Chapter 47: There is a lack of a true mistress in the palace

Although Gui's mother is old, her heart is clear.

Although the prince was ostensibly looking at the book in his hand, his mind was attracted by the sound of frolicking in the courtyard outside.

The book in his hand has not been turned for a long time.

What attracts the prince outside, Gui's mother has a guess.

However, Gui's mother didn't think about it in that direction.

After all, what is the identity of the prince? The rumors in the house are nothing more than nonsense.

But the prince's marriage is also the top priority of the palace.

As the saying goes, "marry a wife and marry a virtuous", not to mention a wealthy family like the true king.

Gui's mother is also very anxious about the prince's marriage.

Inevitably, the prince was hurt by the scene, so he closed the window that was only a crack in it.

"It's really snowy outside, but it's still warm inside."

Mother Gui closed the scenery outside the house, and Zhu Xi was only a little sorry and didn't say anything.

Mother Gui saw that the real king was not angry, so she put her mind at ease and pretended to speak casually.

"Lord Wang, the old slave heard that the marriage of the eldest prince has been decided. The bride will be married on the fifteenth day of the first month of spring. ”

"Well, this king knows"

Mother Gui saw that the prince did not have any superfluous expressions and continued.

"I heard that the eldest lord has a job for the eldest prince in the country, and he is a six-grade official."

Mother Gui observed Zhu Xi's face as she spoke.

Zhu Xi put down the book in his hand and sneered, "There is such a thing"

"The old slave heard that this time for the eldest son's errand, the big house spent a lot of silver." Mother Gui said cautiously, "The eldest master has been promoted quickly over the years, and I heard that it was only after spending money." The old lady manages the industry inside and outside the palace, and the grandmother has no less oil and water......"

Zhu Xi knew that Gui's mother had something to say, so he looked at her and said, "Gui's mother, if you have something to say, it's okay"

Mother Gui knelt down, and then said, "Lord Wang, don't blame the old slave for talking too much. Although the prince is fighting for his career outside, it is not easy to meddle in the affairs of the house. But all the properties of this real palace are left to you by the old prince, but you must not let people be so greedy. ”

"Forgive the old slave for talking too much. At the end of the day, there is no real hostess in the palace. In the capital, a son as big as the prince has already become a parent. The old prince is no longer there, and the one in the Qingsong Courtyard is even less concerned about the prince's marriage. According to the old slave, the people up and down in this palace can't be counted on. It is inevitable that the prince will look for one himself, so that he can open up the branches of the real palace earlier."

If others say this, there will certainly be no good fruit to eat. But now it comes out of the mouth of Gui's mother.

Yin Xiaohei on the side nodded secretly in a hurry, with an expression that should have been like this a long time ago.

Gui's mother mentioned this matter again as she spoke.

Of course, Zhu Xi knew that this Gui's mother was a trustworthy person who was truly good for herself.

When she said these words, Zhu Xi was not annoyed, nor did she mean to blame.

Why doesn't he want to have a confidant? But it is difficult to meet a soulmate in the mountains and rivers.

If it's really just for the sake of passing on the lineage, knowing the cold and the hot, why bother with him.

What's the situation in the palace, if you can't find a woman who can have the means, you will only hurt the other party.

Zhu Xi didn't tell Gui's mother about the considerations in his heart, but just looked at her and sighed, shook his head, and changed the topic.

"Where is Song Yi? This king seems to have heard her and Xiaobao's voices? ”

When Gui's mother heard that the prince changed the topic, she knew that he didn't want to talk about it more, so she wanted to say more, but when she saw that the prince's face was not good, she could only stop mentioning it for the time being.

"No matter how unhappy the prince is, the old slave also wants to remind you. There can't be a lack of a female master in this palace. Otherwise, the prince just made a wedding dress for others."

"What Mother Gui means, this king has already understood. Needless to say, step down."

Gui's mother was bored, so she didn't say more. But she did not regret saying these words in front of the prince today.

Xiao Hei was on the side, eager to applaud Gui's mother's righteous act, and applauded with both hands and feet.

Over the years, he has been by the side of the prince, and naturally knows the loneliness and hardship of the prince.

Just when Xiao Hei was in a daze, a voice called Gui's mother came from outside the door.

"Mother Gui, come out quickly"

As soon as I heard the voice of the speaker, I knew that it was Song Yi.

When Gui's mother apologized and exited the house, she saw that two small people, one big and one small, were standing under the eaves tremblingly, their heads shrunk, and their faces were covered with snow and frost.

"Oh, you two monkeys, can you not freeze on such a cold day? Hurry up and change into clean clothes and drink some warm soup so you don't get sick."

Gui's mother said distressed outside. Then, while arranging for someone to cook the hot soup to ward off the cold, he left with the two of them.

Zhu Xi in the house heard Gui's mother's words clearly.

Although I didn't see it, I could imagine the embarrassed appearance of Song Yi and Xiaobao.

Zhu Xi put down the book in his hand in a daze, and Xiao Hei on the side also took the opportunity to take a nap.

After a while, the orangutan felt curtain was lifted through the door. A biting cold wind mixed with heavy snow waited for an opportunity to blow in.

Song Yi went and returned and came to the house.

Although I changed my clothes, I still had some snow on my body. His face was flushed, and he had obviously just experienced the alternation of hot and cold.

Song Yi hurriedly went to the coals in the house. The prince uses the best silver charcoal here, and there is no smoke.

Mother Gui hadn't come back yet, and Song Yi knew that Mother Gui must have served the prince for breakfast just now.

So, he didn't dare to speak out, for fear that the prince would take his own mistakes.

Song Yi was sneaky, and Zhu Xi naturally saw it in his eyes.

knew her mind and didn't expose it.

"It's such a cold day outside, it's okay to be crazy, what's crazy with a little baby? It's frozen, and people have grandma pain, what about you? ”

Zhu Xi looked at the girl who came in, his face was flushed, he was afraid that he would be sick, so he couldn't help but speak, but his exit was sarcastic.

Song Yi pursed his lips and watched Gui's mother enter the house, so he could only reply respectfully, "Lord Wang, this is the first snow of the year." Haven't you seen the slave in the past, for a while, I got carried away."

"Haven't seen it?" Zhu Xi's face was full of suspicion.

"Huh? Oh, I mean, I haven't seen snow this much since I came to the palace."

Song Yi was startled and hurriedly explained.

Zhu Xi still didn't believe it, but he didn't say much.

Gui's mother waited for the opportunity to step forward and brought a few bowls of cold soup.

"Lord Wang, the old slave just asked people to boil more cold soup. It's a little cold outside, so you can drink a bowl to drive away the cold."

As he spoke, he took a bowl and put it in front of Zhu Xi.

Gui's mother saw that Zhu Xi did not refuse, and then retreated.

"Xiao Hei, my mother also left you a bowl, you can also drink it while it's hot" Gui's mother pointed to another bowl of soup on the side and told Yin Xiaohei.

Yin Xiaohei said with a hippie smile: "I'm in good health." However, I still want to thank Gui Mama."

Mother Gui left happily, walked to Song Yi's side, and whispered in her ear, "Girl, hurry up and drink." I'll leave you outside, be careful if you catch a cold. ”

Song Yi looked at the thoughtful and kind Mother Gui, and really felt a kind of warmth that was cared for by her family. sighed in her heart, but without the approval of the prince, it was difficult for her to run out after Gui's mother.

Zhu Xi drank the hot soup and watched Song Yi wash his nose aggrievedly, but he couldn't bear it.

"Mother Gui didn't leave you a bowl of cold soup, don't live up to her kindness, you can go and drink it"

When Song Yi heard this, he went to the outhouse happily.

Zhu Xi looked at Song Yi's back, and his eyes were even darker.

Time passes quietly, and in a warm room, people are more and more likely to become lazy and sleepy.

Song Yi was studying ink for Zhu Xi on the side, and Zhu Xi also took advantage of the heavy snow to practice calligraphy.

At this time, Gao Nian said that he had something to say.
