Chapter 8 Tonic
After arranging the current matters, Chen Shurong went to the bronze mirror again, looking at her young and plump face, and looking at her body and hair covered with pearls and jade.
If none of them was given by him, he would be disappointed, right?
Humph, it was him who hid his thoughts and made her guess. This time it was her turn to hide.
…
Sui Han stared at the dragon-patterned jade pendant in the box. Is it something that only one can come across once in a million years?
As soon as he arrived at the Duke of Lu's Mansion, he was welcomed into Linfengju. After explaining his purpose, he saw that the son-in-law, who was about to go out, went back to wash his hands.
She is now holding the jade pendant reverently, as if it was given by God, and the stars in her eyes are dazzling.
"You said that this was personally selected by the princess and given to me?" How could Xie Yunzhao dare to believe it? Ever since the prince was chosen four years ago, he had become like her brother-in-law.
It has become difficult to even get close to each other, let alone giving each other gifts, which is unthinkable.
Now she can actually receive a return gift, and it is one she chose personally.
Sui Han lowered her eyes and pursed her lips. Her son-in-law was very surprised. She had never seen such a light in the prince's eyes.
"That's right, Second Young Master, please keep it. I have to go back to serve you. The princess had a cough when she woke up this morning. Maybe she caught a cold after falling into the water yesterday."
What? Xie Yunzhao was shocked. "If the imperial physician hadn't seen him in time, how could he have caught a cold?"
"I don't know. I've taken medicine."
She was very delicate and needed good medicine. "Go back and take care of the princess." Xie Yunzhao put away the box and ran to the main courtyard.
"Mother, open the warehouse. The princess has caught a cold. Your son is going to deliver some tonic medicine." The voice came before the person arrived.
The Duke's wife looked at Xie Yunzheng awkwardly. The latter looked hungover and his eyes were deep at the moment.
He couldn't let it go and came to beg her to change her mind, but the imperial edict had already been issued and the Duke said that this matter was in the best interests of the Duke's Mansion.
"You sit down first." She hurried out, fearing that her two sons would fight. "Why are you so flustered? Mrs. Lu, go with him to open the warehouse."
Xie Yunzhao, who had just run to the door, followed Mrs. Lu to the warehouse.
The Duke's wife frowned and walked in slowly, "Yun Zheng, think positively, mother will find a good family for you..."
"No need, mother. No one can compare to her." Xie Yunzheng clenched his hands in his sleeves, making a sound. He even lost the qualification to visit her.
"Don't say that. Mother knows she's good, but others are not bad either. Yun Zhao has also been wronged. He has been away from officialdom for these years. The whole family focuses on you. You are brothers, so you should hope for the best for each other, right?"
Xie Yunzheng sneered. He hoped that Xie Yunzhao would be well? Forget it.
He shouldn't be alive, so that no one can take everything he has!
Seeing him like this, the Duke's wife was anxious. She couldn't stand her two sons treating each other like enemies. "If you don't think about him, think about the princess. She is a girl, so young and beautiful. Is she really going to let others' gossip ruin her life?"
"Or do you think that she shouldn't live because she has lost her innocence? Do you hope that she won't marry Yun Zhao and just die?"
Xie Yunzheng stood up in shock, "I didn't, mother, can't you really see how much your son loves her?"
The Duke's wife thought that she should be ruthless. "Since you don't want her to die, then put your thoughts aside. Otherwise, the words "eldest uncle" and "sister-in-law", no matter what connection they make, will easily cost her life!"
Xie Yunzheng sat back down and closed his eyes. These two titles, in just one day, had already cut hundreds of wounds into his heart.
The Duke's wife held her son's head and pressed against his shoulder, "Son, if you want Princess Yongjia to live, you must hide your heart."
Xie Yunzheng's heart felt like it was grabbed by an invisible hand, and it hurt!
She was as beautiful as the warm spring sun. Every time she saw him, she would squint her eyes and smile. He also seemed to have cleared away the haze of the recent days and his heart was clear.
When she sees him being harassed by other women, she will definitely rush over with her skirt lifted up and drive the person away. She is arrogant and cute.
How could he give up on a woman like this?
Wiping away the two tears from the corners of her eyes, her voice became hoarse, but her eyes gradually became firm, "I understand, mother."
The Duke's wife breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Yun Zheng would definitely do what he said.
Xie Yunzheng let go of his mother, walked outside, and watched Xie Yunzhao coming in and out of the warehouse door.
Do you want to impress a princess with these? ridiculous!
Even if the princess compromised with the imperial edict, the person in her heart was still me. How could she give him a good face?
Despicable!
After the two brothers left, the Duke's wife came out. When she entered the storeroom, a scream came out from the bottom of her heart, this rebellious son, no, this prodigal son!
Mrs. Lu was scratching her head. The Second Master was taking things like crazy. He took away hundred-year-old ginseng, hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and so on. As long as it was nutritious, he took it all. He also took away two boxes of his wife's jewelry.
She couldn't stop it. The second master said that his mother wouldn't stop him from giving away his future daughter-in-law, so she couldn't open her mouth.
"Madam, please beat the old slave!"
The Duke's wife's eyes were filled with fire, "Lock it up, lock it up!"
Xie Yunzhao felt that he took it in a hurry and took too little, so he would definitely take more next time.
He hurried to the Princess's Mansion, but when he arrived at the door, he didn't dare to move, because in the past, Xie Yun always came to the door.
But today... Does she not want to see me?
Qingzhu Qingying was blocked by him, "Why don't you leave, Second Master?"
"What am I here for?"
"You? You're here to visit the princess. The princess fell into the water and caught a cold. As her fiancé, you are the emperor's gift, so you should send her some tonic."
"Yes, yes, I'm here to deliver some supplements." If she was angry, she would just leave immediately. Only when the supplements were delivered would she get better quickly.
In Qiutong Courtyard, Chen Shurong was lying on his side in a stiff position. This waist was the most beautiful. "Are you sure he will come?" The two mansions were separated by two streets.
The princess asked three times, and Sui Han was a little hesitant to make a promise, "Princess, I'll go take a look."
Just after taking two steps, Qiaoyu came in, "Princess, thank you for the second young master's request to see you."
Sui Han looked back with a smile and blinked.
Shen Shurong shook the wrist that was supporting his head, “I’m not feeling well, let him come in and sit down.”
Qiaoyu went out to pass on the message, "Thank you, Second Master. The princess is unwell. Please come in and have a seat."
Xie Yunzhao, standing at the gate of the courtyard, had sweaty palms. Could he enter her room?
Qingzhu pushed him and said, "Second Master, I am waiting for you here."
Xie Yunzhao walked in courageously...
"stop!"
Jin Zhi, who came back with the bowl of medicine, actually saw Xie Yunzhao outside the princess's house!
He was the one who ruined the princess's best marriage, and now you still dare to come?
Xie Yunzhao was stopped and looked over. It was her eldest maid. What did it mean? She let her in but the maid didn’t?
Chen Shurong also heard Jin Zhi's shout, frowned slightly, then relaxed, thinking it would be nice to have a touch.
"Greetings, Mr. Xie. Do you know that this is the princess's boudoir?"
Xie Yunzhao nodded, "Of course,"
"If you know that, why do you want to go in?"
"Of course the princess agrees, and we have an imperial decree to marry."
Jin Zhi lowered her eyes and bowed, "Forgive me for being so nosy, but you and the princess haven't gotten married yet, so you should consider her reputation more."
Xie Yunzhao narrowed his eyes. Fame?
The maid was blaming him for what happened yesterday.
When Chen Shurong heard Jin Zhi fall silent after he finished speaking, he looked up and saw that he had left just like that?
Can't see, sit up.
