Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 252

"Princess, you did the right thing." Nanny Sun nodded with a smile.

Such a way of dealing with no tricks and tricks, even she, an old man in the palace, would secretly praise her for her cleverness.

Yin Bao was holding a small bronze mirror by the side, a little unconvinced: "Miss is too good-tempered, then Miss Pei clearly came to provoke you, and you even gave her a gift."

Zhao Xi nodded her forehead with a smile: "Don't say such things outside, people will slap their lips if they hear it."

"Isn't this servant arguing for you! You are an upright princess, how can you allow her to ride on the head of a girl!"

Even as smart as Jinxiu, she showed worried eyes: "Yeah, if you treat her so well, I'm afraid not only you won't be able to dispel Miss Pei's thoughts, but you will..."

Zhao Xiwei shook his head: "You are wrong."

"Ah?" Yin Bao's eyes widened, his face full of confusion.

She was puzzled that Pei Zhenzhen, a young girl, dared to rob men so blatantly, while her own lady, as a princess, chose to be tolerant.

Doesn't this tell all the women in the world that the princess welcomes them to compete for favor?
Zhao Xi smiled faintly: "The matter of the East Palace is decided by His Highness the Crown Prince. If he wants to accept any woman, let alone me, the Crown Princess, even the Emperor and Empress Dowager may not be able to interfere. Similarly, if he doesn't want to accept him, let alone one Pei Zhenzhen, even if there are ten or hundreds of them, they won't be able to influence him."

The jealousy between two women seems to be a war between women, but the real problem lies with men.

If Li Xuanye insisted on taking a concubine, it would be a waste of effort for her to fight.

If you put all your energy into competing with other women for favor, then what's the point of such a life?
As for standing still, you can not only test out Li Xuanye's attitude, but also see clearly that Pei Zhen is really a human being. Where can I find such a good opportunity to have the best of both worlds?

Jinxiu understood in an instant, and showed admiration in her eyes: "Miss, you did the right thing!"

After finishing her makeup, the maids in charge of the meal filed in with the breakfast.

A plate of stir-fried choy sum with green oil, a plate of fried crispy fish with charred outside and tender inside, a plate of thinly sliced ​​green bamboo shoots, and a plate of steamed pork ribs full of aroma.

Finally, there is a cup of stewed eggs as tender as tofu, and a cup of smooth and delicious bird's nest stewed lotus seeds.

All light but refined dishes.

Even an ordinary bowl of white rice porridge has a sweet fragrance.

Zhao Xiwei was a little surprised.

Maid Achun put a crystal cake in front of Zhao Xiwei's azure-glazed butterfly: "Princess, eat it while it's hot. His Royal Highness ordered the kitchen to eat it because you have a bad stomach." Something light and nutritious."

Zhao Xiwei let out an "oh" before remembering that she vomited last night.

It felt warm in his heart, he didn't expect that he would take her little discomfort so seriously.

I feel a little embarrassed again.

It's just that my stomach is a little uncomfortable, so I went to great lengths to let the kitchen specialize in this table for breakfast.

Where is she so delicate...

After eating half a bowl of porridge, I feel a lot warmer in my stomach.

After breakfast, Jinxiu brought out some tea for mouthwash, Zhao Xiwei took it and took a sip, then looked at the sky outside.

There is a thin golden light emerging from the east, and a faint cloud floats gently.

From the Zhao Mansion to the East Palace, it is only a few streets away.

Get up in the morning and go out, it's almost time now.

Just as he was thinking, he heard a report from a court lady outside the door: "Crown Princess, someone from the Zhao residence is here to see you!"

"Ask them to wait in the flower hall."

Zhao Xiwei ordered Jinxiu to receive her, while she went to the inner room to change clothes.

His eyes stayed in front of the closet for a while, and finally he picked out a red dress, with intricate and gorgeous peonies embroidered with gold thread on the collar and cuffs, three red gold flower hairpins inlaid with rubies on his head, and a pair of earrings on his ears. Pair of jasper earrings.

A crimson silk sash was tied around her waist, and multicolored bird patterns were embroidered on the dark blue shawl. The dress was very dignified and gorgeous, with a bit of publicity that was not there before.

Zhao Chengyan knelt on the ground, just seeing the golden red skirt, her heart fell straight to the bottom of the cliff.

The person in front of her was no longer that wild girl brought back from the countryside.

She is a lofty princess.

It was the princess they knelt down to worship.

"Greetings to the Crown Princess." Seeing that the two girls hadn't moved, the third wife, Mrs. Sun, hurriedly pulled one with one hand, and bowed gently on the ground.

"Ms. Sun is free." Zhao Xi smiled slightly, motioning to the left and right to help Mrs. Sun up, and glanced behind her, with a cold expression on his face.

Since he was here to ask her to help solve the family's difficulties, he couldn't ask anyone to come, but he asked the third lady to come over. That's not counting, and he brought two young ladies from the Zhao family.

Looking at it again, Zhao Chengyan is wearing a pale pink skirt, which just rightly reveals her slender, white and tender neck and collarbone. Her figure is light and somewhat timid, like a crabapple.

After all, she is the daughter of a prostitute raised by a big family. That kind of calmness and dignity are engraved in her bones.

Next to him was Zhao Chengyu, who was dressed in a peach red skirt. He was dressed exactly like Zhao Chengyan, but it was even more delicate and charming, like a branch of peaches and plums under the scorching sun, brilliant and eye-catching.

Compared with Zhao Chengyan's cuteness and pitifulness, Zhao Chengyu looked a lot tougher, with a faint anger in his brows and eyes, as if this trip to the East Palace came because someone put a knife on his neck.

Seeing Zhao Xiwei's eyes lingering behind her, Mrs. Sun smiled and said: "The old lady is sick, and the sister-in-law has to take care of the prime minister. I am the only one in the house who can spare me. I am a rough person." , I had no choice but to bring their two sisters to be my companion."

Zhao Chengyan made a standard salute: "My sister is dull, please don't let the princess see you."

Zhao Chengyu was holding the teacup, absently looking at the golden silk peony pattern on the tea tray, his small face was tense, and he had no intention of saying hello or exchanging greetings.

Zhao Chengyan coughed lightly, and reminded: "Sister Yu, quickly salute the Crown Princess."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Chengyu choked coldly: "The Lord has not come yet, why are you in such a hurry to act?"

Zhao Chengyan's pretty face immediately flushed red, but she didn't want to get angry, she just smiled to Zhao Xi slightly with a standard smile, "Please forgive me, Princess Yu, sister Yu is in a bad mood recently, Please don't be as knowledgeable as the princess."

Mrs. Sun was a little embarrassed, and also smiled to smooth things over: "Yes, Sister Yu is in a bad mood."

Except for this sentence, she took a cup of tea and sipped it silently, as if she didn't want to say more.

What else does Zhao Xiwei not understand?
Why did you have to send the third lady here? It's not because she is closer to the third lady.

As for the two sisters.

There was a cold smile in my heart.

At this critical juncture, let the two girls go to the East Palace dressed up like this, maybe the ulterior motives are not in the bar?
