Chapter 358 No morning exercises (1st update)

Zhao Chengyuan took Han Youning's hand and walked behind Chong'an Hall.

He was in a good mood, walking leisurely and introducing the architectural scenery of the outer courtyard. Han Youning listened absentmindedly.

"Ling'er told me that Prince Ruyi Hairpin took it away."

After leaving the line of sight of the clan members who were seeing them off in front of Chong'an Hall, with only Luo Ping remaining as the guard around him, Han Youning spoke.

Zhao Chengyuan looked at her with a smile, "It turns out that little girl only has so much patience. I thought you could endure it until you return to the yard."

Han Youning's cheeks were bulging, and he frowned and glared at him, "Your Majesty, you should tell me. I had no intention of keeping that wishful hairpin."

Zhao Chengyuan pinched her cheek and coaxed with a smile, "I know that you refused to accept the prince's orchid hairpin at the beginning, so naturally you are not willing to accept this wishful hairpin. It's just that it's not convenient for you to talk when there are so many people around you.

I just plan to kill him first and then punish him. If you are angry, how about punishing me as you like when you return to Yongxi Hall?"

If the hairpin is not returned on the spot, the hairpin staying with the little girl for a day will occupy more of her mind, which is naturally not tolerated.

Han Youning snorted, "Then I'll think about it carefully."

She didn't mean to be angry, she was just afraid.

She had wanted to tell him many times recently about her past life, but she never had enough courage.

First, he was afraid that Zhao Chengyuan would be frightened and feel that he had married a ghost.

Second, she was very honest and trusting towards Zhao Chen in her previous life. She felt that he was the best man in the world. She told him everything about herself without reservation, just like a fish taking off every protective scale. But

Then disaster struck, and she didn't even have the strength to protect herself.

In this life, she doesn't want to make the same mistakes again, and she really doesn't dare to take risks.

She would wait and see again.

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, held her hand and walked through the moon gate, entering the courtyard behind Chong'an Hall.

There are two cedars and two towering ginkgo trees in the yard, with their branches spreading out in all directions. If it is spring and summer, they will definitely block out the sky and the sun, trapping the entire Shouan Hall in the shade.

Shouan Hall is the place of worship in the royal palace, where tablets of ancestors and gods are enshrined.

Among them are the tablets of the late emperor and the Queen Mother Lu, and the table in front of the incense table is filled with offerings of three animals and fruits.

Zhao Chengyuan lit three sticks of incense and stuck them in, stood in silence for a moment, turned around and said to Han Youning, "Kowtow to your father, the emperor and your mother."

Han Youning knelt on the futon and kowtowed three times. When he got up, he saw Zhao Chengyuan kneeling aside and looking quietly in the direction of the memorial tablet.

She originally thought that Zhao Chengyuan would say a few words to the late Emperor and the Queen Mother, but he said nothing and pulled her to stand up, "Let's go."

After leaving Shou'an Hall, they saw Lu Lin waiting outside, staring at Han Youning with his arms folded.

"The little girl really looks like that when she wears these clothes, but she looks a bit older."

Han Youning cleared his throat and said with a serious face, "How can you talk to your elders if you don't have any rules?"

Lu Lin smiled and said openly, "It's very fast to get into the state. I'm an elder..."

Zhao Chengyuan glanced at him indifferently, and Lu Lin calmed down in recognition of the current situation, and saluted respectfully, "Aunt Seventh Emperor."

Han Youning nodded seriously and said, "A-Lin, right? I'll make up for the meeting gift for you later."

Lu Lin sighed heavily, then felt relieved when he thought about the ten thousand taels of silver he had just received, and said enthusiastically, "Auntie Huang, grandma invites you to come over for lunch!"

It was already noon.

Zhao Chengyuan drove away Lu Lin and went back to Yongxi Hall with Han Youning to change clothes before going to the Hou Mansion.

When they arrived at the Moon Gate, which was guarded by the guards of the old woman, You Ning realized that there was a gate between the inner courtyards of the two mansions.

She said, "This is quite convenient. If you go around the corner gate, you will have to walk a lot longer."

However, Zhao Chengyuan frowned and looked at the Moon Gate for a moment, and then told the chief Shi Chenghan who was following him, "This gate will not be opened from now on. Visitors from the Hou Mansion will use the corner gate. When the first month is out, remember to block this gate."

"yes!"

Seeing Han Youning's confusion, Zhao Chengyuan said, "In the past, I was the only one living in the inner courtyard, so it was okay to have this moon gate. Now that you are here, there are mostly men in the Hou Mansion, so it is no longer suitable to open it."

Han Youning hummed.

They went to Qiu Shan Tang.

Standing neatly in front of the door of the living room were the old Marquis and his wife, Crown Prince Hou, and Lu Lin, kneeling to salute and meeting the prince and Princess Jin.

Han Youning couldn't bear it, but Zhao Chengyuan looked calm, held his hand and sat on the prepared grand master's chair, and accepted their courtesy calmly.

He whispered to Han Youning, "Discuss superiority first and then kinship. This is the rule."

Han Youning relaxed and gave the princes Lu Bing and Lu Lin a meeting gift.

This was the first time she met Prince Hou. He looked very much like the old prince. He was indeed taller, more handsome, and quite calm and taciturn than Lu Lin. He accepted the greeting and thanked him, then stopped talking. His temperament was completely opposite to Lu Lin's.

Entering the living room, the banquet was already served. Since there were only a few people and there were no separate tables for men and women, Mrs. Lu smiled and took Han Youning's hand and sat next to her, looking her up and down, and couldn't get enough of her.

"Good-looking, blessed. A Yuan is blessed to have such a good-looking wife."

"A-Yuan is married, and most of my worries have gone away. With you taking care of him, I feel relieved. I will have another big fat boy next year. I will hold two in three years, and three in five years, and the house will be just fine."

It’s lively.”

Han Youning blushed and lowered his head.

The old Marquis echoed his beloved wife's words, "Our Anling Marquis Mansion has always embraced two in three years and three in five years. A Yuan also has the blood of the Marquis, so he will definitely get this tradition! A Yuan, you can get it

Work hard!”

Mrs. Lu nodded with satisfaction, "Girl Ning has just entered the house and is unfamiliar with the place, so you should spend more time with her. There are also a few days of morning exercises. It happens to be the Chinese New Year, so let's stop first."

A Yuan was cold and cold, she didn't expect to be like this after getting married. She was just at the age of passion, and as a newlywed, shouldn't she want to stay in her room and not go out?

All the men present touched their chins and fell into inexplicable embarrassment. They turned to look at each other, picked up their chopsticks and said, "Uncle, eat the food, eat the food!"

Zhao Chengyuan picked up the chopsticks to pick up the food for the little girl. The little girl almost got under the table.

He smiled and said, "If my aunt keeps talking, You Ning will be embarrassed to even take a bite of food."

Mrs. Lu glanced at him and said, "It's good to know that you care about your wife. Ning Yatou is young, so you have to let her go."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Okay."

After lunch, Zhao Chengyuan drank tea with their grandfather and grandson, and then said to Han Youning, "You talk to your aunt first, and if you feel sleepy, take a nap. I will come back to find you later."

Han Youning responded, and Zhao Chengyuan turned to Lu Bing and said, "Let's go."

Lu Bing saluted Han Youning before leaving.

I will try my best to update the second update, but it may not be possible.

If it’s not there at eight o’clock in the evening, there’s a high chance it’s gone.
Chapter completed!
