Chapter 826 The change of the young imperial concubine
The story that happened to Li Youlan was not as beautiful as a fairy tale, but she also did not become a victim of a power struggle.
Marrying Li Zijin, on the one hand, can give an explanation to his father and adoptive father, and on the other hand, at least he can be with a person who he does not dislike for the rest of his life, and he has a good emotional foundation with him before.
In comparison, Li Youlan can be regarded as one of the happier ones among thousands of ancient women.
Speaking of her own experience, Li Youlan also expressed emotion. First, she lamented that her experience was unpredictable, and second, she lamented how lucky she was to have such an ending.
In a garden that is still being renovated in the back garden of Bieyuan, Li Youlan calmly told her story.
Compared with half a year ago, Li Youlan no longer has those youthful innocence.
The capital is indeed a big dyeing vat, which can allow a girl who is no more than seventeen years old to quickly grow into a woman. Not only can she have the demeanor that a woman should have, but she can also analyze many situations in the capital.
Compared with before, Li Youlan is like two different people now.
Of course, Xia Shang was happy to see Li Youlan's change and wanted to live a stable life in the capital. Without such a state of mind, it would be impossible to gain a foothold in the capital.
There are also several maids in the garden who came out of the palace with Li Zijin, and now their identities have become the maids of the young prince's house.
Although their status has become lower, their lives have become much easier, which makes them very happy. They are trimming and transplanting various potted plants while chatting interestingly.
Li Youlan told her own story and was now very interested in Xia Shang's experience. However, she knew that Xia Shang's identity was unusual, so naturally she couldn't let outsiders hear it, so she called a few maids to go away.
Xia Shang's appearance caused a lot of discussion in the house. No one knew his identity, but judging from the closeness between his wife and this man, it was obvious that they were not ordinary friends.
It doesn't matter that the madam has a close friend, but when she comes to the house like this and the little prince is no longer around, there will be some rumors.
When the maids left, they looked at Xia Shang from time to time, their eyes full of doubts, and they seemed to be talking about something.
Xia Shang pointed to the side and asked: "Now that you are the young princess, you are not afraid of others' comments?"
"Even if there are discussions outside the mountains and fields, they are still in the mountains and fields and cannot reach the capital. Besides, it is just a discussion among a few servants. Isn't it as good as the joy you and I feel after seeing each other?"
Xia Shang looked Li Youlan up and down with a smile on his lips. Perhaps because there were no other people around, Xia Shang relaxed a lot and his eyes became a little unscrupulous.
Li Youlan was frightened by Xia Shang's gaze and touched her red cheeks: "Why are you looking at me like this? Is there something wrong with me?"
"Tsk, tsk, I haven't seen her for half a year, and now she looks like a princess. It's amazing."
"Pfft!" Li Youlan laughed, "Are you going to make fun of me too? By the way, when did you return to the capital? I heard that a lot of things happened in the capital, all related to you. That little brat said you escaped
There has been no news from the capital."
"That little brat..."
"It's Li Zijin!"
"This... is also your husband-in-law after all..."
Li Youlan was a bit arrogant and disdainful: "You are still young, what are you if you don't have a little brat? When it comes to husband and wife, I am more like an old woman. If I weren't in charge, that guy wouldn't know how much trouble he would cause."
"Um..." Xia Shang was speechless, feeling that he had taken their marriage too simply. Li Youlan was obviously just a young girl, but she pretended to be a big sister, which was a bit funny.
Xia Shang did not ask any more questions, and simply told about his experiences in Bashu. Of course, he avoided the important and ignored some sensitive issues.
In the capital, Xia Shangnai's identity as the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is no longer a secret. Even Li Youlan knows it.
"You refused to say it before, but now that little... Li Zijin found out and said that you are the head of the Procuratorate. Although I have never seen any Procuratorate, I heard some old people say that the Procuratorate is not a good person.
Earth. Are there any dangers when you return to the capital this time?"
"Um..." Xia Shang really couldn't answer this question.
Seeing Xia Shang's expression, Li Youlan understood: "No matter what danger you encounter, you must deal with it carefully. I couldn't help you before, but now I think I can do what I can. Li Zijin listens to me very much,
And you also know his location in the capital, so if there is any trouble, Li Zijin should be able to help you clear some obstacles."
Xia Shang smiled: "I am a very thick-skinned person. Even if you don't tell me, I will still show up when needed."
"But there is one thing I hope you can promise me."
"Huh?" Xia Shang was surprised by the sudden change of topic.
"If Li Zijin continues to pester you, you must not encourage him to become emperor."
"Why do you say this suddenly?"
"Everyone in the capital thought he was young and ignorant. He kept saying that he wanted to be emperor, but I was the only one who knew that he was not just talking."
"It's good for men to have goals."
"You don't know that not just anyone can be the emperor! Li Zijin will die because of this! I...I...I can't watch him die. Now I am very satisfied, I only hope that he and I can
Just stay here forever and live your whole life without worrying about the world."
Speaking of this, Li Youlan's voice trembled a little, and the worry revealed in her eyes was obviously not the same as in the past two days.
Xia Shang understood Li Youlan's mood: "Don't worry, Li Zijin is a good prince, and I will not watch him die."
"With your words, I feel relieved."
"By the way, where did Li Zijin go? Why don't you see him at home?"
"Went hunting with others."
At this point, Xia Shang originally intended to leave, but Li Youlan insisted on keeping Xia Shang for one more day.
Thinking that he and Li Youlan were already acquaintances and that he had nothing else to do, he agreed.
In order to entertain Xia Shang, Li Youlan went to the kitchen to give instructions on how to prepare cooked meals.
When it was time for dinner, Li Zijin came back from hunting.
Li Zijin, who was a dusty man, immediately dropped his bow and arrow when he saw Xia Shang, and gave Xia Shang a big bear hug.
There was another person with Li Zijin, a person from the world, not very old.
When Li Zijin was hugging Xia Shang, he walked up to Xia Shang and looked at Xia Shang carefully.
"Your Highness, who is this?"
"This is His Highness's young master."
Li Zijin has not changed much from before. He said he wanted to be his young master before, but due to some things he was not appointed by the emperor. However, in Li Zijin's heart, he always regarded Xia Shang as his young master.
What he said was accepted by Xia Shang, and there was nothing wrong with it.
But the people around him frowned: "So this and I are both the masters of His Royal Highness?" (To be continued)
