Chapter 73 Leaving the Palace
The Dragon Boat Festival was simple, and no one came to Zheng Wang Mansion. Everyone just asked a little, and after getting the answer, they praised the queen for sympathizing with the children. Everything passed in peace as usual.
Princess Yunqing was a little anxious.
She wanted to leave the palace.
But the palace was strictly prohibited and she had no choice. In the afternoon, she asked Yu Zhaoyi whether it would be allowed to leave the palace to go to her uncle Peiguo’s mansion to send some fraternity gifts.
Yu Zhaoyi did not doubt that he was there, but told Princess Yunqing that the city was very lively on Duanyang this day. The Duke of Pei was used to going outside the city to worship gods and ancestors, and usually stayed in the village for one night.
Princess Yunqing was a little depressed.
Yu Zhaoyi thought that her daughter was a little depressed in the palace, and thought about the fun of the city to evacuate. She agreed to Yun Qing and let her leave the palace for a while the next day. However, she had to report to the queen before she could go.
Princess Yunqing thought about the situation in Fengyi Palace yesterday, struggled hard for half a day, and when she was dinner, she went to Fengyi Palace again. She said that she wanted to go to the Duke of Pei's Mansion to give the festive ceremony, but her mother had already agreed.
Yun Qing did not hide the excitement and expectation in her eyes, but emphasized the excitement in the city, which made the queen think she wanted to take the excuse to leave the palace and have some fun.
The queen seemed to have not realized it and did not hesitate much, so she agreed. She even asked Yun Qing what she was going to send over. She opened the kuo again with Lianxia and added a Wu Ruitu to the Duke of Pei's Mansion.
Princess Yunqing left happily. Xingchun and Lianxia looked at each other and smiled. They felt that Princess Yunqing, who had always been steady, became more and more moved.
Xingchun was a little worried and couldn't help asking the queen why she agreed to Yun Qing leave the palace. At this time, she must have left the palace to find Gu Yubin, is it something inappropriate?
"Anyone's obstruction will only ignite her heart. Only those who own it can extinguish her. British governments are smart people, so I feel relieved. It would be a good thing to let Yun Qing, the child, take a break earlier. If she can calm down, I will be worried." The queen looked at the direction where Princess Yun Qing left at the entrance of the palace and said lightly, as if it was a very small thing, so small that it was not enough to stay in the palace.
The queen knew the final result of this thought from the beginning, and she also cherished Yun Qing. As a person who has experienced it, she naturally knew that such hopeless emotions would be let go of the earlier, the better. Time can soothe everything, and when Yun Qing really grows up, she will be able to let go. If it is always held in her heart, it is the long-lasting and unforgettable affection.
The princess of the imperial family cannot keep such deep affection.
Princess Yunqing returned to the bedroom and tossed and couldn't sleep. She thought about how to dress up and change tomorrow and spoke. All night, her heart was so deafening that she was deafening.
I couldn't sleep, so I got up and counted the things I was going to take out of the palace. Halfway through, I thought that these things were sent to my uncle's house, and I felt bored. I went back to the bed again.
After two or three times, I finally fell asleep. In my sleep, a light smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.
The next day, when Princess Yunqing's carriage left the palace, the prison guard's leak had not yet come out, but the sky was getting better and the sun was not drying. When the guard who was driving entered Shengye Lane, she was stopped by Princess Yunqing. After a while, she asked to continue moving forward.
The maid Guan Tinglan next to her looked at her with some concern, "Your Highness the Princess."
Yun Qing smiled, "It's not a big deal. I always feel that it's important to go to my uncle's house." Yun Qing naturally couldn't tell Ting Lan that she felt a little timid in her hometown.
What she thought in her heart was that even the closest people around her had never revealed it.
But if she doesn't say it, it doesn't mean that no one knows it. Tinglan's personality is most like Yun Qing, cautious and delicate. Yun Qing's feelings for the British Prince are not overnight, it is a love for years. Even if she doesn't say it, she will have subtle differences with others.
Even if I only see you at the palace banquet once or twice a year. Even if I haven't said much, Your Highness will be nervous, shy, and deliberately don't care. Now, I understand in my heart that Your Highness wants to meet Prince Gu, otherwise why would you be worried about gains and losses from a distance?
Your Highness must have thought he had concealed it well. Tinglan sighed in her heart, feeling a little sorry for her princess.
When they arrived at the Duke of Pei's Mansion, everyone saw the ceremony one by one. Because they had handed over the words before, they said they would not leave food, which saved them a lot of trouble. Princess Yunqing gave the things, took the things added by the queen, and after a lot of contract, she wanted to say goodbye.
It took less than an hour.
Mrs. Sun kept her and said that it was almost noon, so she had to eat a bite of food before leaving. When the sun was high, it became hotter. Yun Qing refused, saying that it was rare and she was not in a hurry to return to the palace. The excitement of Duanyang had not yet dissipated, so she just came out to see the excitement of Jingyang.
This was said in a tactful way, but Mrs. Sun could not keep her again. Yun Qing got into the car and drove out of the alley. The guards who drove softly asked the princess where she wanted to go.
Princess Yunqing didn't say anything.
She just said she wanted to go out for a trip. After all, if she mentioned it later, the time she left her uncle's house and the time she returned to the palace would not match, and then it would be hard to believe that she would talk about it.
Silence for a moment. There was no sound of the wind.
Princess Yunqing said softly, "Go to the Duke of England." The voice was very soft, as if she was trying harder for herself. "Go." Princess Yunqing sat upright and closed her eyes.
"Go to the British Duke's Mansion, the Duke's Lord will go to find Min and Princess." Ting Lan ordered.
Yun Qing chuckled. Yes, I went to Xunmin and that girl. Thinking of this, Yun Qing sat upright and straightened her waist. She felt that she was justified.
The Duke of England's Mansion and Duke of Pei's Mansion were only three streets and alleys away, and it arrived in a short while. As soon as Princess Yunqing got off the car, she was greeted by the concierge of the Duke of England's Mansion.
As soon as the princess entered the door, she was still walking in by the housekeeper. The owners of the Duke of England's mansion had already known the news that the princess had passed by.
Gu Xiying had just finished lunch at this time and was sitting on a swing in his yard to recite a book of peace. The swing was between the veranda and the courtyard wall, with flower racks separated by a single open ground. The sun could not be sunny and the wind could not be blown. Gu Xiying sometimes liked to sit here for a break, and was also surprised when she heard Wanqing reply that Princess Yunqing was visiting.
What does it mean to go directly to the door without posting or passing messages?
Mrs. Xiao also reacted this when she heard the report. She immediately asked Madam Qin to greet her, thinking that it was probably coming to find her daughter.
Gu Yubin also received the news, but he also thought that it was the princess who came to find her sister. He thought that the palace rules were strict. Princess Yunqing was young and could not help but think that she would relax quickly.
If you want to say that mother and son are in love, that's it.
Gu Xiying didn't know why Princess Yunqing came to the house. I thought she would not know beforehand, so she should have come out of the palace today. Since she was leaving the palace, she could only go to the Duke of Pei and come over there. She must have mentioned herself in words. What she said about the day before yesterday's flower banquet.
Gu Xiying thought casually, and she didn't provoke her in her words, and there was nothing worthy of her visit, and she wouldn't say that. What was that? There was nothing to go to the feast by herself.
Go to a flower banquet.
Gu Xiying held the swing with both hands and stopped herself. She understood. She was not here to find her. I guess she was here to ask about her words.
Brother, brother, there are so many little ladies who are happy with you.
Gu Xiying knew the purpose of Princess Yunqing, so she felt relieved. She had no place to move, and she relied on the swing to recite the Sutra of Peace.
