Chapter 75 (2nd Watch)
Jing Guogong because of the rumors that the crown princess liked her son a few days ago, he felt troubled and didn't want to meet Yun Chi, so he didn't go to Zhao Zaifu's birthday banquet, and his wife went, so he naturally didn't see Hua Yan.
Mrs. Lu went on this trip and regretted her death, she thought that if she knew earlier, it would be good if she didn't go, but now she is more troubled than Jing Guogong.
Mrs. Lu came back and recounted what happened in the Zhao Mansion, and when Jing Guogong heard it, he was so shocked that he almost jumped to his feet, "This ...... That Lin'an Huayan, why is she so bold? How dare she say such a thing? Where does this leave us? How will I meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future? ”
Mrs. Lu sighed, "She said that she likes Ling'er, it has nothing to do with Ling'er, it has nothing to do with Jingguo Mansion, it is her own business, so we don't have to have a burden." ”
Jing Guogong retorted, "How is this possible? ”
Mrs. Lu bowed her head, "Yes, how is it possible?" ”
Jing Guogong said angrily, "What about that rebel? ”
Mrs. Lu glanced at him, and couldn't help but say good things for her son, "I have seen this with my own eyes, and it is indeed no wonder that we Ling'er, it is the crown princess, it is really ...... Hey, I've never seen a woman like that. ”
Jing Guogong scolded, "If he didn't go to the East Palace at night to see her, how could he cause this trouble?" The words fell, pointing to Mrs. Lu and said, "You, a loving mother is a failure!" ”
Seeing that he was about to lose his temper again, Mrs. Lu said dissatisfiedly, "You will say that I am kind, over the years, your father and son have made trouble, and I have not stopped you from disciplining him, you can't control him, but you blame me." ”
Jing Guogong choked, stared, and was speechless.
Mrs. Lu thought of something, and suddenly said helplessly, "I am troubled today, but Princess Anyang told me privately that if such a woman likes her son, she will not want to show her face, and she will rob people from the East Palace and take her home to be her daughter-in-law." ”
"What?" Jing Guogong was stunned.
Mrs. Lu said sincerely, "That's what I said, she still envied me, and she regretted it very much, saying that she was old, if she knew that the private affair was the news released by Lin'an Huayan in order not to marry into the East Palace, she said that she would go to Hua's house in person, but now, it is too late to regret it." ”
Jing Guogong slapped the table, "Princess Anyang is really messing around!" How can the person set by the prince be robbed? ”
Mrs. Lu was helpless, "Even if you want to grab it, you have to be able to grab it?" I inquired, when Lin'an Huayan did not enter Beijing, the prince ordered that the East Palace should respect her as the crown princess, and there should be no slightest slackness, and even the Fu housekeeper and Xiao Zhongzi did not dare to be presumptuous in front of her. It can be seen that I am really concerned. ”
When Jing Guogong heard this, he was even more disturbed, and asked, "What about the son?" ”
Mrs. Lu shook her head, "I haven't come back yet, it is said that after Su Zi dealt with the overboard incident, the two of them didn't even eat the banquet, so they left the Zhao Mansion and went out of the city to race horses, so late, it is estimated that they will not come back." ”
Jing Guogong was angry and hateful, "He still has the leisure to race horses, see him come back, I won't break his legs." ”
Mrs. Lu was speechless for a moment, and said unceremoniously, "Since I was a child, you have said this countless times, and you have done it countless times, which time did you do it?" Not only can't you hit his legs, but if he wants to run, you can't help him. ”
Jing Guogong's beard was almost angry, glared, and said angrily, "You...... To whom? ”
Mrs. Lu snorted and said sullenly, "No one is looking, you better think about what to do about this." ”
Jing Guogong said angrily, "Now everyone knows that it will spread all over the capital today, and it will spread all over the world in a few days." When the rebel comes back, I'll ask him. Oh, what did I do in my last life? How did you give birth to such a thing! ”
Mrs. Lu thought that this was also reasonable, so she didn't refute it.
After several lights went out in the middle of the night, the lights in the Phoenix West Garden of the East Palace turned on again.
The seventh princess stayed in the East Palace in vain, and snatched half of Huayan's bed, and slept on a sweet one.
Hua Yan woke up in the middle of the night, but she couldn't sleep at all, she had always slept well, and many times she could barely move, but tonight, she found that she had insomnia.
She had insomnia, and there was a person who slept soundly next to her, which was really not a pleasant thing.
So, after she sat with the quilt for a while, she got up and put on the lamp, and pushed the seventh princess maliciously, "Wake up." ”
The seventh princess slept soundly, muttered, and opened her eyes in a daze, "Fourth sister-in-law, you call me?" ”
Hua Yan looked at her, under the lamp to see that the beauty had not woken up from spring sleep, it was really eye-catching, she looked at it twice more, and nodded, "It's me who is calling you." ”
The seventh princess looked at her standing in front of the bed, rubbed her eyes, sat up, and asked in a daze, "Why did the fourth sister-in-law call me?" ”
Hua Yan said, "It's almost dawn, I can't sleep, you accompany me to the roof to see the moon." ”
The seventh princess was stunned, and glanced out the window, it was pitch black outside, and she scratched her head, "Is there a moon outside?" ”
Hua Yan said with certainty, "Yes." ”
The seventh princess glanced at it and rubbed her eyes again, and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, the time has just passed, and it is the deepest time of the night......
Hua Yan was dissatisfied, "What nonsense? To go or not to go? After speaking, he threatened, "If you don't go, I will send you back to the palace tomorrow and not let you stay with me." ”
The seventh princess woke up, struggled to repel her sleepiness, yawned and nodded hurriedly, "I'll go, go." ”
Hua Yan was satisfied, "Hurry up and get dressed, I'll go out and carry the ladder." With that, he turned around and walked out of the back room.
The seventh princess sighed and puzzled, what was going on in the middle of the night? The fourth sister-in-law sleepwalking? She hurriedly got dressed and chased out the door.
Hua Yan had already brought a ladder from the west wall and placed it on the eaves, and when she saw the seventh princess coming out, she lowered her voice and said, "Don't make noise with others, I'll go up first, and then you can climb up with me." ”
The seventh princess glanced at the sky, stretched out her hand and couldn't see her five fingers, but the clothes on Huayan's body, because they were good materials, showed a slight glow, she asked tentatively and whispered, "Fourth sister-in-law, aren't you sleepwalking?" It was very dark and dark, and there was no moon to see. ”
Hua Yan almost laughed and told the truth, "No, I can't sleep, pull you to accompany me, and if there is no moon, you will come up and talk to me." ”
The seventh princess finally understood that the first night she lived here was the unlucky guy who was disturbed by her good dreams, but she was crying and lying here, and she couldn't, so she could only carefully climb up the ladder to the roof after Hua Yan climbed up.
Although she has always been pampered and arrogant, she has never been on the roof. It took a lot of effort to climb up tremblingly, and seeing that Hua Yan was already sitting on the room with her legs crossed, she carefully sat down next to her, for fear that one would accidentally step on the slippery tile and fall to her death.
Hua Yan looked at her appearance and asked with a smile, "Never climbed the roof?" ”
The Seventh Princess nodded, "No." ”
Hua Yan smiled and said, "In the royal family, are the rules very big?" I don't think you seem to be living too well. And I've seen the fifth prince and the eleventh prince, they don't seem to be too disciplined when they set foot in the gambling house. ”
The seventh princess shook her head, "The rules in the royal family are not the biggest compared to the heirs of the major families in Beijing. The biggest rule is the Zhao family, followed by the Mei family, and then it can be regarded as royal. Because I was raised by my mother since I was a child, after my mother was born, the prince and brother loved me, I was born and stubborn, so I had no rules, and the other sisters were different from me. Among the princes, the eleventh brother loves to play and was born to the fifth brother and his mother, so he often pulls the fifth brother in and out of the gambling house. Most of the time they don't go to gamble, but actually to see the excitement of others. No one else is like them. ”
Hua Yan bowed his head and said with a smile, "What have you done to say that you are naughty?" ”
The seventh princess snapped her fingers and said, "Contradicting the emperor's grandmother and father, and other sisters have tempers and fight for things, often run out of the palace to play, like Lu Zhiling, chase him and want to tell him that I like him." ”
Hua Yan rolled her eyes, "Is this considered stubborn?" ”
The seventh princess was stunned and blurted out, "The emperor's grandmother and father both scolded me for being naughty, doesn't that count?" ”
Hua Yan sneered, "If you want to be considered stubborn, then what am I?" ”
The Seventh Princess asked curiously, "What have you done?" ”
"Me." Hua Yan said with a smile, "I have been in the market since I was a child, either staying in the gambling house, or going to the Qinglou Song Workshop, not the kind of not going home for three days and two ends, but sometimes not returning for a month." Before the age of eight, I could still play in Lin'an, and after the age of eight, I went out of Lin'an to play around, fighting cocks and dogs, and doing everything. ”
The seventh princess couldn't believe it, "You are a woman, how can you do such a thing?" ”
Hua Yan stretched out her hand and nodded her forehead, "Look, you put it in front of me, it's not enough to look so small." ”
The seventh princess nodded, admittedly feeling that it was really not enough to see, she couldn't do it, "People outside are sinister, you are alone, how dare you?" Aren't you afraid of being trafficked? My fifth brother said that if I run out of the palace again and don't let people follow, be careful that I will be trafficked one day. ”
Hua Yan chuckled, "I'm not afraid of being trafficked, sometimes, I can't ask for it." ”
The Seventh Princess was completely stunned.
