Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 380

Xiao Chenyu came to pick up Qin Xiang. Yao Xiang invited Xiao Chenyu to come in and sit for a while. After asking a few gossips, the couple left together.

Yao Xiang looked at the backs of the two of them, feeling a little sour in her heart. The wet nurse came over and sighed: "If the princess really misses that person, why not write him a letter and bring him to the capital?"

"Why are you here? When he comes, he is not a target of the Du family. I may not be able to protect him."

The wet nurse also knew that the Du family was so powerful that even the emperor was now at the mercy of others like a puppet. Du Ziren is actually a very cautious and vicious person. In order to force Yao Xiang to have a romantic relationship with him, he had to give birth to a child with the blood of the Du family and the Nine Princes' Palace.

Yao Xiang laughed at herself: "At the beginning, I only thought that he had a beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament. It would be great to be the father of my child. However, I don't know when, I have always thought of him. The more I think about it, the harder it is to forget.”

Nowadays, the child looks a bit like Lu Jiu, so when Yao Xiang sees the child every day, she can't help but think of Lu Jiu. Thinking of the lingering days, she can't help but smile filling her eyes and eyebrows. In the end, she can't help but think of Lu Jiu. It turned into a helpless sigh and disappeared.

In the eyes of outsiders, Yao Xiang was a fierce and romantic woman. If the Ninth Prince hadn't been so strong and partial, she would have been cast aside or even killed.

Only the nurse knew that she was actually a lonely person. In the past, Yao Xiang did things as he pleased, but now he is timid.

"Why did the prince call you to the palace? What did he say to you?" Qin Xiang expressed her dissatisfaction that the ninth prince called you to the palace when she was still recovering.

"It's nothing. I came here on my own. Some things are better said in person." It was obvious that Xiao Chenyu was a little absent-minded.

Seeing Qin Xiang glare at him, she smiled and said, "I really came here on my own. The prince brought me a message, asking me to help the young prince receive foreign missions this time."

Qin Xiang's expression immediately became serious: "Could it be that what is the prince trying to do? He started to pursue power again when he got old?"

Xiao Chenyu looked deeply at Qin Xiang and said in a meaningful tone: "He knew that time was running out, but he suddenly found that there were many people who were concerned and worried about him, so he had no choice but to start taking action again."

Later, Xiao Chenyu said with a little doubt and hesitation: "However, today I saw that the prince's complexion seems to be better than before, and his speech is much more energetic. I don't know if he has been diagnosed and treated by Dr. Zhang?"

Qin Xiang sighed: "This lady's character is not good, but Princess Yaoxiang said her medical skills are really good!"

After saying that, he added: "Old Doctor Zhang's grandson has never woken up. Doctor Li comes to check his pulse every day. It is said that the pulse is stronger, and he may wake up some day."

The couple talked for a while on the carriage, and Qin Xiang felt sleepy, leaning on Xiao Chenyu's shoulder and closing her eyes.

Xiao Chenyu also fell into silence thinking about what the Ninth Prince had arranged.

He and Qin Xiang's original intention was not to accept the mission of receiving the envoy, but the Ninth Prince scolded him seriously, saying that he had the heart of a woman and should seize the opportunity when it came.

In addition to Yao Xiang, the Ninth Prince also has two adopted grandsons. However, these two people can't do anything important except keeping an eye on the Ninth Prince's house to get some benefits.

After all, Yao Xiang is a woman and has no husband to help. Therefore, the best candidate for the Ninth Prince is Xiao Chenyu.

He is smart, visionary, and has entered the officialdom. What's even better is that he can be regarded as his grandson-in-law. He has no background or connections, so he can only rely on the Nine Princes' Palace.

And like Qin Xiang, he has some tricks and scheming, but he still has an innocent heart and has never lost his conscience.

For Lord Ninth Prince, he likes this kind of person more and feels more at ease, because he can train him well. Princess Huayi was disgraced today. It was a great shame and humiliation. When Princess Huayi returned home, she smashed all the porcelain and screens in the house and summoned Du Ziren's concubine to clean up the room. Only then did she feel a little relieved. .

Afterwards, Princess Huayi, who had calmed down, leaned on the chair and looked out the window through the concubines kneeling in front of her.

"I'm back. I'm talking to the old man in the study outside." The maid came in and whispered into Hua Yi's ear.

"Let's all go back." Hua Yi sneered again and again, but still waved the concubines in front of him to go back, and threatened: "Don't think about crying in front of me. If you make a scene, I will vent your anger for you. Peace of mind Well, you still have a good life in this house. If you are uneasy, I will not show mercy. "

In fact, she didn't need to say anything, everyone knew that Du Ziren couldn't help them much, and they would end up falling into Hua Yi's hands.

Moreover, not to mention Du Ziren, even Du Ziren's mother, Hua Yi, acted in a secretive way and did not give too much face. This is evident from Hua Yi's arrogance and domineering attitude.

Everyone left respectfully, and Hua Yi said expressionlessly to the maid beside him: "That bitch said she had a secret about me, what secret can I have?"

Indeed, Hua Yi is so arrogant that she doesn't need to hide anything. She can do whatever she wants, so why hide and cover up?
The maid hesitated and looked at Hua Yi's face: "How about I go meet her? Let's see what she wants to do."

Before Hua Yi could speak, another maid came in and reported: "After Mrs. Xiao left the garden where the flower viewing party was held, she went straight to the Nine Princes' Mansion. After knocking on the door, she went straight in without waiting for the report. And The gatekeeper looks familiar!"

Hua Yi frowned and said displeasedly: "What's going on with Yao Xiang? It's so embarrassing to walk around with someone like her. But, yes, she has been like this before, as long as she sees it as a cat or a dog. I can even look at it with my eyes, huh, I just don’t know what to say.”

However, Hua Yi also knew that he still did not dare to be presumptuous in front of Princess Yaoxiang.

Then I remembered the rumor: the child adopted by Yaoxiang was actually her illegitimate child, and the child's biological father was her own man, Du Ziren.

Hua Yi felt upset when he thought of this.

Just then, Du Ziren walked in, and when he met her angry eyes, he asked: "What are you angry about again?"

Hua Yi didn't move, she held her chin and said coldly: "My noble princess, my father is Jianyong Marquis, who holds military power, but you bullied me so badly, why do you have the nerve to ask me why I'm angry?"

Du Ziren frowned and looked impatient. He turned around and went to the inner room to change. Hua Yi's personal maid, who was also Du Ziren's maid, followed him in to help Du Ziren change.

Du Ziren asked: "What happened to her?"

"Master Xiao's wife made me angry today." The maid reached out to untie Du Ziren's belt, so she wrapped it around his waist. At this time, she raised her head and spoke in a lowered voice, as if she was acting coquettishly in his arms.

"Mrs. Xiao?" Du Ziren ignored maid Ruoyouruowu's teasing. He didn't know what he thought of, but his eyes became a little blurry. Later, he sneered lowly: "That person is indeed different and not easy to mess with."

Hua Yi in the outer room listened to the two people talking in the room, but couldn't hear clearly what they said, and seemed to hear Du Ziren laughing, so he became even more angry and cursed loudly: "You bastard, you are actually here You are hooking up with me in front of me. It’s been a long time since I saw a man. How about I find a man for you and watch over you day and night?”

The maid was shocked. She bit her lip and quickly helped Du Ziren change clothes. Du Ziren quickly said, "Don't be afraid, she just said it casually!"

The maid thought to herself, if she could get married, even if she could eat rice bran, what would be so good about her life now?
