Chapter 1854 The eldest prince is just doing it for the princess
The eldest prince looked indifferent and majestic.
He glanced at Ting Tong who was kneeling on the ground.
He asked grandma: "What does the handkerchief she embroidered look like? Show it to me."
Mammy was stunned for a moment and said with a troubled face: "This... Your Highness, her red face may stain your eyes."
The eldest prince scolded sternly: "Go and get it!"
Grandma was so frightened that she trembled: "Old slave, go now!"
She turned and ran back to the courtyard. After a while, she came over holding three or four embroidered handkerchiefs.
"Your Highness, please take a look."
Gu Zixiao took it and looked at it with lowered eyes.
The Fourteenth Prince Gu Zibei also calmly focused his eyes on the veil.
These handkerchiefs come in different colors, but perhaps to highlight the meaning of wedding congratulations, there is a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water at the corner of each handkerchief.
The eldest prince touched the mandarin ducks with his fingertips.
He frowned: "Isn't this embroidered very well? Why do you say it looks like a wild duck?"
Mammy knelt on the ground and replied: "Mandarin ducks are all about clasping each other's necks. Your Majesty, you see, the mandarin ducks embroidered by this Lady Ruan are all separated and wandering in the water one behind the other."
"Originally, it was just for a good name to bless and love each other. But after the couple separated, will they still be called Yuanyang?
This is taboo, Your Highness!"
"When the time comes to deliver it to Her Royal Highness, Her Royal Highness may also be unhappy."
The eldest prince pursed his lips, his eyes were dark and his expression was cold.
"Nonsense!"
He scolded in a low voice.
"My sister has always been kind to others and would never criticize the palace people harshly for such trivial matters."
"You are such a naughty slave. You use Nuoer's name to dominate and humiliate the maid below, and you dare to make excuses."
After saying that, the eldest prince tilted his head and sternly ordered the guards outside: "Come here, drag this unruly old woman down and punish her with a cane."
Grandma was shocked and quickly begged for mercy: "Your Highness, I know I was wrong and I don't dare to do it anymore. Your Highness, please spare my life!"
She screamed and was dragged away.
The Fourteenth Prince looked back at the nanny who was walking away, and pursed his thin lips calmly.
His eyes returned to Tingtong who was kneeling over there.
The eldest prince, Gu Zixiao, walked up to Ting Tong wearing black boots.
"That mama made the mistake of bullying others in the name of the princess, so she can't escape the punishment."
"And you—" He paused, bent down, and placed the veil on the ground in front of Tingtong.
The eldest prince's voice was cold and majestic: "What she said is right. The meaning of a couple crossing their necks is better. Since you made a mistake in your embroidery work, just kneel here for half an hour."
Tingtong was neither humble nor arrogant, and kowtowed deeply: "Thank you, Your Highness."
She knew very well that the eldest prince punished the old nanny not for her.
It was because the old nanny used Gu Nuoer's reputation to bully others.
Gu Zixiao turned around and said to Gu Zibei: "Fourteenth brother, let's go."
The Fourteenth Prince paused slightly and nodded: "Okay."
Before he left, he glanced sideways at Ting Tong, who was kneeling there.
Leave the showroom.
The eldest prince was much kinder to his younger brother: "My father dotes on my sister, and there are often people in the palace who do evil things in the name of the princess. If my fourteenth brother sees her in the future, he should also stop her."
The Fourteenth Prince nodded repeatedly: "I understand in my heart, don't worry, brother."
The eldest prince had a very good impression of this fourteenth brother.
I just felt that he was humble and polite, and even though he had been wandering outside for so long, he didn't have any resentment at all.
Brothers getting along harmoniously is what the father wants to see most.
Returning to the palace complex where the princes lived, the fourteenth prince said goodbye to the eldest prince and returned to his own palace.
Gu Zibei was reading by the window, but suddenly he felt a shadow moving towards him. Not long after, a few raindrops blew in and wetted the pages of his book.
