Chapter 1097 Parting on bad terms

While Li Ye was taking Yang Yuhuan to visit Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty, several female members of the Dugu family also came to the Qi Palace. One was Taiwei's mother, Princess Xincheng, one was her aunt Dugu Hui, and the other was Dugu Xinyue's daughter.

Stepmother Wang.

The three women came here because of Taiwei. They had wanted to come for a long time. However, they were far away in Luoyang at that time and there was nothing they could do to come and have a look. Now that they have moved back to Chang'an, they discussed it and the three women came together.

In fact, they had another idea, they wanted to see what Prince Qi's palace looked like.

Dugu Xinyue personally led the three elders to visit their residence. Princess Xincheng was familiar with this place. She was surprised: "Is this the Golden Flower Fall?"

Dugu Hui and Wang asked: "Where is the Golden Flower Fall?"

"This is where the talent show girls lived in the past. Show girls would live here for several months, waiting for the emperor or queen to summon them for interviews. Xinyue, why did you choose this place to live?"

Princess Xincheng was very puzzled. This was the third-class place of Xingqing Palace in the past. Instead of choosing such a large Xingqing Palace, she actually chose this place.

Dugu Xinyue smiled and said: "Uncle, that's Lao Huangli. The prince lived here before. He rebuilt and renovated Jinhualuo. Does it look like a dormitory?"

Dugu Hui nodded, "I feel like this place doesn't look like a dormitory, but rather like a mansion, with a front yard, an atrium and a back house. It doesn't look like a palace at all. It turned out to be renovated by the prince."

Dugu Xinyue smiled slightly and said: "But you can still see a little bit of the palace in the back garden."

She brought her three elders to the back house, and first visited the yard prepared for Taiwei. It was a single courtyard covering an area of ​​two acres, divided into front and back, with a front yard and an atrium, a rockery pond, a corridor, and

There are osmanthus and bamboo bushes, which look quite delicate and quiet.

Princess Xincheng looked at it very carefully and asked again: "There must be more than twenty houses here! Do we need so many?"

Dugu Xinyue introduced with a smile: "In addition to Taiwei, there are also personal maids, wet nurses and personal female guards living here."

Princess Xincheng thought for a while and nodded: "Indeed, it would be ridiculous if the male guards were close to the body. Then King Qi's side should be male guards!"

Dugu Xinyue shook her head, "They are also female guards. We don't have eunuchs here, so we have to ask female guards to do some heavy work. They are all highly skilled in martial arts and stronger than most men."

Having said this, Dugu Xinyue clapped her hands, and two female guards in black suddenly fell from the sky, landed next to Dugu Xinyue, knelt down on one knee and saluted.

"It's okay, you go ahead!"

The two female guards jumped up the wall and disappeared in a flash. Dugu Xinyue smiled and said: "These two are my personal female guards. I can't see them, but they are paying attention to me all the time. Except for the bedroom, from now on

The same goes for Taiwei, it will be a little uncomfortable at first, but it won’t matter once you get used to it.”

The three of them nodded repeatedly, and Princess Xincheng asked again: "If I come to visit my daughter, can I live in this small courtyard?"

Dugu Xinyue said apologetically: "Outsiders are not allowed to stay in the inner house. According to the rules set by King Qi here, we have a VIP room with better conditions than here."

Princess Xincheng laughed dryly and said, "I'm just asking casually. I don't really want to live here. I miss my daughter and will let her go back to her parents' home to stay with me."

In fact, it is not that easy to go back to her parents' home, and her husband's consent is required. But Dugu Xinyue didn't want to displease her aunt anymore, so she smiled and stopped explaining.

"What is this?" Dugu Hui suddenly pointed to the overpass in front and asked.

"This is the most special place in our home, let's go up and have a look!"

Dugu Xinyue led the three of them up the stairs to the overpass. There were eaves on the overpass, which was actually a covered bridge. Walking along the overpass and past the wall of Jinhualuo, in the distance ahead was the building complex of Chenxiang Pavilion. The overpass extended to

Agarwood Pavilion.

"Is this also built by the prince? I don't think it looks like a new bridge." Wang, who had been silent, asked with a smile while holding on to the railing.

Dugu Xinyue nodded, "It was indeed built by the prince. We plan to use Chenxiang Pavilion, but we haven't thought of the use yet."

Princess Xincheng's eyes suddenly lit up and she said with a smile: "Actually, you can live in the same place! King Qi only has four wives. Qingyu can live in Jinhualuo, Yang can live in Chenxiang Pavilion, and Taiwei can live in Ying.

Zhouwangxian Pavilion, you are the princess and you live in Changqing Hall, isn’t it just right? Xinyue, don’t you think so?”

Dugu Hui also agreed: "Third sister-in-law is right. It is a pity that you only occupy a small corner of such a large Qi Palace."

Dugu Xinyue smiled and said nothing, this was not something she could decide.

After thinking about it, Dugu Xinyue still explained: "King Qi hopes that the family will live together and the children will be together. Only then will there be a family relationship, and the children will have brotherhood and sisterhood. Besides, just gold and flowers will make them happy."

It's enough, but we still think the place is too big. If we live separately, it won't be easy for us to visit each other."

Princess Xincheng curled her lips and said, "Prince Qi is a bit petty and has no princely spirit at all!"

"Mom——" Taiwei, who was accompanying her from behind, was unhappy.

"Forget it, let's not meddle in other people's business!"

Dugu Hui noticed that the princess's face was not very good, so she quickly changed the topic and said: "By the way, I just met Qingyu, why didn't Yang see her? Xinyue, please invite her to meet us."

Dugu Xinyue was indeed a little unhappy. She actually criticized her husband for being petty and lacking in courage. If it weren't for the sake of Third Uncle and Taiwei, she would have exploded on the spot.

Dugu Xinyue held back her anger and said: "Second sister has gone to Xianyang with King Qi for inspection and will not come back until the afternoon."

"Why is she accompanying me? It should be you, the princess, accompanying me on this kind of inspection tour!" Princess Xincheng said in surprise.

Dugu Xinyue glanced at her and said calmly: "You are here, aren't you? I want to accompany you, but I can't be distracted."

Princess Xincheng also realized that she had just said the wrong thing, which caused the princess to sound unhappy, but it was absolutely impossible for her to apologize. Princess Xincheng was also unhappy and said: "Okay, we have seen it almost.

Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, let’s go back!”

They originally agreed to stay for lunch, but ended up breaking up on bad terms. Dugu Xinyue didn't want to stay any longer, and sent them outside the mansion to take a car back. Princess Xincheng got on the carriage and said sullenly in front of the window: "Taiwei,

Come back with me!"

"I don't, I want to be with eldest sister." Dugu Taiwei refused.

"You kid, why don't you listen to your mother?" Princess Xincheng was immediately furious, and she couldn't let go of her face.

Dugu Xinyue patted Taiwei on the shoulder, "Go! Come back to play in a few days, and be obedient!"

Dugu Taiwei listened to his eldest sister's words and had no choice but to get into his mother's carriage. The three carriages returned home under the protection of horseback guards.

At this time, Qingyu came over and said, "Sister, didn't we agree to have lunch together?"

Dugu Xinyue said coldly: "Taiwei's mother said something unpleasant just now, which made me unhappy. It's okay if I don't eat lunch!"

"What did she say?"

"She said that the place we lived in was too small and wasted the Qi Palace. I said that my husband valued personal invitations, but she criticized him for being petty and lacking in courage."

"How could she say that!" Qingyu was also angry.

"Actually, she despises her husband from the bottom of her heart, and she doesn't approve of this marriage. In the past, when her grandmother was here, she didn't dare to be presumptuous. Now that her grandmother is gone, she starts to have no scruples."

"Sister, will Taiwei's marriage be canceled because of this?" Qingyu was really worried. She had the best relationship with Taiwei, and she dreamed that Taiwei would marry her and become sisters with her.

Dugu Xinyue took her hand and said, "Don't worry! This is a major matter decided by the Dugu family. This marriage is not her fault. We are going back."
