Chapter 67
Facing Qi Jingyang's arrival, Zhao Peiyu was afraid, she was always worried that she would do something wrong to make him unhappy, she was afraid to see him.
Han Yao didn't understand Zhao Peiyu's mood at this moment, she always felt that the prince came to see Zhao Peiyu in Crane Garden, thinking of Zhao Peiyu.
Even if the prince accidentally remembered that there was such a princess in the East Palace, it was better than the prince lingering in the courtyards of other little ladies in the past.
In the East Palace, I respect the crown princess, but where there are women, there is war, those little ladies are always talking about Zhao Peiyu behind their backs, and many times they rely on their own favor to bully the palace people in Heyuan, which is really infuriating.
Zhao Peiyu led the palace people of Heyuan to wait for Qi Jingyang at the gate of the courtyard, her heart was full of apprehension and uneasiness, and the joy that she usually thought of Qi Jingyang coming to see her was gone at this time.
"The concubines are waiting for His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is safe." Seeing that Qi Jingyang was approaching, Zhao Peiyu knelt down and bowed down without being humble or arrogant.
Qi Jingyang looked at her and wanted to help her up, but it was difficult to put down the shelf he was holding, so he had to say indifferently: "Get up." ”
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie." Zhao Peiyu stood up with Han Yao's support, she stood aside expressionlessly, her eyes didn't dare to look directly at the prince, so she had to stare directly at the ground.
In the early spring morning, the sun has not yet awakened the entire East Palace, and the cool spring breeze blows Zhao Peiyu's sideburns hair, blows the corners of her skirt with jade beads, and blows her thin body.
Zhao Peiyu stood in the spring breeze, with only a jade hairpin simply inserted into her bun, the whole person was pure and amazing, but extremely weak, and the aggrieved appearance of lowering her eyelids aroused Qi Jingyang's desire to protect.
He took his eyes off Zhao Peiyu stiffly, cleared his throat, and said, "Let's have breakfast together." ”
Kong Yan hurriedly led the maid behind him into the main hall of the Crane Garden, and when the prince and the princess came in, the dining table was already full of exquisite dishes, and the fragrance was overflowing.
Qi Jingyang sat on the main seat and glanced at Zhao Peiyu, and Han Yao hurriedly helped Zhao Peiyu to take a seat.
During the banquet, the two of them only had a simple meal and did not communicate much.
"Are you feeling better?" Qi Jingyang asked suddenly.
Zhao Peiyu paused the chopsticks that were picking up the vegetables, looked at Qi Jingyang, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Qi Jingyang also felt that he was clueless when he asked, so he simply added: "I heard Han Yao say that you are not in good health, and you have been busy with official business recently, so I couldn't come and take a look." The weather is still so cold, you have to pay more attention to your body, don't catch a cold again. ”
Suddenly, the softness in Zhao Peiyu's heart was stirred, she hadn't heard this kind of greeting for a long time.
Zhao Peiyu's eyes were slightly red in an instant, tears filled her eyes, and she was about to fall, she hurriedly lowered her head and stirred the slightly steaming porridge in the bowl, and said, "Thank you for your concern, the concubine is much better." ”
When she said this, tears flowed out very uncontrollably, and she quickly turned her head away, took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Han Yao looked at this scene, and her heart hurt solidly.
This lord of Yu, who is in Shu and can call the wind and rain in Shu with the favor of the prince, how did she marry into the East Palace and become like this, a greeting can make her cry, you know, she used to be a woman who was loved by three thousand.
After Zhao Peiyu wiped away her tears, she turned around and smiled at Qi Jingyang and said, "This porridge is too hot." As he spoke, he summoned Han Yao behind him to bring the porridge down.
Qi Jingyang touched the porridge in front of him with his hand, it was obvious that it was just warm...
Qi Jingyang's sudden concern made the barriers that were gradually built up in Zhao Peiyu's heart collapse little by little, and she sat in front of Qi Jingyang without reservation again, with him in her heart and eyes.
After Zhao Peiyu ordered her porridge to be removed, Han Yao was worried that her master would be embarrassed, so she presented a new tea of Biluochun from behind, which was specially sent by the king of Shuzhong.
Qi Jingyang was still drinking the porridge slowly, Zhao Peiyu was sitting on the side to prepare vegetables for him, and Han Yao brought Biluochun, she poured a cup for Qi Jingyang first, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is the Biluochun that the concubine's father got from Jiangnan, it is this year's new tea, you can taste it." ”
Zhao Peiyu has long lost Fang Cai's indifferent appearance, and has been replaced by her who was thinking about Qi Jingyang in her early years, or rather, she has always been like this.
Qi Jingyang looked at the clear soup, then took a sip of tea, and just about to boast, Rongfu entered the Crane Garden.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince." Rong Fu hurriedly ran in and interrupted Qi Jingyang.
Zhao Peiyu looked at Rongfu's anxious appearance, and her smile suddenly froze on her face.
Qi Jingyang frowned and asked, "Why are you so flustered!?" ”
Rong Fu looked at this long-lost picture of harmony, hesitated and knelt on the ground, trembling and said: "Prince Jing and Miss Liang are hereby married in three days..."
Qi Jingyang's brows tightened, wrinkled into a Sichuan character, he put down the teacup heavily, and snorted on the dinner table: My father is too accustomed to Concubine Mei and King Jing, and the marriage news that has been announced for a long time has been changed when he says it!
Seeing that Qi Jingyang didn't speak, but the atmosphere in the hall became solemn, Zhao Peiyu looked at Qi Jingyang, she knew that he was very angry.
Zhao Peiyu slowly stood up and knelt beside Qi Jingyang, and the palace people in the palace also knelt down, she said: "The concubine is not doing well, and she has not been able to share the worries of His Royal Highness the Prince, and I hope His Royal Highness will calm his anger." ”
She was very scared, she was worried that the prince would be angry and blame her for this, but could she be a woman who could control this kind of thing?
Qi Jingyang closed his eyes, sighed deeply, and finally reached out to help Zhao Peiyu up, and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you are the crown princess, at any time, don't kneel down at every turn, you and I are husband and wife, there is no need for this between husband and wife." ”
Qi Jingzhuo knew that King Jing's Mansion and General Jianwei's Mansion would marry sooner or later, and the current marriage change period was just earlier, and the most important thing at the moment was to consolidate his own power, and the Chinese dynasty had his uncle Lu Gaohong and his party, and Wu naturally was indispensable to the king of Shuzhong, who defended the territory for the country, although he was in Shuzhong, his strength should not be underestimated, and he needed Zhao Peiyu's help.
It is rare for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be so warm to the crown princess, and the maids and eunuchs present also muttered in their hearts, but Rongfu and Kong Yan understood in their hearts what the prince thought.
Zhao Peiyu was very moved, she felt that her forbearance and persistence over the years had been rewarded, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally saw her good, her childhood boy, finally back...

Prime Minister's Office.
Lu Gaohong had a small gathering in a teahouse with several colleagues who went to Beijing to report on their work, and he had already heard the news of the emperor's decree to change the marriage date, and he did not have much opinion on this matter.
Lu Huiling heard the news that His Royal Highness King Jing would marry three days later, and was furious in the house.
"Miss! Miss, don't fall! A few maids who were waiting for Lu Huiling followed her to stop her, lest she drop a few more pieces of porcelain.
Lu Huiling struggled to knock down a shelf with a vase, and with the sound of "ping pong", the vase shattered, and she scolded: "Liang Huanqing, that slut!" Dare to rob Miss Ben! She deserves it too? A daughter born to a reckless man! Yes! I'm! ”
Seeing that Lu Huiling picked up the Eight Treasure Box again and was about to fall to the ground, several maids hurriedly stopped her, crying and begging: "Miss, don't fall, if you fall again, there are no more useless things in this room..."
"Get out of the way for Miss Ben! A few of you! If you stop me again, be careful that I will drop you too! "Lu Huiling has a big temper and a fiery temperament, and she doesn't look like a girl raised by a literati at all.
As he spoke, the eight-treasure box also broke into several petals.
After making noise for a long time, Lu Huiling lay on the bed and cried, and muttered: "Why not me!" Why! ”
The movement in the backyard was so loud, it naturally startled Mrs. Lu, who was worshipping the Buddha in the Buddhist hall.
As soon as Mrs. Lu entered Lu Huiling's courtyard, she saw a house full of wolves.
The maids were kneeling on the ground to clean up, and when they saw Madame coming, they rushed up like seeing a savior: "Madam, Madame, please persuade Miss." ”
