Chapter Seventy-Six: The Turning Point

Autumn colors are worried every year, and this year seems to be more sad than last year. The red cherries and green plantains will all wither under the frost and wind of autumn.

Zhu Ran sat on the edge of the couch, and suddenly there was a high voice from outside the door: "The prince appreciates two pearl powders from the South China Sea, five horses of Xiwu Sujin, a carved hairpin next to the hollow, and two handkerchiefs specially embroidered by Xiangdi embroidered women......"

Watching the maids come in order with trays, Zhu Ran is used to it, since Zhu Heyu was last drunk for more than a month, bead jewelry, silk and satin, all kinds of jewelry, ornaments, specialties from all over the world, treasures, have not been sent to her in the same way, but I have never seen others.

In the eyes of outsiders, Zhu Heyu can be said to be infinitely favored to her, even the lady in the palace, there is no such reward, the room where the items are placed must be full, everyone in the house is envious, and the sycophant welcomes her, as long as it is what she orders, it can be said that it is impeccable, and even the maids around her seem to be superior. She felt that the current situation was like a bright red lantern hanging high outside the house at night, brightly lit, but there were no candles in the room, it was dark, and the people outside looked dazzling, but only the people in the house knew the darkness of the room. It was his people who Zhu Ran wanted to see, not his things. I just saw what I could say, for a week, the palace has been busy up and down, sprinkled and swept out, and every corner was full of lights. It is self-evident what it is for.

Shui Xin and Ruoyi came in to sort out the items and register them one by one.

"Madam, what do you want to leave behind, or do you want to go straight to the warehouse?" Shui Xin asked.

"Put it all away!"

Seeing that Zhu Ran was not interested, Ruoyi couldn't help but say: "Madam, you see how exquisite this brocade of Xiwu is, I heard that Xiwu paid a total of twenty tributes, and the emperor specially rewarded the palace with five horses, no, they were all brought to Madame!" ”

Zhu Ran took a look, it was indeed delicate and delicate, the whole embroidery surface was smooth, the corners were very neat, and the color ratio was also very harmonious. "Pick up the color you like, and make a few clothes for you and Shui Xin, it just so happens that Shui Xin is also getting married. And pick out a few boxes of things in the side room as a dowry for the two of you. ”

Just as I was about to take a nap, the sound of nails and the shouts of work came from the east side of the yard.

Shui Xin was spreading the quilt, and when he heard the noise outside, he said impatiently: "What is this doing outside!" I also let people not rest. With that, he walked out of the airbag.

Zhu Ran was completely sleepy, looking at the chess pieces that had been boring and idle at the beginning were still scattered on the table, picking up the chess pieces one by one. Instructed Ruoyi: "Go and call Shui Xin back." ”

"Madam," no one in the palace knew what this voice was doing, but in front of Zhu Ran, how could Ruoyi bear to pierce this layer of window paper, "Let Shui Xin talk about them, this noon is not allowed to let people sleep." ”

After a while, Shui Xin returned, and the voice was really gone. Zhu Ran lowered his head and asked Shui Xin, "What are you doing outside?" ”

Shui Xin said hesitantly: "Hey! A group of people repaired and repaired the house. ”

Zhu Ran raised his head and looked at her, "If you don't let them work, they really won't do it, aren't you afraid that the prince will blame you for delaying the construction period." ”

"If you disturb the lady's rest, the prince will blame it!" Ruoyi smiled on the side.

"I haven't been out for a few days, it's better to pack up and go outside the mansion today" Zhu Ran said and stood up, Zhu Heyu had already allowed her to enter and leave the palace freely.

Shui Xin thought of the big red happy words glued all over the palace, especially the extra-large "Xi" characters on the gate of the palace, and hurriedly blocked in front of Zhuran, "What's good outside the mansion, it's quiet this time, isn't Mrs. going to take a nap!" ”

Zhu Ran bypassed Shui Xin, only to feel that his heart sank, and said softly: "Don't hide it from me, what is going on in the palace these days, and I don't have long ears, how can I not know." ”

"Madam......" Shui Xin saw Zhu Ran's forced smile, and immediately cried.

Zhu Ran stabilized his mind and slowly breathed a sigh of relief, "What are you crying about, I'm fine, it's only a matter of time before he marries a wife." ”

"Madame... Madame, don't worry, the prince has you in his heart......" Ruoyi said comfortingly.

"Maybe." Although Zhu Ran's tone was light, he was still looking forward to something in his heart. It's just that after three days, this expectation is like a misty fog in the morning, and as soon as the sun comes, it completely dissipates.

In a blink of an eye, it was October 19, the day before Zhu Heyu's wedding. To furnish the new house. According to the rules, Zhuran, the concubine, should dust the new house, spread the happy quilt, and paste the happy word, which shows the concubine's respect for the main house, and also means that they can live together in harmony in the future.

The two Xi Po sent by Concubine Zheng's mother's family pretended to be polite and came to Fuhuan Courtyard to invite Zhuran. "Side Princess, please!"

Zhu Ran silently looked at the two Xi women in red clothes, and a burning pain suddenly spread in his heart.

"This hasn't even entered the door, but it's playing grand!" Shui Xin said directly to the two Xi Po.

"The two mothers have been doing so many happy events, how can they not understand the rules like this, our wife has just washed up, and she can't even take care of breakfast. Why is this new house cleaned today, and the bride can enter the door! Ruoyi handed the two Xi Po tea and smiled at the two.

"Yo, our rough mother-in-law got up early, and I don't want the princess to have dinner yet, it's really not thoughtful, and I hope the princess will forgive me." The two Xi Po said words of forgiveness, but there was no intention of asking for forgiveness on their faces.

"Come on, send the two mothers back to the East Courtyard first, and the princess will go over after breakfast!" If you are instructed to go outward.

The two Xi Po left, and Ruoyi came to breakfast. smiled: "Madame, eat some!" ”

Shui Xin snorted in the place where the two of them had just stood and scolded: "This is also too deceitful, how can you come to urge people when there is a time!" ”

Seeing Ruoyi give Shui Xin a look, Zhu Ran said: "How can I just drink some porridge, and get me another steamed bun, for a while... I will do physical work. Zhu Ran felt that she was weak, Zhu Heyu's wife hadn't married in yet, she was just a two woman, and it made her feel so uncomfortable.

"I'm looking for the prince, what kind of shabby work, there are all subordinates in the palace, do you have to do it with your wife!" Shui Xin said as he walked out. Ruoyi grabbed her sleeve and shouted: "Why are you so ignorant, what kind of mess is there at this time!" ”

"You can't find him, he hasn't been here for more than a month, where are you going to find him." A line of tears finally couldn't help but slide down, and Zhu Ran asked in his heart: Zhu Heyu, why are you always tears when you bring me. When I don't like you, I like you.

"Ruoyi accompany me to the new house, Shui Xin will clean the house" Zhu Ran wiped away his tears and said to Ruoyi and Shui Xin.

Walking out of the floating courtyard, Ruoyi followed the bamboo, turned his head, and wiped away the tears in his eyes. I wanted to comfort Zhu Ran, so I said it when I was uncomfortable, don't hold it quietly in my heart like this, but as soon as I called: "Madame......" I couldn't open my mouth.
