After Yun Shang returned to the house, she was also a little absent-minded. Seeing this, Qianyin looked at her for a long time and finally couldn't help but said, "Princess, what's the matter? Look at your depressed look?"
Yun Shang was silent for a long time before saying, "How long have I been married to the prince?"
Qian Yin was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but glance at Yun Shang, and said hesitantly, "Has the princess even forgotten this? It's been a year."
"It's been a year..." Yun Shang thought for a moment. She and Luo Qingyan should have consummated their marriage after returning from Kangyang. It has already been nearly half a year. In the past six months, she and Luo Qingyan have been in love.
There were a lot of days, but there was still no movement in her belly.
When she left Ningguo, her mother-in-law also advised her to give birth to an heir as soon as possible, but she didn't care at that time.
Concubine Yun's words just now sounded the alarm for her. If Xia Guozhen valued his heir so much, Luo Qingyan had promised before that she would be the only one in this life, but if she was the only one, it would be difficult for this heir to prosper.
Sure enough, as the mother-in-law said, once a man has the heart to compete in the world, many things will happen. I wonder, if one day, Xia Huanyu asks Luo Qingyan to choose between Jiangshan and concubine, his
What will the choice be?
"Princess..." Qianyin called out in a low voice again, and found that the princess had already wandered away. She was silent for a moment, then stood aside and stopped talking.
After touching for more than half an hour, Yun Shang came back to her senses and asked, "You called me just now? What's the matter?"
Qianyin opened her mouth and shook her head, "Nothing." After a pause, she continued, "I just heard that Princess Tai'an was released from prison."
Yun Shang nodded, the Queen Mother was already dead, just to exchange Princess Tai'an's life, Xia Huanyu would not do anything too cruel, and it was only a matter of time before Princess Tai'an came out.
"My servant heard that after Princess Tai'an was released from prison, she ran to Qianling Palace and cried hard. Then she returned to the princess's mansion, dismissed all the bosses in the mansion, and invited Mr.
There are famous girls who come to teach at home, such as chess, calligraphy, and painting. After asking around, I found that Princess Tai'an didn't seem to be just showing off this time. I heard that she was studying seriously every day." Qianyin lowered her head and looked at her.
Yun Shang, "I always feel that this princess must have completely hated us this time. If this continues and she becomes stronger to deal with us, won't she have another enemy."
Hearing this, Yun Shang was silent for a long time, then chuckled, "Silly girl, this is the Xia Kingdom. In the Xia Kingdom, you don't need to remember who your enemies are, you only need to remember who are your allies. Believe me, we
Prince Rui's Mansion definitely has many more enemies than allies in Xia Kingdom."
Qianyin was stunned for a moment, feeling that her future was a bit worrying. Just as she was thinking about it, she heard the butler's voice from outside the door, "Princess, Mr. Liu Yinfeng Liu wants to see you."
Yun Shang fell silent, and finally shook her head, "Butler, please help me refuse. Now that Prince Rui is not in the mansion, I, a woman, can't meet my husband after all. Countless people are already eyeing Prince Rui's mansion. If I get involved again,
I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with any rumors."
The housekeeper responded outside the door and stepped back.
Qianyin looked at Yunshang tentatively and asked softly, "Princess, is this Liu Yinfeng an enemy or a friend?"
Hearing this, Yun Shang raised her eyes and looked at Qianyin, who laughed and said, "If we say he is an enemy, he seems to care about the princess in every way. For those who don't know, I would think that he loves the princess very much. But if
He is said to be a friend, and he seems to be very close to the Seventh Prince. I heard that he is the Seventh Prince's husband, and he was adopted by Liu Jin since he was a child. Liu Jin is the Seventh Prince's grandfather, and Liu Yinfeng has to repay him no matter what.
Liu Jin’s kindness in raising me.”
Yun Shang was silent for a long time before saying, "I always felt that he had no ill intentions towards me, but I didn't want to have too much involvement with him. As you said, everyone in the court felt that he was closely involved with the Seventh Prince.
Guang, if I meet him often, I'm afraid it will cause some rumors."
Yun Shang didn't want to talk about Liu Yinfeng, so she stood up and said, "I'm a little tired. Let's go to bed and rest for a while. Ask me to get up before dinner." Yun Shang said softly.
Qianyin nodded, waited for Yun Shang to rest, and then tiptoed out of the door. Ever since the incident with the witchcraft doll came out, Yun Shang had sent away the old people in Prince Rui's mansion. Recently, many new people have been added to the management.
When one person is too busy, Qianyin will go to help and keep an eye on it, fearing that someone with evil intentions will put Xizuo in there.
As soon as he walked out of the yard, he saw the housekeeper hurried over again. When he saw Qianyin, the housekeeper stopped and asked, "Is the princess in the house?"
The housekeeper handed Qian Yin a letter and said softly, "This is what Mr. Liu Yinfeng Liu told me to give to the princess. Since the princess has rested, please help me bring it in."
Qian Yin responded, and the housekeeper turned around and left.
Lowering his eyes and looking at the letter in his hand, Qianyin turned to look at the yard, then resignedly walked back to the yard, but just put the letter on the table outside, thinking that he would come back later and ask Yun Shang to get up.
Leave it to her when the time comes. After putting the letter away, Qianyin walked out of the courtyard door again and walked towards the courtyard where the servants lived.
Having learned a lesson from the witchcraft doll incident, the housekeeper was asking the new servants to clean the courtyards one by one without sparing any corner. Qian Yin stood aside and watched, and was busy until the sky gradually faded.
When it's dark.
Just as he was thinking about going back to the courtyard, he saw the doorman coming over with a red invitation, "Sister Qianyin, this is an invitation from the Duke of Hua's Palace, saying it is from the fifty-five-year-old wife of the Duke of Japan.
On my birthday, I’m having a banquet at the Duke’s mansion.”
When Qianyin saw the invitation, she quickly smiled and said, "Okay, I'll send it to the princess."
After returning to the courtyard with the invitation, Yun Shang had woken up and was leaning on the bed in a daze. Qianyin quickly walked over and said, "Princess, the Duke's Mansion has sent an invitation, saying that Mrs. Guo's fifty-fifth birthday will be the day after tomorrow.
, a banquet at the Duke’s Mansion.”
Yun Shang was stunned for a moment, then turned her head, "The day after tomorrow? Why has no one told me?" After a pause, she remembered that she had just arrived in Xia Kingdom, and the birthdays of the ladies in the mansion were held at the secret guard.
The survey information was not mentioned above either.
"Is there any birthday gift in the house that I can give you?" Yun Shang asked quickly.
Qianyin pondered for a moment and then said, "When the princess left Ningguo, the emperor also rewarded many things. They are all treasures. We brought them all here, so we can go and pick them out."
Yun Shang was a little dissatisfied, "Mrs. Hua Guogong truly loves both the prince and me. If she just randomly chooses a treasure as a gift, she will lose some of her care."
After pondering for a moment, he turned to Qianyin and said, "Prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones. I will personally draw a picture of all the immortals congratulating the Duke's wife on her birthday. Although it is not precious, this feeling is the most important thing."
important."
When Qianyin heard the words, he quickly agreed and went to make arrangements.
After gathering pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Yun Shang stood up, walked to the desk, and started drawing.
Yun Shang really put a lot of thought into the painting of immortals congratulating them on their birthdays. It took him a whole day and night to draw a three-meter-long painting of all the immortals congratulating them on their birthdays. Yun Shang asked Qian Yin to take the treasure.
After decorating the pavilion, I was satisfied.
On the early morning of Duke Hua's birthday, Yun Shang got up early and took Qianyin and two maids to the Duke's mansion. Since Duke Hua was also out to quell chaos, there was no grand celebration for this birthday banquet.
, most of the people invited were women from the inner house, and there were also some clan men with some relatives, all of whom were greeted by the sons of Hua Guogong.
As soon as Yun Shang entered the house, she was called to the flower hall in the backyard. In the flower hall, the Duke's wife and several older women were watching a play. They were singing on the stage.
Without stopping, Yun Shang paused, but then walked towards Mrs. Hua Guogong.
The Duke's wife was very happy when she saw her, "Are you here? Come, sit down and listen to the play with me."
Yun Shang sat down obediently as she was told. Fortunately, the play was not too long and the song was finished in less than half an hour. Only then did Duke Hua turn around with a smile and said, "You have just arrived in Xia Kingdom. In Jincheng
Old ladies from prestigious aristocratic families should also meet him."
Yun Shang didn't know why the Duke's wife said this, but she nodded with a smile, turned around and looked at the old ladies, the Duke and the Lady smiled, starting from the woman in a purple robe sitting at the head, "
This is Princess Chunxiang."
King Chunxiang, Yun Shang has seen from the information, is the elder brother of the late emperor.
"Coming in order are Mrs. Liu, the wife of Situ, Mrs. Wang, the wife of the Taiwei, Princess Yunhua, Mrs. Qian, the wife of General Chang Wei, and Mrs. Lou, the wife of General Zhenbei."
Yun Shang stood up and saluted one by one, with a respectful, gentle and polite expression on her face.
"You must have seen this lady at the palace banquet. She is Princess Rui." Mrs. Guo Gong smiled and pointed at Yun Shang.
"He is a good, humble and polite boy." Princess Chunxiang praised softly, and everyone quickly responded.
Princess Yunhua also smiled and said, "I saw it at the palace banquet that day. Prince Rui and Prince Rui are a talented and beautiful couple. They are a match made in heaven. There are few people in the Xia Kingdom who can match her appearance. Her temperament is amazing."
It's also good, Prince Rui is a lucky one."
After everyone took turns to praise her, a maid came over, leaned in front of Mrs. Hua Guogong and said, "Old madam, Princess Tai'an came here with several little princesses and princes. She said she wanted to congratulate the old lady.
Where is Shou?"
Mrs. Hua Guogong raised her eyebrows and turned around, "Oh?"
As he spoke, he smiled and said to the old ladies, "These old ladies come here often, so there is no need to be restrained. You can just watch whatever show you want."
Princess Chunxiang waved her hand, "That little evil star is not easy to deal with. Just go ahead and we won't blame you for being lazy."
The Duke's wife took Yunshang out of the flower hall and walked along the long corridor to the backyard garden. "Although these old ladies look older, they are also powerful people. These famous families in Jincheng
, most of them are still in their hands. It is always good for you to see them more. People like them are used to shouting and drinking at home, and their children and grandchildren greet them with smiles but not sincerely. If you see more of them,
Say a few thoughtful words to her, and she will treat you like a granddaughter. Sometimes the mouth of a housewife is the most unreliable." (To be continued)
