Cheng Yuzhu looked up and saw Princess Qinghe walking in.
Her Royal Highness the Princess is very easy-going. As long as she does not go back to the Princess's mansion, she often comes to chat with her sister-in-law Cheng Yuzhu.
Seeing that Cheng Chumo was also in the house, Princess Qinghe asked in surprise: "When did Brother Cheng come back? Didn't my father-in-law say that you won't return to Chang'an until the end of the year?"
"We are all a family. Your Highness, Princess, you are so polite. Today my brother recognized his kin, so he rushed back early. Your Highness, please take a seat." Cheng Chumo quickly stood up and offered his seat.
Although this princess sister-in-law does not act like a princess, Cheng Chumo cannot be ignorant of good and evil.
Princess Qinghe was stunned for a moment, then she immediately realized what she was doing.
Today Yang Fan recognized Empress Xiao as his godmother, and the sound of firecrackers was deafening all day long. It can be said that no one in the entire Chang'an city knew about it.
It's not surprising that my husband's brother has made good friends with Marquis Zhongyi and rushed back to congratulate him.
What's more, her father-in-law Cheng Yaojin also went to the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion to express his congratulations, and she knew that.
So she sat on the seat under the guidance of Cheng Yuzhu. Princess Qinghe looked at the insoles placed by Cheng Yuzhu and said with a smile: "Oh, our girl Zhu'er is really virtuous. She hasn't gotten married yet, so she gave it to her."
Has Marquis Zhongyi embroidered the insoles?"
Cheng Yuzhu's pretty face once again had two red clouds, and she said coquettishly: "What are you talking about, sister-in-law? Who said it was embroidered for him?"
Princess Qinghe married Cheng Chuliang just a few months ago. She was two years older than Cheng Yuzhu and was only seventeen years old now.
Although she is a princess, she is very easy-going and maintains a lively temperament despite her innocence. She always gets along very well with her sister-in-law Cheng Yuzhu.
Hearing this, he pretended to be surprised and said: "Oh my god, does this girl have other crushes? Then why do I hear someone talking in sleep and calling him the name of Marquis Zhongyi?"
A girl who has not yet left the palace is no match for a woman, not to mention that Princess Qinghe deliberately teased her and spoke more casually. Cheng Yuzhu was an opponent, and her pretty face turned red with embarrassment.
However, as soon as Princess Qinghe sat down, she looked at the tiger skin on the chair with some surprise. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she touched it with her hand. It was soft and warm.
Looking at the tiger skin cushions with bright patterns and colors, Princess Qinghe praised: "This tiger skin blanket is really nice, warm and soft, with beautiful patterns. Where did I get it from?"
"This..." Cheng Yuzhu hesitated for a long time, feeling a little embarrassed. After all, he just said that he had nothing to do with Marquis Zhongyi.
When Princess Qinghe saw this, she immediately thought that Princess Gaoyang also had a tiger skin blanket, which was similar to this one. Could it be...
She was filled with envy all of a sudden. Although she was a princess, she had never used such a luxurious thing.
And even before Cheng Yuzhu left the court, someone gave her such a good gift. What girl doesn't have vanity?
After all, it is the nature of a girl to always want to compare. She wants what others have.
Seeing that Princess Qinghe might have guessed it, Cheng Yuzhu smiled shyly, feeling warm in her heart.
Indeed, Brother Yang was really kind to her. Not only did he give her a tiger skin blanket, but he also gave her all kinds of delicious and useful things.
The toy big white bear that was first given to her stayed with her through many dark and sleepless nights.
Apart from her father and brother, she has never felt such concern from another man.
Seeing his sister's expression, Cheng Chumo felt as if his beloved thing had been robbed, and said unconvinced: "What's the big deal about this tiger skin? I brought back several high-quality fox skins this time to make clothes."
, it must be much better than this tiger skin..."
"Brother, how can you say that tiger skin is not good? Zhuer ignored you!" Cheng Yuzhu pouted and said displeasedly.
In her opinion, Yang Fan was not only able to speak well in literature, but also to expand territories in martial arts. He was simply a genius in both civil and military affairs.
He also gave her a furry white bear, a tiger skin blanket and various supplies, which made many ladies who met her envious.
Now that Cheng Chumo is destroying the things Yang Fan sent, Cheng Yuzhu's thoughts are unconsciously biased towards Yang Fan, an 'outsider'.
Cheng Chumo was depressed!
I didn't expect that my sister, who had never refuted him, would actually get emotional over a tiger skin. This was impossible before.
She couldn't help but glance at Cheng Yuzhu and frowned slightly. Whenever she talked about Yang Fan, her sister's expression would be a little strange. Could it be...
Wasn't what Princess Qinghe said just now a joke?
Didn't Yang Fan say that he had a pure friendship with his sister? This bitch was obviously lying!
But he also knew that his sister would eventually get married. If she could really become the wife of brother Yang Fan, Cheng Chumo would agree with both hands.
It's a pity that Yang Fan is about to marry Princess Gaoyang. Even if his sister gets married, she can only be a concubine. What should she do?
Let the daughter of a dignified prince be married off as a concubine. With my father's temper, would it be weird if he didn't fall out?
Cheng Chumo had a headache!
What's more, Yang Fan is surrounded by beautiful women.
Even though Cheng Chumo was very confident in his sister's appearance, he did not dare to say that his sister could surpass the women in the Zhongyi Hou family.
It seems that the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain, and I have to make my sister give up.
Suddenly, a bold idea came to Cheng Chumo, so he said: "Ahem, it's my brother's fault. Since Brother Yishan gave his sister such a valuable tiger skin, and today he recognizes his relatives, wouldn't it be rude for my sister not to congratulate him?"
In his opinion, as long as his sister sees that there are several beauties around Yang Fan, she will definitely not be attracted to the flame.
And tonight, Princess Gaoyang and Wu Meiniang are all in the house, so it is the best time.
Although Cheng Yuzhu wanted to go, she still struggled a little and said in embarrassment: "It's already dark now, maybe my parents won't allow it?"
Cheng Chumo patted his chest and assured, "It doesn't matter, I will arrange everything."
Although Cheng Chu meditated beautifully, he did not understand a woman's thoughts after all.
Once the love is deep, who cares how many women the other party has?
Doing this is just a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.
…
When Cheng Chumo brought his sister to the Zhongyi Hou Mansion, the maids and servants of the Hou Mansion were cleaning up the remnants of today's banquet.
As soon as he stepped through the door, Cheng Chumo shouted carelessly: "Where is your young master? Hurry up and ask him to come out to pick up the guests."
"Brother Yishan, I brought my sister to see you!"
The maids blushed, while the servants were speechless.
Picking up guests?
Young Master, what do you say? Feelings, our young master has become the concubine in that brothel?
However, everyone knows that this young master has a pretty good relationship with his own master.
What's more, there was a pretty girl following behind him, so he didn't dare to neglect her.
Someone then led the two of them into the lobby, and the maid went to inform them.
Cheng Yuzhu blushed because of Cheng Chumo's voice.
A girl with hair-length hair came to visit her at night, and she made such a big fuss that she was told how to meet anyone, so she could only secretly glare at this unreliable elder brother.
However, seeing that the servant who reported the news was not going to the back house, but to the side courtyard, Cheng Yuzhu asked, "What is your young master doing?"
When the servant heard this, his mouth twitched, but he was speechless. After all, the young master was accompanying his distinguished guest.
Although he didn't know the identities of those people, none of his servants dared to gossip without Yang Fan's permission.
Even though this beautiful girl may be on good terms with her own prince, rules are rules!
However, Cheng Chumo's voice was really powerful, and even the entire Hou Mansion could hear it clearly.
Empress Xiao, who was teaching her daughter in the house, couldn't help but feel a little confused.
She has a deep understanding of Cheng Yaojin. Although she looks careless, she has a delicate heart under her tough appearance.
At this time, asking her son to bring her daughter for a visit seemed to her to be an attempt to promote her daughter.
So he said to Xiao Shiyun: "Yun'er, your husband is a sweet potato. If you don't cook the rice as soon as possible, you will really become the youngest in the future!"
"Then what should I do? It's impossible for my daughter to come to the door by herself. If she is rejected, it will be embarrassing..." Xiao Shiyun was very shy.
It has been more than a year since she came to the Hou Mansion, but Xiao Shiyun is really a little anxious when Yang Fan refuses to eat the meat that reaches her mouth!
Faced with the threat of other women, which woman would want to be inferior to other women?
Empress Xiao smiled slightly: "You go and greet the guests first, my mother will have her own arrangements later..."
Hearing this, Xiao Shiyun did not ask any more questions.
In her opinion, it was impossible for her mother to harm her, not to mention that she herself had already fallen in love with Yang Fan.
It's just that Xiao Shiyun didn't see it. After she left, Empress Xiao whispered sternly: "Yun'er, I hope you don't blame the empress for being cruel. The Li family took away my country in the Sui Dynasty. Today, I will let my godson collect some interest first."
At this time, Empress Xiao's eyes flashed with cold light, and her face was extremely gloomy, without her usual kind, graceful and noble look.
…
Cheng Yuzhu was taken into the backyard by Princess Gaoyang, Wu Meiniang, and Xiao Shiyun, but Yang Fan did not show up.
After all, he was discussing matters with Changsun Wugou and the others.
It didn't matter to Cheng Chumo that he didn't see Yang Fan. Anyway, his goal had been achieved, which was to make his sister give up.
But when he saw his younger sister Cheng Yuzhu and Wu Meiniang chatting and laughing with each other, Cheng Chumo really regretted it!
Don’t let the sheep fall into the tiger’s mouth!
Otherwise, he would really be beaten to death by his father, Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Chumo could only return home with a depressed mood. The sharp cold wind made him shiver, as if foreshadowing what he would encounter in the future.
…
This side of the side courtyard of the Hou Mansion!
Seeing that everyone was at a loss what to do, Sun Simiao stood up and said, "Madam, Lord Marquis, I am a Taoist, and it is my duty to practice medicine and treat diseases."
"I don't want to get involved in official affairs. If you can really advise His Majesty, I will do my best to diagnose and treat you. Now I will step aside first!"
Yang Fan didn't expect Sun Simiao to do this, but he secretly admired it in his heart.
Ginger is really spicy!
No wonder Sun Simiao was able to survive six generations of emperors without falling. This kind of foresight is not something ordinary people can have.
Since ancient times, there have been countless officials with excellent medical skills. How many of them were able to die a good death?
This old man's ability to resist such a temptation is truly extraordinary. No wonder he has become a famous medical sage through the ages.
Just when Yang Fan wanted to retire, Empress Xiao led Xiao Shiyun to the side courtyard room.
Yang Fan quickly stood up and saluted: "My child has seen his mother!"
Facing the emperor and empress of the previous dynasty, the eldest grandson Wugou and Concubine Yang naturally did not dare to drag them down, and they also bowed first.
Empress Xiao smiled brightly, and quickly helped the two of them up: "No need to be polite, I am still doing my best!"
After sitting down, Empress Xiao said: "I have a baby again today. I am so happy."
"Shiyun! Pour out the wine. I, your concubine, and the others will have a few more drinks."
This made Yang Fan a little surprised. What kind of medicine does the godmother want to sell in the gourd?
If you don’t drink at the banquet, what kind of wine will you drink at this time?
The eldest grandson Wugou and Yang Fei smiled bitterly.
Originally, they were not big drinkers. They had already drank several glasses of wine during the dinner, but now they were already half tipsy. If they drank any more, they might really get drunk.
But after all, it was hard to calm Empress Xiao's mood, so she could only say: "Empress Xiao is so elegant, we should be together to death, but after all, the amount of wine is limited, let's limit it to two drinks, okay?"
Empress Xiao nodded, picked up the wine glass, and said: "This girl Shiyun is from the Xiao family. In order to cover her escape to the Turks, her whole family was exiled."
"I am ashamed of her, so let Shiyun drink the first glass of wine on my behalf!"
Everyone did not doubt his presence, so they picked up the wine in the glass and drank it.
After a while, Yang Fan felt something strange. It seemed that the taste of the wine was different from what he had drunk before. It seemed to be mixed with the taste of Chinese medicine.
But before Yang Fan could react, a trace of heat arose in his dantian, and even his breathing became a little heavy.
He raised his eyes to look at Changsun Wugou and the others. At this time, his eyes were blurred, his pretty face was shining with peach blossoms, and his eyes could almost make water.
Yang Fan was shocked.
There was something wrong with the wine and it was calculated.
But the reason in his mind was quickly swallowed up, his eyes turned red, and there was only one thought in his mind.
Clothes were peeled off piece by piece, and a faint whisper rose in the room.
After a while, several people met each other frankly, and their details were revealed under the candlelight.
The girls closed their eyes tightly, their snow-white skin showing an alluring pink color, with a hint of anticipation amid their resistance.
Yang Fan's throat squirmed a few times unconsciously, and he was already lost in the white snow.
…
Empress Xiao closed the door tightly and listened to the noise coming from the room. She clenched her fists with both hands and felt worried in her heart.
I hope this godson will not blame himself for driving him to a dead end.
Walking outside the courtyard, Empress Xiao heard a faint sound, but her heart felt like a stone had been dropped.
She wanted to let the Li family know that her Yang family's empire was not so easy to grab.
…
Inside the house!
The jade furnace is filled with ice and mandarin duck brocade, and the powder melts and fragrant sweat flows out of the pillow.
There was the sound of a windlass outside the curtain, and I raised my eyebrows and smiled in surprise.
The willow shade is light and deserted, and the cicada hairpin has fallen from the temples.
I have to work hard all my life to make you happy today.
The cold winter night also became a bit warmer this night.
The stream is flowing slowly and the fish are swimming freely in the middle of the river.
Yang Fan had a dream. He dreamed of playing in the water with the fairy mandarin duck, and dreamed of singing soaringly.
The medicinal properties come and go quickly.
If it was caused by drugs at the beginning and they were forced to do nothing, then in the end a few people have actually regained their sanity.
It's just human instinct to pretend not to know.
This also made Yang Fan feel happy.
Now that a big mistake has been made, it can only be done right.
