Chapter 28: Competitiveness
In the simple wing room of the Caiyun Room, Princess Jiahe was dressed in a big red cloud brocade palace dress embroidered with gold thread peonies, and sat at a wenge wood round table.
The tea sets and tea leaves on the table were carried by the palace maid, and at this time the tea had been changed three times, and Princess Jiahe's patience was about to run out.
Fortunately, at this time, there was a faint movement outside the door.
Soon, someone pushed the door in, only to hear a woman's voice outside: "The slave and maid knock on Her Royal Highness the Princess, Her Royal Highness the Princess." β
There was a slight tremor in his voice, and even if he couldn't see the other party's face through the screen, he could hear the tension in his heart.
She suppressed her previous unhappiness and smiled slightly: "Mama Liu, please get up, don't be too restrained." β
The softness in this voice made Mama Liu relax a little, but she didn't dare to get up, and continued to kneel down and plead guilty: "It is really the sin of the slave to let Her Royal Highness the princess wait for a long time, and I beg Her Royal Highness the princess to punish her." β
Princess Jiahe smiled slightly: "The affairs of the Hou Mansion are complicated, and Mama Liu is also Mrs. Hou's confidant, she must be busy at the moment, and she can be free, this princess is very pleased, how can she punish her?" β
Mama Liu was happy: "Her Royal Highness the princess is magnanimous, the slave and maid are grateful, and when Her Royal Highness marries our son in the future, he will definitely be able to raise his eyebrows, and the husband and wife will be harmonious." β
Princess Jiahe's smile bloomed, and she couldn't help but think about her life after marriage with Yun Ze, and a flush fluttered across her cheeks.
"Then I borrowed Mama's auspicious words. This time, I was looking for my grandmother to come over, and I asked about something. β
Mama Liu knew the purpose of Princess Jiahe, and immediately replied: "Your Highness, please say that the slave maid knows everything and knows everything." β
Princess Jiahe smiled with satisfaction: "Today, the holy decree of the father's marriage has been sent to the Marquis of Anping's mansion, how does the Marquis of Anping react?" What was Mrs. Anpinghou's reaction? So how did Yun Ze react? Tell me about them one by one. β
Mama Liu thought that Princess Jiahe just wanted to know the reaction of the prince, and she had already thought of the words in her heart, but the princess also asked the prince and his wife, so she couldn't help but pause and hesitate.
Princess Jiahe smiled: "How?" Isn't it a bad reaction? β
Mama Liu hurriedly said: "Back to Your Highness, Master Hou...... has very high expectations for the prince, and wants to lead him to an official career...... However, Madame is very happy, after all, she can still have a princess, this is a matter of green smoke from the ancestral tomb! β
Although Madame was a little unhappy at first, she finally figured out that this was not a deception to Her Royal Highness.
Princess Jiahe nodded: "This princess has heard from her mother that Yun Ze Xiao is his father and even more than his father, the Hou Ye suddenly received a holy decree, and the plan made for Yun Ze was completely frustrated, and she couldn't accept it for a while, and this princess can also understand this kind of reaction." β
Princess Jiahe's tone was a little less soft and a little more blunt, and Mama Liu was keenly aware of it, and she was bitter in her heart.
Is this displeased? She hasn't said anything about the son's reaction! If you tell the truthβ
Mama Liu didn't dare to imagine the consequences.
You must not tell the truth!
In a flash of thought, Princess Jiahe had already asked, "What about Yun Ze?" Does he rejoice? β
It doesn't matter how the Marquis of Anping and Mrs. Anping Marquis are, as long as Yun Ze has the same heart as her......
"Shizi - naturally happy, he is preparing in the mansion at this time, and he will enter the palace with the Hou Ye later to thank him." Mama Liu clenched her hands and said half-truthfully.
The corners of Princess Jiahe's mouth raised uncontrollably, and she said proudly: "He can get his father's marriage so easily, thanks to Princess Ben's kind words for him in front of his father." Otherwise, he will have to be examined by his father. β
Mama Liu hurriedly echoed with a smile: "In and outside the palace, who doesn't know that His Royal Highness is loved by the emperor?" The emperor treats His Royal Highness differently from others. β
Princess Jiahe was coaxed by these words, and asked casually: "Then the Jiang family's daughter, have you mentioned Master Hou and Mrs. Hou?" β
Mama Liu's heart jumped, and she suddenly became vigilant.
She smiled all over her face: "No, it's just a little mention, and it's over-"
"Mrs. Hou has come to the door in person, or is it just a brief mention? It's clear that the heart is clear, and Mama doesn't have to hide something. Princess Jiahe's tone turned cold, and there was a threat in her words.
Since the day before yesterday, she sent someone to approach this Mama Liu, and under the coercion and temptation, she learned from her that the Marquis of Anping Mansion was going to marry the Jiang family, and Princess Jiahe was furious and smashed a lot of things in the palace in anger.
Fortunately, this matter was only a private discussion between the Marquis of Anping and his wife, Yun Ze did not participate, and the Hou Mansion and the Jiang Mansion had not yet decided on a family matter, Princess Jiahe breathed a sigh of relief and was anxious at the same time, with some revenge, she directly found Emperor Qianwen, and after some hard begging, she finally got this marriage decree.
But the Marquis of Anping would rather marry the Jiang family than choose her, which really made her angry.
The matter between the Jiang family and the Hou Mansion is no longer possible, and the eldest lady of the Jiang family is just an insignificant person. Mama Liu didn't hesitate much, and told the truth directly:
"Master Hou asked a few words, but Madame doesn't think very much of Miss Jiang."
Hou Ye and Mrs. are the parents of the prince, no matter how much the princess dislikes them, for the sake of the prince, it will not be good, so even if she tells the truth, Mama Liu is not worried that Her Royal Highness the princess will hold a grudge against them.
As for Miss Jiang, what does it have to do with her?
With this thought, Mama Liu has no psychological burden.
"Your Highness doesn't know, that Miss Jiang's father is just a five-grade rite Langzhong, and the lintel of the family background is really low, and Mrs. has never been very satisfied."
Princess Jiahe sneered: "That's the idea of the Hou Ye?" I also said that this Jiang girl is a famous lady of which family, but the daughter of a five-grade petty official, and she still misses this kind of family, it seems that this Miss Jiang is very good! β
When she first heard the name of the Jiang family's daughter, she and the palace maids around her did not react, but at that time, she was anxious to obtain the decree of marriage, and she had time to investigate it clearly in the future.
Mama Liu sneered: "Where does Master Hou fancy that Miss Jiang, and the slave maid doesn't knowββ"
In fact, Hou Ye just wants to set up a family affair for the prince as soon as possible, among the famous families in the capital, the Jiang family can barely be regarded as one of them, and it is the only family who does not know the affairs of Princess Jiahe and his own son, and Hou Ye has no choice......
But these things can't be said to Princess Jiahe, so Mama Liu has to be vague.
Princess Jiahe had a misunderstanding because of these words, which made her have a strong competitive spirit towards Mingyue.
After asking all the questions, Princess Jiahe sent Mama Liu and instructed the palace maid beside her: "Yinghua, go and check this princess to check this eldest lady of the Jiang family." No! My grandfather wants to meet her in person! β
