Chapter 7: Phoenix West Court

Views:

Steward Fu didn't dare to delay, he trotted from the study all the way to the north gate, and when he arrived at the north gate, he squatted on the ground, clutching his stomach, panting heavily.

For many years, he has never run like this.

Huayan heard his footsteps from far to near, to near and near, almost out of breath, she opened her sleeves, and looked at him with a smile, "Housekeeper, why are you running in such a hurry? Don't be afraid to wait."

Butler Fu stood up quickly, and bowed his hands respectfully to Huayan, "Although the princess is not afraid of waiting, this old slave dares not keep you waiting." After finishing speaking, he said exactly what Yun Chi had told him.

Huayan already knew that Yunchi was not easy to get along with, even if she brought a fierce marriage lottery, he would not say that he would quit the engagement and change to the princess. Simply because she hadn't expressed her hope, she couldn't be said to be disappointed. So, after listening to Steward Fu's words, she nodded, "Anyway, His Royal Highness is golden and precious, and I am different from her. Since he doesn't care, then I have nothing to care about. , there is no good result, if he doesn’t believe it, he can’t blame me, you should be a witness.”

Butler Fu blushed, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said quickly, "No, Your Highness and you are a match made in heaven. When the Queen Mother ordered people to draw up the roster, she checked everyone's date of birth."

Hua Yan stood up with a smile, "Speaking of this matter, when the Royal Painter went to Lin'an Huadu, it was my great-grandmother who reported the Gengchen to me. My great-grandmother is quite old, so confused, even I Sometimes the name is called wrong, it is really hard to say if the Gengchen News reported it correctly."

The sweat that had just been wiped off by Butler Fu came out again, and he didn't dare to continue to answer the conversation. He said respectfully, "Prince Princess, I will take you to resettle. Your courtyard was cleaned up two months ago. gone."

Huayan nodded, and shouted to the outside, "Qiuyue, come in, you have some water."

Qiuyue quickly ran in from the door, and gave a deep salute to Steward Fu, "Hello, Chief Steward, my servant Qiuyue is Miss's maid."

Housekeeper Fu was startled, looked at Qiuyue carefully, smiled on his face, and said kindly, "Miss Qiuyue, although the princess is visiting the East Palace now, she will be the mistress of the East Palace in the future. From now on, you will accompany me The Crown Princess lives in the East Palace, if you need anything, just ask the old servant."

Qiuyue nodded again and again, "I know this, so I will rely on the big housekeeper to support me from now on."

Butler Fu said with a smile, "Don't dare to support, this East Palace has more rules than Lin'an Flower Mansion, but you are a person close to the Crown Princess, as long as you don't make big mistakes, you can live a very easy life."

Qiuyue nodded, took a look at Huayan, and thought to herself that she could only pray that the young lady would stop being a monster. Since there was no other way, she could marry the prince safely. Otherwise, I'm afraid that under her self-destruction city wall and self-digging grave, both of their lives will be here.

Butler Fu led the two into the East Palace.

The East Palace is very large, with countless courtyards, many pavilions and palaces, and the courtyard is so deep that you can't see the end.

Although the Lin'an Hua Family occupies more than half of Lin'an City, Huayan still feels that the Huafu's courtyard is nothing compared to the Eastern Palace's grandeur.

Steward Fu said respectfully to Huayan as he walked, "The residence arranged for you by Your Highness is Phoenix Garden. There are two palaces in Phoenix Garden, which live next to each other. One is Phoenix East Garden and the other is Phoenix West Garden. Your Highness lives in East Garden. , you live in Xiyuan."

Huayan raised her eyebrows, "Who lived in Phoenix Xiyuan before?"

Steward Fu shook his head, "It was originally built for the future crown princess to live in. Before the crown prince became a concubine, it has been vacant and uninhabited. Now that you come to Beijing, His Highness ordered someone to pack it out for you to live in."

Huayan nodded. She lived in Phoenix West Garden before marrying Yunchi. This position is really stable.

Walking through the covered bridges and waterside pavilions, bypassing several mountains, stones and green lakes, after walking about three cups of tea, I came to a courtyard gate. The plaque on the gate reads Phoenix West Garden.

Hua Yan took a look at the plaque, and followed Steward Fu into Xiyuan.

There was a group of people waiting in the courtyard in the West Garden, and when they saw Huayan approaching, they all knelt on the ground and said, "I pay my respects to the Crown Princess."

Huayan scanned around with her eyes, there were about forty or fifty people.

Steward Fu stopped in his tracks and said respectfully, "Crown Princess, these people are carefully selected by the old slave to serve you. If you think there are enough people, the old slave will send some more."

Huayan felt that it was more than enough, it was too much. When she was at Hua's house in Lin'an, Qiuyue was the only one in her Huayan Garden. However, the East Palace is no different than Huafu, and the rules are as big as the sky. Living in the East Palace will be boring in the future. It is better to have more people, so that it can be more lively. She nodded, "Enough."

Seeing that Huayan had no objection, steward Fu immediately ordered those people, "The princess concubine came from a long distance, and I will take care of you soon."

The road is hard, everyone is performing their duties, so hurry up and wait on them, so as not to make mistakes. "

Everyone agrees to do so.

Steward Fu led Huayan into the inner hall, and after introducing her, he said respectfully, "Crown Princess, you should take a bath, eat, and rest first, and the old slave will answer His Highness. If you need it, just order it." people."

Hua Yan nodded with a smile, "I'm sorry to trouble the butler, you can go to work quickly."

Steward Fu left Phoenix Xiyuan, and before he left, he explained to Nanny Fang, the steward of Xiyuan, and after Nanny Fang nodded one by one, he went to answer Yunchi with confidence.

Thinking about it on the way, it seems that the princess is very talkative and considerate, she is not as tricky as the rumors, how could she arrange so many things so that His Highness spent more than half of his time in the past year when he was busy with court affairs What about her, so that, after he knew that the Crown Princess came to the East Palace, he really put up all his energy to treat her, and he didn't dare to neglect or be sloppy in the slightest.

After Huayan bathed, changed clothes, groomed, and ate, it was already two hours later.

It was still early when she came, and before noon, when she was lying on the bed, it was already west at noon.

Qiuyue has seen so many rules in the East Palace, and the ostentation is so grand that there are four or five people around her when she combs Huayan's hair. Although she had made mental preparations in advance, after actually living in with Huayan, she still felt that she had to be more careful in the future, and she must not just make mistakes, otherwise she, the only maid brought by the young lady, would be difficult to do.

Hua Yan felt at ease, she didn't feel any discomfort, after being waited on by others, she went to bed sleepy.

Qiuyue was by her side, and after everyone had retreated, she whispered, "Miss, I didn't see Zheng Erhu, is he not in the East Palace?"

Hua Yan yawned, "Which cell is she supposed to be squatting in?"

Qiuyue was startled, "Could it be that His Highness punished him?"

Huayan closed her eyes, found a comfortable sleeping position, and said, "Compared to Donggong, I think he would rather stay in the cell." After saying that, she reached out and patted Qiuyue's face, "You are not tired, go and rest Let's go, instead of worrying about him, why not think about where we will go to the capital tomorrow."

The corners of Qiuyue's mouth twitched, "Miss, we walked for a month and a half before entering Beijing, and now we're in the Eastern Palace. We're not familiar with the place. Let's stay in the Eastern Palace tomorrow to familiarize ourselves with the surroundings. You'll have to live in peace for a few days before you bother." "

Huayan snorted, "I didn't see you talking so much before, why are you talking so much about mother-in-law now?"

Qiuyue yelled that she was wronged, and help her lower the curtain helplessly, and left the inner hall.

As a newcomer, Qiuyue naturally couldn't just fall asleep like a beautiful woman. No matter how tired or sleepy she was, she still had to cheer up and chat with the servants who were serving in the West Garden.

The young lady didn't think so, she couldn't be like the young lady, although all these waiters were like dumb gourds, but she always answered others' questions, and it was easy to be respectful and respectful to her, the only maid brought by the crown princess.

After putting Huayan in place, Steward Fu came to Yunchi's study, told him, and repeated Huayan's words verbatim when he heard his reply to the marriage lottery.

After Yun Chi listened, he nodded without saying a word.

Seeing that he didn't give orders, Steward Fu quit the study, and when he stepped out of the room, Yun Chi suddenly said, "Tomorrow morning, tell her about the gift that needs to be prepared for Zhao Zaipu's birthday, and let her arrange it. See what gift to Zhao Zaipu and tell her, don't take it lightly, don't take it too seriously."

Butler Fu paused in his footsteps, suddenly frightened, thinking that the Crown Princess had just arrived today, and His Highness would entrust her with such an important matter. He didn't dare to speculate on His Highness's intentions, so he quickly lowered his hand, "Yes, old slave Let the princess know tomorrow morning."

Yun Chi nodded, and then ordered, "Let all the stewards and servants go to see her tomorrow morning, and give her all the accounts of the accountant. From tomorrow onwards, she will be in charge of the inner courtyard of the Eastern Palace. Let her Take care."

Housekeeper Fu opened his eyes wide in shock, his head was like thunder, he was stunned for a long time before waking up, thinking to himself, the princess entered the mansion today, and she is not familiar with the rules of the environment, so tomorrow she will give her the power of the house, will it be possible? so bullying

How can someone manage a family without being familiar with everything, let alone this huge East Palace Prince's Mansion.

Seeing that Yun Chi's face was calm, he didn't seem to be joking, he opened his mouth, but after all he didn't dare to probe into his words, he quickly bowed his head in response, seeing that he had no other orders, he slowly retreated out of the study room, when the early summer wind blew, Only then did he realize that his back was already wet with a layer of cold sweat.
