Chapter 14: Prince and Princess Su
Prince Su's Mansion is very lively today, the reason is, of course, everyone guesses, Prince Su's birthday today.
Originally, although Prince Su and Princess Su were favored by Prince Su, it was definitely not to the point where an ordinary birthday had to be done in a big way.
But a few days ago, the imperial doctor just diagnosed that the princess was two months pregnant, which is a great joy!
The princess has been married into Prince Su's mansion for almost ten years, and she is alone, but she has nothing to do. The old princess was in a hurry, and she always wanted to stuff people next to her son, but her son refused to accept any of them, for ten years, she thought that they would not be able to get out of the prince's mansion, but she didn't expect that her daughter-in-law was pregnant!
Definitely a big deal!
Just in time for his birthday, the whole government unanimously agreed to do it.
Prince Su sent a wedding post, and invited almost everyone who could be invited in the capital, which shows how happy he is.
Prince Lao Su is the brother of the former emperor with the same father and mother, leading the affairs of the royal family, and his power is very great among the royal relatives and nobles, but he generally does not interfere in national affairs.
And Prince Su is the boss of the Zongren Mansion, although he can only manage the imperial prince, no one can deny his appeal and power in his hands.
The life and death of the people and even the ministers are in the hands of the emperor, and everything about the people in the imperial family is closely related to the clansmen and clansmen.
Therefore, Prince Su's Mansion has no conflict of interest with those high-ranking officials, and everyone who can come is here, and the carriage outside Prince Su's Mansion can't even enter the alley.
Princess Su, who was entertaining the ladies in the backyard, that is, Yu Wu'er's eldest sister Yu Yawei, she didn't see her sister coming for a long time, and she suddenly became suspicious.
"Yue'er, go outside and take a look, is my sister here? Is it that there are too many carriages to get in? She summoned her personal maid and commanded.
"Yes, princess, slave will go." The maid, who was Yue'er, heard the words and saluted respectfully, hurriedly put down the things in her hand and hurried out.
After a long time, Yue'er hurried back again, found the princess, and saw that she was talking to the guests, but she didn't have any scruples and stepped forward directly and said: "Princess, the slave didn't see the sixth lady, but found the carriage of the Changning Marquis Mansion."
When the princess heard this, she immediately smiled apologetically at the lady who had been speaking, and went to another place before she asked carefully, "What's the matter?"
"Back to the princess, when the slave went outside, he didn't see the six ladies along the way, and he asked the housekeeper and said that he didn't see it, so the slave went to check the carriage and found the carriage of the Changning Marquis's mansion, but the coachman only said that only the Changning Marquis and the prince came today, and the six ladies did not come." Yue'er 1510 replied.
The princess frowned tightly after hearing this, a little worried, thought about it and ordered: "Is something wrong with the little sister?" I sent her an invitation in advance - you go to the front hall again and ask the third brother what's going on? ”
"Yes."
The old princess finally has the hope of her grandson, so she has been paying attention to the whereabouts of the princess, for fear of bumping into it. She saw that the princess had ordered the maid twice in a row, and she was afraid that something would happen, so she left someone and came to inquire about it.
"What's going on, what's going on? Daughter-in-law, tell me about ......"
To tell the truth, Yu Yawei is very incompatible with her mother-in-law, in the early years, she just got married, she felt that she was too flamboyant and didn't like it, and then she was a sole pet for ten years and never got pregnant, and she was even more openly and secretly.
I didn't want to answer her, but there were too many people in the house today to be talked about, so I said concisely: "It's nothing, my sister didn't come today, I'll let Yue'er ask."
"Your sister is the sixth lady of the Marquis of Changning? Naturally, she won't be able to come—by the way, she gave you a letter a few days ago that I forgot to give you, and I will have someone bring it to you. The old princess suddenly realized something in the middle of her words, and changed the topic by force.
"Why didn't you give it to me then?" So Yu Yawei only paid attention to the second half of the sentence, she looked at her, and couldn't help but ask coldly. If she hadn't talked about it today, she wouldn't have known about it, and she wouldn't have said anything if she had any disputes with her in the past, but she also withheld the family letter, which was really unbearable!
The old princess opened her mouth and didn't say anything, there was that kind of rumor in the Marquis of Changning Mansion at that time, how dare she give her the family letter, in case there was any news in it that stimulated her grandson who had been looking forward to it for many years, it would be a big sin.
"Go and get the letter now." Yu Yawei didn't want to hear what she said, so she said directly.
"This will not work—" the old princess immediately refused.
"You-"
"I've seen the old princess, princess." At this moment, Yue'er had already come over, interrupting their tense atmosphere, because they didn't say anything because they were afraid that the old princess was there.
"Say, what did the third brother say?" Yu Yawei didn't have anything that she couldn't let know, so she opened her mouth and told her to say it directly.
Yue'er looked at the old princess quietly, and hurriedly lowered her head when she heard the words: "The slave went to ask the prince, and the prince said that the sixth lady had recently been infected with wind and cold because of greed, and she was afraid that she would be sick and gave the princess no time, so she only gave a gift, please don't worry about the princess." Shizi also said...... also said, didn't the sixth lady send a letter three days ago, how can you ......"
Yu Yawei glanced at the old princess and sneered, but she didn't entangle her more. Knowing the reason, she was also relieved, bypassed the old princess, and took Yue'er directly to greet the female dependents.
Everyone stayed in the palace until the afternoon, sending off the last guest, and Yu Yawei found the old princess to return the letter.
When she returned to the room, she carefully read the letter, thinking of the words that the old princess hurriedly changed the topic and almost missed today, pondered for a long time, and called Yue'er loudly.
Immediately, Yue'er came in from outside and said respectfully: "Princess, what's the matter with calling slaves?"
Yu Yawei stared at her tightly, refusing to let go of any clues, and asked her in a deep voice: "Yue'er, let me ask you, is there any bad news or rumors outside some time ago, such as ...... Changning Marquis Mansion. ”
Yue'er was slightly startled in her heart, but her face was silent, and she didn't show anything wrong, and said, "Back to the princess, there was indeed something outside a few days ago that the people talked about. It is the interesting story of Zhongyong Gong chasing his young son three streets, which has become a joke in the market. ”
"Other than that, only the prince of Wen Hou asked for the title of the descendants of the ministers and the establishment of a guard for the emperor."
Yu Yawei believed that she was telling the truth, but—
"Yue'er, you have followed me for many years, you know my character, and it is not unheard of to conceal the truth and not report it, you know how I deal with it."
"This kind of behavior is unfaithful to me. Those who are unfaithful are useless to stay! Yu Yawei personally poured a cup of white tea and said lightly in her hand.
Hearing this, Yue'er's face finally changed, and she immediately knelt down as soon as her legs became weak.
