Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 224 Don't Joking

As long as she wasn't facing the Crown Prince or the Crown Princess, Madam Hai thought she had nothing to fear, so she smiled and knelt down to greet Wang Xifeng and the others: "I, the old servant Hai, greet Wang Liangdi, Wu Liangyuan, and Li Chenghui."

All three of them stepped aside and bowed in return.

Wang Xifeng then introduced Li Chenghui: "This is Madam Hai who is beside the Queen."

Looking at the trembling and numb Kailan due to fear, he smiled and said to Madam Hai, "Madam, I think you are here from the Crown Princess's side? Is there any instruction from the Queen Mother?"

Madam Hai smiled and nodded, "Yes. The Queen heard last night that His Majesty intended to grant marriage to the King of the North and Lady Jia, and she was very happy. This morning she sent someone to tell Lady Jia a few words.

"Originally, Prince Su asked for this mission, but he didn't see the Crown Prince after the trip, so he had to return home. This old servant who can enter the back hall came instead."

Ouch!

With just one sentence, the blame was vaguely put back on the prince.

Wang Xifeng burst out laughing: "Madam, don't joke!

“Although Ms. Jia is only a maid in my Eastern Palace now, she is still the legitimate daughter of the Duke’s Mansion and an unmarried girl. There is absolutely no reason for her to easily meet a man outside her family!

“Prince Su is already an adult. Apart from going to Cheng’en Hall to kowtow to his sister-in-law, I don’t think he has the freedom to move around in the back hall.

"Then how will Prince Su announce this order? Ask the Crown Prince to accompany him? Is he here to announce the order, or to watch the fun?

"He is a prince, if he just wanted to watch the fun, he could just say he came to see the prince; why would he take on such an assignment?

"Aren't you afraid that people would say that he gave up his pride as a prince just to do favors for Prince Beijing and the Duke of Rong?

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, dear Mammy, please stop making me laugh!

"If Prince Su gets angry after hearing your joke, we won't help you!"

As she spoke, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed so hard that her body shook.

Nanny Hai's face darkened.

Everyone knows that this is an excuse, and it is indeed a poor excuse, but no one will point out that it is just an excuse.

Only Wang doesn't give me face!

Isn't this giving yourself face?!

This is not giving face to the Queen!

"Forget it, forget it. What does Prince Su want to do? He is the prince's brother, and they should deal with it themselves.

"Since you are here to convey the Queen's instructions to Lady Jia, please go to the back room where Lady Jia is.

"Chun Nuan, show the way to Madam." Wang Xifeng smiled and just passed over the previous topic.

Madam Hai's expression became even uglier: "Wang Liang Di is not going to kneel and listen with all the concubines?"

Wang Xifeng was stunned: "Oh, we can listen too? Since the Queen Mother is giving Ms. Jia an oral instruction, I think it is some kind of consolation and admonition.

"Firstly, the Queen is kindhearted as the former master, and secondly, it concerns the dignity of the future Princess Beijing. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to just stand by and watch, right?"

Madam Hai was stunned by her words, but she couldn't say that she really had the intention to drag these people into the water, so she could only force a smile and said, "Wang Liang Di really knows the rules."

"After all, Aunt Meng was appointed by the Empress herself to teach me for three years. If I make another mistake, I will be spanked!" Wang Xifeng kindly asked her to leave quickly, "Madam, please go."

He told Chun Nuan, "After Madam has finished delivering her message, you and your sister Gan Lan will escort her out of the palace together."

She apologized to Madam Hai again, "We are planning to visit Mei Liangyuan together, so we will not accompany you. If the Queen has any instructions for us in the future, we will respectfully welcome you, Madam."

Nanny Hai stared blankly as she watched Wang Xifeng, Wu Liangyuan and Li Chenghui gracefully leave the Yichun Palace.

Chun Nuan smiled sympathetically and said, "Mammy, please go and pass on the message first.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is currently in the main hall of Yi Qiu Palace. He has sent a message saying that anyone who wants to visit should go while he is in charge and that they are not allowed to disturb Mei Liangyuan while she is pregnant.

"That's why you all hurried over there. I really didn't mean to ignore you."

When the steps were brought to her feet, Nanny Hai's face lit up and she smiled: "Why didn't you say so earlier? I have to kowtow to the prince before I leave."

Chunnuan ignored this and asked Ganlan with a friendly smile whether he wanted to sit outside for a while or go into the back room together.

Nanny Hai didn't care whether the two palace maids were around or not. She called the sick Yuanchun up from her bed, had her kneel on the ground, and made up a few random words of advice. Finally, she said coldly:

"Now that your fate has been decided, you must be more careful in what you say and do!"

So I wanted to leave.

Kailan and Chunnuan both looked at her with strange expressions.

——The Queen came to admonish the bride-to-be, but she didn't even give her any jewelry?!

Nanny Hai felt ashamed inwardly, she almost forgot!

After a pause, he continued, "The Queen also ordered a few treasures to be given to Lady Jia as makeup. Lady Jia is in the East Palace now, so it is inconvenient. Wait until you return home, and I will send them to you, which will be more decent."

A flash of surprise flashed through Jia Yuanchun's mind, but it was immediately overshadowed by the joy of being granted marriage to Prince Beijing. At that moment, even her injuries were three points lighter, and her cheeks were slightly flushed with pink shyly. She really looked like a young girl in love.

Nanny Hai sneered in her heart and didn't care what she thought. After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Kailan and Chunnuan hurriedly followed out.

Madam Hai smiled and said, "Since I have come to the Eastern Palace and have received good news, can I go to the main hall of Yiqiu Palace to meet the Crown Prince and take a look at Mei Liangyuan's pregnancy, and then go back to report to the Queen?"

How dare they say no?

I had no choice but to lead the way to Yi Qiu Palace again.

Gan Lanqiang smiled and said, "It's just right. The Crown Princess asked me to go take a look today. I'll go with Madam."

To prevent you, an old shrew, from causing any trouble, I can report it to the Crown Princess in time!

The three men rushed to Yi Qiu Palace, where the main hall was filled with flowers and laughter.

The prince sat in the center of the upper seat, with Wang Xifeng on his left and Mei Ruoqin on his right.

The others were led by Wu Liangyuan, with Li Chenghui, Geng Simiao, Shi Zhaoxun, Sang Zhaoxun, Deng Fengyi and Song Fengyi on both sides.

As Nanny Hai entered, all the girls who were chatting and laughing stopped, and more than ten people all looked over there.

The prince smiled and said, "Madame Hai is here? Is there something important that Queen Mother wants to tell you? It was not enough to send my seventeenth brother first, so now you have sent Madame Hai as well?"

Nanny Hai looked embarrassed.

Wang Xifeng pursed her lips and smiled, then she opened her mouth and openly said the excuse she had refuted before, and then she laughed and said, "I think Madam Hai has finished delivering the message to Lady Jia, and she came to see Mei Liangyuan on the way, so that she can go back and report to the Empress!"

Mammy Hai breathed a sigh of relief, with a broad smile on her face, even with a hint of flattery:

"Your Highness the Crown Prince got drunk at dinner last night. Has he recovered now? The Empress is worried about you and has asked me to ask you carefully."

"No one dared to disturb a pregnant woman, so I hid here yesterday and had a good sleep." The prince said, stretching and laughing, "I heard that my seventeenth brother stayed in the Queen's Palace last night.

"How old is he? He still goes to the Queen Mother whenever he encounters trouble, and even when he gets into trouble, he runs away and leaves it all to the Queen Mother and me to deal with!

"Really, they never grow up the same!"
