Coming out of Duke Jing's mansion and getting into the carriage, Yun Chi pulled Huayan into his arms and kissed her like punishment.
Huayan was so breathless from his kiss, she couldn't breathe, stretched out her hand to push him, but he ignored her, until Huayan felt that she was about to be suffocated by him, Yun Chi let her go, looked at her and asked, "I'm going to pretend to be like this in the future." Are you claiming not to go home?"
Huayan gasped for a long time before letting go, and glared at Yunchi with an angry smile, "Madame Guo's kindness is hard to refuse, I can't shirk it."
Yun Chi snorted, wrapped her arms around her waist and said, "No matter how close Duke Jing's mansion is, it's not as close as your relationship with Donggong and me."
Huayan laughed, stretched out her hand to beat him, and seeing that he seemed really angry enough, she stretched out her hand to hook his neck again, moved her upper lip to kiss the corner of his lips proactively, and said softly, "Yes, yes, the mansion of Jingguo will get closer again. , and there is no Donggong and you to get close to me, I am the closest to you, don't be angry, even if I can't refuse in the future, I will wait for you to make the decision."
After being coaxed by her like this, Yun Chi's complexion immediately turned brighter, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, "Remember your words."
Huayan nodded, "I remember." Dare she not remember
When the carriage returned to the East Palace, Hua Yan remembered, "It's so early, do you have anything else to do?"
Yun Chi said softly, "I will send you back to the palace, and then go to the meeting hall."
Huayan laughed, "You don't need to see her off, I've already returned to the palace, I'll just go in by myself." Before he could finish speaking, Yun Chi had already picked her up by the waist and got out of the carriage.
Huayan nestled in Yunchi's arms, watching him carry her into the hanging flower door, and pushed him, "Why are you so clingy?"
Yun Chi smiled and looked down at her, "I don't like me clinging to you"
Huayan stretched out her hand and pinched him, "Of course not." After saying that, she laughed and looked at him brightly, "His Royal Highness is wise and wise, I am afraid that I will be scolded as a evil concubine in the future."
Yun Chi looked down at her as he walked, "No matter how I look at it, I don't look like a witch."
With a charming smile, "There is no writing on the demon girl's face."
Yun Chi laughed.
The two returned to Phoenix West Garden while talking and laughing.
Hua Yan talked with Mrs. Jing Guo for a long time, and she was indeed a little tired. After returning to the room, she drank the medicine and lay down on the bed. Seeing Yun Chi sitting by the bed and staying with her, she was amused, " Has anyone said recently that His Royal Highness is not doing his job properly?"
Yun Chi stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead, "I haven't missed anything in the court affairs, who dares to say that?"
Huayan smiled lightly, stretched out her hand to gently touch his face, and said softly, "Go, I'll take a nap, and I hope you've already returned home when I wake up."
Yun Chi was a little amused at his strong reluctance to leave her, and wanted to tie her around his belt. He stretched out his hand and rubbed the space between his brows, and said softly, "Accompany me to the meeting hall tomorrow."
Hua Yan smiled and nodded, "Okay, I will accompany you to the meeting hall tomorrow."
Only then did Yun Chi bow his head and kiss her, stood up, straightened his clothes, and left the room.
After Yunchi left, Huayan closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
If there is any disturbance in the capital, the whole city will know about it, not to mention the news that the Crown Princess went to Jingguo Mansion as a guest, and the news that His Highness the Crown Prince also went to Jingguo Mansion to accompany Jingguo Mansion after the morning court, is even more like a pebble. It was like throwing it into a green lake, and it immediately stirred up waves.
The news of Huayan and Lu Zhiling Babai's friendship spread like wildfire.
The mansions of the nobles in Beijing immediately received a signal that they could no longer treat Duke Jing's mansion the same way as before. Today's Duke Jing's mansion has the bridge of friendship between Lu Zhiling and Huayan Babai. For Donggong, it is considered half-in-law.
No one thought that Lu Zhiling would make friends with Huayan Babai. Earlier, because Huayan broke off the engagement with His Highness the Crown Prince, she dragged Jingguo's mansion into the water. Anyone with a discerning eye knew it, and some people even took pleasure in watching Jingguo's mansion make jokes, but now, Both surprised and envious.
Especially Zhao Zaifu's mansion, Mrs. Zhao was very sad and angry when she heard the news.
For a long time, the four princes of Southern Chu, Yun Chi, Su Zizhan, An Shuli, and Lu Zhiling, she and Zhao Zaifu chose Zhao Qingxi's son-in-law, first chose Yunchi, Yunchi did not choose Zhao Qingxi as his concubine, but after choosing Huayan, She and Zhao Zaifu fell in love with Su Zizhan, and after Su Zizhan disappeared for no reason, she and Zhao Zaifu aimed at An Shuli again. They didn't expect An Shuli to be counted on, and they were harmed by it. However, they never considered Lu Zhiling .
A few days ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent millions of soldiers and horses to the Southwest Territory.
When it was handed over to Lu Zhiling, the government and the public were shocked. They didn't understand why His Royal Highness trusted Lu Zhiling and Jingguo's mansion so much. They had been speculating all the time. Now, after the news of Huayan and Lu Zhiling's eight worship friends really spread, they suddenly realized that Lu Zhiling and Jingguo The government is now half of the royal family.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a deep affection for the Crown Princess, and Lu Zhiling also soared into the sky, holding a heavy soldier in his hand.
Mrs. Zhao felt very uncomfortable. Zhao's mansion got this piece of land, after all the calculations, she felt that there was no such thing as the past. After hearing the news, compared with the dignitaries and laughter of Jingguo's mansion, the Zhao mansion seemed to be full of joy. desolate.
She sat in front of Zhao Zaifu's window and wiped her tears with a juan handkerchief, "Master, all the private treasuries you have accumulated over the years were taken away by An Shuli to deal with floods at the mouth of the Chuan River, and even our Xi'er dowry was donated. What do you ask my concubine to give Xi'er as a dowry in the future?"
Zhao Zaifu also vomited in his heart. He never thought that only one marriage would not make the calculation, so he emptied the Zhao Mansion all at once, but he calculated An Shuli to be a certainty, and was caught by Princess Anyang. If it hadn't been for Yunchi's mediation, Talking about Princess Anyang's private affairs, then if this matter spreads out, it will definitely bring down the prestige of Zhao Mansion's lintel. Therefore, in comparison, losing money is better than losing the lintel.
Zhao Zaifu sighed, and said to Mrs. Zhao, "Don't worry about it. Xi'er won't be able to find a suitable family for a while. Don't you still have a few dowry shops? According to Princess Anyang's strong support for An Shuli's water control, the news of that incident will ruin Xi'er."
Mrs. Zhao also understands this truth, but she still feels very uncomfortable, "Why is Duke Jing's mansion so lucky?"
Zhao Zaifu thought of Duke Jing as a tough guy who only knew how to beat and kill, especially Lu Zhiling, who was a single descendant who had been a dandy since he was a child. Great merit, now he is still stationed with millions of soldiers and horses, and has truly become a mansion with a lintel.
He was also depressed, but he still said, "Since ancient times, those who hold heavy soldiers in their hands have had a good end. You don't have to envy Duke Jing's mansion. Let's see in the future that the relatives of the emperor are not so easy to be."
Mrs. Zhao thinks about it too. Zhao Zaifu's words made her feel more comfortable. She wiped away her tears and asked bitterly, "Xi'er has been shutting herself in the room for the past two days. I am afraid that she will get bored. Sick."
Zhao Zaifu thought about it for a while, but there was no good idea, and said, "Give her some time, Xi'er is smart, and she will figure it out. How can a person's life go smoothly all the time? In my life, I have experienced many twists and turns. Now, isn't it still in the position of the prime minister?"
Mrs. Zhao nodded, "Master is right."
After the two finished talking, the steward came to report, "Master, Mr. Seventh Cheng is here."
Zhao Zaifu's face darkened, "I invited him yesterday, but he didn't come, but he did come today." After finishing speaking, he said in a deep voice, "Let him in." After giving the order, he said to Mrs. Zhao, "Go and see Xi'er, I will See Cheng Zi smile."
Madam Zhao nodded and left the inner room.
Not long after, the housekeeper brought Cheng Zixiao to see Zhao Zaifu.
Cheng Zixiao didn't wear a top hat today, and he walked slowly in a lake-colored robe, three points suave, seven points romantic. He happened to meet Mrs. Zhao at the door, and Cheng Zi smiled and greeted Mrs. Zhao with a neither humble nor overbearing smile.
These years, although Zhao Zaifu supported Cheng Zixiao, Cheng Zixiao had never come to Beijing. It was the first time Mrs. Zhao saw Cheng Zixiao. Seeing his handsome appearance, she couldn't help being taken aback. The smile on her face became more apparent, and she stopped in her tracks. He asked with a smile, "Are you the seventh son of the Cheng family in the North?"
Cheng Zi smiled and straightened up, and said with a smile, "Exactly."
Mrs. Zhao said with a smile, "Master has always praised you, saying that you are quite talented in business and smart, which is very rare."
Cheng Zi smiled lightly, "Thank you Zaifu for your compliment."
Mrs. Zhao waved her hand, "Go quickly, Zaifu is waiting for you."
Cheng Zixiao stepped through the threshold and entered the inner room. When he saw Zhao Zaifu, he made a vain salute and laughed, "When Zaifu asked for the medicine of charm, I told Zaifu that the medicine of charm is not easy to use, especially if it is used On the body of a wise man. It is a pity that Zaifu did not listen to my advice."
Zhao Zaifu recalled what Cheng Zixiao had said at the time, sighed deeply, and waved his hands, "What's the point of saying these things now? The geese were pecked in the eyes by the geese, and the waves behind the Yangtze River pushed the waves ahead. You shouldn't provoke the Anyang Palace." After the words fell, he waved, "Sit down."
Cheng Zi smiled and sat down.
Zhao Zaifu looked at him and asked, "I heard the purpose of the Crown Princess seeing you yesterday?"
Cheng Zixiao already guessed Zhao Zaifu's purpose for looking for him, and said with a smile, "Zaifu guesses."
