King Shou came suddenly and walked quickly. After Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Lin returned, they curiously asked their granddaughter what King Shou had said.
Song Jianing was embarrassed to mention that Shouwang lifted her veil and said "not destroyed", only that after Shouwang asked her about her condition, he told her to be married in peace.
Mrs. Tai thought for a while, then breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said to her daughter-in-law and granddaughter: "It seems that the lord is very satisfied with this marriage, you two should stop thinking about it." The four girls made up a pair. As soon as the news spread, there was indeed some gossip in the capital. King Shou's visit today should be to show his attitude to his granddaughter, and he did not mean to dislike her granddaughter.
Lin agreed with her mother-in-law and touched the top of her daughter's head with relief.
Song Jianing secretly recalled the brief but thoughtful words of King Shou Wang, and didn't feel like he disliked her. As a result, the worries in Song Jianing's heart disappeared completely, and he became dizzy again. She is going to marry King Shou. King Shou is the future emperor. Does she still have a chance to be a queen
Song Jianing couldn't believe that he would have such a good life. It always felt like a dream. Lying alone on the bed at night, the face of Shouwang's fairy-like face was in his mind for a while, and Guo Xiao's cold and ruthless face was in his mind. Things are unpredictable. In her previous life, she served as a concubine to two men, and she was reborn once. By accident, she first entered the palace with her mother, and in a blink of an eye, she was given to the future emperor as a concubine.
Just when Song Jianing felt that this was just a beautiful dream, and the dream might wake up at any time, on the fourth day of the first day, the next door Shouwang Mansion sent someone to present the Dragon Boat Festival. In addition to some ordinary gifts, two baskets of yellow and bright apricots, there was actually another one. The little eunuch named Liu Xi. Liu Xi is eighteen this year. He is very fair-looking, with long and narrow eyes. He smiles very kindly.
Being brought to Song Jianing's side by Mrs. Lin, Liu Xi bent down and respectfully said to Song Jianing, "Miss Hui, my name is Liu Xi, I know a little bit of kung fu. Before the prince came out of the palace, he was always by the prince's side. Now the prince is by his side. There are guards, no need for the little one, so the lord asked the little girl to serve the girl, and said that from now on, the little girl will be called to guard the girl every step of the way.
Song Jianing was flattered, but King Shou actually rewarded the guard next to her
Lin was so happy that her daughter was almost disfigured by Tan Xiangyu. After she was sent back to the house, she had nightmares for several nights in a row. Now it's all right. With Liu Xi, the eunuch Wu from the palace, to protect her daughter, she just left. Beside her, she was also relieved. And the fact that King Shou can think of sending a little eunuch here also shows that King Shou has a heart for his daughter. For a mother, what is more gratifying than a son-in-law valuing his daughter
Looking at the direction of King Shou's Mansion, thinking that King Shou lived there alone, Lin's heart moved, and he said to his daughter: "Your Highness is so attentive, An An will make a plate of zongzi by himself and send it over there, and let's talk about your feelings." Reciprocity.
Song Jianing glanced at Liu Xi, nodded shyly, remembered something, and asked Liu Xi, "Do you know what kind of stuffed zongzi the lord likes to eat?"
Liu Xi was sweating on his back, bad, when he just came to the prospective princess, just when he needed to express himself, he didn't expect that he would not be able to answer the first question asked by the prospective princess. I can't blame him. He was the eunuch who was responsible for defending the prince before the prince opened the mansion. He only followed when the prince went out, but the prince rarely left the palace. He couldn't get close to the prince at all. How could he know the taste of the prince
But Liu Xi can talk, so he thought of the countermeasures in a flash, and said with a smile: "Girl chooses what you are good at and cooks, it's up to your heart, the lord must love to eat."
Song Jianing was at a loss, and looked to her mother for help.
Lin Shi guessed that Liu Xi probably didn't know, and he was amused. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Bean paste, red dates, fresh meat, and ham, let's do the same."
Song Jianing had an idea, and led the maids to the kitchen to work. She had no talent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but her cooking skills were good. Now, when the dumplings are released, it just so happens that it is almost noon. Song Jianing personally peeled the dumplings and put them on a plate, and sent Liu Xi to the palace.
On the first errand after changing masters, Liu Xi was very attentive, holding the food box in one hand and supporting the edge with the other, walking quickly and steadily. Going around to the front yard of Linyun Hall, I ran into a man wearing a light gray summer robe, with features very similar to Guo Boyan, Liu Xi smiled and stopped, bending over to salute: "The prince is here."
Guo Xiao got the news as early as the moment Liu Xi and Shou Wang's Mansion entered the Guo Gong Mansion. Now, when he saw a father-in-law in his own courtyard, he looked like he was practicing martial arts. Guo Xiao's eyes flashed quickly. A bit of sarcasm. King Shou gave her such a person because he was worried that she would be framed again, or did he see something
"This is..." Guo Xiao asked indifferently when his eyes fell on the food box in Liu Xi's hands.
Liu Xi smiled: "Eating zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival, my wife asked Xiao Xiao to send a copy to the prince to express his feelings."
Guo Xiao nodded.
Liu Xi walked away with the food box, left the Guogong Mansion, turned left, and entered the Shouwang Mansion after a while. Before dinner was opened in the palace, Zhao Hengren was in the study, and when Eunuch Fu led Liu Xi in, Liu Xi was carrying a food box, his eyes moved slightly, and he slowly put down the scroll in his hand, waiting for Liu Xi to speak.
Liu Xi congratulated: "My lord, the fourth lady is very happy to receive the boxing gift from you. She personally cooked four zongzi, and asked the little one to bring it to you to taste."
Zhao Heng nodded.
Eunuch Fu took the food box, put it on the table, opened the lid, and the heat mixed with the fragrance of zongzi rushed towards him, making people drool. However, when he saw that there were actually two sweet rice dumplings in it, Eunuch Fu’s heart sank. Because of his mouth disease, the prince didn’t like sweets. Usually after the Dragon Boat Festival, he told the kitchen in advance to only make salty rice dumplings…
But the zongzi had already been delivered, and there was no time to change the zongzi for him, so Eunuch Fu had to bite the bullet and bring out the two plates of zongzi.
Zhao Heng glanced at Zongzi with no expression, and said, "Face."
Liu Xi is confused, what face
Eunuch Fu understood as soon as he heard it, and hurriedly asked for the master: "Is the fourth girl's face better?"
Liu Xi suddenly realized, lowered his head and said, "Okay, I can't see a rash at all." It was as tender as tofu.
Eunuch Fu relaxed and told Liu Xi to go back first, and he served the prince alone: "My lord, how many dishes should I ask the kitchen to bring over?"
Zhao Heng said nothing, picked up his chopsticks, turned his eyes around the four zongzi, and picked up the bean paste zongzi closest to him first.
Eunuch Fu opened his eyes.
Zhao Heng ate all of the four dumplings without hesitation.
The Duke's Mansion next door also held a banquet. During the Dragon Boat Festival, all the people from the three rooms came to Mrs. Tai's Changxin Courtyard.
Tingfang and Lanfang are both married, and Mrs. Tai glanced at Yunfang and Song Jianing, and said with emotion: "Next year on the Dragon Boat Festival, I will not have a granddaughter by my side. The granddaughter who is like a flower and jade has been kept by my side for more than ten years. Yes, I'm reluctant to marry one of them."
Song Jianing lowered her head with a blushing face. Yun Fang saw that her face became more charming and charming after the rash. She pursed her lips and lowered her head, but her face was half as shy as an engagement girl should be, her brows were frowning and her mouth was pouting. , as if angry with someone. The second lady just pretended that she didn't see it, and smiled and coaxed Mrs. Tai: "Mother forgot, An An is close to you. If you think about it, shout through the wall and An An will hear it."
Mrs. Tai looked at her little granddaughter, nodded and smiled.
Guo Xiao sat at the men's table, looking at Song Jianing's blushing profile, thinking of the rice dumplings she sent to Shou Wang's mansion, the anger that had been suppressed in his chest for several days suddenly burst into flames. He was not reconciled, not reconciled that he watched his grown-up stepsister marry another man, not reconciled that he had done so much, and finally was succeeded by King Shou.
However, there is still half a year, and it is not certain who will win.
~
She is also a girl to be married, Yun Fang only needs to stay in the third room and embroider a small dowry, but Song Jianing is very busy, because she is married to the prince, and the palace specially sent a maid to teach her royal rules. . It was the sweltering heat, and Song Jianing was sweating every day. After three months, he actually lost a lot of weight, but only his arms, legs and waist were thinner. His face was still chubby, and his chest was not shriveled.
After three months of teaching, Mammy went back to the palace and returned to Empress Li.
When Emperor Xuande came over in the evening, the two of them talked about the marriage of King Shou, Queen Li rubbed her forehead for Emperor Xuande and said, "Your Majesty, Sister Hui picked up two palace maids to send to King Gong, King Shou. It seems that there has never been a palace maid by your side, right?" King Shou is not her own son, if possible, Queen Li really doesn't want to bother, but she is sitting in the queen's seat, and she has to manage what she should manage, so as not to be caught Hold on to the handle, not to mention that after the selection of the concubine at the beginning of the year, Queen Li could see that the emperor had that stuttering son in his heart.
Emperor Xuande was busy with political affairs every day, and the time he could allocate to his sons was limited. He never paid attention to whether there were women around his sons. Hearing the words at this time, Emperor Xuande finally remembered that the third child is about to get married, how can he do without a palace maid? No one taught, and it would be a shame if the bridal chamber didn't work that night, or in the wrong place.
"Tomorrow you pick two, the plumper one, and send it to him." Emperor Xuande said casually, thinking he understood his son's preference for women.
Empress Li saw Song Jianing and smiled understandingly. The next morning, she really picked two plump and beautiful women and asked them to send them to the Shou Palace.
The carriage stopped in front of Shouwang's mansion, and someone went to report to the master.
Zhao Heng was painting, and when he heard the words, he kept moving and said only two words: "Girl."
Fu Gonggong understands the truth, and the person sent to the palace in the palace is not good to resign, but how to deal with it is entirely up to the master to decide. After walking out of the study, Eunuch Fu sat for a while with the father-in-law sent by Queen Li. After sending them off, he didn't take a close look at the two palace maids, and directly asked them to be arranged to be a sweeping maid in a remote courtyard.
Just a joke, his master is a man who almost became an immortal, and an ordinary woman is also worthy to serve
When he was done, Eunuch Fu moved his mind and went to the study to ask the master: "My lord, do you want to inform the Fourth Young Lady about this? The next door may already know about this."
Just as Zhao Heng was about to say no, she didn't respond when she suddenly appeared on the drawing paper that day she was worried that her bad reputation would affect him.
Do not speak, is the default.
Eunuch Fu went to the arrangement swiftly.
