Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

Xu Xiuzhu's words often seemed like he was scolding a younger generation, but now Xu Xingyin was the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace, and no longer the unsupported Miss Xu Qi.

Xu Xiuzhu's move undoubtedly posed a difficult problem for Xu Xingyin.

If he swallowed his anger in silence, he would be inferior to others in the Duke's Mansion in the future. If he fought back directly, he would feel uneasy about his "filial piety".

Xu Xingyin was still hesitating when Jing Zhichen took two steps forward and calmly took Xu Xingyin's hand.

This was the second time the two held hands, following their wedding when they climbed the jade steps hand in hand.

Without the tension of the previous time, Xu Xingyin could truly feel the thin calluses left by Jing Zhichen's years of martial arts practice. It was a little prickly, but surprisingly reassuring.

"Why do you need to invite me? Usually, I have to go to the East Palace to invite Jiaojiao. Besides, husband and wife are one, and the Duke's Mansion is also my 'home'."

Jing Zhichen's words seemed to be meant to support Xu Xingyin.

The so-called unity of husband and wife means that Xu Xingyin is raised to the same level as himself. If the Duke's Mansion does not respect Xu Xingyin, it is disrespecting Jing Zhichen.

However, Xu Xiuzhu only paid attention to the first half of the sentence, with an embarrassed look on his face.

"The husband is the head of the wife. The Crown Princess should serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince carefully. You must not break the rules."

Not to mention Xu Xingyin, even Jing Zhichen was so angry that he laughed.

Xu Xiuzhu has been in the court for many years and has done a good job. Why is it that when he returns to his own backyard, he is surrounded by lawsuits?

It's really frustrating!

Although he was speechless, Jing Zhichen still stood firmly in front of Xu Xingyin, and his light words sounded like a joke and a warning.

He said: "In the East Palace, the Crown Princess is the rule."

"Your Highness loves me so much, it's a blessing for the Crown Princess."

Even though Xu Xiuzhu was confused, he could hear the protective meaning in it, and hurriedly smiled to ease the atmosphere: "Your Highness, Crown Prince, Crown Princess, please follow me into the mansion. Please!"

After saying that, Xu Xiuzhu led everyone to welcome the people from the East Palace into the mansion. The main hall of the Xu Mansion had already been decorated. Jing Zhichen and Xu Xingyin sat in the main seats, and the others also sat down one after another, sipping tea and chatting.

In the three months since Xu Xingyin got married, the Xu Mansion seemed to be the same as before, but with some subtle differences than before.

Most of the younger generations in the family have grown up and have started to live their own lives. Madam Xu is now less and less willing to get involved in household chores. She devotes herself to worshipping Buddha all day long, leaving all household affairs to Chen.

Xu Xingyin married well, and Chen held the power over the family. No one in the entire Xu Guogong Mansion dared to make things difficult for Chen. Her life couldn't be smoother. The only thing that was not going well was probably Xu Chaoming.

Xu Chaoming was an extremely intelligent man. He borrowed the power of the Eastern Palace overtly or covertly to thrive in official circles. This made Xu Xiuzhu very fond of him and he took him wherever he went. On the contrary, he was indifferent to Xu Chaoge, the legitimate son of the emperor.

Xu Chaoge entered the Imperial Academy to study some time ago, and will take part in the Spring Examination next year, so he was going to welcome his sister back home with a book in his hand.

In Xu Xingyin's opinion, Xu Chaoming's existence may not be a bad thing.

After all, there are many dandies who have inherited the throne in the capital. If Xu Chaoming had not given Xu Chaoge a sense of urgency, Xu Xingyin would have been afraid that he would be blinded by his own shortcomings and be content to enjoy himself.

Among the married girls, Xu Wanfeng had been married the longest, but her pregnancy was still not moving. In order to keep the family line going, the Chang family successively gave Chang Hongyi two concubines.

Xu Wanfeng felt aggrieved, but had no legitimate reason to vent, and her temper became more and more violent.

Xu Wanlin had been married for more than half a year. She was a smart person. She didn't care about the Prince Zhi's philandering and only focused on playing the role of a good wife, which made the Prince Zhi more and more satisfied with her.

The young couple got along more and more harmoniously.

But Princess Zhi's expectations of Xu Wanlin are more than that. In addition to taking good care of her husband and household chores, a virtuous wife is more importantly required to persuade her husband to make progress and not to devote himself to romantic matters.

Xu Wanlin failed to meet Princess Zhi's requirements, so Princess Zhi made her very angry. Fortunately, now that Xu Wanlin is pregnant with good news, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has eased a little.

As for Xu Wanmian, although it was a blind marriage, she was lucky. The scholar was both knowledgeable and had excellent character. The couple both liked poetry and had a lot in common. In addition, Xu Wanmian was marrying down, so the scholar's family naturally had no way to control her, so their life was very smooth.

Xu Wanxia, ​​who also married down from her husband's family, did not have a better life than Xu Wanmian, and her clothing and appearance were inferior to those of her sisters.

Xu Wanxia was pregnant before she entered the family. Bai's mother was very bothered by this and often criticized Xu Wanxia for being "improper".

After getting married, Bai Shaotong quit his job at the theater and used Xu Wanxia's dowry to open a shop, but business did not seem to be good. He lost a lot of money and was later involved in a counterfeit scandal and went bankrupt completely.

After their son was born, the family had more places to spend money. Bai Shaotong became more depressed after his business failed. Life was not easy for him. Bai's mother also had many complaints and became more rude to Xu Wanxia.

There was no income at home, and Xu Wanxia had no choice but to ask her parents for money to make ends meet.

Some people grow up and lose their edges through stumbling; some people still don’t know how to compromise after going through so many hardships; some people can use wisdom to turn unhappiness into a smooth road; some people play a good hand of cards badly...

A small Duke's Mansion depicts an intriguing picture of life.

Xu Xingyin was just sighing when she heard Jing Zhichen and Xu Chaoge discussing eight-legged essay. Chen took the opportunity to suggest that the female family members go boating on the lake together. After she finished speaking, she pulled Xu Xingyin into the backyard, wanting to have a private chat with her daughter.

As soon as she entered the room, Chen asked hurriedly, "How is your Highness treating you?"

"Your Highness treats me very well." Xu Xingyin smiled, "How is mother these days?"

"Everything is fine with me."

After Chen finished speaking, she sighed, "I heard that Empress Xiao Lu had made things difficult for you, which really made me anxious. Empress Xiao Lu has never been a good-tempered person, and you are a junior, what good can you expect from falling into her hands? It's all my fault, I should have been more resolute at the beginning! The Eastern Palace is really not a good place to be!"

"Mother, be careful what you say!"

Xu Xingyin lowered his voice to remind him, and then he spoke to comfort him.

"Don't worry, mother. You know His Highness's personality. He is not someone who will suffer any loss. Every time, we are unscathed, but Empress Lu gets into trouble. I think she should have learned her lesson after a few lessons. Besides, we rarely live in the East Palace. We live outside the palace, so even if she wants to find trouble with me, she won't have the chance."

Chen's face looked better after hearing this, but she was still worried.

"That's true, but she is your elder after all, so she has ways to control you."

"Mother is right."

Having laid the groundwork here, Xu Xingyin pretended to be embarrassed and continued, "If you want to embarrass me, you naturally have a reason. I would like to discuss this matter with my mother."
