A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

"Why is the yard so noisy outside?" Princess Jing sat under the tree in the inner yard, and when she heard the laughter from outside, she frowned and put it down.

"Going back to the princess, it seems that it's with the princess Huai, do you want the slaves to go?"

"No need." Princess Jing shook her head: "Let her go."

Rumors abounded in the palace, and the elder sister-in-law and a few little palace maids forced their faces to laugh and make fun of bitterness. Why should she be a villain.

A locust flower fell on the page, she picked it up and laughed.

"No, no." Princess An panted while leaning on the table: "Fifth brother and sister, you are running too fast, even if you grow a few more legs, you won't be able to catch up with you."

"I told you earlier, don't run faster than the fifth siblings, come over to drink tea and rest for a while." Princess Huai poured tea and greeted Jiuzhu and Princess An to sit and rest for a while.

"Thank you, Sister-in-law." Princess An picked up the tea and poured it vigorously, turned her head to look at the next door several times, and hesitated for a moment to suppress the doubts in her heart.

"Don't worry, the third brother and sister are always happy, no matter what you do, she won't come here." Princess Huai held the teapot and helped her continue the tea: "Although sister-in-law is fine, but you are here to play, no one dares Let's talk about it."

Even if the three families liked the quiet again, he would come and sit for a while when it was so lively in the past. Now there are only a few rumors in the palace, and the husband and wife can't avoid it, which is too ruthless.

"The third sister-in-law is happy, and the three like to be lively, so it's better not to disturb each other." Jiu Zhu smiled while holding the teacup: "If it wasn't for the wind today, there would be paper kites."

"Don't mention the paper kites. The last time I put them back, the mother-in-law said that she was young and courageous and dared to put paper kites in the palace. If it was placed in a special period, Sanhui would be caught as an undercover agent in the palace." Said At this point, Princess An herself laughed first: "Then the mother-in-law said that anyway, she started to put the paper kites in a few days."

"It's better now, the world is peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. These people who live in the palace don't have to be careful about everything." Princess Huai sighed: "The father and mother are generous people, otherwise..."

Since the rumors about His Highness's death spread, she has been very uneasy, afraid that the father and the emperor will hate his husband and wife, and that the queen will take advantage of this opportunity to suppress His Highness to the ground.

But all these worries fell down after Jiu Zhu came to the door in person.

If the queen really intended to deal with him, she would not allow the fifth siblings to behave today.

For the future crown princess, Jiuzhu's words and deeds, when other people come in the harem, represent the meaning of the queen. By standing here, she is telling everyone in the harem that His Royal Highness is the biological son of the father, and the rest are all absurd rumors.

The world only knows the icing on the cake, and how many people are willing to give charcoal in the snow?

She kept this affection in her heart. If she only mentioned the word "thank you", it would be superficial.

"Concubine Xu is here."

The little eunuch wearing a blue robe outside the courtyard sang aloud, and Princess Huai just had time to stand up from the stone bench when Concubine Xu walked in in a hurry.

"Mother concubine." Princess Huai stepped forward, bowed her knees and bowed to Concubine Xu.

"I heard from a distance that you are very lively here. Princess Wei'er, you are still in the mood to fight with the palace maid at this moment..."

"Go past Concubine Xu."

From Qinglai, the coldness on Concubine Xu's face was instantly replaced by a polite smile. She stretched out her hand to help Jiuzhu: "It turns out that Concubine Chen is also here, please get up quickly."

Only then did she notice that in addition to Princess Chen, Princess An was also there. At such a critical juncture, the second daughter-in-law and the fifth daughter-in-law actually came here?

In this world, there are still princes and concubines in the palace who don't fall into the trap, but instead send charcoal in the snow?

Even though she was helping her own son, Concubine Xu couldn't help but wonder if this imperial concubine had a bad mind?

If she is a prince concubine, with such a good opportunity, if she does not take the opportunity to kill the emperor's eldest son, she will marry into the royal family for nothing.

Just as she was thinking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, she turned her head, King Chen and King An walked in across the door, King An and King Chen chatted non-stop, King Chen had a sullen face, showing no joy or anger.

"Concubine Xu?" An Wang consciously took a step forward in his relationship with his fifth brother, and when Concubine Xu was there, he bowed to her in a good mood.

King Chen raised his eyelids and cupped his hands towards her, his attitude was not bad.

King Huai came out of the small kitchen, Yun Duqing really did as the five younger siblings said, rushed over before noon, squeezed out a warm smile, and exchanged salutes with a younger brother: "I know you are coming, today my elder brother has collected the fine wine for many years. I've taken them all out, and I'll have a few more drinks later."

Concubine Xu, who was forgotten by her son, coughed lightly, the smile on Wang Huai's face faded slightly, and she respectfully bowed to Concubine Xu.

The mother and son were standing together, and Jiu Zhu found that King Huai looked more like his father, but he had no resemblance to Concubine Xu.

Concubine Xu's skin is fair, and Wang Huai's skin is inclined to the "color" of wheat. Concubine Xu's eyebrows and eyes are delicate and gentle, while Wang Huai's eyebrows and eyes are sharp and slightly windy.

"I'm here today because I miss you. Since your brothers are gathering together, I won't disturb your interest." Concubine Xu looked at Yun Duqing very complicatedly. For the future prince, he came here to relieve the eldest son at this time. What?

King Huai was silent for a moment, but did not hold back, but said, "My son will send you off."

The mother and son were silent all the way, they walked out of the gate of Zhangliu Palace, and everything was quiet. Concubine Xu turned to King Huai: "You can do it yourself."

"Mother concubine, my son knows what he is going to do." King Huai bowed to the end, and he put on Concubine Xu's skirt: "Mother concubine is not in good health, so you shouldn't think too much. Please rest in the palace."

"Head up."

King Huai raised his head, Concubine Xu slapped her

his face.

"Many thanks for the teachings of Concubine Xu, Concubine Mu, walk slowly, and my son will retire." In front of the palace staff, Concubine Xu slapped him, and the always good-faced King Huai sank his face, bowed to Concubine Xu hastily, and turned around. Just go.

"Stop!" Concubine Xu didn't expect that King Huai would dare to use this attitude to herself: "Did you let you go?"

"Mother concubine, there are guests in the yard of Erchen waiting to be entertained, farewell."

With the back of her son leaving, Concubine Xu took a deep breath, this trash son is nothing like her!

When King Huai came back, everyone noticed that there was a red mark on his cheek, but everyone did not ask questions, and sat down around the table in a lively manner.

"Brother, where is your good wine hidden, don't you take it out and let you taste it." The second prince, Prince An, was still thinking about the good wine, he tapped the cup, and made a ding ding dong dong sound.

"It's fortunate that you have already become a king, otherwise you will feel better if you are knocked on the cup and bowl with chopsticks by the ceremonial official." King Huai gave a few high-fives, and the eunuch brought a jar of wine.

As soon as the wine jar was opened, the aroma of wine overflowed.

"Brother, you're not being kind, such a good thing has been hidden and never taken out." Wang An sniffed his nose, couldn't wait to scoop up a cup, raised his head and drank it to taste.

"Good wine!" His eyes lit up, and he quickly scooped up a glass and handed it to King Chen and King Huai.

"Brother knows why you are here today." King Huai stood up and raised his glass: "As the saying goes, if you are in trouble, you should drink three glasses first."

After three cups of wine, King Huai's eyes were clear and bright: "This cup is for the second brother and the second sister, the fifth brother and the fifth sister, the eldest brother's personality is a jerk. There are things that I did not do well in the past, please bear with me."

"Big brother is serious." King Chen held his wrist, held up the wine glass and touched his wine glass, and then drank the wine in the glass first: "My brother, you can make any noise when you close the door, but don't let outsiders make a fuss. Make irresponsible remarks, otherwise what kind of face do other princes have?"

An Wang-like, followed by drinking a glass of wine: "That's what it means."

"Don't patronize drinking and eating." Princess An pulled King La'an's sleeve.

In King Chen's bowl, there were several more dishes that he liked to eat, all of which Jiuzhu secretly gave him.

With a younger brother, Wang Huai secretly glanced at Princess Huai from the corner of his eye.

Princess Huai threw a piece of goosefoot into his bowl impatiently, and when he looked at this piece of goosefoot, he felt grateful.

At the end of the day, the original wife is still good to him.

"This wine is a bit strong, don't drink too much." Prince An gave Princess An a bowl of soup: "Drink this to keep healthy."

"The tendons are soft and glutinous, come and feed you." King Chen clamped the tendons, and after blowing it cool, he fed it into Jiuzhu's mouth: "Is it delicious?"

"Delicious." Jiuzhu nodded with a smile: "I still need it."

Then King Huai went to the fifth brother, who had always been arrogant.

He was on the left, and he didn't know what his princess liked to eat, so he took a pearl chicken leg and put it in the bowl of Princess Huai.

Princess Huai bowed her head to the contents of the bowl, what does Yunliu'an mean?

The other princes gave the prince concubine either a scoop of health soup or a favorite dish. He would rather give her a lump of seasoned ginger? !

Why, laughing at her not as fresh as a younger sibling?

She grinned through gritted teeth, picked Jiang up and stuffed it into King Huai's mouth: "Thank you, my lord, for your kindness, you can try it too."

He was clearly holding a pearl chicken leg, how could it be ginger? !

Wang Huai wanted to vomit, but Princess Huai pressed her chin: "Don't vomit, swallow it."

King Huai: "..."

The world has changed, and although his concubine still cares about him, she has also become fierce.

He turned his head to the fifth sibling, remembering the scene where she picked up Sun Caiyao, and couldn't help but wonder, the princess must have learned badly from the fifth sibling, right?

"Big brother likes to eat ginger?" King Chen smiled, picked up a piece of ginger from the bowl and put it in King Huai's bowl: "Come on, eat more."

Eat well, stare at his daughter-in-law's "wife" for what?

"Fifth brother's wishes, don't let it go." Princess Huai put this piece of ginger into Wang Huai's mouth: "It's delicious, not enough."

Wang Huai's eyes widened.

Princess Huai lowered her eyelids and whispered, "I have been married to the lord for a few years. There is no credit or hard work. If the lord loves you dearly, he won't dislike the food he gave you, right?"

King Huai swallowed the spicy ginger down his throat with tears in his eyes.

A smile appeared on Princess Huai's face, and the five younger siblings were right.

Women, be kind to yourself.

Treat yourself well, and men will naturally listen.

Look, now Yun Liu'an listens more.

"Princess." King Huai picked out another pearl bird leg and put it into her bowl: "I've been careful this time, it's definitely not ginger."

"I didn't expect eldest brother to be quite intimidated." Jiuzhu whispered in King Chen's ear: "I still think, he is not good to eldest sister-in-law."

"Men, you can teach me if you don't listen." King Chen replied smoothly.

"Oh." Jiuzhu nodded thoughtfully: "Understood."

King Chen snapped back to his senses and turned his head to her.

What do you unserstand?
