In addition to the food estate, Zhao Yu also gave a princess mansion to Du Jinning.

After listening to the eunuch's holy decree, Du Jinning had no choice but to enter the palace to thank him.

After hesitating for a moment, she still wore the same outfit to meet Empress Dowager Zheng and went to the palace to meet Zhao Yu.

"You ......" Zhao Yu was shocked when he saw Du Jinning in women's clothes, and his heart was suddenly mixed.

Sure enough, he was right that night, he had seen her hidden beauty.

Du Jinning is a keen person, and he can naturally feel Zhao Yu's complicated emotions. She understands the situation.

It's not that she's confident in herself, she thinks she's a heartthrob, as long as she sees her women's outfit, no matter who she is, she can like her. She is very aware of the king's psychology that "the best things in the world should be mine".

However, the identity of the eldest princess has been promulgated, and the two are brother and sister, and she is too lazy to think about guarding against Zhao Yu's thoughts, and after thanking her, she asked directly: "Your Majesty, since the courtier sister has returned to Beijing, she should study the matter of rice seeds." Do you think the courtier's sister will go back to Runzhou, or stay in Beijing? ”

Zhao Yu also knew that the wood was already in the boat, and no matter how much thought he put into it, it was useless.

He gathered his thoughts: "The family is weak, and there is no need to be guarded. You can stay in Kyochung. It just so happens that the Zhang family has 500 acres of land not far outside the city, which I now give to you for the purpose of researching high-yield rice seeds. ”

As soon as he waved his hand, Gonggong Wu took out a title deed and handed it over.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Du Jinning took the thanks.

"Since you are a courtier's sister, you can just call me the emperor's brother." Zhao Yu straightened his mentality, and became more and more kind to Du Jinning, "The rice fields will not be cultivated until the spring of next year, and you have suffered so much, take care of your body for a while, and then talk about it in the spring." ”

"Yes. Brother Xie Huang is compassionate. Du Jinning immediately changed his words.

"You are now the eldest princess, do you want to pluck a few eunuchs and palace maids to serve you?" Zhao Yu asked.

This kind of thing could have been done directly by him. But worried that Du Jinning would have ideas, he simply asked.

"Brother Huang is kind, and the courtier's sister understands it. The eunuch palace maid still doesn't want it. Du Jinning said with a smile, "The courtier's sister is a rough person, if they follow the courtier's sister, they will definitely be unaccustomed to it." ”

Zhao Yu was not reluctant.

Coming out of the palace, Du Jinning led Peony and Aoki straight to the princess's mansion.

This princess's mansion was originally the residence of the four princes who were imprisoned and later fell ill and died. The mansion of the second prince, because of the struggle for the heir, the blades met, and many people died inside, and the second prince was also killed there after escaping from the palace; In comparison, the family of the four princes was only imprisoned, dismissed, and did not die much, which is much better.

Such a prince's mansion, which occupies a large area, is beautifully built, and costs a lot, and even if someone dies, it will not be demolished or abandoned, and the emperor can use it as a reward if he cleans up and does a ritual.

And because there were certain regulations when it was built, people who didn't have enough status couldn't live in it at all. If it weren't for Du Jinning being crowned the eldest princess, it would be possible to leave it until Zhao Yu's sons grow up and then reward him. Now, it is rewarded to Du Jinning.

Zhao Mingyue's current princess's mansion is where Zhao Yu lived when he was the eldest prince in the past.

The two princesses' mansions are not far away.

But when Du Jinning came back from the princess's mansion, he called Yao Shuqi over: "You go and call someone Yazi." He sighed.

"What's wrong? Princess. "Yao Shuqi has changed his tune quite smoothly now.

"The princess's mansion is too big, and there are too few people to manage it." Du Jinning sighed again.

It's not that she can't afford to raise so many people, but she doesn't like a lot of people. When there are too many people, there will be noise, and there will be many contradictions, which is difficult to manage. Originally, there were only two masters in the family, she and the Chen family, who were quiet and quiet, but they had to raise dozens of subordinates and bother to manage and manage them, wasn't that asking for trouble?

"Princess, actually, our family is enough to summon them." Yao Shuqi said.

"Huh?" Du Jinning raised his eyebrows and looked at Yao Shuqi suspiciously.

Yao Shuqi said with a smile: "The princess is almost eighteen years old, it's time to recruit a horse, right?" Once the horse enters the house, he will definitely bring some of his usual subordinates with him. If the two parties get together like this, it will be enough for the next person. ”

Since he knew that Du Jinning was a woman, he pondered it.

The relationship between Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan is obviously not ordinary. In the past, whether Qi Muyuan came here or went to Du Mansion in Runzhou, he rested in Du Jinning's courtyard. Du Jinning has always refused to allow people to enter her yard, a lonely man and a widow, if you want to say that Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan are not a couple, you don't believe him if you kill him.

Thinking about Qi Muyuan as the son of a family, or the eldest grandson of the family, he has not married a wife in his twenties, and his relatives have not even been decided, he is more and more sure of his guess.

Du Jinning remembered it when he mentioned it.

Although Qi Muyuan didn't use many people, he was accustomed to a few small servants, coachmen who drove horses, etc., as well as Liu Gao, Ma Biao and other martial arts masters and their families, and there were many people. If he marries her, these people don't know if they will bring it into the princess's mansion or stay in the Qi family.

Also, the Chen family lived in the princess's mansion with her, and Qi Muyuan came in to be a concubine, which was a bit like a son-in-law who was plugged in the door, and I don't know if Qi Muyuan would mind.

Yao Shuqi said again: "The rest is okay, but the princess has a different identity now, and she can't just bring a little girl by her side." The princess will see if she wants to call someone to come over and pick a few maids? ”

He watched Du Jinning take Du Fangling's maid into the palace, and sighed a few times.

Saying that, he was a little worried: "It's these newly bought maids, I'm afraid they don't understand the rules, and they haven't seen the world." Once the princess enters the palace to meet the queen mother or the emperor, they lose their honor in front of the palace, which is a big crime. In addition, the princess will definitely have to attend some banquets in the future, and if they don't understand the rules, they may also collide with the nobles. ”

"Not really. There are a lot of maids and wives around my wife, and when she comes back, I will choose a few from her, and then ask the grandmother in the mansion of the eldest princess of Lu to teach them the rules, so that there will be no problem. Du Jinning waved his hand.

The maids around Chen's side now were all cultivated by Qin Laoliu, and the maids she originally called were still in Runzhou. When the time comes, you can change it.

Du Jinning often walks outside, so he naturally has to use some clever and loyal maids who know martial arts.

……

Two days later, Chen returned to Beijing from Huizhou, and Du Fangfei also rushed back from other places with her children, and the mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried, celebrating Du Jinning's successful change back into women's clothes.

As soon as he eased up, Chen began to urge marriage: "You are also stable now, and the princess has become a princess." Why didn't Qi Muyuan come to the door to propose? You two are not young anymore, how long will it be delayed? ”
