The World of Peace in the Red Mansion

There are strict rules in the palace, although the two of them can walk in the palace, they still have to be careful, deliberately bypassing those roads that may bump into people, and the two of them went straight into the Longevity Palace.

Unfortunately, when the two came, the Empress Dowager was paying respects to the Buddha in the Buddhist hall, and the servants led them into the side hall to wait.

The maids in the Longevity Palace are all old people, and they are very familiar with Cheng Xiao who grew up in the palace, so they quickly serve refreshments according to their tastes.

Zhongshun still didn't have a good job at the moment, he picked up a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth, "Come to my theater tomorrow, I just got a good singing voice."

"No, I don't like this." Cheng Xiao refused coldly.

Zhongshun sneered, "What do you love? I said Cheng Xiao, you are boring all day long. No one in Beijing is like you. Don't say that brother doesn't love you, I'm here to teach you a lot."

With that being said, Cheng Xiao cast a contemptuous glance at Zhongshun, and didn't bother to talk to him, anyway, this person is not a decent person, but if people really underestimate him, they will probably die in a terrible way.

Just when Zhongshun was still thinking about how to plot against Cheng Xiao, an elderly nun led two maids in.

Zhongshun and Cheng Xiao hurriedly got up to greet them, "Hi, Madam Liu."

Grandma Liu quickly greeted the two of them, not daring to accept their greetings.After the second time, he said kindly to Cheng Xiao: "The son has not come for a while, and the empress is still talking about it!"

Cheng Xiao hurriedly said: "It's my fault, Madam Lao is thinking about it."

Grandma Liu smiled and said: "Your Majesty is busy, but you should take care of your body, I've lost weight."

Cheng Xiao is a little helpless, it's true that she's lost weight, she's grown taller, but Mammy Liu is an old man next to the Empress Dowager, and she's been in an unusual relationship since she was in the boudoir, and she's watched him grow up, yes The elder really couldn't say anything, so he could only smile and agree, "Mammy is right, maybe she has grown taller and looked thinner."

Zhongshun kept silent since Grandma Liu came in. Although he said he had a noble status, he taught her most beloved natal nephew to be spoiled in front of the emperor's grandmother's cronies. Don't think about it, even if the father came forward, he would not be able to eat well.

However, except for saying hello to him at the beginning, Nanny Liu kept talking around Cheng Xiao, so it was clear how close he was.Zhongshun wasn't annoyed, anyway, it wasn't the first time.

"Why didn't I see Nanny Zhang? It's been a long time since I ate the snacks she made, but I miss them a little." After being nagged, Cheng Xiao changed the subject wisely.

Grandma Liu said with a smile: "I'm afraid the son won't be able to eat in the future."

"This is strange. Could it be that Nanny Zhang is not in the palace?" Nanny Zhang is also an old man in the palace. She used to work with Nanny Liu. I lived in the Longevity Palace for a few years, and was under the care of Nanny Zhang. He is a person with clear grievances and grievances, and he always remembers how to treat him well.

"Indeed, a few days ago she and Nanny Liu received the Queen's order and went out of the palace." Madam Liu didn't say where to go, but since they received the Queen's order, they should have gone to the honorable family.But how did the empress manage to move the Longevity Palace? It should be Zhang Momo who wanted to leave the palace herself.Cheng Xiao figured it out with just one thought. There are strict rules in this palace. Although a nun like them can still move now, she might get sick anytime soon. No one cares about life and death, but it is better to go out of the palace while still young and find a place to retire than at that time.

Thinking like this, Cheng Xiao secretly said: Next time, I will make a decision on which house Mammy Zhang will go to, and I can help if necessary.

This topic naturally stopped, and Grandma Liu asked someone to serve some teas and said with a smile: "This is what Grandma Chen did, and I learned the method from Grandma Liu. It will be okay if you try it."

Naturally, Cheng Xiao didn't refuse, and tasted it and found it tasted the same.

It didn't take long for the Empress Dowager to come out, Nanny Liu hurried forward to help her, and Cheng Xiao and Zhongshun stepped forward to pay her respects.

The empress dowager is full of kindness, she has lived in seclusion in the harem for many years, the most honorable woman in this dynasty.The empress dowager can no longer see the killing and decisiveness of the past, but no one dares to underestimate her.

There was also a smile on his face towards his grandson and nephew, "Okay, okay, sit down!"

The two returned to their seats and sat down again.

"Silang hasn't come for quite a while, the Ai family must have forgotten me as an old woman!" The Empress Dowager said pretending to be annoyed.

Cheng Xiao hurriedly said: "This is wronged. My grandson didn't even have time to think about it. It's just that he wasn't in Beijing before, so he came to pay his respects to his aunt soon after returning to Beijing." It's for the beloved junior.

Hearing this, he only smiled and said, "I knew I didn't hurt Shiro in vain. I heard that you went to your grandfather's house."

"Last month was my grandfather's [-]th birthday, so I went to pay my respects." Cheng Xiao had a normal attitude. He was not close to his grandfather's family. Beijing.

"The good daughter the Su family has taught, I don't care if I have to say it." The Empress Dowager's faint words revealed her dissatisfaction with the Su family.Cheng Xiao would not pick up the words. There was nothing wrong with the Su family. The empress dowager was dissatisfied with his mother, who left her young son to go with her husband. The empress dowager felt sorry for the children who grew up in front of her, so she naturally had a grudge.

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager did not continue to speak deeply, but turned to Zhongshun and said: "It's rare for Xiao Liu to come to Ai's family."

Zhongshun hurriedly laughed and said: "The emperor's grandmother said that the grandson will die, isn't the grandson afraid of disturbing the emperor's grandmother's peace?"

"Really? I'm not afraid that Ai's family will ask about those things in your house." The Empress Dowager narrowed her eyes slightly, showing dissatisfaction.

Zhongshun lowered his head, "The grandson's fault made the emperor's grandmother worry.

"The Ai family has really gained insight. I have never heard of a princess who became a monk. Xiaoliu, you have opened the eyes of the Ai family. The Ai family is old, and this junior has no energy to take care of things. It's just this. You will lose the face of the royal family, don't stand here at Ai's house, if you really know that you are wrong, go back and treat your princess well now, there is nothing wrong with her marrying you, and you should just mess around There is a limit." The Empress Dowager's words hit Zhongshun a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Cheng Xiao hurriedly stood up and said: "The Empress Dowager, please calm down, don't get angry because of this, Lord Shun knows his mistake, doesn't he dare to come to pay his respects after finishing the matter?" Said and returned to Zhongshun Wink.

Zhongshun understood and hurriedly followed these words to dispel the anger of the Empress Dowager, who is the Empress Dowager, how could Cheng Xiao not understand what the Empress Dowager meant, even this time the top ten was also what Cheng Xiao meant, if he followed Zhongshun, he would probably always Do not dare to come.

Looking at Cheng Xiao's face, the Empress Dowager was too lazy to talk about loyalty and obedience. She had long since ignored the affairs of the younger generation, and she would not have bothered if it hadn't hurt the royal family's face this time.

It's just that he couldn't see Zhongshun in the end, so he knocked a few words and asked him to pay his respects to the emperor.

After Zhongshun left, the Empress Dowager calmed down a lot. Cheng Xiao personally brought tea to comfort her and said, "My aunt knows why Prince Shun has such a temper. If she gets angry, she will make her grandchildren worry."

"You help him even if you are a ghost. This kid is spoiled by you people. He is so old and still looks like a man. Fortunately, you didn't learn from him." The Empress Dowager was very satisfied with Cheng Xiao. It is the warmth of grandmother.

Cheng Xiao said with a smile: "No major incidents have been caused, so it's the best." As a prince, he can't ascend the throne, so it's a blessing to play around in the world like this.

The meaning of this was clear but the two of them didn't go into details, but the Empress Dowager suddenly said: "Why do you pay attention to your marriage and don't tell grandma?"

Cheng Xiao paused after hearing the words and said: "I'm afraid grandson's marriage will be later, Master Fan said..."

"It's done, don't use that to scare the Ai family." Hearing this, Cheng Xiao could only be honest, "My aunt and grandson have no intention of getting married now."

Looking at the young man in front of him with sharp eyes, the empress dowager's face was a little solemn, and the servants in the palace did not dare to make a sound, and even Nanny Liu just looked at Cheng Xiao worriedly.

But Cheng Xiao just lifted up the hem of his clothes and knelt down, full of determination. After a long time, the Empress Dowager just sighed and said, "Forget it, you make up your own mind about your own affairs, and grandma can't take care of her when she is old."

"Grandmother, grandson doesn't mean that." Cheng Xiao was a little anxious.

"Okay, your temper is like your father's. You have a plan, so my aunt can rest assured."

Cheng Xiao could only keep silent. In fact, the reason why he didn't want to get married was because of the Empress Dowager. There were several princesses of the right age in the palace. According to the rules of the dynasty, if you marry a princess, you cannot become an official. However, it is not what he wants to have the false title of captain-in-law.

Within Jia's mansion, even though the four of them teamed up as a steward, even though they couldn't compare to Wang Xifeng, it was better because there were more people, but all the trivial matters were settled. In my previous life, the masters of the two upper floors had already understood the meaning of the shrewdness. Originally, seeing that Miss Lin received a reward from the palace and brought silver taels into the mansion, she assumed that she would secure the position of Second Grandma Bao in the future. But I didn't expect that when the wind changed and it turned out to be Miss Xue's housekeeper, the villain would naturally flatter the other side, which is fine, but I didn't expect that these people would act slowly.

Bai He ruthlessly threw out the food box from the kitchen, and said angrily to the old lady, "You guys don't see the law in your eyes, so it's reasonable to send something like this over here."

The dissatisfaction on the woman's face not only did not reflect on it, but said: "This is a waste of things, what's wrong with this food, I said girl, don't make trouble, who doesn't use it like this, Second Master Bao and Miss Xue both I didn't say anything, they are all living here, but your girl is very expensive."
