The story of Princess Xiatang's counterattack

Chapter 317
Chapter 317
After the words were finished, the housekeeper gave him a light glance, and the little eunuch trembled at the sight of him. Then, thinking of who he represented, he puffed out his chest again and pretended to be calm.

At this moment, the boy sent by the housekeeper to inspect the woodshed, the stables and other corners ran over and whispered a few words in his ear, and the housekeeper frowned even tighter.

Four horses were missing in the mansion, and four people were lost in Yurongyuan, so...

"Did you take our family seriously?!" The little eunuch was so angry that he dared to whisper in front of him, really he didn't take him seriously?
"Wait for us to go home..."

"Don't blame the father-in-law, our concubine has gone out." The butler interrupted the little eunuch.

The concubine disappeared, the butler thought for a while and thought of several possibilities, among which the most probable one was to go after the prince.

It's not a good thing for the queen to come early or late, and wait for the prince to go out before sending someone to look for the concubine.

He doesn't know if the princess has left the capital now, if the whereabouts of the princess are revealed now, the queen will send someone to intercept her, and it will be bad if the princess is broken.

The housekeeper can still tell which is more important.

Therefore, he only vaguely said that the princess was out of the house, and said nothing else.

"Going out?" The little eunuch raised his voice an octave, "Where did you go?"

"The princess doesn't need to report to the old slave when she goes out. Why don't you go in and wait until the princess returns?" The butler made a gesture of invitation, and his tone was much more amiable than before.

At the same time, he winked at the head of the guard in the mansion, no matter what he had to keep the eunuch for more time.

The little eunuch didn't say a word, he looked up at the sun, it was almost noon now, if Princess Zhan went out in the morning, wouldn't she come back for lunch?

Anyway, a lot of time has been wasted, and the empress also said that he must be asked to bring Princess Zhan back to the palace. If he wants to go back by himself, he won't be scolded, so it's better to wait.

What's more, just now the housekeeper of Zhanwang Mansion made things difficult for him, and he has to make up for it.

Like a cockfighting cock, the little eunuch entered the main hall with his head held high, and the housekeeper ordered him to serve him good tea.

That being said, all the people in a mansion are servants, how can they serve others?

Standing to the side stiffly, that is to say, there is no water to add water.

After a while, the little eunuch drank enough water. At first, he was worried that the queen would be waiting in the palace, but after sitting for more than half an hour, he was not in a hurry at all.

If the queen was really anxious, she would have sent someone to look for him long ago, why would she wait until now?
The queen in the palace is really not in a hurry, because both the emperor and Xiahou are gone.

Xia Houxian went to the queen for the matter of Rongli, he obediently waited for two days, and then he couldn't wait to enter the palace.

Xia Houxiang has gone far away now, right?
Will his Li'er be able to enter the palace?

The queen, who was sitting in the palace waiting for Rongli, did not expect Xia Houlian to come, so she cast a wink at Qiu Yan.

Or the people who have been in the palace all year round are different, Qiuyan immediately understood what the queen meant, and used an excuse to leave the palace gate and command a shrewd maid.

"You go to Yilan Pavilion and wait. If Xiao Songzi brings Princess Zhan back, you can bring someone in through the back door into the side hall." Qiu Yan thought carefully and arranged the matter properly.

"Yes." The maid led the order to go out to guard the people.

Qiu Yan turned around and entered the hall to stand next to the queen. Seeing the queen looking over, she nodded slightly. The queen was relieved and talked to Xia Houlian with a smile, as if nothing had happened.

Xiahou was not in the mood to chat with the queen, all he was thinking about was Rongli, seeing that the queen didn't answer his words for a long time, he simply stopped going around in circles, he said seriously, "Mother, two days have passed, can you take Li'er in?" palace?"

The old God Empress took a sip of tea, put down the cup of tea and smiled kindly, "Empress Mother knows that you are impatient, and was about to tell you that there are many beauties in the harem these days. There is no child in the world who doesn't know the hardships involved, these beauties have a lot of demands every day, and the mother-in-law is very annoying and can't refuse, so these two days are a bit busy, how about you wait for the mother-in-law to finish these few days?"

"This..." Xia Houxian frowned, did he have to wait?
"Hey, my mother is getting old, and every day when I open my eyes, there are a lot of things waiting for my mother to deal with, and now I can't keep up with energy, and I often have headaches." Saying this, the queen rubbed her head and put on a look of "I'm so sorry." Tired' look.

Xia Hou swallowed the words that came to his lips, and he could only pretend to be concerned, "The queen mother has worked hard, has there been an imperial physician to treat her?"

"It's not a serious problem," the queen shook her head weakly, "It's just a matter of resting, you don't have to worry about it."

The mother and son were talking when the emperor came.

The queen was wondering, and when she got up to greet her, she counted with her fingers, and it turned out that it was the fifteenth day, no wonder the emperor would come.

It's better to come than not to come, isn't it?
Xia Houxian also stood up and greeted the queen with salutes.

Xia Houzan didn't expect his son to be there, just in time for lunch, so he felt sorry if he didn't have a meal together.

So, it was rare that the family of three got together for lunch.

Although the queen was happy, she was concerned about Rongli's matter, so she was inevitably distracted.

Now she is not at all anxious to let Rongli enter the palace, she wished she didn't come today.

Xiahou's mind became more serious, his mother cried out that he was tired, and his father came again, so he couldn't bring up the matter of Li'er, which made him absent-minded after a meal.

Xia Houzan could see that Xia Houxian was not in good condition, so he was unavoidably unhappy. No matter which son he had dinner with, he would always be happy since he was a child, and tried his best to please him.

But today, these three sons only care about their own food, occasionally raising their heads and still picking up vegetables with a blank face.

Xia Houzan couldn't help but wonder if this son's head was kicked by a donkey again?I haven't seen him live normally since Kai Chun'er!
The queen was busy serving food and talking to Xia Houzan, but she didn't show what was on her mind. While chatting, Xia Houzan suddenly lost his voice, and when she looked up, she saw Xia Houzan looked at Xia Houzan with a bad expression, and frowned. Wrinkled.

The queen who knew Xia Houzan very well, immediately understood why Xia Houzan was upset, and quickly kicked Xia Houzan's foot under the table. Is this kid going crazy?His father is watching him!

Xia Houlian suddenly came back to his senses after being kicked, and was about to ask the queen why he kicked him, when the queen looked at Xia Houzan with crampy eyes and gave him a wink, no matter how stupid he was, he knew what was going on.

"Father, you work hard every day, eating more is good for your health." Xia Houxian said as he picked up a chopstick dish for Xia Houzan, and he tried to make himself more natural.

"En." Xia Houzan said noncommittally, and continued to eat without saying anything.

"Look, I still know that I feel sorry for you, and I just told my concubine that you have been dealing with the government affairs for many days, and I am going to prepare some supplements for you." The queen adjusted the atmosphere on the side, trying to speak well for Xia Houlian.

Xia Houzan's complexion got better now, and he nodded, "I have a heart."

The queen breathed a sigh of relief.
