The prince does not fight for the heir

Chapter 80
In Yanning Palace, Concubine Xie began to take off her make-up and take a bath, preparing to rest.

Mother Zhao waited on her to dry her body and change her inner clothes, her eyes were full of joy: "The birthday gift presented by the empress today, the empress dowager is really happy to see it. After the palace banquet, immediately set up a game to try it out. After playing for a while, I saw I can't leave, if it wasn't for the empress empress' persuasion, I'm afraid I still don't want to let everyone go back to the palace by now!"

Concubine Xie laughed twice: "Not to mention the empress dowager, even I like it very much, thanks to that kid from the Fu family who has such a thoughtful mind, I somehow came up with the idea of ​​changing the leaf plate into a small square shape for him, and want to There are so many interesting new rules, after learning it! I always want to play a few rounds."

Zhao Nanny gossiped again: "I just heard that this little Marquis Fu likes to listen to music, watch people dance, and also likes to visit the animal garden. No matter how you look at it, he likes to play."

"I think it's pretty good!" Concubine Xie laughed and said, "From ancient times to the present, the more promising princes are more likely to be involved in battles, and the princes who indulge in pleasure are mostly able to be happy princes. I'm not afraid Zuo'er is not promising, so I am afraid that he is too promising, with this kid from the Fu family by my side, teaching him how to have fun, and living a safe and happy life, then I can feel at ease for the rest of my life."

Zhao Momo shook her head: "Your Majesty, don't be careless. These days, His Majesty has become interested in His Highness for some reason. The two descendants above are probably already thinking differently about His Highness."

"Your Majesty has not concealed his admiration for Zuo'er. He granted the title of General King early on, but at the same time, it is equivalent to picking him out of the vortex of the battle. Before becoming a crown prince, Zuo'er should be safe." Concubine Xie said with a light smile , but the fleeting worry seems to have passed through his eyes.

Zhao Nanny smiled happily: "It can be seen that His Highness is a blessed person blessed by heaven!"

Concubine Xie felt happy physically and mentally when she was told by Zhao Mama, a smile appeared on her lips, she thought about it: "In a few days, the Empress Dowager may have to return to the Summer Resort, and we will have to set up a mahjong game by ourselves Yes, um, call my mother and sister-in-law, and then invite Mrs. Fu, the number is just right."

Mother Zhao couldn't help asking: "Then, do you want Madam Fu to bring her two girls?"

Concubine Xie pondered: "Forget about the eldest daughter of the Fu family. She is about to come of age at the age of 15. It is time to go to see her. It is easy to gossip when going in and out of the palace. But the daughter of the concubine is still young, so she can be brought in to see her."

Zhao Nanny nodded: "Your Majesty has the right idea."

Concubine Xie recalled the Fu Xuechen she met today, and said rather amusedly: "Zuo'er once told me how good-looking the Fu family's kid is, and seeing the twin sister of the Fu family today, I don't think she is really a beauty. , Yuxue is indeed cute, it seems that what Zuoer said is true!"

Zhao Nanny then joked: "If the empress likes it, why not wait for someone to grow up in the future and recruit this daughter-in-law of the Fu family to be His Highness's daughter-in-law?"

Concubine Xie smiled: "They're still young! Look again, don't worry."

In the Jingbei Hou Mansion, when the Fu family's female relatives returned, a group of servants were already waiting at the door.

Mrs. Fu was getting old, and she only told her daughter-in-law and granddaughter to "rest early", and was supported by the maid beside her, and went back to her yard to rest.

Only Fu Xuechen handed the little milk cat to Furong, and he followed Xie Shi back to the main courtyard. On the surface, he had something to say, but in fact he was going to change his identity with Fu Yuchen.

When Mrs. Xie returned to the main courtyard, she didn't see Marquis Fu Chuanyi of Jingbei. She thought her husband was greedy for the wine outside and hadn't come back, so his face turned dark. Unexpectedly, his servant came to report that Fu Chuanyi had returned, but he had drunk too much wine. Afraid of fuming people, he slipped to the study to rest by himself.

Only then did Mrs. Xie look relieved, and thoughtfully asked his servants to light two pots of charcoal fire over there in the study, and also asked someone to send an extra quilt over there, and asked someone to cook hangover soup and keep it warm on the stove, so that it can be taken at any time at night use.

Fu Xuechen waited leisurely at the side, looking very funny, but also a little envious. Apart from Fu Chuanyi's personal servant girl who had served him since childhood and saved his life as his aunt, there was only Xie's wife who was the main housewife. From the perspective of this time and space, he is definitely a first-class, dedicated and good man.

After dealing with a bunch of trivial matters, Mrs. Xie was free just now, and was about to call someone to call Fu Yuchen, so that the siblings could exchange identities again after a while.

"What's the matter so late?" Xie was surprised, so he had to let people in first.

"Sister! It's the servant who interrupted!" Aunt Wu came in and apologized first.

"It's okay, my sister sits first." Xie waved his hands, and while serving tea, he asked: "I wonder why my sister is in a hurry here?"

Aunt Wu looked ashamed and said: "There is no urgent matter, just thinking, the two days of Shengshou Festival is a good day for all people to celebrate together, it is very lively outside, and the Yuanjue Temple on Yunwei Mountain in the west of Beijing is rarely open , the servant wants to take this opportunity to take Rushuang girl to go there tomorrow morning, to put incense in front of the Buddha, and ask for a marriage lottery."

Mrs. Xie was stunned: "So that's it! Yuanjue Temple has always been famous for its healing powers. It's rare that the Shengshou Festival is open. It's really not to be missed! It's just that there are three days in the Shengshou Festival, and my sister will go early tomorrow morning. Is it too late?" ?”

Aunt Wu shook her head and said: "It's not too early! It's not too early at all. I heard from the maid who bought it. As soon as the gate of Yuanjue Temple opened, there were a lot of tourists. Countless faithful men and women lined up waiting to enter. Today's palace For the banquet, the nobles may not go out tomorrow, and if they wait until the day after tomorrow, those who have no status may not be able to go in!"

"It makes sense!" Mrs. Xie understood: "Yes! I will ask the housekeeper to arrange cars for you tomorrow."

Aunt Wu was delighted: "Thank you, sister!"

Xie smiled and said: "You are welcome! You are doing this for Rushuang. As a aunt, I should make some arrangements. Xuechen is still young. No matter how old she is, I will worry about it like you .”

Fu Xuechen heard that my sister-in-law was going to climb the mountain with my aunt to worship Buddha and ask for a lottery, so my heart moved, and I quickly tugged on Xie's sleeve: "Mother! I want to go too!"

Mrs. Xie couldn't laugh or cry: "Your aunt and sister are here to ask for a marriage contract, what are you going to do?"

"That sounds very interesting, I want to see it too!" Fu Xuechen shook Xie's arm.

Xie rolled her eyes: "You are such a wild girl, you only want to go out to play every day, and don't do serious things at all!"

Fu Xuechen was dissatisfied: "It's not the right time for Muxiu these few days! How can there be business to do?"

"All right, all right! Let's go then! I'll go for my mother, all of you!" Mrs. Xie thought about it, so she decided to take her daughter with her. After all, she was Rushuang's aunt, and she would come forward to ask for a lottery for Rushuang. , more justifiably.

It was originally a small outing for my aunt and sister-in-law, but it suddenly turned into a four-person trip. Fu Xuechen was happy, but Aunt Wu was also happy, and she even said that there were so many people, so happy.

Since it was decided that Fu Xuechen, who was a woman, would go out tomorrow, the time for the brother-sister identity exchange will be postponed for another day, so there is no need to call Fu Yuchen here. Mrs. Xie asked Aunt Xu to deliver a supper to Fu Yuchen, and by the way tell He didn't need to come over, and sent Fu Xuechen back to his room to rest early, and he had nothing to say all night.
