Chapter 184: Behind the scenes?
"This first residence is the Yong Palace. King Yong is the younger brother of the late emperor. He has a close relationship with the late emperor's brothers. He is a kind-hearted and has no ambitions. His palace was rewarded by King Yong, who had just been named the prince when the late emperor first ascended the throne."
"And the big mansion opposite Prince Yong's Mansion is the Duke of Ningguo's Mansion."
After getting off the horse, Li Xu stood in front of the Song Mansion and looked around. A tall and graceful red figure stood beside him and pointed at the two mansions beside him and introduced.
Li Xu turned his head to look at Princess Lingyu who was talking beside him, and smiled and said, "Your Highness Yong is the princess's uncle. The princess actually called him an old man. Aren't you afraid that Your Highness Yong will blame him when you hear the blame?"
Qin Qing curled his lips and said, "Blame? If the old man dares to glare at me, I will strip his beard naked."
When Li Xu heard this, he knew that the eldest princess had a deep relationship with her Uncle Yong, so he was not afraid at all.
My thinking suddenly scattered, as if many costume films and TV dramas had an old prince who looked honest and unambitious, but often in the end it was discovered that this old prince was actually the mastermind behind the usurpation of the throne.
I don’t know if this Prince Yong has the same character. On the surface, people and animals are harmless, but in fact they are a big villain behind their backs.
"what's on your mind?"
Qin Qing, who was standing beside him, suddenly asked as he looked at Li Xu's strange expression.
"I suddenly felt that His Royal Highness the Princess was a little strange today?"
Li Xu smiled slightly and said seriously as Princess Lingyu said.
"Ah? Strange? Where is it?" Qin Qing looked up and down at himself, but found nothing unusual, and looked at Li Xu in confusion.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just said it casually, the princess doesn't need to mind."
Li Xu originally wanted to tease the princess with local love words, but the light in his eyes had already caught a glimpse of Yu Yu jumping out of the carriage and coming over, so he changed his mind temporarily.
Qin Qing looked at Li Xu's slender eyebrows and frowned majesticly, opened her mouth, and saw Yu Yu coming over and still didn't ask questions.
What is this guy talking about? Why did he suddenly stop talking?
She was very curious about what was wrong with her, but Li Xu suddenly stopped talking, which was really uncomfortable.
But I can't chase and ask, after all, that's my cousin's sweetheart.
"Brother Xu, what are you talking about with Sister Qing? Aunts have come out, let's go over quickly."
Yu Yu pointed to a group of people at the gate of the Song Mansion not far away and shouted happily. Li Xu looked up and saw a beautiful lady in a goose yellow dress leading a group of maids and servants out of the gate, looking at this side.
After looking around for a while, a smile appeared on his face and he waved to Yu Yu and Qin Qing.
Yu Yuhuan shouted, trotted a few steps, rushed into the noble lady's arms and acted coquettishly.
Qin Qing also showed a soothing smile on his face and followed him over.
Yu Yu called his aunt and Qin Qing called his aunt, and Li Xu knew that this should be the wife of the chief assistant Song Mu.
Mrs. Song hugged Yu Yu in her arms, and her other hand was holding Qin Qing's hand. The smile on her face was gentle and doting, and she obviously loved both girls very much.
Yu Yu, who had been in the arms of Mrs. Song for a moment, still did not forget her brother Xu after all. He raised his head and pointed to Li Xu's direction, and said a few words to Mrs. Song, with a shy and excited expression on his face.
Mrs. Song teased her a few words and looked at Li Xu.
Li Xu knew it was time for him to greet him, so he walked up and bowed to him by his juniors, and then said seriously: "Li Xu has seen his wife. He didn't expect that his wife was so young. If it weren't for Xiao Yu'er's introduction just now, I almost thought that his wife was Xiao Yu'er's cousin again."
Mrs. Song was stunned, and the smile on her face, which was originally reserved, suddenly bloomed. The more she looked at the boy in front of her, the more she liked him. She actually took the initiative to hold Li Xu's hand and smiled: "What a good child. It's okay to be so handsome, but she is so good at speaking. No wonder my little fish was abducted by you."
Li Xu waved his hand with a "shy" look on his face and said, "Madam has misunderstood. In fact, Xiaoyuer is too charming, so I was kidnapped by her to the capital."
Yu Yu laughed and scolded Li Xu for being ashamed when he heard this, while Qin Qing looked at Li Xu with a look of surprise.
Mrs. Song smiled even happier, looking at Li Xu's expression, unable to hide her like.
The maids and servants behind Mrs. Song were stunned and looked at each other one by one, even thinking that they were dazzled.
Although Mrs. Song has always been kind-hearted and gentle, no one dared to joke so easily in front of him. After all, she is the wife of the chief minister of the Great Qin Dynasty and the sister-in-law of the current empress dowager. Even the princesses and the maids of the noble families respect her very much.
However, the heroic and handsome young man in front of him was as casual as before Mrs. Song. Although his words were frivolous, he gave people a feeling of sincerity, naturalness and no artificiality, which made Mrs. Song, who had just met, treat him differently.
Some of the flexible minds were already thinking in their hearts that they wanted to get along with this young master. Even if they couldn't curry favor with this young master, they couldn't neglect them.
"The more you look at this child, the more you like it. Your third aunt used to tell me that Brother Xu was so good, but I don't believe it. Today, I was a good child who felt distressing. Hurry up, don't stand here, hurry up and enter the mansion, take a shower and change clothes, and have a rest. The kitchen is ready, and the banquet will be held after my master comes back."
At this time, Liu Jian also stepped forward to greet Mrs. Song.
Li Qin and Zhang Mingrong also gave a regular greeting. Seeing Mrs. Song pulling Li Xu warmly and intimately, both women were a little surprised, but when they thought of Li Xu's mysterious identity, they felt relieved again.
I think my brother is indeed from an extraordinary background and is so intimate with the wife of the chief minister. It seems that my brother's mother is indeed not an ordinary woman.
A man who was thinking that Mr. Li was indeed not an ordinary person, and it was naturally unspeakable to be able to be so close to the Chief Secretary’s wife.
Such a noble man not only saved himself, but also treated him so well, and felt full of gratitude and happiness in his heart.
After Mrs. Song saw the ceremony with everyone, she smiled happily, holding Yu Yu with one hand and Li Xu with the other.
Qin Qing walked behind and looked at Li Xu's back in front of him, looking a little aggrieved.
My aunt is too fond of this kid. Those who don’t know about it think it is your old son who has been separated for many years.
He silently complained in his heart, but he did not forget to instruct the servants of the Song Mansion to properly resettle Li Xu's family.
