Of course what Hua'er said was right. She naturally knew that doing so would bring trouble to her mother and concubine, so she just said it. Thinking of what happened today, she really felt very excited. She mustered up the courage to refuse.
He received His Majesty's reward just so that his mother and concubine could return to the capital from Qingshan Temple.
I believe that Your Majesty will be very surprised by today's move. He will probably grant you a marriage soon, right?
Princess Ning just talked to Hua'er for a while, and suddenly she felt sleepy before falling asleep.
Early the next morning, after Princess Ning had breakfast, she said goodbye to the old lady and returned to the palace.
Because Prince Cheng was worried about Princess Ning, he ordered his housekeeper to report the news to Princess Ning.
Soon, Prince Cheng knew that Princess Ning had returned to the palace, so he went to the princess's yard.
"You girl are too courageous. If His Majesty gets angry with you, how will you respond?" Prince Cheng said worriedly.
"Brother, please don't be angry. Yesterday was my aunt's birthday, and Your Majesty is in a very good mood. I don't know when I will see Your Majesty next time when I enter the palace, so I have to muster the courage to tell Your Majesty." Princess Ning said.
"You really want to scare me to death. Didn't grandma say anything? Didn't she lose her temper with you?" Prince Cheng asked.
"Grandma is very nervous, but not angry," Princess Ning said.
"These are all gifts given to you by your Majesty. Your Majesty sent someone to deliver them last night." Prince Cheng said.
Princess Ning knew it was ingots and silk, so she didn't pay too much attention. She just happily said to Prince Cheng: "Brother, you can't believe it, right? Your Majesty actually agreed to my request." Princess Ning said.
"Of course I can't believe that His Majesty would agree. You scared me so much that I broke into a cold sweat." Prince Cheng said.
"Brother, my concubine is coming back, aren't you happy? As long as I take one risk, my concubine will be back," Princess Ning said.
"How can eldest brother be unhappy? It's just that eldest brother should have been the one to take the lead in this matter. How could I let you take the risk?" Prince Cheng said.
"My eldest brother has always protected me. I should do something for my mother and concubine. In fact, before entering the palace, I just wanted to sincerely wish my aunt a happy birthday. Suddenly I remembered that my mother and concubine were still suffering in Qingshan Temple, so I mustered up the courage to say
Come out." Princess Ning said.
"Don't be so impulsive next time, this is no joke." Prince Cheng said.
"I understand, brother, Ning'er will never dare to do it again." Princess Ning said.
"Did you sleep well at the princess's mansion last night?" Prince Cheng asked.
"Actually, I couldn't sleep because I was so happy. I didn't fall asleep until late at night after chatting with Hua'er." Princess Ning said.
"In that case, why don't you go in and have a good rest?" Prince Cheng said.
Princess Ning said coquettishly: "Brother, I want to go to Qingshan Temple now and see my mother and concubine as soon as possible."
"I know you are impatient. Even I want to bring my father and mother back as soon as possible. But you should know that it is not appropriate to go at this time." Prince Cheng said.
"Of course I know that doing this will bring trouble to my mother and concubine, I'm just saying it casually," Princess Ning said.
"Since you know it's not possible, just go inside and sleep for a while." Prince Cheng said.
Princess Ning nodded and went into the house to rest. Because she was too excited last night and couldn't rest well, she lay down and fell asleep as soon as she came back.
After Prince Cheng returned to his study, he sent someone to deliver a letter to Qingshan Temple.
After calming down, he thought of Ning'er's bold performance last night. He never thought that Ning'er would do this. If something happened, the mother-in-law would be very sad. In fact, he had already started planning to ask Ning'er for help.
His Majesty begged for mercy to bring his mother and concubine back. Ning'er was one step ahead of her. Because of His Majesty's reward, she had the opportunity to plead for mercy.
"Butler, please ask someone to tidy up the main courtyard immediately. The master and his wife will be back soon," Prince Cheng said.
"Really, Your Majesty? It's really great. The palace will not be so deserted in the future," the butler said.
"Let people clean it carefully, and they will be back in two days." Prince Cheng said.
"yes."
In the early morning two days later, Prince Cheng and Princess Ning were already on the carriage to Qingshan Temple. Thinking that they could pick up their mother and concubine today, Princess Ning was very happy. The scenery outside she saw along the way was no longer like last time.
Just as listless.
Soon, they arrived at Qingshan Temple. Princess Ning got off the carriage and ran into the yard. Because the master and his wife had already received the news, they sat in the yard drinking tea and waiting for their arrival.
"Father, mother, concubine, Ning'er is here to take you back." Princess Ning entered the courtyard with a smile.
"Ning'er, have you forgotten what my mother-in-law told you?" the lady said with a smile.
"Ning'er really misses her mother and concubine so much. She wants to see her mother and concubine as soon as possible. Why are you still drinking tea with your father? Have you packed everything?" Princess Ning asked.
"Of course it's all packed up. I didn't bring many things here originally," the lady said.
Prince Cheng asked someone to help his father and concubine pack their things and get on the carriage. Then he came over and said to the master and his wife: "Prince father and concubine."
"Why didn't you take a good look at her when you entered the palace? Fortunately, Your Majesty didn't care. This child Ning'er is really too impulsive." The master said.
"Father, how can you blame eldest brother? What does this matter have to do with eldest brother? This is not Ning'er's plan at all, but what Ning'er really wanted to say to His Majesty at that time. After Ning'er blurted it out, she was also
I'm scared." Princess Ning said.
"Master, please don't talk about this girl anymore," the lady said.
"Just protect her, sooner or later something will happen." Princess Ning said.
"Father, it is thanks to Ning'er that I can take my mother and concubine back this time. Ning'er almost didn't have the chance to enter the palace. I don't know if I will have the chance next time. I can only take advantage of this opportunity to win."
Princess Ning said.
"Concubine Mother knows that Ning'er was actually frightened, right?" the lady asked.
"Ning'er felt scared only after His Majesty agreed. Ning'er didn't know where the courage came from at that time, and she suddenly rejected Your Majesty." Princess Ning said.
"Thanks to Ning'er, otherwise my mother-in-law would have to stay at Qingshan Temple for a while," the lady said.
"Ning'er misses his mother and concubine, so he begged me to bring her here early in the morning." Prince Cheng said.
"Of course I know Ning'er is filial, but my mother-in-law doesn't want her to do this," the lady said.
"Concubine, isn't Ning'er okay? As long as Ning'er thinks that concubine is still suffering here in Qingshan Temple, Ning'er won't be afraid anymore." Princess Ning said.
Madam was very pleased to see Princess Ning being so sensible. She was actually willing to plead with His Majesty for herself. Fortunately, His Majesty did not get angry, otherwise Ning'er would suffer again.
After all the things were moved to the carriage, Prince Cheng arranged for the master and his wife to get on the carriage first, and he and Ning'er got into another carriage that contained the things.
Ning'er is so happy. Starting today, her mother and concubine will move back to the palace. Now that her mother and concubine are back, who dares to bully her?
After returning to the palace, the housekeeper and all the servants stood in the courtyard to greet the master and his wife.
"Sir, madam."
Because Prince Cheng had ordered the housekeeper the night before to call the old prince and concubine directly the master and his wife when they came back. She was worried that her mother and concubine would think of sad things when they heard the title of concubine.
After everything was moved into the yard, Prince Cheng said: "Father, Prince Mother, Concubine, you have just come back, please take a good rest first."
After the master and his wife looked at each other, the wife said: "After the master and I change our clothes, we must first go to pay my respects to the old lady. You and Ning'er don't leave yet. Come with us."
"Well, concubine, my grandmother is not in the palace now." Prince Cheng said.
"Where did grandma go?" said the lady.
"Grandma is staying at the princess's mansion recently. My father and mother should take a rest first, and then Sheng'er will talk to you in detail." Prince Cheng said.
"No need, Ning'er, please go back and rest first. Sheng'er will stay and tell you what happened." The master said.
After Princess Ning left, Prince Cheng said: "It's all Sheng'er's fault. Grandma must have lived in the Princess's mansion because she was angry."
"The old lady has always loved you, so why would she be angry with you? What on earth did you do to make the old lady angry?" the lady asked in disbelief.
"Concubine, don't ask, I will continue to persuade my grandmother to join the palace." Sheng'er said.
"Sheng'er, tell me clearly what happened?" the master asked.
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Prince Cheng had no choice but to tell the master and his wife everything that had happened recently.
The madam did not expect that Prince Cheng would be so confused. After Ning'er caused trouble in the palace, she did not recover properly and went to the old lady's yard to cause trouble. But at this time, Prince Cheng should teach Ning'er how to contradict me.
Where are people?
"Why is it Hua'er who is following Ning'er?" the lady asked.
Before leaving, Madam specifically told Qi'er to take good care of Ning'er and not let her cause trouble. However, the maid serving Ning'er closely was Hua'er. What on earth is going on?
Prince Cheng did not tell his wife about Tan'er. He did not expect that he was just a maid and would be discovered by his wife.
"The ones taking care of Ning'er these days are Hua'er and Qin'er," Prince Cheng said.
"Where is that girl Qi'er? Where did she go?" the lady asked.
"Concubine, please don't ask, it's all over." Prince Cheng said.
"From the moment I asked you what happened recently to now, you have been hesitant and unwilling to speak. What happened? Did Ning'er get into trouble again?" the lady asked.
"Ning'er didn't get into any trouble. During this period, Ning'er has been following the rules. Qi'er has changed her name and stayed with her grandmother. It's better for my mother not to ask questions." Prince Cheng said.
Prince Cheng did not want to tell his wife, because she would definitely scold Ning'er for this matter. Therefore, he did not mention it at the beginning. When it came to making his grandmother angry, he only mentioned that Ning'er was in her yard.
Teach slaves a lesson.
She was just a maid, and he really didn't understand why Madam was so inquisitive.
"The old lady wants to keep the chess piece?" the lady asked.
Prince Cheng could only say: "My grandmother thought she was gentle and kind, so she stayed with her."
Seeing that Prince Cheng refused to say anything, Madam knew that it might be related to Ning'er. The old lady did this because of Ning'er, otherwise how could she keep her most trusted maid by her side?
"If you refuse to tell me, I will personally ask the old lady. What did Ning'er do to make the old lady do this?" the lady said.
"Concubine, in fact, this matter is indeed Ning'er's fault. However, the matter has passed, so you should not ask anymore." Prince Cheng said.
"Qi'er is someone I trust very much, so I arranged to stay with Ning'er. Before I left, I hoped that she would dissuade Ning'er from causing trouble. How long has it been since the old lady stayed with me?" The lady was a little angry.
