Chapter 51 Tears flow into the river, the three princesses
"Is the old man who is thirty or forty years old? My father is thirty years old." In any case, Hua Jingyao could not put the three words "old man" on her beautiful father's head.
"That's different," Xiao Ai shook his head and looked serious, "The third master is a godlike person, and he will also be an old god when he grows old."
Hua Jingyao laughed loudly, Xiao Ai was startled and quickly pulled her girl aside. Madam You said it a hundred times, and she should not show her teeth. Her girl's smile showed her mouth full of teeth.
As soon as he arrived at Wutong Hutong, Shi Bing said through the curtains: "Miss, it may be that someone from the palace has come. Jinwu Guard has come outside the Hutong."
Hearing this, Hua Jingyao lifted the curtain and looked out. In the entire Wutong Alley, there was a Jinwu Guard standing every few steps.
All that came was Jinwu Guard, no Yulin Army, nor Feiyu Guard. If the emperor and the queen mother were traveling, there would be no only these people. I am afraid that the entire imperial city would be in martial law. Hua Jingyao was suspicious and got off the carriage at the gate. Shi Bing had already asked from the gate, and came back quickly, whispering: "Go back to the girl, the third princess is here."
"Three Princess? She is not..." Hua Jingyao covered her mouth suddenly and swallowed the words behind her.
Third Princess, didn’t she die long ago?
She calmed down and thought carefully that when she left the capital in her previous life, she was only ten years old. She didn't know how many princesses there were in the palace. Later, she went to the palace to be a palace maid. Only then did she know that the late emperor had seven sons and five princesses, including the third princess, the fourth princess, and the seventh princesses, who died at a very young age. As for how small it was, Hua Jingyao had never asked, but now it seems that at least at this time, the third princess is still alive.
"How old is the third princess? I forgot about it." Hua Jingyao asked leisurely while walking inside.
"I'm six years old. The third princess' birthday a while ago, didn't the girl give her a little rabbit in white fox skin? The girl has forgotten it herself." Shi Bing said with a smile.
Hua Jingyao was surprised. When she was a child in her previous life, she also had a little rabbit with white fox skin, the size of a real rabbit, with her eyes made of ruby. It was given to her by her sister, but it turned out that her sister also gave her one to the third princess for her birthday.
After entering the second door, Ziwei brought two little girls to meet them. With them, Yuli, the eldest maid next to Princess Zhaoyang.
Hua Jingyao asked with a smile: "Yuli, why did the third princess come here?"
Yu Li stepped forward and saw Hua Jingyao. She lowered her voice and said, "A while ago, the third princess had a fever and had been sick for a few days. After recovering from the illness, she went to Cining Palace to pay tribute to the Empress Dowager. The eldest prince also went to Cining Palace and talked to the Empress Dowager... When talking about the Qingyuan Bo Mansion, the third princess was there at that time, and she was so scared that she cried. At night, she slept until midnight and woke up again. It had been several days since she didn't eat or drink, and she cried all day long. The imperial physician came to see him and said he was not sick, but was scared. The girl also knew that there were many rules in the palace and it was not convenient to invite monks and nuns into the palace. The Empress Dowager asked the eldest princess to take out the third princess and invite monks and nuns who had attained enlightenment to see. Just now, the eldest princess told me that if the girl came back, she would go to Jinyuan to see the third princess."
Hua Jingyao nodded helplessly: "Okay, I'll go there after changing my clothes."
But I was complaining in my heart that the children in the palace had many problems. I was scared just by listening to the eldest prince telling stories.
After returning to the embroidery garden, Hua Jingyao took Ziwei and Zixuan to Jinyuan.
Zi Su is gone, Madam You mentioned Zi Wei and Zi Xuan as first-class maids. They are both sixteen or seventeen years old and calm and generous. Hua Jingyao felt that it would be appropriate to ask them to help take care of the children.
Xiuyuan and Jinyuan were walking along the way through a green bamboo road. Hua Jingyao was practicing smiling. She was the most annoying to the children, but the one who was a princess after all, was a timid and timid, so she could only coax her with a smile.
"Looking at the entire capital, I have never seen any lady with more patience and a better temper than a girl. At the last palace banquet, the third princess sprinkled a bowl of almond dew on the girl's skirt, and the girl was not angry." Zixuan said.
"What? Whole bowl of almond dew?" Hua Jingyao couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Is the third princess very naughty?"
"It's not just naughty, it's simply unruly," Zixuan quickly patted her mouth and said, "I'm wrong. The third princess is not naughty, nor is it unruly. That's innocent."
In fact, Zixuan also wanted to say that the fifth girl Hua Jinglin was naughty. Compared with the fifth girl, the third princess was a spoiled child, who was willful and willful. At a young age, she cried and made trouble and beat him up when she was not satisfied.
But Zixuan didn't dare to mention the fifth girl in front of Hua Jingyao. Madam You had already reminded them. From then on, no one can mention the three words "Fifth girl".
The third princess' biological mother is Concubine Hui, whose surname is Gong. Her ancestor was Gong Wuji, a famous general of a generation. Today, the commander of the Feiyuwei, Gong Qing, the Marquis of Yongding, was her brother, and the second brother Gong Shu was the commander of Yulinwei. The Gong family practiced martial arts regardless of gender. Concubine Gong also had martial arts skills.
People who practice martial arts have more or less tempers, so is Gong Huifei. Perhaps the emperor was used to seeing the gentle and tender intentions of women in the harem. When they met Gong Huifei like this, they felt fresh and exciting. Although Gong Huifei only had a third princess under her knees, the emperor's favor for her has lasted for a long time, and he also favored the third princess.
Before she arrived in Jinyuan, Hua Jingyao understood that she could not afford to mess with this six-year-old little princess, so she could only coax her.
After entering Jinyuan, I didn’t see the third princess, but I saw the long-browed Princess Zhaoyang.
Hua Jingyao walked over, reached her hand to the eyebrows of Princess Zhaoyang, and said with a smile: "Mom, stop frowning, you will have wrinkles."
Princess Zhaoyang pulled her over and said with a smile: "My son is the most obedient and sensible."
"Where is the third princess? Why didn't I see her? I still want to coax her." Hua Jingyao asked.
Princess Zhaoyang was amused by her, her eyebrows stretched out and her smile was as bright as a flower: "Madam Gao had a way. After massage for a while, she fell asleep. Oh, if she cried for a while, her white hair would grow out."
Madam Gao is Doctor Gao's wife, and she is good at acupuncture and massage. Princess Zhaoyang often calls her over.
"What's going on? I heard that I was scared?" Hua Jingyao sat down next to Princess Zhaoyang.
