Chapter 20 Gift-giving

was said by Emperor Liu's concubine, and the eldest princess of Yongshou didn't think that it was really good for Sister Ying to marry Xiao Jun. Sister Ying's family background is not bad, but her temperament is too weak, but she is not suitable to be the princess and concubine. Xiao Jun really doesn't like girls with too strong personalities, Sister Ying'er is a relative of the Liu family, and second, she has an outstanding appearance and a soft temperament, and if she wants to be a side concubine, she will be decent, and Xiao Jun will definitely be able to treat him well.

Xiao Jun was the youngest of the princes who grew up under the knees of Emperor Chu, he was full of playfulness without the slightest ambition, and Emperor Chu and Emperor Liu's concubines were more willing to train him to be a rich and idle king.

"You think so, after all, you have to marry your own family to better take care of Sister Ying's future." The eldest princess of Yongshou thought for a while and said. "I don't mention anything else, it's all my own children, if both children are willing, that's the best, if it's reluctant, it's just that, after all, it's relative to live a life, don't force it."

"What my mother said is that I definitely can't force Sister Ying'er to marry Jun'er." Concubine Liu Huang smiled helplessly.

"Imperial Concubine Niangniang, where is the princess?" Ouyang suddenly asked.

"Don't mention her, Your Majesty didn't take Jun'er off for a while a few days ago because of the surprise of the horse. Yu'er went to the household department and didn't have time to look at him, so he came to look for Xuan'er every day, and the two of them either went to the horse farm to ride horses and shoot arrows, or they were running around the palace, and Xuan'er's temperament didn't know how much he had taken him. "Speaking of this pair of brothers and sisters, Concubine Liu Huang can't help but have a headache." Isn't this the day when the eldest princess who was grounded in Qingjing Xuan was lifted? I originally wanted to let people hold down Xuan'er early in the morning to prevent her from running around, but who knew that this lazy girl was gone early in the morning, and then asked the guards outside the gate of Yihua Palace to know that Jun'er came to Yihua Palace to pick up Xuan'er before dawn, presumably these two children are already waiting outside the door of Qingjingxuan. ”

"Hahaha, these two kids." When the eldest princess of Yongshou heard this, she couldn't help it and laughed out loud. "Anyway, it's all in the palace, there won't be any chaos, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Yes, Niangniang, Her Royal Highness the princess is very smart and clever, and she will definitely be measured."

"If you are really worried, let the people in your palace go to Qingjingxuan to spread the word, saying that my two aunts and I have entered the palace, and Xuan'er will definitely come back if she is sensible."

Concubine Liu Huang guessed correctly, at this time, Xiao Jun and Xiao Xuan were guarding outside Qingjing Xuan, and Concubine Chen, who came early in the morning to take the eldest princess back to Yuxiu Palace, saw their brother and sister from a distance and also had a headache.

"I've seen Concubine Chen." Xiao Jun first saw Concubine Chen, who brought people here, and hurriedly stabbed Xiao Xuan with her arm, and Xiao Xuan hurriedly smiled and stepped forward.

Rao knew that it was the little girl in front of her who deliberately calculated her daughter, and her daughter would be punished by His Majesty and imprisoned in Qingjingxuan for half a year. The daughter is stubborn, and His Majesty also sent four decent and willful grandmothers to discipline her daughter, and also sent two female flag guards to watch her daughter. His Majesty also ordered that no one should be allowed to visit, and she couldn't eat or sleep for half a year.

But she also knew that even if she tied her daughter to herself, her status in His Majesty's mind would not be less than one-tenth of hers. Not to mention that Emperor Liu's concubine has been favored since she entered the palace to serve, but what about herself, if it weren't for the queen sitting on the mountain and giving birth to His Majesty's first daughter, she barely got a concubine, and now the favor is also coming to an end, and the number of times Your Majesty comes to her Yuxiu Palace every year can be counted with one hand.

"It turned out to be the second princess." So even if she was unhappy, after seeing Xiao Xuan's smiling face, Concubine Chen could only squeeze out a little smile to deal with Xiao Xuan. "The Sixth Prince has also arrived?"

"Yes, Concubine Chen." Xiao Jun stepped forward with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth. Bow your hand to Concubine Chen. "I know that today is a good day for my eldest sister to lift the ban, and it just so happens that I am free today, so I will specially bring Xuan'er to pick up my eldest sister. Xuan'er has always been concerned about her sister, and she also ordered someone to prepare a gift. ”

Xiao Jun raised her eyebrows as she said and gave Xiao Xuan a look, and Xiao Xuan immediately waved her hand to let the green forest behind her come forward. Holding a piece of cloth in his hand, Lu Lin stared at Concubine Chen's sudden face and stepped forward.

"Concubine Chen, I still remember, the eldest sister likes Yuehuajin very much." Xiao Xuan blinked his eyes seemingly sincerely, and said to Concubine Chen. "I went to the warehouse yesterday and picked out a crimson one, I think the big sister will definitely like it, are you right, Concubine Chen?"

Concubine Chen looked at the moon brocade that the green forest held in front of her, and under the sunlight, the whole moon brocade was glowing with the brilliance of the moon. The brilliance was soft and beautiful, and she only felt extremely dazzling in Concubine Chen's eyes.

"Thank you, Second Princess." Concubine Chen was not as impulsive and impatient as Xiao Lu, she could only hold back her breath, and with a smile she ordered someone to step forward and take the Yuehua brocade from the green forest. "It's just that Lu'er has been in Qingjingxuan for half a year, and there are probably a lot of things to pack, and I don't know how long it will take to come out. I'm waiting here, the sixth prince and the second princess might as well leave first so as not to get tired of waiting. When Lu'er comes out, I will convey your kindness to her. ”

"Concubine Chen's words are too obvious, the eldest sister and I and Xuan'er are brothers and sisters born from the same father." Xiao Jun couldn't help but smile and stepped forward and said. "Not to mention standing for a while longer, it's nothing to wait here for another hour or two."

Concubine Chen had nothing to say for a while, and the brother and sister in front of her made up their minds to stay, where could they really let them stay. Xiao Lu was fined for half a year because of Xiao Xuan, if she waited for her to see Xiao Xuan again when she came out of Qingjingxuan, there might be some chaos at that time.

But Xiao Xuan and Xiao Jun both made up their minds to stay, and Rao is Concubine Chen was reluctant to leave.

Concubine Chen was so anxious that she was about to sweat, and the people sent by Yihua Palace to find Xiao Xuan and Xiao Jun came to find her, but they solved Concubine Chen's difficulties.

"The slave has seen Concubine Chen." The person who came was Jin Chuan, the little palace maid under Suihong. "The sixth prince, the second princess, today the eldest princess of Yongshou and the two wives in the house have entered the palace. The imperial concubine Niangniang told me to come out to find the two highnesses, and asked me to ask the two highnesses to go back and say hello to the eldest princess. ”

"Ah, it turned out that the eldest princess of Yongshou and the two ladies of the eldest princess's mansion have entered the palace." Concubine Chen breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly persuaded. "If you want me to say, the two highnesses must not let the eldest princess of Yongshou wait in the Yihua Palace for the sake of Lu'er."

"That's really no way, my grandmother and two aunts have entered the palace, they are all elders, and my brother and I should naturally go to ask for peace and visit." Xiao Xuan and Xiao Jun glanced at each other before speaking. "It's a pity that I can't wait for the big sister to come out."

"If it's not in the way, the two highnesses can leave first." Concubine Chen watched the voices of people gradually coming from the gate of Qingjingxuan, and she only wished that Xiao Xuan and Xiao Jun could leave immediately, and she was full of promises. "When Lu'er comes out, I will definitely inform the two highnesses of their kindness."

"Concubine Chen is really generous." Xiao Jun said with a smile. "Then my brother and sister will leave first, and I will go to Yuxiu Palace to visit my eldest sister in two days."

Seeing that Xiao Xuan and Xiao Jun had finally gone far, Concubine Chen was relieved.

When Concubine Chen couldn't see Xiao Xuan and Xiao Jun at all, the door of Qingjingxuan finally opened, and the four grandmothers walked out of it with Xiao Lu in their arms.

Concubine Chen hasn't seen her daughter for half a year.

"Lu'er......" Concubine Chen stepped forward quickly, stretched out her hand to hug Xiao Lu, and tears were raining down before she could say anything.

Half a year has passed, Xiao Lu has lost a lot of weight, and there is still a layer of blue and black under her eyes.

"The slave maid and the others have seen Concubine Chen." The four grandmothers stepped forward to salute Concubine Chen. "Say hello to Concubine Chen."

"Mammies don't have to be polite." Concubine Chen touched her daughter's obviously thinner cheeks, and only felt that it must be the four grandmothers who had treated Xiao Lu for some reason in half a year, but the four grandmothers were all old people in the palace, very decent, she could only say with tears in her eyes. "Mammas, you can go back to Your Majesty, I'm going to take the eldest princess back first."

"Concubine Chen, motherly and slow." One of the leading grandmothers shouted to Concubine Chen, who wanted to take Xiao Lu away. "Your Majesty made a decree yesterday, saying that after the eldest princess lifts the ban, the four of us don't have to go back to the original place to be on an errand, and Your Majesty ordered the four of us to serve by the eldest princess's side in the future."

Xiao Xuan and Xiao Jun returned to Yuxiu Palace.

"I've seen two aunts." After Xiao Xuan greeted the He family and the Ouyang family, he threw himself into the arms of the eldest princess of Yongshou. "Grandmother, Xuan'er misses you to death."

"Oops, you girl." The eldest princess of Yongshou patted Xiao Xuan's back and said with a smile on her face.

"I've seen two aunts." Xiao Jun entered the hall slightly behind Xiao Xuan's footsteps. "I've seen my grandmother."

Xiao Jun had a sweet mouth, sat beside the eldest princess of Yongshou, and coaxed the eldest princess of Yongshou and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the He family and the Ouyang family to laugh together with Xiao Xuan.

"You two ran out early in the morning, did you find Qingjingxuan? I heard Suihong say, you went to the warehouse yesterday and turned over a Yuehua brocade. "Emperor Liu's concubine interrupted the flesh on that end, and raised her eyebrows at Xiao Xuan." How many times have you been told not to provoke her, but you just don't listen. ”

"Grandmother." Xiao Xuan pouted and snuggled in the arms of the eldest princess of Yongshou, not looking at the face of Emperor Liu's concubine.

"You talk when the child is not with you." The eldest princess of Yongshou protected Xiao Xuan with her hand, glared at Emperor Liu's concubine and said. "As soon as the child comes back, you start to count. My granddaughter said that she wanted to return her a horse of Yuehua Brocade, naturally she had to do what she said, why are you reluctant to give up that one Yuehua Brocade? Do you want to wait for me to return home, and send some more into the palace to fill the vacancy in your palace? ”

"Mother, you protect her." Concubine Liu was helpless. "Every time she makes a mistake, she goes to you, you protect you regardless of the reason, and how can I teach her?"
