"Master Rusheng?" Xia Ye's eyes widened, "He, he became the prince?" ”

Du Mingxin remembered his courtship on a snowy night last night, and the smile kept wrapping around the corners of his mouth. "Well, yes! He is no longer a little monk now. ”

Chuncao also packed up and came in to serve at this time, and when she saw Du Mingxin's smile on her face, she couldn't help but look at Xia Ye in surprise. Obviously, the girl still looks angry and resentful before she goes to bed, why does she wake up and the spring flowers bloom?

"What's wrong? Got something to say? Du Mingxin sat in front of the mirror and asked Chuncao with a smile while pulling his hair in a bun by Xia Ye.

Chuncao said with a smile: "Yesterday, the safety of the outer courtyard handed me a message, but seeing that you were not in a good mood when you came back, I didn't dare to say it...... Have you slept well and lost your breath? ”

Du Mingxin smiled: "The kid who gave you melon seeds is called Ping'an?" That's a pretty ordinary name! ”

"It's good to be a horizontal person...... "Chuncao said awkwardly.

"Yo, this girl has also learned to protect food!" Du Mingxin turned his head and smiled at Xia Ye.

"Don't talk too much, why don't you tell the girl about your news!" Natsuha urged.

Ping'an said that he inquired clearly, and the letters sent by the eldest girl were later sent to a house in Jingshui Hutong. The house is Cheng Anhou's private residence, no one lives in it on weekdays, only two old servants guard the door, and there is also an entourage of Cheng Anhou who often goes over to see. ”

Lin Lang, Du Mingyan......

Du Mingxin played with the sideburns of a jade butterfly in his hand, and suddenly remembered the words that he said yesterday in Nanyuan Lin Lang.

The reason why he was sure that the token was still in Du Mansion a few years ago must be because someone told him that the token was in his hands, and this person was Du Mingyan nine times out of ten. But why would she do it? Tell Lin Lang that the token is in her hands, what benefits can it bring her?

And when Shen Yao told Lin Lang that the token could not be found, although Lin Lang was suspicious, he still asked for it directly to himself, and did not go to Du Mingyan, why is this? Since two people have a private correspondence, isn't it easy to write a letter and ask questions?

Seeing that she was thinking seriously, Chuncao and Xia Ye both held their breath and didn't dare to speak. Someone outside ran to the door with a smile and reported: "Second girl, someone from Uncle Shen's mansion will pick you up and take you to the Guogong Mansion for dinner." ”

Xia Ye went out, grabbed the money and rewarded the messenger, and asked with a smile, "Thank you mother for your labor." What else did the visitor say? ”

The mother-in-law carefully stuffed the reward money into the sweat towel around her waist, and said with a flattering smile: "The second girl still understands etiquette, and the sisters around her are all trained so well!" The people from the Guogong Mansion said that the envoys of Wu Yue Kingdom in the south came and brought a lot of tribute to the emperor. The emperor couldn't finish eating it himself, so he rewarded the people who were close to him. Our grandfather got two anchovies, please ask the second girl to come over and try it! ”

"If you want me to say, that is, our grandfather! Where can that ordinary noble family eat this! Not to mention the fresh anchovy of this season, there is nowhere to buy it with silver! Just the palace concubines rewarded by the emperor, this dignity is not something ordinary people can have! ”

Xia Ye's face was sour, and she saw that the mother-in-law was not leaving, so she had to ask the little maid to grab a few dollars and send it to the mother-in-law with a smile: "This money is for my mother to drink and eat, I will ask the little girl to send you out, and I have to wait for the girl to go out quickly." ”

The woman weighed the weight of the copper coin in her hand, and then left satisfied.

After a while, Du Mingxin cleaned up and said goodbye to Mrs. Du and Mrs. Du, and then got into the carriage with a gloomy face.

Xia Ye persuaded on the side: "The former slave maid heard that Miss Zhu's son-in-law has an emergency, and the eldest lady is in a hurry for the past two days. ”

Chuncao said with some indignation: "Why? Our girl didn't do anything, and she is a niece, if she is not happy in her heart, she will find her daughter to be angry, can she be guilty of such a meal at our girl? What do you want to say to her mother's family, the girl hasn't married yet, she is worried about it! ”

Xia Ye hurriedly said: "Grandma, just say a few words!" After a while, the girl was angry and went to see her uncle, and she was seen by her uncle, so what's good? ”

"I should call my uncle to see it! Look at how they bully our girls here! It's just two fish, and they all see it in their eyes, one by one sneering. I don't understand, should Uncle Shen's reward be sent? My wife has been tortured by them, and she is embarrassed to ......"

At this point, Chuncao also realized that she had gone too far. She slapped herself twice on the mouth and said with a wry smile: "Girl, the slave's mouth is a little open, you can punish me." ”

"It really deserves to be punished." Du Ming said sullenly, "Punish you with a month's monthly money, and remember it for a long time." ”

*

When he arrived at the Xingguo Mansion, Shen Yao personally welcomed Du Mingxin in the second gate. As he walked, he asked with a smile, "How is this house for uncle?" Would you like to move here for a few days? ”

Du Mingxin pursed his lips and smiled: "Uncle, everything in this house is good, but there is one less hostess who presides over the feed." ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Yao made a straight face: "I haven't asked you anything yet, you should talk about me first!" ”

Du Ming glanced at Shen Yao with a weak heart, thinking that Chen Xi wouldn't move so fast......

When he arrived at the main house, when the maid served tea, Shen Yao waved his hand and asked the people in the room to retreat.

"Let me ask you, did you know Chen Xi before?"

Du Mingxin nodded and said, "I used to live in Songshan Zhuangzi, and I often went to Shaolin Temple to burn incense for my mother. He. ”

"Him?" Shen Yao almost rolled his eyes and was about to roll his sockets, "Do you know that the emperor has already arranged for his marriage?" ”

Du Mingxin shook his head and asked anxiously, "Who is the emperor's favorite?" ”

Shen Yao walked around the room with his hands behind his back, and said anxiously: "I originally thought he was good, it would be better if he didn't become this King of Jin!" But the meaning revealed by the emperor a few days ago was that he wanted him to marry the youngest daughter of the Duke of Dingguo! ”

Xu Yuan?

Du Mingxin's brows furrowed, and he asked, "Didn't you say that Concubine De asked King Yu to marry Miss Xu, and Queen Mother also wanted to marry her for her nephew?" Where is this turn on Chen Xi? No matter how you say that he is only the emperor's righteous son, how can he compare to his own son and the prince's foreign family? ”

Shen Yao stopped and looked at Du Mingxin steadily. After a while, he smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to still think about things!" Then tell me, why do you think the emperor asked Chen Xi to marry the daughter of the Duke of Dingguo, and how can you change your mind with the skills of the two of you? ”
