Chapter 5 Asking for a dowry
A year ago, Yan Xi married from the general's mansion and brought a dowry that was three times that of the Minyang Palace.
After Tan Nanyao handed over the whole house to Granny Zhen to take care of, she didn't eat kickbacks in it.
Now that those good things have been transferred to her name, if she wants to return them to Yan Xi, it will kill her!
Absolutely not give!
"I will re-arrange two maidservants for the princess to serve her, and you will work by my side in the future." Zhen Nanniang said lightly.
It can be regarded as a sweetness and a reward for this servant girl who came to ventilate and report the news.
"Thank you, nurse!" The maidservant replied excitedly.
No one in the entire palace knows, except for the most noble person in the Minyang King, the most noble is Zhen Nanniang, as long as she can stay by Zhen Nanniang's side to do things, there is no need to be afraid that Yan Xi will come to her to ask for those things......
"Nurse, Mrs. Fang Caiyan asked her to send some fine silk to the princess, and the slave thinks it's okay to tell you, after all, the palace is your master." The servant girl looked at the opportunity to pat her ass.
Granny Zhen smiled with satisfaction, her wrinkles were mixed with the smell of copper, "Even if you have the eyesight, you don't have to disturb the prince and princess in this kind of thing, I'll just help her keep it." After all, the princess is diligent and thrifty, and she doesn't need to give it to her. ”
"That's what the nurse said." The handmaid echoed.
It's a pity that the little Jiujiu in their hearts has not had a chance to implement it, and their enthusiasm is extinguished by a basin of cold water.
The nurse came in to report, "Granny Zhen, the people from the General's Mansion also sent two maids, saying that they were arranged to serve the princess, and the two maids had to say that they would hand over the silk to the princess, and they would not let the subordinates of our palace carry it." ”
Grandma Zhen slapped the case angrily, "The people in the General's Mansion are too much, and they don't look at whose territory they are stepping on, they dare to bully the palace!" ”
"That's it! When you enter the gate of the palace, you have to do things according to the rules of the palace, since they are two subordinates, where can they be allowed to be presumptuous, this is not deliberately to show the face of the nurse. The servant girl said dog-legged.
With the servant girl's sycophant, Granny Zhen came to the compound with a few people menacingly.
She saw that there were only two maidservants guarding the boxes of silk, so she said with great momentum: "There is no shortage of maids in our Minyang Palace, and the princess will naturally be taken care of, so you can put down your things and go back to the General's Mansion." ”
The two maids only glanced at Granny Zhen and didn't say anything.
"Why are the people in the General's Mansion so rude!" Granny Zhen reprimanded, "Don't you understand what I said? ”
"We're going to see my young lady." One of the slightly fierce maidservants said.
"The princess is resting, I will have someone send something."
The fierce servant girl sneered, "When the servant girl who came out of the general's mansion has no rules and no brains like you, it is your turn to be a nurse in the palace to arrange for us to do things?" ”
"My young lady is the princess, Mrs. Yan let us see the princess to hand over the silk, then we must see the princess, where do we need a subordinate to point fingers!" The other chimed in.
Zhen Niangniang was exhausted.
She hates it most when someone talks about her identity, no matter how she says that she is also the nurse of the king of Minyang, the grace of her adoptive mother is greater than the sky, why do these outsiders look down on her? !
"Someone, send off!" Granny Zhen shouted.
When the nurse was preparing to take action under the orders of Grandma Zhen, he was stopped by a sudden voice.
"I see who dares!" Yan Xi shouted.
There was wind under her feet, and she glanced at her when she passed by Granny Zhen.
There were tears in the eyes of the two maidservants, and they happily gathered around her, and shouted in unison: "Miss! ”
I haven't seen her for a year, and her young lady has lost a lot of weight!
Sure enough, the king of Minyang didn't treat her young lady well!
"Bright moon, wind lotus?" Yan Xi shouted a little uncertainly.
This should be the names of these two maidservants, in the memory of the original owner, these two people are the two secret guards given to her by General Yan in the year of Yan Xi and Xu.
However, after the original owner insisted on marrying Tan Nanyao, the two secret guards were taken back by General Yan.
No wonder Yan Xi looked at the posture of these two people, they didn't look like ordinary maidservants, they turned out to be very capable!
No wonder, in the face of Granny Zhen's arrogance, she is not afraid of the group of nurses at all.
Yan Xi took their hands and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm here, see who dares to drive you away!" ”
After speaking, Yan Xi also deliberately glanced at Granny Zhen and the maidservant girl behind her.
Granny Zhen met Yan Xi's gaze with a smile, and said, "Princess, have you forgotten that you were grounded by the prince?" Just such a big horn came out to meddle in the affairs of the house? What's more, there are rules in the Minyang Palace, and outsiders are not allowed to enter the palace at will, this is not the General's Mansion, and you have to do things according to the rules here! ”
"That's really embarrassing, am I a pampered daughter or Minyang Palace, my mother just arranged for two maids to come over, how can I be considered an outsider?! What's more, I am the princess given by the emperor to the king of Minyang, and I have the final say in some rules! Yan Xi replied without showing weakness.
Mingyue Fenghe looked at her in surprise.
Their young ladies were very soft in temper before, why haven't they seen each other for a year, they have changed so much, and now they have a bit of the demeanor of the daughter of the gate.
Granny Zhen's face is getting more and more ugly, and this cheap girl is becoming more and more difficult to control, and she will talk about her being the emperor's marriage at every turn. still scolded her in front of outsiders, and she is not right to say anything now!
But it's not okay not to say it, if you really let the people from the General's Mansion come in, there will be two pairs of eyes by Yan Xi's side in the future, how can she teach this cheap girl a lesson, and how can she draw the good things sent by the General's Mansion?
Even, maybe the matter of Yan Xi's dowry can't be covered......
Granny Zhen's brain was running wildly, trying to find a way to break the game, but Yan Xi didn't give her time.
"Also, when I married Tan Nanyao, my father and mother gave me a lot of dowry, and I bothered Grandma Zhen to send the dowry list to my yard along with these boxes of silk, if there is a penny less, I will ask you!" Yan Xi said coldly to Nurse Zhen.
Granny Zhen's face turned gray, and she almost didn't catch her breath.
I'm really afraid of what, what's going on with this today?!
In a hurry, she blurted out in confusion, "Since the princess has married into the Minyang Palace, your things are naturally from the palace, and the princess is afraid that the mouse will not be able to bite it." ”
Well, Granny Zhen's old woman's weak heart is greasy?!
Yan Xi smiled contemptuously, "Heh, when did my dowry become the palace?" Zhen Nanniang was born humble, she has never read or read, and she is afraid that she does not understand the laws of the dynasty.
"The dowry of the woman's marriage belongs to the woman, even if she divorces, the dowry has nothing to do with the husband's family, the king of Minyang is also a royal family, it won't be to be greedy for my dowry, right? What the nurse said today is what you mean or what the prince meant? ”
Yan Xi's voice became colder and colder, and his eyes were sharp and ruthless, staring at Zhen Nanniang's heart.
Granny Zhen could only smile, "What is the princess doing so seriously, the dowry has been in the palace for so long, and it will take time to count it, I can't send the list to you now." ”
Yan Xi hooked his lips, "Okay, then I'll wait for the nurse to count and send it to me, don't let me find out anything." Otherwise, it would be bad to hear that the dowry of King Minyang's greedy wife would be unpleasant......"
When she said the last sentence, she smiled very gloomily, and the smile made Grandma Zhen's heart furious.
The once obedient fool has changed his temperament and become cunning, and he can't fool her with a little excuse.
Granny Zhen hates in her heart!
