Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Princess of the Northern Desert
On the first night of the prince's triumphant return, he naturally stayed at the princess's Hui Yaxuan.
"Niangniang, Your Highness is here. After the mother finished bathing and changing, it was time to go back to the room. The maid Zhuye said cautiously.
The crown princess nodded indifferently, "Well, let's serve the palace to change clothes!" ”
The lilac embroidered peony flower bedgown, the skirt mopping the floor. The crown princess Niang Yingying, who had not applied powder, walked towards His Royal Highness the Prince, and Shi Shiran saluted, "See His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked up in amazement, and was already caught in the gentle eyes of the Crown Princess.
He smiled, "You've rarely dressed so delicately. ”
The crown princess also smiled, "The concubine thinks that occasionally wearing it like this can be regarded as a kind of affection." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince put down the military book in his hand, reached out and held the Crown Princess's Qianqiansu hand, "It's not early, let's rest!" ”
The candle flame dimmed, the gauze tent fell, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince kissed the Crown Princess, and the Crown Princess couldn't help but tremble. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince barely extinguished the desire/fire in his body.
He smiled softly, "I won't force you, one day, I will let you follow me willingly." ”
The crown princess was stunned and looked at His Royal Highness the crown prince in disbelief. But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already fallen asleep with the Crown Princess in his arms.
Today, I reunite with the old man, and the old man is no longer the old man. also made her discouraged and gave up her original vow.
If she can accept it, then it will be a good thing for those involved.
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... After all, she underestimated her place and weight in his heart. It turned out that the prince was so attentive to her.
So much so that she was so moved that she wanted to make a personal promise. After all, Han Yuanxi is no longer her Han Yuanxi. The two of them will never be possible.
The next day, when the crown princess woke up, there was no trace of His Royal Highness the crown prince by her side.
After eating without knowing the taste, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returned from outside the house. walked straight to the crown princess and opened the box in her hand.
Inside was an extremely precious and rare jade bracelet of half-mutton fat, white jade, and half-blood jade.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't help but put this bracelet on the wrist of the Crown Princess. smiled, "The size is just right, do you like it?" ”
The crown princess looked at the bracelet on her wrist in a daze, and smiled for a long time, "I like it very much." ”
The crown princess has always liked mutton fat white jade and purple jade, but today's jade bracelet makes her really like it.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled gently, "If you like it, wear it if you like!" ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess walked into the house together, and the Crown Princess said, "I have something to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”
"What do you want to ask?"
"What did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by the hibiscus agarwood hairpin that day?" The crown princess looked puzzled.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only said indifferently, "What I thought about back then is not the scene I have now. ”
"His Royal Highness the former crown prince was the king of Qin, so even if I had military exploits, my father still rewarded me with a hibiscus hairpin that praised civil officials."
"Hibiscus hairpin, I naturally don't like it. Because this hairpin shouldn't have been given to me. And you, in my opinion, have an intellect comparable to those civil ministers, and I have given you the hairpin. ”
"I see! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really looks down on his concubines. The crown princess said indifferently.
The crown princess suddenly said, "Another big event happened in the capital today, last night the princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom ran out of the post house crying and was almost assassinated. ”
"Assassination?" The crown princess asked in shock, and then asked, "Could it be that King Qin sent someone to do it?" ”
"It was the hired Jianghu people, and I didn't find out who the mastermind was."
"Then the princess of the Northern Desert, why did she cry and run out in the middle of the night?" The crown princess asked suspiciously.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hesitated for a moment, but said truthfully, "I heard that it was an awkward quarrel with the horse. ”
The crown princess was stunned for a moment, then said "oh" and said, "I see." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to be unaware of the changes in the Crown Princess, and only said, "This time I returned triumphantly, and my father gave me a three-day rest, where do you want to go shopping?" ”
The crown princess thought for a while and said, "Now that the osmanthus flowers are fragrant, I want to go to Zhuangzi to pick some osmanthus flowers to make wine." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled and said, "Since the Crown Princess has such a Yaxing, I naturally want to fulfill it." I hope that next year, I will be able to drink the osmanthus wine made by the princess herself. ”
The crown princess suddenly asked, "The chrysanthemums are in full bloom, and Princess Chaoyang's chrysanthemum banquet is coming soon, right?" ”
"Princess Chaoyang has released an invitation, and it will be a chrysanthemum banquet in three days." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said.
"The eldest princess of Chaoyang has no heirs, only her niece Jinghe is deeply loved by Princess Chaoyang, and now that the chrysanthemum banquet is imminent, His Royal Highness still lifts the grounding of the side concubine! It is also good to reassure Princess Chaoyang. The crown princess said indifferently.
"Aunt Chaoyang is indeed a rare woman who understands righteousness! Anyway, I lifted the concubine's grounding. As long as she can keep to herself in the future, I will not treat her badly. ”
The crown princess smiled, "Your Highness should go to the side concubine a few times a month." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled when he heard this, "Is this really what the Crown Princess thinks?" ”
Then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said solemnly, "Although the Crown Princess is not a jealous person, I don't want to go to others. ”
The crown princess smiled, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be the Ninth Five-Year Emperor in the future, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling, I am afraid that he will have to have three palaces and six courtyards in the future!" ”
"Many concubines, in order to weigh the power of the court, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really want to guard his concubines like jade?" The crown princess said this, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were sneering.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also smiled and said, "The balance of power and art, His Royal Highness naturally wants to achieve it." But loving the crown princess wholeheartedly is also what this prince is willing to do. ”
The crown princess's face changed slightly, and she hurriedly changed the topic and said, "What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to eat for lunch?" Now that the crabs are in their prime, the concubine instructed the small kitchen to make a lot of crabs, including crab roe crisp, crab meat pot, and steamed crabs. ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said with a smile, "Naturally, I want to have lunch in Hui Yaxuan, but the crabs are cold, and the princess should eat less." ”
The crown princess chuckled, "Isn't there still osmanthus wine to warm up?" What's more, the concubine used the pills prescribed by the doctor, and now she is much better. ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had no choice but to say, "Then use less and stop at a shallow taste." ”
The crown princess smiled, "Today, the side concubine is lifted from the grounding, so the concubine will let people send some to the side concubine." ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's complexion did not change, "Just follow your wishes." ”
At lunchtime, as soon as the crown princess ordered someone to put the meal on the table, the housekeeper outside came to report, "The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom asks to see her." ”
The crown princess was stunned for a moment, and then said, "The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom is coming, please come in soon!" ”
As soon as the crown princess finished speaking, the princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom walked in with a smile, "The princess is gracious." ”
The crown princess smiled, "The princess can come, does it really make the prince's mansion shine?" ”
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom smiled modestly, "I came to visit rashly today, I hope the crown princess will not be surprised." ”
The crown princess smiled, "I just steamed crabs at noon today, so why don't princesses eat together!" ”
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom was frank and calm, "Okay! ”
"Isn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the mansion?" The princess of the Northern Desert looked around.
The crown princess said with a smile, "I was going to have lunch in the mansion, but I had something to do, so I went out." ”
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom responded clearly, obviously knowing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was investigating the case. That case was the case of her assassin last night.
It was precisely because she knew about this that she came to visit the prince's mansion.
In Huiyaxuan, the crown princess and the princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom had just taken their seats, and Qiushui said back and forth, "Niangniang, the side concubine Niangniang is here." ”
The princess's face remained unchanged and said, "The princess is here today, so you don't need the concubine to come over to say goodbye, you let the concubine go back first!" ”
The autumn water should fall, and he was going down to reply, but he was stopped by the princess of the Northern Desert.
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom said with a smile, "I heard that the side concubine of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the county lord of the Western Chu Kingdom, and the dance is not a problem, now I have something to discuss with the side concubine, I wonder if the princess can make it convenient?" ”
The crown princess smiled generously, "The princess is really versatile!" Although the princess eats, when she finishes lunch, I will send someone to invite the concubine over. ”
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom didn't say anything more when she heard this, and it was arranged by the crown princess.
When eating, pay attention to food and do not speak, so the crown princess and the princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom did not talk about anything.
But when eating tea after dinner, the princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom asked, "I take the liberty of asking, is the crown princess a righteous daughter recognized by the prime minister?" ”
The crown princess still smiled naturally, "Exactly." ”
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom put down the teacup in her hand thoughtfully, "I heard that the deceased eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is named Su Wenjin?" ”
The crown princess said indifferently, "When I entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, I never saw the honor of the eldest sister, but I saw that the family tree of the Prime Minister's Mansion did have the three characters Su Wenjin written on it. ”
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom nodded heavily, and then picked up the tea at hand and drank it.
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom only took a sip of tea, and then asked again, "I heard that the eldest daughter of this Prime Minister's Mansion and Han Shizi of the Zhenguo Mansion both died in the plague in the north?" ”
The crown princess's face stiffened slightly for a moment, and then said with a smile, "That's what I heard about it. ”
"Although I haven't seen it, I heard that the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion and Han Shizi are extremely talented and good-looking figures, so it can be seen that God is jealous of talents, it's really a pity."
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom smiled sarcastically, "Is it really a pity?" ”
The crown princess looked stunned and asked, "What does the princess mean by this?" ”
The princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom smiled but did not answer, picked up the teacup and drank the tea, and then said, "I visited rashly today, and I ask the princess to forgive me." Tuoba Bing took his leave first. ”
The crown princess hurriedly stood up, "The princess walks slowly." ”
"Zhuye, you ask Butler Wang to send the princess."
After the princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom left, the crown princess sat down heavily. Today, the princess of the Northern Desert Kingdom suddenly came to the mansion and suddenly said such a thing, obviously guessing about the previous incident.
It's just speculation, as long as there is no evidence, nothing can be done.
