196 Welcome to the king
Cai Yu gently rubbed her master's forehead to relieve her brain pain. and softly reassured, "Kang Liangdi is that kind of person, why should the master be as knowledgeable as her." Besides, she will make trouble with whatever she has in her temperament, but we are not afraid. β
Wang Jingshu closed her eyes and recuperated, but listened carefully to her words, and knew that what Cai Yu said was right, so she followed closely, "I'm afraid...... Those, silent! β
"Yes, master. You can wait for the prince to come back with peace of mind, this Kang Liangdi will no longer find you unhappy. β
Having said that, it will take half a month for the prince to arrive in Pingzhou.
Wang Jingshu was really tired of Kang's, and inevitably complained, "She Kang's can't settle down one day!" β
Cai Yu simply mentioned, "Then the master will go with her." When the time comes, someone will tell the prince! β
The room was silent, except for the tinkling of the beaded curtains in the breeze outside. After a while, the pensive Wang Jingshu suddenly opened her eyes, "Then let her make trouble, I can't control it." β
Cai Yu smiled silently.
Then Wang Jingshu really didn't care about Kang's anymore, no matter how she made a fuss in her yard, even if she beat gongs and drums, it had nothing to do with her.
But once again, Xiao came back from outside, and the family members in Kang Liangdi's yard were moving the big drum inside, and seeing that the situation was not right, they had to go into the main room and report to Wang Jingshu, "Master, the family members over there are moving the big drum." The servant saw that the situation was not right, and it was the right person to take care of it. Wouldn't it be a joke for the people to see the king's jokes! β
"You don't want that, do you?"
This is naturally not what Wang Jingshu wants, but this Kang's, what does she want to do? "I'll go and see, what is going on with her Kang?" After thinking about it, I asked Pinxiu to inquire, what do you want to move the drum?
And Pin Wei couldn't stop laughing while making tea, "Wouldn't it be that you have to beat the drum in the middle of the night and disturb people's dreams?" β
Pinxi, who was standing with her, pushed her and signaled her to shut up, didn't she see her master's face sink down...... Pinwei then fell silent.
Wang Jingshu's face sank was not for Pinwei's joke, and she sighed lightly after all, "There are still four or five days before the prince will arrive in Pingzhou, and I have already called the guards to greet him." This Kang's can't stop for half a moment. β
No one in the room dared to let out the atmosphere.
are waiting for Pinxiu to find out the news.
I don't know how long it took, about an hour, Pinxiu came back, "Kang Liangdi's yard was too tight, and the maid really couldn't find out anything at first, but then the maid came back from the complaint of a small servant." The little guy had just finished moving the drum and was complaining that Liangdi had no reward. What to say after that...... It seems that Kang Liangdi wants to beat the drum to attract the attention of the prince. She didn't dare to say some of the original words of complaint.
Oh β that's a good idea.
"Beat the drum to get the attention of the prince?" Wang Jingshu couldn't help but laugh dumbly, "This is really a good idea." The women of this palace can sing and dance at most, and no one will definitely beat the big drum, and even those who can do it dare not do it. It looks really fresh. β
The maids laughed.
Wang Jingshu made a final decision, "Okay, then don't worry about it." "As long as Kang's mind is on the prince and he doesn't come to trouble her, she will naturally not look for her mistakes." Out of sight is pure! Let her go, she will knock if she wants. β
Soon another three or five days passed, and the guards quickly reported that the prince and others had arrived in the territory of Qicheng, and they would arrive at King Ning's mansion in the evening.
After so many days, they finally arrived.
Wang Jingshu suppressed the excitement and joy in her heart, and told all her subordinates to cheer up and arrange everything.
The whole palace was immediately busy, and it was also full of festivities.
Cai Yu knew that the master had been waiting for a long time, although she didn't say, "Master, the prince has finally arrived." β
Wang Jingshu's face couldn't contain her joy.
An hour, an hour, and another hour.
It was like wrenching her fingers for another hour, almost making Wang Jingshu sit on pins and needles, and told her to do this, in fact, she just wanted to find something to do. Suddenly, I heard the maid outside the house report, "Master, Kang Liangdi is here-"
At this time, Wang Jingshu was not the slightest dissatisfied with Kang's arrival, "Please come in, and then go to the backyard to pass the word: Miss Rong." Tell her to come out dressed properlyβ"
"Yes."
At this moment, Kang Yixuan also came with proper makeup, and Lian stepped in and bowed to Yingying.
Wang Jingshu, who was sitting in the main seat, smiled and laughed, and it seemed that the advice from the last time had some effect after not seeing it for more than ten days, "Sister, sit down." The prince is almost here, let's welcome the prince together. β
No matter how much disgrace there was before, it should be harmonious at this time, not to mention that even Kang Yixuan is too lazy to argue at this moment, so Wang Jingshu might as well sell some face......
After about a stick of incense, Rong Ruofen hurried from the backyard, and she had only entered the house for less than a quarter of an hour. There are guards outside the main courtyard who report again: The prince has arrived at Agarwood Streetββ
In the center of Agarwood Street is the main gate of King Ning's Mansion.
Sure enough, it was soon.
When Caiyu heard this, she immediately asked, "Do you want to go out to greet the princess?" β
Wang Jingshu had already thought about it, "Open the door of the mansion to welcome the princeββ"
But Kang Yixuan felt that it was inappropriate to do this, and he couldn't help but quarrel again, "It's true to open the door of the mansion to welcome the prince, but there are still those concubines, why should they be asked to go through the main gate!" β
This is all because Kang Liangdi entered at the beginning, although Ah Guang personally invited him, but he finally walked through the side door. In this way, she naturally felt that it was inappropriate for those concubines to go through the main gate.
Wang Jingshu was very anxious, too lazy to talk to Kang Yixuan, and didn't want to care about those courtesies, "Then you mean to let the prince enter through the main gate and let others enter through the side door, right?" He added, "Put away your thoughts that you shouldn't have, and it's most important to welcome the prince today." If he is not happy, what do I think you will do? β
Kang Yixuan sighed and shut up.
Seeing that the atmosphere was calm, Caiyu simply interjected, "Master, are you going to greet you?" β
"Then let's go."
Wang Jingshu got up and walked forward, Kang Yixuan did not show weakness, and followed closely behind her, followed by Rong Ruofen, and then the maids...... A group of people in the house.
All the way to the main gate of the palace.
Soon arrived at the main gate, and the door of the house was wide open. Just waiting to welcome the new master.
Wang Jingshu and Kang Yixuan stood still at the door, and the rest of the people knelt by the door, column after column, kneeling on the ground. Because the prince came back today, the entire agarwood street was cleaned, and there was not even an ant at this time, let alone the people passing by.
After a while, I saw several carriages rushing to the palace, thinking that it must be the prince and others.
Soon the carriage stopped, and Ah Sui was the first to dismount and stood still, shouting, "The prince has arrived-"
At this moment, a prince got out of the carriage.
Zhu Pei: It's rare that he hasn't ridden a horse today.
Wang Jingshu immediately bowed to Kang Yixuan, and today she wore the princess's auspicious clothes, which looked more dignified, "Princess Wang and Liangdi Kang greet the prince, please be safe." β
Then everyone else did the same and bowed down in the same way.
Zhu Pei was obviously shocked, why is Kang Liangdi here? But it was still rare to step forward and personally help the princess, "The princess doesn't have to be polite, you have worked hard these days." β
Wang Jingshu only smiled and excused herself, but she didn't dare to take credit. Everyone knows that it's just a matter of face-to-face effort, and both of them know it.
Then Zhu Peicai called Kang Yixuan, and then called a group of people.
Immediately, Concubine Liangdi, Zhaoxun and others all got down from their respective carriages, and it was not rude for them not to get out of the carriage, but they did not dare to accept the princess's bow to the princess. Now after the ceremony, he wants to get out of the carriage and meet the princess one by one.
I never thought that Kang Liangdi was here...... Shouldn't she be in the palace? Everyone was stunned.
However, Chen Eryan reacted quickly, and immediately stepped forward to bow to Yingying, "Concubine Chen respectfully invites the princess's master, Jin Anββ"
Then all the concubines stepped forward one by one to meet the princess's master.
Wang Jingshu smiled and excused herself, "I haven't seen you sisters for a long time, so you don't need to be polite." Immediately welcomed Zhu Pei inside, "Lord, since I know that you are about to arrive in Pingzhou, the concubine has decorated the palace with a new look, what do you think?" If there is anything that needs to be changed, just ask, and the concubine will correct it one by one. β
Zhu Pei looked around, the whole Ning Wangfu was also his first time, but he had heard some of the people who rebuilt the palace mentioned before, and he was not too satisfied with this layout, the courtyard houses overlapping in the mansion gate, so many courtyard houses were boring to look at, this was built by the old prince, and Zhu Pei didn't say much. It's really hard for the princess to decorate such a dull courtyard, "Okay, that's it for now, if there is anything to be changed, we will discuss it later." β
Wang Jingshu responded, "The prince and his sisters have been rushing all the way, and the concubine has ordered the kitchen to prepare a reception banquet, please move to the front yard." The front yard is also your own residence. As for the residence of the younger sisters, the concubines are also arranged. β
"It's evening now, and the reception banquet is not in a hurry, but it can be changed to tomorrow. You should arrange them all first, and you should wash the dust and bathe and change your clothes when you are tired all the way. β
Wang Jingshu replied again, and immediately saw Zhu Pei taking Aguang and Asui to the front yard alone, she looked at his departing back, and didn't know whether to follow or retreat for a while? I don't know if he was tired or didn't want to talk to her at all?
Kang Yixuan, who was standing behind him, snorted softly, "Since the prince has spoken, then the banquet will be changed to tomorrow, and it just so happens that the prince is also tired." I wonder if the prince is angry with the master's urgent arrangement? This is not the fatigue of the prince who travels all the way. As he spoke, he was about to retire, "That's it, I'll go back first, anyway, I won't have any reception banquet today." "Immediately left.
Wang Jingshu's face instantly turned blue and white, and finally she smiled without blood, and she lost a big face again. Inhale softly and give orders to do whatever people have to do...... Then he turned to look at the concubines.
As soon as Kang Yixuan left, the first person was Concubine Chen. Seeing that they were tired one by one, they thought again and again, "Except for the side concubine's sister who stays, the rest of the sisters, please go with Caiyu to stay in their respective residences, everything has been arranged." He gently instructed, "I didn't think about the reception banquet carefully, and I immediately asked someone to change the date." You don't have to come to me these days to settle down in the morning and dusk, you go back to your yard to rest, and if you are not satisfied, you can tell my maids. In addition, the weather in the north is colder than in the south, and the eating habits are different, remember to take care of your body, and if there is any discomfort, you should immediately report to the postponement of medical medicine. β
"Thank you for your care." When they arrived in a place where they were unfamiliar with life, and there was such a thing as Kang's, coupled with the princess's gentleness and compassion, everyone obediently obeyed the princess's arrangement, and was led by the jade maid beside the princess to their own yard.
Only Chen Eryan was left behind, Wang Jingshu took her hand and walked in, like a sister who hadn't seen her for a long time, chatting while walking, "I know you're tired too, so I won't delay you too much." It's just that your courtyard, I didn't arrange it, but asked you to choose it yourself, those courtyards are the side concubines who live in the grade, and you are a side concubine in our house, I simply asked you to pick it yourself. After another pause, "Thanks to you taking care of my affairs for a few months along the way, I will definitely ask the prince to reward you." From now on, you will follow me as an assistant, and I will not give you the time to be lazy. β
"It's cold in the north, your body has always been weak, but you have to keep warm, in fact, I think the courtyard house in the east is the best. But it's up to you to like it. Although the courtyard is newly decorated, if you don't like it, just dismantle it and renovate it, as for your dowry is temporarily placed in the east courtyard, and when you settle down on the residence, it is not too late to move. β
"There are also the maids in the courtyard, you are a side concubine, it stands to reason that it is seven, but you have two first-class maids, so just pick five more, they are all third-class maids at first, if you have meritorious service in the future, you can decide the promotion yourself. The second and third classes are all in the character row, and only the first class can return to the name of the family. β
Listening to Chen Eryan's heart, no one has cared about her like this for a long time, and she is serving the same husband with the princess, it stands to reason that the princess is good on the surface, but these words are extremely warm to her in a strange place, just like a sister, "Sister Princess treats me so well...... It's really all about it. β
Wang Jingshu smiled slightly, "You call me Sister Princess, no better than her, I am willing to say this sincerely." Then he asked again: "I heard how the Zhao family lowered Zhao Xun?" Originally, I remembered that she was promoted to the rank of Liangdi. β
Chen Eryan didn't add oil and vinegar, but simply said, "She fought with the Guo family in public, and it was her first move, and the prince was angry, so she withdrew her Liangdi grade and fined her a year of silver." β
Wang Jingshu responded, Zhao returned to the Zhaoxun grade from Liangdi, which was not a bad thing for her, in fact, this matter was also mentioned in Yan Chengjian's letter before. Later, when there were many things, maybe she didn't pay much attention to it, "So, Liu, what's going on?" β
Chen Eryan didn't dare to look at the princess's eyes, "It's the prince who went out to meet the Liu family and threatened to accept her." At this point, it is not good to make the prince lose his trust, and if he does not welcome it, it will ruin the reputation of other girls, so I took the Liu family into the courtyard of Bangshui Town, and later the Liu family became Zhaoxun. "Suddenly, there is a silent concubine room in the backyard, and everyone will ask clearly, maybe the princess is very uncomfortable at the moment.
But Wang Jingshu had already seen through everything, and asked calmly, "Are you sure that this matter has nothing to do with you?" β
After a while, Chen Eryan woke up from her stunned mind, and hesitated, "Princess... Sister ......"
