Chapter 28: Momentum Hold Steady

"The lower officials have seen His Royal Highness King Yi, but I don't know that His Royal Highness King Yi has arrived, and I hope His Royal Highness will forgive his sins."

Prime Minister Xiao immediately gave Chu Xiuyi another big gift, and fine beads of sweat were already oozing from his forehead unconsciously, what is going on today, why is His Royal Highness King Yi here, he doesn't seem to have handed Chu Xiuyi an invitation!

"Prime Minister Xiao doesn't have to be polite, this king just heard about Prime Minister today's birthday, so he specially prepared a thin gift, came to congratulate Prime Minister Xiao Cheng on his birthday, and hoped that Prime Minister Xiao Cheng would smile!"

Chu Xiuyi still had that spring breeze-like smile on his face, always giving people a very approachable feeling.

"His Royal Highness King Yi, please come inside!"

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng was really frightened by Chu Xiuyi, he had to invite three or four greetings to come to the person who should come, but he shouldn't come, but he came uninvited, which can be called what he should do.

"Prime Minister, please."

Chu Xiuyi is rare that he didn't put on any princely shelf, which made Xiao Ruoxi can't help but have a little more affection for His Royal Highness King Yi.

After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister Xiao naturally led the group of men to the front hall to entertain them.

As for Xiao Ruoxi, ahem, men usually discuss matters in the front hall, so she will find a place to go by herself!

Thinking so, Xiao Ruoxi walked alone in the direction of the backyard.

"I've seen Second Miss!"

……

Along the way, there were servants from the Prime Minister's Mansion who saluted Xiao Ruoxi, and everyone who saluted, Xiao Ruoxi returned a smile.

However, every time Xiao Ruoxi smiled, he would find that every servant of the family had a frightened look on his face.

Xiao Ruoxi couldn't help but reach out and touch her face, she smiled, is it so terrifying?

Fortunately, the deeper she walked into the courtyard, the quieter the surroundings became, and there were a lot fewer people, which saved Xiao Ruoxi from laughing one by one, she was afraid that if she continued to laugh, her face would cramp.

The backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion is not as spacious as the backyard of the Han Palace, but the decoration is also exquisite.

Along the way, all kinds of flowers and plants, very pleasing to the eye, the breeze blows, the fragrance of the pond lotus flower from the tip of the nose into the heart, refreshing the spleen.

After walking alone for most of the day, Xiao Ruoxi suddenly regretted that he didn't come out with Lianxiang, and now there was not even a person around to speak.

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, if you watch it repeatedly in a short time, it will also be aesthetically tired.

Boredom, Xiao Ruoxi just wanted to find a place to stay and take a good rest.

Fortunately, there is a feature of this ancient building, especially in these courtyards, there are usually some pavilions for resting.

Although these pavilions are often the most frequent points of accidents, such as the last snow smoke incident is a good example.

But now she is in her own home, not the palace.

Since he had just smelled the fragrance of lotus, there would definitely be a pavilion nearby, Xiao Ruoxi was very sure in his heart.

Don't ask her why she's so sure, isn't it all played like this in novels and TV series? Wherever there is a pond, there must be a gazebo.

Xiao Ruoxi walked forward with firm steps, but after a moment's effort, a pavilion in front of him came into Xiao Ruoxi's eyes.

Sure enough, Xiao Ruoxi's eyes overflowed with joy, and he quickly walked towards the gazebo.

When he got closer, Xiao Ruoxi realized that he was too late, and this place was already occupied by others.

Xiao Ruoxi pursed her lips, turned around and prepared to leave, forget it, let's go back to the room and stay!

"The second lady just married and went to the Han Mansion to be the princess for a few months, why, when she returned to the mansion today, she didn't even understand the rules of the mansion?"

As soon as Xiao Ruoxi turned around, he heard a snarky voice coming from behind him.

Seeing that there was no one else around, he thought for a moment and felt that the person who didn't understand the rules in that person's mouth might be himself.

Xiao Ruoxi turned around slowly, looked at the sound in the pavilion, and saw a graceful and luxurious lady sitting in the pavilion at the moment, holding a blue and white teacup in one hand, and slowly taking a sip, her posture was not elegant.

On the left and right, a green-clothed maid who was also wearing the same clothes, one of them holding a fan in her hand, shaking it gently, was fanning the lady.

On the side, a yellow-clothed maid was waiting on the side, ready to be on standby.

Tsk, I'm really going to enjoy it!

This is Xiao Ruoxi's first sigh, but it can also be seen that this woman's status in the Prime Minister's Mansion is definitely not low, otherwise, how could she bring so many maids to serve when she goes out.

Thinking that she was in the Hanwang Mansion, there was a maid by her side, and she was still the dowry maid she brought from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Thinking about it, Chu Xiuhan is really stingy at home. I didn't even want to give her a few maids.

"Madame, are you talking to me?"

Xiao Ruoxi walked into the pavilion, looked at the woman in front of him and asked.

Who knows, as soon as Xiao Ruoxi's words came out, the woman's face changed obviously, she put down the teacup in her hand, looked at Xiao Ruoxi with a look of disgust, and said:

"Yo, Princess Han is here to set up your princess in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there is no one in her eyes."

There was indescribable bitterness in the tone.

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoxi couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart.

Why did this woman speak in the wrong way, she was obviously very polite to ask her if she was okay and what it meant to put on a show.

"This lady, I have no grudge against you in the past, and I have no enmity in the near future, why do I have to speak so ugly when I open my mouth?"

Xiao Ruoxi held back the unhappiness in her heart, and still asked politely.

After all, this is her father's house, and today is her father's birthday, so she can't cause some unnecessary trouble for her father.

"Presumptuous."

Xiao Ruoxi's voice had just fallen, but the woman in front of her suddenly became furious, slapped the table in front of her with one hand, and spilled the tea in the cup.

Xiao Ruoxi especially wanted to ask at that time: Madam, does your hand hurt? But she finally held back.

I saw the woman look at her sharply, and said:

"Second Miss, this is the princess who has been in the Han Palace's Mansion for a few days, and has she forgotten the rules of the Prime Minister's Mansion? When I saw Mrs. Ben, I didn't know how to salute. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ruoxi was stunned, she didn't expect that the reason why this woman was angry was that she didn't salute her, what kind of strange reason is this?

If you really want to talk about etiquette, as the princess of Han, I am afraid that she will only salute when she meets someone who has more power than Chu Xiuhan!

And Chu Xiuhan went up, except for the crown prince, that is, the emperor, this woman, no matter how she looked, didn't look like the emperor's concubine, it stands to reason that she should salute herself, why did she still ask her?

Xiao Ruoxi looked the woman up and down, and said slowly:

"This lady, since you know that I am the princess of Han, then the reasoning should be that you should salute me, why do you still ask this princess to salute you?"

Speaking of the back, Xiao Ruoxi's tone became sharply sharp, she was not ruthless, she took out a little posture, did she really think she was a soft persimmon and let others pinch her?
