In the evening, Zhu Pei really wrote a letter and asked Aunt Chang Xia to pass it on the next day. As for what he wrote, the rest of the people did not know.
Soon, it was getting dark thoroughly, and Aunt Chang Xia urged him, "Master, Liu Zhaoxun has cleaned up there and waited for you to come over." ”
Obviously, Liu Zhaoxun made the prince unhappy during the day, but in the evening, the prince said that he would let Liu Zhaoxun serve, and he would set foot in the Zhaoxun room tonight. There are always men who say that a woman's heart is hard to fathom. If you want to put her aside, isn't a man's heart elusive?!
"Go to the concubine." Aunt Chang Xia was stunned for a moment, and changed again? However, she was a little helpless, "The side concubine rested early in the morning, and the lights in the house were turned off when the maid came." ”
"What day is Ming'er?"
"March 15th, we are almost out of the palace for a month."
March 15 –
Zhu Pei still remembered this day, gritted his teeth, and his tone was not very kind, "Is it really out in the side concubine's house?" ”
Aunt Chang Xia didn't know why, so she only replied seriously, "It's really out." Then I saw Zhu Pei get up angrily and go straight to the side concubine.
She followed, and the prince's steps were so fast that she couldn't catch up.
When I arrived at the side concubine, I didn't see the maid keeping vigil, and the whole room was quiet, not like the master was sleeping, but like no one at all. Zhu Pei simply asked Ah Sui to search, and then Aunt Chang Xia also went inside to search, but there was no one to see, so she immediately left the house. "Master, the side concubine is not here. Even her two maids are not there, but the clothes and jewelry are there, and I wonder where I am enjoying the night view. ”
Enjoy the night view?
Or do you think about the moon?
But that's up for debate.
The moonlight was bright, Zhu Pei stood quietly at the door of the side concubine's house, the moonlight was clear through the mottled shadows of the trees on his back, and he felt lonely and helpless at this moment. After much thought, he waved his hand and motioned for them to stand down.
Ah Sui and Aunt Chang Xia retired. He was left alone.
Soon he also left and went to Liu Zhaoxun.
It wasn't until the second day, when Aunt Chang Xia took Bai Xipa to check on the side concubine, that Chen Eryan knew that the prince was fortunate to be in the Liu family, and she really didn't know in advance.
Aunt Chang Xia deliberately probed, "Yesterday, the prince originally came to you, the side concubine, but unfortunately the side concubine you have rested, so I went to Liu Zhaoxun." ”
Chen Eryan was still expressionless, as if she didn't understand her words, "Then congratulations to Sister Liu." This Zhaoxun seat is also worthy of its name. ”
At noon, Concubine Side's fluttering words came into Zhu Pei's ears, which made her even more unhappy, but after all, she didn't say much, saving face for Concubine Side and not exposing the moon and moon that she had admired all night.
In the evening, Aunt Chang Xia went to deliver the message, and met Concubine Chen and Sun Liangdi walking together, and the two were gossiping with each other. Sun Fanghui saw the letter in her hand, "Ah, this is the handwriting of the prince, written four words, the princess herself opened." It seems to be written to the princess. ”
"Yes, it's the princess who wrote it, and the maid is going to deliver the message now."
Sun Fangwei pretended to glance at the side concubine, thinking that she had recently fallen out of favor with the princess and was annoyed with the princess, so she pretended to sigh lightly, "I used to have to help the side concubine, but now that the prince has written a letter, then our princess should no longer need to ask the side concubine to pass on the news." ”
Chen Eryan didn't want to say more, but asked Aunt Chang Xia: "I sent a letter to the princess last time, did she have a reply?" I wonder where she went? ”
Generally, it is the Hongyan correspondence, not the messenger sent by the guards, so I don't know where the princess and the princess have gone. "Back to the side concubine, the princess has not replied yet, I don't know where they are at the moment, count the days, it should be in Jiangzhou."
Chen Eryan waved her hand and told her to stand down.
As soon as Aunt Chang Xia left, Sun Fang's face was not very good-looking, "Master Concubine Side, what did you say was written in the prince's letter?" Could it be the Liu family's business? ”
Originally, the princess was not there, the side concubine fell out of favor, the Zhao family was confined, and the Guo family was disgusted, these days should be her most favored, and she still wants to take advantage of the most favored time to conceive an heir, or seek some welfare for herself.
But the side concubine in front of her was against her, and she insisted on pulling a Liu family into the door, and she was also sealed Zhaoxun yesterday. She really hates this side concubine, but the side concubine is the side concubine, and she can only live her mouth because of the rules, otherwise what can she do? "Concubine Side, you are really capable, whoever you want to enter the door of King Ning's Mansion can enter the door, it is really more powerful than the princess's master. Now that the princess is gone, you are in charge of everything in Queen Ning's mansion, but I advise you not to be the master of this kind of concubine. The princess is not there, but the queen mother in the palace is watching. If you let a folk girl enter the door of King Ning's mansion, you have to see if she is qualified? And what kind of realm is this? ”
Chen Eryan laughed twice, "I have the ability, so you should thank me." Without me, can you enter the door of King Ning's mansion? He took two steps forward and leaned closer, "You're really right, whoever I let in can enter the door!" He whispered again, "If I hadn't hinted at the princess, you really wouldn't have been able to enter the door of King Ning's mansion." I advise you to leave three points of leeway to speak, otherwise, I can let you in and let others in, don't be too happy! ”
Sun Fangwei was obviously stunned, and then said another word of persuasion, "If you don't go to Pingzhou, the prince will take a concubine, how will the people in the world think of Prince Ning?" The side concubine should be of one heart and one mind with Ning Wangfu, and should not drag Ning Wangfu down! ”
Chen Eryan was angry, and her resentment was beyond words, "The prince didn't say that I was dragging down, what are you?" And they blamed me! ”
Sun Fangwei was even angrier than her, "It's no wonder that the dignified side concubine said such a thing, no matter how clear the white body is, it is also a white body, and it is normal for the side concubine of the white body family to choose a folk girl to enter the door of Ning Wang's Mansion." A people's girl is a people's girl, but it can't be the same as us eunuchs. ”
"The side concubine has no family, and now that she has lost the favor of the prince, she will learn from Fan Ji in ancient times to offer beautiful women to King Chuzhuang to show her virtue?"
Every time someone reminds Chen Eryan's family, it is the saddest hurdle in her heart, as if her side concubine is really not worthy of her name, "Fan Ji? King Chuzhuang? ”
Immediately, she laughed again, her bright smile was cold in the sun, "I have to learn to say this to the princess!" I want to atone for my sins to her, Sun Liangdi said that I have the ability of Fan Ji. ”
Sun Fanghui's face suddenly changed.
……
There was a lot of turmoil in the town of Binshui here, and when Wang Jingshu received the letter from the prince, their men and horses had already rushed to Hezhou overnight, and she was tired but in a good mood at the moment, "When we arrive in Hezhou, we will rest for two more days." However, this Hezhou is under the control of the imperial court, and you are all restrained and cautious. ”
As soon as Lin Youxiao received the letter, she entered the carriage to deliver the letter, and she was riding a horse just now, "The maid will remind them." At this time, the Lu guards were looking for an inn to live in. ”
Wang Jingshu remembered something, "Recently, you and Lu Guards often ride horses together, what do you think of him?" ”
Lin Youxiao didn't know what the master meant, so he said cheerfully, "It's good, his temperament is straightforward and refreshing, and he is an honest man." ”
But Wang Jingshu didn't mean that, she felt that the guard was a manufacturable material, if she knew that it would be a good thing to follow him in this life, but she always had to find out what people were thinking, "Then, how does he treat you?" ”
Lin Youxiao's face turned pale with fright, and he was so anxious that he cleared up the relationship, "I have nothing to do with him, master, don't think about it." He just took me by the reins when he was riding, and pulled me a little more, but I rode slowly, and he was afraid that I would not be able to keep up, and that's all. Besides, I'm wearing a hat, and he can see something. ”
Wang Jingshu was stunned at first, and then pretended to get to the bottom of it, "Then do you want him to see it or not?" ”
Lin Youxiao was so anxious that he stomped his feet, causing the carriage to be turbulent, and he had to endure it again, "Oh, master! I never thought about that! ”
"What have you thought about?"
Lin Youxiao felt that he couldn't explain it for a while, so he simply found an excuse and jumped out of the carriage and hurried back.
Wang Jingshu was joking, but when she saw this, she became serious, she never thought about other people's thoughts, but now she has to think about it.
Now for the guest house, the carriage has gone to the most prosperous Lotus Town market in Hezhou, with rows of shops on both sides of the street, carriages of people coming and going, and the noisy town seems to be humane.
Even Wang Jingshu couldn't help but open the curtain and take a look at the folk customs, it was very lively here.
Although Hezhou was under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, Wang Jingshu knew little about it. She only knew that although Hezhou was one of the places directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, it was not particularly rich, and the people were simple and simple.
After looking at the scene for a long time, I saw Lin Youxiao hurrying back and getting into the carriage, "Master, I heard that there is a Hundred Flowers Festival here, so there are a lot of people coming and going." After hearing this, Miss Rong only threatened to go and see it, Qingyun couldn't be the master, so she asked her servant to come and ask. Do you agree to Miss Rong? ”
"Why don't you go and see something new?"
Hundred Flowers Festival –
Wang Jingshu didn't have that thought, her mind at this time was all in the letter that had not yet been opened, "I don't have to, you can go, when you find the inn and put your bags together, you can go with them, and give you half a day off, don't be restrained." ”
"I'm tired of seeing the flowers in the palace, and I'm afraid that the Hundred Flowers Festival here will be fresh."
Having said that, Lin Youxiao still wanted to be fresh, so he answered, ready to go with them to take a look.
Wait until the Lu guards find the inn and come to meet them. About two quarters of an hour they entered the inn and settled down. Lin Youxiao went with them to join in the fun, and Wang Jingshu also asked Lu Qing to go with them, and she could protect them if she had something.
When they were all gone, Wang Jingshu snuggled up in a chair and opened the letter and read the letter. This is the handwriting of the prince, she recognizes it. It seems that he did not pretend to be a man.
- Princess, everything is fine, don't read it. Liu's matter is my hasty, and then I have to register it, for Zhaoxun, I have been given to the Ming Palace, and I need to go to Pingzhou to meet the princess to be considered a ceremony, and then I decided not to take a concubine in such a hurry. The previous letter went, I did not see the princess reply, today the letter is a wild goose to go, read it must reply as soon as possible, I don't know where you are, can you be okay? Please let us know as soon as possible. We will leave for the north as soon as possible. If there is something important on the road, you can take the waist card of King Ning's Mansion to report it to the government, and find help. The things on the road to Pingzhou will be talked about in detail, hoping to take care of themselves and read them.
Suddenly, her heart was pounding, sweet and mixed feelings...... A number of flavors came to my heart.
He told her to reply quickly......
