A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City - Chapter 75
After having lunch in Mingyue Palace, the husband and wife came out of Mingyue Palace. Wang Chen asked Jiuzhu: “Do you have the habit of taking a lunch break?”
Jiuzhu: “Occasionally, it’s okay not to take a nap.”
“Then go to bed today.” Wang Chen sent Jiuzhu back to the Kylin Palace: “When you wake up, we will go to the Sixth Palace.”
“Will it be too late?” Jiuzhu raised the skirt, “Why don’t you come back to rest after going to the sixth palace of Zhang?”
“They also have the habit of taking a nap.” Wang Chen squeezed her earlobe: “You go to bed first, I’ll call you later.”
Jiuzhu glanced at him and nodded: “Okay.”
“Miss.” The Equinox followed Jiuzhu back to the house, closed the door and whispered: “Why don’t you ask where the prince is going?”
“Why do you want to ask?” Jiuzhu took off the hairpin on her hair bun: “His Royal Highness said, come and wake me up later.”
The vernal equinox was slightly stunned. Although she had a calm personality, she was still uneasy following the young lady to the harem for the first time. I was worried that the young lady would be uncomfortable just like her…
“I’m sorry, miss.” The equinox helped Jiuzhu untie the hairpin: “The slave girl shouldn’t talk too much.”
“Sister Vernal Equinox.” Jiuzhu held her hand: “You have done a good job. If it weren’t for me, you don’t need to accompany me to the palace.”
“What did the young lady say?” The equinox put away the jewelry: “The slave girl was born as a woman and was abandoned by her parents. She became an orphan in the eyes of others. The lady took me homeless because she missed her. Over the years, my wife has kept me full and warm. I don’t have to rush to marry a man who doesn’t know good or bad, like other poor women, and spend my whole life busy and chaotic.”
“Aristocratic women can’t do everything well, let alone my background.” The equinox picked up the comb and combed Jiuzhu’s hair: “Fortunately, the lady and the lady gave me a new way out.”
Sixth-rank female officials, so many ordinary women in the world can’t get things in their dreams.
She is afraid that she is not doing well enough, which will drag the young lady.
“There is still something in the servant’s heart…” The equinox was a little hard to tell. She didn’t know how to ask the young lady and the prince about personal matters, but she was worried that the prince would not care about the young lady.
But she knows one thing, a man cannot be a gentleman on the night of his wedding, unless he is inferior to a beast.
“What’s the matter?” Jiuzhu walked to the edge of the bed and sat down and looked up at her: “Just ask.”
“It’s okay.” The Equinox smiled and shook her head. She didn’t have a good life and asked too many questions, but instead caused trouble: “Miss, go and rest.”
“If you want to ask me, you can continue to ask next time.” Jiuzhu lay down on the bed, his head touched the pillow, and suddenly remembered the little book that His Highness would rather throw under the bed last night than let her read.
She climbed out of the bed, lying on the ground looking for the book under the bed.
“Miss, what are you looking for?” Vernal Equinox lay down beside Jiuzhu: “Be careful not to get your clothes dirty, I’ll look for it.”
“Found it.” Jiu Zhu touched out the little book scattered under the bed, and said with emotion: “The servants of the Kylin Palace are really careful, and they even wipe the bottom of the bed clean.”
“This is your majesty and empress, the wedding room specially prepared for you and the prince, naturally there is no dust.” Seeing that the lady has picked up what she wants, the vernal equinox stood up: “Miss, I’ll go outside to guard, you have something to call I.”
“Yeah.” Jiuzhu got into the bed and opened one of them.
After turning a few pages, she put down the book in a daze, holding her reddish cheeks in both hands.
Perhaps, what she opened was not a book, but the gate of yin and yang of the universe.
In the outer courtyard of the Sixth Palace of Zhang, the three princes had lunch, sitting there, reading books, and playing chess, looking at the gate from time to time.
It’s near, the footsteps are near.
When they saw Wang Chen’s face appeared, there was a reserved smile on his face, but when they found out that Wang Chen had not brought the princess, the reserved smile was a bit unbearable.
What do you mean, when the new wife enters the door, she wants to show her elder brother and sister-in-law. It is the habit of the Yun clan that has persisted for hundreds of years, but it changed when she came to Yunduqing.
“Are the three emperor brothers here?” Yun Duqing strode into the yard as if she didn’t know what her brothers were thinking, “but I just moved out for a day, and I start to miss here.”
Wang Huai was disgusted enough by these words, since I miss it so much, why move back?
Wang An didn’t react too much. He just asked curiously: “Fifth brother, my younger siblings didn’t come with you.”
“I came here just for this.” Wang Chen walked to Wang Huai and sat down: “Brothers have nothing to do recently, right?”
The three princes almost couldn’t help rolling their eyes. They were locked up in the Sixth Palace of Zhang. Even the Lantern Festival went out of the palace at night, they were supervised by Dragon Guards. What else could they do?
“Since the emperor brothers have nothing to do, then I’m not in a hurry.” Wang Chen took a sip of the tea from the eunuch: “Two hours later, I will bring the princess to see you brothers.”
They waited from morning to afternoon, and now he said two hours later?
Two hours later, it was almost dark.
“Fifth brother.” Wang Huai couldn’t help but said: “Women can’t get used to it. The more you get used to, the more pampered it will be very troublesome.”
“She married me and became a princess. Can’t she be spoiled?” Wang Chen looked at Wang Huai in surprise: “Then we are the princes, so there is no face.”
“The fifth brother is right.” Wang An put down his hand for a long time and didn’t turn a few pages of the book: “Let us be the prince, don’t we just want to…”
Wang Huai glared at him, he silently swallowed the words back, but still smiled to express his support for the words of the fifth brother.
“The husband and wife respect each other, and the husband and wife care about the wife, and the wife is gentle and gentle for the husband. This is the long-term way.” Jing Wang came out to make a round of the game: “Both eldest brother and fifth brother make sense.”
As soon as the voice fell, I saw Yun Yanze and Sun Caiyao coming together, behaving close, like a model royal couple.
“Fourth brother and sister-in-law, you are here just right, so that will save me from looking for you in the yard.” Wang Chen looked up at the two people: “I will come with the princess and concubine later in the evening. Please take care of the fourth brother and sister-in-law.
“Fifth brother and fifth younger sibling are married on the first day, it doesn’t matter if you come later.” Sun Caiyao looked at Yun Duqing, who was dressed in red, slightly lost.
She was married to her ideal highness, Ming Jiuzhu and Chen Wang were also very good.
At least, better than the ending in her dreams.
“Oh.” Wang Huai seemed to have finally figured it out, and looked at Wang Chen with winking eyebrows: “Newlywed Yaner, the affection is strong, I understand that I can sleep a little longer.”
Wang Chen’s face sank: “Brother, if you have something useless in your mind, your head will fall off your neck easily.”
After being shaken by his younger brother in front of so many brothers, Wang Huai’s face was a bit unbearable.
“I’m young and ignorant, but I don’t make fun of the eldest brother and sister-in-law.” Chen Wang said that if you turn your face, you turn your face, so that you can remember the other person, so you definitely don’t hold yourself back.
“Big brother is older than me. When you say something, you should be more cautious.” Wang Chen bowed his head slightly and looked condescendingly at Wang Huai who was sitting beside the chessboard: “Big brother, do you think your brother is right?”
Wang Huai was stunned, he saw a sharp oppressive breath in Yun Duqing’s eyes.
When did Yun Duqing, the favorite cock-fighting cockfighter Yun Duqing, have such a momentum?
“You’re right.” Wang Huai concealed his shock in his heart, and smiled on his face: “The eldest brother just didn’t speak properly, the fifth brother don’t take it to heart.”
“It’s okay.” Chen Wang chuckled and stood up straight: “I believe that Big Brother will not make this kind of mistake again in the future.”
“Fifth brother, eldest brother?” Wang An threw down the book and looked at the two in confusion: “What are you talking about?”
“It’s nothing, talk to the eldest brother about the principles of life.” Wang Chen looked at him: “Second brother also wants to talk together?”
“No need.” Wang An immediately refused.
Your life is too serious, I don’t want to participate.
Jing Wang glanced over the reluctant Wang Huai, and buried his head lower.
“Thank you elder brothers for your understanding, and my brother will say goodbye first.”
The princes looked at Wang Chen’s departure, and no one wanted to speak.
If it’s not that you can’t afford it, who wants to be considerate of him?
“Eldest brother, fifth brother has always had such a personality, and now there are mothers and queens…” Jing Wang comforted: “Don’t take these things to your heart, it will ruin the friendship between our brothers.”
Wang Huai glanced at him and sneered.
The friendship between the royal brothers is the funniest joke.
People are full of spirits at happy events. On the way back from Zhang Sixth Palace to Kylin Palace, the walls of the palace are as red as blood jade, the green tiles are as crisp as green leaves, and the birds and flowers are first released, and early spring has arrived.
Entering the gate of the palace, he slowed down and asked the palace maid who was guarding outside: “Is the princess asleep?”
“The girl just before the equinox has already accompanied the princess to the bedroom.” The maid replied in a low voice, “The slave and maidservant did not dare to go in and wait for her for fear of disturbing her.
Wang Chen pushed the door open a crack, and squeezed himself in.
The maid looked at Wang Chen’s sneaky behavior in astonishment, and almost stared her eyes out.
In order not to make the princess take a nap, does your Highness even do this kind of thing?
At the vernal equinox sitting outside, embroidering a handkerchief, when he saw Wang Chen who suddenly appeared light-handed, he was shocked and quickly got up: “Lord.”
“Is the princess asleep?” Wang Chen asked quietly.
The equinox nodded.
He tiptoed into the inner room, opened the tent, and saw that the piglet was sitting cross-legged on the bed, with a few spread books in front of him, and his expression looked very strange.
“His Royal Highness, are you back?” Jiuzhu raised her head to look at him, closing the books calmly, and then… threw them back under the bed.
“How did you find these books?” Wang Chen kicked the books under the bed with his feet, and walked over to Jiu Zhu with a blushing face and sat down with a dry cough: “Those messy books are nothing good to see. “
“Yeah.” Jiuzhu nodded, lay down on the bed, and said with her back facing Wang Wang: “Your Highness, I have a nap.”
Looking at the back of his head, Chen Wang faintly noticed something was wrong, thinking that Jiuzhu would mind these unscrupulous little books, and quickly explained: “I didn’t buy these books.”
“Oh.”
All he saw was the back of Jiuzhu’s head.
“What’s the matter?” He reached out and poked her shoulders exposed outside the quilt: “Unhappy?”
“His Royal Highness.” Jiuzhu sat up from the bed, looked at the person in front of her, and said seriously: “If your Royal Highness has someone you like in the future, you must tell me, I won’t make you embarrassed.”
“It’s all messy.” Wang Chen’s big palms rubbed her soft hair scattered on her shoulders: “Someone is talking nonsense in front of you? I’ve grown up so big, except for you, even girls have no hands. Over.”
“I don’t have it now, and I will have it in the future.” Jiuzhu held the quilt, her eyes were especially moist, and she looked like she was about to cry, but her eyes were particularly stubborn: “Your Highness is fine anyway.”
Seeing her big watery eyes, Wang Chen sighed and stretched out his hands to hug her into his arms: “There won’t be any before, and there won’t be any in the future. You’re the only one, don’t think too much.”
He used to hear from those royal dudes that when women were just married, they were prone to gains and losses. He thought they were talking nonsense, but he didn’t expect it to be true.
My own princess is inexplicably awkward, besides making her happy, is there any other choice.
“His Royal Highness lied.” Jiuzhu pushed him away. He almost fell under the bed and was pulled back by her: “You can’t do this.”
“You can’t lie to anyone.” As for those words that the Ministry of Rites can’t do without oneself, it can only be regarded as a man’s self-evaluation, not a lie.
“Really?”
“No.” Wang Chen sat down in the bed, lest he would really be pushed out of the bed.
“That’s it.” Jiuzhu stared at him intently for a few breaths, her eyes gradually becoming gentle, and there seemed to be a little bit of affection in her gentleness: “Your Majesty, it doesn’t matter, no matter what you are, you are the best in my heart. .”
After Wang Chen listened to this, he looked at Jiu Zhu’s eyes again, and it seemed that something was wrong.
He cautiously did not speak.
Seeing that he was not speaking, Jiuzhu stretched out his arms to put his arms around his waist: “His Royal Highness, don’t think too much, I don’t care about those things.”
I don’t care about…
Between the flashing lights, he thought of the little books under the bed.
If you are a man, you can’t help but think about it.
“Ming Xiaozhu, tell me first, what are you thinking?”
“I didn’t think about anything.” Jiuzhu shook his head quickly: “Your Highness, don’t be sad.”
“I’m not sad, I just regret it.” Wang Chen gritted his teeth and regretted that she was tired of distressing her last night and let her go to bed early.
“What regrets…”
The warm lips touched together, and Wang Chen whispered in her ear: “Ming Xiaozhu, there are some things, you don’t need to say you don’t mind, you don’t mind.”
He, mind!
The apricot blossoms are in full bloom, the spring rain is like weaving, and a little water drops on the petals.
The breeze blows up the sky and rains, turning it into the most beautiful spring scene in the world.
“It’s raining.” Wang Huai raised his head and looked at the gray sky. It was going to be dark.
“Brother, are we still waiting?” Wang An put the book in his arms to prevent it from getting wet from the rain.
“From morning to noon, and from noon to afternoon.” Wang Huai muttered: “Will you really have to wait for the evening to come?”
They waited and waited, until it got dark, the sixth palace of Zhang had already held the lamp, and they didn’t wait for the Wang Chen and his wife to appear.
In the Kylin Palace, the king of Chen held the sweetly sleeping Jiuzhu, vaguely felt as if he had forgotten something.
Forget it, what can be easily forgotten by him is certainly not a big deal.
He hugged the person in his arms, gently patted the quilt on her body, and continued to sleep.
