Chapter 38

In the Yuanxiang Garden of the eldest princess's residence, Ruihe followed Qin Shuhuang into the flower hall and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, those gifts brought by the consort..."

Qin Shuhuang sneered, "It's all my palace's stuff, so naturally there's no need to return it, and the registration book will be put together, and if there is something that can be sold, sell it as soon as possible and exchange it for silver."

Ruihe really couldn't think of what the princess wanted so much money for now, but the princess didn't say anything, and she didn't ask, just do everything as the princess said.

Seeing that the son-in-law was kicked out and the gifts were left behind, it can be said that he lost his wife and lost his army, Shi Lan and Shi Yu felt extremely refreshed.

The consort and the Gu family had taken advantage of the princess so much before, and they deserved the retribution they got now!

But looking at it now, it's not that the princess doesn't care about her dowry. Shi Lan and Shiyu looked at each other and asked for help: "Your Highness, since you have moved to the Princess's Mansion, why don't you let the slaves and maidservants take your dowry with you?" The dowry will also be transported to the eldest princess's mansion." To save it from being ruined by Mrs. Gu and others in the Gu family, those things were prepared in advance for the princess by the first emperor and empress, and they are all priceless good things.

Qin Shuhuang picked up the medical book given by Song Yuan next to him and looked at it, and when he heard what Shi Lan Shiyu said, he sneered, "Don't worry, it's too early to go now, Mrs. Gu will take the initiative to return the missing dowry to this In front of the palace!"

Shilan Shiyu was slightly surprised, but at this moment, the two of them still doubted what Qin Shuhuang said.

Would Mrs. Gu, a greedy person like her, really take the initiative to return the embezzled dowry to Her Highness the Princess?
No matter what, His Highness has said so, Shi Lan Shi Yu is not easy to force this matter.

Qin Shuhuang did not continue to pay attention to this matter. Instead, he said to Shilan Shiyu, "Mrs. Rongguo, does she have an invitation for the chrysanthemum banquet?"

Mrs. Rongguo is the lady of the country who was proclaimed by the first emperor, and the aunt of Qin Shuhuang and Qin Shumin.

It's just that Mrs. Rongguo's life was not good. Although her husband was the Duke of the country, he died in the battlefield at a young age, leaving no sons and a half daughters.

Mrs. Rongguo has been in poor health since she was a child. Her husband passed away and was shocked. Her health became worse and she has been lingering in bed.

In order to snatch the title, the offshoots of the Du family did everything they could, and almost killed Mrs. Rongguo.

It was Qin Shuhuang's mother who tried her best to protect Mrs. Rongguo, and asked the first emperor for the title of "Mrs. Rongguo", so she kept Mrs. Rongguo.

Mrs. Rongguo is not someone who is left to be manipulated.

With the title of "Mrs. Rongguo", she gained a firm foothold in the Du family, and then adopted a child from a side branch. After dragging her sick body, she subdued the power of her late husband in the army. It took five years to completely trap the power of the Du family. Hands and brought up the children.

Later, the late empress and the late emperor passed away one after another. It was precisely because of the care of Mrs. Rongguo that the Qin Shuhuang siblings were able to grow up safely.

It's just that Mrs. Rongguo has been in poor health and has limited energy. No matter what, Mrs. Rongguo's lineage also belongs to foreign relatives, and was severely suppressed by the regent Qin Wei. When the Qin Shuhuang sister and brother got older, Qin Wei would not allow them The siblings had too much contact with Mrs. Rong Guo, and sowed discord from them.

She wanted to marry Gu Hongchao at first, but Mrs. Rongguo also opposed it, but she refused to listen. Mrs. Rongguo was angry with her for this. Seeing her stubbornness, she gradually stopped interacting with her after marriage. At that time, I felt that my aunt didn't think about her, so in a fit of anger, she broke off contact directly.

It's just that every year during festivals, Mrs. Rongguo still asks her adopted son Du Qinglin to send her some festival gifts. For some important banquets, Mrs. Rongguo also asks people to send invitations, but she never goes to them.

Shi Lan Shiyu never thought that the day would come when Her Royal Highness the Princess would ask Mrs. Rong Guo an invitation.

The two of them were slightly surprised in their eyes, and they were stunned for a moment, but Shilan reacted quickly and replied: "Go back to Your Highness, I sent it, I received it a few days ago, but you have never attended Mrs. Rongguo's banquet before, so this servant did not mentioned."

"When is the chrysanthemum feast?"

Shi Lan immediately went to find the invitation card, looked through the invitation card, Shi Lan said awkwardly: "Your Highness, today is the day!"

Qin Shuhuang hurriedly put down the medical book in his hand, and ordered: "Get ready, I'm going to attend my aunt's chrysanthemum banquet!"

After listening to Qin Shuhuang's order, Shi Lan Shiyu immediately got ready.

The clothes are all ready-made. The Princess's Mansion originally prepared various seasonal clothes for Qin Shuhuang, so just choose a bright and elegant one.

Qin Shuhuang personally selected the gifts, and took no trouble to choose many nourishing medicinal materials, write down medicinal recipes for health care, and personally invited Master Song Yuan to go to Mrs. Rongguo's annex with him.

In the past, when Qin Shuhuang was in the Gu Mansion, Mrs. Rongguo's invitations were always sent to the concierge of the Gu Mansion. Although Qin Shuhuang did not accept them, Mrs. Gu never refused them.

Qin Shuhuang will not attend the banquet, but Mrs. Gu will take people to look good.

Now that Qin Shuhuang has moved to live in the Princess's Mansion, Mrs. Rongguo's message was sent directly to the Princess's Mansion. Madam Gu naturally couldn't receive the message from Mrs. Rongguo. Post cannot join.

Mrs. Rong Guo's other courtyard is in the suburbs, and it takes an hour to start from the Princess's mansion.

Rao Qin Shuhuang had asked her personal guards to speed up the carriage, and it was almost noon when she arrived at the other courtyard, and the guests had already arrived first.

When Qin Shuhuang's carriage stopped at the entrance of the other courtyard, there were many carriages parked outside the courtyard, all of which were from various mansions.

When Qin Shuhuang saw these carriages and horses, he felt deeply for Mrs. Rongguo's intentions.

My aunt is the eldest sister of her mother's mother, she is ten years older than her mother's mother, and she has always been in poor health. She still insists on holding a chrysanthemum banquet every year for the purpose of the royal brother's wedding. The general election has long eyes, using her power to show the emperor's brother, and try her best to prevent the regent from interfering in the emperor's wedding.

In her previous life, she did not come to this chrysanthemum banquet, which caused her aunt to bear the infamy and physical irritation. Her condition deteriorated and she died a month later. It also made her cousin Du Qinglin feel bad for their siblings, and finally turned against the fourth prince.

Chrysanthemums of various colors are in full bloom in the other courtyard, and maids and women shuttle among them to serve the distinguished guests, although they are busy, they are not chaotic.

Mrs. Rongguo, who was dressed in purple and gorgeous clothes, was sitting in the flower hall of the main courtyard, accepting the visits of the ladies and ladies.

Mrs. Rong Guo looked kindly, with a gentle smile on her face, and anyone who saw her felt close and kind.

Du Qinglin hurried in and saw his mother being surrounded by the ladies of the capital talking and having fun. Her face was peaceful, but the smile on her face did not reach her eyes.

Even though all the guests had arrived, my mother still looked around the corner of the courtyard from time to time, always imagining that a bright figure would come out of the corner, greet her with a smile, hold her arms, and sweetly call out "Auntie." "...

Seeing her son coming, Mrs. Rong Guo couldn't help asking with anticipation, "Is Huang'er here?"
