[Red Mansion] Married by decree
Chapter 36
The way Yunze and Daiyu get along along the way is that Yunze leads the way, and Daiyu follows a step away, without saying a word along the way.
Yunze is the prince, and the maids and eunuchs in the palace would stop to greet him when they met him.Naturally, she paid more attention to Daiyu who could accompany Yunze.
Daiyu didn't like the feeling of being spied on very much, and would frown whenever she met a palace official.Although Yunze was walking in front, he was always paying attention to Daiyu's side.Seeing this, he walked quietly beside Daiyu, blocking most of the prying eyes.
Although standing beside Daiyu, there is still some distance between him and Daiyu.It was a distance that was neither too close nor too far away, not too far away to make people feel alienated, nor too close to make people feel disgusted.
"Huiyi has met Uncle Anshun."
When the two passed by the imperial garden, they happened to meet the fifth princess who was wandering in the imperial garden.When the fifth princess saw Yunze approaching, she stopped and bowed to Yunze.
"Daiyu has met the princess."
Since she is called Uncle Yunze, she must be a princess.Daiyu looked at the person in front of her who was about the same age as herself, and was not sure which princess it was for a moment.
Xiangzhu once told Daiyu about the general situation of the masters in the palace, but he didn't mention the princess's baby name.Therefore, although Daiyu knew that the princess in front of her was named Hui Yi, she didn't know which one of the four, five, six or three princesses she was.
In this palace, princesses are not called by their baby names. All princesses who have been granted titles are called by their titles, and those who have not been registered are called according to their ranking.Therefore, Daiyu directly called her the princess.
"Miss Lin, excuse me." Huiyi said and helped Daiyu up with her own hands.
Previously, everyone did not know Daiyu's identity, but now it is enough for them to find out.A future Princess Anshun who is favored by the Queen Mother already has enough weight and is enough to be treated with care, even if that person is a princess.
"This is the fifth daughter of the emperor's brother, born of the former emperor's wife."
The current queen is the successor, with only one son under her knees.The fifth princess was born after the Yuan Dynasty, and there were two older brothers on it.
"Miss Lin's legs are better?"
"Thank you Fifth Princess for your concern, Daiyu's leg is fine."
"Huiyi still has something to do, so I won't bother Uncle Huang and Miss Lin. If Miss Lin enters the palace again, she can sit with Huiyi."
Yunze had been waiting for the queen mother and Daiyu in the queen mother's palace, and did not know that the emperor had announced the news of the imperial physician for Daiyu, so naturally she did not know that Daiyu's knee was swollen.Now hearing the fifth princess' question, she frowned.Then he remembered that Daiyu had walked with him for so long, and he frowned even more.
"What happened to your leg?" Yunze didn't ask directly, but waited for the fifth princess to leave before asking.
"Reporting to the lord, Daiyu just knocked accidentally. The doctors in the palace have seen it, but it's just swollen, and it's not a serious problem. The swelling will subside in a few days."
Yunze didn't believe it was accidental, but since Daiyu said so, he didn't expose it.However, this account was charged to the Rongguo Mansion, and Quande who was beside Yunze got Yunze's instructions, so he walked to Daiyu's other side and supported her.Daiyu couldn't resist Yunze's kindness, so she accepted it.
Since then, Daiyu kept her head slightly lowered, wondering what she was thinking.Yunze thought for a while and then broke the silence between the two: "Yard, Miss Lin still likes it?"
Although Daiyu was thinking about other things, she kept paying attention to the outside world. When she heard Yunze's question, she raised her head to look at him and replied, "Daiyu likes that yard very much, and the lord is bothered."
"As long as you like it, the king was worried that the craftsmen in the capital would not be able to produce the charm of Jiangnan."
"My lord hired first-class masters, no craftsmen from Yangzhou can compare to them."
"If we talk about gardens, it's better for Su Yang. Although I have lived in the capital for a long time, I prefer the winding corridors and quiet paths of Su Yang's garden."
When Yunze said this, his eyes were far-reaching.There are too many things that Daiyu doesn't understand in those eyes, but there are also things that Daiyu can empathize with - yearning and responsibility.
Daiyu's carriage is waiting outside the palace gate.Seeing that Daiyu was helped out by Quande, Xiangzhu hurried forward a few steps and took Daiyu from Quande's hand.
"girl……"
"I am fine."
Although Daiyu said nothing was wrong, Xiangzhu was still worried, and looked at Daiyu again, only then remembered that Yunze was still there, and hurriedly knelt down to apologize.
"Xiangzhu didn't salute the prince in time, so please forgive me."
Seeing this, Daiyu's heart warmed up. If Xiangzhu didn't really care about her, why didn't she even forget to salute to Yunze, so she cared about herself first.
"Get up. Your girl hurt her knee, so help her into the car first. "
The coachman quickly put the stool away, and Xiangzhu took Daiyu's hand to get him into the carriage.
"Father once said that the princess should have the courage to be the mistress of the prince's mansion."
Yunze stopped in front of the car for a while, and finally spoke.All the people in Quande were watching their hearts, trying their best to pretend to be a mural, as if they hadn't heard anything.
But Daiyu in the car was stunned for a long time when she heard this.It was only then that he understood the meaning of these words, how could the Supreme Emperor say such things to Yun Ze, I am afraid that these words were said by Yun Ze himself.
Yunze's words were not intended to warn Daiyu, but to remind Daiyu what to do in order to please the Supreme Emperor.
"Thank you, my lord, for clarifying the confusion. Daiyu knows how to act." Daiyu has never understood why the Supreme Emperor didn't like her from the first time, but Yunze's words confuse her.
"If you have something unclear, you can send someone to ask this king."
Accompanied by the driver's voice, the carriage drove away slowly, with the sound of hooves and wheels.Yunze watched Daiyu's car go away, then turned to ask about other things.
Quande had already inquired clearly about what happened to the Supreme Emperor. Although he didn't know what happened in the hall, he knew the general trend.
"The Jia family came up with this idea." Yunze thought for a while, and then figured out the key point.It's just that a person like Aunt Zhen's family can be so easily used as a gun.
Even if he is not very familiar with Aunt Zhen and Mother Jia, Yunze also knows that the methods of the two are not at the same level.For a person who can gain the status of the prince's nanny in the palace, his methods and scheming are extraordinary.
Yunze would be the first to say that she couldn't see through the conspiracy of the Rongguo Mansion.That being the case, what made Aunt Zhen's family willingly take advantage of the Rongguo Mansion at the risk of offending the future princess.
"Quande, send someone to investigate, what is the purpose of the Zhen family's coming to Beijing this time?"
Before Yunze's sedan chair arrived at the palace, there was a sedan chair waiting for him at the gate of the palace.
The sedan chair stopped not far from the door, and beside the sedan chair stood a man dressed as a maidservant.The material of the maid's clothes is pretty good, the patterns and styles, and even the accessories on her body are all in the style of Jiangnan, and she is not from the capital at first glance.
Daiyu had just separated from Yunze, so the sedan chair waiting outside would naturally not belong to Daiyu.Knowing that it wasn't Daiyu's, Quande naturally didn't look sideways, without any intention of telling Yunze.
The maid standing beside the sedan chair saw Yunze's sedan chair approaching, and said something to the people in the sedan chair.Not long after, the car curtain was opened a crack, and the tip of the jade-like fingers could still be vaguely seen.
Yunze's sedan chair was walking towards the door, the porter saw the sedan chair approaching, and knelt down.The person standing next to the other sedan chair also knelt down.
"Welcome the prince back to the mansion."
Yunze saw the sedan chair parked at the door early in the morning, so what if he just saw it.The person in the sedan chair is not qualified to let Yunze's sedan chair listen to him.The sedan chair directly passed over the people kneeling on the ground and planned to enter the mansion.
Seeing this, the maidservant beside the sedan chair was a little anxious. When the sedan chair hadn't fully entered the door, a melodious and crisp voice came from the sedan chair: "My lord! It's inconvenient for me to greet my lord while I'm away, so please forgive me."
The bearers in the Prince's Mansion have better manners than other families, and they will never stop when they hear someone calling, otherwise they would have been replaced long ago.
Before the person in the sedan chair finished speaking, Yunze's sedan chair had already entered the palace, but he completely ignored the sedan chair outside and the people in it.The people in the sedan chair were gripping the curtain of the sedan chair very hard, and there were layers of folds where they were gripping.
"girl……"
"Go and deliver the greeting card."
"Brother, I would like to trouble you to help send another greeting card." The maid smiled and stuffed another purse to the concierge.
The person in the sedan chair was none other than Zhen Ruolian who currently lives in Rongguo Mansion. She came to Prince Anshun's mansion an hour ago to ask to see Yun Ze.Zhen Ruolian handed over the greeting card, but was told that Yunze was not in the mansion, so she should go back first.
Zhen Ruolian naturally did not go back, but waited outside the palace for an hour.If Yunze hadn't come back now, I'm afraid she would have to wait any longer.
Although Yunze ignored her, Zhen Ruolian did not give up seeing Yunze.She told herself that the prince just didn't remember her voice.After all, the two of them only spoke a few words, so it was normal for them not to recognize their voices.If he reveals his identity, he will definitely meet him.
The concierge weighed the purse in his hand, it was heavier than the one he gave an hour ago.He was happy to leave, and handed over the greeting card to Zhou Changshi.
"Quan De, find out the anti-stasis ointment from last time, and send someone to deliver it to Miss Lin." Yun Ze's first words after entering the door were to ask Quan De to find the medicine for Daiyu.
"The slave will do it now."
Not long after Quan De left, Zhou Changshi walked in.
"My lord, a girl from the Zhen family in Jinling is asking to see my lord outside." Zhou Changshi was brought over without a greeting card, but not any greeting card is eligible for Yunze to pass it on.
"Miss Zhen? Just say that there are no female relatives in the palace, let her go back." Yunze's tone remained the same, but Zhou Changshi shuddered deeply.
"The slave is only wrong, please punish the prince." Zhou Changshi quickly knelt down, and he actually asked the prince for a woman's invitation. Not only was he wrong, but he was also outrageously wrong.In this world, how many princes can receive women in person.
"The fine is half a month's salary."
"Thank you, my lord, for your kindness."
Outside the residence, Zhen Ruolian and the others waited for a long time before seeing a person walking out.That person was still holding Zhen Ruolian's greeting letter in his hand, that person was not Zhou Changshi, but just an ordinary servant.
"My little brother, what does the lord say?" Zhen Ruolian's maidservant hurried over when she saw someone standing at the door, and handed him another pouch before asking.
"My lord said that there are no female relatives in the mansion, so it is inconvenient to receive Miss Zhen, so let her go back." The servant said it straightforwardly as he took the purse containing the broken silver.
"Please, brother." The servant girl replied, and watched the servant go in before turning around and walking towards the sedan chair.
"How's it going?"
"Miss..." The servant girl repeated what the servant had just said, looked at the hand on the car curtain that was grasping the knuckles very hard, hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Miss, what should we do now?"
"Let's go back first."
Zhen Ruolian also knew that today she would never see Yunze no matter what, so she could only go back and think of other ways.
Yunze is the prince, and the maids and eunuchs in the palace would stop to greet him when they met him.Naturally, she paid more attention to Daiyu who could accompany Yunze.
Daiyu didn't like the feeling of being spied on very much, and would frown whenever she met a palace official.Although Yunze was walking in front, he was always paying attention to Daiyu's side.Seeing this, he walked quietly beside Daiyu, blocking most of the prying eyes.
