White Hedge Dream

Chapter 213 Interesting Facts

When it was daylight, Xue Silang threw himself on his big bed. He could no longer open his eyes, but he still couldn't help but chuckle from time to time.

"I won."

"Yun Niang, give me another dance."

The maids listened to Xue Silang's words beside the bed and looked at each other: "It seems that the master is very happy this time." "It's rare to win money." "Yun Niang, the master has said before that she is a famous dancer. Even in the It's also rare to see someone on a boat. "What kind of luck did you have last night?"

Before the maid's laughter ended, noisy footsteps sounded in the yard.

"Shiro!"

"Come out!"

The man's roar followed.

The maids were startled, this sound...

"His uncle, please tell me if you have anything to say, Shiro is still young—"

Mrs. Xue Er's voice also came.

As he spoke, the door was pushed open, and Mr. Xue rushed in angrily. He saw Xue Silang lying on the bed, sleeping and laughing.

Mr. Xue looked around, grabbed the tea on the table and poured it over.

"Still sleeping! Get up!"

…

…

"Uncle, what are you doing?"

Xue Silang fell down beside the bed, with tea on his face and clothes, and no sleepiness at all.

Mrs. Xue Er rushed to speak first: "What did you do yesterday? Why don't you admit your mistake quickly!"

Xue Silang looked confused: "I didn't do anything bad, I just ate, drank and gambled like before..."

Mr. Xue scolded: "Did you take Jingyun to fool around last night?"

Zhou Jingyun?

Mrs. Xue Er looked at Xue Silang with an exclamation: "Are you playing with the Crown Prince? The Crown Prince didn't drive you away?"

Of course she wanted her son to get closer to Zhou Jingyun and have a bright face.

But this week Jingyun had a noble temperament and disdained to associate with Xue Silang and his like.

how?

Is Xue Silang insisting on Zhou Jingyun?

No wonder Mrs. Xue was angry.

Xue Silang had a dazed look on his face, waving his sleeves and standing up with excitement: "Uncle, that's right, the prince begged me to take him to Hualouchuan, haha, the two of us had a great time -"

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Xue grabbed the tea cup on the table and threw it at it: "It's you, you scoundrel, who dares to seduce and abet Jing Yun's reputation!"

Xue Silang was hit, and he glared and hurriedly explained: "Uncle, you are wrong. It was not me who seduced and instigated him. It was the prince who insisted on me taking him with him -"

Mr. Xue sneered: "Jingyun insists that you take him to that kind of place. Listen to this for yourself. Do you believe it?"

Mrs. Xue Er grabbed Xue Silang's arm and said helplessly: "Son, you can't harm the prince. If he becomes a **** like you, what help can we expect from him?"

Xue Silang threw his mother away and shouted: "It's true that he was pestering me and forcing me. I didn't believe it at the time, but it was the truth. I took him there and he had a great time on the boat. He hugged me left and right. , drinking and having fun—ouch—"

Before he could finish his words, Mr. Xue took off his belt and slapped him hard: "How dare you say it? You still have the nerve to say it? It's spread all over the world, and Jingyun's reputation has been ruined by you!"

Xue Silang howled.

"It's unjust—"

….

….

In the Dongyang Hou Mansion, the rice placed in front of Mrs. Hou remained untouched.

"Mrs. Xue asked someone to tell Xue Silang that he had taught Xue Silang a lesson and was banned from kneeling in the ancestral hall for a month." Xu's mother said, "Mr. Xue will also come to see the Marquis in person to apologize."

Mrs. Hou waved her hand: "No need." She sneered again, "If a slap can't make a sound, you can't blame Xue Silang alone."

After saying that, he looked at Huang's mother.

"What's the word on the street?"

Huang's mother's usually upright face showed a little embarrassment: "Madam, those rumors are just nonsense, so don't listen to them."

Thinking of the housekeeper who went out shopping this morning, she rushed back in a panic, not even bothering to buy vegetables and meat, shouting that something had happened and that the prince's reputation had been ruined.

Everyone was baffled by the shouting. After asking, they found out that early in the morning there were rumors on the street that Zhou Jingyun had spent the night on the Hualou boat.

It was the people on the Hualou boat who got off the boat this morning and shouted all over the city, saying that Zhou Jingyun had a happy night with them on the Hualou boat, eating, drinking, and gambling.

Who is this that ruins the reputation of the prince?

The Crown Prince didn't come back last night. Mother Xu hurriedly went to ask someone where the Crown Prince was. Feng'er said that the Crown Prince had sent someone back to deliver the news and he had already gone to court.

Mother Xu thought of yesterday's news that Xue Silang and the Crown Prince were together, so she asked someone to go to Xue's house to ask what was going on.

Now the Xue Mansion has received a reply, confirming that the Crown Prince did go to Hualou Ship last night.

this…

How could the prince go to such a place!

"Madam," Xu's mother said softly, "Even if the prince is gone, it won't be a big deal. Xu was unhappy, so he went to drink some wine to relieve his worries after being encouraged by Xue Silang."

Mrs. Dongyang Hou exclaimed: "He's not happy? He's drinking to drown his sorrows? I'm the one who should drink to drown his sorrows." Then she motioned to Huang's mother, "Go, tell Xue Silang, take me tonight Go to Hualou Boat."

Mother Xu and Mother Huang couldn't laugh or cry. Madam was getting more and more weird.

…

...The queen has entered the imperial mausoleum, and the emperor has resumed his court appearance, but he is a little weak in spirit, and the morning court meeting quickly dispersed.

It was already early and there was no need to go home. A group of officials gathered together to eat on the porch.

"Why is Your Majesty still lack of energy? Still missing the Queen and keeping him awake all day and night?"

"That's not true. The emperor doesn't dare to endure it, for fear that Princess Jinyu will come and reprimand him again."

"Princess Jinyu is quite sensible now and does things decently."

"I know that Your Majesty took care of the little prince, so he didn't sleep well."

"Your Majesty actually takes care of the little prince himself?"

"Your Majesty is truly a loving father."

"Hey, hey, big news. Did you hear the big news last night?"

What's the big news?

These words made the officials look over, holding the food plates in their hands. When they saw an official who had just arrived and was not qualified to go to court, they winked and looked strange.

"Shangguanyue, no, the flower boat that King Chu used to have sailed last night." He said.

The officials scoffed and said, "This is no big news." The next sentence was heard.

"Prince Dongyang went to the boat last night."

Zhou Jingyun? The officials looked slightly surprised. The officials and dignitaries of Hualou Ship rarely went there, not because they wanted to keep themselves clean, but because they were concerned about Shangguan Yue's identity and did not want to get into trouble.

If you want to eat, drink and have fun, there are many good places to visit in Sanqufang.

However, Zhou Jingyun does not have this habit.

"Really?" someone asked with a frown.

"Of course it's true. Everyone on the boat saw it last night, and it spread as soon as we got off the boat," the official said.

The officials couldn't help but talk to each other, "What are you doing?" "Are you depressed after losing your wife?" "Is it to cheer for the King of Chu?"

While they were discussing, I heard a voice asking, "Is it strange to go on a flower boat tour?"

"Of course it's strange, that's Zhou Jingyun." An official said, turning his head as he spoke, his expression froze.

Zhou Jingyun stood aside with a bowl of buns in his hand: "It's because I haven't done these things before, so it's strange."

As he spoke, he took a bite of the buns, gently swung the sleeves of his official robe, and smiled at everyone.

"I'll go there more often, so it won't be a surprise."

…

…

Li Yu returned to the imperial mausoleum again. Although he still lived in the former palace, the charcoal fire and the decoration were much more luxurious than before.

After all, he had a title and became a prince.

The first prince of this generation's royal family.

"So the biggest change in the past two days is that Zhou Jingyun got on the boat?"

Li Yu took a sip of tea and looked at the dancing lights in the room.

Jixiang nodded and added: "Everyone is investigating his intentions. From Xue Silang's mouth, we learned that it was indeed a sudden rise..."

He was interrupted by Li Yu before he finished speaking.

"No need to check," he said, smiling, "I know his intention."

Ah, Master, do you know? The young master and Zhou Jingyun already have a private relationship? Ji Xiang was a little surprised and couldn't help but look at Cai Songnian.

Cai Songnian also looked like he knew, and even snorted and muttered: "What do these two people think of our building ship?"

Which two people? Jixiang felt even more puzzled.

"You don't need to worry about it anymore." Li Yu said and asked with a smile, "Is Miss Bai okay? She entertained Prince Zhou well. Is she happy?"

Little white lady? Ji Xiang nodded: "She didn't stand and leave as usual when the boat was sailing. She entertained Prince Zhou in person. She also accompanied Prince Zhou around and watched songs and dances with Prince Zhou. She was very happy."

There is nothing strange about this, that was Zhou Jingyun, and any woman who could entertain him would be overjoyed.

Little Miss Bai is no exception.

The smile on Li Yu's lips disappeared and he hummed: "As long as she is happy."

Yeah? Why does the young master seem to be unhappy? Ji Xiang scratched his head, inexplicably wanting to say something more.

"I only came once. Prince Zhou hasn't come again in the past two days." He said, and smiled, "Maybe it's because rumors are spreading in the city, and it's hard for Prince Zhou to come again."

After saying that, he saw that Li Yu had no reaction and pointed at the teacup with his finger numbly.

"Also, when I came out this morning, Miss Bai called me and asked me if I came to see you, Master." Jixiang continued.

Li Yu paused with his fingers, raised his eyes slightly and looked at him: "What does she have to say to me?"

"Ms. Bai said she won't go back to live on the boat tonight." Jixiang said, "She also said, sir, you know where she has gone."

Does he know where she is going?

Li Yu understood that he must be going to see the little princess.

She even told him specifically.

The smile on Li Yu's lips spread again, but dropped again the next moment.

That was the place Zhou Jingyun chose. Will Zhou Jingyun be there too, accompanying her?
