Hand Medicine Fragrance

Chapter 155
"Maybe it's time to pay homage to the ancestral temple!" The prince complained, "Otherwise, I'm afraid that I will write a letter of guilt before I ascend the throne!"

Ma Wenzhao looked at the prince's face, but in just half a month, the prince seemed to have changed a lot all at once.

Even though there are many counselors and ministers around the prince to give advice, others can't share the depression in the prince's heart.

"How is the Princess of Chu settled now? She can't be allowed to live in the palace too! The post house is not safe yet, but where is there a safe place to house her?" The prince said with a frown.

"I do have a suggestion." Ma Wenzhao said, cupping his hands.

The prince squinted at him, "Say it quickly?"

"Princess Chu came to Great Zhou for the sake of marriage, for the close friendship between Great Zhou and Chu. The friendship between the two countries is beneficial to both Great Zhou and Chu, so at this time, the princess of Chu must not have any accidents. "Ma Wenzhao said with lowered eyes. When he said these words, his face was calm and unwavering, but no one noticed that his hands hanging in the sleeves were tightly squeezed, and the short nails even dug a hole in the palm of his hand. A semi-circular pinch mark, "Since it is for marriage, although it is not yet the wedding date, it can be treated specially in special times. Now that the princess of Chu State is arranged to live in Anguo Hou's mansion, isn't it a solution for both ends?"

The prince nodded when he heard the words, but he was still a little worried, "The wedding date has been postponed again and again, it is because of An Guohou..."

"Nowadays is an extraordinary time. If the Marquis of An Guo is considering the court, the Great Zhou, and sharing the worries of the Holy Majesty and His Royal Highness, there should be no reason to refuse. The Mansion of the Marquis of Anguo is definitely the best choice." Ma Wenzhao said, "Both It can protect the princess of Chu State well, and it can also protect the friendship between the two countries."

The crown prince frowned, and nodded again and again, "What Ma Wei said is true, it is said that An Guohou will enter the palace!"

The prince immediately called Zhao Yuanzhen and informed him of the decision.

Zhao Yuanzhen frowned and wanted to refuse.

But the prince said: "Sister is gone, I know you miss her in your heart, this matter is forced on you. But if sister is alive in the sky, I know that you are for the father, for me, for Da Zhou, I will definitely support you and even thank you.”

Zhao Yuanzhen was shocked, thank you?If she knew that he sent someone to assassinate her father, she might never forgive him for the rest of her life, thank you?

There was bitterness in his mouth, and he did not refuse again.

Princess Chu was welcomed into the Mansion of the Marquis of Anguo that day.

For the sake of safety, she was not arranged in the outer courtyard, but lived in the inner courtyard, a courtyard next to the main courtyard.

The princess of Chu State who lived in Anguohou's Mansion seemed to be very at ease, and never mentioned the matter of returning to Chu State.

Moreover, as a guest here, she has the attitude of a hostess, and she is not polite at all.

On the first day she moved in, she asked the maid Zhao Yuanzhen sent to serve her, and took her to visit the entire Anguohou Mansion.

"Princess, the capital is uneasy now. In your yard, Lord Hou sent extra people to protect you. You still..." Before the servant girl could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Princess Chu.

"I'll just stay in the yard and don't go anywhere? What's the difference between that and house arrest? You know, His Royal Highness asked me to live in the Mansion of the Marquis of An Guo to protect my safety, not to trap you. Mine." The princess of Chu State laughed and said, "Besides, the majestic Marquis of Anguo, how could the champion of martial arts in those days not even take care of his own house? I don't go out, so I get to know the environment in the Marquis' mansion, what's the danger? "

The servant girl's expression was a little unnatural, so she nodded.

The princess of Chu State smiled, and the maid beside her quickly supported her hand, and nodded in agreement: "Yes, this will be your home, princess, taking advantage of this opportunity, you should be familiar with it. You are familiar with the road. Your Highness the Crown Prince who wants to come to Dazhou is also out of this consideration, if you stop, be careful that your Highness the Crown Prince will blame you!"

Princess Chu covered her face and smiled shyly, "What did you say? Who meant that?"

"Isn't that obvious? Princess, you have come all the way from Chu, could it be that you are here to visit the garden?" The maid glanced at the servant girl, "Of course I came here for the purpose of getting married. We all know about it, so what's wrong with you?" of?"

The servant girl nodded quickly, not to stop her.

The princess of Chu State was smiling, and she was quite interested in strolling around the garden, as if she was frightened in a post house.

Look at her spirit, she is more energetic than the maids in the Hou's mansion.

The servant girl still felt sore in her legs and feet, but she was very interested and looked at each yard from yard to yard.

"Does Hou Ye not have a concubine's room? Are these gardens empty?" Princess Chu asked with a smile.

The maid bowed her head, "Yes."

"Have you never been there, or have you been dismissed?" Princess Chu asked again.

The servant girl looked up at her, then quickly lowered her head, "Returning to the princess, Lord Hou keeps a clean life and has never had a concubine room."

"Is it because the son-in-law of Great Zhou is not allowed to have a concubine?" Princess Chu asked.

The servant girl frowned, "There is no such rule."

The princess of the Chu Kingdom giggled while holding the exquisite copper stove, "I'm not mistaken."

While talking, she walked out of a yard shaded by a bamboo forest.

After a few snowfalls, the weather is getting warmer, but the snow has not yet melted away.

Among the white snow, a piece of green bamboo is particularly pleasing.

Princess Chu raised her foot and was about to enter the courtyard.

The maid hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, "Princess, stay!"

The princess of Chu State raised her eyebrows, "This piece of green bamboo is very pleasing to the eye. When I was in Chu State, I liked green bamboo. This piece of bamboo is somewhat similar to the bamboo forest in front of my window. It makes me feel kind." What about the feeling of being in my hometown, why can’t I take a closer look?”

The servant girl had a bit of trouble on her face, "Return to the princess, the Marquis of this yard has given an explanation, and no one can come close at will."

"Anyone? Even I can't do it?" Princess Chu said with downcast eyes.

"My princess will be Mrs. An Guohou in the future! She is the wife of Lord Hou as you said. My princess will be in charge of the entire inner courtyard of the Hou Mansion. I haven't heard of it. The mistress of the backyard is not allowed to enter!" The maid beside Princess Chu was very angry. sharp.

The servant girl's face turned ugly when she yelled at her, "Don't say that the princess is not the mistress now, but she has become the mistress. Don't you want to obey Lord Hou's orders? The so-called marriage and obedience means that our Princess Da Zhou has never When you rebelled against Lord Marquis!"

The servant girl spoke resolutely, but her voice was not very loud.

The maid from the state of Chu raised her voice first: "What shameful thing is hidden in this yard? It's just a piece of bamboo. If it's not a guilty conscience, why not let others see it?"

"Just now you said that Lord Hou didn't have a concubine's room. If his concubine lives here, there is nothing shameful." Princess Chu said, "I am not a small-minded person. A man has three wives and four concubines. It is also common in Chu State."

She spoke softly and softly, but she was a bit more polite than the maid beside her, which made people feel that she was reasonable.

A truly reasonable person shouldn't pester people after people say no to enter, but she sang with her maid and still wanted to go into the yard.

The servant girl frowned, "I beg the princess not to embarrass the servant girl, this is the account of Lord Hou."

"You don't have to be afraid. If he blames it, you can just say that I insist on going in and take a look, and you won't be blamed!" Princess Chu nodded to the maid beside her.

The maid let go of her hand and stepped forward to grab the maid.

The Princess of Chu walked towards the courtyard very quickly.

Seeing that the Moon Gate covered by green bamboos was just around the corner, but when she was about to step in, several guards jumped out of the bamboo forest.

The guard's face was dark, and he covered her hands to block her way, "No one is allowed to enter without the order of Lord Marquis."

"Look clearly, this is Princess Chu!" The maid stepped forward and said.

The guard didn't look at the two of them at all, and guarded the door firmly with a stern face, without any accommodating intention.

The maid has more to say.

Princess Chu shook her head, "Forget it, since Lord Hou ordered it, don't embarrass them."

After speaking, she really turned around and left.

The servant girl snorted coldly behind her back, isn't she already so obedient?Really don't hit the south wall and don't look back.

When Princess Chu returned to her courtyard, she sent the maids of the Hou Mansion away, leaving only her own people by her side.

"Has the princess found out what's going on?" the maid asked in a low voice.

Princess Chu shook her head, "It's just a matter of familiarizing yourself with the layout of the mansion. Can you see the depth? I have heard that he has a deep affection for the late princess. If he can't replace the position of the late princess in his heart, how can he?" Guaranteed that he really has one heart with Chu State?"

"We have to plan slowly, don't be in a hurry, and don't worry too much, princess." The maid comforted in a low voice.

"There is no concubine's room in his house, which is enough to prove the rumors are true. It's just that what is hidden in the courtyard that didn't let us go in and see?" Princess Chu narrowed her eyes, "The more you cover it up, the more curious you will be. Want to find out."

"What is the princess going to do?" asked the maid.

Princess Chu curled her lips, "Let's take a look."
