Chapter 16

Zhao's understanding of "princess" is only in the drama.

The princesses in the play are all golden branches and jade leaves, holding power in their hands. They can turn their hands to make clouds and rain. They can make men and dogs ascend to heaven with just one word, and they can also destroy a family with just one word.

So when Leng Lanzhi married into Pingnanhou's Mansion, she also respected her daughter-in-law.

But as she got along with Leng Lanzhi, she found that this princess daughter-in-law was no different from other people's daughter-in-law, and she had to respect her mother-in-law.

In the Hou Mansion, you can tell the truth.

Over time, her sense of awe disappeared.

Seeing Huang's respectful attitude towards the princess now, she couldn't help but wonder, would it really be useful for her to curry favor with the lady of the household servant?

Thinking of it this way, her desire to make friends with each other became much weaker.

She couldn't figure it out, so she simply took the people away without going in.

Leng Lanzhi's goal had been achieved, so he did not leave Huang behind to waste time. He only asked the other party to take the little girl back to prepare, and he would order someone to pick up the little girl in two days.

When Huang Shi left, she was still in a daze, and the way she looked at He Hengyue was also very complicated.

Although she is the main wife of the servant of the household department, she also gave birth to several children, but she didn't give birth to a son, and the three she gave birth to were all maids.

It is impossible to expect the three maids to inherit the family business, after all, there are still a few brothers in the mansion.

What she likes the most is the concubine Zhang of the Minister's Mansion, that is, the son born to her cousin. She thinks about adopting the child under her own name in the future, so that she can also be a mother and a son, and secure the position of the head of the house.

As for He Hengyue, the son born of a lowly singer, she never took it seriously.

Unexpectedly, this child experienced an accident, but in accordance with the old saying that if he survives a catastrophe, he will be blessed, he was rescued by the princess, and using this as an opportunity, the princess fell in love with his sharp mouth Lee's sister.

After returning to the Minister's Mansion, Huang's mood was still a little irritated: "The two siblings are lucky."

The maid on the side was puzzled: "Madam, Princess Jialuo only likes the fifth young lady, not the third young master. Why do you need to worry? How much trouble can she make as a little girl? What's more, although Princess Jialuo has a noble status , but he is a bit weak and has no power in his hands. Otherwise, with the military achievements made by the Prince Consort, how could he only be a sixth-grade Hundred Household?"

Huang Shichi said: "What do you know? This is the princess who has means."

"Huh?" The maid was puzzled.

Huang said: "I heard that the consort did not beg to marry the princess willingly, otherwise he would not have gone to the border as soon as he got married to the princess. This time he is stationed in Shengjing, and he heard that it was the princess who asked for your majesty's decree. , he had to stay.

As for this sixth-grade Baihu... You also said that he is a dignified prince-in-law. Even if you don't care about his military exploits and only care about the princess's face, Your Majesty should not give him such an embarrassing status.

In my opinion, this is the intention of the princess, just to force the prince-in-law to bow his head. "

The maid suddenly said, "So that's how it is."

Mrs. Huang sighed: "Forget it, Sanlang, let him be Sanlang. After all, he is also the brother of my Minister of Household Affairs. If he really succeeds in the future because of his elder sister, it will also be a blessing for my Minister of Household."

Then he whispered softly: "The princess's mother-in-law is really a village woman from the countryside. Such a person can't become a prince even if she puts on a yellow robe."

Don't think that she didn't see Mrs. Zhao enter Jinxiu Garden and leave again, but any mother-in-law with brains would not slap the princess and daughter-in-law in the face like this.

***
After Mrs. Huang left, Leng Lanzhi ordered someone to send a greeting card to Mrs. Xie.

Mrs. Xie is the daughter of Master Xie, a great scholar in the world. She has read poetry and books since she was a child, and her talents and abilities are no worse than those of famous men.

If she hadn't been a woman, she would have definitely become a pillar of the government.

However, although she could not become an official in the court, she had served as a teacher for many noble ladies.

Although Leng Lanzhi studied at the Royal Academy, he had also consulted Mrs. Xie for knowledge and had great trust in her knowledge and character.

Three days later, she ordered someone to bring He Qianqian over, and took her to Mrs. Xie's residence.

Mrs. Xie is forty-five this year and is married to Mrs. Du's son.

A group of people entered the Taifu's mansion mightily, Leng Lanzhi retreated the unrelated people, pushed the little girl forward under Mrs. Xie's curious eyes, and explained the purpose of coming: "Mrs. Xie, this palace is for this little girl." Come here, I hope you can teach her a thing or two."

Mrs. Xie was taken aback: "Dare to ask the princess, this lady is..."

"She is the Fifth Miss of the Household Minister's Mansion, but this is not important. The important thing is that I think the little girl is quite spiritual. It would be a pity to let her disappear in the eyes of everyone."

"Oh? Quite spiritual?" Mrs. Xie looked at He Qianqian in surprise.

The little girl's eyes were shining, and although her face was cold, she was not dull at all.

Leng Lanzhi smiled slightly: "If Mrs. Xie doesn't believe it, feel free to test her. Although she hasn't learned much, she has secretly learned a lot from the adults. Although she may not know what it means, her memory is very good."

Mrs. Xie understood.

This little girl is diligent and studious, and has good memory skills.

The test is naturally from the opposite side.

She was also polite, and did not lower her standards just because Leng Lanzhi was a princess.

After a slight hesitation, she read a poem, then looked at He Qianqian: "How many lines have you remembered?"

"Hmm... I didn't hear it very clearly. Could you please read it again?"

Although the little girl is smart, she is still just a child after all.

She couldn't remember everything she had never been exposed to before.

Mrs. Xie was not angry and read it again.

When Mrs. Xie was reading a poem, the little girl's eyes were wide open. She repeated every sentence Mrs. Xie read. During this period, the pronunciation of a few words was incorrect, and Mrs. Xie corrected it.

After reading it for the second time, He Qianqian lowered his head and thought about it, and said a little embarrassedly: "Last time! Can you please repeat it for the last time!"

Madam Xie repeated with a smile.

"Okay! I remember!"

He Qianqian took a deep breath.

Leng Lanzhi was a little surprised, and Mrs. Xie also showed interest.

He Qianqian closed her eyes, opened and closed her pink lips, and recited the entire poem.

Leng Lanzhi breathed out gently.

I didn’t expect this girl to be a treasure.

Mrs. Xie also showed a satisfied expression, but she didn't agree immediately: "The little girl does have aura, but she doesn't know what her temperament is? I'm getting old, and I don't want to teach a bad guy..."

Leng Lanzhi said with a smile: "Madam, just take the test of her character, if you think she has passed the test, it will not be too late to formally accept apprentices."

The little girl blinked her eyes, looked at Leng Lanzhi and then at Mrs. Madam’s face!”

What a ghost.

Leng Lanzhi couldn't do anything about what happened next. Of course, she didn't want to do anything.

In her previous life, He Qianqian gave her half a piece of puff pastry. In this life, she gave the little girl a chance to climb up.

Whether you can grasp it depends on whether the little girl has the ability and good luck.

Just like in her previous life, she was caught by Shen Yizhi's people not long after she left the ruined temple.

This is life.

At noon, Leng Lanzhi returned to the Hou Mansion. When passing by the garden, he heard Zhao's cursing voice.
