Princess, how am I from you?

As soon as Yuzhang left, the mansion was deserted, Guan Xin sighed faintly, calmly sorted out the rest of the plan, and sent someone to Wei Wang's mansion.Yuzhang went to the Tang Manor and didn't say when she would be back, and she didn't feel the nerve to ask, because she was afraid of Yuzhang's embarrassment, and she didn't want to put pressure on Yuzhang. At present, it's good, at least she only needs two days a month. Worrying, the rest of the time is hers, the real ostrich's heart.

It's really boring, so I took people to the restaurant to make it more lively.When she arrived, it happened to be just in time for lunch, and the bustling scene in the building made her temporarily forget those annoying thoughts.Shopkeeper Wang saw her enter the room, and immediately came out from the counter to say hello.

"Why did the girl come here today? Is there something to order?" Usually, she only came once every four or five days, but she came again in just two days, which is rare.

"It's boring in the mansion, come out and wander around, what happened in the past two days?"

"Young Master Qin of Duke Yi's Mansion, Second Young Master, Third Young Master, Fifth Young Master of Duke Lu's Mansion, Second Young Master of Yuchi Mansion, Second Young Master of Duke Cai's Mansion, and..."

"Wait, let's get to the point, what did they do?" Guan Xin couldn't be bothered to remember who these older people were.

"Come here twice, drank some wine, listened to the book for a while and left."

Guan Xin had a toothache and was annoyed by the old man, "No more? This is a restaurant, isn't it normal for them to come to eat? I'm asking you if anything special happened. Has anyone come to make trouble or something. "

Shopkeeper Wang suddenly realized, and shook his head affirmatively, "I really don't have anything special to say. If there was, I would have reported it to you a long time ago. Besides, who doesn't know that there are two princesses standing behind this restaurant, who dare to act wild here?" There are really not many people.”

Guan Xin slapped his forehead, "Okay, it's fine if there is none. I'll go to the kitchen."

"Hey, by the way, Miss, Miss Cheng and the wives of the Cheng family are having dinner at the Peony Pavilion on the second floor."

"Oh, then I'll go and say hello. Have they had a drink? Bring some more. They won't be charged for this meal, just put it on the account."

When Guan Xin knocked on the door of the Peony Pavilion with the wine in his hand, he saw Yingying and Yanyan in the room.Taking a quick look around, Guan Xin's attention was attracted by an elderly woman in the main seat who was still charming. She guessed it was Cheng Yujiao's mother.

"Xinxin, why are you here? I thought you wouldn't come out today. Mother, sisters-in-law, this is Guan Xin, the owner of this restaurant, whom you have been wanting to meet." Cheng Yujiao left immediately when she saw Guan Xin knocking on the door and entering the house. Sit forward.

"Well, she really looks pretty. No wonder Yujiao always talks about the girl's cleverness. When I saw her today, she really is." Mrs. Cheng put down the chopsticks in her hand and praised politely.

With a smile on his face, Guan Xin walked up to Mrs. Cheng, put down the tray in his hand, and saluted, "I've always heard that Madam, you are a heroic heroine. Today I see you, Guan Xin I am very honored. The last time I went to your mansion to learn martial arts with Yujiao, Yujiao hit too hard. I fell so hard that I ran away before I even had time to visit you. I am so happy to meet you here today. If there is anything dissatisfied with these dishes, you must tell me, and I will have someone make it for you again. Guan Xin sends my regards to all young ladies."

Guan Xin's familiar tone, as if she was a junior in her own family, made a small report in front of her elders, instantly reducing the strangeness between her and everyone.What a shrewd person Mrs. Cheng is, otherwise she wouldn't be able to control Cheng Yaojin's obedience. She could see that Cheng Yujiao really liked Guan Xin as a friend. Judging from this observation, Guan Xin is definitely not an ordinary woman. Said that a woman of Guan Xin's status, even if she came from the princess mansion, is just an ordinary servant, and she should be somewhat clinging to the daughter of the Cheng family, but from Guan Xin's eyes and tone She didn't feel any of that at all, she didn't have any humble flattery or clinging, Guan Xin put herself on an equal footing with Cheng Yujiao, what was the reason?But Mrs. Cheng didn't take Guan Xin's self-promotion as disobedience, but admired it very much. What's wrong with the girl?What about ordinary identities?Women should also have their own pride, and should not just be men's vassals, but only friends who make friends with an equal and non-attaching mentality can be called friends, otherwise, they are just superficial, and it doesn't matter if they don't make friends.

"Girl, you're welcome. Yujiao is quick to ask Miss Guan to sit down and talk. Next time, you can't strike so hard. No girl in your martial arts can stand it."

"Come on, Xinxin, come and sit down. Let me introduce you. This is my sister-in-law, who is easy to recognize. Looking at it this way, you can call her in order. There are six older brothers in the family, and six sister-in-laws here." Cheng Yujiao said mischievously. Guan Xin introduced that all the sister-in-laws were dumbfounded by her introduction, how could anyone introduce it like this.

Guan Xin said hello one by one, but didn't sit down. She came here just to say hello, but she didn't expect Mrs. Cheng to be there, so she couldn't stay, "Mrs. Cheng and young ladies take it easy, I won't sit down , I still have things to do outside. I specially brought this wine for you and the young ladies to taste. It tastes very good. You will not get drunk if you drink less. I wish Madam Cheng and all the young ladies a happy meal. Xin is going out now." Guan Xin smiled and said goodbye.

"Miss, go slowly." Madam Cheng nodded with a smile. Guan Xin's generous and decent behavior and knowing how to advance and retreat was once again affirmed by her.

"Let's go now, then wait, let me tell you something, mother, I'll go out for a while." Cheng Yujiao pulled Guan Xin to the aisle, and lowered her voice in Guan Xin's ear, "Yesterday you gave me a gift. Not long after the letter came, Dad came back and said that the prince has been grounded, so are you completely fine?"

"Well, the emperor has found out the truth, and it has nothing to do with me. Don't worry, go back to eat quickly. I should go to work too. It's rare to come here. I have to put on a show. Otherwise, I won't be called the boss. So lazy."

After dealing with Cheng Yujiao, Guan Xin couldn't help wondering, the victim of this incident was the crown prince, why was the victim grounded instead?When she was thinking about it, the young man from the mansion came to her and said that someone from Wei Wang's mansion had come to invite her to come to the mansion for a while.She thought that Li Tai would look for her tomorrow, but she didn't expect her to come and meet him so soon.It has nothing to do with her whether he is grounded or not, the important thing is to make money.After talking to shopkeeper Wang, he took people directly to Wei Wang's mansion.

In the afternoon, Yuzhang led Tang Jianri to rest in the room. When he was drowsy, Tang Jianri asked Yuzhang in a low voice, "Mother, when shall we go back?"

Yuzhang opened his eyes and looked at his son's immature face, guessing that this little guy probably didn't like the food in the Tang Mansion, so Guan Xin made the kid's mouth tricky. "Don't you want to spend more time with your grandparents?"

Tang Jianri frowned, and thought for a while, "I think about it, but the dishes in the house are not as good as Aunt Xin's, so mother can bring Aunt Xin here, so that grandparents can also taste the dishes made by Aunt Xin .”

"Aunt Xin still has a lot of things to do, so I can't come here. We will go back tomorrow, let's sleep."

Tang Jianri closed his eyes obediently, Yuzhang tucked him in the quilt, and closed his eyes to rest.When she was in a daze, she felt that someone was calling her, and she woke up abruptly. It turned out that Nuan Xin was calling her in a low voice beside her. She couldn't help being a little unhappy, and even her tone was a little resentful, "What's the matter?"

Nuan Xin saw the master's frowning and sticking out her tongue. She didn't want to provoke the master's anger when he got up, but there was nothing he could do. "The son-in-law is here. He was sitting outside for a while. The maid saw that it was about time, so she came to call you. Sister Xinxin said, you can't sleep for too long at noon, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep at night."

Yuzhang turned over and sat up, slowing down the irregular heartbeat when he was woken up, and then he stared warmly, stood up and walked outside.This girl followed Guan Xin's instructions thoroughly.But thinking of Guan Xin's careful and thoughtful words, the resentment just now dissipated a little.

"Why is the son-in-law coming back at this hour. It's okay, just sit down."

Tang Shanzhi saw Yuzhang walking out of the bedroom, and quickly stood up, trying to step forward to help him, but was stopped, so he had no choice but to sit down again, following closely with his eyes. "I heard from the people in the mansion that you came back with the day, and there is nothing important in the yamen, so you asked for leave and came back earlier."

Yuzhang took a sip of tea, lowered his eyes to hide a little irritability in his eyes, and said calmly, "It's important, the son-in-law doesn't need to do this, it's not good to be known by the emperor. The matter of taking a concubine I mentioned to you last time , the son-in-law can choose the person he likes."

"As I said last time, I don't want to take concubines. I have you alone. You don't need to worry about the Tang family's heirs. We already have days, and I still have those brothers."

"How can you be so inconsiderate of your parents as a child? My parents-in-law must hope to have many children and grandchildren, and my mother-in-law has also hinted at when I plan to have another child. My body is not up to snuff, but I can't delay you For the inheritance of this line of descendants, if you take a concubine, it can be regarded as an explanation for my mother-in-law."

"Mother is mother, and I am me. I have made up my mind. I don't need to take a concubine. The princess doesn't need to say much. I will go and explain it to my mother right now." Tang Shanzhi got up and went out. If he continued, he was afraid that Yuzhang would say something. Heli's words, that's not what he wants, and of course he doesn't expect Yuzhang to say soft words to make him feel at ease.

Yuzhangxiu frowned, Tang Shanshi's attitude was firmer than she imagined, if it was not necessary, she didn't want to propose a divorce right now, it wasn't because she was reluctant, it was because she was worried about her father's scolding, Tang Shanshi had no major fault, she didn't If the excuse is too strong, it will easily involve Guan Xin, which is too dangerous.Even if Guan Xin hadn't appeared, she would have wanted to take a concubine for Tang Shanshi a long time ago. After all, she didn't like intercourse, and she didn't like Tang Shanshi's approach. Besides, she was not in good health, and she might die someday. At that time, she didn't think about reconciling. Her original plan was to promise Nuan Yi and Nuan Xin to Tang Shanzhi as concubine. It can be seen that she takes good care of her son in terms of her relationship with her.But now she doesn't think so anymore, because of Guan Xin's appearance, she can live for many years, she just wants to keep the child by her side, why not let Tang Shanshi find another concubine she likes, but now It seems that things are not as simple as expected.

"Princess, why don't you directly mention this concubine matter to the old lady. I think the old lady will be very happy." Nuan Yi kindly advised the master, and she probably guessed a little bit of the master's thoughts.

"En." Yuzhang also felt that perhaps it would be easier to start with Tang's mother.

That night, Yuzhang didn't sleep well. Hearing the heavy panting in his ear, he closed his eyes, and couldn't help but recall the same bed with Guan Xin last night. It was also because there were more people around him, but the quality of sleep was extremely poor. difference.Guan Xin sleeps peacefully, panting very softly, you can hardly hear her voice if you don't listen carefully, the most important thing is that Guan Xin is beside her, she is not as nervous as imagined, she is completely relaxed, this is She herself was surprised.It was completely different from the moment, Tang Shanshi was behind her, not to mention the disturbing snoring, she really didn't like to get too close to him, let alone relax, so even if she barely fell asleep, she subconsciously avoided talking to him. He was so close that he couldn't sleep at all.

The result of poor sleep is poor energy and exhaustion the next day.After Tang Shanshi left, Yuzhang slept peacefully for a while, but after all, it was not as solid and comfortable as sleeping at night.

Nuan Yi and Nuan Xin looked at the princess's listless look, and thought it was because she was tired by the son-in-law last night, so they consciously went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of brown sugar egg water to nourish the master.

Yuzhang frowned and looked at the bowl in his hand, guessing that the two girls had misunderstood, so he didn't bother to explain, so he took a few sips silently. She really didn't sleep well and needed to make up for it.

"Bring the cloak, and go to greet the mother-in-law." After taking a few sips of hot sugar water, he calmed down his sluggish spirit, and was ready for the next lobbying.

Tang Jian was an aide of Li Shimin when he was still the King of Qin.Mrs. Tang is a typical housewife who marries her husband and follows her husband. Although she is from a famous family, her personal self-concept is true. Tang Shanshi is the fifth son.Therefore, she attaches great importance to the matter of women's childbearing and raising children. In her opinion, it is only natural for a woman to marry her husband and obey her husband, and to have children for her husband's family.If it wasn't for Yuzhang being the current princess, she would have already given her son Zhang Luo the job of taking a concubine.

When Yuzhang entered the room, Mrs. Tang was coaxing her grandson Tang Jianri. Rather than coaxing her, she was watching. Tang Jianri was playing with Luban locks, but she was watching with a bit of sadness. All she could think about was yesterday. What her fifth son came to say to her.Seeing Yuzhang enter the room, he immediately calmed down and put on a smile, "The princess is here."

"Yuzhang please greet my mother-in-law." Yuzhang bent slightly and blessed his body.

"Mother." Tang Jianri raised his head and called out, then lowered his head and continued playing.

"Quickly, come and sit, it's warm here. Speaking of this small heating kang, I heard that it was a handicraft handed down by a girl in your house. Thanks to this heating kang this winter, otherwise I will suffer a lot." less sin."

"She is an attendant in the daughter-in-law's house. It was my sister who found me from the people to relieve my boredom. It is thanks to her that I can improve my health now." Yuzhang sat on the side, a short distance away from Tang's mother.

"Then she is a great benefactor of our Tang family. Let's thank her for bringing her home some other day. Let's stay longer this time." Seeing Yuzhang's upright posture, Tang's mother subconsciously Sit up straighter, for fear of being rude.

"I'm going back in the afternoon. It's approaching the end of the year, and there are too many trivial matters in the mansion. I'll take some days to come back to visit the two elders. Yuzhang came here today to discuss something with his mother-in-law."

Hearing that Yuzhang was leaving so soon, Mrs. Tang was both disappointed and a little relieved. She was disappointed that she would leave so soon, and there was no time for the next grandson. She was relieved because facing Yuzhang, she was a mother-in-law. There is no deterrent effect at all, but I feel very stressed and uncomfortable. "Why bother the princess?"

"I know that my mother-in-law is eager for my grandson, but although my body has improved a bit, if I want to give birth, my life may be in danger, but the descendants of the Tang family are also very important, so I want to give my son-in-law a concubine. I also discussed it with the son-in-law. Although he disagreed, taking concubines is a matter in the backyard. I don't often travel between various houses, and I don't know which girl is suitable, so I ask my mother-in-law to take the trouble to see which one is suitable. The girl promises to the son-in-law, and as for the father, I will go and persuade myself, mother-in-law don't have to worry."

Mrs. Tang's eyes lit up instantly. She didn't expect that the matter that she was worried about just now would be resolved so soon. The princess offered to take her son as a concubine. How could they dare to disobey the princess' wishes as courtiers?

"So, I have wronged you, princess." Mrs. Tang suppressed the excitement in her heart, showing emotion on her face.

How could Yuzhang overlook the joy in those eyes, and lowered his eyes to signal, "Mother-in-law is worrying too much. It is the duty of a daughter-in-law to think about the children of the husband's family. My health is not good, and it is the son-in-law who has been wronged."

"Oh, it's hard for you." Mother Tang took Yuzhang's hand and patted it lightly.It's not that she doesn't like Yuzhang, but Yuzhang's cold temper makes her a little in awe, and she can't warm up.In addition, she didn't have much contact with her on weekdays, and she became more and more unfamiliar, but now it's better, her son can take a concubine, so she doesn't have to worry about the issue of heirs anymore.

Yuzhang smiled and said nothing.Not long after lunch, he led Tang Jianri and the two maids back to the Princess Mansion.She thought that Guan Xin would be waiting for her in the mansion, but when she arrived, Guan Xin was not in the mansion. The maids and servants still performed their duties as before, but without Guan Xin, she felt deserted.

"Where's Guan Xin?" Yuzhang called Chuntao to ask.

"Back to the princess, sister Xinxin went out in the morning and said that His Royal Highness King Wei invited her."

Yuzhang frowned, she didn't like Guan Xin getting too close to King Wei.Wei Wang Li Tai is not as honest and kind as he appears on the surface.They have been brothers and sisters for so many years, how could she not understand.

"It's still comfortable to go home." Nuan Xin sighed, she was also uncomfortable in the Tang Mansion, and couldn't eat or sleep well.

The sound of emotion interrupted Yuzhang's thoughts, and he smiled helplessly. He is still like a child at a young age, and he must be like her son, who dislikes the food at Tang's residence as delicious as home.In fact, let alone warming their hearts, even she herself is uncomfortable in the Tang Mansion, and the food is not unbearable, but after all, the taste is much worse than that at home.

Guan Xin was busy working outside for a day, and when he returned home at night, he found Yuzhang and the others had returned, and he was instantly overjoyed.Seeing my daughter-in-law, I even forgot to be tired.Taking advantage of Nuanxin Nuanyi's inattention, she pulled Yuzhang's hand, pouted and made a kiss, causing Yuzhang to roll her eyes at her, but her ears turned red.Guan Xin was laughing and laughing at the side, which made the two maids who didn't know why bewildered.

Tang Jianri was particularly satisfied at dinner, and even added half a bowl of Yuzhang.Guan Xin smacked her tongue, "The Tang Mansion didn't feed you two, why are you so hungry?"

"Grandma's food is not as good as Aunt Xin's. Next time, Aunt Xin will come with us. I haven't had enough food for the past two days." Tang Jianri pursed his mouth aggrieved after finishing speaking.

Guan Xin rubbed his head amusedly, "Little Greedy Cat, let your mother choose someone to take with you in the kitchen next time, so as not to starve our little son again, Aunt Xin will feel bad." Looking up at Yuzhang , seems a little tired, it seems that I didn't sleep well last night, as to why I didn't sleep well, heh, "I see you are a little tired, so I won't do yoga today, I will digest and rest later."

Yuzhang looked at Guan Xin intently, and seemed to be smiling a bit forcedly, he was fine just now, "Do you have something on your mind? Or is it that things outside are not going well?"

Guan Xin smiled and shook his head, "No, I don't have anything on my mind. Things went well, and I went to Wei Wangfu today. It turns out that the chief minister of Wei Wangfu is Du Min's second uncle, but I remember that Du He is on the side of the prince. Well, this Du family is quite interesting." Typical eggs are not put in one basket, but unfortunately the last two are broken.

"Don't talk about other people's affairs, what are you doing in the fourth brother's house?"

"It's about preparing for the literary competition. I'm bored when you're not at home, so I took advantage of these two days to discuss the details with King Wei, confirm the number of participants, and then start selecting people for the question bank. After the new year, when the weather is a little warmer, we will hold this literary competition. The venue will be held in a teahouse. The competition will be held at the same time as the opening of the competition, and we will take the opportunity to promote our teahouse. My thoughts are more than that. This literary competition is a brick, The tea tasting competition to be held later is the jade I want. At that time, I want to let all the talents and beauties in Chang'an City know about our Juxian Tea House and fall in love with our green tea."

When it comes to making money, Guan Xin's eyes are full of light.Yuzhang found it funny, why does this man love money so much, and they are not short of money. "You asked about Princess Wencheng that day. I asked you about it yesterday, and there was indeed a slight change. Father even praised fourth brother in public, saying that his proposal is very important to the diplomatic relations between the two countries."

"It seems that I have not been a citizen of the Tang Dynasty for nothing, and I have contributed to the people." Guan Xin's smile did not reach his eyes, fearing that Yu Zhang would notice something strange, so he pretended to look down at Tang Jianri.

Yuzhang snorted, and didn't really believe Guan Xin's words. She always felt that she was holding back her thoughts by asking this again and again, but Guan Xin didn't want to say it, so she didn't ask again, and she would know sooner or later. .It's almost time, she stood up and walked around the room to digest food, this was taught by Guan Xin, it's too cold outside, and it gets dark early in winter, so to avoid accidents, just stroll around the house.After walking for a while, he felt sleepy, so Nuan Yi sent Tang Jianri back to rest.

Guan Xin stood up and waited for her to wash and wash, until she lay down, Guan Xin said with a smile, "Your Highness, do you want me to warm your bed?"

"Don't bother Miss." Yuzhang rarely joked along with her.

Guan Xin twitched the corners of his mouth, and tucked the corner of the quilt for Yu Zhang, "Go to sleep, Your Highness, good night." After blowing out the lamp, he went out.

I always feel that Guan Xin is weird tonight. According to Guan Xin's usual aggressiveness towards her, he shouldn't have gone out so easily just now. Before he had time to think about it, Yuzhang was too sleepy, wrapped his quilt tightly, turned over and fell asleep past.

Guan Xin, who left the room, did not go back to her own room, but stood in the yard blowing the cold wind, just standing straight, she wanted to calm herself down, but her cultivation was still not home, thinking that Yuzhang might If she would sleep with Tang Shanshi, she would feel very uncomfortable, but she could not show any dissatisfaction, that would only make Yuzhang difficult, that was not her original intention, she was reluctant to make Yuzhang difficult, and her identity What is it? I know it in my heart, I don't want to admit it and I can't avoid that fact, so why should I ask others?After all, she is not a person of this era, and she doesn't mind at all if she can't do it.

"Sister Xinxin, why are you standing in the yard? It's so cold, come in." Nuan Yi went to see Tang Jianri back and just entered the yard, she was startled when a dark figure stood upright in the yard Here, I took a closer look, and it turned out to be Guan Xin. I couldn't help but wonder, what are you doing standing in the courtyard?Is not It Cold?

"The princess is asleep, I should go back, you go into the house." After finishing speaking, she left without giving Nuan Yi a chance to say more.

The warmth can't help but feel inexplicable, standing in the yard like a wooden stake on a cold day, I don't understand.Open the door and enter the house, and as soon as you enter the house, you see Nuan Xin in the house, so Guan Xin must not have been guarding the yard just because there was no one in the house.

"What's the matter? Look at your absent-mindedness." Nuan Xin laid out the bedding, and when she looked up, she saw Nuan Yi was preoccupied, so she asked in a low voice.

"Oh, it's okay. I'll watch tonight. You go back and get a good sleep. Didn't you sleep last night?" Nuan Yi said as she undressed.

"I know that sister Nuanyi loves Nuanxin, so I'll go back." Nuanxin left with a smile.
