Drunk House

Duanhua heard the emperor sent someone to call her into the palace, and she looked at her mother.

Qingping said: "You just go, it's your uncle after all. It's not entirely your fault. If the emperor's brother attacks you, His Highness the Crown Prince will protect you."

 She is not worried.

Duanhua nodded, got into the carriage and entered the palace.

The emperor met Duanhua in a side hall. After she greeted her, the emperor looked Duanhua up and down. He hadn't seen Duanhua for a while, but he saw her standing obediently. She looked quite quiet and elegant, unlike before. Zhahuhu, he was surprised in his heart, "Duanhua, if I agree to you posting the imperial list to choose a husband for you, what will you do? Do you still want to marry into the East Palace?"

Duan Hua suddenly opened his eyes wide and blurted out: "Uncle Huang, do you agree? If I had known earlier, I would not have bothered the prince's cousin and come to you directly."

 The emperor was silent.

 When did he agree? He said if so.

Duanhua was discouraged, "But I have already promised to the prince's cousin. Wouldn't it be bad to go back on my word? Why don't you tell the prince's cousin yourself? If he agrees, I have no problem with it."

When the emperor heard this, he knew that this little girl didn't care much for the prince. As the prince said, it was just a coincidence. She was worried about getting married, and he wanted to marry the princess. They hit it off immediately. He was a little angry, "If I can get him to agree, Why did I ask you to come here?"

Duan Hua immediately said: "Since the prince's cousin does not agree, it is useless for you to ask me to come. I can't make the decision."

 The emperor choked.

Duan Hua looked at the emperor innocently and said, "Uncle Emperor, I am telling the truth. That is the prince's cousin. He snaps his fingers and I don't even dare to cry."

 The emperor was angry and said, "Stop talking about this, I can't see it."

He could remember that one time Yan Huisheng punished her harshly for endorsing her words. If she disobeyed, her husband would slap her on the palm of her hand. Her eyes were swollen from crying, and she came to the palace to complain to him. He couldn't find the fault of the prince, so he took advantage of the situation. The prince was punished. At that time, Duan Hua seemed to feel that he had taken revenge and was gloating about the prince's misfortune.

 Don’t dare to cry!

However, later, for some unknown reason, Duanhua chased Zhou Gu to the East Palace again, crying and making a fuss. The prince punished her again, but she never complained again.

Thinking of old things, the emperor's expression softened a little, "Do you really want to marry the prince?"

Duan Hua was embarrassed, "Uncle Huang, it's not that I really want to marry, but the prince's cousin is good-looking. My mother has admired me a lot. There is no one in the capital who is better-looking than Zhou Gu. The prince's cousin is good-looking, and there is no need for Zhou Gu." Regardless of the difference, I naturally want to get married."

The emperor was angry, "Are you just joking about your life-long event just to look good?"

Duanhua sighed, "Uncle Emperor, all the beauties in your palace are as beautiful as flowers. You don't like the ugly ones."

 The implication is that everyone loves beauty, and you are no exception. Why do you ask me to be an exception and face an ugly husband every day?

 The emperor choked completely.

Duanhua stepped forward, took the emperor's arm, pulled his sleeves and said coquettishly, "Uncle Emperor, why do you look down on me? I am your niece. Isn't it good for me to marry the prince's cousin?"

The emperor's forehead jumped suddenly, "If you were not my niece, you have caused so many troubles, and I would have told your whole family to get out of the capital."

Duan Hua chuckled, "Uncle, so, are you saying that you don't agree with me marrying the prince's cousin? I don't have any objection, but I don't want to tell the prince's cousin that I won't marry. You still have to be honest. If you don't agree, you can go and ask the prince's cousin to change his mind and post me the imperial list, I have no objection."

The emperor brushed her hand away and said angrily, "Get out of here!" Duanhua refused to leave, but asked, "What do you mean? Then shall I marry or not?"

"I see that you haven't learned the rules well yet. Tomorrow I will personally send two nuns to the princess's house to teach you the rules." The emperor said with a straight face, "If you want to be a princess, how can you do it without rules? Get out of here!"

Duan Hua grimaced and still didn't want to get out, but if she kept pushing on, she might be left in the palace to learn the rules, which would be fatal, so she nodded obediently and got out.

The emperor laughed angrily when he saw her running fast, "When you are sensible, you will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and judge the situation carefully."

 When Duanhua left the side hall, he immediately grabbed a young **** and asked, "Do you know where the prince is?"

 “His Royal Highness seems to be in the meeting hall.”

Duanhua nodded, held up the hem of her skirt and walked down the jade steps. She planned to go to the door of the meeting hall and wait for Yan Huihui. She wanted to tell him that her uncle would personally appoint two nuns from the palace to teach her the rules. She didn't want to, but she walked a while. Finally, she stopped and sighed, how could she be too unruly to be a princess? She has always had bad rules since she was a child, and she thinks she should learn from them.

It doesn't matter if she gets into trouble as a princess, her mother and the emperor's uncle are there to take care of her. But if she gets into trouble as a princess, it will be the prince's cousin who loses her face.

He has never been embarrassed since he was a child. If he marries her, it will always make him embarrassed, right? Will it damage his dignity?

 So, she can’t go, she has to learn the rules.

Furthermore, the emperor's uncle didn't do anything to her. He only asked her a few questions, sent two nuns to teach her the rules, and let her go easily. She should be content. Otherwise, if it were anyone else, I would probably go back crying.

So, she turned around and walked out of the palace again.

Going to the palace gate and getting on the carriage, she whispered, "Am I too sensible?"

The first step to being a good wife is not to cause trouble to your fiancé? She realized she was already doing it.

 Back at the Princess Mansion, Qingping saw that Duanhua had come back intact. She asked, "How was it? Did your imperial uncle not make things difficult for you?"

Duanhua shook his head and recounted the story of entering the palace to meet the emperor. Then he took Qingping's arm and said to her: "Mom, am I very sensible? I didn't go to the meeting hall to wait for the prince's cousin. He moved to save me."

Qingping reached out and poked her forehead, "She is very sensible. You should learn the rules."

Duanhua sighed, "But if I don't marry the prince's cousin, I don't have to study so well."

Qingping nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "What do you think of Su Rong's rules?"

"good."

"That's it. It is said that your aunt taught her the rules since she was a child. Later, Aunt Zhao taught her again, and she learned them seriously. Rules are something that you have to know, but how you keep them and how to use them depends on you. In the future You become the crown princess and are locked up in the East Palace. You can do whatever you want behind your back. Your cousin knows what you look like and won't criticize you harshly. But you can't embarrass yourself in front of others. You have to stand up for what you need to do."

Duanhua sighed, "The prince's cousin also said that he would appoint someone to help me. I knew how could it be so easy? There must be a lot for me to do."

Qingping was funny, "You fancy his face, and you can't afford not to pay for it even if you marry the person you want to marry, right?"

Duan Hua felt that this was right. He immediately became energetic and said loudly, "Yes."

Who would dare to laugh at her in the future for marrying someone worse than Zhou Gu? The prince's cousin is the best.
