Grandma Zhu is only in her forties, with a lumpy face and laugh lines at the corners of her eyes when she smiles, making her look very friendly.
As soon as he came in, he led the people behind him to give Xie Songhua a big salute.
"The slaves have been looking forward to it day and night, and finally this day has arrived. The princess has entered the door. From now on, our palace will have a mistress, and our prince can be considered to have a serious family."
These words were said so kindly and deeply that Xie Songhua could only respond with a dry smile, and then praised him in a routine manner, "In the future, I will rely more on my grandma and a few girls to help take care of this yard."
Aunt Zhu looked at the young woman above her, always with a soothing smile on her face, and felt mostly relieved. When she heard Xie Songhua say this, she felt more and more that the princess she was thinking of was indeed the right one.
"The princess doesn't know. The prince didn't live in this main courtyard before. The prince always lived in the front yard. That is, after the imperial edict granting marriage came down, Butler Huo arranged for us to come here. The same goes for this main courtyard.
It was just sorted out at that time.
It can be said that everything in this main courtyard was made by the hands and feet of the slaves. If the princess wants to know anything, just ask the slaves."
"That's fine," Xie Songhua nodded lightly and said with a smile, "I'm just worried that I don't have anyone to ask questions! I just came here and I don't know the rules in the palace. There are many things going on today and I have to go to the pavilion tomorrow.
Please return to your home for peace and wait for the day after tomorrow! I’ll help you summon the people in the main courtyard the day after tomorrow, and I’ll come and recognize your face.”
Then she asked about the maids she had brought over, and asked Aunt Lan to send Feng Hong down.
Mammy Zhu and others thanked her profusely and then exited the main room.
"There are two taels of silver!" A maid in a purple coat opened the red seal, took a look, and said with a smile, "This new princess is not stingy."
"It's only two taels of silver to bribe you?" Another maid in a scarlet coat looked a little scornful, "We're celebrating the New Year, and the government rewards us with more than this amount of silver, so what do you think?"
Aunt Zhu glanced at her and her face turned gloomy, "Nowadays it's no different than before! In the past, we were the only ones in this yard, and if you spoke more freely, I wouldn't care about you.
But now that the princess has passed away, if you continue to be as undisciplined as before, and offend the princess and get kicked out, I won't be able to save you."
The maid in the scarlet coat frowned and said: "Where does she have the qualifications to chase us away? We are the prince's people! She is just a girl from the countryside! Now she is just plated with gold!"
"Qiyue!" Nanny Zhu stopped immediately and turned to look at the maid, "If you have such thoughts, I advise you to go find Butler Huo now, or transfer to another place, or you can just
Leaving the palace.
Out of consideration for your brother, Butler Huo will probably give you some settlement money, so you might as well go out and live your own life."
Aunt Zhu was always kind and cheerful, and rarely got angry. Now her face was so dark, which frightened several maids.
The maid in a purple coat said quickly: "Mom, don't be angry. Qiyue is just a mouthful. We are all used to being casual. This princess is new here, so she is not used to it. I will have a good chat with her later."
Let’s talk, we have been following grandma for so many years, how can we give up?!”
After hearing what she said, Grandma Zhu's face improved a little, so she asked her to have a chat with Qi Yue, and then went to find Butler Huo.
"Morning Star, do you think...the prince is really..."
After Aunt Zhu left, Qiyue couldn't bear it anymore when facing her best sister, but she couldn't say the words no matter what.
Chenxing quickly pulled her aside. Seeing that there was no one around, he dared to speak, but still lowered his voice, "I know what you are thinking, but listen to me and stop this thought as soon as possible. That is not what you can do."
Xiao Xiang."
"I know!" Qi Yue blushed, but then said, "I have never thought about that. When I wanted to be transferred to the main courtyard with you, I just wanted to see the prince a few more times.
Your Majesty is the moon in the sky, I just need to watch it from a distance, but... I didn't expect that Your Majesty would marry such a princess. Why? She might as well be the princess who always comes to our palace!
At least she is a legitimate relative of the emperor, and she is really beautiful. Standing next to the prince will not humiliate the prince, but this..."
"What's wrong with this?" Chenxing's expression became solemn, "You are deceived by lard! Not to mention that the princess is a legitimate daughter of the old manor, and she is also the princess of the county personally made by the Holy Emperor! How can she not be worthy of it?
Prince?
The most important thing is that this is the princess recognized by the prince, who came to marry her in person. To put it bluntly, it is not your turn to take care of the prince's and princess's affairs!"
"But!" Qi Yue suddenly became anxious when she heard this, "If others don't know, how can we not know? The prince doesn't like him at all. He was forced by the Holy One. The prince should have someone he loves in his heart.
, the woman who really wants to marry will have someone who can match him and grow old with him! But now, because of the Holy Spirit’s wishes, he has given up this seat. I... I really feel bad for the prince.
.”
"What is in your mind?!" Chenxing was horrified by her words, "I really can't communicate with you! You said it as if you knew the prince very well.
Let me ask you, with the prince’s means and character, if he doesn’t want to marry the princess, do you think the Holy One can force him? When the prince wanted to leave the palace and build a mansion, the Holy One didn’t allow it. He clearly didn’t allow it. But what happened later? The prince went to the border.
Within three months, the Ministry of Industry had designated a location."
These words made Qi Yue a little confused, "You are..."
Chenxing sighed, "Use your brain. Even if, as you said, this marriage was really forced by the Holy Emperor, think about it. From childhood to Dading, the prince personally went to the Xie Mansion!
"
Qi Yue's expression completely froze, and her eyes were filled with confusion, "But back then, everyone in the palace said..."
"You have been in the prince's palace for so many years, why are you still so naive! I won't explain anything else to you. In short, I tell you that it is a good thing that you are devoted to the prince, but don't use your brain to speculate on the prince's behavior, Zhu Ma
Whatever mama arranges for you, you should do it conscientiously, just for the good of the prince!"
Then he added: "Mother Zhu said that there may be something wrong with the four people Mrs. Huayang gave to the princess. If you don't want to serve the princess, just keep an eye on them."
After they went out, Aunt Lan talked to Xie Songhua about the things at the house.
"According to the girl's instructions, Bi Tao took the girl to kowtow to the Jiang family master and his wife yesterday, and brought them wedding noodles. The master and his wife also knew that the girl's status was such that it was not good for her to go there to salute them.
Let us go and tell them, and the old couple will be very happy."
When it comes to Jiang's father and Jiang's mother, Xie Songhua always feels depressed and uncomfortable.
The couple had worked so hard to raise a child, and they were not able to show up for anything like getting married.
Seeing her expression, Aunt Lan wanted to comfort her, but she heard Ta Xue's voice outside, "The prince is back!"
