Although the two don't have much contact on weekdays, they still have a good relationship on their faces, and they greeted each other with a smile, and the ninth princess behind them is a junior, and she hurriedly came forward to perform a junior salute.
"Auntie, Xiao Jiu hasn't seen you for a long time. How are you doing? The ninth princess asked with a smile, "Aunt can see that Xiao Jiu doesn't say it, look at your good looks, how can there be a bad reason?" ”
The eldest princess showed a headache, "My aunt was originally fine, but when I saw you little monkey, my aunt was not very good." ”
"How can there be such a thing as you, aunt." The little princess pretended to be displeased and pouted, "When I was a child, people were a little naughty and broke a lot of your good things, isn't that ignorant people, now that people have grown up, my aunt still looks at people like this, I don't want to follow." ”
"Linglong." Concubine Shu glanced at her with disgust. "Speak well, don't mess with your aunt."
"The sun is so big, how can you stand here and talk, let's go into the house." The eldest princess invited the mother and daughter of Shuguifei to get into the sedan chair.
The sedan chair went all the way to the main room, and when she entered the house with a smile, the ninth princess immediately called out exaggeratedly, "Wow, it's still the coolest place for my aunt." ”
The eldest princess enjoyed it so much. This enjoyment requires silver, although she has the imperial court to support, but the silver of the imperial court is not enough for her to squander, fortunately, the eldest princess has never been a noble person with money as dung, and she bought a manor. All are doing very well. It was precisely because the eldest princess refused to use the silver she earned to support Changxinhou's concubines, and even refused to spend a broken silver on them, which led to her and Changxinhou's separation for more than ten years.
The eldest princess with silver naturally has the capital to squander, and there are four or five large ice basins in her room alone, compared to the blazing temperature outside, this room is no worse than any lord in the palace.
"Aunt is so comfortable here, you don't want to go back to the palace, how about staying here with your aunt?" The eldest princess joked.
The ninth princess smiled and said, "Linglong also wants to stay here to accompany her aunt, but you now have a baby daughter." Where do you need Linglong to accompany you? ”
The eldest princess seemed to be stunned, raised her eyebrows and said, "Yo, Linglong even knows this?" ”
The ninth princess was about to speak, but Concubine Shu had already taken over with a smile, "Your Majesty heard that the eldest princess recently recognized her nominal daughter, and she was very curious, so let our mother and daughter specially send you a congratulatory ceremony." It's just that Your Majesty also has something to say, the eldest princess recognized such an important matter as a righteous daughter, and His Majesty actually learned about it from other people's mouths, so it is inevitable that he will be a little sad. ”
The ninth princess looked at Concubine Shu in a daze.
Concubine Shu glanced at her inadvertently, and her gentle and smiling eyes fell on her, but she was inexplicably uneasy in her heart, and her mouth that wanted to open was involuntarily closed, but the doubts in her heart always lingered---- why did the concubine lie? It was obvious that she was coming, and it was she who told her father that her father would know about her aunt's recognition of her daughter, why did this matter completely change when it came to the mouth of the mother?
When the eldest princess heard this, she frowned slightly, and soon laughed again, "It's just a little thing, where is the need to alarm Your Majesty, he is so busy, and he still makes him worry about this little thing in my house, it's not my imperial sister." ”
Concubine Shu Guifei hurriedly asked someone to bring the congratulatory gifts up, telling the eldest princess which ones were given by Baili Huang and which ones she prepared, and finally, she took a square rosewood makeup box in the hands of the palace maid, "This is what I gave to that girl, I don't know if she likes it or not?" ”
When she said this, the eldest princess naturally didn't want to hide it anymore and didn't let Ruotang come out to see people, so she had to say, "I'll let her come over and thank you." ”
After all, there are still some drums in my heart, but there is no other way to do it now. Aju chattered.
……
"The concubine and the ninth princess are here in the house?" Ruotang, who was sitting by the window and embroidering carefully, raised his head.
Not unsurprised. She thought that Concubine Shu was busy mending her already problematic relationship with Bai Lihuang at this time, and she didn't want her to be able to free up her hands to clean herself up.
The maid who came to pay the prayer whispered: "The eldest princess said, if you don't want to go, just pretend to be sick." ”
Ruotang thought about it and said with a smile: "Then Sister Lao replied, I used a bowl of ice bowls last night, and I ran all night, and it is really difficult to see nobles at this time." ”
The little maid hurriedly answered, sleeved the broken silver handed to her by Cai Qing, and happily ran back to reply.
Ruotang threw away the work in his hand and instructed Cai Qingdao: "Since we are sick, we must look like we are sick, so let's get up quickly." ”
"Why prepare? Could it be that the lady concubine still wants to come to visit the patient in person? Cai Qing's eyes widened, expressing his puzzlement.
"Maybe." This concubine's behavior is too unexpected, maybe she came to "care" about her condition regardless of her identity.
The purpose of her inexplicable coming to the eldest princess, Ruotang guessed that it was absolutely inseparable from herself.
It's just that what she wants to do, Ruotang can't guess for a while, but she has no interest in wanting to know at all.
Knowing that someone was calculating that his feelings were not so happy, Ruotang sighed and lay down on the bed, why didn't this concubine refuse to let her go?
……
After listening to the little maid's reply, the eldest princess said anxiously and complainingly, "Why is it that you are sick at this time?" This child is too, how many times have I told her not to be greedy and not to be cold, but she is still so disobedient. Have you asked a doctor to come and see it? ”
"The girl said that she got up better this morning, but she described it as ugly, and she was afraid that her illness would bump into the nobles, so she didn't dare to come." The little maid said, turned to the direction of the concubine and the ninth princess and saluted, "The girl asked the slave to apologize on her behalf and the nobles. ”
"He's a good boy with a lot of courtesies." Concubine Shu smiled appreciatively and said, "Since she is sick, it is not easy for me to pass." ”
The eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "She is a girl who is not blessed, it is easy for the concubine to come to the house, but she has no chance to see her." ”
Concubine Shu said with a smile: "The eldest princess's words are not right, if she is unlucky, how can she get the eyes of the eldest princess?" According to me, she is a blessed ---- Xiaojiu, but she is bored? ”
The ninth princess, who was in a daze, came back to her senses, and saw that Concubine Shu was waving at her, and hurriedly gathered her mind and ran towards her, "The mother concubine only cares about talking to her aunt, and Linglong is a little boring." ”
"Then you will be tired, help your mother run errands." Concubine Shu handed her the makeup box in her hand, and shook her hand vigorously: "Just a little, don't mess around!" ”
"This ......" the eldest princess hesitated a little, "how can you let Xiao Jiu, the golden branch jade, go to see her?" ”
"It's fine." Concubine Shu let go of the ninth princess's hand and said with a smile: "Let's talk, it's boring for her to stay, the righteous daughter of the imperial sister must be about the same age as her, so let them play by themselves." ”
The eldest princess is not good to refuse, and thinks that the ninth princess is a little girl, and often stays in the palace, although she has also attended the palace banquet, but Ruotang is just a small person, maybe she has forgotten it a long time ago, so she asked people to lead the ninth princess to Ruotang's courtyard.
"I can see it, Sister Huang, your righteous daughter is deeply rooted in your heart, is this because I am afraid that Linglong will bully her?" Concubine Shu said with a smile: "Don't worry, Linglong is not a child, she will definitely not dare to bully your baby daughter, if she really dares, I will not be the first to spare her." ”
The eldest princess was still a little uneasy in her heart, and she had to smile when she heard this: "That child is honest and timid, I'm really afraid that Xiao Jiu will bully her." But you're here, and I think Xiao Jiu will be more restrained. Not to mention them, how is Your Majesty doing lately? ”
"Don't worry, Your Majesty is in good health, but recently I have been a little upset, it has not rained for a long time, and some places are only afraid of disasters again, thinking that the people will suffer, Your Majesty will not be able to sleep peacefully."
"Your Majesty has always loved the people," the eldest princess echoed, and the two of them began to talk.
……
Regarding the matter of going to meet an inexplicable eldest princess woman, the ninth princess was a little resistant.
She held the makeup box, thinking of the lie of the previous concubine, her mood was a little complicated and a little lost, she didn't even realize that the little maid stopped, or the palace maid who followed behind her whispered to remind her, and she woke up.
"Ninth princess, the girl is in the house, and the slave will pass it on to you." The little maid said respectfully.
The ninth princess pushed her aside impatiently, "What kind of person is such a big frame, this princess came to visit her, and she had to pass it on first?" ”
Ruotang, who was lying in the room, felt relieved when he heard this impatient and arrogant voice, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that Concubine Shu would come to visit the patient in person, but he didn't expect Concubine Shu to send the ninth princess over.
Everyone was outside, and there was a posture of unceremoniously wanting to break in, Ruotang had to speak: "Please come in, princess." ”
The ninth princess, who was about to be angry outside, heard the voice, and was very stunned, and then pushed the door open, and swept in like the wind, and really saw Ruotang sitting up from the bed, but she was speechless with her eyes staring, "You, you, you...... Sister Shen, why are you here? ”
She hadn't seen Ruotang for a long time, she knew that she had moved out of the Three Emperors' Mansion, and she also knew that the house she lived in was beautiful, but since she told her that time, she always had some pimples in her heart, and when she wanted to see Ruotang again, she learned that Ruotang no longer lived in her house, and she had asked people to look for it, but there was no news.
But she never dreamed that she would live in her aunt's house again!
Could it be that she is the righteous daughter newly recognized by her aunt?
"Sister Shen, what the hell is going on? Are you really my aunt's daughter? The Ninth Princess couldn't wait to ask.
"These are long words," Ruotang said casually, "but princess, don't you have to go to class today?" Why did you come to the eldest princess's mansion with the concubine? ”
The little princess's expression darkened slightly, she really didn't want to say bad things about her mother, she looked down and saw the makeup box in her hand, and hurriedly stuffed it into Ruotang's hand, "This is the ornament that the mother gave you, do you like it or not?" ”
