Chapter 248 If she wants to get married, I have to marry her?
Chunzhi and Yuzhu talked in private for a long time, and casually mentioned some of Gu Yuanjia's recent situation in Xizhou.
Yuzhu had received Chunzhi's handwritten letter before and knew that Gu Yuanjia was doing well in Xizhou. However, the few words on the letter could not compare to what Chunzhi said to her in person.
In fact, Yuzhu also knew that she shouldn't care about what Gu Yuanjia was doing recently. In the past, they were just master and servant. After she left the house, she should go her separate ways with Gu Yuanjia. She had always done so before.
However, when the news of Prince Chang'an's death came from Xizhou, Yuzhu was really upset and lost her mind. When she asked Sister Chunzhi about Gu Yuanjia's news, she had already betrayed the thoughts hidden deep in her heart.
Now Chunzhi has seen through her, so she would intentionally or unintentionally mention how Gu Yuanjia is doing in Xizhou.
Yuzhu couldn't and didn't want to say that she didn't want to hear about Gu Yuanjia.
Chunzhi also knew that Yuzhu was not completely indifferent to Gu Yuanjia.
When Yuzhu first entered the Gu Mansion, she was still a little girl. In her youth and ignorance, she met a brilliant and talented young man from a famous family like Gu Yuanjia. He accompanied her day and night and treated her so well. How could she not be moved at all?
But Yuzhu was not the kind of person who would take the opportunity to curry favor with others. She knew her own identity well and knew that it was impossible for her to have a good ending with Gu Yuanjia. She had also seen those young and beautiful concubines and maids who were pampered at the beginning, but were replaced by new ones again and again, and finally were trapped in the backyard, went crazy or died, and had no good end.
Rather than entrusting her life to someone else, Yuzhu wanted to live a good life on her own, so she left the Gu Mansion and escaped Gu Yuanjia's pursuit again and again. She even had a fake marriage with her cousin and gave birth to Nian'er in the capital.
Chunzhi knew Yuzhu's difficulties and her worries, so she didn't force Yuzhu to do anything with Gu Yuanjia. She just told Yuzhu to live the life she wanted, and she would take care of everything else.
Yuzhu also feels that her future is full of hope because of a sister like Chunzhi.
As the night deepened, Chunzhi said to Yuzhu, "It's getting late. I'm going to take Xiaoxing back first."
Yuzhu said, "I'll take my sister there."
As they were talking, they walked to Luohan's bed, but Xiaoxinghui refused to leave and kept holding Nian'er.
Chunzhi originally thought that Xiaoxing had lived in Qiwu Palace for several months and might not recognize Nian'er after returning. The two little guys would need several days to get used to each other before they could be as close as before.
As a result, Xiaoxinghui and Nian'er still remembered each other, played together better than before, and were unwilling to separate.
Chunzhi could only coax Xiaoxing back, saying that it was too late and he should go back to sleep and play with Nian'er tomorrow.
Yuzhu also told Nian'er that Xiaoxing would live in their own palace after he returned, and they would be able to see each other every day and play together. They should just stop here for today and go to bed so that they can get up early tomorrow to play together.
The two little guys seemed to understand what they heard, but at least Chunzhi and Yuzhu were able to carry the person away.
Chunzhi carried Xiaoxing back to the main courtyard. The little guy wanted to stick with his mother and play with Nian'er today. In fact, he was already tired. Now he was sleeping soundly on Chunzhi's shoulder.
As soon as Cui'er, Qingye and others saw the princess coming back, they came forward to greet her.
"I'll hold the young master. Princess, please rest for a while."
Ever since the young master entered the palace, the wet nurse has been receiving monthly wages for free in the palace for several months. Her life has been comfortable but also anxious. Moreover, the young master is so smart and clever that the wet nurse misses him very much.
"Take him to my room."
Chunzhi handed Xiaoxing back to the wet nurse.
The nurse knew that the princess had been separated from the young prince for too long and wanted to sleep with the child, so she quickly replied, "Yes."
Chunzhi took a bath and washed off the dust from the journey.
When Cui'er was in Xizhou, she always followed the princess around, acting like a first-class maid. After arriving at the Chang'an Palace, she found that these maids were better than the ladies of ordinary families in terms of clothing, manners and etiquette.
She wanted to go forward and serve the princess, but she didn't get the chance.
The little girl was still a little disappointed. Seeing this, Qingye told her that there were still many things to do in the palace and she didn't have to stay by the princess's side to serve her.
Moreover, the princess always does things on her own and doesn't like to have many people around her.
Cui'er had been with the princess for quite some time, so she naturally knew that what Qingye said was true, so she pulled Qingye's sleeve and said, "What else can I do? Please teach me, sister."
Qingye smiled and said, "Don't worry, just learn slowly."
After Chunzhi finished bathing and washing up, when she walked into the inner room, she saw Xiaoxinghui was already asleep. She asked the wet nurse and others to go downstairs to rest, tiptoed onto the couch, lay down beside the child who was full of milk fragrance, and leaned over to kiss his little face.
After not seeing each other for so long, she thought about her child even in her dreams.
Queen Wang raised her child very well, and the child became plump, fair and happy.
Chunzhi moved closer to Xiaoxing and looked at him for a long time before she felt that the child was right next to her.
On the day she returned to the capital, she met many people and talked a lot, and only at this moment did she calm down.
It was quiet all around and the night breeze was blowing gently.
Chunzhi was lying on the couch, and suddenly remembered what her father said about Princess Xiling coming to Daxing for marriage and choosing Huo Zheng.
She believed in Huo Zheng and knew that he was not the kind of person who would simply give in when faced with problems.
Huo Zheng said that he would never marry again in this life.
But Chunzhi couldn't help but worry about how Huo Zheng would solve this problem.
She thought about it for a long time and had a headache.
I had to close my eyes and stop myself from worrying too early.
The book says, when the enemy comes, we will fight them; when the water comes, we will block it with earth.
Just act according to the circumstances.
…
On the other side, Xizhou.
Jiedushi Mansion, main hall.
A group of civil and military officials were also worried about the fact that Princess Xiling came to Daxing to marry and chose the King of Chang'an, so they gathered together to discuss it.
"This Princess Xiling must have chosen our Prince Chang'an on purpose. She wants to create problems for us in Daxing!"
"The prince has already married a wife and has a legitimate son. How can he divorce his wife and marry another just because of Princess Xiling's words?"
"I should have killed Princess Xiling earlier!"
The generals were both angry and annoyed.
Some civil officials said, "Princess Xiling's marriage to Daxing is a matter of great importance to both countries. She must have her own considerations for choosing Prince Chang'an. With state affairs at stake, a slight adjustment to a personal matter is acceptable."
"Prince Chang'an is unparalleled in his beauty, accomplished in both civil and military matters. Whether it's appearance or talent and ability, he's the best in the world. If it were me, I would choose Prince Chang'an too!"
Because the peace talks between the two countries have been dragging on for more than a month, the conditions on both sides were extremely outrageous at the beginning, but have gradually returned to normal now. It can be said that except for the issue of Princess Xiling marrying the King of Chang'an, which has not yet been reached, other peace negotiation conditions have basically been determined.
Therefore, the envoys who came from the capital to Xizhou for peace talks all felt that the King of Chang'an could definitely agree to it.
Huo Zheng sat at the head of the table. Upon hearing this, his handsome face darkened slightly. "So what you're saying is that if Princess Xiling wants to marry, then I have to marry her?"
