Yun Zishu tilted her head slightly, her eyes fell on his face, and the corner of her mouth raised: "His Royal Highness is wise, martial, and wise. I admire you endlessly."
Si Cang was throbbing and couldn't help but hold her hand tightly: "Your Highness, thank you."
"Going for a walk in the garden?"
"Um."
In the evening, the sun sets just right.
The two were walking hand in hand on the garden path, one tall and one short, their figures stretched out long, quiet and warm, giving them a feeling of peace and quiet in the years.
March passed quickly, and April ushered in in a blink of an eye.
The four of them, Yun Baozhu, have been living in the palace for more than ten days. Although the time has not been long, probably because too many things have happened during this period, just ten days feel like a long few months have passed.
Since Situ Xuan agreed to her request, Situ Wan stayed in the palace for two consecutive days without leaving the house. After gathering her mood, she entered the palace early on the second day of April to pay her respects to the queen.
"When does aunt plan to get them married?"
The queen half-lyed on the phoenix couch lazily, frowning slightly, as if she had almost forgotten this incident: "Who should I marry off?"
Situ Wan replied: "The four princesses of Dayongna."
oh.
They.
She didn't pay much attention to a few unimportant people. For the past few days, all her time and energy had been occupied by the prince and princess, and she had almost no extra thought to think about other people. She didn't even think about the morning and evening routines of the concubines in the harem.
no.
After taking a sip of tea, the queen looked unhappy and said: "Let them get married this month, but it will have to wait until the second half of the month."
"The second half of the month?"
"Yes." A look of confusion appeared on the queen's face, "The ninth day of April is Yun Zishu's birthday. The prince went to the palace today to discuss the matter with the emperor and plans to hold a birthday banquet for him in the prince's palace."
Situ Wan's expression was slightly dull, and the strong jealousy almost swallowed up her reason. She clutched the handkerchief for a while, and then said: "So, the royal family is going to be busy again?"
Once for the prince's marriage and once for the princess's birthday.
It was lively twice in a month, but it had nothing to do with her.
Situ Wan closed her eyes and suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart, trying to convince herself that Yun Zishu would not live long, and as soon as she disappeared, all the humiliation she had suffered these days would disappear in an instant.
Everything returned to calm, and she was still the dazzling eldest daughter of the Situ family.
And Yun Zishu will only become a ghost in a foreign country.
"Let it be lively if it's lively." The queen's tone was a little gloomy, with a hint of unwillingness to do what she could. "I asked them to hold it in the palace, but he insisted on holding a birthday banquet in the prince's palace... The prince is no longer in his eyes.
I am no longer a mother, but she is always confronting me, and she will only accept it if she is angry to death."
When birthday banquets are held in the palace, she, the master and elder of the harem, can handle them for them. When ladies from aristocratic families enter the palace, they must first pay homage to her, the queen, and then meet the crown princess.
Even if it is a banquet specially held for the Crown Princess, the Queen is still one of the protagonists. She can even gain a reputation for being kind to her daughter-in-law and make up for the bad impression she has left on people these days.
However, the birthday banquet was held in the Prince's Mansion, so who would make a special trip to the palace to meet the Queen?
Should she, the mother of a country, go to the Crown Prince's Mansion? If she goes, it will be like degrading her status. If she doesn't go, the wives and ladies of the major families will become more and more certain that the mother-son relationship between the Queen and the Crown Prince has become irreversible.
The more the queen thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became. She was upset and regretted countless times for getting the prince back.
Thinking of the respectful attitudes of the princes Dongling Yue, Dongling Zhang and Dongling Sheng towards her, which one is not better than the prince?
She can adopt anyone at will, and she won't be so angry every time that her heart aches.
"On the ninth day of April..." Situ Wan lowered his eyes to hide the thoughts in his eyes, "Auntie, let the princesses of Dayong also go to the Prince's Mansion to attend the banquet. They are all girls of Dayong, and they came to Dongyou together.
They depend on each other for life. The Crown Princess has not seen them for so long, and she misses them very much."
The Queen glanced at her with a mocking tone: "Yun Zishu is a selfish person. The most important thing for her right now is to secure her position as Crown Princess. How can she have the time to miss other people?"
?”
Situ Wan smiled understandingly: "It's her business whether she wants to do it or not, and it's her aunt's business what she does. Isn't it enough for outsiders to see the grace shown by my aunt?"
The queen was silent for a moment and nodded slowly: "What you said makes sense."
Situ Wan pursed her lips.
"Yun Zishu held a flower-viewing banquet at the Prince's Mansion earlier. Did you also go?"
Situ Wan nodded, and his expression suddenly became more forbearing: "Father may be worried that the prince will settle accounts after the fall, so he asked me to make amends to Yun Zishu."
"What's the apology?"
"Shuang'er insulted her in public." Situ Wan narrowed his eyes, "Although I am reluctant, I can only follow my father's words. Who makes the status of the Crown Princess more noble?"
"Your father is afraid of trouble!" The queen couldn't help but hate that iron is not as good as steel. "It's so embarrassing for a foreign princess to scare him like this?"
Situ Wan said nothing.
"Forget it." The queen sighed weakly, "I have been tired and annoyed recently. I no longer want to deal with the prince's affairs, so just let him go."
Situ Wan's expression was dark, and his tone was humble and calm: "Auntie, I want to meet Yun Baozhu."
"Yun Baozhu?" The queen frowned, "Why are you meeting her?"
"She is about to become my sister-in-law, so it is appropriate for me to get to know her well in advance." Situ Wan said, "And I want to learn more about Yun Zishu from her mouth."
The queen was silent for a moment, then slowly sat up: "Wan'er, I failed to let you marry the prince smoothly because of my miscalculation, but now that the matter has come to this, you still -"
"Don't worry, aunt, I won't think too much about anything else." Situ Wan raised his lips and smiled, without revealing any strange color on his face, "The general's palace is very good, almost as noble as one person and more than ten thousand people."
, even the princes of the clan are not as prominent as the palace of the general, I should be content."
The queen felt guilty: "It's good if you think like this. I'll ask someone to call Yun Baozhu over. You can talk to her."
"Thank you Auntie." Situ Wan stood up, "I don't want to disturb Auntie's rest, just let Auntie Zhao take me there."
The queen waved her hand: "Mother Zhao, send someone to call Yun Baozhu over and accompany Wan'er for a walk in the back garden."
"yes."
Situ Wan bowed again and left.
When he walked out of Fengyi Palace, Situ Wan looked up at the blue sky, his eyes were narrow and the corners of his mouth raised an unobservable gloomy arc.
The ninth day of April is a suitable day to get started.
On the birthday of the Crown Princess, there are many guests and the palace is in chaos. As long as Yun Zishu is alone for a moment, she will definitely die!
