The foolish king's marriage to the ugly concubine

Chapter 47
"I've been studying all morning. I'm really hungry. If I want to learn, I'd better wait until the next meal." Mu Xinran looked up at her pitifully. The food was sent into the mouth, and it was a joy to eat.

Madam Xu was taken aback, studying all morning?What did the princess learn this morning?Is she the one who is tired?She said that she had demonstrated for another morning, and the princess was sitting on the side drinking tea, and occasionally glanced at it, so tired?
After many years in the palace, she immediately guessed that Mu Xinran was trying to make things difficult for her. Madam Xu frowned deeply, and a sharp look flashed in her eyes.

Looking at the two masters who looked like reincarnated starving ghosts, he scolded with a straight face: "Princess, I know that you may not like to learn these things, but this is the emperor's oral order, and you have to learn it no matter how much you don't like it. There was a joke at the empress dowager's birthday banquet, and the Xichu royal family lost face, even if you are a princess, you will inevitably be reprimanded."

"What does Madam Xu mean by that?" Mu Xinran raised her head from her rice bowl and looked at her inexplicably, "When did I say that I would stop learning these palace rituals? Is it okay to just eat when you are hungry? Bengong Seeing that Mother Xu has been teaching for a whole morning, I'm afraid she might be tired and dizzy, so I'd better go down and rest first, and wait for Mother Xu to wake up and talk about the rest."

Under Mu Xinran's gesture, Du Ruhai said to Mother Xu: "Please, Mother Xu."

She wanted to say something, but looking at Mu Xinran's cold eyes, Madam Xu held back the words in her throat.

After Madam Xu left, Chu Xuanyu secretly raised her head to look at Mu Xinran: "Lady, that old monster won't come again?"

After hearing Mu Xinran's words, Chu Xuanyu really didn't call anyone a tigress casually anymore, but the words that spit out from this mouth were still not so pleasing, but Mu Xinran was missing from the target, and now he was completely treating Mu Xinran as a tigress. Treat her like a second mother, listen to her in everything, and always try to please her, of course, except for the matter of being called a 'mother'.

Sometimes children become stubborn, and that is difficult to change. Chu Xuanyu's current situation is similar to this.

"Hehe..." Mu Xinran laughed softly, thinking back to Madam Xu's face, she really looked like an old monster that people made up. If she was heard by that well-behaved woman, she would probably get internal injuries. What can I do? Well, a thought that talks about etiquette and rules and goes deep into the bone marrow makes Madam Xu dare not commit a crime no matter how angry she is.

"She's Nanny Xu. The prince doesn't need to worry about her. You can do whatever you like. She doesn't dare to do anything to you."

"En." Chu Xuanyu nodded, and left Madam Xu behind in a blink of an eye.

"My lord, you take a nap in the afternoon, and then go to the pavilion to play with me, you know?" Mu Xinran's eyes flashed, and she had already thought about the countermeasure for the afternoon.

"Miss, do you want to play with me?" Chu Xuanyu's eyes lit up, looking at her excitedly.

Under the affirmation of Mu Xinran's nod, Chu Xuanyu's smile became brighter and brighter, her brows and eyes were slightly parted, her phoenix eyes were full of smiles, and her thick eyelashes fluttered gently, showing an indescribable charm and endless romance.

It was obviously just a simple smile, but under the interpretation of this monstrous face, there was such a soul-stirring beauty.

According to Mu Xinran's request, the court etiquette lesson in the afternoon was set in the back garden of Prince Rui's Mansion, where there was a gazebo surrounded by green trees and flowers, and the cool breeze from Jasper Lake, much cooler than other places .

"Princess, let's start with walking here. In the palace, you can't walk as casually as you do outside the palace. You have to keep your body upright, keep your belly in and lift your hips, and keep your eyes straight ahead. You must never walk with your head down. The distance between each step should not be too large, and the distance of each step should be the same, and it must not be too fast or too large. The princess watched the old slave do it this morning, can I walk around for the old slave to see now?"

"I don't have a good memory. I forgot what I did in the morning. I'll trouble Madam Xu to demonstrate it again." Mu Xinran sat on the stone bench, and Qing'er, who was standing behind her, gently shook the feather fan and fanned it for her. It was hot, and there was iced mung bean soup on the stone table next to it.

Knowing that Princess Rui intended to make things difficult, she could not refute it.Mother Xu is a dumb person who eats Coptis chinensis, and she can't tell the pain.I had to walk around patiently.

"Princess, do you understand?"

"Mother Xu, why do you still have so many rules when walking? Such a small step is like a snail. If something happens and delays the time to see the emperor, what should I do? What's more, I can't do this or that. , don't you feel uncomfortable?" Mu Xinran didn't answer the question instead, which made Mammy Xu dizzy all of a sudden.

After she regained her composure, Madam Xu replied firmly, "Princess, since it is court etiquette, there are rules. There is no rule without rules. No matter what you think in your heart, you must learn these etiquettes."

"Then Madam Xu, tell me why the rules are like this? Everything has its origin. Where did the etiquette you mentioned, such as the rules of walking, come from?"

Seeing Mu Xinran's thirsty look, Madam Xu's chest was boiling with blood. Didn't the source of this just be said a few hours ago?

"If the princess wants to know, the old slave will give the relevant books to the princess at night. Please learn how to walk hard first."

"You want me to read books at night? Don't you know that reading at night will hurt your eyes and mind? What's the meaning of Madam Xu's efforts? Today, if you don't make it clear, I won't study."

Such a rogue princess can be said to be unique in the world. Madam Xu has been in the palace for many years, and has encountered unruly, tyrannical, mischievous, vicious... all kinds of masters, and she has never met such a shameless one. Yes, I can't take it for a while.

She doesn't look big, and she doesn't look good. How could she have such a superior temperament? It's just that she can't show any resistance.

Nanny Xu could only grit her teeth secretly, telling the ins and outs of the court etiquette about walking.

Standing in the gazebo, her mouth was parched, but Mu Xinran was fine, holding the iced mung bean soup thirsty with relish, and sighing contentedly from time to time, with someone behind her fanning her, and someone in front telling her a story. good.

After finishing talking about walking at the fastest speed, Madam Xu didn't care about the dryness in her mouth, and hurriedly asked: "Princess, can you hear me clearly?"

"Understood, so there is such a legendary story about walking, I really learned." Mu Xinran gently put down the porcelain bowl, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Chu Xuanyu who was walking from behind the rockery, and a smile flashed in her eyes However, he pretended to be happy and stood up, "My lord, why did you come out alone? It's sunny outside, so I'm not afraid of getting sunburned."

Stepping down the steps of the gazebo quickly, she walked quickly to Chu Xuanyu's side, whispered something to him behind Mother Xu's back, then took his hand and walked back into the gazebo.

"The old slave sees the prince."

"My lord, it's a long way to get here from the house without shade. Drink some mung bean soup to quench your thirst." I prepared two porcelain bowls in advance, and I personally took the unused bowl and filled a bowl of cold mung beans. Pass the soup to Chu Xuanyu.
