Chapter 209: A Wonderful Person
Xiao Lezi smiled when he saw this, and in order to drag someone into a trap, he immediately started talking nonstop.
Xu Shu wanted to interrupt him several times with righteous words, but the things about the governor were too "heart-stirring" and he was fascinated by them.
In the majestic hall, the evil and wicked man was still reviewing memorials at a rapid pace in order to rush home to be with his wife.
He didn't even notice that somewhere outside the hall, his three loyal subordinates were secretly gathered together, gossiping about him passionately.
The other protagonist in the gossip is currently walking on a busy street, munching on a candied haws with a smile on his face.
It was already late at this time, and I looked at the sun setting in the west.
Xiaotu pouted and said, "The sun is about to set. How about we talk while we walk?"
She is a family woman now, and she still understands that it is time to go home after dark!
Well, the main reason is that I have been playing for a whole day and I am afraid that if I go back late, some evildoer will get jealous.
Xie Yulong had no objection. The matter of his princess cousin was difficult for him to talk about. He was too embarrassed to speak in the crowded street.
The three of them walked back slowly while talking.
Just as Xie Yulong was about to open his mouth, Xiao Tu, who was biting a candied haws, suddenly raised his hand towards him.
Xie Yulong paused, then looked at Xiao Tu, who was chewing a bright red hawthorn and walking towards a woman on the road.
The woman looked quite young and was accompanied by her husband, standing at a roadside stall buying things.
Xiao Tu walked directly in front of the couple, then asked with a curled lip, "Are you buying a peace locket for your child?"
The couple was stunned when they heard this, and then the woman smiled kindly and said, "Yes, girl, do you want to buy something too?"
Xiao Tu didn't answer, but continued, "The child is four years old, right?"
The woman and her husband were stunned again and looked at each other.
The couple was very sure that they did not know this girl.
The husband looked a little wary, and the woman hesitated and said, "Miss, I don't know..."
Xiao Tu curled her lips and continued, "You were the son I gave birth to after a difficult labor that lasted a whole day and night. You almost lost your life. The child was only a tiny child when he was born, and it was so hard to raise him..."
The woman's expression changed. Her husband grabbed her and asked warily, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
Xiao Tu looked at him and asked, "Did your mother fall and hurt her waist yesterday?"
The couple was a little scared. The mother-in-law broke her waist, but she said it was not serious and she didn't call a doctor. Only they knew about this.
Xiao Tu looked at the two men and said, "Don't be nervous, I mean no harm. I just came here to remind you that the child is still young, the old man is injured, and the water storage pond at home was just filled with water this morning. The children are playful, so why don't you go home and check on them as soon as possible?"
When the couple heard her words, their faces turned pale. They put down their things and ran home with fear on their faces.
Xie Yulong looked at the running couple and couldn't help but ask, "Is the child okay?"
Xiao Tu curled her red lips and said, "It'll be fine if we go back now."
Xie Yulong felt relieved, "I'm glad everything is fine, thanks to the master!"
Xiao Tu curved her lips towards him, took a bite of the candied haws, and said, "Let's go, you can continue your story."
Xie Yulong looked at her with admiration, and suddenly felt full of confidence in his heart. The master was so powerful, maybe there would be a way!
So, she stopped being shy and said, "Speaking of my princess cousin, sometimes I really wonder if there's something wrong with her brain!"
Xiaotu looked at him with a smile in her beautiful eyes, "Oh, what do you mean?"
Xie Yulong sighed, "The story began three years ago. My cousin had just gotten married at that time. She married the second son of the current imperial tutor, who was said to be a talented scholar with a wealth of knowledge.
I met that man at his wedding. He was not bad looking, but he spoke in a very literary way, which did not suit my temperament.
The marriage between the two was arranged by my aunt, who also asked the emperor to grant the marriage.
Although my cousin is a princess, she has been very quiet since she was a child and always speaks softly. Of course, this was before she got married.
What I find hard to accept is that she seems to have become a completely different person since she got married.
That was half a year after she got married. I went to see her one day and found that she was actually helping her husband wash clothes.
I was completely stunned. My cousin, the Princess Duanyang, was actually doing laundry? Even if it was her husband's clothes, it absolutely didn't make sense!
At that time I asked her what was going on, but the prince consort was not nice to her, otherwise why would he let a princess change her clothes?
But guess what she told me?
She read the rules for women to me on the spot, saying that women should follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues and take care of their husbands. I was stunned when I heard it.
Then, in the second year after the marriage, my cousin went even further out of line. She actually took in eight concubines for her husband at once, saying that she was ashamed of not having a child. When I heard the news, I thought there was something wrong with my ears.
She is the legitimate daughter of the current emperor and empress. Her status is so noble that no one would dare to say a word if she couldn't give birth to a child for a whole lifetime, let alone a year. But she took the initiative to take a concubine for her husband in order to show her virtue!
Speaking of this, it’s hard to describe Xie Yulong in words.
"You know, because of this, my sister-in-law, my mother, my aunt, and the whole family took turns trying to persuade her, but they couldn't persuade her!"
Xiao Tu looked at Xie Yulong's expression and couldn't help laughing.
Xie Yulong said with a look of disgust, "Master, do you think this is outrageous?"
Xiao Tu smiled brightly and said, "It's indeed outrageous. What's next?"
Xie Yulong wiped his face and continued, "It goes without saying that after that, the eighth concubine was married home, and my sick-headed princess cousin began her daily life as a good wife.
She used her own money to help her husband support his concubines, took the concubines to burn incense and pray for children, and made clothes for the concubines' children. There were countless things like this.
What's even more outrageous is that she even prepared a set of rules for sleeping with the prince consort and the concubines: on the first and fifteenth day of each month, so-and-so would sleep with the emperor..."
Xie Yulong spoke with a look of doubt about life.
Li Mingshan, who had a cold face on the side, was also stunned.
Xiao Tu smiled and said, "Your cousin is fine. I thought of four words to give her."
Xie Yulong asked curiously, "What?"
Xiaotu laughed out loud, "What a strange thing in the world~"
Xie Yulong also laughed, "Master, you are right. These four words are indeed very appropriate."
"Yes, your cousin is so interesting. I'm very interested. Let's go~"
Xie Yulong was stunned. "Let's go, where are we going?"
"Of course I'm going to meet your princess cousin."
“Ah~”
"Ah what, didn't you say you wanted me to help her?"
