This host is crazy

Chapter 30
The next day, the sun was three poles high, and the first wine didn't get up.

As soon as she left the house after washing, she saw Qiu He waiting outside the door.

"Miss, the general asked you to go to the main courtyard. His Royal Highness came down. He knew you hadn't gotten up yet, so he didn't call you. He was waiting for you to get up and go."

Chu Jiu stretched his arms upwards vigorously, and stretched his waist.

"Well, I see, I'll go there now."

When the first wine arrived, General Murong, Mrs. Murong and Fu Shengmian were discussing the wedding procedures.

"Father, mother, good morning"

Mrs. Murong shook her head, and said helplessly: "You girl, when is this, is it too early?"

Chu Jiu walked to Mrs. Murong's side, took her arms with both hands, and walked beside her.

"Mother~"

Seeing her acting like a baby, Mrs. Murong smiled and patted her hand.

"His Royal Highness is here, restrain yourself."

Fu Shengmian was very envious when he saw Chu Jiu acting like a baby to Mrs. Murong.

When did Chujiu act like a baby to him?

She blushed and said, "Mother-in-law is fine. I like to see Chujiu like this. Chujiu comes here as soon as he wakes up. She should be hungry. Let her go and eat first."

Mrs. Murong and General Murong looked at each other. They were very pleased that Fu Shengmian, as the crown prince, could treat their daughter so well and be so careful.

Chushu rubbed his stomach.

"I'm a little hungry."

Mrs. Murong chuckled lightly: "I have prepared food for you, let's go to the dining room to eat."

Chu Jiu let go of Mrs. Murong's hand.

"Then, father, mother, I'm going to eat first."

General Murong watched the whole process. Although he didn't speak, he was very satisfied with his daughter's pampering and Fu Shengmian's words just now.

Chujiu passed by Fu Shengmian.

"Does His Royal Highness want to be together?"

"Okay." Fu Shengmian looked up at her and said softly.

Then he went out with Chujiu.

General Murong and Mrs. Murong were the only ones left in the living room. They looked at each other and smiled, obviously very satisfied with His Highness the Crown Prince doting on their daughter.

In the dining room, the dishes on the table were still steaming, obviously just prepared.

The porridge in the bowl is warm, just right to drink.

After eating half of the first wine, Fu Shengmian kept looking at him.

"How do you think I'll be full after eating?"

Fu Shengmian nodded blankly.

“Beautiful food”

Chujiu laughed "haha" and said, "I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be so good at making girls happy."

Fu Shengmian said seriously: "I only want to make you happy."

After thinking for a while, he said: "Murong Chuyin will come to give you gifts in a few days. Don't see her, let alone let her enter your yard."

Chujiu drank the remaining porridge in one gulp, and put another mouthful of vegetables into his mouth.

"His Royal Highness is quite well-informed, but you'd better not interfere. I've already thought of how to give them a gift in return."

Fu Shengmian knew that Fu Shengming was going to hurt her because of his eyeliner in the second prince's residence, but how did Chujiu know?
Although he has some doubts, he just believes in Chujiu and won't hurt himself.

I don't know why, but my trust in her is very firm.

So nodded.

"Okay, do I still need to send a few people over?"

The first wine was almost finished, so I put down the chopsticks in my hand.

"No, Murong Chuyin will come over in a few days, and I will let Anfeng and the others go back to you first, so as not to accidentally hurt them when they get there."

Fu Shengmian wanted to say, "How can you do it alone?" But when the words came to his lips, looking at Chu Jiu's serious eyes, he swallowed them back.

"I listen to you, be careful."

Chujiu is very satisfied with Fu Shengmian's trust in him.

He smiled and said: "It should be that those who want to plot against me should be more careful." His eyes turned cold as he said.

Seeing Chu Jiu's expression, Fu Shengmian somehow felt that this was the real her.

The two returned to the living room. General Murong and Mrs. Murong were still there, but they were really discussing what to use for Chujiu's dowry.

Seeing that Chujiu and the others are back, I won't talk anymore.

This time at the first drink, the four of them chatted about the process of the wedding day and the details of the wedding.

Near noon, Fu Shengmian wanted to enter the palace to visit the queen, so he didn't stay for lunch.

After he left, Mrs. Murong held Chujiu and talked about the grand occasion when Fu Shengmian came to give the dowry in the morning.

In the Daliang Kingdom, when a man and a woman get married, the betrothal gift given by the man to the woman is at least six taels, which is six boxes of dowry.

Those with better family conditions will have eight lifts, sixteen lifts, eighteen lifts, etc., and so on.

The more satisfied the man is with the woman, the more betrothal gifts he will give her.

When the emperor was still a prince, he married the current queen and gave 660 six dowry gifts.

Today, Fu Shengmian actually sent 880 eight carry dowries.

Although he came early, there were many people on the street.

The entrance to Murong's Mansion was crowded with people, and they watched the people from the Prince's Mansion carrying betrothal gifts and entering box after box.

Fortunately, Murong's mansion is big enough and there are a few empty warehouses, otherwise they wouldn't be able to store the betrothal gifts.

Chujiu listened to Mrs. Murong, talking about the scene when Fu Shengmian just came to deliver the dowry, and laughed from ear to ear.

"Xiaojiu, at first, mother was afraid that the prince and you are not suitable, but now seeing the prince's attitude towards you, mother is thinking too much."

Chujiu didn't expect that Fu Shengmian would send so many betrothal gifts. Although he didn't show it on the surface, he felt comfortable in his heart.

General Murong went to the barracks after Fu Shengmian left and did not come back for lunch.

Only Chujiu and Madam Murong were left in the living room, talking intermittently.

It's just that Mrs. Murong said most of the time, Chujiu nodded from time to time.

At noon, Chujiu opened his mouth.

"Mom, it's time for lunch."

Only then did Mrs. Murong stop.

In the next few days, Mrs. Murong got busy, she had to prepare the dowry for the first wine.

Every day in several storerooms in the mansion, parents and children choose items to be used as dowry for Chujiu.

There is no time to manage the first wine.

But Chujiu is very idle, with Mrs. Murong as the dowry and Fu Shengmian as the wedding.

I just eat, drink, and sleep all day, and I was really bored, so I asked the second prince Congxin when he would act, and asked him to give him a live commentary.

The days are also considered fulfilling.

There are still five days until Chujiu gets married.

Murong Hatsune came late.

These two people really can bear their temper, Chujiu thought.

This time because it was Fu Shengming who asked her to come, no matter what, she was the second prince, so Murong Chuyin was the one to send the congratulatory gift.

General Murong still wants to give Fu Shengming face.

So Murong Chuyin met Chujiu easily.

Chujiu knew what she was here for, and Congxin reminded him in advance that Chujiu sat in the gazebo in the yard and waited for her.

He also sent out all the servants of the rough envoy in advance, leaving only Qiu He to wait on him.

Because the weather is getting cooler, silk and veils are hung outside the gazebo.

The wind blew, and the veil swayed gently. Chu Jiu sat on a cushioned chair in the gazebo, drinking tea slowly.

Murong Hatsune saw such a scene after entering.

Jealousy flickered in his eyes.

Then walked over.

"Yin'er has met her sister, I wish her and the prince a happy wedding and a happy marriage for a hundred years in advance"

Speaking the truth, the maid behind her brought up the prepared gift.

She took the gift box from the maid.

"Sister, this is a wish from Brother Shengming and Yin'er"

After speaking, he gave the box to Chushu.

As a concubine, Murong Chuyin is not qualified to attend Chujiu's wedding.

Chu Jiu didn't make things difficult for her, and took the box.

"Sister, don't stand still, sit down quickly, and thank the second prince for me."

Murong Hatsune sat opposite Chujiu.

"Sister, why don't you open it and see if you like it?"

Chujiu glanced at her, reached out and opened the box. It was a set of pure gold hair accessories, exquisitely made, with lifelike flowers on the hairpins, and dotted with these...diamonds.

As far as Chujiu knows, there is no diamond bar here.

At this time Murong Hatsune said: "Sister, isn't it very beautiful? On this set of hair accessories, the shiny things are called light stones. It is said that under the sunlight, they will emit dazzling light, so they are called light stones. It was purchased at a high price from a foreign merchant."

Chujiu naturally heard a sour taste in Murong Chuyin's tone.

With a smile on his face, he closed the box.

"It's really beautiful, I like it very much"

Murong Hatsune glanced at the closed box, and forced a smile.

"Sister likes it."

Chu Jiu took a sip of tea, but didn't answer, waiting for Murong Hatsune's next move.

"Sister, I want to tell you something. Can you let the maid go out first?"

Chu Jiu said with a half-smile: "Of course, you can." Then he turned to Qiu He and said, "Qiu He, go to the kitchen first and make me a bowl of lotus seed soup."

Qiu He nodded in response, and went out of the yard to the kitchen.

Murong Chuyin also asked her servant girl to wait outside the courtyard.

There was no one else in the yard now, only Chujiu and Murong Chuyin were left.

Murong Chuyin quietly put her hand into her cuff, took the medicine bag, and pretended to lean against Chujiu's side.

"elder sister……"

As he spoke, he sprinkled the whole package of medicine in his hand at Chujiu.

In Chu Jiu's eyes, she was in slow motion.

The moment the medicine was sprinkled, Chujiu waved his sleeve, and a gust of wind blew the medicine powder back.

Murong Hatsune sprinkled a pack of medicine without wasting anything, covering her head and face.

Murong Chuyin was stunned by the sudden situation, and immediately fell down on the table.

The teacup next to her hand was knocked to the ground by her and shattered in response.

Chu Jiu shook his head, "It's a pity for my teacup."

Standing up, he put a pill into Murong Hatsune's mouth, and Murong Hatsune's appearance began to change slowly, until he completely turned into the same face as Chu Jiu.

Chu Jiu waved his hands in satisfaction, and he turned into Murong Hatsune.

Then he took out a whistle from Murong Chuyin's sleeve, put it to his mouth and blew a few times.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Jiu felt the breath of several strangers approaching quickly.

Six masked people from Heizi stood outside the gazebo.

"Sound concubine"

Chujiu coughed lightly, imitating Murong Hatsune's voice.

Pointing at the person lying on the table, he said, "Take her away."

One of the six men in black walked over, took out a big black cloth bag, put Murong Hatsune who was on the table in the shape of Chujiu into it, and picked it up.

The six jumped up and disappeared in front of Chu Jiu.

Chu Jiu didn't change back to his own appearance, and walked to the gate of the yard with Murong Hatsune's face on his face.

"You go back and tell Brother Shengming that the matter is settled, and I will go back by myself later"

Chujiu endured his nausea, imitating Murong Chuyin's tone of voice.

The servant girl is Fu Shengming's person, knowing that the matter was done, she turned around obediently and left.
