When Du Mingxin heard that he was back, he felt very happy in his heart, and happily stood up to welcome him into the house.

"I don't know how to be in charge," Du Mingxin smiled, "I'm admitting my mistake!" ”

"Isn't this the second day of marriage, don't worry." Chen Xi smiled, "If you don't want to do this, then I'll find you two capable housekeepers to help you." ”

Mama Cui smiled helplessly: "Lord Wang, you can't be so used to her!" ”

Chen Xi laughed and said, "If you are not used to her, who are you used to?" ”

His words were so intimate that Du Mingxin was embarrassed. She instructed Chuncao: "It's hot today, you ask the kitchen people to make some ice bowls, and the prince and I will use some, and you can take the rest and divide it, so as to relieve the heat." ”

Chuncao agreed to go out, and Chen Xi went to the inner room to get a purse out, which was the one sent by the prince in the palace in the morning.

"Look what this old slippery head has sent." He untied his purse and poured everything onto the coffee table with a "bang".

"This ......" Du Mingxin was a little surprised, "Isn't it a little too generous?" ”

It was not a jewelry device, nor a silver ticket, gold or silver, but a number of gems of various colors weighing five or six coins, and six pearls the size of a dragon's eye mixed in it.

"Didn't he ask you for something?"

Chen Xi thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "Every time we meet, except for asking for jokes, he has never said anything about himself. But he often told me about my father's mood that day, and he was very concerned about me. ”

"It's hard to find something like this." Du Mingxin held a ruby in his hand and played with it, "If you don't touch it, you won't have anywhere to buy it with silver." He is a eunuch in the deep palace, and he has served by his father's side for less than a year, why can he have such a skill? ”

Chen Xi picked up an emerald, compared it in Du Mingxin's hair, and replaced it with a sapphire on her neck, and said casually: "I'm afraid these are relics from the palace of the previous dynasty, either he has accumulated years of income, or he fished in troubled waters when the palace was in turmoil." ”

"He's an old man in the former palace?" Du Mingxin was taken aback, "Then how dare the emperor be so relieved to stay for personal care?" ”

Chen Xi smiled: "After being by my father's side for a long time, you will know." He can not only look at people, but also use people, and has always been suspicious of people, and he is not suspicious. Since his father trusted him, he must be reliable. ”

"Besides, he may not be very loyal to Emperor Changqing of the Zhou Dynasty, Lin Lang once said that the prince was the attendant of Concubine Wu beside Emperor Changqing. Since the death of Concubine Wu, he has been working as an errand in the palace. Later, Lin Lang joined forces with him to make an internal response, and when his father entered the palace, he was also considered to have made a meritorious contribution. ”

"Concubine Wu?" Du Ming thought for a while and asked, "But the concubine Wu who Emperor Changqing built for her Taiping Garden?" ”

"Exactly."

"Are there many old people from the previous dynasty like Wang Gonggong in the palace?"

Chen Xi touched her head and said with a smile: "When we entered the palace that day, the palace people died and fled, and there were not many left, and most of the people left were people like Wang Gonggong. At first, the father and emperor also carefully screened a batch, and those who served Emperor Changqing and his concubines and children were not left. It's just that there is a shortage of manpower in the palace, but fortunately, there are few masters in the palace now, and two days ago, my father said that he would add some more people to come in. ”

Du Mingxin nodded, and said: "It sounds a little uneasy, but since the emperor has retained it, it must be reliable." ”

After dinner, the husband and wife went to the warehouse to pick up some gifts for returning to the door, and then rested early.

The next morning, another row of maids was waiting at the door of the main house, and no one dared to go over and call out.

Xia Ye watched people bring hot water in, turned around and saw that the door was still not open, so he said to Dong Zhi: "Why don't you go and tell the prince and princess to get up, it's already Chenzheng!" ”

Dongzhi was embarrassed: "Sister, why don't you go...... I see that these subordinates in the palace are afraid of the prince, what if I touch the prince's mold in the past...... Anyway, sister, you are the right-hand man by the princess's side, no matter how much the prince will attack you......"

Xia Ye glared at her, and said as she stepped forward, "The princess brought you from home, and she still expects you to be an arm!" Don't even dare to scream, be careful that you will be more capable in the future, and squeeze you down! ”

Dongzhi smiled and said, "No matter how capable anyone is, where can he compare to my sister?" ”

Xia Ye ignored her, knocked on the door lightly, and said, "Lord and Princess, it's time to get to Chenzheng." ”

Inside, Du Mingxin was hurriedly dressing on his clothes, and kept complaining about Chen Xi: "I lay down before I was in the middle of the sea yesterday, who knew that you tossed until that time before letting me go to sleep!" I'm going to split the bed tonight, and you go to sleep on the kang by the window! ”

Chen Xi rested his head on his arm, looked at her with a smile in his eyes, and said, "If we get married on the third day, we will split the bed, and in two days, it will be spread all over the capital." Will you be able to afford to lose this person? ”

Du Mingxin kicked him, got out of bed and put on his shoes, turned around and said angrily: "Get dressed quickly, it's too late to go back, and someone should break their mouths again." ”

Chen Xi half-sat up, pulled her arm, quickly kissed her on the cheek, and then said softly: "You look so good when you're angry......

Du Ming's heart was sweet and funny, he got up and handed him his clothes, and said with a smile: "Don't think that two sweet words can fool you through, I said that the bed is divided, it is to divide the bed!" ”

Chen Xi got out of bed, scratched her nose, walked over to open the door, and said with a smile: "Then let's see who can win tonight!" ”

The two of them stopped washing and eating, and the new son-in-law was dressed in fresh clothes and angry, and took his delicate wife all the way back to Du Mansion in Yushu Hutong.

Du Mingxin got off the carriage and found that there were several carriages parked in front of the house, so he asked, "Who else is coming home today?" ”

The porter led Chen Xi's horse diligently, and said with a smile on his face: "Back to the second aunt and grandmother, the eldest aunt and grandmother also came home today, and the fifth aunt and the fifth aunt also arrived." ”

Chen Xi saw that he was smiling happily, so he asked the little servant to reward him with a tael of silver, and the porter was so happy that he kowtowed again and again to thank him. He and the other two porters had been calculating Chen Xi's reward two days earlier, but they didn't expect Du Mingyan to become much more generous after getting married than when he didn't leave the cabinet. Even the fifth aunt, who was rumored to be sick and dying, also showed up today, and his shot was also a piece of silver.

Chen Xi walked in and asked, "I don't know Ah Yao, cough, is my uncle coming today?" ”

Du Mingxin said with a smile: "Uncle said that he would not come, so he told us to go directly to the Guogong Mansion in two days." ”
