Chapter 570: Take Only One Scoop of Drink
Yu Yan thought that if His Royal Highness had a concubine and a side concubine, and married a few more ladies, the princess would not be as fearless as she is now.
It is estimated that when the time comes, he will be careful in doing things, thinking about how to please His Highness, instead of letting His Highness please her like this.
He has been by His Royal Highness's side since he was a child, and he has never seen His Highness care so much about a person, he just dares to think about these thoughts, and he doesn't dare to say them at all, otherwise the princess will not have to pinch him to death!
Yu Yan sighed, braved the north wind, braved the cold and beat the horse, thinking that if he had the identity of His Royal Highness, he would not be like His Highness, he could obviously hug left and right, but he only took one scoop to drink.
Along the way, Yu Yan slandered his two masters in his heart, and just when he was about to freeze, he finally arrived at Zhuangzi.
It's just that before entering Zhuangzi, Yuyan was overwhelmed by everything in front of him.
When he raised his eyes, he saw that new couplets had already been pasted on both sides of the gate, and even the door god had been hung up, could it be that he had misremembered the time?
Isn't it true that people close their doors on the 29th or 30th, and isn't there a 30th this year?
That's not right, he remembered that there were thirty!
This can't be the princess's intention! You must know that as long as the door is closed during the New Year, it generally means that customers are rejected.
Did he turn around and go back, or did he go to the bank? Yuyan is embarrassed!
He lingered in the doorway for a long time, and a few magpies in the tree chirped there, making him feel as if they were laughing at him.
Forget it, it was a knife to stretch out his head, and a knife to shrink his head, and after tying the horse, he stepped up the steps and reached out and knocked on the door.
"Bang bang bang, bang......" knocked more than a dozen times in a row, I thought no one would pay attention to him, but I didn't want the side door to squeak open a crack when he raised his hand again.
The person who came was the little guy who watched the door of Zhuangzi, and he knew Yuyan, so he hurriedly opened the side door and bowed down and said, "My lord, why are you here?" ”
Yu Yan didn't have the patience to spend time with this little guy, so he asked with a sigh, "Is the person in charge there?" ”
He also has some eyes, thinking that he has to go to find out the tone of the steward first, if the princess is angry with His Royal Highness and is in a bad mood to be angry with him, it will be terrible.
If the princess is in a good mood and asks to see him again, it will be easy for him to speak.
At that time, even if the princess can't take it back, it would be good if he could give His Royal Highness a clear answer.
The little guy also knew that he was soft-spoken, and he couldn't climb the big tree of jade inkstone at all, so he didn't dare to annoy the other party, so he hurriedly replied: "The steward is giving New Year's gifts to the tenants in Zhuangzi according to the princess's instructions." ”
"He's not there?" Yu Yan raised his eyebrows, and the moisture exhaled had already frozen into frost on his eyebrows and eyelashes.
Seeing this, the little guy was busy offering courtesy: "If the adult is looking for a steward, you might as well go in and wait, and the little one will help to find the steward and come back to see you." ”
Yu Yan entered the door and said as he walked: "No need, take me to see the princess." ”
Since the person in charge is not there, he can only meet the princess directly, and it is basically impossible to inquire about the news from the people around the princess.
Although it is a depression everywhere in winter, this manor is full of joy, all the people are full of smiles, killing chickens and sheep to prepare for the New Year, and even the horns are cleaned clean.
It's no wonder that in previous years, I didn't live here for the New Year, but this year is different, the princess and the prince came, not only gave three more months of wages, but also gave everyone two sets of new clothes, can everyone not be happy?
Yu Yan's heart sank when he saw this, and his heart looked like he had run away in vain.
Xue'er was playing with Xuanyuan Chen at this time.
Children are the same every day, and now they can sit on their own for a while.
Xue'er asked a carpenter to make a stroller for her, and pushed him to walk around the village to bask in the sun when he had nothing to do.
Today's weather is good, Xue'er is pushing him to walk in the yard, the little guy is happy, every day out of the sun is his happiest time, the giggles spread far and wide, Yuyan has not seen anyone before he hears it.
He straightened up his clothes, and when it was time for the porter to go and pay his respects, he thought a lot more.
He also knows about the day the prince was born, originally he was most afraid of His Royal Highness and the princess, but now there is another one, that is, the little prince.
He follows His Highness and is his confidant, although His Highness has not said many things, he can also guess one or two.
Thinking of that possibility, his blood boiled all over his body.
Few men in this world can resist the temptation of power, and he is no exception.
Just like now, in addition to being respectful to His Highness, those officials in the Northland are also extremely disrespectful to him, the people around His Highness.
If Xiao Shizi can really ...... Even if he succeeds, it will be from His Royal Highness, how much benefit will he get at that time?
Just as he was thinking crookedly, the porter invited him in.
Yu Yan straightened his face and strode into the courtyard.
The princess was standing in the courtyard, next to a small car, in which sat the little prince.
Her makeup is very exquisite, she is wearing a red coat, wearing a white coat, Xiao Shizi and the princess are dressed similarly, only revealing a pair of big black eyes and looking at him curiously, an outsider.
Yu Yan didn't dare to look at it more, and while admiring the princess in her heart, she seemed to be beautiful again, and hurriedly stepped forward respectfully to salute.
I only heard a faint cry, and there was no follow-up.
Yu Yan didn't dare to look directly into Xue'er's eyes, and said with a bow: "Princess Qiyu, Your Royal Highness sent the younger one to pick up the princess and the prince back to the house, I don't know when the princess will be able to leave?" ”
Xue'er smiled faintly: "I'm sorry for you, and I want you to run on a cold day."
However, the palace plans to celebrate the New Year with the prince in Zhuangzi, and I don't want to go back to the palace, so I let you run for nothing. ”
Although Yu Yan was already mentally prepared, he still looked up in amazement and asked, "But how can there be any talk of celebrating the New Year in Zhuangzi!" ”
Xue'er chuckled and said, "Zhuangzi also belongs to the palace, why can't you celebrate the New Year here?" ”
"But, but ......" Before Yu Yan could say the words that had been prepared a long time ago, he heard her continue: "This palace knows that you are also acting on orders, and it is not good for you to explain to Your Highness if you can't take back our mother and son." ”
"That's, that'......" Yuyan nodded busily.
"But the things decided by this palace are difficult to change, in order not to embarrass you, this palace will let Mo Shijiu go back with you to report to His Royal Highness, do you think this is good?" Xue'er always has a warm smile on her face, just like the warm sun of Sanchun, but in Yuyan's eyes, it is full of distance.
In the past, the princess rarely talked to him, and even if there was an intersection, there was no sense of alienation from the superiors.
But this time Yu Yan's feeling was different, he always felt that the princess seemed to be a different person.
