Celebrating the Year of the Fish: A Princess is Not a Concubine[GL]

[Thirteen]

Late autumn drove the greedy Li Daoxue out of the mansion, and after returning to the mansion, he asked the housekeeper to call all the servants over, and said to them that even if the princess is sympathetic to the servants, she is always generous to the servants. We must not let them be deceived!

Wan Qiu stood at the top and said to the servants: "Rules are rules, masters are masters, and slaves are slaves. If slaves want to put their minds on the master's head, then Li Daoxue will end!"

"Yes, the slave servant knows."

The servants agreed in unison, and the matter was over.

When he went to see Wei Huanian in the study in late autumn, Sun Guoxu was about to pack his things and leave.

This time it was Wei Huanian who personally rewarded him with the money, and Sun Guoxu told him before leaving: "The young master has just started to improve, the princess should follow him more on weekdays, if the young master wants to see that person, let him see, don't stop me on."

Wei Huanian only said: "I can save it, let me think about this matter later."

"Yes," after Sun Guoxu finished speaking, he picked up the medicine box and said, "I have to rush to see the doctor at the imperial concubine Chen, so I won't bother the princess."

Wei Huanian said: "Doctor Sun, walk slowly."

Sun Guoxu bowed his hands and said: "The humble minister will leave, and the princess will stay."

After the person left, Wei Huanian looked at Wei Zrui who was sitting blankly by the side, thinking about what Dr. Sun said, if the young master wants to see that person, let him see him, but don't stop him——

The person that Sun Taiyi said was undoubtedly Zhou Jinyu.

However, if Ah Z wanted to see Zhou Jinyu, she didn't have much opinion. After all, she was very familiar with Zhou Jinyu.

But, how to get Zhou Jinyu to get along with Ah Z more?

Would she like it?

Wan Qiu stood for a while, and said: "Princess, Li Daoxue has been kicked out of the mansion, he is cursing, it seems that he is not reconciled."

Wei Huanian asked: "Have you settled the money for him?"

"It's over!" Wan Qiu immediately said: "Your maidservant decides for herself, count the half month as a full month, and give it to him."

Wei Huanian said: "You did a good job in this matter, even if he has something in his heart, he can't single out us."

Wan Qiu was a little embarrassed and said: "I have been with you for so long, there are some things that you don't need to ask the princess personally."

Wei Huanian nodded.

Wan Qiu tried again: "Princess, will you arrange for the young master to invite a husband later, the princess, or will the slaves go to the eldest prince and let him decide?"

"Please sir?" Wei Huanian paused after hearing the words, thought for a while, and then said: "Let's put this on hold for now, Ah Z has just improved, so don't let him see outsiders."

"Yes, princess." Wan Qiu answered with her head bowed, suddenly remembered something, took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "Your servant entered the palace with you yesterday, and before leaving, Mrs. Xiao Shunzi from the empress's palace Tell the slaves that His Majesty will go hunting in the eastern suburbs today."

When Wei Huanian heard the words, he just smiled: "Oh? What else did he say?"

"He also said that if the princess wants to see His Majesty, she can make arrangements early..." Wan Qiu drew the end of her voice, staring at Wei Huanian cautiously, waiting for Wei Huanian's reaction.

Wei Huanian just smiled casually, and said in a deep voice: "Father hates the palace people inside the palace walls the most, colluding with each other outside the palace, you should also know how the fourth brother was imprisoned in the clan mansion. Someone is playing tricks on us."

"Ah?" Wan Qiu suddenly opened his mouth wide, and his face was full of disbelief: "If that's the case, wouldn't there be a thief in the empress's palace? Princess, do you want to inform your empress?"

Wei Huanian thought for a while, and then said: "This foreign thief hasn't been around for a while, I remember, that Xiao Shunzi is now the head of Fengqi Palace, right?"

Wan Qiu nodded: "Yes, the Empress Dowager personally promoted her the year before."

"So..." Wei Huanian smiled and said, "Then we don't need to worry about it."

"Eh? Why can't the servant understand more and more, what are you talking about, princess?"

Before Wan Qiu could react, she saw that Wei Huanian had already taken Wei Zrui's hand and walked out. Wan Qiu stared at their backs for a long time before she understood the meaning of Wei Huanian's words.

Over the years, Wei Huanian's thoughts have been entirely focused on Wei Zrui.

In the first few years, she was able to plan for the affairs of the eldest prince Wei Chenglu, but after all, she was still no match for the emperor's favor towards Zichen Palace.The emperor favored Chen noble concubine Zhao Zhen, and even favored her second son Wei Hong.

In the early years, Wei Hong and the eldest prince Wei Chenglu were fighting for power in the court, and while the eldest prince was going to Lingnan to provide disaster relief, they stumbled and wronged the eldest prince for embezzling disaster relief funds.The emperor only listened to the one-sided words of the magistrate of Yong'an County, and locked the eldest prince in the clan mansion for so many years without asking whether it was indiscriminate or not.

She heard the news that the eldest prince was imprisoned that day, and rode overnight to Yong'an, the disaster-stricken county.When she finally found the evidence and asked someone to enter the palace with the evidence to meet the emperor, the emperor's attitude had already revealed everything.

The emperor is the son of heaven, and he exists like a god.

Son of Heaven, you can't go wrong.

Even if the emperor is at fault, so what?

He is the Son of Heaven, and what is wrong is also right.

Wei Huanian had already seen these things clearly, but the letters sent by the eldest prince Wei Chenglu almost filled the cabinet, so how could she not understand what he was thinking?It's just that the emperor's mind has always been deep, so how can a mere prince who has been abolished as a prince be able to influence him.

Wei Huanian was full of thoughts, but she didn't stop walking. She took Wei Zrui's little hand and walked out all the way. As she walked, Wei Zrui suddenly stopped moving.

Wei Huanian stopped and asked, "Az, what's wrong?"

Seeing Wei Zrui standing by the pool, staring at something motionless, Wei Huanian followed his gaze and saw a few red koi in the pond leaping out of the water.

Wei Huanian knelt down and asked him, "Do you like it?"

Wei Zrui didn't react, and was still staring at the fish in the pond.

At this time, a little maid walked to the pond and scattered a handful of fish food.

In an instant, thousands of little goldfish jumped up to grab food. Wei Zrui stared at the group of jumping fish without blinking, and the light in his eyes gradually condensed.

Wei Huanian was stunned, Sun Guoxu said that Ah Z might recover slowly, is it true?

In the past, Ah Z would never be interested in anything, but at this moment, he was watching the goldfish jumping in the pond. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and told the maid in the distance: "Come here."

Seeing Wei Huanian waving his hand, the little servant girl immediately stepped forward to salute: "My servant, see the princess, see the young master, what is the princess' order?"

Wei Huanian stretched out his hand: "Give it to me."

The little maid took a while to realize that the princess wanted the fish food in her hand, so she quickly offered it with both hands.

Wei Huanian took the exquisite box of fish food, and put it in front of Wei Zrui: "Ah Z, come and feed them, okay?"

Unexpectedly, Wei Zrui didn't even look at it, and suddenly pushed Wei Huanian away, and ran forward alone.

"Az, where are you going?" Wei Huanian asked quickly.

Wei Zrui didn't turn his head, his calf ran fast.

Wei Huanian ordered: "Stop him!"

"Yes, princess!"

It didn't matter if he ran away, all the servants nearby panicked, they all stopped their work, and immediately wanted to arrest this precious young master.

But among the dozens of servant girls, none of them dared to grab his arm. After all, Wei Zrui always repulsed outsiders from touching him, so how could they dare to grab him? People are all around a child, running with him, it looks funny and funny.

Wei Zrui ran forward all the way, and the servants followed him all the way. When he crossed the pond, bypassed the rockery, and ran all the way to the outer hall, he suddenly stopped.

I saw him stepping over the threshold alone, broke in, and began to rummage at a wooden frame in the corner. There were a bunch of calligraphy and paintings in the frame.

He opened a pair, no, throw it away.

Opened another pair, and it wasn't, and continued to throw it away.

He stood up when he had almost finished flipping through all the calligraphy and paintings, as if he was thinking, why did the portrait he was looking for disappear?

At this moment, Wei Huanian walked in and asked a little harshly, "Are you looking for this?"

Hearing the sound, Wei Zrui turned his head. When he saw the calligraphy and painting scroll in Wei Huanian's hand, his eyes lit up. He moved his calf quickly and ran to Wei Huanian, staring blankly at the portrait in her hand.

Wei Huanian frowned and asked, "Did you run around just to find this?"

Wei Zrui just stared at the scroll without reacting.

Wei Huanian tried his best to make himself look normal, and then said in a subdued tone: "Do you know that you can easily hurt yourself when you run?"

Wei Zrui still ignored her, all his thoughts were on the scroll in Wei Huanian's hand.

Wei Huanian continued: "If Ah Z is injured, mother will be sad. If mother is sad, she wants to destroy this painting. Do you want mother to destroy this painting?"

After Wei Huanian finished speaking, Wei Zrui's eyes were still blank, and she suddenly felt that what she said was a bit heavy.

At this time, her heart was beating drums, and she was also betting that Ah Z would compromise because of Zhou Jinyu's portrait, just like when she was in the Zhou Mansion today, she only threatened him if he was disobedient , it was like never seeing Zhou Jinyu again.

That time, she won the bet.

But this time, she was unsure again.

What if Ah Z starts to go crazy because of her harsh words?

At this time, Wei Huanian regretted it.

But to her surprise, Wei Zrui just raised his head, glanced at her, and lowered his head again.

Wei Huanian was stunned by his reaction, this is...

Are you compromising yourself?

She suppressed the excitement in her heart, and ordered: "Az, you obey your mother obediently, and mother will give you this portrait, okay?"

Wei Zrui lowered his head in silence for a while, then suddenly raised his head, looked at Wei Huanian, and blinked slightly.

Wei Huanian's heart suddenly surged with fear, she wasn't sure if Wei Zrui was responding to her, she wasn't sure if it was a coincidence that Wei Zrui looked at her and blinked this time, but——

She no longer had the courage to try again. The two temptations just now seemed to have exhausted all her strength.

So, she held her breath, stretched out her hand, and handed the portrait to Wei Zrui.

I saw Wei Zrui stretch out his small hand, took the long scroll portrait in his hand, then turned around his small body, walked to the corner, turned his back to the quiet servants in the room, and unfolded that painting.

On the top of the painting, a young man dressed in a pink shirt stands gracefully under a peach blossom tree holding a peach blossom fan. The inscription on the right side of the portrait is, Tianshun Ninth Year Shenshi Three Quarters, Tang Zhongnian painting.

On the left side, someone wrote a name in flamboyant characters: Zhou Jinyu.Looking at the handwriting, it is obvious that the handwriting of the artist Tang Zhongnian is the same as that of the painter Tang Zhongnian.

And around the three characters "Zhou Jinyu", there are several lifelike red koi painted. Perhaps the artist named Tang Zhongnian wanted to make the icing on the cake, maybe he saw that the three characters "Zhou Jinyu" were written too ugly , and then specially drew a few red koi around the word "Zhou Jinyu".

Wei Huanian suddenly realized that Ah Z was at the side of the pool just now, he was stunned when he saw the goldfish in the pool, and then quickly came back to search for the portrait.Could it be that the goldfish in the pond reminded him of this calligraphy and painting?

All the servants in the room held their breath, and they didn't even dare to breathe out, for fear of startling the young master who was appreciating the portrait wholeheartedly.

Wei Huanian waved his hand and told everyone to retreat, and the servants retreated silently as if they had been pardoned.

Wei Huanian looked at Wei Zrui for a long while, feeling mixed feelings in his heart. Seeing Ah Z's current state, it must be Zhou Jinyu.But if Ah Z blindly only relies on her, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

The only thing that made her feel lucky was that Ah Z was finally willing to eat dinner. Although he didn't eat much, he finally stopped going on a hunger strike.

At night, after all the servants were asleep, a black figure suddenly jumped down from the roof of the Princess Mansion with a light kungfu, came to a door, pushed it open and entered.

When the man in black saw Wei Huanian in front of the window, he knelt down and saluted: "Master, there is news."
