Princess Yufeng stepped forward, took a look at the empty wine bottle, and looked coldly at Lan Zhu who was kneeling there: "Didn't I tell you not to encourage your mother to get drunk anymore? Why, it's me.
It doesn’t work, or are you deaf?”
"It's...it's the villain's fault. Please punish me, Princess."
The lower Lan Zhu lowered his head, he didn't make any excuses, but the more he hung his head, the more pitiful he became.
"I have no time to punish you now, get out of here." Princess Yufeng said coldly.
If it is as Zhaozhao guessed, this person may be a spy, and it would be inappropriate to speak rashly at the moment.
You need to inform your mother first and find out the matter.
"Yes, I will resign..."
Lan Zhu's eyes were red and he retreated uneasily.
"Why are you so angry when you come back?"
The eldest princess leaned on the couch, glanced at her daughter, and said amusedly: "Who messed with Jiao Jiao in our family?"
"What do you mean, why did you drink so much wine again?"
Princess Yufeng sat down next to her.
"Didn't you also go to have a drink with your friends?" The eldest princess smelled the faint smell of alcohol on her daughter, looked at her sideways and said, "Only the common people are allowed to set fires, and the state officials are not allowed to light lamps?"
"At least my daughter won't get drunk."
The eldest princess raised her eyebrows.
She won't get drunk either.
She has not been truly drunk for many years...
First, the amount of alcohol has increased, and secondly, you really can't let yourself get drunk and talk nonsense.
Princess Yufeng asked seriously in a low voice: "Mother, do you think there is anything wrong with Lanzhu?"
"Lan Zhu?" The eldest princess smiled nonchalantly: "What could be wrong with him..."
"But what he just said to his mother, my daughter heard it outside. Fortunately, you are relatively sober. If you are really drunk and confused, if you say something that shouldn't be said, wouldn't someone catch you?
?”
Even though she did not care about the affairs of the court, as a royal princess, her childhood experience made her very clear that the name King Yan should not be mentioned casually.
Especially at the feet of the Emperor.
"And if you hadn't stopped him in time, he wouldn't have known what he was going to say next to make you lose your temper -" Princess Yufeng frowned.
"He is just a piano player, so he doesn't know any taboos."
The eldest princess leaned there lazily, with some confusion in her eyes: "But - why did you suddenly focus on Lan Zhu and have the idea to find fault with him?"
The daughter she raised knew very well that although she was not stupid, she was not usually such a vigilant person.
"It was Zhaozhao who reminded me."
There were no outsiders here. Princess Yufeng said truthfully: "A few days ago, the young master of the Xu family accidentally saw Lan Zhu and his maid secretly sending a message in the front garden -"
The eldest princess moved her eyes unexpectedly.
A girl from the Xu family?
That pretty little girl?
"You'd better ask someone to investigate the true origin of Lan Zhu." Princess Yufeng said: "Even if we can't find anything, we should drive him out as soon as possible. Such an unclean man must not call him again.
Stay with mother."
Princess Jingrong said without comment: "I will check it out."
However, people are destined to be unable to catch up.
Check or not, what does it matter?
Seeing that she was going to pour the wine again, Princess Yufeng snatched the wine glass and said angrily: "You should eat less wine. Didn't you say a few days ago that you should take good care of your body and live longer? My daughter will live longer in this life.
Anyway, I won’t get married, and I expect you to protect me for the rest of my life!”
The eldest princess smiled and said hello repeatedly.
Princess Yufeng held one of her mother's arms, leaned against her, and said: "Mom, our life is so happy now. If you have something on your mind, just talk to your daughter. There is no need to drink to drown your sorrows.
.”
"My mother has nothing to worry about now..." The eldest princess sighed and said, "Isn't she addicted to alcohol? Please allow your mother to drink less slowly..."
The mother and daughter were talking, and Princess Yufeng unconsciously fell asleep leaning on the eldest princess.
Looking at her daughter's peaceful sleeping face, the eldest princess looked gentle.
There are some things that she has no intention of interfering with and will not interfere with.
From beginning to end, she just wanted to live her own life with her daughter.
Therefore, she will not try to break some balances. This is meaningless and unnecessary to her.
A gust of autumn wind picked up the fallen leaves and threw them down again, passing through the withered lotus pond. The withered and yellow flower stems moved slightly with the wind. After the wind passed by, they still stood upright in the pond.
It's October, and it's getting colder in Beijing.
It's especially chilly at night.
It was almost midnight, and in a small, remote courtyard in Xia Mansion, the lights were still on, changing from the usual habit of turning off the lights early on weekdays. The maids and women were rushing in and out in a hurry, and women's cries of pain could be heard from time to time.
"Use harder, harder!"
"It's about to come out..."
Listening to the noise coming from the inner room, Mrs. Xue, the wife of the Xia family who had recently recovered from illness, had no trace of nervousness or uneasiness on her face, and there was only a bottomless chill in her eyes.
She had just told Po Wen that no matter what happens, she must make sure that the child is born safely.
If Mrs. Lu really fails to live up to her expectations, the worst possible outcome will be to perform a caesarean section to retrieve the child.
Anyway, the only thing she wanted to keep was this child.
But if it's a girl, then there's no need to keep any of them.
"Wow--"
A baby's cry was heard, followed by Wen Po's announcement of good news.
"It's happening, it's happening!"
"Congratulations, madam... you are a young master!"
Xue's eyes turned red when she heard this.
Her Han'er has a daughter...
God has eyes!
"Hurry...Hurry and give me a hug!" Mr. Xue stood up from the chair and urged impatiently.
Po Wen quickly wrapped the baby carefully and brought it to Mrs. Xue.
Mr. Xue looked stunned.
After a moment, he raised his hand tremblingly and touched the baby's face.
"Nurse..." Her voice sounded like she was crying but also like laughing, "Look at him...is he exactly the same as when Han'er was born?!"
After hearing this, the mother-in-law took a closer look, forced a smile and nodded, saying: "Yes, he looks very much like the second young master..."
In fact...she didn't see any resemblance.
If you really insist on saying they are similar, then you can only say that the babies you just gave birth to look almost the same...
But if Madam says she looks like the Second Young Master, then she should act like the Second Young Master, if this can make Madam feel better.
"No, it's not like..."
Mrs. Xue took the child and hugged her, staring closely at the child's face and eyes, and said: "He is Han'er!...My Han'er must be back!"
The wet nurse was slightly startled: "Madam..."
It's just like saying this, but this... is not necessary!
Po Wen was so frightened by these words that she didn't dare to raise her head.
Forgive her, the son who committed crimes and collected debts is dead. If he really comes back, wouldn't it be another disaster? Why is this lady so hard to think about it?
