Huayan didn't take Zhao Zaifu's birthday banquet seriously, and slept until the sun was high before waking up.
Qiuyue heard the movement, opened the door and entered the room, and saw that Huayan was still lying on the lazy bed after waking up, she said speechlessly while picking up the curtain, "Miss, it's getting late, if you don't get up to wash and dress, you will miss it." It's time for the Zhao residence's birthday banquet to begin."
Huayan stretched her waist and said comfortably, "His Royal Highness is gone."
Qiuyue shook her head and said in a low voice, "His Royal Highness has been waiting for you to have breakfast together in the painting hall in the outhouse, and it has been more than an hour. I see you have been getting up and reading a book."
Huayan just sat up and glanced at the sunlight coming in from the window, probably it was almost time.
Qiuyue walked to the closet, rummaged through the clothes, and asked, "Miss, it is said that almost all the people in the capital went to Zhao Zaifu's birthday banquet today. This is the first time you have appeared in front of so many people in the mansion of nobles. You have to dress carefully, as you say." What is good?"
Huayan curled her lips, "It's not my father's birthday party, just dress up and go about it as usual."
Qiuyue paused, turned around and said, "This is not good, after all, your identity is there, so don't be underestimated."
Huayan snorted, disapproving, "I am well-dressed and undressed, and this is the same identity. If someone can take it away, then the relationship will be better, and I don't have to torment myself." After finishing speaking, she urged her, "Whatever Just find one to wear."
Qiuyue was speechless, turned around and thought for a while, picked out one of them, and gave it to Huayan.
Huayan saw that it was the blue brocade silk dress she used to wear, but the style was a little more complicated, so she didn't say anything, and put it on happily.
Qiuyue found two more jade ornaments and helped Huayan comb her hair.
After tidying up, Huayan took a look at herself in the mirror, she was a little heavier than usual, this kind of attire would definitely not be enough for Zhao Zaifu's birthday banquet today.
She walked out of the room slowly.
Yun Chi was waiting in the painting hall, sitting idle at the table. There were several plates of pastries and a pot of tea on the table. The pastries were neat and apparently untouched. Yun Chi held the scroll in one hand and the cup of tea in the other, while reading, While drinking tea.
Hearing the movement of the bead curtain, Yun Chi raised his head to look at her.
Huayan Jianyunchi was also dressed as usual, wearing a blue brocade robe, a jade belt around her waist, and a jade pendant with a dragon pattern hanging on her waist. She didn't pay attention to the grandeur of Zhao Zaifu's birthday banquet.
She raised her eyebrows at him, "His Royal Highness will go to court in the morning. I am very lazy, so I like to sleep in. You should not wait for me to have breakfast in the future. In addition, you don't have to go back to the house at noon to meet me." Let's have dinner together, I won't go to bed too early at night, just eat dinner together. In case you have to accommodate me, let alone whether I feel unbearable, if things go on like this, if people know about it, wouldn't it be to impeach me for ruining the prince I will not bear the crime of His Highness's body."
Yun Chi laughed, put down the scroll and teacup, and nodded obediently, "That's fine, you did wake up too late."
Hua Yan sat opposite him, "I am not His Royal Highness, I don't need to deal with government affairs, so I can sleep until I wake up naturally every day."
Yun Chi looked at her, "You really don't care about the Zhongfu of the East Palace."
Hua Yan raised her eyebrows, "What do you think?"
Yun Chiyu rubbed his brows and sighed, "Forget it, you don't want to worry about it, let Steward Fu take care of it for now. We haven't got married yet, so it's okay for him to take over. After the wedding, some things , he can't replace it."
Huayan scoffed secretly, there would be no big marriage at all, but she didn't bother to talk about it.
Nanny Fang brought someone to bring breakfast, and the two ate quietly and peacefully.
Yun Chi got up early, seemed to be really hungry, and ate a lot, Hua Yan also ate a lot, the two of them were not in a hurry, after breakfast, they walked out of the room together slowly.
Mother Fang stood at the door and asked, "His Royal Highness, do you want me to order some people to follow the princess and Miss Qiuyue alone? I am afraid that the servant will not be able to take good care of the princess. After all, neither the princess nor Miss Qiuyue has ever been to the Zhao residence."
Yun Chi nodded and said to her, "Just bring a few people along with you."
Mother Fang hurriedly agreed.
Hua Yan just wanted to say that she didn't need it, but Yun Chi had already made arrangements, and Nanny Fang immediately chose a few people to follow her, so she had no choice but to give up.
Not to mention that she has never been to the Zhao Mansion, even if she has never been to a wolf's den or a tiger's den, she is not afraid.
Butler Fu had already prepared the cart, packed six hundred thousand taels of silver into six large boxes, and carried them onto the carriage.
Walking out of the Chuihua Gate, the two got into the carriage. The guard of honor of the Eastern Palace was already ready and set off for the Eastern Palace.
Hua Yan never had a place to lie down and never sat down. After getting into the carriage, seeing that the carriage was spacious, she picked up a book that was in the carriage, lay down on the side and opened it to read.
Seeing this, Yun Chi couldn't help but laugh, "You've been sleeping for a whole day until three poles in the sun before waking up, your bones are so weak that you're too tired to even sit down."
Huayan snorted, "Yes, I am no different from a puddle of mud now, why don't His Royal Highness think about it, throw me out of the car and don't meet anyone."
Yun Chi said slowly, "Today Zhao Zaifu's mansion must be very lively, you are definitely not willing to go."
Huayan covered her face with a book and fell silent.
At this time, Ronghua Street was not so congested, and the carriage went all the way to Zhao Zaifu's mansion.
As soon as the carriage in the Eastern Palace appeared, someone sang loudly, "The prince is driving, the princess is driving."
Originally, the noise from the Zhao Mansion could be heard half a street away, but after the singing sounded, the high-walled inner courtyard of the Zhao Mansion suddenly fell silent.
Huayan thought to herself, Yunchi's majesty as a prince really frightened the government and the public, but she frowned immediately and said to Yunchi, "I'm not a princess, this singing is a bit too serious."
Yun Chi said calmly, "Sooner or later is the same, there is no difference."
Huayan scolded Yun Chi to death again in her heart. Throughout the ages, she has never seen it before, without three matchmakers and six hires, eight lifts of a big sedan chair, three worships to heaven and earth, just give her the title of Crown Princess in such a grandiose way that she can't be taken off. .
The carriage stopped, and there was another voice of welcome from outside, "Welcome to His Royal Highness, Crown Princess"
Hua Yan heard the sound, obviously there were quite a few people from the Zhao family who came out to greet Yun Chi, she lay still.
Yun Chi looked at her, stretched out his hand and pulled her up, and said, "You should know that male and female guests should sit at separate tables. The emperor's grandmother is getting old, and she was frightened by you the day before yesterday, so she won't come to join us today." This excitement, among all the female relatives, your status is the highest. Except for the father, you don’t need to be greeted by others, just wait for someone to greet you, including Zhao Zaifu and his wife. Now we are late, after entering the mansion , presumably it won't be too long and the banquet will start immediately. That is to say, if you are not with me, if you need anything, just let Nanny Fang know."
Huayan smiled "chih", "Understood, does His Royal Highness usually tell people such mother-in-law like this?"
Yun Chi laughed angrily, "What kind of temperament are you? You are so bold and reckless in front of the emperor's grandmother and father, but my instructions are superfluous." After saying that, he grabbed her hand, lifted the curtain and got out of the car.
Huayan struggled, and Yunchi held tightly, she couldn't break free, so she could only let him drag her out of the car.
At the first sight, the gate of the Zhao Mansion is tall and grand, with two magnificent stone lions, and a gold-plated plaque showing its unique status in the court.
Inside the gate of the courtyard, a large group of people knelt down, numbering in the hundreds.
Some wore official robes, some looked like palace people, some wore brocade clothes, and some were dressed as servants of the Zhao family.
After Yunchi got out of the car, he stood in front of the door holding Huayan's hand, and smiled at an old man in his fifties who was currently wearing an official robe, "Excuse me, Mr. Zhao, I'm late, so you can miss it." it's time"
The man quickly shook his head, cupped his hands with a respectful smile, "It's not too late, the crown prince came just in time, the banquet has not yet started, and the emperor has just arrived, the eldest brother is talking with the emperor, and told the old minister to wait for the crown prince here."
Yun Chi nodded with a smile, "Father arrived earlier than me." After saying that, he turned his head to Hua Yan and said with a smile, "This is Zhao Zaifu's younger brother, the official residence of the Tongzheng Envoy."
Hua Yan took a look and nodded, Zhao Zaifu's younger brother, a third-rank official, it can be seen that the Zhao family is truly prosperous and prosperous.
Hearing the sound, the man looked at Hua Yan, only to feel that the woman in front of him was radiant and beautiful, and when his eyes fell, he realized that Yun Chi was holding her hand tightly. "This must be Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess who has been rumored for a long time. You are very polite, old minister."
Huayan smiled lightly, casually, "Your Excellency Zhao, you don't need to be too polite. As a princess, I don't know how long I can sit, so you don't need to be polite."
The man's heart skipped a beat again, and he looked at Yunchi.
Yun Chi reached out and tapped Huayan's forehead, and the tips of his jade fingers curled up slightly coolly. He looked pampered, and his voice was gentle and smiling, "Yan'er is naughty again, of course, if I am in power, you will be the prince for a day." Concubine, there is absolutely no change."
