The maid had always been worried about being punished by the princess, and after getting the princess's arrangement, she didn't respond first, knelt down all of a sudden, and confessed with tears: "I'm sorry princess, I shouldn't have made an assertion and caused you to be humiliated in front of Mr. Dongfang." ”

The princess looked at the maid who was kneeling on the ground and crying, she felt a little helpless, she really didn't want to punish the maid heavily, after all, she had been following her, but today's arbitrary assertion must not be tolerated.

The princess hung her for a while, and then said: "I have nothing to be humiliated, I originally owed Nalan Jin, but there must be no next time for you to hide from me, go down, remember to go to the General's Mansion early tomorrow morning." ”

After saying that, he ignored the maid kneeling on the ground, and prepared to go to bed under the service of another maid.

The maid knelt on the ground for a long time, and did not get up until her legs were numb, and did not bother the princess again, but silently withdrew.

The princess lay on the collapse, thinking about today's events, and felt that there must be something wrong with the general's mansion, but there was no clear evidence yet, so she could only wait for the general and the general's wife to come to the mansion tomorrow to test it.

Thinking about it, the princess gradually fell asleep.

Soon, the night passed, and early in the morning, the maid came to the general's mansion and asked the general and his wife to go to the princess's mansion as a guest.

Although the general was a little puzzled, he did not refuse the princess's invitation, after all, there had been good cooperation before, and he and his wife were able to tie the knot all thanks to the princess's allocation.

Although the general's wife was a little reluctant, she didn't dare to show it, so she could only follow the general and board the carriage to the princess's mansion.

On the way, the general's wife has been a little nervous, after all, the general and his wife have grown up together, so they naturally understand her, and asked with some doubts: "Qingqing, what's wrong with you?" What's the matter? ”

Seeing the general's question, the general's wife hurriedly concealed the nervousness on her face, and replied with a smile on her face: "I'm fine, isn't this the first time I've gone to the princess's mansion, and it's inevitable that I will be a little nervous when I see the royal princess." ”

The general accepted the explanation of the general's wife, and did not ask any more questions, the carriage came smoothly to the door of the princess's mansion, and the people in the palace led the two to the front hall, prepared tea for the two, and said with some apologies: "Wait a minute, the princess will be there soon." ”

After saying that, the subordinates retreated, only the general and his wife were left in the room, the general's wife looked around, the tension on her face could not be suppressed, the general saw the nervousness of the lady, and quietly stretched out his hand to hold the lady's hand to show comfort.

The princess was sitting at the dresser, with a maid combing her hair, and the butler standing aside to report on the situation in the antechamber.

When the princess had heard this, she did not speak for a long time, and when the maid who had combed her hair had withdrawn, she said, "Let them be left to dry, and after two quarters of an hour you will go and let them go around the garden, and find men to follow them, so that they may not be discovered, and report to me all that they have to say." ”

The butler answered and withdrew, and the princess looked at her face in the mirror and smiled expectantly.

Two quarters of an hour had passed, and the general and his wife were a little anxious and did not dare to move much, and the water in the teacup was drunk.

At this time, the butler came in slowly, as if he had just remembered them here, and apologized with some surprise: "Let the general and the lady wait for a long time, the princess suddenly has something important to deal with, you two are bored sitting here, it is better to go to the garden first." ”

The general was originally a military general, and he didn't have so many thoughts, and it was really boring to sit and drink tea here, so he didn't refuse, but his wife was flustered, and he always felt that something was going to happen.

The housekeeper led the two to the garden and left, the general was just about to take his wife around, the garden of the princess's mansion is not something ordinary people can come over, the general's wife grabbed the general's sleeve, and said with some pleading: "Husband, let's go back to the house, the princess doesn't want to see us, why don't we go back directly." ”

Looking at Madame's face with some fear and eagerness, the general had some doubts in his heart, but he still opened his mouth to reassure: "Why is Madam in such a hurry to go back, the princess must have something to do with us, let's wait for the princess to finish handling things, Qingqing, we haven't walked around the garden together for a long time, the garden of the princess's mansion is so beautiful, let's have a good walk together." ”

After listening to the general's reassurance, and seeing that he was in high spirits, the general's wife was not easy to ruin his interest, so she reluctantly suppressed the worry in her heart and followed the general around the garden.

All the words of the two were heard, and word for word were passed on to the princess who was waiting in the front hall.

"Are you sure you really heard clearly, the general's name is Madame Qingqing? Are you sure you heard me right? After listening to the report of the people below, the princess slapped the table in some anger and stood up and asked.

Seeing that the princess reacted so violently, the messenger carefully recalled what he heard, and said affirmatively: "That's right, princess, I'm sure it's Qingqing." ”

The princess sat back in her chair at once, closed her eyes a little weakly, and when she opened them again, her eyes were full of anger, and she could not have imagined that she had tried to bring about the marriage of the general and his wife, and tried to persuade her father not to break them up, but this result.

"Send someone to the garden immediately, leave the general's wife, let the general leave the mansion, and then ask someone to call Mr. Dongfang to come over to deal with this matter together."

After the princess said indifferently, the next person immediately went out to arrange, and the princess sat alone in the hall, feeling very cold.

The housekeeper quickly found the general and his wife, stopped the two and said very politely: "General's wife, the princess is invited." ”

The general's wife panicked when she heard this, and looked at the general beside her for help, but the general didn't feel anything at all.

The general's wife had no choice but to follow the housekeeper of the princess's mansion and leave, walking on the road and looking back at the general.

When the lady walked away, an attendant came from the other side, who also had complete etiquette, and asked the general to leave the mansion, and the general realized that something was wrong, but although the attendant of the princess's mansion followed etiquette, he was very tough.

The general did not want to offend the princess without knowing what had happened, so he could only follow the attendant outside, wondering what the lady had done to offend the princess as he went.

Halfway through, I happened to see Dongfang Yi who was invited by the princess, and the general had a rare IQ online, and he immediately understood that Dongfang Yi must have come because of his wife.

didn't care about any courtesy, the general walked directly to Dongfang Yi and stopped him, and eagerly pleaded: "Mr. Dongfang, take me to the princess." He even knelt down as he spoke.

Dongfang Yi understood the matter on the way, and hurriedly stopped the general, and without saying much, he took the general directly to find the princess.

The princess was not very surprised to see Dongfang Yi coming over with the general, looking at the general, the emotions in her eyes were a little complicated.

The general was a little anxious to open his mouth to plead with his wife, but he was directly stopped by the princess, and said first: "I know what you want to say, wait until you stand behind the screen, and I will tell you the reason." ”

After speaking, he brought the general behind the screen, and he walked out of the screen with Dongfang Yi.
