The fourth prince had breakfast and was about to go out, but Mrs. Yu stopped him and said, "You are staying at home well, where are you going?"
The fourth prince said: "Your Majesty has not gone to court for several days, and I don't know what he is busy with. I see that some people have stopped being human."
"I know I'm still running around," Mrs. Yu said angrily, "Why don't you stop now."
The fourth prince said: "I'm going to see the fifth child. He's been ill these days. I have to go see him."
Mrs. Yu said, "Don't worry! I'm afraid if you go, some people will make nonsense again."
The fourth prince said: "Am I afraid of them? Let them say so!"
Mrs. Yu said: "It's not for the sake of others. It's already difficult enough for Lao Wu. I'm afraid that you will cause trouble."
The fourth prince said: "What trouble can I cause? I was raised by Empress Fu, and I am a grasshopper on the same rope as the fifth child. What really happens, how can I survive alone?"
"Come on! Come on! I know it's useless whatever you say with your arrogant temper," Mrs. Yu let go, "If you want to leave, leave quickly. You and him are on the same rope. Can I fly alone?"
She let go of her hand but the fourth prince did not leave. He stood there and looked at her with a smile: "Didn't you say you wanted to go to the palace to see Empress Fu? Why haven't you gone yet?"
"Let's go now," Mrs. Yu said, "we are already tying the car."
The fourth prince said: "Then you have to have lunch in the palace. Lao Wu and I will go have a drink, and I will bring you lotus leaf elbows in the evening."
"Go, no one cares." Mrs. Yu said, but she couldn't help but laugh.
As soon as the fourth prince left the mansion, he saw a carriage coming and stopping in front of the mansion.
It's the second prince's car.
Zhu Yunhe's nanny, Mrs. Du, walked up to her with a skirt in hand and a smile on her face: "I would like to pay my respects to His Highness the Fourth Highness."
"Mother Du, why are you here? Are Yunhe and Yunlu in the car?" the fourth prince asked.
"Exactly, exactly." Du Shi replied diligently, "You came here specifically to pay your respects to the fourth prince and concubine. Is Your Highness going out?"
At this time, the two sisters also poked their heads out of the car to say hello to the fourth prince.
"Then go in, I have something else to do." The fourth prince said as he walked down the steps, got on his horse and left.
When Mrs. Yu heard that the two sisters were coming, she quickly ordered someone to come in quickly.
"Come and sit in the Nuan Pavilion! It's a rare time for you two sisters to come here. Have you had breakfast?" Although Mrs. Yu and Ma Feiyan are not in love, time has passed long ago. Besides, how can she be like a child?
Therefore, he was very considerate to the two sisters.
"Thank you, fourth aunt, we came here after dinner." Although Zhu Yunhe is not old, he is very articulate, "Why is sister Yun Ying missing?"
"She hasn't been at home these days and has gone to live with her grandmother." Mrs. Yu said, "If I had known you were coming, I wouldn't have asked her to go."
"We came today to ask our fourth aunt to take us to the palace. We haven't been to the palace for a long time and we want to take a look." Zhu Yunlu said, "I want the lotus cheese and the eight treasures of Yingluo in the imperial kitchen.
"
"Children always love sweets," Mrs. Yu smiled, "Why doesn't the second prince and concubine enter the palace?"
"Our mother is not at home," Zhu Yunhe said. "Besides, she is inconvenienced now, and it is difficult for us to work for her."
Mrs. Yu heard what she said and it was reasonable. Looking at it, there was indeed no suitable female family member who could take them into the palace.
So he said: "I happen to be going to the palace, so I will take you there! Do you want to sit in the same car with me or sit separately?"
"It's better to separate. After all, we have to stay in the palace for a while. It is more convenient to go home directly after leaving the palace." Zhu Yunhe said.
Mrs. Yu then packed up and went into the palace.
After entering the palace, Ms. Yu warned the two sisters: "Logically, you have to go to pay your respects to His Majesty first, but His Majesty may not have free time. You can also go elsewhere, but don't run around wherever you go."
"We understand, Fourth Aunt, thank you very much." Zhu Yunhe and Zhu Yunlu said in unison.
Mrs. Yu did not invite them to go to Concubine Fu, because if they wanted to go, they would naturally take the initiative.
Nanny Du often went in and out of the palace, so she accompanied the two sisters to Yangze Palace first.
Needless to say, the emperor was too busy to see him.
"Let's go! Let's go to Concubine Xian." Du Shi whispered, "Let her help us think of a solution."
The colder the weather, the warmer Concubine Xian's house seems.
She keeps orchids all year round, and many of them bloom only in winter, so they can never stand the cold.
"Your Majesty, the nanny from the Second Prince's Mansion has come with the two grandsons and said she wants to see you." Jinglian walked in and said.
"Let them come in quickly, don't freeze." Concubine Xian was wearing a matte-colored cotton robe, which was soft and elegant, making her even more loving.
"Mother Xian Fei's house smells so good," several people couldn't help but praise when they came in. "It makes people breathe very comfortably."
Concubine Xian greeted warmly: "Come in, come in! No courtesy, no courtesy. You are here at the right time. I find it deserted here!"
After saying that, he went to hold the hands of the two sisters.
"Ouch!" Zhu Yunlu called out. Although Zhu Yunhe didn't call out, he also flinched.
"What's going on? But does it hurt you? I didn't use any force." Concubine Xian couldn't help but be surprised.
"It's not your fault," Zhu Yunhe said, "It's us..."
"What's wrong with you?" Concubine Xian asked.
"Empress, please save us!" Zhu Yunlu howled, "We will not survive!"
"What's going on? Don't cry. If you have anything to say, talk to me." Concubine Xian quickly comforted her, "I hate to see my child cry. Oh, it's so pitiful."
At this time, Mrs. Du knelt down and said, "Xianfei, you are the most compassionate. Please save these two grandsons!"
"Mrs. Du, you are an adult now. If you have something to say, please say it properly, but don't wrap it up any more," Concubine Xian said. "I am scared to death by you now."
"Your Majesty, we came to the palace today to express our feelings to His Majesty," Du said in tears, "but we couldn't see you, so we came to you as a last resort."
As he spoke, he rolled up the sleeves of the two women. The scars on their arms were shocking.
Du continued to cry: "This is what people can see, but there are also places that people can't see."
Concubine Xian and everyone in her room were shocked: "What's going on? Who did it?"
"She is the second prince's concubine," Du said, "we only dared to come out when she was not in the house."
"How could it be? Don't say that she is a noble lady, well-educated and well-versed in etiquette, and she married into the royal family. Even if she were from a small family, she wouldn't be able to do such a thing." Concubine Xian couldn't believe it.
"It's true," Zhu Yunhe cried. "She was really good to us when she first came here, but she changed later."
"Don't cry, the more I cry, the more upset I will be. Nanny Du, are you an adult? Please tell me, a child can't explain clearly." Concubine Xian said.
