It's all over now, and Wang Jingshu also saw a rough idea, and the Liu family's affairs really have something to do with the side concubine. But this is already the case, and the side concubine has just entered the mansion, even if she wants to say something, she has to wait a few days before discussing it, "In this case, you will follow Youxiao first to see the residence and see which courtyard you want to live in...... The rest will be mentioned until you settle down. ”

Chen Eryan was a little embarrassed, it was all because of the princess's words...... She suddenly realized that because of herself, there was an extra Liu family, which was disrespectful to the princess. But no matter what the purpose of the princess, she is still very kind, at least she didn't immediately make her unable to get off the stage. But at this time, no matter what you say, it doesn't seem appropriate, and what should you do if the matter has come to this point...... "Then I won't bother the princess and sister." ”

Wang Jingshu bowed slightly, and ordered Youxiao to lead the concubine to take a look at the courtyard, and then find a satisfactory courtyard to settle down.

Immediately, Chen Eryan wanted to ask about Kang Liangdi, but it seemed that ...... She couldn't think of it, and finally followed Youxiao without saying anything.

Rong Ruofen, who was a few steps away from Wang Jingshu behind her, looked at the back of the departing concubine and suddenly took two steps forward, and sighed, "It turns out that there are so many concubines of the prince's uncle," after a pause, she said without knowing the world, "Auntie, you are like a housekeeper, and you have to take care of everything to the end." ”

Wang Jingshu glanced down at her, smiled suddenly, and the tiredness on her face disappeared in an instant. Wherever she goes, the housewife is a person who is not a housekeeper but a housekeeper, because she must be familiar with the affairs of the whole mansion.

Immediately, he instructed her again, "Okay, your business, I'll mention it to the prince when I'm free, and you'll see you then." I've been busy lately. ”

"Okay."

Wang Jingshu walked with her to the main courtyard, and the brilliant sunset on the horizon fell on the entire Ning Wang's Mansion full of joy, and even more shone on them, and their backs were gilded.

They walked in the corridor with many twists and turns, looking at the scenery in front of them, only the layers of courtyard houses stood quietly and towering...... And the stories under the courtyards where so many people stand still will be re-written by their masters.

At this moment, Wang Jingshu has a thousand tastes in her heart, and the heavy heart is looking forward to the joy of the prince has long been vacated, only bitterness. "Actually, the palace is a small imperial city, you will understand it in the future."

The prince and his concubines had just arrived at the palace for less than an hour, but Rong Ruofen had already seen what was going on...... Maybe it's the coldness of a man, or maybe it's the difficulty of the housewife, "I seem to have understood." ”

Wang Jingshu's eyes froze, and after all, they didn't say anything else, and at this moment, their hearts were very close, so close that there was not a single gap.

Soon arrived at the main courtyard, each with their own room, and parted ways.

Wang Jingshu entered the main room, it was empty, no, it should be said that there were only two people in the entire main courtyard, she and Rong Ruofen, who lived in the backyard, and the rest of the people were sent out by her to be sent by others. The concubines settled down, and she was afraid that the new maid would not be able to handle all kinds of things, so she simply asked the subordinates of the main courtyard to do the work.

The room was very quiet at the moment, and her heart was very empty, and all her emotions were swept away from the first anticipation to the joy when he came, and then to this moment.

The prince came, he came to Pingzhou, but there was nothing left for her except for the polite sentence 'The princess has worked hard' and a vague back.

Is all she needs is politeness?

Or does he still believe that Zhao hurt her?

At the end of the day, Wang Jingshu was also tired, thinking about resting, but when she was quiet and inevitably cranky, who made her heart empty?

It's good to just sit quietly and be undisturbed. Even dinner is free.

They sat until dusk fell, and then they went back to work in the main courtyard.

Youxiao and Caiyu entered the main room with their feet in front and back, Wang Jingshu raised her eyes and looked at them, "I'm tired today, let's settle it early, bathe and change clothes for me," A heavy princess dress was almost overwhelming, and she just wanted to close her eyes and sleep at this time, "Is everything arranged?" ”

Caiyu instructed while serving the master's auspicious clothes, "Master, rest assured, they all lived in the courtyard according to your arrangement, maybe they were tired and not dissatisfied with the layout in the courtyard." ”

Now Sun Liangdi lives in front of Kang Liangdi's courtyard, and Liu Zhaoxun lives in the west. The courtyard behind Liu Zhaoxun is Zhao Zhaoxun. Behind Zhao Zhaoxun to the east is Guo Fengyi.

This was all arranged by the princess after thinking about it for a long time, but it was the residence of the side concubine...... So Hu Caiyu mentioned again: "And the side concubine chose the last middle courtyard in the west, and did not listen to what you said and chose the first one in the east." ”

Wang Jingshu glanced at Youxiao, and suddenly sighed, "She chose that one!" ”

The whole palace is almost parallel from the front yard and the main courtyard, and the rest of the courtyard layout is the east and west columns, and the east block is the same row as the west block. For example, because the east is honored, the front yard is in the east and the main courtyard is in the west.

And there are a total of six courtyards in the whole palace, originally she said the first one in the east, close to the main courtyard in the front yard, and the courtyard was the one that Kang's favored before, but she didn't agree, so there was a dispute. Now it seems that the concubine doesn't care about these at all.

"The last middle courtyard in the west is the second best of all the middle courtyards," Xiao added, "The master of the side concubine didn't look at that courtyard at all, only looked at the first one in the east, and after coming out of the courtyard, he decided to be the last one in the west." ”

"Behind the courtyard on the west side is a west gate, and it is not quiet for people to enter and exit."

Wang Jingshu couldn't help but wonder, "Why don't you look at it, just choose it?" ”

"The master doesn't know, when we went, Kang Liangdi was passing by the courtyard to the front yard to meet the prince, and her maid deliberately said that it was her master's favorite courtyard and was now going to be given to the side concubine to live or something." So as soon as the side concubine came out, she said that the last one in the west was very good. ”

It's Kang's again!

It must be that the side concubine wanted to calm things down, so she chose other courtyards, so as not to make that Kang Liangdi unhappy.

Wang Jingshu raised her eyebrows, "It's not easy for her Kang family to live in it," sneered, "Okay, since the side concubine has made a choice, then there is no need to say more." Tell those people to be quiet when they enter and exit the west door, and don't disturb the side concubine who likes to be quiet. ”

"Yes."

Wang Jingshu was really tired, "I want to rest, and the rest will be discussed tomorrow." ”

Caiyu asked, "If it's the prince, what if you come?" ”

Wang Jingshu also hoped for him to come, but she also knew that this kind of waiting was long and meaningless, because ...... "He won't come." ”

Suddenly there was silence in the room.

Xiao Xiaobu quietly opened the curtain and went out to order the maids guarding outside the house to prepare the water for bathing, and suddenly the maids rushed in, busy inside and out. It gives this dead room a bit more lively atmosphere.

And Wang Jingshu took off her auspicious clothes in the inner room and sat in front of the bronze mirror in her underwear, and was served by Jade Pinwei to remove her headdress and slowly remove the complicated bun. I don't know why she was curious, "You say, on the first night of the prince's visit to the palace, which courtyard will he go to?" ”

And live like this again.

The prince and his concubines have arrived, and after that it is time to live as when they lived in the palace.

Wake up every morning to wash and dress, wait for someone to come to her with the history book and ask her to stamp the princess's seal, and then the concubines will come to the morning and dusk to settle the province, and then breakfast, lunch, dinner, and the day will pass again. She was about to start settling the dispute between the concubines again.

And so on year after year, day after day.

In the past, when I lived in the palace, the queen suppressed them, and they would not be too much to fight for me, but now the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and only one princess takes care of the backyard of the entire palace. Maybe how many battles will there be in the future?

Cai Yu Pinwei didn't dare to reply, for fear that the master would feel sad. But Wang Jingshu mentioned it to herself, "I think, Zuo is just the side concubine, or Liu Zhaoxun?" ”

She lowered her head and played with a magnolia hairpin in her hand, which was given to her by the Queen Mother.

She remembered that when she married the prince last year, the queen mother was still sick and did not receive her tea, until the queen mother recovered, she officially wore the princess's auspicious dress in the name of the royal bride to serve tea, the queen mother took a sip of tea, and took off this and pedicle magnolia hairpin from the sideburns and inserted it in her sideburns, "The fourth daughter-in-law, this and the magnolia hairpin, the mourning family has worn it for many years, and now I will give it to you, I wish you the flowers will bloom and be auspicious in the future." ”

Flowers bloom and stalk... Good luck......

Today is the first day that the prince has been to Ning Wangfu, and it stands to reason that she should give her princess some face, at least the first night will rest at her, but she is like a mirror, and she knows that the prince will not come.

It is precisely because of this that she is even more lost.

After a while, I heard Caiyu say: "Maybe the prince is resting in the front yard." ”

Wang Jingshu didn't answer, only sighed slightly.

About a stick of incense, a head like a waterfall and green silk poured down, finally finished dismantling the complicated bun, Wang Jingshu waved away the two, she just wanted to sit quietly alone, no one could come to disturb.

I don't know how long I sat there, Wang Jingshu opened the window, leaned against the window lattice, and looked up, the moon in the sky was looming, faintly covered by dark clouds, maybe there would be a burst of rain tonight. Let's go down, let's go down, the bigger the better, maybe all the dirt will be washed away, and tomorrow morning will be another sunny day.

But this courtyard also has this bit of a bad, as soon as you look up, it is like a boxy sky in the imperial city, and the towering red walls and golden tiles are overwhelming, and people are not free at all.

After living in the palace for two months, Wang Jingshu gradually understood that she couldn't be free anywhere, because the high walls imprisoned countless ......

After another quarter of an hour, Xiao Xiao walked inside, "Master, the hot water is ready, you can bathe and change your clothes." ”

"Okay."

Wang Jingshu closed the window and turned her head to go outside, the bathing pavilion was at that end, in fact, it was not far away, so it was designed to facilitate the master to go to bed directly after bathing at night. But she didn't like this design very much, but it was there before, and it was not easy to tear down the wall and rebuild.

Lianbu walked to the bathing pavilion, which was very large, and the princess who once lived here ordered skilled craftsmen to build a large bath, and there was a changing place next to it.

The water was steaming like a waterfall, and the maids were sprinkling flower petals into the bath...... This place is actually well designed, Wang Jingshu herself likes it very much, unlike the previous palace when it could only be washed in a wooden barrel, although it was big enough, it was always unpleasant to curl up and wash.

Soon the maids were dismissed, leaving only Cai Yu Youxiao to wait for her to take off her underwear, step into the water of the bath, soak her whole body in the water, close her eyes and recuperate, and bathe to wash away the fatigue of the day.

Soon she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Half an hour passed quietly—

And Zhu Pei outside had already arrived, his legs were almost numb when he sat down, and he had changed a cup of tea, and he raised his eyes to look at the maid who was standing on the side and waiting to serve, "Has your master finished washing?" ”

The little maid served the prince at close range for the first time, and it was inevitable that there would be a mistake in her busyness, so she lowered her voice, "Son, go and take a look...... It's better to drink another cup of tea, the prince. The servant will rebrew ...... you."

Zhu Pei snorted heavily, put aside the tea cup loudly, got up and paced towards the inner room, but the little maid blocked his way, "Lord Wang, this house, the master doesn't let others in......"

He was stopped at the place, "Joke, is this king someone else?" ”

As soon as the words fell, he raised his leg and was about to enter, but the little maid didn't have the eyesight to stop her from entering, "That's not possible, no one can enter without the consent of the princess." ”

"Hey, you maid, you are loyal to the princess!" Zhu Peinan was interested, but when he remembered the incident of Qingyu last time, he didn't mention anything else, and pretended to be annoyed and sank his face, "The entire Pingzhou belongs to this king." Where can't this king go...... If you obstruct it again, this king will not come next time. ”

The little girl gritted her teeth and pouted, a little at a loss, and when she hadn't figured out what to do in her little head, Zhu Pei had already strode into the back room while she was unprepared.

There was no one in the inner room to the west, Zhu Pei came in and took a closer look at the decorations inside, which was similar to when he was in the palace before, but there were a few more antique jade objects and a large screen that was forced into two rooms, one was a bed and a dressing table, and the other room was placed with a chaise longue and a set of tables and chairs. And those things know at a glance that they are the princess's dowry, which is naturally good.

Suddenly, Cai Yu opened the curtain and entered, and she only learned from the little maid that the prince was coming, "Please be safe with the prince." ”

"Where's your master?"

As soon as Cai Yu heard that the prince was coming, he immediately told the master who was still bathing in the bath, but there was no movement at all, but when he entered and took a look, he found that ...... "Princess, in the bath, asleep." ”

Zhu Peiteng stood up from his chair, "Asleep?" He immediately went to the bathing pavilion.

I saw Youxiao trying to wake up the princess.

Zhu Pei shook his head slightly when he saw this, this woman... You can also fall asleep in the bath...... He had no choice but to pick her up from the bath and go to her sleeping place.

The princess was still asleep, Zhu Pei gently put her on the bed, couldn't bear to wake her up, only changed her bedclothes with her own hands, and lay beside her.

In the end, the two of them didn't do anything that night.

This matter was mentioned by Wang Jingshu on the second day when she heard Caiyu mention, and this first night was because she fell asleep... And completely gone......
