Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 32

However, thinking about the unpredictable luck ahead, this marriage is not a good thing.

Thinking again, this girl has such an embarrassing life experience, and it is already on the branch to marry into the palace. When the prince takes over the throne, isn't that a princess?
It's better to persuade her son, don't always favor her and miss her future!What is the grievance for a while, how can life be so perfect!
Thinking of this, his brows widened: "Sister Wei, thank you for your grace, Princess."

On one side was the reward from the princess, and on the other was the old lady's admonition. Zhao Xiwei couldn't refuse, so he had to bow his knees, which was another blessing, and said more respectfully: "Thanks to the princess' love, the ministers and daughters are grateful."

The princess stretched out her hand to support her: "Oh, you child, what are you being polite."

Smiling like a spring breeze, he said: "Don't look at me as a princess, in fact, I have stayed in Jiangxia for so many years, and my favorite thing is to go to the streets. I forgot seven, seven, eight, eight."

He added: "In terms of age, I'm not even a few years older than your mother. If you don't mind my nagging, you will treat me like a half-mother in the future, and go to the palace to play when you have time, and I will ask the mother in the house to make it for you. Jiangxia's most famous glutinous rice candy lotus root, okay?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Zhao Xi lowered his head slightly, a thin layer of sweat on his back.

The princess said all the words for this kind of sake, how could she not understand the meaning behind it.

Although I have been mentally prepared for a long time, at this moment, it is still inevitable to be nervous.

As the daughter of the prime minister, her marriage is definitely not up to her.However, with such an unusual family as Jiangxia Wangfu, with the politics involved in the court, how will she handle herself?
Look at some of her nominal family members in the house,
The eldest lady's face was gloomy and uncertain, and her palm was firmly pressed against the edge of the black lacquered table.

The second lady looked leisurely and calm, holding a sky-blue tea cup in one hand, and gently smearing foam in the other hand, and she was indifferent as she did not hear what was going on outside the window.

The remaining Zhao Chengyu and Zhao Chengyan, one was full of hatred and the other smiled dignifiedly.

Only the third lady's family really cares about her.

Zhao Chengmiao was still young, so she couldn't see everyone's complicated thoughts, so she asked softly, "Sister Wei, do you like eating glutinous rice and sugar lotus?"

The third lady hurriedly covered Zhao Chengmiao's mouth, turned her head slightly, glanced at Zhao Xi, and said with a gentle smile, "You greedy cat, the Queen concubine's joke is serious." Blinking his eyes, "Sister Wei, did you say that?"

This implied reminder made Zhao Xiwei wake up completely.

Yes, but she just said it casually, how could she be in a mess.

My father said that if I can solve things I can do, I can't solve it, and he will come forward.

She has to quickly adapt to life in the high gate compound.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xi smiled slightly and gave a blessing: "As soon as the minister saw the princess, she felt even more kind, and unknowingly took the empress's jokes for real, and asked the empress not to laugh. The minister had heard of it before. Jiangxia has three beauties, and the most beautiful is lotus root. Last night, I read a poem by chance, and it was very well written—the jade snow is exquisite, and it is green and red. Life has infinite meaning, only in the heart. "

After a pause, he looked at the princess, "It's a pity that the ministers and daughters have never been to the south, and I don't know what that jade snow is like. If there is a chance, I can borrow the light of the goddess to taste the lotus root in the south of the Yangtze River and appreciate the greenery. Water safflower is also the blessing of ministers and daughters."

His voice was as gentle as a hawk, and his smile was as bright as a pear blossom.

Zhao Chengyu's eyes were stunned: When did this wild girl become so full of poetry and books?
The princess' smiling face gradually turned serious, she sat up straight, and stared at the sixteen-year-old girl in front of her.

Lotus roots are sweet and lotus seeds are bitter. Only when you can endure the bitterness in your heart can you have endless sweetness.Isn't life like this?
Looking at Zhao Xi again, he stood with his eyes lowered slightly, with a peaceful and calm expression on his face.

The impetuous heart of the princess also calmed down inexplicably.

It seems that it is time for the prince to come forward and have a deep talk with Zhao Ziyi.

The stone in her heart fell, and the princess's expression became gentler. After chatting with the old lady and the eldest lady about the interesting things in Beijing in the past, she got up and said goodbye.

The old lady graciously stayed for the meal, and the princess smiled and declined: "There are still important things in the house, and I will come back to the old fairy to reminisce when I have some free time."

The old lady no longer insisted, and led all the female relatives out of the flower hall, personally sent the princess to the door of the mansion, watched the princess' carriage and horses disappear into the street, and then turned back to the mansion.

After entering the Chuihuamen, everyone was about to go back to their respective gardens, when the second wife, Yuan Shi, suddenly spoke leisurely.

"It's too strange that the concubine is the only one under her knees, and she hasn't married yet at 24. Could it be that the nobles in the palace have made other arrangements."

Zhao Xiwei's back stiffened.

Zhao Chengyu, who followed closely behind, was unprepared and stepped on her shoe.

"Oh, sister Wei, why is your face so ugly? Didn't you all look fine just now?"

Zhao Chengyu showed a mocking smile.

Zhao Xiwei suddenly felt very irritable.

The matter involves the Qian Dynasty, and may also involve the family. This idiot is still thinking about fighting for the wind and being jealous!

I couldn't help but glance at the second lady.

Yuan Shi smiled, looking like he was watching the fire from across the mountain, and led Zhao Chengyu straight away.

A warm hand gently held her finger, and the third lady, Mrs. Sun, smiled and closed the cloak for her: "It's windy here, and it's making everyone cold. Remember to ask the mother in the big kitchen to cook a bowl of ginger soup and go to the cold."

"Thank you third aunt." Zhao Xiwei saw the concern that could not be hidden in her eyes, and replied with a smile, "I should drink something hot."

The third lady nodded and turned to go to the garden in the west.

Zhao Xiwei was standing on the hand-handling veranda. Today's events were too complicated and sudden, so she had to think about it.

Suddenly there was a chirp in her ear, and she couldn't help but look up.

It was noon, no wind and no snow, the pale blue sky was like a wash, and the thin sunlight jumped on the glazed tiles, reflecting the bright light of gold foil.The snow on the roof was melting silently, and a few white-bellied birds circled and jumped on it, and finally stopped on the roof of the beast to peck each other's feathers.

In this deep house compound, the birds still have a moment of peace and freedom.

And what about her?
Now that he has decided to return to the government, he must face the complicated situation in the future.

Taking a deep breath, the clean and fresh smell of snow in the air made her restlessness slowly fade away, and her eyes slowly became firmer.
