Cao and Miss Four came to Song Yi and expressed that they wanted to learn to manage things. Song Yi did not object on the spot. She also knew that Zhu Shanlei didn't want to take advantage of the opportunity to seize power.

Zhu Shanlei is a smart person who knows what is best for herself. She just wants to learn to take care of housework, which is also to have more bargaining chips when looking for her in-laws in the future.

And Zhu Shanlei and Cao did not go to the old lady to talk about Xiang first, but came to find themselves, and Song Yi also saw the cleverness of the two.

Cao's mother and daughter both know that the old lady is a good-looking person, if Zhu Shanlei can marry a good family, of course the old lady is willing. Therefore, if they went to the old lady to talk about it, they would naturally not be opposed by the old lady. I was afraid that Song Yi would not agree, so they came to Song Yi first. If Song Yi agrees, they will go to the old lady again and say that it will be a sure thing.

Song Yi naturally said hello because the Cao family came to say hello first, and he couldn't send it right anymore. So, Zhu Shanlei successfully learned to be a housekeeper by Song Yi's side.

Song Yi found that Zhu Shanlei was really a smart woman. Anything, as soon as you learn it, it is not worse than when you first learned to read the account book and manage common affairs.

It didn't take long for Song Yi to discover that Zhu Shanlei was already able to take charge on her own. The big and small things in the house are also well advanced, and no one can find faults.

Sometimes, Song Yi really has to sigh that people are really different from each other.

Although Zhu Chenxi and Zhu Shanlei are not siblings, there is not much difference in age between the two, and they grew up in the same mansion.

When one was in his mother's house, he was arrogant and domineering, and the other was obscure and inconspicuous, and the two had very different reputations among the people in the palace.

In addition, because of the Wang family's housekeeper, Zhu Chenxi began to go out to social occasions early. Although there are many opportunities to show his face in front of the upper-class lady, he has never found a good marriage.

is even more so well protected by the Wang family that Zhu Chenxi was deceived by Taiyan and did something immoral before marriage. Although Zhu Shanlei has always been famous, she did not drop the chain at the critical moment, and a picture of longevity at the old lady's birthday banquet attracted everyone's attention, and later won the third place in the poem, which was a blockbuster. What's even more commendable is that Zhu Shanlei knows that the more attention she has, the more low-key and humble she must be, and she has a very good reputation among other ladies and ladies.

Under the tuyere of the successive accidents in the big house, Zhu Shanlei's market has not been affected at all, but has become more and more marketable, Song Yi heard that these days, many people have sent people to inquire about Zhu Shanlei's marriage. It can be seen that Zhu Shanlei is powerful.

Song Yi felt that in the real king's mansion, not all of them were just some whites. Among the younger generation, there are Zhu Zimo, who is ambitious, Zhu Chenxi, who is not big, Zhu Chengjun, who is dedicated to studying, and Zhu Shanlei, who is good at disguise.

Born in a rich family, they are all calculated, how many people are not affected by those worldliness?

Song Yi is a little worried, if his children live in this environment, will they become such scheming people?

However, Song Yi didn't worry about it for long, because there were more important things waiting for her to worry about.

I heard that the Princess of Siam and her party have entered Kyoto.

Siam is a country in the northwest of the Qianchao Dynasty, which was founded near the sea and has maritime trade with the West. Mostly influenced by the open-mindedness of the West and the Western Regions of the Qian, the Chinese people are very cheerful and unrestrained.

Although the territory is inferior to that of the Qianchao, the army is inferior to that of the Jurchens. But the victory is unity, the king of Siam only has one son and one daughter, so there is no internal strife.

Because the tail of the Qian Dynasty is too big to fall, the prince is fighting for power, so it can't be twisted up and down into a rope, and the northern steppe has come out with Nuhachi Khan, eyeing the Central Plains. The emperor didn't believe Marshal Gao Jinyun, but still wanted to ask for help from outside the country and prepare with both hands.

Siam, which has always been neutral, is the party that the emperor hopes to win over the most.

Although Siam is a small country, it also has some strength. I heard that the maritime trade was developed, and many treasures were exchanged. Among them, what other weapons can shoot thousands of miles away, and can win without close combat.

The King of Siam refused to admit it, but the Emperor was convinced that he had such a weapon. Let the real king Zhu Xi secretly investigate.

Zhu Xi once personally infiltrated the country of Siam to explore the truth and reality, and only then did he meet the Siamese princess Paula by chance. Zhu Xi didn't take Paula to heart, at most he regarded her as a little sister. But Paula was very interested in the real king, and at first she didn't know that he was the prince of the Qian Dynasty. Later, when he found out, he wanted to marry the true king.

Zhu Xi was so annoyed that he fled back to the Qianchao, and he had already forgotten the little girl of the year over the years. But unexpectedly, just this year, the King of Siam wrote a letter to tell the Emperor of the Qian Dynasty that he would marry the princess to the real king.

Of course, the emperor was willing, thinking that the marriage between the two countries would be successful. Unexpectedly, the real king disagreed. said that he had just become married, and the princess was pregnant again.

The emperor first lured, then persecuted, and the true king was unmoved. In the end, I thought of starting from the real princess Song Yi, and then there would be those things later.

Most people in Beijing didn't know about the real king and the Siamese princess, and they only thought that the Siamese princess really came to find the concubine when she entered Beijing this time. I don't know, the princess of Siam went to the end of the world for love, and came to the Qianchao to court.

Song Yi heard that the Siamese princess had entered the city, and he was a little uneasy. Looking at the dark clouds drifting from the northwest, Song Yi felt a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Princess, it looks like the sky is about to change. Let's go back" Mother Gui brought a cloak and put it on Song Yi.

"Mother Gui, you say, are men hungry who like the new and hate the old?" Song Yi looked at the dark clouds in the sky, a little distracted, and didn't even pay attention to what he asked.

Mother Gui looked at Song Yi's belly, which was already slightly bulging, and couldn't bear to hit the other party, so she could only smile and say, "It's not absolute." Some men are very single-minded and will only love one person"

"Then do you think the prince is a single-minded person?"

"Princess, don't think about it. The prince has been a little busy lately. He always thinks about your mother and son" Mother Gui looked at the emaciated princess, a little unbearable.

"He's going to pick up the Siamese princess" Song Yi wanted to pretend that he didn't care, but there was still sourness in his tone.

"Hey" Mother Gui looked at the sullen princess, knowing her thoughts, and couldn't help but say, "Princess, why do you bother?" After returning from the palace last time, you and the prince have not spoken. No matter how deep your feelings are, you can't afford to waste them like this. I think, you better find a chance to talk to the prince, don't torture each other"

"I've reached out to him more than once this month. When did he give me a good face? Although I am at fault, I can't stand him being so cold and violent."

"Princess, don't be strong women, it's yourself who suffers in the end" Gui's mother still felt that Song Yi didn't put down her body, so she said so.

"Why do you want me to keep my profile down?" Song Yi was also confused.

Song Yi didn't understand, the man's attitude this time was too unusual. It stands to reason that he should have lost his temper a long time ago. But there was still little improvement between the two.

Since that time in the palace, the man seems to have a barrier from himself, and he has been busy outside and can't see anyone. Occasionally, the man only cared about the situation of the child in her womb and did not say anything else.

Song Yi doesn't know, what does it mean to be a man like this?

The emperor asked the True King to receive the Siamese envoys, and the True King did not refuse. As if, the emperor's arrangement has been tacitly acquiesced.

Song Yi couldn't figure out why men treated themselves like this. Is it really "if you get it, you don't cherish it?" ”

Song Yi touched his five-month-old belly and doubted his decision for the first time.
