The next morning, Murong Yingluo faintly heard the sound of rustling. She opened her eyes slightly and saw that the sky was already bright.
Si Wushang had already put on his clothes and was waiting for her to get up. Yingluo dressed neatly and folded the quilt and put it on the couch every day to avoid being found sleeping in separate beds.
Si Wushang frowned slightly and looked at Yingluo who was taking care of everything. The two of them were husband and wife. When they arrived in Longze, there would be more people watching them. The relationship between the two should be more intimate, but Murong Yingluo always avoided him.
Her eyes seemed to be deliberately distant from him.
"We will leave for Longze in a few days. Please pack some luggage. I want to take Biyue with me. After all, she will stay with me for a longer time."
Yingluo frowned slightly. Prince Zheng took Biyue with him, fearing that he wanted to stay with her.
Yingluo raised her eyebrows and said quietly: "Whoever the prince wants to bring with him is his business. What does it have to do with me? The relationship between me and the prince is just a cooperative relationship."
Si Wushang was as careful as dust and could feel the subtle changes in Yingluo's heart. Otherwise, he would not have seen himself and Bi Yue flying kites and going to ask for guilt. He wanted to use Bi Yue to test her.
"I am afraid that the princess will be angry. This is very good. I decided to take that girl Biyue with me." He straightened his clothes with a leisurely look, opened the door and strode out, looking very happy.
Yingluo leaned against the couch, her brows covered with mist. Prince Zheng must have been eager to tell Biyue the good news. His mood in the morning was all because of his words, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
Zhen'er walked into the room and saw that the young lady looked wrong. She put down the wooden basin in her hand and said, "Miss, could it be that you had a quarrel with the prince this morning?"
"Nothing? Your Majesty will take us to Longze in a few days. You go and prepare your luggage."
Zhen'er wetted the brocade handkerchief and handed it over. She heard that the prince was taking the young lady to Longze for summer vacation. Longze was the most famous summer resort in Chenghan. The prince was taking the young lady to enjoy the mountains and rivers. It seemed that the relationship between the two was improving.
A lot.
"Miss, this is a good thing! Why does the lady look so worried?"
This time I am accompanying the Emperor Longze to escape the summer heat. My father will accompany me and my sister will also accompany the Emperor. This is a good thing, "Your Majesty will take Biyue there."
Zhen'er's expression paused, the young lady must be jealous because she cares so much about a slave. Not to mention that the young lady doesn't like Biyue, Zhen'er doesn't like it either, relying on the prince's favor to ignore the princess.
"Miss, what's the problem? As long as we leave it to Zhen'er, Zhen'er will naturally find a way to prevent her from going to Longze."
"This!" What happened to me? Why do I care about the slaves around King Zheng.
Zhen'er saw Murong Yingluo's hesitant look and said, "Miss, I am very happy to see you on weekdays. Why are you such a mother-in-law now? If that slave is pregnant with the prince's blood that day, it will be too late by then."
Zhen'er's words were exactly the same as what her mother said. Even though Bi Yue was a bit arrogant, she had always been upright and did not want to scheme against others behind their backs.
"Let him be!"
"Miss, your heart is too soft. Bi Yue is always by the prince's side every day. How can the vigorous prince not be tempted? If you want to win the prince's heart, you still have to rely on the young lady herself. As the saying goes, the person who pleases himself is the one who pleases himself.
Young ladies should also dress themselves up well, men like soft-spoken women."
Zhen'er had learned everything from her mother at a young age, but the more Yingluo listened, the more outrageous she felt. She hated her mother's ways of making her humbly please a man, which she couldn't do.
"Okay! I really shouldn't have to tell you this. I'll dress myself while you go to the kitchen to prepare some breakfast and send it over."
Zhen'er's words stirred up a pool of spring water in her heart. She looked at her appearance carefully in the bronze mirror. If she only cared about the appearance of a man, it would be fine not to let him go. What's more, she and Prince Zheng were not in love at all. She just couldn't stand the arrogant man.
’s slave.
He took out the jade talisman inlaid with gold and jade from his arms. Now that the rumors had subsided, he could return to his parents' home openly.
After breakfast, Murong Yingluo simply dressed up, took the jade talisman and ordered the housekeeper to prepare a sedan, and took Zhen'er and Amai out of the house.
When the housekeeper saw the princess leaving, he hurriedly rushed to the study to report to Prince Zheng that everything about Murong Yingluo leaving the palace was within his expectations.
"From now on, if the princess leaves the palace, there is no need to stop her."
The last time I returned to the General's Mansion was on the day of Guining. I was punished by my father for yesterday's birthday party for King Zheng. Although I met my father in the palace, I didn't even say a word. Even if I met, I would treat him as a monarch and a minister.
Etiquette, this is the sorrow of marrying into the royal family.
At this time, Murong Xuan had not returned to the palace before going to court, and Murong Yingluo suddenly returned to the general's palace. The palace was very quiet, and Mrs. Yang discussed matters in the palace with Butler Mai.
The butler hurriedly greeted her and said, "Old slave, I have seen Princess Zheng!"
"The housekeeper will be invited soon. Amai will also go back home with him. It's a great time for you and your son to get together."
"Thank you! Princess!"
When Mrs. Yang saw Yingluo returning home, her face was very calm, which Yingluo could not have expected. This was not at all like her mother's temperament.
"The daughter has met her mother!"
"Yesterday your father came back and said that King Zheng has treated you very well and that you will be able to return soon. As expected, your father guessed right."
Since her father knew that she was returning home, Xiang must also be able to guess the purpose of her return home. Facing her mother's teachings, Yingluo neither catered nor refuted.
When Murong Xuan returned home and heard that his daughter had returned home, he did not go to the study and went directly to the west wing where Yang was. Yang knew the world and withdrew, leaving only father and daughter in the room.
Yingluo hurriedly knelt down and said, "Father, my daughter is unfilial and has caused the Murong family to lose face."
There was no expression on Murong Xuan's stern face, "As long as you know you are wrong, don't mention this matter again. The emperor once asked you whether you were looking for those two things in Prince Zheng's residence recently."
Murong Yingluo did not go looking for those two things, but Amai investigated them privately and found nothing unusual.
"Father, my daughter has found nothing unusual."
Murong Xuan narrowed his eyes. Whether those two things were hidden in Prince Zheng's palace or kept in the hands of others, they were a threat. His daughter had only been in the palace for a short time, so it was understandable that she could not find them.
"Now that you are in Qingfeng Garden, as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest. Maybe King Zheng keeps those two things by his side."
"Yes! My daughter will pay attention to explore."
Murong Yingluo had two things in her mind that she wanted to tell her father, "Father, when my daughter came, she saw Butler Mai. Prince Zheng said that Butler Mai was very suspicious."
"Fusheng! He has been with me for more than twenty years, and his character is still trustworthy."
Yingluo frowned. Could it be that Prince Zheng was trying to create a rift? "No matter what, father still needs to be careful."
There was another thing that puzzled me: "Father, in a few days, King Zheng will accompany Emperor Longze to escape the summer heat. An envoy from the ancient Wu Kingdom is coming to visit soon. It is against common sense for the Emperor to travel at this time."
"This is not surprising. The emperor has a heart disease and should not be tired. He should go to Longze to recuperate. He is not worried about King Zheng, so he brought King Zheng with him."
