Sicang and Yun Zishu got up to change their clothes and wash up. The female official came in with the maids to serve them. Washing up, dressing up, and changing clothes were all done according to strict standards. No step could be ignored.
However, Si Cang looked at the gorgeous clothes held in the hands of the maid in charge and said indifferently: "Wear lighter clothes today. I'll change this one."
The maid in charge was slightly surprised and respectfully reminded: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are supposed to enter the palace today to serve tea to the Emperor and the Queen..." So they should dress more formally.
"not going."
The maid in charge of the clothes was stunned for a moment, and then she lowered her head in response. She didn't even dare to ask any more questions, and walked out holding the clothes.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince." The female official took out a piece of white cloth from the inner hall with red plum blossoms on it, "I need to send this to the palace..."
Sicang's expression suddenly turned cold: "No need."
The female officer's expression changed.
"Sicang." Yun Zishu smiled lightly, "It doesn't matter, they all act according to the rules."
Sicang frowned, "I——"
"Besides, I don't want people to criticize you in private." Yun Zishu said in a calm tone, "Someone would like to use my status as a married woman to slander us. I am willing to prove my innocence."
Sicang's voice was tight: "We don't need others to say anything about our affairs, let alone prove anything to them."
Who are those people?
"Do as the Romans do." Yun Zishu raised her head and kissed his face. "Since I have become the crown prince of Dongyou, for the time being, I still have to abide by the rules. Don't feel wronged for me. I don't think it is wronged."
If in the past, she really didn't bother to prove anything to others, whether she was married or not, or whether she was pure and pure, it had nothing to do with others, and no one had the right to interfere.
But Sicang is the Crown Prince of Dongyou, and the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty are paying attention to him. The fact that the Crown Princess has been married has given people a bad impression. If her innocence cannot be proven, those in the future will only think that the Crown Prince married
Marrying an unclean woman would harm the reputation of Prince Dongyou.
Even if she gets pregnant in the future, those people might make a fuss about the child. Yun Zishu doesn't want to cause trouble in the future because of this trivial matter.
But speaking of kids…
Yun Zishu thought about last night and couldn't help but caress her belly. After getting married, she would have children. She didn't know when her and Sicang's child would arrive.
Finally, at Yun Zishu's insistence, the female officer brought "Luo Hong" into the palace to meet the queen. However, as the prince and princess failed to enter the palace in person to offer her tea, the queen suddenly became angry: "Sure enough, he is a
The scourge of having no rules!”
The princess from a foreign race has no rules or education at all!
"Queen, please calm down." Aunt Zhao came over and comforted her in a low voice, "It should be that what happened last night made the prince dissatisfied, so he is trying to vent his anger on you."
The queen's face darkened and she was speechless for a moment: "How is Grandma Song?"
"I was imprisoned in the Criminal Department and no one could see her." Aunt Zhao lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, and then sighed softly, "No one expected that she would do such a thing, and Eunuch Wu, how could she be like this?
Confused? Isn’t this intentional to discredit the Queen?”
The queen was sitting on the phoenix couch, her face covered with exquisite makeup and frost. Although she was dissatisfied with Yun Zishu, what happened to her was really dirty water on her. No matter how dissatisfied she was, she could not be the first in the newlyweds.
God ordered man to murder his daughter-in-law.
Who does the Mother of a Nation want to punish? Why does it take so much effort?
Simply abominable!
"No one thought that Prince Yue would dare to use a brazier to poison him. Fortunately, General Huangfu found out the truth, otherwise the dirty water would have been poured on the empress, and the misunderstanding between the empress and the prince would have deepened."
"It is indeed because I didn't think well that someone took advantage of the opportunity." The queen raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, "Choose a few suitable sets of jewelry from my collection and send them to the Crown Princess."
"Yes." Aunt Zhao smiled, "There is actually no need for the Queen to be hostile to the Crown Princess from the beginning. After all, His Highness the Crown Prince has just come back and is not very close to you yet. You should be nicer to the Crown Princess now so that you can get married faster.
To bring your mother-son relationship closer to His Royal Highness."
The queen was silent.
"The prince will ascend the throne sooner or later. After he ascends the throne, there will be three palaces and six courtyards. What will a foreign crown prince mean then?" Aunt Zhao's voice was gentle, but every word was filled with calculations. "Not to mention that there are many people in the palace who want to manage people.
Means. A mere exotic princess, the Queen is still afraid that she won’t be able to deal with her?”
The queen reached out and took the tea cup aside, took a sip in silence, and nodded slowly: "You are right."
She is too impatient, but what can she do if she is not impatient? Wan'er has reached the age of leaving the court, and there is no way she can wait another year or two. Her daughter's family's youth cannot afford to be wasted.
If the prince continues to protect Yun Zishu... the queen looked coldly and thought for a moment: "If I let Wan'er be the prince's concubine first, it may be the second best choice."
Aunt Zhao was silent for a moment, then nodded: "This old slave actually thinks the same thing. Even if she is a side concubine, when the prince ascends the throne in the future, Miss Wan will at least be a noble concubine."
After a pause, "Besides, with you, the Queen, and the Situ family here, Miss Wan has the advantage anyway. What else does a foreign princess have besides the prince's favor? When the prince loses his novelty towards her in the future, it is not just letting her go.
Does the Queen have any control?"
It has to be said that Aunt Zhao has a calm temperament and understands her master's thoughts better. Her words speak to the Queen's heart without any hesitation. The current situation is like this. The Crown Prince is devoted to protecting Yun Zishu. She really shouldn't keep talking.
This time she was in trouble with Yun Zishu. The more trouble she faced, the more dissatisfied the prince would be with her.
There is no doubt that letting Wan'er be the concubine has wronged her, but the grievance is only temporary. Sooner or later, Yun Zishu will lose power, and it will not be too late to deal with her when the time comes.
The queen figured it out, and her gloomy mood finally eased a little: "The prince and the princess were too tired from their wedding yesterday. Let them have a good rest in the prince's palace. If you need anything, just ask and I will have someone send them there."
Aunt Zhao responded with a smile: "Yes. I will make arrangements now."
The full set of head and facial jewelry gifted by the Empress of Fengyi Palace was quickly delivered to the Prince's Mansion. The palace officials held each exquisite dowry in their hands and saluted the Prince and the Crown Princess with lowered eyebrows and eyes.
"The Empress is sympathetic to the hard work of the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess yesterday, and ordered the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess to stay in the palace and have a good rest, so as not to have tea today." Aunt Zhao's attitude was respectful, and there was nothing wrong with her smile. "The Queen rewards the Crown Prince.
The concubine’s head and face are all carefully collected by her, and each set is priceless. The Queen’s love for the Crown Princess is seen by all the old slaves, and she really treats her as her own daughter.”
Yun Zishu raised her eyes slightly, looked at Aunt Zhao who spoke impeccably, and smiled lightly: "Aunt Zhao is much smarter than Aunt Yan and Aunt Li."
