Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 233 Like Paint Like Glue
Yuan Ce's voice suddenly came from outside: "Your Highness, Mr. Pei from Pingyuanhou's residence is here."

"Understood." Li Xuanye straightened his face, quickly put Zhao Xiwei down in his arms, and said in a deep voice, "Let him wait in the study."

"Yes."

The sound of footsteps went away, and Zhao Xiwei breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, he didn't come in.

It seems that Li Xuanye didn't lie to her, and these servants wouldn't just barge in.

but……

Even if no one will break in, he can't let him mess around like this!

Facing the bronze mirror slightly, Zhao Xi brushed back the loose hair on his temples, straightened the rose hairpin, then touched his hot cheeks, secretly swearing in his heart.

Li Xuanye straightened his sleeves, saw the hairpin at a glance, and raised his eyebrows.

Zhao Xi was stunned for a moment, and explained: "The jade hairpin that His Highness gave you is too precious, I was afraid that I might make a mistake wearing it on my head, so I put it away."

Li Xuanye smiled slightly: "I'll go see Pei Gongquan first."

"Okay." Zhao Xiwei hurriedly stood up to help him change.

Li Xuanye looked down at her quietly.

Her stature is relatively tall among women, but she has a slender and thin skeleton. Her neck, wrists, and waist are all slender and tender, looking like willow branches that have just sprouted, light and soft. Flexible, giving people an indescribable pleasing feeling.

She looks exquisite and translucent, but she does things very swiftly, Bai Shengsheng's fingertips fluttered lightly around his robe, and he has been taken care of from head to toe in just a few or two strokes.

"Okay." Zhao Xiwei stood on tiptoe, tied a bow on the cloak strap for him, and looked up at him, "Your Highness, hurry up, don't keep Mr. Pei waiting."

The voice is soft and gentle, and it sounds like a spring warbler in the morning wind.

"Yeah." Li Xuanye smiled slightly, put his arms on her waist and gently hugged her, and said in a low voice, "Let's have dinner together when I come back."

Looking at it, there is a feeling of reluctance like paint and glue.

Zhao Xiwei was a little surprised, but still responded with a smile.

From the day she received the news of the marriage, she had planned to walk on eggshells in the East Palace.

Of course she is confident in herself, although she did not put getting his favor as her first goal, but "how to live in harmony with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince" is a difficult problem she is going to spend three months or even half a year to overcome.

Unexpectedly, the development of things far exceeded her expectations.

Either way, the easier it is to get along with Li Xuanye, the more she can devote her energy to doing her own things.

However, comfort is comfort, she did not dare to take it lightly.

After all, it's only been a few days since the wedding.As the days go by and the freshness wears off, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to talk about, right?

Shaking his head, Zhao Xiwei called the maids to come in: "The East Palace is a completely unfamiliar place to us. Thanks to the help of Aunt Mingyu and Nanny Sun these few days, we will not be rude. They will go back soon. Now, I have to express my intentions a little bit, you guys take this account book to the warehouse, and carefully move all the marked things over."

Mingyu is Concubine Shu's personal maid, and Nanny Sun is the eldest princess' confidant, so it is impossible for people to just go back empty-handed like this.

"Yes." Pearl and Yulan are cowardly and dull, and Zhao Xiwei was worried that they would offend Li Xuanye, so he didn't let them in to serve, and kept letting them do some chores in the outer courtyard, such as fetching water, delivering food and moving things. Son.

Yinbao and Jinxiu walked in together, holding two large bunches of golden wintersweet: "Miss, I just passed by the back garden and saw the beautiful wintersweet blooms, so we folded two bunches, and it's very lively when you put them in the room some."

"That's right, it's really beautiful." Zhao Xiwei held the flower and smelled it, the quiet and cold fragrance penetrated into her nostrils, and a soft smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

At this time, the snow was falling, and the translucent light refracted in through the window screens, and the golden wintersweet had a dazzling halo, covering her face, making her smile even brighter and clearer.

Jinxiu stared blankly.

Since the young lady got married, she seemed to be getting better and better.

Fair skin, rosy complexion, like a clump of soft and bright wild roses, blooming freely in the warm spring sun.

It wasn't until someone tapped her forehead that she came back to her senses, remembered an important matter, leaned over and whispered in Zhao Xiwei's ear: "Miss, let the second lady know about the second master. "

The second master, that is, her second uncle who has not met, let the second wife know about it, nothing more than marrying a concubine in secret.

"Yuan's eyes are really sharp." Zhao Xiwei held a small golden scissors and trimmed the flowers and branches. He didn't raise his head when he heard the words, and just asked casually: "How are they going to deal with it?"

Jinxiu looked quite helpless: "Second Madam is so strong and shrewd, how can she tolerate such a thing, and now she is making peace with Second Master."

Zhao Xi smiled, continued to straighten the flower branches in his hand, and asked casually, "Then what is the old lady's attitude?"

"Of course, the old lady refused to let the second lady reconcile. She said that she scolded the second master severely and asked him to sever ties with that woman immediately. She also advised the second lady to put the overall situation first and turn the big things into small ones. If you really make a big mess and go out like this, not only will you lose the face of the entire Zhao family, but it will also be of no benefit to the Second Madam herself."

Without even thinking about it, Zhao Xiwei smiled and said, "Then the second master and the second wife must not agree."

Jinxiu was extremely surprised: "How do you know?"

Zhao Xi smiled calmly: "The second master and the second wife live apart all the year round, and they don't see each other a few times throughout the year. Not to mention there is no relationship between husband and wife, even ordinary feelings may not have much. The second master is now It was the time when he and the woman outside were in love. The more the old lady wanted to break up, the more the second master would rebel. After all, the second master was wandering outside all the year round, and the family rules could not restrain him. As for the second wife, she was the most lost in the Zhao family. When she married in, she was the one who helped the Zhao family in the snow. Now that the second master has a future, he is raising a woman outside. If she is a submissive, that's fine, but she is a person who has plans for the sky, how can she swallow her anger?"

Jinxiu nodded again and again: "Miss, you are right, it really is like this, the old lady asked the second master to sever ties with the outsider, but the second master just disagreed, and would rather not go home and be with that woman. The second lady even less I mentioned it, not only to reconcile, but also to cede all the property and take it away, saying that this is all managed by her hard work, and has nothing to do with the second master."

As Jinxiu spoke, she revealed an incredulous expression.

In this world, most fickle men divorce their wives. How can any woman really propose to divorce?
But the second lady not only mentioned it, but also took away all the family property, which is too earth-shattering, let alone put it in the capital, even if it is put in the whole Great Wei, there will be no second one.
