Chapter 77 The first time the Princess’s Mansion entertains guests

After saying that, Gu Long didn't stay in his wife's study room any longer and left quickly and angrily.

Not long after, Grandma Ge came in and whispered: "Madam, I went to Aunt Ding's place."

Auntie Ding is Gu Long's new concubine in recent years. She is at the same age as Hua. She was pregnant once and disappeared somehow. Before that, Gu Long was still cold to Auntie Ding. Now that Mrs. Gu made him angry, he again Went to Aunt Ding's.

When Mrs. Gu heard the news, she almost broke the veil in her hand.

Although she was dissatisfied with her husband going to live with his concubine, Mrs. Gu could still distinguish the importance. Gu Yuling was related to the future of their Gu family. She had to bring her back in these two days!

Grandma Ge frowned, "Madam, what should I do?"

Although the eldest princess returned to the eldest princess's mansion, the Gu family could not really fall out with Qin Shuhuang at this time.

"I'm going to get my daughter back. It's a matter of course. Even the emperor can't stop her. Could it be that she, Qin Shuhuang, can still hold Gu Yuling by force?" The more Mrs. Gu said, the more righteous she felt.

Besides, she also used the soft ones. It turns out that Qin Shuhuang doesn't eat soft ones now, so he should use the hard ones as his son said!

At this moment, Mrs. Gu is determined to bring the concubine back from the eldest princess's mansion.

It was quiet for two days.

Qin Shuhuang would personally carry the food box to the small courtyard where Xuan Cang lived every evening, and watch Xuan Cang finish the dishes in the food box.

After cooking more, Qin Shuhuang's culinary skills have improved slightly, but not much.

It has to be said that the smart eldest princess really has no talent in cooking.

Xuancang was pained and happy every day eating the love dinner from His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, and his subordinate Xie Zhuo and Xie Cheng soon discovered that his master's taste had become less picky than before.

The two of them lowered their heads and did not dare to say anything. They often quietly brought their master some delicious supper or something in the middle of the night to relieve his pain.

Two days later, it was the day when Mrs. Rongguo and the Xu Xue family visited the eldest princess's mansion.

Early in the morning, Lu Zhou and his servants got busy.

This was the first time to entertain guests since the opening of the eldest princess's mansion. Although Qin Shuhuang thought it was nothing, he took it very seriously.

Today Qin Shuhuang wore a peacock blue palace dress and a set of ruby ​​jewelry. The palace dress is already gorgeous, and with the luxurious rubies, Qin Shuhuang looks noble and dignified, just like the peonies blooming in the imperial garden .

Shilan Shiyu and several maids came in and out to dress Qin Shuhuang. Seeing His Highness dressed so beautifully, they felt a sense of accomplishment.

In the past in the Gu Mansion, Qin Shuhuang always dressed plainly to cater to Gu Hongchao. Shilan Shiyu's skills in combing hair and makeup were not used. Now Qin Shuhuang once again returned to the role of the eldest princess in the palace. It seemed that Shilan Shiyu was happier than His Highness.

After dressing up, Qin Shuhuang saw the half-worn orange dresses worn by the four maids, and turned to ask Ruihe, "Have the new clothes that I ordered the embroidery room to make for you not yet arrived?"

Ruihe was startled, then recovered and said with a smile: "It was delivered yesterday."

"Hurry up and put on new clothes. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will buy you another set. Don't be reluctant to wear it. In addition, take out the sandalwood jewelry box in this palace. There are four gold and jade bracelets in it. Take each of you." one to go."

Shilan is in charge of jewelry for Qin Shuhuang. She knows that the bracelets in the sandalwood jewelry box are very valuable. If you take them out, you might not be able to buy one for a hundred taels of silver. Their eldest maid can only buy a little more than one tael of silver. How can she get it? I want such expensive jewelry from His Highness.

"Your Highness, I can't do it. It's too expensive. It's your jewelry. You'll have to wear it in the future!" Shilan hurriedly declined.

Several others also said no.

Qin Shuhuang glanced at the maids helplessly, "We are not in the Gu Mansion now. You have also seen my dowry. Are these bracelets missing? Okay, take them all. There will be more in the future. I’ll give you other good things.”

Qin Shuhuang was right, with her current wealth, she was no longer in the Gu mansion, and a few bracelets were nothing.

The four maids would have betrayed Qin Shuhuang's good intentions if they refused any more, and they all saluted and thanked him for the reward.

Shilan went to get the jewelry box and distributed four gold and jade bracelets engraved with various patterns to the sisters.

When Ruihe got the bracelet and took a closer look, he discovered that there was a small He character pattern engraved on the inside of the bracelet.

She quickly reminded Ruimiao Shilan Shiyu to look at their bracelets, and as expected, the bracelets everyone got had their names engraved on the inside.

It turned out that this set of bracelets was specially ordered by the Princess to be made for them.

When the four of them learned the truth, their eye sockets were sore and hot.

In the middle of the day, the carriages of Rongguo's mansion, Xu's family, and Xue's family arrived in front of the gate of the eldest princess's mansion.

Lu Zhou and four maids greeted him in front of the mansion.

Lu Zhou was wearing a new gray satin suit, with some gray hair combed meticulously. His face was fair and beardless, and coupled with his aura, one could tell at a glance that he was a shrewd man from the palace.

Behind Lu Zhou stood four maids: Ruihe, Ruimiao, Shilan, Shiyu.

The four of them look dignified and elegant, about the same size. They all wear pink shirts and yellow skirts, and short thin velvet capes. They wear gold and jade bracelets on their wrists. They look like elegant ladies coming out of a painting.

Upon closer inspection, several people have their own characteristics in appearance, calm and introverted, intelligent, witty, beautiful and handsome, lively and agile.

I was dizzy for a moment.

Lu Zhou and the four maids personally helped Mrs. Rong Guo, Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Xue to get off the carriage.

Many people came today. Du Qinglin rode to protect Mrs. Rongguo, Mrs. Xu brought her daughter Xu Siyuan, and Mrs. Xue brought her granddaughter Xue Ruzhen.

When they got off the carriage, they saw several maids beside Qin Shuhuang, Mrs. Rongguo and others all laughed.

"What a beautiful daughter!" Mrs. Rongguo praised.

Now Qin Shuhuang's behavior is the true style of Princess Dawu.

Rui He supported Mrs. Rong Guo's arm, and said softly: "Mrs. Guo, Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Xue, Mrs. Du, the two young ladies, please enter the mansion quickly. Your Highness is waiting in the front yard."

Mrs. Rong Guo smiled and nodded, and entered the Princess's mansion together with Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xue.

Du Qinglin was a male guest, and among the guests was Yunying's unmarried young lady, so he was invited by Lu Zhou to the study room in the front yard of the eldest princess's mansion.

The place Qin Shuhuang prepared to entertain guests today was a courtyard in the front yard called Guiyuan.

There are several old osmanthus trees in the courtyard. They are rare early osmanthus trees, which are in full bloom at this time.

The courtyard is adjacent to a small lake in the garden. Sitting in a small pavilion by the lake, drinking tea and chatting, smelling the fragrance of cinnamon, and eating a drunken crab, it is not rude to entertain distinguished guests.

Entering the courtyard, he saw Qin Shuhuang standing dignifiedly at the entrance of the courtyard.

Mrs. Rong Guo happily shouted "Huang'er", and Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xue led Xu Siyuan and Xue Ruzhen to salute Qin Shuhuang.

Qin Shuhuang hurriedly stepped forward to help the two ladies up.

"Madams, please come inside."

Mrs. Rong Guo was very satisfied with Qin Shuhuang's arrangement today. She liked sweet-scented osmanthus very much, smelling the fragrance of early sweet-scented osmanthus, it seemed that the hustle and bustle and fatigue of these days had been eased a lot.

Mrs. Xu had met Qin Shuhuang last time. Originally, she was not optimistic about the eldest princess. But after what happened last time, Mrs. Xu completely changed her view on Qin Shuhuang. She also felt that the things that had been passed down from the Gu family in recent years were Rumors are nonsense.

Mrs. Xue has white hair and a normal body. She has to be supported by two strong women when she walks, but the old man's eyes are clear, and when she looks at Qin Shuhuang, there is no cloudiness in her eyes. Not only suffering, but also a transparency that ordinary people rarely have.

Originally, Mrs. Xue did not agree with her granddaughter's participation in the general election. Firstly, the situation in the palace was complicated. Secondly, although the Xue family needed to be revitalized, she was not willing to take risks in the palace for her only granddaughter.

But at Mrs. Rongguo's banquet in the other courtyard, the eldest princess rescued her granddaughter, and now she saw Qin Shuhuang in person. Mrs. Xue had something to worry about, and suddenly she didn't want to stop her granddaughter.

With such an eldest sister, the emperor will definitely be fine. As long as the royal family is around, the life of the granddaughter in the palace will not be any worse.

It is also of great benefit to the Xue family.

Qin Shuhuang asked her aunt and two wives to sit down, and then glanced at Xu Siyuan and Xue Ruzhen.

Seeing this, she was slightly startled.
