♂?,,
Zhu Yichen in the house was a bit anxious, could it be over like this? Ke'er arranged for them to say a few words and then leave, what's the use of that?
He stood up and watched as the girl followed the maid away, then turned around and entered the house, smiling and saying: "This Miss Li also came to celebrate the coronation of Fourth Brother and Fifth Brother, it's quite interesting."
The young master paused for a moment before saying, "No, she's the close friend of my cousin's wife. After returning to her maternal home with her mother during Chinese New Year, she came over to play for a few days."
"Oh, I see." Zhu Yichen suddenly realized.
The crown prince looked out the window with some concern, today's matter... somehow felt that Miss Li was too rash...
Just as I was worrying, a loud noise came from the garden gate, and upon closer listening, it seemed to be coming from the direction where Li Lankun had left.
The crown prince hastily leaned in to listen carefully, his eyes fixed on the open window.
It was indeed the commotion coming from the direction Li Lanjun had gone, mixed with men's laughter and the anxious cries of the maidservants. Even if the young master was normally composed, he couldn't help but become flustered and lose his composure. Without even calling for someone to see what was going on, he immediately stood up and walked out the door.
Zhu Yi Chen also came out to take a look, it turned out that the men who were drinking with Zhu Yi Zuo finally knew that the prince was on this side, a group of people hurried over, walking to the garden gate, but bumped into Li Lan Jun who was just coming out, some dodged, and some who had drunk too much wine covered their faces, wanting to come up and flirt for a couple of sentences.
Zhu Yuhuan silently watched from behind, he had already seen the two people walking out of the house in the garden, seeing Zhu Yuchen's calm expression, it didn't seem like anything unexpected had happened. Could this be Ke'er's plan? Anyway, seeing that it wasn't Ke'er who appeared, he let out a sigh of relief.
Li Lanjun suddenly bumped into a group of men, who were staggering and almost fell over while walking. She was so frightened that she nearly fainted on the spot, let out a scream, covered her face with her hands, and hastily retreated. The leading maid quickly stepped forward to block the way in front of her, while her two maids supported her and hurriedly retreated to find a place to hide.
"Whose miss is this? Fifth brother, when did you invite such a beautiful young lady to celebrate?" Zhu Yiping was really a bit drunk, with a thick tongue and blurry eyes looking at the flustered little beauty.
Zhu Yuhuan smiled wryly: "Sixth brother, don't talk nonsense, I don't know him."
"But where did that come from? Looking at some close friends in the boudoir who don't seem like older sisters."
"Has elder sister's close friend in her boudoir been seen?"
"Haha, I've seen them all before..."
Li Lankun heard what they said, and was both angry and ashamed and frightened, her whole body trembling violently, her two legs going soft and almost falling to the ground, tears already streaming down.
Two maids supported her with all their might, and the maid in front hastily said: "This is Miss Li of the Li family..."
In the crowd, Zhu Yingtuo coldly watched this girl appear very suspiciously. He had already seen the young master who came out of the house over there, walking so hastily, with an anxious expression on his face. It was rare for him to see the young master lose his composure like that. A faint smile appeared in Zhu Yingtuo's eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up - this could be considered catching someone red-handed?
When he saw Zhu Yuchen following the Crown Prince out, Zhu Yuchen's eyes turned cold again, with a somewhat uncertain glint.
"Don't be rude, make way immediately" The third brother, Zhu Yueti, standing under the eaves of the house, didn't even look at him and quickly walked down the steps to come to his side.
His cold shout immediately silenced the crowd, and even if they were drunk, no one dared to be presumptuous in front of the young master. At this point, no one dared to pretend to be crazy anymore, and everyone made way for him.
Three maidservants supported Li Lankun who couldn't move a single step and hastily walked away.
The young master gave Zhu Yiping a cold glance, and Zhu Yiping was so scared that he shrunk his neck. The young master didn't dare to scold him either, after all, it was Li Lankun who had brought this upon himself. He was annoyed in his heart, but on his face, he wore a calm smile: "I'm having barbecue with my second cousin here, who else can still eat?"
Everyone immediately echoed in agreement, and Zhu Yujie also chimed in with a smile: "Drinking wine and eating meat, this is the best combination."
Zhu Yi Huan jumped up the steps, laughing and asked Zhu Yi Chen who was standing under the eaves: "Are they the yellow sheep and roe deer we buried last time it snowed?"
Zhu Yichan smiled and nodded: "Yes."
The crown prince also laughed and said: "Originally, it was just right for us two to eat, but now that this group of hungry wolves has come, there really isn't enough."
"Our kitchen has wild boar meat, it's also delicious when roasted"
"What kind of wild boar is this, raised on a farm, it's already lost its wild flavor"
Everyone came in and said, but a round table couldn't sit down, so they changed tables. The young master still sat at the top, and the rest of the people sat down on both sides, with a small table in front of each person.
Today, because it was the coronation ceremony of Fourth Master and Fifth Master, they sat on either side of the young master, while the others took their seats according to age.
Zhu Yingtuo whispered to the servant, go to the kitchen and bring all that can be roasted, regardless of what it is, wild chicken, wild rabbit, wild boar, etc. are all okay.
With him around, the crown prince didn't have to worry, and smiled as he listened to Zhu Yiping talk about his flirtation with the maid.
Zhu Yichan glanced at the Crown Prince, although he was smiling on his face, but in his heart, he knew that the Crown Prince must be anxious now. However, things had already happened and there was no way to make up for it. It's likely that by tomorrow, the news would spread far and wide. If the Crown Prince really had a mind to, he would definitely show up, and when the time came, the Crown Princess's backyard would be on fire, where would she have the time to deal with Ke'er?
He smiled and glanced at Zhu Yuhuan beside him, raising his cup: "Come on, let's have a drink together."
Zhu Yuhuan exchanged a knowing glance with him, smiled and raised his cup to clink with his, then drank.
"Brother Five, when are we going hunting again? Can't you take me along?" said the younger Seventh Brother.
Zhu Yuhuan said: "It's okay to wear it, but the homework that the king often checks is always not passing, and in the end, I will be scolded along with him."
The seventh brother's face turned red with embarrassment, and he scratched his head without saying a word.
Zhu Yiping also suggested that drinking without any rules was meaningless, why not play a drinking game instead? Everyone naturally agreed and they set out the rules before starting to play.
……
The princess served the county king's wife and lay down, then came out of the upper house, returned to her own courtyard to rest for a while, changed her clothes, and in the evening there was another dinner party, with more guests on the county king's side than at noon.
As she entered the house, her personal maid had already prepared the clothes for the afternoon. These were all newly made a while ago, with chrysanthemum-patterned trim on the long jacket, silver-red background with eight clusters of emerald yellow chrysanthemum embroidery, wide white satin edges around the body, and a flower belt at the waist. The long skirt trailed on the ground. The colors of her clothes were bright and beautiful, complementing her complexion like a lotus flower, and her figure was slender and charming.
The crown prince's consort changed her clothes and stood in front of the mirror, turning around to admire herself. She was very satisfied and, seeing that it wasn't early anymore, went out again.
As I walked up to the house through the garden, I saw a woman walking in front of me, surrounded by flowers. She was wearing a sky-blue jacket with gold buttons and silver mouse-fur trim, under which a fresh green satin fox-fur collar could be seen, and around her waist was tied a long sash with a butterfly knot and five-colored tassels, a brown velvet skirt, and over it she wore a cloak with moon-shaped white silver fox fur and dark blue feathers.
The crown prince's consort took one look at the man's attire and was extremely annoyed in her heart. When the woman turned around the corner, it was indeed someone from Zhu Ye's side, but it wasn't the usual rich and imposing aunt, rather a maidservant who usually followed the third brother, named Guiyue.
The crown prince's consort turned around and asked the big maid beside her: "What's going on?"
That big servant girl named Cai Xia, had already seen Gui Yue and knew she was going to get angry, so she hastily lowered her head and said: "Third Master sold his aunt, Wan Chun, the day before yesterday."
"Sold? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
"Yesterday was busy arranging today's affairs, the person who came to talk outside waited until evening to report back to me, at that time you had already gone to sleep, I thought it wasn't anything important, so didn't respond, and today being busy again, forgot."
"Can't even lift this little hoof?"
"Reporting back to the Crown Prince's consort, no one was taken away, but another maid was added."
The princess consort was annoyed: "Since there's no one to lift, this little hoof dares to dress up like this? The third house is surrounded by a group of scoundrels." She felt that the clothes on her body were particularly out of place. This set on herself wasn't even as good as what one of Third Master's concubines wore.
She turned back in a huff, Cai Xia had expected this and hastily jogged after her to persuade: "Princess, please be patient. You know that Third Master has ill intentions, why bother with them?"
The crown prince's consort stood up in anger, turned around and glared at her. "Hmph!" she said angrily: "I, the crown prince's consort, am not even as well-dressed as a maid by the third master's side. Is this what it means to bring honor to the crown prince? You good-for-nothing thing, just take a look at what good clothes are!"
Cai Xia was so scared that she didn't dare to speak anymore, and could only follow him back. The Crown Prince's consort was still somewhat sensible in other matters, but when it came to this matter, she wouldn't yield an inch, not even to a maid or servant girl.
Besides, when Caiyun was around, she knew how to advise the Crown Prince's consort to restrain herself a bit. Since Caiyun left for Third Young Mistress' side, no matter what she said, the Crown Prince's consort wouldn't listen, and Caixia really had no way to deal with it.
After a while, the crown prince's wife had her hair styled high, with golden phoenix hairpins on either side of her bun, and a glittering gold hairpin adorned with tiny diamonds hanging from her forehead. Two silver-decorated pearl flowers complemented her raven-black hair, which shone brightly in the light. Her face was as round and full as the moon. She wore a bright red silk jacket with a lake-blue cloud-patterned cape draped over her shoulders, and a bright red gemstone sparkled at her throat. A pale yellow jade-colored skirt flowed from her waist, and a bright red five-color sash was tied around it, adorned with a turquoise nine-dragon pendant and a white jade ring. With a satisfied expression, she walked out of the courtyard, her footsteps calm and confident, her demeanor much more relaxed than before.
The colored clouds closely followed her, and behind the colored clouds were four maidservants and two housekeepers. The group of people went to the upper room where the county princess was. At this time, the county princess should have woken up, and the young son's wife had to attend to the county princess getting up and washing.
It is by.
