When Su Zhilan saw Baiguo coming over mysteriously, she thought she was going to say something new, but it turned out that she mentioned those concubines and ladies-in-law.
The emperor has ordered that they must be carried into the palace together, and they must be carried in today.
Seeing that Bai Guo seemed to be somewhat hostile towards the concubines, Su Zhilan took the opportunity to instruct Bai Guo, "We are new here, and you are my maidservant. I am afraid that everyone is watching your every word and action."
"We won't bully others, but we won't let ourselves be bullied either. Be alert these few days and tell me if anything happens."
Baiguo nodded solemnly and took note of Su Zhilan's words.
This time, the young lady entered the palace with only her as a dowry. She needed to work harder and help the young lady gain a firm foothold in the Eastern Palace.
We must not cause trouble for the young lady and cause unnecessary trouble.
Just as the two finished talking, two palace maids came in from outside.
He knelt down and bowed respectfully.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Crown Princess, your servant Shuanghua."
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Crown Princess, your servant Shuangye."
Su Zhilan asked the two to stand up and answer, "Are you the senior palace maids serving in the main courtyard?"
Shuanghua replied, "In reply to the Crown Princess, the two of us are your senior palace maids."
"Everything we do is based on your Majesty's preferences and habits. If you have anything to say, please just tell us."
Shuangye looked at Baiguo and said, "This sister is the dowry of the Crown Princess. In the future, I will have to rely on you to provide more guidance for the servants."
Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been living in the Eastern Palace for some time, there are only two eunuchs serving him personally.
The palace maids were not allowed to get close to him, and they didn't know what kind of personality his prince had.
Just now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince beat the aunt in charge to death with a stick, and they were also frightened.
I know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is ruthless and values the Crown Princess.
So the two of them responded and saluted with utmost respect, fearing that they would follow in the footsteps of the aunt in charge.
Su Zhilan didn't say much, but just asked the two of them to take Baiguo to familiarize herself with the layout of the main house.
Everything else will have to wait until tomorrow.
After Baiguo became familiar with the layout of the main room, he helped Su Zhilan take a bath and change into loose pajamas.
Shuanghua and Shuangye also knew their limits and did not step forward to serve closely.
Instead, they rush to do the dirty and tiring work.
After Su Zhilan took a shower, Shuanghua brought in a bowl of shredded chicken porridge and four plates of side dishes.
He said respectfully, "Your Majesty has been busy all day, so please eat less porridge."
Su Zhilan thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait until His Highness comes back."
She said she was waiting for Song Hongshen, firstly because she felt it was not good for her to eat first, and secondly because she was worried about the people in the Eastern Palace.
What if there is some medicine in the porridge and something happens? We must always be on guard.
Shuanghua and Shuangye answered yes, then retreated to the door as if knowing the signal.
Only the master and servant were left in the room, and they could talk privately.
Su Zhilan leaned against the head of the bed and felt bored, so she asked Baiguo to bring over the red dates, longans, peanuts and lotus seeds that she had just collected.
No one would cheat on these things.
She motioned Baiguo to sit down as well, and they both ate peanuts.
Bai Guo looked outside and asked, "Why hasn't His Highness returned yet? Isn't the banquet over by now?"
The more Su Zhilan chewed the peanuts, the hungrier she felt. She wondered in her heart, why hasn't he come back yet?
Now that he is back, she can eat in peace.
Song Hongshen didn't know that he was being remembered by his Crown Princess.
As soon as the banquet in the front hall ended, he saw off several court officials and walked towards the bridal chamber.
To get from the front hall to the main house at the back, one has to pass by the plum forest on the west side of the East Palace.
This month, the plum blossoms have not yet bloomed, but the pink buds can already be seen.
When I walked to the path outside Merlin, I saw a woman dancing with a sword in an open space next to Merlin.
She was wearing a long, red, waisted dress. As her skirt fluttered, the long sword in her hand swept the snow off the plum tree.
The white snow and pink flower buds fall together, making people look lively and beautiful.
Song Hongshen stopped and looked at the scene in front of him coldly.
"Who is this?" he asked with a frown.
Upon hearing this, the eunuch Liu Bao, who was serving him personally, replied, "Your Highness, this is Consort Zheng, the daughter of the General who Assists the State."
Zheng Nanqing, who was dancing with the sword at this time, naturally noticed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had stopped.
She was delighted, as it was exactly as she expected.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a military commander, so he naturally prefers her. How could a girl as delicate as the Crown Princess possibly catch his eye?
Zheng Nanqing thought so in her heart, but she did not stop her actions.
When he turned around, he saw Song Hongshen with his arms folded across his chest, looking at him seriously, which made him even more delighted.
She started spinning and jumping according to her previous plan.
Finally, he pretended to lose his balance and fell towards Song Hongshen.
Zheng Nanqing thought that with the Crown Prince's skills, he would definitely catch her.
As he fell over, Song Hongshen's resolute and stern face gradually became larger in Zheng Nanqing's eyes.
Song Hongshen snorted lightly, raised the corners of his mouth, and calmly took three steps back.
Immediately afterwards, Zheng Nanqing lay down in front of Song Hongshen.
Zheng Nanqing was so charming before, but now she looks so miserable.
She didn't understand how this could happen. After all, she was the Crown Prince's concubine. Even if they didn't have feelings for each other, he shouldn't have let her fall to the ground.
After all, Zheng Nanqing had been practicing martial arts since childhood, so although he fell hard, he got up quickly.
"Your Highness, have I offended you?" Zheng Nanqing bowed and saluted Song Hongshen aggrievedly.
Song Hongshen had an expression that showed he could see through her thoughts. He sneered and said, "It's good that Concubine Zheng knows that she has offended me."
"Come here, Concubine Zheng is under house arrest for offending me."
After saying this, Song Hongshen lightly shook off his robe, raised his foot and left.
Zheng Nanqing stared at Song Hongshen's departing figure, stunned. She had said that to show weakness, not to receive punishment.
"Your Highness..."
She wanted to say more, but was stopped by Xue Jing, "My Lady Concubine, please."
Before Song Hongshen returned to the main house, the news that he was watching Concubine Zheng dancing with a sword by the plum grove had already reached Su Zhilan's ears.
Baiguo originally went to get the clothes that Su Zhilan would wear when she paid her respects to the emperor tomorrow.
When I came out of the room where the dowry items were kept, I heard two maids whispering.
It is said that Concubine Zheng was dancing with a sword by the bamboo forest, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was staring at her with his eyes wide open. It is likely that he will not be able to come to the Crown Princess's place.
What they said was so convincing that Baiguo was also panicked.
He hurried in, walked quickly to Su Zhilan and told her about this.
At this moment, Su Zhilan had finished eating peanuts and was peeling longan.
After hearing Bai Guo's words, his expression did not change at all, and he said, "No, Your Highness will definitely come back today."
Su Zhilan spoke with full confidence and without hesitation, as if she had complete trust in Song Hongshen.
Bai Guo seemed to have suddenly figured something out when he heard this, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, you are so sure. Have you noticed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats you differently?"
