When Xiaolian and Si Qi saw Jun Lingyun, they did not follow him with a wink, and went to settle Can'er together.
Chu Yunxi walked to Jun Lingyun with a smile, and was pulled into his lap by him and held in his arms.
"Thank you for your hard work, Princess."
Chu Yunxi smiled even brighter.
"His Royal Highness, thank you for your hard work."
Jun Lingyun watched her frown and smile. The more he watched, the more itchy his heart became. He simply stood up with Chu Yunxi in his arms and walked towards the bath.
"Madam, let's take a rest early."
Chu Yunxi was now able to fully understand the meaning of rest in Jun Lingyun's words, and her ears were slightly red.
"Your Highness, are you finished with your official duties?"
Jun Lingyun lowered his head and glanced at her with a smile.
"How can official duties be as important as a wife?"
Chu Yunxi spoke righteously.
"Your Highness, this is not acceptable. I don't want to become a witch who brings disaster to the country."
Jun Lingyun raised his eyebrows.
"Xi'er will become the hero who gave birth to the eldest grandson of Yunxiao Kingdom."
Chu Yunxi fell silent. She once again lost the battle of words with Jun Lingyun.
Early the next morning, when Chu Yunxi woke up, there was no one at Jun Lingyun's seat. I don't know how early he got up to go to work. Indulgence always has to be repaid.
Chu Yunxi knew that Jun Lingyun had his own responsibilities, but she also felt sorry for his body.
Xiaolian brought the palace maid in to help Chu Yunxi get up, and looked at her teasingly.
"Princess, your breakfast is almost cold, you finally woke up."
The little palace maids looked a little envious that Aunt Xiaolian dared to be like the crown princess.
Chu Yunxi said angrily:
"What do you mean, you didn't know you would have come earlier to wake me up."
Xiaolian pretended to be frightened.
"If this slave dares to disturb your sleep, His Highness the Crown Prince is still not allowed to throw this slave out?"
Chu Yunxi felt a hint of sweetness in her heart, but she still spoke harshly.
"You girl, you know how to talk nonsense. By the way, is there any movement in Concubine Rong's palace?"
Xiaolian shook her head.
"I heard that there was a bit of commotion last night and then it became quiet."
Chu Yunxi sneered. Come to think of it, Concubine Rong didn't know that her death was coming, so she probably still wanted to take good care of her baby, imagining that the mother would be more valuable than the child in the future.
In this way, Concubine Rong will be able to live in peace in the months before she gives birth.
Chu Yunxi no longer thought about Concubine Rong. After breakfast, he called Wu You over.
"Wu You, prepare the betrothal gift and go to the General's Mansion to propose marriage. I have already discussed with my mother that He Xiang will marry from the General's Mansion."
Wu You was excited, as it was finally time to propose marriage. In fact, he had already started preparing the betrothal gift when Chu Yunxi agreed to their marriage, but he just didn't know where to take it.
He Xiang has no family. Although she came from General Chu's Mansion, Wu You cannot be self-righteous and regard General Chu's Mansion as He Xiang's natal home.
Now that the Crown Princess was willing to give He Xiang the honor, Wu You was naturally happy and immediately knelt down.
"Subordinate and He Xiang, thank the Crown Princess for your kindness."
"Get up quickly. There is gold under your knees. Don't kneel down easily. As long as it is to prepare for your marriage to He Xiang, there is no need to ask me for instructions. You can just go on your own."
Chu Yunxi gave Wu You freedom in a very polite manner.
"Yes! I am resigning."
Wu You stepped back with great gratitude.
Dangjie took the matchmaker and betrothal gift with him and went to General Chu's Mansion to propose marriage. The wedding date was set for the sixth day of September.
Although it was a bit rushed, he had a house gifted by His Highness the Crown Prince, and He Xiang had the Crown Princess to help him, so he didn't need to spend several months preparing like ordinary people.
Moreover, Mrs. Chu is about to give birth in more than two months, so it would be inappropriate to disturb Mrs. Chu's cultivation during her confinement period.
Wu You counted the time and just waited for He Xiang to prepare the wedding dress.
Butler Cao was busy entertaining guests.
This caused a crowd of people to watch curiously. Aren't all the daughters of the Chu family already married? Who are they going to marry?
After asking around, I found out that she was the maid who served the Crown Princess when she was still in the boudoir. Now, with the grace of the Crown Princess, she got rid of her slave status and is now a good citizen. The Crown Princess also allowed her to marry from General Chu's Mansion.
.
This is really like being born into a good child. For a time, many people who were living in poverty began to think about sending their daughters to General Chu's mansion to be a maid, and they might have a bright future.
.
After the first one boldly stepped forward to ask, there was a second one, and then a third one...
"Master Butler, I'm asking, do you still need a maid in the general's mansion? My little girl is quite decent-looking."
"Housekeeper, my little girl can read for a few days."
"Master Butler, the daughter of the grassroots has done a great job in embroidery."...
Butler Cao had to offer words of comfort.
"Thank you all for your love. We are not short of servants in the General's Mansion now. When we are short of servants, we will definitely put up a notice to give everyone a chance. Let's go first, let's go."
These people felt a little regretful and could only look at the boxes of betrothal gifts brought by Wu You with envy.
How is this the treatment of a maid? I'm afraid Xiaojiabiyu is not as good as that.
Xiao Feifei, who was quietly doing embroidery work in General Chu's mansion, also saw all these things and felt a little sad.
Her father died at the hands of Jun Lingyun and Chu Yunxi. She should hate it, but her father had to blame himself.
Chu Yunxi saved her life and gave her a place to live. She should be grateful, but there happened to be a hatred between them for killing their father.
Chu Yunxi is indeed a kind person, and she can protect her maids in this way. If they were not born into hostile families, and if she could wake up earlier, that would be great.
It's a pity that all this excitement has nothing to do with her in the future.
When Chu Yunxi in the palace heard that Wu You had just left her, she went straight to the general's mansion and had a laugh with Xiaolian. It seemed that Wu You couldn't wait any longer and wanted to marry He Xiang back.
.
"Xiao Lian, go pick out some beautiful red brocades and send them to He Xiang, so that she can choose the one she likes for her wedding dress."
"Yes, Crown Princess."
When Xiaolian came to the college looking for Hexiang in palace clothes and carrying red brocade, the students happened to be taking a break between classes, and they were all lying on the window sill to watch the excitement.
"That's the aunt in the palace. Why are you bringing so much red brocade?"
"You haven't heard, Miss He Xiang is going to get married soon."
"Really? Is it Brother Wu You who is with the Crown Princess?"
"Who else could it be if he wasn't him?"
"Oh, you are not as well-informed as I am. I heard that Brother Wu You has gone to General Chu's mansion to propose marriage today."
"Oh~"
There was a burst of cheering, interrupted by a cough.
"Ahem, if you don't warm up your books, what are you doing?"
The students quickly returned to their seats and saluted the teacher.
"Hello, sir!"
But with that look in his eyes, he glanced out from time to time, and the gentleman tapped the table with his ruler.
"Everyone, please be careful! If you behave well these days, I will grant you a day off when Miss Hexiang gets married."
The students' eyes lit up, and they all cheered up as they thought that they might be able to have fun in the bridal chamber.
"Thank you sir!"
The teacher gave a rare smile and started teaching.
He Xiang didn't know that the group of students had already made a clear plan for the bridal chamber. Her face was reflected pink and tender by the red brocade in front of her.
