The two of them were naturally silent along the way.
A gap stretched across the two people, separating them further and further.
Qin Rushuang thought it was nothing. She didn't think much about it at all. After letting go of Xie Xun in her heart, she suddenly discovered that there were many interesting things besides love.
Such as her friends, such as her family.
Besides love, people also have dignity.
After the two returned home, it was already Haishi.
Qin Rushuang felt a little hungry. She was busy at Dali Temple, but she didn't even eat dinner.
Qin Rushuang naturally called Qingzhi and ordered: "Let the kitchen make something good for drawing and bring it to my room."
"Wait a minute." Xie Xun stopped her, "Let the kitchen be ready and bring it to the dining room, so we can use it together."
Qin Rushuang had no choice but to nod, not wanting to refute his face, so she said to Qingzhi, "Then let the kitchen cook more food, and the prince will also join us."
After a while, four meat and vegetable dishes and two bowls of thick porridge were brought to the table.
Qin Rushuang was really hungry, so she told Xie Xun and started eating first.
Her taste has become more and more sophisticated recently. She likes the sauerkraut made by an old cook in the back kitchen. The sour the better. Every time she drinks porridge, she eats a whole small plate with it.
Xie Xun frowned, his teeth felt sore just looking at it.
There was great silence at the dinner table. Xie Xun wanted to break the silence, so he said: "...Didn't you not eat pickled food in Qu County before?"
Qin Rushuang felt a little helpless.
Isn't it normal for a pregnant person to like sour food? Besides, she was very restrained and only ate a small plate. The plate was already small, but she could finish it with just a few chopsticks.
And I don’t know what’s wrong with Xie Xun today. He seems to be talking too much.
She didn't want to talk to Xie Xun, so she pretended not to hear, lowered her head and continued to eat the food in front of her. Qingzhi served her another bowl of porridge.
Seeing that the prince could not get an answer from the princess, Qingzhi felt a little embarrassed and was afraid that he would lose face, so she quickly explained.
"Your Majesty, you don't know. It's common for pregnant women to like sour foods. Don't worry, Your Majesty, Doctor Cao has already given instructions not to let the Princess eat too much. It's not good to eat too much pickled food.
"
Xie Xun was silent. He seemed to know very little about Qin Rushuang.
He only knew that pregnant women should be taken care of with care, but he didn't know any other details.
With this thought in mind, Xie Xun finished his dinner in silence.
Qin Rushuang was about to leave when the servant suddenly ran up in a hurry.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! It's not good! Miss Qin doesn't know what's wrong! She's saying she has no life left and wants to die!"
Xie Xun frowned and immediately wanted to leave with his servants, but he just took a step and turned back.
"...I am going to have a look. You can go with me to have a look."
Normally, she wouldn't want to take a look at Qin Fang, but now she has many doubts about Qin Fang, so after thinking about it, she replied: "Then go and have a look."
When Qin Rushuang and Xie Xun arrived at the side courtyard, Qin Fang's room was already in a mess.
Cups and porcelain were shattered on the floor, and chairs were pushed over.
Qin Fanghao's face was full of tears. He was holding a broken piece of porcelain in his hand and pressing it against his neck. "Don't come over! Don't come over!"
When Qin Rushuang saw her like that, she knew that this woman was acting again.
She cherishes her life more than anyone else!
But because Xie Xun was present, she didn't say anything. She just stood aside silently, wanting to see how Xie Xun was going to deal with it.
Xie Xun looked at Qin Fanghao with disheveled temples and frowned: "If you have anything to say, tell me."
"Say it nicely? Your Majesty, how do you want me to say it nicely? I just found out today that my mother is now a servant who can be bullied by everyone in the General's Mansion!"
Qin Rushuang opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, but finally closed her mouth.
Are you seeking death just for this little thing?
Aunt Liu was divorced. If she still wanted to stay in the general's mansion, she could only become a servant.
It's impossible for Qin Fang not to know.
It’s impossible for Xie Xun not to know
Sure enough, when Xie Xun heard what she said, he said in a deep voice: "When you mother and daughter did those things, you should have thought of the consequences."
After speaking, he lowered his voice as if he was afraid of hitting Qin Fanghao too hard.
"After all, your mother has been an aunt for so many years, so it won't be difficult for her to live in the back house of the general's mansion."
Qin Fanghao cried and shook his head: "No! No, my lord, you don't understand the dirty things in the inner house! Those people have been jealous of my mother being favored by the general for a long time. Now my mother is being bullied in the house. I want to see me."
Mother, these servants are stopping me! I can’t even take care of my mother now, I might as well die!"
Qin Rushuang finally couldn't help it anymore and said: "You are in this side courtyard every day, how do you know how your mother is doing? Even if you know, why did you tell her today? What have you been doing so long ago?"
Qin Fanghao looked at Qin Rushuang with hatred.
"You have the nerve to say that! The story of my mother being bullied by the servants has already reached the ears of these little maids. They are separated by several streets and two courtyards. Even the people in our general's mansion
The servants all know this, so you can imagine the miserable life my mother has lived!"
Qin Rushuang's heart sank. The maids she found at that time were not confidants. They were just randomly selected from among the maids in the mansion. She had already told them not to gossip, but she didn't expect that Qin Fanghao would be caught.
When Qin Fanghao was talking, he was so excited that the porcelain piece in his hand slightly left his neck.
Xie Xun took advantage of this opportunity to grab a walnut on the table, and with a sudden force, he knocked the porcelain piece in Qin Fanghao's hand to the ground.
Seeing the porcelain pieces falling, Xie Xun motioned to the maids: "Hurry up and help!"
The servants reacted and hurriedly rushed forward.
It is better to say that he is holding her down, so as to prevent her from doing dangerous things again.
But Qin Fang was so excited that he was not honest when others suppressed him.
While struggling, he cried: "I want to see my mother! I want to see my mother! Your Majesty can save me for a while, but he cannot save me for the rest of my life. Only when I see my mother can I feel at ease. Otherwise, I might as well die!"
Qin Rushuang looked at the crazy Qin Fanghao and was speechless. She was really a bastard looking at mung beans. Why did Xie Xun like this?
Then she saw Xie Xun, who was frowning and unmoved, cold-hearted...
Maybe beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Didn't I once fall in love with Xie Xun like a man possessed?
Xie Xun was indeed a little irritable at the moment.
For Qin Fanghao, his feelings have changed from the initial appreciation and pity to the responsibility of becoming a father for the first time.
In fact, Qin Fang really wanted to meet Aunt Liu, which was not a big deal. Normally, Xie Xun would have agreed to it immediately.
Xie Xun was really annoyed and said: "Okay..."
But as soon as he said these words, for some reason, he suddenly thought about this matter. Should he ask Qin Rushuang for his opinion?
So the word "yes" that blurted out suddenly turned around and turned into "you can ask the princess what she means."
Qin Rushuang, who was suddenly called by name, was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said: "The prince has the final say on matters in the palace."
Xie Xun carefully observed Qin Rushuang's expression and found nothing wrong, so he said with a little caution, "You can't leave the side hospital. This is what I have agreed with my father, the emperor, and my concubine. Why don't you let Aunt Liu come over?"
"
Qin Rushuang was a little amused. Xie Xun's questioning tone made it sound like she was the owner of the palace.
In fact, Qin Rushuang also wanted to know what kind of medicine Qin Fanghao was selling in the gourd, and she did not hesitate to hurt herself, forcing Xie Xun to agree to let Aunt Liu come to the palace.
So he nodded and said: "She is pregnant with the prince's child. It's not a big deal if she wants to see her mother. Then she can go to the General's Mansion tomorrow and ask Aunt Liu to come."
After all the commotion in the side yard, Qin Rushuang felt really sleepy.
Qingzhi supported Qin Rushuang and walked slowly into the courtyard, with Xie Xun following behind silently.
But when they reached the separate intersection, Qin Rushuang found that Xie Xun followed her into the main courtyard.
"Does anything else happen, Your Majesty?"
"Tonight is fifteen."
On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, according to the rules, Xie Xun had to rest in Qin Rushuang's courtyard.
