Chapter Seventy-Three: Borrowing Flowers to Offer Buddha

"Back to His Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince set off early yesterday morning." Li Gong is fair.

"Hey...... It turns out that the eldest brother has already set off, and it is a pity that I can't go the same way with the eldest brother. King Chen looked quite regretful.

When Rong Yunxi looked at him like that, he knew that he was doing it for others to see. Gonggong Li will inevitably tell the emperor about King Chen's reflection.

"My father-in-law went back to tell his father, saying that his sons would clean up and leave the day after tomorrow." King Chen.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the old slave will definitely convey it." Li Gong is fair.

When Gonggong Li left the house, as soon as King Chen and Rong Yunxi turned around, they saw five women behind them and five maids behind them, standing like a human wall.

"It's all gone." King Chen waved his hand.

"Yes." The five women and the five maids responded in unison.

King Chen rubbed his forehead, looking still quite a headache.

Back at Zhaode Courtyard, Rong Yunxi glanced at the thick stack on the desk that she had copied, and asked, "Your Highness, the things that the Queen Mother has explained haven't been copied yet?" What to do? ”

King Chen said casually: "It's okay, I'll take these and go back to the imperial grandmother later, saying that my father sent me to supervise the errand, but I really don't have the time to finish copying it, and it is estimated that the imperial grandmother will not embarrass me." ”

"Originally, the Queen Mother would not embarrass Her Highness", Rong Yunxi smiled and said, "How could the Queen Mother not recognize His Highness's handwriting?" Originally, it was just for show, but in this way, His Royal Highness had to let the concubine do it. ”

"Isn't this giving Concubine Ai a chance? Wouldn't it be good to let the imperial grandmother know that you and I love each other? King Chen smiled.

"It's good...... Rong Yunxi rubbed his wrist, "It's just bitter." ”

King Chen smiled, and suddenly looked at Rong Yunxi expectantly: "Concubine Ai, if you go to Huai'an Mansion this time, it will take three or five months to return." You said that in these days, you have been with this dynasty at night, but you will be tempted by this king? ”

"Isn't it time and night together?" Rong Yunxi smiled, "Your Highness, do you think that the concubine is tempted?" ”

"Tsk...... Thou shalt coax this king, and it will be good and harmless to thee. Why is your brain so open! King Chen shook his head.

"The concubine is not open, but in this palace, there must be someone who is open." Rong Yunxi said with a smile.

King Chen looked at her and looked like she was watching a good show, but asked, "What does the concubine mean?" ”

Rong Yunxi smiled: "It is estimated that after an hour, the concubine will be lively in this Zhaode Courtyard." If His Royal Highness wants to take someone with him, he might as well inform the concubine, and the concubine can make arrangements. ”

The emperor's decree said that King Chen was allowed to go with the princess, which was on the surface. It seems to be a favor to King Chen, but in fact it is a constraint on him. There are many beauties in Jianghuai, King Chen and the prince are still like fish in water when they get over there? The crown prince does not have a concubine, so it is naturally difficult to understand the will of this constraint, but King Chen is different.

The emperor said that King Chen would bring the concubine with him, but he did not say that King Chen was not allowed to bring other concubines except the princess. This time the journey is far away, and after arriving there, the time is long, and King Chen brings two or three concubines and maids to take care of his daily life, which is a normal thing.

was waiting for King Chen to make a choice among his beauties, but he saw King Chen shake his head and said, "Don't bring it." There are many beauties in Sanhuai, and this king is looking for it over there. There is something new to find, so why bother with the old one? ”

Rong Yunxi smiled "poof" and said, "Your Highness is happy, but as soon as Your Highness's meaning comes out, what can you do with the concubine?" According to the meaning of the concubine, one or two sisters should still be chosen to accompany her. But since His Highness said so resolutely that he would not bring ...... It's better for His Royal Highness to let Mama Jin order to go down, just say that His Highness meant, no one will bring it, and they will not be allowed to come to see him. ”

King Chen glanced at her: "You will find leisure." But this king just didn't say it. As the princess of this king, shouldn't Concubine Ai be able to handle this little thing? But it's too embarrassing. ”

Rong Yunxi shook her head and smiled, knowing that King Chen was deliberately making trouble for her.

Without waiting for her to "rest assured" King Chen, she heard Qiu Dao: "Niangniang, Lu Meiren came to ask to see." ”

It's fast enough. This Lu Meiren is inevitably too composed, right?

King Chen's eyes moved slightly, and he said to Rong Yunxi: "Forget it, this king won't embarrass you." Since she is here, go and tell her, and we will take her with us. Then let Mama Jin order to go down, and said that it was the king's intention, and brought Lu Meiren there, and no one else was brought. ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Rong Yunxi responded very respectfully, but the smiling eyes seemed to be able to see through King Chen.

"Love the concubine......" King Chen said angrily, "knowing without saying is great wisdom." ”

"Where did the concubine say anything?" Rong Yunxi said with a smile.

King Chen waved his hand and said, "You call her in to talk, just say that this king is sleeping." ”

After saying that, he walked to the dormitory. It seems that he is not interested in this Lu Meiren, who has always been very fond of her.

"Let the beauty in." Rong Yunxi said to Zhiqiu.

Lu Caixi entered the house gracefully, and saluted Rong Yunxi in a proper manner: "The concubine is to ask for peace to the mother." ”

"Sister, please get up." Rong Yunxi helped her up very enthusiastically.

smiled at the grudge, and didn't remember anything before.

"In the past few days, the concubine has nothing to do, and she personally made some snacks, wanting to pay tribute to her mother...... Qiu Yan ...... Take it in. Lu Caixi said, turning around and calling her maid.

Qiu Yan, who was standing outside the door, answered and came in with a food box.

Lu Caixi took it, put it on the round table in the room, opened it, and said to Rong Yunxi: "The concubine doesn't know if it fits the appetite of the mother, but she just thinks that the climate is dry in the spring, so she made lily cake and mung bean cake for the mother, as well as the rose cake that nourishes the face." If the mother doesn't dislike it, and taste it with His Royal Highness? ”

"Let's put it here first, Concubine Ben didn't feel comfortable eating at lunch, and she couldn't eat these things now. His Highness had just gone to sleep in his bedroom, and it was not easy to wake him up. Rong Yunxi said with a smile.

"It's fine. These cakes can be put in for a day or two. Lu Caixi said with a smile.

In fact, Rong Yunxi could directly tell her King Chen's plans, but she didn't take this kind of way of telling her happily and sending her away quickly. Instead, he smiled and said, "Sister, please sit down, don't be restrained, let's talk for a while." ”

Didn't King Chen pretend to be asleep? It's better to let her sell a favor to Lu Caixi.

Although Lu Caixi will not miss her good son because of this, in the next few months, it is always good to disrespect her face.

"I heard that Sanhuai is over there, and it's already very hot at this time. I don't know if His Royal Highness and Niangniang went over there, and whether they could stand the heat. It would be reassuring to have someone who is able to serve you. But...... Hey, it's also that the concubine body is too careless. I always feel that if I didn't serve by my side, if I couldn't see His Royal Highness and Niangniang live comfortably over there, the concubine's body would always be restless......"

"If the mother doesn't dislike it, can you let the concubine follow? The concubine is willing to serve by the side of the mother day and night, as a maid. ”

Lu Caixi sat on the round bench next to the round table and opposite Rong Yunxi. After taking his seat, he said this.

Rong Yunxi smiled, thinking that she had said it happily and got straight to the point.

"The concubine serves the mother sincerely, this request, not only in front of the mother, but also in front of His Royal Highness, the meaning of the concubine will not change. I only hope that the mother will not dislike the concubine and allow the concubine to go together. Lu Caixi added these two sentences.

These two sentences are quite meaningful.

Meaning, if you don't agree, I'll go and beg Your Highness, anyway, Your Highness spoils me. If Your Highness agrees, and sees that you are hindering it, you will definitely not be pleased.

Rong Yunxi just sat quietly, smiled slightly, and said, "Don't hide it from my sister, before His Royal Highness went to sleep, he had already informed the concubine, saying that he would choose one of the concubines in the palace to accompany him." This matter is chosen by the concubine ......"

Rong Yunxi said, glanced at Lu Caixi's somewhat embarrassed face, still smiled steadily, and said, "Since my sister has this meaning, it is better for this concubine to finalize my sister now." Since His Royal Highness has given full authority to the concubine in this matter, His Royal Highness will not object to the person who wants to come to the concubine's appointment. ”

"Sister, don't worry about going back, as for this as a maid's service, don't mention it again. My sister only needs to serve His Highness well. ”

Rong Yunxi deliberately aggravated the words "duty".

Hearing that Rong Yunxi had finalized her so happily, Lu Caixi hurriedly got up, knelt on the ground and saluted: "Concubine, thank you for your love." Rest assured, the concubine will never live up to her mother's entrustment, and she will definitely ...... Serve His Highness in his own right. ”

Lu Caixi also emphasized the words "duty".

Rong Yunxi helped her get up and said with a smile: "Okay, sister, don't be polite." In the next few months, you and I will be treated as sisters, and my sister should not always be restrained. ”

"Yes. The mother carries love, and the concubine is grateful. Lu Caixi said.

"Okay, Your Highness is sleeping, and the concubine won't keep you. Your intention to send snacks, when His Royal Highness wakes up, the concubine will tell you on your behalf. Rong Yunxi said with a smile.

"Yes, thank you. In this way, the concubine will not be disturbed, and the concubine will retire. Lu Caixi said.

Before leaving, Rong Yunxi also gave her a dose of reassurance: "When I turned around, Concubine Jin asked Mama Jin to pass it on, saying that His Royal Highness only brought one person with him, and Lu Meiren had already been determined, so that they didn't have to come to see her." ”

Lu Caixi saluted Rong Yunxi again, and then retreated.

Hearing that Lu Caixi was gone, King Chen was still reluctant to leave the soft bed. greeted Rong Yunxi in the bedroom: "Aifei, you come in." ”

Rong Yunxi entered the bedroom, saw King Chen lazily leaning on the pillow, his head resting on his hands, and smiled at her: "You will buy people's hearts." ”

Rong Yunxi said with a smile: "Thanks to His Royal Highness's blessing, the concubine is just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha." ”
