Chapter 20: Sleeping in the Same Bed
Xiao Zhongzi walked out of the Wuwei Hou Mansion and stepped out of the mansion gate, when the wind blew, he found that his back was already soaked. He stomped his feet, and secretly scolded that it was not a good errand to come on this trip, and the butler Fu didn't want to come to suffer this crime, so he arrested him for this trip, which was really like walking away from the ghost gate.
All the way back to the East Palace, hearing that Yun Chi was still in the Phoenix West Garden, he went to reply with a numb scalp.
Qiu Yue had already been helped back to her room by Mama Fang, the wine cups and dishes in the house had already been cleaned up, and Hua Yan was lying on the bed, still asleep. Yun Chi sat at the head of the bed, playing with the green silk she had been struggling with in his arms earlier.
Xiao Zhongzi stepped into the courtyard with one foot in a shallow foot, stood at the door, and looked back at the house to see Su Zi's passage.
After Yun Chi heard the last sentence, his warm eyes swelled with coldness, and his complexion was also infected with ice and snow, he turned around and stared at Hua Yan deadly.
She was asleep, her body was full of the fragrance of wine, her cheeks were dyed like a glow, the green silk was scattered on the pillow, her body was delicate and graceful without a thin quilt, her eyebrows were like spring willows, her lips were like vermilion, and her posture was charming.
He stared for a moment, took a deep breath, turned his face, and whispered to the outside, "Got it!" Let's go down! ”
Xiao Zhongzi was pardoned and hurriedly withdrew from the hospital.
Yun Chi sat for a while, then suddenly leaned towards the side of the bed, half-lying beside Hua Yan, and closed his eyes.
Su Zicho, he is really ...... Dare!
Ninghe Palace, the Queen Mother listened to the little eunuch who came back from going out to inquire about the news, talking about the strange things in the Shunfang gambling house yesterday, and her face was very ugly. After the little eunuch finished speaking, her face was already pale.
Lin'an Huayan, she only heard yesterday that she came to the capital the day before yesterday, from Lin'an to the capital, only ten days away, she walked for a month and a half, that's it, but she just entered Beijing, not in the East Palace to wait for her to pass the word into the palace to see, actually ran to the Shunfang gambling house, is that where women should go?
Not only did she go, but she even dismantled the table of the Shunfang gambling house and won the nine gambling gods, making it known to the world. What is she trying to do?
A woman, showing off her gambling skills, is she very dignified? It's really unseemly!
She couldn't suppress the anger in her heart and asked, "What about the prince?" What can be said? ”
The little eunuch hurriedly replied, "Back to the Queen Mother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally went to the Shunfang Gambling House to pick up the Crown Princess last night, and he didn't say anything." ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she was even more annoyed, "He actually let her do this?" Not at all punished? ”
The little eunuch shook his head, "The servant didn't hear the news from the East Palace that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince punished the crown princess. The words fell, and he said cautiously, "I heard about something, last night, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince instructed the Fu Steward to personally go and pass the word to the adults of the Imperial Observatory, saying that this matter should not be discussed in vain. Yes, in the early days of today, no one in the Imperial History Observatory handed over the fold and said a few words. After the early dynasty, the emperor sent someone to invite His Royal Highness to the emperor's main hall and reprimanded him, but he was angry with His Royal Highness and declared the imperial doctor. ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, she was angry for a while, and slapped her hand on the chair, "He is deliberately covering up." ”
The little eunuch was silent.
The grandmother on the side saw that the Queen Mother was very angry, and hurriedly reached out to stroke her back, "The Queen Mother is angry, take care of your body." ”
The Queen Mother hated that iron could not become steel, and said angrily, "He just recognized that Huayan, why can't the mourning family see where that woman is good?" The mourning family really regretted that they should have ignored the incompleteness and beauty of the roster, and they should have torn off her page fiercely, and the prince would not have chosen her. ”
The grandmother hurriedly relieved, "Maybe the crown princess must have strengths, you have been married for a year, but you only looked at that portrait, and I have never seen the real person, and it is common sense that I can't see the princess's goodness." This marriage has dragged on for so long, and Her Royal Highness still has no intention of letting go, obviously she has to be. Yesterday's incident is indeed a bit out of line, but if you take the trouble to call the crown princess into the palace and teach it for a while, the crown princess will be the governor. ”
The Queen Mother's anger subsided a little when she heard this, and she let out a long sigh, "Hey, Yunchi, this kid, what is good for me to tell me?" What kind of woman do you want to have? This is not good, just change it. The left and right have not yet been married, nor have they been courteous, nor have they worshiped heaven and earth into the jade. He just said that the heavenly family chooses people, and whoever he chooses is whoever he chooses, and he will not change his life or death. ”
The grandmother smiled, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been an assertive person since he was a child, and this is also a good teaching from the Queen Mother." ”
The Queen Mother loves to listen to this, Yun Chi has been raised by her side since she was a child, she watched her grow up, from a young age, amazing and gorgeous, to now the prison country and politics, hundreds of officials surrendered, step by step, never went wrong. She laughed, pointed at the mamma, and said, "Your mouth will coax me." ”
The grandmother laughed too, "The old slave is telling the truth. ”
The Queen Mother laughed for a long time and ordered, "Xiao Lizi, when you go to the East Palace, you will say that the mourning family invites Lin'an Huayan to enter the palace." ”
Xiao Li Zi should be, and hurriedly walked out of Ninghe Palace.
When he came to the East Palace, Xiao Lizi explained his intention, and Steward Fu didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly took him to Phoenix West Garden.
On the way, Xiao Lizi asked in a puzzled whisper, "Your Highness returned to Fuzhong so early today?" ”
Steward Fu nodded, and also replied in a low voice, "Yes, His Royal Highness returned to the house before noon, and now he is in the Phoenix West Garden, where the crown princess lives." ”
Xiao Lizi glanced at the sky, "Isn't there anything important in the court today?" ”
Steward Fu shook his head, "I don't know, anyway, His Highness came back early today." ”
Xiao Lizi nodded and didn't ask any more.
The two came to the Phoenix West Garden, the courtyard was quiet, and the Fu housekeeper slowed down his steps and asked Mama Fang who was guarding outside, "What about Your Highness?" ”
Mama Fang whispered, "In the house, I haven't come out." ”
Steward Fu was secretly shocked, and His Royal Highness came back from outside and entered the main house of this West Garden, and it has been an hour and a half now. He looked at the closed door, there was no movement in it, and he didn't dare to come forward to disturb him for a while.
Xiao Lizi felt that something was wrong, and asked in a low voice, "Steward Fu, what's wrong?" ”
Steward Fu hesitated for a moment and lowered his voice, "The Queen Mother said when she will let the crown princess enter the palace?" ”
Xiao Lizi thought for a while and said, "The Queen Mother didn't say anything, she only let the servants come to invite the princess into the palace." ”
Steward Fu breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Your Highness and the crown princess seem to be inconvenient to disturb now, so my father-in-law might as well go to the flower hall with me to rest for a while, drink a cup of tea, and wait a while." ”
Xiao Lizi glanced at the closed door, heard the words, and nodded.
Phoenix West Garden has its own flower hall, Mama Fang took the maidservant to serve refreshments, and the Fu housekeeper tentatively asked the queen mother a few words about the princess yesterday's matter, and Xiao Lizi did not hide it, and said it directly.
Butler Fu knew that the Queen Mother had been unhappy with this marriage, and persuaded His Royal Highness I don't know how many times, but His Royal Highness decided not to change it, and the Queen Mother couldn't take it, and now I heard that the princess was in the Shunfang gambling house yesterday, and naturally I was dissatisfied with how dissatisfied I was, and I guess I couldn't wait to cancel this marriage and change the princess to His Royal Highness.
However, the Queen Mother didn't know, in fact, the crown princess didn't want this marriage, she didn't want to marry His Royal Highness.
In the past two days, he really understood that this marriage was really only one person, His Highness.
Butler Fu sighed secretly, and accompanied Xiao Lizi to drink tea one after another, until the two of them couldn't drink anymore, and he didn't hear any movement from the main house, he looked at Xiao Lizi helplessly, and said discussingly, "Your Highness didn't sleep all night yesterday, I must have been too sleepy, and I fell asleep for a long time." Seeing that the sun is sinking in the west, even if the Queen Mother's message is passed on today, it is so late, the crown princess will not be able to enter the palace to greet the Queen Mother. Otherwise, my father-in-law will go back first? When His Royal Highness and the crown princess wake up, the old slave will say a word on their behalf? ”
Xiao Lizi glanced at the sunset in the west, the sky in the west was already fiery red, he thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess had not yet married, and now they had slept in the same bed during the day? If that's the case, it's really hard to wake up.
He hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I'm afraid the Queen Mother is in a hurry, I'll go back to the palace first, and at most come back tomorrow." ”
Butler Fu nodded again and again and sent Xiao Lizi out of the house.
Back to Ninghe Palace, Xiao Li Zi told the East Palace, he ran a trip, stayed in the East Palace for a long time, did not see anyone, did not pass on the word, returned in vain, after the Queen Mother listened to his advice, the anger was half loud, and spit out a sentence, "I actually slept together during the day...... Is...... Unorthodox! ”
