Chapter 530: An Invitation to the Yun Family
Shen Yunwan's gaze swept over and found that the woman in the painting was not very similar to Fang Qi's appearance. Fang Qi looks good, but Fang Yan looks delicate, probably because of his mother.
Zizhu passed a few more portraits.
Shen Yunwan pinched the candied fingers and paused, and said casually: "Isn't there a woman of the right age in the Yun family?" Why don't you go to this portrait? ”
Zizhu was stunned for a moment, and immediately pleaded guilty to Shen Yunwan: "It's all the negligence of the slave maid, and the slave maid will add the young ladies of the Yun family." ”
"There's no need to do anything more, let someone send an invitation to the Yun family." Shen Yunwan said lightly.
"Niangniang, isn't it only Lord Yun who came to the capital this time, but also a few juniors of the Yun family?"
Zizhu didn't know that Song Qianmo had already handed over a note to Chen, and the movements of the Yun family were recorded clearly.
"Yun Zhen's two granddaughters, Yun Yayun is seventeen years old, and Yun Miaoran will be eighteen in two months, both of them have not yet decided on a marriage, and they are both staring at the position of His Royal Highness's side concubine, if it drags on any longer, she will become an old girl."
"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in the capital now, why does Yun Zhen think that he can shoehorn his granddaughter into our mansion? As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not nod, and the slave maid says something rebellious, it is useless for His Majesty to give an order. ”
Zizhu looked disdainful.
In this world, there is not only a man in His Royal Highness the Prince, but the Yun family has kept their two granddaughters to such a big age, and the appearance is too ugly.
"You don't understand that. At the beginning, Yun Zhen angered His Majesty, causing the Yun family to return to their hometown to avoid trouble, which seemed to be a complete defeat, but in fact it was to retreat. ”
Shen Yunwan sneered, and Shen Yunwan was clear about the abacus that Yun Zhen had played.
"Mother, how do you say this? The slave is stupid, and she asks the mother to make it clear. ”
Although Yun Zhen withdrew from the court, he left a clear reputation for being outspoken and not afraid of power, and even Xiao Yeheng wanted to receive his affection.
But in reality? It is clear that Yun Zhen saw that he could not do anything, and deliberately angered His Majesty, in order to protect the entire Yun family.
At the beginning, he turned his back on Xiao Yeheng, and now he sees Xiao Yeheng as the sun is in the sky, and he leans up through his grandson, such a villain who tends to be inflammatory, if he dares to rely on the friendship of the former half-master to rely on the old and sell the old, don't blame himself for being ruthless.
"Your Majesty wanted to be easy to store. It was Mrs. Zhou who knelt outside the Taiji Hall for seven days and seven nights, not dripping water, all supported by perseverance. Even if His Majesty finally sent Xu Yuan to sentence him for treatment, he still had no way to recover.
If it weren't for Mrs. Zhou's death, Xiao Junze would have been named the prince!
Since then, the Zhou family has left the capital and returned to their hometown in Jiangxi, and over the years, they have been detaining the children of the clan to study, but they have not allowed the children of the family to participate in the scientific examination. But in His Royal Highness's heart, he has never forgotten Mrs. Zhou. ”
Shen Yunwan sighed deeply, Xiao Yeheng was isolated at the beginning, and there was only one Queen Mother and one Mrs. Zhou standing beside him, and Mrs. Zhou was purer than the Queen Mother.
Xiao Yeheng is a student taught by Mrs. Zhou, the two are called master and apprentice, but they are similar to father and son, but Xiao Yeheng has never mentioned this name, because this is the deepest wound in his heart, and it has not healed so far.
Mrs. Zhou is like a master and a father, but the most beloved teacher died because of himself, who can pass this hurdle in his heart.
It was also because of Mrs. Zhou's "lesson from the past" that Yun Zhen was afraid, and after His Majesty gave him two choices, Yun Zhen chose to resign and return to his hometown.
It is human nature to be greedy for life and afraid of death, Shen Yunwan doesn't think Yun Zhen is wrong, but he shouldn't come up again after many years, and vainly want to use his former kindness to seek the position of the prince's concubine, if he didn't have himself, Xiao Yeheng would have been a handful of white bones a long time ago, and Shen Yunwan would never allow anyone to pick peaches halfway!
"Write the two granddaughters of the Yun family on the list and send them to the Queen Mother, and say that it means this palace."
Shen Yunwan is now the crown princess, except for the queen mother, her identity is the most precious, dealing with a mere Yun family, why bother to use roundabout means, the imperial power is down, with Yun Zhen's soft bones, can you still resist to the end?
"Don't worry, the slave will do it."
……
Since Shen Yunwan was canonized as the crown princess, it was the first time to hold a banquet.
The prince's mansion is full of lights, and the warehouse has been open in the past few days, and all kinds of utensils have been taken out like flowing water, just to hold this banquet.
"Hongu remembers that there are two feet tall red coral in the house A, and they are placed in the flower hall."
"Qiyu Crown Princess Niangniang, the key to the No. A warehouse is still with Aunt Cuiping, and Aunt Cuiping went out early in the morning to run errands."
Shen Yunwan's eyes were slightly stunned, since Cui Ping was punished by himself last time, he hadn't seen her once, obviously Cui Ping was deliberately avoiding herself.
Shen Yunwan was angry and funny.
She lazily lowered her eyelids and glanced at Xin Yi, who replied: "The huge prince's mansion, is there only one key, and there is no spare key?" ”
"Qiyu Crown Princess Niangniang, because the things in the warehouse of No. A are too valuable, so the locksmith only had a key at the beginning."
Hearing this, Shen Yunwan said coldly: "Go and invite Lu Changshi." ”
The key to the treasury was not in his hands, Shen Yunwan needed to know the reason.
Lu Feibai arrived quickly: "Xiaguan pays a visit to the crown princess." Qiyu Crown Princess Niangniang, the key to the A-brand warehouse was personally handed over to Miss Cuiping by His Royal Highness the Prince, for your convenience. ”
What Lu Feibai didn't say was that Cuiping hadn't fallen out of favor at the beginning, if the key was in his own hands, the crown princess would have to send someone to the front yard to get it, and His Royal Highness the prince would have such an arrangement in order to make it convenient for the crown princess.
Of course, I also had negligence, and later Cuiping fell out of favor, and I should have taken back the key as soon as possible. But this also involves the princess's disposal of Cuiping, and Cuiping is also the steward of the outer courtyard, which shows that the princess Niangniang did not harm Cuiping, if she goes to ask for the key, she will inevitably be suspected of falling into the well.
It's also a coincidence today, Cui Ping is not in the house, otherwise this matter will be passed quietly.
Since it was Xiao Yeheng's order, Shen Yunwan did not embarrass Lu Feibai anymore.
"Wait for Cui Ping to come back, let her come to see the palace."
"The lower officials obey the order." Lu Feibai was like being amnestied, and seeing that the crown princess had no other explanation, he respectfully retreated.
"Princess, do you want the slave to go to Sister Cuiping and ask for the key back?" Zizhu couldn't guess the princess's thoughts, and cautiously tried to say.
Shen Yunwan glanced at her lightly.
Zizhu was immediately silenced.
(
"At the beginning, you and Cuiping came to the palace with front and back, knowing that you have her in mind, but the palace doesn't like people who are good at making claims."
Although Basho was not wronged at the beginning.
"The slave knows her mistake, please forgive the slave and the maid this time, the slave and the maid will never dare again." Zizhu was so frightened that her face turned white, lest she was also rejected by the crown princess.
Zizhu didn't dare to imagine that if one day she couldn't follow the princess Niangniang, what would be the meaning of the rest of her life.
"Okay, as long as you do the things that Bengong has explained, can Bengong still punish you for no reason?" Seeing that Zizhu was frightened like this, Shen Yunwan couldn't help but soften his tone.
She simply talked to Zizhu.
"The depth of love and the depth of responsibility, whether it is you, or Cuiping, or Qingyu, this palace hopes that you will all be able to take charge of yourself in the future, understand?"
When Zizhu heard this, her pale face gradually regained its bloody color, and her eyes showed a deep joy: "Niangniang, the slave will definitely not let you down." ”
Shen Yun bowed his head, and a smile appeared on his lips: "You go and check the colorful garden where the banquet is set up inside and out, and there can be no omissions tomorrow." ”
"The slave understands."
After all the explanations were finished, Shen Yunwan leaned on the beauty couch and put a thin blanket on her body to take a nap.
She had been sleeping very deeply recently, and if she heard footsteps, she would have woken up long ago, but today, it wasn't until a soft call came from her ear that Shen Yunwan woke up from her sleep.
"Crown Princess, Aunt Cuiping has arrived."
"Come in."
Shen Yun shook his head.
"Slaves and maids see the crown princess Niangniang, the crown princess Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an." After many days, stepping into the main house again, Cuiping was quite timid, and his heart was full of mixed feelings, some of which were not tasteful.
Once people lose it, they know how precious those times are.
Just when Cui Ping was secretly worried, Shen Yunwan from above finally spoke: "I heard from the next person in this palace that you went out to run errands early in the morning......
"Back to the crown princess, the slave maid recently heard that Jiang Zhong often goes to a place, and I want to go to see what clues there are."
"Oh?" Shen Yunwan raised her eyebrows, a little interested, "Then did you find it?" ”
"Back to the crown princess, Jiang Zhong went to Taibai Mansion three times in three days, the day before yesterday was morning, yesterday was afternoon, and today is morning, every time he goes to the building, the dishes he orders are the same, and the slave suspects that he is secretly passing on the news to others."
This time, Cuiping was personally responsible for the stalking.
Jiang Zhong was too important, and Song Qianmo didn't feel at ease with who he handed over, so he chose Cuiping to squat in person.
Shen Yunwan didn't say anything more.
Instead, Cuiping took the initiative to speak.
She raised her hands high: "Niangniang, this is the key to the A-number warehouse, it is all the negligence of the slave maid, and the slave maid should have handed over the key a long time ago." ”
"Since His Highness handed it to you that day, you can take it."
Shen Yunwan said lightly.
Hearing this, Cui Ping showed a panicked look, and she knelt on the ground without hesitation: "The crown princess, it is the slave maid who is at fault first, and she has the trust of His Royal Highness the prince, and she also asks the princess to take back the key." Slaves and maids are not worthy. ”
The tip of Cuiping's tongue was full of bitterness, and she knew very well that by handing over this key, her relationship with the backyard would be completely broken.
But just like she said just now, the person who did the wrong thing was herself, so what kind of face did she have to plead with the crown princess.
Shen Yunwan looked at Cui Ping's sad appearance, Cui Ping probably didn't know that her shoulders had been trembling slightly.
Shen Yunwan said softly: "Are you questioning the decision of this palace? ”
"Mother, slaves don't dare to ......"
Cui Ping subconsciously raised her head, and after facing the soft gaze of the crown princess, a flash of inspiration flashed in her heart, and then, as if the whole person had been struck by lightning, she showed unbelievable ecstasy.
"Niangniang......" choked up, tears pouring down.
"In the future, let's go back to the palace to be an errand, those who can work hard, and the palace believes that you can do both jobs very well."
Shen Yunwan was relieved.
Cuiping now knows what "near death and life" is, Rao is that she can speak well, but at this moment, her throat seems to be blocked, and she can't say a word.
She could only express her gratitude by prostrating.
"Slave, thank you, Princess."
"Get up."
Shen Yunwan called outside: "Xin Yi, go and fetch a basin of water." ”
Xin Yi is also very eye-catching, she came in with a basin and said with a smile: "Aunt Cuiping, the slave is here to help you clean your face." ”
Cuiping wanted to refuse, but Shen Yunwan said: "Hurry up and put a compress on your eyes, don't cause unwarranted speculation for a while." ”
Cui Ping showed a rare shy smile.
She wiped her face, her whole person was surrounded by a coolness, her mind was unprecedentedly clear, and a touch of joy overflowed from the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
"Niangniang, is there a place where slaves and maids are needed for tomorrow's banquet?"
"This palace will hand over the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard to you together, you have to take care of the eyes of this palace, and don't make trouble."
"Please rest assured that the slave will live up to her mission." Cui Ping was full of energy, she made up her mind in her heart that she must hold tomorrow's banquet beautifully.
Compared with the busy and orderly and vigorous Prince's Mansion, the Yun family was trapped in a gloomy fog.
This time, it was the eldest lady of the Yun family's Changfang who went to Beijing with the two girls of the Yun family, Liu, who held the invitation sent by the prince's mansion in her hand, and showed a look like she was facing a great enemy: "What does it mean that the crown princess suddenly held a banquet?" And it's the girls who are waiting for the boudoir to be invited. ”
After the initial panic, Liu couldn't help but have a thought in her heart, and she said with surprise and joy: "Could it be that the crown princess wants to help His Royal Highness the crown prince choose a powerful arm?" ”
Liu subconsciously thought that the crown princess was helping His Royal Highness the prince win over the courtiers......
"Auntie, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not in the capital now, even if the Crown Princess has this idea, she has to wait for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come back."
Yun Yayun is not as optimistic as Liu.
She frowned: "Moreover, if the crown princess is going to choose a side concubine for His Royal Highness the prince, why do you want to feast on the unmarried Langjun?" ”
"You don't understand this, this is the princess's mother to hide people's eyes." Liu had already firmly believed in what he had just thought.
She looks confident.
"Father resigned for the sake of His Royal Highness the Prince, this is where your sisters are better than other ladies, but ...... After all, our Yun family has been away from the capital for too long, and in terms of strength, it is still slightly inferior. ”
The Liu family was a little suffocating, the father-in-law retreated too hastily at the beginning, if the father-in-law could avoid his edge at that time, maybe the current position of the crown princess would not have anything to do with the daughter of the Shen family.
Thinking of this, Liu's eyes couldn't help but fall on his daughter.
My daughter is good in all colors, but unfortunately, she is only one minute away from the opportunity!
