, the four eye-catching characters of "Three Princes' Mansion" on the door plaque reminded her that she had not gone to the wrong place.
At this moment, the housekeeper opened the door and saw a woman in a blue dress standing outside the prince's mansion, bowing her head thoughtfully.
Mei Xue also saw the housekeeper who came out, and a pair of clear eyes probed on the housekeeper's body.
This old man who looks gray with gray temples has a steady pace under his feet, and his walking figure is not as staggering as other old men, so he wants to practice regularly.
"This is the mansion of the third prince Zhao Xuan?"
Although Mei Xue already knew in her heart that this was indeed the Three Princes' Mansion, she couldn't help but ask the housekeeper again.
The housekeeper looked at Mei Xue who was standing in front of the mansion, and then heard Mei Xue's question, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, didn't the woman see the four eye-catching big characters on the door plaque?
Although he was a little surprised by Mei Xue's question, the housekeeper, who had always been highly educated in the palace, did not show any impatience on his face, looked at Mei Xue, and said, "The girl is really joking, this is the Three Princes' Mansion." ”
Mei Xue received an affirmative answer from the housekeeper, nodded, and then said, "I see." ”
As she spoke, her figure had slowly stepped on the steps in front of the Prince's Mansion; The housekeeper looked at Mei Xue's movements, and the alarm bell sounded in his heart, this woman who suddenly appeared in front of the Prince's Mansion in the early morning, repeatedly asked if this was the Three Princes' Mansion, after we got his answer, he actually walked up without saying a word, and the housekeeper looked at Mei Xue carefully.
After waiting for Mei Xue to get closer, the housekeeper stopped Mei Xue, who was still trying to go to the house, and said, "Girl, please stay." ”
Glancing at the housekeeper who stopped in front of her, Mei Xue said, "Old man, you get out of the way, I want to go in." ”
When the housekeeper heard Mei Xue's words, he couldn't help but show dissatisfaction in his heart, he looked at Mei Xue, and thought of such an arrogant and unreasonable in his heart, looking at her dress, he thought that his family background would not be ordinary, maybe it was a young lady who had never come out of a family.
Holding back the dissatisfaction in his heart, the housekeeper said: "Girl, this is the Three Princes' Mansion, if you want to come to my prince, please go back first, my prince is still in the palace." ”
Mei Xue nodded, it was a little early at this time, it was estimated that Zhao Xuan was still in the court, but she finally came to Shangjing, how could she leave without seeing Zhao Xuan, this is not something she Mei Xue can do at all.
"He's not here?" Mei Xue exclaimed.
The housekeeper nodded, and was about to say something, but was preempted by Mei Xue.
"It's okay if he's not there, but it's fine, you let me in, I'll wait inside for him to come back."
The housekeeper thought he had misheard, but when he looked at Mei Xue and saw the serious expression on her face, the housekeeper had to admit that what he had just heard was the truth. I was surprised by Mei Xue's bold behavior and a little helpless at the same time.
In the Three Princes' Mansion for more than ten years, the housekeeper has never encountered such an unreasonable woman.
"Girl, why don't you go home first, and wait until after noon, and then you come to my prince?"
"No! My home is too far away. ”
The housekeeper was kind enough to persuade Mei Xue, but he didn't expect Mei Xue to be even more difficult to talk than the housekeeper thought in his heart, he had already explained it to her like this, but he didn't expect that she didn't seem to listen to her words at all, and she insisted on going to the house.
"Old man, you just let me in, I'm not a bad person, Zhao Xuan, he knows me, when he led the army to fight Batu, he also saved my life on the road, if you don't believe it, you let me in, and when Zhao Xuan comes back and asks, you will know if he knows me."
The housekeeper was still hesitating and tangled, how to make the woman who suddenly arrived in front of the mansion leave, but he didn't want her to say such a thing again.
And just when the housekeeper was in a dilemma, he thought about whether the housekeeper in the house should come and take the woman in front of him lightly, but he saw Zhao Xuan who came back from the lower court not far away; The butler hurriedly walked down the steps and waited for Zhao Xuan.
The carriage approached, Mo Zhu parked the horse in front of the mansion, and waited until Zhao Xuan dismounted, and then let Ma Si on the side drive the carriage into the stable. When Zhao Xuan got out of the carriage, the butler stepped forward and saluted, "Third prince." ”
Zhao Xuan nodded to the housekeeper, and then walked towards the door of the mansion.
Mei Xue had already seen Zhao Xuan coming back in the carriage after the housekeeper went down the steps just now, and her heart was full of joy waiting for Zhao Xuan to get off the carriage, and then fantasized about what kind of expression he would have when he suddenly saw him, whether he was surprised, shocked or happy.
But in the end, after Zhao Xuan ordered the carriage, Mei Xue found that Zhao Xuan didn't look at her at all, and he didn't look at her at all, and the reaction that Zhao Xuan had imagined when he saw her was also disappointed.
Seeing that Zhao Xuan was about to enter the mansion, Mei Xue finally couldn't help but shout: "Hey, Zhao Xuan!" ”
Zhao Xuan, who was about to walk into the mansion, heard the shouts behind him, couldn't help but stop, turned around, and saw Mei Xue standing on the steps with an unhappy face, and looked at the housekeeper with a puzzled look.
The housekeeper received Zhao Xuan's inquiring look, and then shook his head, just telling Zhao Xuan that when he opened the door of the mansion, he saw Mei Xue standing outside the mansion. At the same time, the housekeeper was also glad in his heart, fortunately, he didn't let Mei Xue enter the mansion, looking at his master, he must not know the woman in front of him.
And Mei Xue saw that Zhao Xuan was puzzled when she turned to look at her, and the dissatisfied guess in her heart was that Zhao Xuan had forgotten herself? No, Mei Xue is very proud of her appearance, at least she is recognized as the first beauty in the United States, since she is a beauty, how can Zhao Xuan not remember her after seeing her for a while?
Mei Xue looked at Zhao Xuan tentatively and asked, "Don't you remember me?" ”
Zhao Xuan frowned after hearing Mei Xue's words and did not speak. Taking Zhao Xuan's expression into her eyes, Mei Xue knew in her heart that Zhao Xuan really didn't remember her, and a sense of frustration rose from Mei Xue's heart.
"In Yunhua Mountain in Cloud City, you led the army to encounter wolves, and then you accidentally injured me by mistake, and in the end you saved me."
Mei Xue told her how she met Zhao Xuan, and Zhao Xuan had already remembered that the woman in front of her was the woman with a suspicious identity who was rescued by herself when she heard what Mei Xue said.
Zhao Xuan frowned and looked at Mei Xue and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Listening to Zhao Xuan's tone, she should have remembered herself, Mei Xue couldn't help but be excited in her heart, and then walked up the steps quickly, stood in front of Zhao Xuan and said, "Of course I came here to find you, why are you still the same wood as before?" ”
Seeing Mei Xue talking to herself, the smile on her face was so flamboyant, a trace of disgust flashed in Zhao Xuan's eyes, and he said to the housekeeper: "Close the door of the house." ”
Zhao Xuan ignored Mei Xue's words, turned around and walked into the mansion, leaving only one word for the housekeeper to close the door.
The housekeeper originally listened to the conversation between Mei Xue and Zhao Xuan on the side, and thought that this was really someone his master knew, but he didn't expect that knowing is indeed knowing, and his master still seems to be as close as he used to hate women; Obviously, the woman in front of her has aroused the disgust of her master, and the master's words also carry some dissatisfaction with him.
