When they arrived at Zhaohe Hall, Wang Xiu couldn't stop giggling.
The eldest princess asked Lu Yunhong: "Can't you take care of her?"
Lu Yunhong knew what she was laughing at, so he said bluntly: "His Highness is responsible for all this, and His Highness should take charge of it."
The eldest princess: "..."
After all, she is an outsider.
…
In the Qinzheng Hall, Emperor Shunyuan came over and felt that today was extremely disappointing.
Most importantly, it hurt my daughter's heart.
Just as he sighed, thinking that his daughter was probably out of the palace by now, he said to Li Defu: "Go and open my private treasury and take a look. If there is anything that catches your eyes, bring it over."
"I will make a decision later, and you will send them to the eldest princess's palace. By the way, I will pick some more and send them to the prince's palace."
"Today I caused the eldest princess to lose her face, and I have to get it back for her."
After Li Defu left Ziyun Palace, he sent the young eunuch to follow the eldest princess. Now that he had gained the trust, he was about to say something.
After hearing what the emperor said, he quickly said: "The eldest princess hasn't left the palace yet. She took Lu Zhuangyuan and his wife to the small garden. She said she wanted to have barbecue there and leave the palace in the evening."
Emperor Shunyuan was stunned for a moment, a glint of joy flashed in his eyes, and all his sadness disappeared.
"Fengyang didn't leave the palace?"
Li Defu said with a smile: "I didn't come out. Maybe it was Madam Wang who persuaded me to stop. We have already arrived at the Showa Palace."
Emperor Shunyuan said happily: "The Zhaohe Palace is great, but that place is so remote that no one can get in."
"Finally, someone can control Fengyang's temper. I was worried just now that she would be so angry when she left the palace that she smashed the palace door. Fortunately, fortunately!"
Li Defu finally couldn't help it and smiled.
Emperor Shunyuan immediately scolded him: "Why are you laughing? You old man, if you don't think of a way for me, you can't let me just sit here and just listen to them eating and drinking happily, right?"
Li Defu immediately said: "As for the female relatives, please ask Concubine Shu to take care of you. Isn't it easy for the Emperor to go to the Showa Hall?"
"Wang Man and Ji Yunwei have also entered the palace today. The emperor summoned them to come and they will accompany them."
"If the eldest princess gets angry again and sees them passing by, she must take into account the face of Lu Zhuangyuan and his wife. Naturally, there won't be any trouble."
When Emperor Shunyuan heard this, his eyes lit up immediately.
"Quickly, wait for me to change my clothes. Change... change... change into the navy blue Zen suit and the square scarf. I'm going to go have tea."
Half an hour later, the emperor met the prince in the woods outside Zhaohe Palace.
Emperor Shunyuan looked left and right, but Wang Man and Ji Yunwei were nowhere to be seen, so he had to say in frustration: "The prince is here too?"
The prince said: "I heard that my father is coming to Zhaohe Palace, so I came here to accompany you."
At the end, he did not forget to explain: "The two people my father is looking for, I have already asked them to leave the palace first."
Emperor Shunyuan: "..."
It’s over, we can’t eat the barbecue anymore.
He'd better go back.
Emperor Shunyuan turned around silently, and when he returned to Qinzheng Hall, he was already filled with cold wind.
The resentment is resentment, the grievance is grievance, but I can't express a single complaint, which is really frustrating.
In the plum forest, the prince looked at Emperor Shunyuan's leaving figure and said lightly: "The palace roads around Ziyun Palace..."
Hua Zimo quickly came closer and pricked up his ears.
The next moment, the prince sneered: "Block it."
…
It was already Xu Shi when Wang Xiu and Lu Yunhong returned to the Wang family.
While Mrs. Yang was greeting her servants to take off their cloaks and give them hand stoves, she asked again: "Have you seen the prince?"
Wang Xiudao: "Of course I saw it."
Mrs. Yang smiled and said: "I heard from them that none of the ladies and ladies who came to the palace for the banquet today saw the prince. And they were all guessing that the prince was watching the palace banquet behind the scenes to see who was richer.
If a woman is dignified, she will choose whose noble daughter will be the crown princess."
Wang Xiu was stunned and looked at Lu Yunhong.
Lu Yunhong said: "The prince has been in the Bachelor's Hall before and has never been to the Imperial Garden. Although he went later, he probably didn't meet any noble ladies. I think this palace banquet seemed to be hosted by the eldest princess, but the location was in
It’s just a palace.”
Wang Man came back early and had already changed his clothes.
After listening to Lu Yunhong's words, he handed him hot tea and joked: "What does it mean to care about the prince? After all, our Wang family does not have a daughter of the right age, so we don't have to worry about this."
Lu Yunhong took it and handed it to Wang Xiu without drinking it.
The next moment, Wang Man grabbed it and said, "This is for you to drink. What are you doing for Axiu? What Axiu wants to drink is sweet soup. Mom has already prepared it. I won't drink this."
Lu Yunhong took it again and said with an apologetic smile: "It's my fault, I'll punish myself with a drink."
After that, I finished my drink in a decent manner.
Wang Man then said: "The prince suddenly asked us to leave the palace first. I guess something else happened in the palace. You two came back so late. Don't let you run into it, right?"
After the words fell, the whole family fell silent and looked at Lu Yunhong and Wang Xiu.
Wang Xiu hugged the stove, sat next to Mrs. Yang and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just that the concubine Hui suddenly came to Ziyun Palace and almost had a miscarriage."
"ah??"
Mrs. Yang was shocked, and immediately held her daughter's hand and said, "What's going on? It has nothing to do with you, right?"
"There is no news at all outside the palace. Everyone is talking about the prince's marriage."
Seeing that his mother-in-law was worried, Lu Yunhong quickly explained: "If you don't want to spread the news in the palace, the outside world will naturally not know."
"This matter has nothing to do with me and Axiu. The concubine Hui Gui found her herself. She said she felt unwell before entering the Ziyun Palace. After entering the palace, the envoy from the Sun Hospital came to see her again. The emperor and the eldest princess were still embarrassed because of this.
I'm angry, Axiuduo and I are innocent, we were just invited to see the snow scene, and in the end we stabilized the eldest princess for the emperor and didn't cause trouble out of the palace."
Mrs. Yang asked suspiciously: "The eldest princess was not invited, so Huigui concubine went by herself?"
Lu Yunhong and Wang Xiu nodded in unison.
Mrs. Yang immediately said cautiously: "It seems that we will have to go to less palace banquets in the future."
Lu Yunhong took the opportunity to say: "I think so too, but if we stay in Beijing for a long time, I'm afraid it's inevitable."
Mrs. Yang heard what Lu Yunhong meant and said displeasedly: "You mean, you want to take Axiu back to the Lu family?"
Lu Yunhong said warily: "How could it be? Didn't I hear that Axiu has a farm in the suburbs? It's her dowry. I want to accompany her for a walk after the 15th. I heard that after spring there, the mountains and plains are full of azaleas.
.”
When she heard that she was not going back to the Lu family, Mrs. Yang's expression softened slightly.
In fact, what she fears most is not that Lu Yunhong will take his daughter back to the Lu family, but that Lu Yunhong's daughter will return to her hometown in Wuxi. If she wants to see her daughter again, it will probably take a year and a half.
But now they are indeed attracting attention in Beijing, and it would be better to live in the suburbs.
Mrs. Yang immediately said: "Okay, I will go with you and take care of Axiu."
Lu Yunhong said quickly: "If you don't get what you ask for, then you will have to work hard for me."
Mrs. Yang said: "We are all one family, why bother? Then I will ask someone to clean up tomorrow, and we will go there after fifteen."
Seeing that Lu Yunhong had succeeded, a smile rippled in his eyes, and it looked like stars were about to pop out.
Wang Man joked: "Mom, I shouldn't have agreed. Look at Yunhong, he is so happy."
Lu Yunhong quickly explained: "Fifth brother, don't talk nonsense. I just had a stiff smile today and I can't take it back for a while."
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
Seeing Lu Yunhong's stupidity, Wang Xiu couldn't help but laugh too.
For a while, the atmosphere in the Wang family was very good, and everyone was cheerful. Even the boy who went to deliver Yu Deshui's food grinned at the corners of his mouth and smiled brightly.
