Chapter 40 Interests and Prejudices
Yu Zhaoyi was a little confused about why the wind direction changed and why Xingchun’s current action line was so complete and clear.
Empress Tian is a famous family and is the most elegant and generous. The whereabouts that she can ask Xia Xin to find out today must be what the queen intends to put on the surface. Otherwise, she would not have known it. Otherwise, why did Xia Xin go out twice, but only bring news of her whereabouts after Xingchun returned to the palace.
That must be because before Xingchun returned to the palace, the matter of giving gifts was kept secret from him.
The key point among them must be Min and Princess herself. I think she mentioned Xingchun.
This Min and the princess didn't even think about complaining about themselves, and they were really the daughter of the Gu family. Yu Zhaoyi sighed in her heart as she looked at the fruit in the plate.
It would be a pity if such a beautiful and beautiful daughter married Lao Qi to the palace in the future and stayed in the palace wall for the rest of her life.
In Fengyi Hall, Zhou Qing and Zhou Zhou gave a big gift in a serious manner, and were warmly helped up by Lian Xia, and sat on the embroidery mat beside her.
The queen sat upright in the main hall, smiling kindly, and said that although it was summer in April, she still called hot milk with a little cold. She also asked the palace servants to send some warm and tonic ingredients for Pueraria ginseng to Zhou Qing to take them back. I think she knew his poor health.
Zhou Qing also smiled and thanked the queen, and said the loving words of the emperor's grandmother, but did not mention the incident of Zhou Guangming in the palace. She was originally here to invite her to rest assured, either to behave well or to find attention. She said more and made mistakes, so why show herself?
The queen loved Zhou Qing for a while and was sensible, and she also felt sorry for Zhou Qing for her childhood and lost her orphans. The younger generations have always been more partial to Zhou Qing’s grandchildren. It is often said that the ancestors love their eldest grandchildren, and it is not without reason for their grandparents to love their youngest son. In addition to raising them in the palace, Zhou Qing is also the only one who was weaned and was named the prince at the age of weaning.
The queen became the queen and said, Zhou Qing listened, quietly like a noble princess. It was just the time to speak that the queen gave her a banquet and gave her clothes and materials. When Zhou Qing saw a plate of loquats brought out by the palace servant, she looked at it for a while.
Lian Xia said funnyly that Jingyang originally did not have this season, and it was Min and Princess's filial piety. Since it was a rare thing, I would taste it all the whole palace.
Zhou Qing didn't know what the queen meant, but she didn't take any credit for Min and the princess, and it was also considered that her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got along well. Zhou Qing stood up and thanked her, and then talked about it. At the beginning of the month, she went to the British Duke's Mansion, and everyone went to listen to the strategies of military strategy and went to the garden alone.
Just as he was talking about the moment he was greedy to see that Wan Lian in the Shuixie had been wet and was so embarrassed, Xingchun came in from outside the hall, smiling all over and standing aside.
Zhou Qing smiled slightly and praised the exquisiteness of Wu Yue in the Duke of England's house. There are many amazing things about Shui Yi. She was so dirty that she was like a naughty boy. It was Prince Gu who borrowed his old clothes to relieve himself.
Zhou Qing didn't say why there was no servant following him, nor why he didn't have any spare clothes in the passenger carriage and horses when he went out, but only said that he was a naughty child.
The queen didn't think much about it. Just when Zhou Qing said she was going to repay the gift, Xingchun answered. "I'm afraid it's a coincidence. When my maid came to the British Duke's mansion today, she heard that the prince was sick again and she didn't get better in three or five days. The mansion was not surprised. But if His Highness the Prince visited him, he would probably not see anyone."
Zhou Qing's smile condensed. Thinking that, it was true that in the past ten years, Princess Min and Princess have seen her frequently, and she has seen her brother only a handful of times. She doesn't feel sorry for her. She said that she was on a whim and that she was not well-behaved, so she wouldn't cause trouble for everyone.
The queen sighed a few words, Gu Yubin, this child is also pitiful. The root cause of the disease since childhood is also a cold and weak disease. She is sick for most of the year. She also told Zhou Qing to take it well and not to think that she is young and not to take it seriously. If it really becomes a weak disease over the years, it is a great event.
Zhou Qing responded, and saw that the queen seemed to have something to say, so she took her back.
Lianxia saw Zhou Qing walking far away, and said to the queen, "I see that the little prince is also a soft-hearted person. She has never met the prince of the country for a few times, but she was a little worried for a moment. She is a little sincere. She is not as cold and deserted as usual."
The queen smiled but Xingchun said, "The prince was careful and thoughtful. He must have thought of the same sympathy for the prince. No matter how sincere he was, it was their fate. Let's just serve the masters well, but they care about their children."
The queen laughed out loud and glanced at Xingchun: "I said that I would let you out of the palace and get married for more than ten years ago. No one would want to do so. Now I'm talking about these children. I'm really getting back and forth."
Xingchun curled his lips as if he was dissatisfied, "That servant thought that the little prince could not play with anyone in the palace, and no one could guess him in a circle. Now that he could care a little about Prince Gu, he was a childish son. With a few popularity, otherwise he would not be very good to be always stuffy. If he didn't look back, his highness, the emperor's grandmother, would have to worry about it."
Lianxia didn't stop there, as if she didn't like Zhou Qing very much. "I'm worried that the little prince will become older, so who doesn't care about it, but why did she focus on the British Duke's Mansion? I couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so I'd better not let it go. We don't know how he went to the Gu family that time."
"Okay. Don't mention the matter that day. We just don't know. He happened to be a coincidence or really planned. As long as Minhe is in the same mind as A Yu, he will not be able to make any flowers."
The queen stopped Lianxia and continued to talk, not because she really didn't care, but whether Zhou Qing went to the British Duke's Mansion to show her presence, or was getting close to Gu Xiying, or she wanted to take a roundabout way and get to know Gu Yubin. In the end, it was futile. She was very confident about the nature of Gu Yue's family.
This young prince, the young prince, was tricked by someone who was interested, or was unwilling to accept it. Whether it was an active or passive, it would be okay as long as it was a trapped beast.
Isn’t this the time I’ve been sick that day to the present day?
The queen looked at Xingchun. Xingchun told the palace where she had personally gone. Qing Xiuyi's surprise and Yu Zhaoyi's calmness, Xingchun told everything she heard and saw.
The queen decided to take over and felt that she didn't have to pay much attention to them in the near future. So she arranged the meal as usual.
Everything is as usual, but how can it be truly as usual?
Gu Xiying walked on the stone path outside Songtao's residence as usual. Songtao's residence is not as solemn as Yanqiyuan, nor is it as prosperous as Tinglanyuan. Instead, the green pines, green cypresses and lush flowers and trees are lush. It is better to say that it is a courtyard in the Duke's Mansion, but it is better to say that it is a separate residence.
In the past, Gu Yubin was either in the study or in the garden and waterfront, and he would not leave his home only when he was sick. During these ten years, he had been resting for a period of ten or half a month.
