After Yu Xiaoxiao took a bath and changed her clothes, Nanny Wang took her princess into the side room next to the princess and her husband's bedroom. Nanny Wang had made up her mind today that she must find out exactly what her princess had done in the past few days. At least she had to know who was the princess's enemy and who was her friend now.
Yu Xiaoxiao entered the ear room and first weighed the meat bones, pine nut candy, and cloud cake that she had brought back.
Nanny Wang said sullenly, "The bones have been sent to the kitchen, and the pine nut candy is in the room. Princess, do you call that lump of dough cloud cake?"
Yu Xiao: "It rained, so the cloud cake became like that. Mammy, do you have any way to save it?"
Nanny Wang couldn't stand talking to her princess for just a few words and said, "Princess, don't talk to me about food first. Let's talk about..."
"Ah," Yu Xiaoxiao interrupted Nanny Wang and said, "I also bought a pig's head. Where's Xiaozhuang?"
After Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei were sent back by Gu Xinglang to change clothes, they were ordered by Nanny Wang to stand in the corridor and reflect on their mistakes. When they heard Yu Xiaoxiao calling, Xiaozhuang quickly responded, "Princess, what's the matter?"
Yu Xiaoxiao sat in the room and shouted, "Where's my pig's head?"
Nanny Wang's ears were a little hurt, and her heart was also a little hurt. Pig's head meat, it had only been a short time since her princess got married, and she was already eating pig's head meat. A girl who had been raised in luxury since childhood, now she was eating pig's head meat! "Come in and talk!" Nanny Wang shouted outside the door.
Xiao Zhuang was distressed when he heard Nanny Wang's roar from outside, and asked Xiao Wei, "Can I not go in?"
Xiao Wei rolled his eyes. Now that he had entered the yard, he had no reason to speak.
"Xiao Zhuang!" Nanny Wang yelled in the room.
“Hey, I’m here!” Xiaozhuang could only respond and run to the ear room.
Xiao Wei drew circles on the ground with his toes and stood in the corridor looking at the rain outside.
"Xiao Wei!" Nanny Wang yelled again.
Xiao Wei was also in pain now. Why did Nanny Wang scold him and Xiao Zhuang together every time she scolded someone?
Nanny Wang looked at the two brothers standing in front of her with a long face and asked, "Who will accompany the princess to buy pig's head meat?"
Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei shook their heads together.
Nanny Wang said, "You still don't admit it? Didn't you say that the princess would know about pig's head meat?"
"I know," Yu Xiaoxiao raised her hand to Nanny Wang and said, "Nanny, the pig head meat from Brother Niu's house is delicious. Xiaozhuang, where is my pig head meat?"
Xiao Zhuang said, "In my room, Princess, do you want to eat again?"
Yu Xiao: "Send it to Xiao Gu, let him and his friends have a taste."
Nanny Wang glared at Xiaozhuang and said that if Xiaozhuang dared to go, she would break his legs.
Xiao Wei said, "Princess, it's not time to eat yet. I'll send the pig's head to the kitchen and ask the chef to heat it up first so we can eat it at dinner time."
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded. This was a good idea. If Gu Xinglang and his friends ate now, she wouldn't be there, so it was obvious that she would have no part in the pork head. If they ate it at dinner, she could eat a few more pieces.
Nanny Wang looked at Xiao Wei and said, "No need for you to send me off, Xiao Sha!"
Xiao Sha, who was waiting outside the door, immediately responded, "Mammy."
Nanny Wang said, "Send the pig's head from the small farmhouse to the kitchen and tell the cooks, sir, the prince consort wants to eat it at dinner."
"Yes," Xiaosha took the order and ran away.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Nanny Wang's slightly green face and said, "Mammy, are you unhappy again today?"
The flesh on Nanny Wang's face trembled. She was unhappy every day now!
"Women who are always angry will age quickly," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Nanny Wang out of concern, "You can't do this. Think about happy things. Nanny, you are still quite young."
Xiao Wei sighed. Wouldn’t Nanny Wang be even more unhappy after hearing this?
Nanny Wang said, "Princess, you should first tell me who Big Brother Niu is." Her princess already has a consort with her, and there is another Big Brother Niu here. Does this mean that the consort is completely useless? After all, he is a general who leads troops to fight, and he looks good, so how can he be useless at all?
Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei just pretend that they don't exist. If the prince consort is not in a hurry, why should they be in a hurry?
Gu Xinglang, who was once again complained by Nanny Wang, sat at the wine table with his brothers. Young Master Gu had injuries and could not drink alcohol, but Li Yuanle and the others drank a few glasses of wine right away.
"Why are we coming back to Beijing together this time?" Gu Xinglang asked his brothers.
One of the brothers said, "We agreed on a date and came out from our respective armies together. We didn't expect that we came on a day that coincided with the reinstatement of our father, the eldest brother, and the second brother."
Li Yuanle asked, "How will Your Majesty deal with Zhao Beicheng?"
Gu Xinglang shook his head and said, "Zhao Beicheng is still imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, and the emperor has not yet given him an explanation."
"No explanation yet?" Another brother said dissatisfiedly, "It's been a whole day, isn't it enough for His Majesty to think about it?"
Gu Xinglang suddenly felt embarrassed. He thought, brothers, you don’t understand the pain that the emperor is feeling now.
Bai Zhao twirled the chopsticks in his hand and said, "With Zhao Qiu Ming here, Zhao Bei Cheng won't die anyway. Who can blame him for having a good father?"
Gu Xinglang poured Bai Zhao another glass of wine and said, "Let's not talk about the Zhao family father and son. How many days can you stay in the capital this time?"
Li Yuanle said, "We will reach the top in three or four days. If we stay any longer, I'm afraid His Majesty will be displeased with us."
"If you have nothing to do tomorrow, come with me to Ruyun Mountain," said Gu Xinglang.
The brothers were all stunned. They could go to Ruyun Mountain to hunt and have a happy day, but now Gu Xinglang's feet were injured and he couldn't walk. What were they going to do in Ruyun Mountain?
Gu Xinglang said: "The princess wants to go to Ruyun Mountain for autumn hunting."
One of the brothers said, "Princess, if you want to go, that's fine. You can sit under a tree with the princess to enjoy the breeze. We will go hunt some wild animals and roast them for dinner in the mountains."
Gu Xinglang took out the wooden sign that the second in command had given to Yu Xiaoxiao, put it on the table, and said to his brothers, "Have you seen this thing?"
Li Yuanle took the wooden plaque in his hand. When he saw the patterns and words burned on it, General Li's face became serious. He had been stationed in the East China Sea with his father and had seen such wooden plaques. Li Yuanle said, "This is the nameplate of the pirates who used to run rampant in the East China Sea. Xinglang, how did you get this thing?"
"Someone gave it to the princess," Gu Xinglang said, "Are you sure it belongs to those pirates in the East China Sea?"
Li Yuanle passed the wooden sign to the other brothers and said, "Is it a gift for the princess? When my father wiped out this group of pirates, many of them died, but several of their leaders survived and ran away with their minions. My father has been looking for them for several years but couldn't find them. Did they run to the capital?"
"Want to die?" Bai Zhao said in disbelief: "This group of thieves came to the capital? Is their leader crazy?"
