Hard to be a good wife

"The main reason for calling the Crown Princess here today is for Ya'er's marriage, and I hope His Highness will forgive me." Liyang Hou said with his hands clasped in salute.

"You are welcome, Lord Hou. Since we have become a family of in-laws, we are naturally a family. You can discuss anything with the Crown Princess."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your generosity!" Logically, married daughters rarely return to their mother's home except for festivals.

But Tang Yue lived in an information age, and various public opinions filled his life, so he didn't mind what people said, and he didn't intend to accept the restrictions of this society for these exchanges that seemed normal to him.

"Father, did Duke Heng bring up the matter of my sister's marriage?"

"Yes, in fact, Duke Heng has already mentioned it to Weifu several times, but Weifu is reluctant to part with Ya'er, at least let her pass this year."

Tang Yue nodded, "It's supposed to be like this. Is there anything unclear about that matter?" Asking him to come back to discuss should be because he really has something to ask him?

Marquis Liyang glanced at Prince Zhao and coughed. Tang Yue blinked and stared at Prince Zhao for a few seconds.

Prince Zhao raised his brows, got up and said, "I heard that there is a playground designed by the princess herself in the mansion, I just want to go and see it."

"Yes, I will ask the steward to take you there." Marquis Liyang didn't feel any guilt about driving him away, and dismissed him generously.

When Prince Zhaoyi left, Tang Yue asked with a smile: "Father, what do you want to ask me?"

Liyanghou asked him to sit closer, "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that it's hard to speak with His Highness around."

Tang Yue waited for him to continue, and the Marquis of Liyang glanced at Mrs. Hou and said, "You also know that Duke Heng is one of the Dukes of the Seven Kingdoms, and he also holds tens of thousands of soldiers in his hands. Now we are closely tied to Prince Zhao. Now that we are together, if we marry again with the Duke of Heng, this... Your Majesty has become more and more suspicious in recent years, afraid that the situation will be bad."

"Then why didn't you tell the matter in front of His Royal Highness just now? Don't you want to hear his opinion?"

Liyang Hou glared, "What if His Highness disagrees with this marriage?" How could he be willing to give up such a good son-in-law?

Mrs. Hou had been sitting quietly until this time when she spoke slowly, "Yue'er, we all notice your kindness to Ya'er, why don't you go and talk to His Highness about the powerful relationship between them, so that he can have a good relationship with Ya'er first?" Prepare yourself."

"Ma'am, the marriage between the Hou's Mansion and the Duke of Heng's Mansion is not a new one. Your Highness must know it. If he wanted to object, he would have opposed it a long time ago. Besides, he doesn't seem to have the right to object, right?"

If the seven younger sisters in his family can only marry with Prince Zhao's consent, wouldn't he be exhausted?

"..." Liyang Hou and his wife had black lines all over their heads, this kid spoke too recklessly, and it was thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was willing to pamper him.

Prince Zhao followed the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion to the courtyard where Tang Yue lived before. It was not the first time for him to come here, and it was not the first time he had seen those strange equipment, but he had never played with them.

In order to lose weight for Ping Shun, Tang Yue built a basketball stand, uneven poles, treadmills, and plum blossom stakes in the yard, and the most popular one was the basketball stand.

The aristocrats in the Southern Jin Dynasty all liked to play polo, cuju was played occasionally, and basketball was a completely new sport, and this sport was welcomed by the majority of noble youths as soon as it was introduced to the Marquis of Liyang.

Prince Zhao didn't really come to play with these things. He walked around the yard, opened the door and walked into the house where Tang Yue lived before. The furnishings in the house hadn't changed at all, and it was spotless and clean. It was obvious that someone had carefully cleaned it. .

The butler followed carefully and waited on him, and asked, "Your Highness, Xiao Lang has also made a lot of fun things for the ladies. Do you want to go and have a look?"

"Oh? Is there anything else suitable for girls?"

"Hehe, yes, but Xiao Lang said that it is only suitable for children to play. There are so many tricks like swings, seesaws, slides, etc."

Prince Zhao's face remained normal, and he asked tentatively, "I heard that Tang Yue grew up on the border, and Gu happened to be there for four years. I don't know where he is?"

Tang Yue's background was not a secret in the aristocratic circle, and Prince Zhao checked his background not once or twice, but the results were really weird.

If someone asked this question, the steward would definitely have fooled it with the three words "I don't know", but His Royal Highness asked the question.He didn't dare to fool around casually.

"It's in a small village outside Rongcheng, what's it called...Giethoorn Village, but according to Shan, he wasn't in Giethoorn Village when he found Xiaolang."

"Oh? Where is that?"

"This... I don't know. Why don't I go down and call Shan to ask?"

"Shan, is that the old slave with good martial arts who followed Tang Yue?" Prince Zhao was deeply impressed by Shan. When he was in the Earth Temple, he was able to save the day.

"Yes, he is strong in martial arts and loyal, Xiao Lang also trusts him."

Prince Zhao nodded, and continued to ask: "Back then Lord Hou only sent a servant to pick him up?"

The butler's smile froze, and he lowered his head and replied, "Yes, but Shan is not an ordinary slave, and no one else can get close to him."

"Gu also heard that he fell ill once on the way, and he almost failed to recover."

The housekeeper's cold sweat broke out, and I don't know why His Royal Highness always insists on this matter today, is it to fight the injustice for the Crown Princess?

"Xiao Lang suffered a lot since he was a child, his body was weak, and he couldn't stand the turbulence of the long journey, so he fell ill. Although it seemed dangerous, he survived safely in the end. I heard from the mountain that the prescription was Xiao Lang. It's open."

"Oh, how did I hear that Gu asked a doctor to prescribe the medicine at the beginning?"

"At that time, Xiao Lang must have had a fever, so he was not sober."

Prince Zhao also thought so at first, but no matter what happened, the Tang Yue he knew and the orphan who lived in a hard-working border village had changed so much that he couldn't even imagine that they were the same person.

Moreover, at that time his name was not Tang Yue at all.

"Then his name was chosen by Lord Hou?"

"No, Xiao Lang's name is... given by his biological mother." The housekeeper lowered his head even lower. Tang Yue's biological mother was from North Vietnam, but they tried their best to conceal this fact.

Even if a few people knew about it, they didn't dare to publicize it.

A child born to a North Vietnamese woman is logically ineligible to inherit the title, let alone marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"How did that Gu hear that he wasn't called by that name when he was at the border, but by..."

Before Prince Zhao could finish his words, the housekeeper knelt down and replied, "Your Highness, please forgive me for your humble status and little knowledge, you...you..."

"Get up, why are you nervous, I just ask casually, I want to know more about the life of the princess."

The housekeeper took a deep breath, "Yes, this subordinate is just...too nervous."

"Get up, take Gu to continue sticking. I heard that there are many things in the mansion that were remodeled after the princess came, so I took Gu to sleep."

"Here."

Prince Zhao turned around and left Tang Yue's room. He saw four maids walking towards him gracefully. He was startled when he saw an outsider, and then he knelt down on the ground in unison, "Servants greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. "

"Head up."

The four maids didn't dare not listen, and raised their heads obediently, revealing four faces that were like fish and wild goose.

These four maids were chosen by Mrs. Hou for Tang Yue back then. They were all beautiful servants. The purpose was very clear, just to confuse Tang Yue's mind with their beauty.

"It's a pity." Prince Zhao sighed.Then he left them and walked out of the yard.

The housekeeper hurriedly followed, thinking secretly about the meaning of the words "it's a pity", is it a pity that the four maids are left unused in this yard, or is it a pity that their beauty can only be reduced to slaves?

If His Highness the Crown Prince takes a fancy to them, then... I don't know how Xiao Lang will feel in his heart.

Should he tell Xiao Lang about it?The butler struggled for a while, but decided not to say anything, why should the newlyweds be upset over such a trivial matter?

Taking Prince Zhao around the mansion aimlessly, the housekeeper pointed out to him all the places Tang Yue had remodeled in the mansion, such as the stove in the kitchen, shovels and kettles of various shapes in the garden, corridors, etc. The lanterns hanging on the ceiling, the tables, chairs and cabinets in the house, and other small things that permeate into life.

The housekeeper secretly sighed: It turns out that this home has been gradually transformed by Xiao Lang in many places, seemingly small.But little by little, it made their lives more convenient.
