marry a princess

Chapter 278

The fourth prince, Yuan Hongli, was born of Concubine Yi. He was named Prince Yong at the age of 15 and had his own mansion.Pond's is his first wife.King Yong's Mansion is larger than King Ningqing's, but has a smaller population.In addition to Mrs. Pond, there were three side concubines living in the north courtyard, and two concubines living in the cross courtyard.She is not outstanding in appearance, Xiaojia Biyu is delicate and pleasant, and it is heard that one of the concubines is just two months pregnant.

Pond's family is understanding, knowledgeable and reasonable. Yuan Hongli fell in love with her at first sight, and Concubine Yi also loved this daughter-in-law very much.The two have been respecting each other as guests for several years of marriage, enviing others.It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, because the Pond family hadn't had anything to do for several years, Concubine Yi was dissatisfied, so she asked the emperor to order a marriage, and now there are these side concubines and concubines.

There are three types of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is having no descendants.This is the sorrow of ancient women!The royal family is even worse, the mother is more expensive than the child.Although Pang's family didn't have any good men, fortunately they had a daughter, and the Fourth Prince didn't neglect her in the slightest by those side concubines and concubines.

However, what a woman wants is not that her husband is not in the cold, but that her husband is full of love and devotion wholeheartedly.

"I was about to go out to meet you, but I didn't expect you to come in." Pond sat down one by one in the backyard of the main hall.

"Our sister-in-law is just like my own home, so there's no need to welcome her, right, fifth sister-in-law." Princess Anning said with a smile.

"An Ning is right." Looking into the house and the courtyard, Bai Ziwan said, "Qingqing and Ze'er are not in the courtyard."

"The two of you just went to the garden with the maids." Pond turned her head and ordered, "Yuzhu, you go and bring Qingqing and Xiao Ze here, and say that the Fifth Princess is here."

The maid named Yuzhu agreed, bowed to the three of them, and withdrew.

The maids brought tea, snacks and chilled fruits.Pond stuck a piece of peach with a silver fork and handed it to Bai Ziwan, smiling slightly, "I don't have any fresh things like yours in this house, so I'll just eat some." Then he inserted another piece and handed it to Princess Anning.

"Sister-in-law said so, I won't dare to come here again in the future."

"aunt……"

"Auntie..."

Two childish voices came from outside, before Bai Ziwan turned around, two small figures, one pink and one blue, crashed into her arms.

"Auntie, where's my doll? Have you finished the doll yet?" Qing Qing raised her head, blushing and out of breath because she ran so fast just now.

Bai Ziwan took the bag Su Yan handed over and handed it to Qingqing.Qingqing opened it, her eyes sparkled, and then she took out several dolls and placed them on the table, looking at one and touching the other, giggling non-stop.

"This Qingqing recognizes the beautiful sheep, but who are the others?" Four years ago, Bai Ziwan sent her the beautiful sheep, so she recognized them.

Bai Ziwan said, "This one is Lazy, this one is Boiling Goat, this one is Pleasant Goat, this one is Warm Yangyang, they and Mei Yangyang are good friends."

Qingqing blinked her bright and clear eyes, couldn't put it down for the dolls in front of her, frowned, looked at Pond's in distress, and said, "Mother Concubine, which one should I give to Sister Lin?" These dolls are very cute. Looks good, she wants to keep it for herself.

Pond's lovingly patted her daughter's head, and said softly, "You can give it to whomever you want."

"Then... can I not give it? The dolls made by my aunt are so beautiful, I can't bear it." After saying that, she hugged the dolls tightly in her arms.

"To be a man, you have to keep your word. Since you promised to give Sister Lin a doll, you can't go back on your word because you can't bear it."

An indifferent and deep voice came from behind, Qingqing was taken aback, then turned around suddenly, looking at the man in azure clothes who came in from outside, she lowered her head, slowly retreated into Pond's arms, then turned her head, with eyes like her mother's help.

This is Prince Yong, Yuan Hongli, who has the same title as Yongzheng.It has to be said that the Yuan family has good genes, whether it is Yuan Hongyi, Yuan Hongjin, Yuan Hongyu, Yuan Hongjie, they are all beautiful men, and so is the one in front of them.He has bright eyebrows and starry eyes with distinct water chestnut angles, although his complexion is cold, his eyes are warm and moist.

"An Ning met Fourth Brother." Princess An Ning got up and saluted.

"An Ning?" Yuan Hongli was surprised, "Aren't you at the house of the eleventh brother? Why did you come to my side? Does the eleventh brother know?"

"Brother knows." Princess Anning held Bai Ziwan's arm, "I came here with Fifth Sister-in-Law to give Qingqing a baby."

"I have seen Fourth Master."

She is Bai Hongtai's eldest daughter, Bai Yingying?Yuan Hongli looked at Bai Ziwan thoughtfully for a while, then raised his hand and said, "Five brothers and sisters, please get up."

"Why did you come back so early today? Do you want to stay at the mansion for lunch? I'll ask the kitchen to prepare it." Pond stood up and said.

"I left something in the study, let's go." Yuan Hongli went outside, stopped suddenly, turned around and said, "Mother Concubine is ill, tomorrow you take Qingqing to the palace to talk to Mother Concubine."

"Yes, the concubine has written it down, and I will go tomorrow morning."

Yuan Hongli nodded slightly, glanced at Bai Ziwan seemingly inadvertently, looked at Qingqing, and said, "Qingqing, my father hopes that you will be a child who will do what you say."

Qingqing bowed her head, and Nuo Nuo answered yes.

At noon, Mrs. Pond insisted on leaving food, and when Bai Ziwan was about to leave, Mrs. Pond personally sent her and Princess Aning out of the mansion.

After sending Princess Anning back to the entrance of Prince Xiaoyao's Mansion, Xiao Ze lay on the car window, looking outside and talking to himself.Bai Ziwan lazily leaned aside, closed her eyes and rested her mind, but what echoed in her mind was the conversation with Pang Shi after lunch was approaching.

"Have you and Fifth Brother never had a child? When I saw Xiao Ze that day, I thought it was your and Fifth Brother's child."

Bai Ziwan lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea to hide the bitterness in his eyes. When he raised his head, he had returned to normal, and said calmly, "There was a boy who was already formed three years ago, but it's a pity... Maybe it's not because of fate, He left before he could call me a mother."

Pond's was surprised, and held her hand, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say those words to make you unhappy, it's just..."

"What did sister-in-law say? I know how well sister-in-law treats me." Bai Ziwan smiled slightly, "If sister-in-law has something to say, you might as well just say it."

Pond hesitated a little, and said after a long time, "So, I'll just say it. If you and the fifth younger brother are still young, there will always be children. But Tianjia is more expensive than ordinary people. Mothers are more expensive than children these years. I’ve seen it a lot. Take me for example, if God hadn’t mercifully given me a Qingqing, and I was protected by my master, I’m afraid that my fourth concubine would have changed hands long ago.”

"Of course I know what my sister-in-law said, but there are some things I can't force. Forget it, let him go. There are times in fate, and there are always times in fate. Don't force it."

"You can't say that." Pond said, "As a royal daughter-in-law, I have a lot of helplessness. As a concubine, I have to endure even more. I obviously don't want to share my husband with other women, and I have to pretend To be tolerant and magnanimous, to treat other people's children as if they were their own, and to make false claims with other women, if even your own position is taken away by others, wouldn't it be too sad?"

She was right.However, if she could keep a man and keep her position because of her child, she would rather abandon everything and go away.

After all, she is different from them after all.However, she was grateful for Pond's frankness.Bai Ziwan said, "Thank you sister-in-law, I'll make a note."

"Also, you have to be careful of Tang. She is not as low-browed and pleasing as she looks."

Down's?Bai Ziwan's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked in a daze, "Why did my sister-in-law say that?" Could it be that she knew something?
"Concubine Tang and Concubine He married Fifth Brother in the same year, and the other two side concubines were half a year later than them, and there are several concubines. Unfortunately, after all these years, only Concubine Tang gave birth to a daughter." Princess An Ning, who had been silent all this time , said suddenly.

Caiyi, who was waiting in the yard, saw the three of them coming back, hurriedly went up to greet them, and saluted, "Princess, you are finally back."

"What's wrong?" Bai Ziwan glanced at her indifferently, then walked into the house.

"My lord, he..."

"The lord is back?" Bai Ziwan stopped.

Caiyi quickly stepped forward and replied, "Not long after you and Miss Suyan left, the prince came back. He only asked where you had been, but the slave said that you went to the fourth concubine, so she didn't say anything and stayed all morning. In the study, the lunch kitchen delivered food, and it was brought out intact, and said that the prince dropped the inkstone, as if he was very angry."

"What about the sixth prince?"

Caiyi lowered her head and said, "This servant did not see the Sixth Prince."

"Okay, I got it." Bai Ziwan told Su Yan, "Su Yan, take Ze'er back to the room and change clothes, and I'll go to the study."

Seeing the figure going outside, Caiyi grinned, and when she saw Su Yan suddenly looked into her eyes, she quickly restrained herself.

Bai Ziwan stood at the door, and there were laughter from inside from time to time. She smiled slightly, knocked on the door, and pushed it in.

Yuan Hongyi hugged Hanhan in his arms and said something, Hanhan beamed happily.Tang stood on one side, watching her husband and daughter with a smile on her face.

Tang shi was taken aback when she saw Bai Ziwan coming in, then blessed her body and saluted her.He waved to Hanhan again, signaling her to come over and salute.

"Mother concubine."

Bai Ziwan helped Han Han up, and smiled slightly, "Han Han, are you recovering from your illness?" The little girl in front of her was no longer the little girl who acted like a baby when she first met her.

"Thank you for your concern, my daughter is already much better."

"That's good. But you have to be careful when eating in the future, so as not to hurt your body." Bai Ziwan said, "Come to Mother Concubine's room some other day, and Mother Concubine will cook something delicious for you, okay?"

Hanhan glanced at Concubine Tang indiscriminately, nodded, and said hello.

Seeing the look in Yuan Hongyi's eyes, Tang forced a smile and said, "My concubine will leave first." She was blessed and led Hanhan out.

"Why did you come back at this time?"

"Sister-in-law Si left a meal, so she came back late." Bai Ziwan walked over and smiled, "When did you come back?"

"It's a moment."

It seems that after he left from Mixiangju, he came back.

"Come here." Yuan Hongyi waved his hands.Bai Ziwan walked over obediently, and was held in his arms, "Remember to tell me where you are going in the future, so as not to make people wait."

Bai Ziwan pursed her lips and smiled, "You can't leave my concubine like this? I'm no longer a concubine, so you won't be so sad that you can't even eat?"

A look of unnaturalness flashed across his face, Yuan Hongyi let go of his hands slightly, and said in a muffled voice, "I won't have a stomachache because you can't eat."

"Hehe," Bai Ziwan laughed lightly, "How can you have a stomachache if you are so good? Do you want to send an imperial doctor back to take a look?"

Yuan Hongyi was angry.Relying on his doting, this woman really became more and more confident towards him, laughing at him and making fun of him all the time.And he, he loves her so much!No pretense, real, cute.

Bai Ziwan smiled again, and stood up, "I don't think about tea and rice, I am very moved. But in order not to be hated by the master, I will cook the porridge for you myself."

Raising his hand to pull her back into his arms, Yuan Hongyi leaned over and said in a charming voice, "I don't want to drink porridge now, I want to eat you."

Bai Ziwan raised his hand to cover his mouth, looked at the desk, and said casually, "Where is the inkstone I gave you?"

Yuan Hongyi was taken aback, pulled her hand down, and said with shame on his face, "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention just now, and accidentally broke the inkstone."

Bai Ziwan shook his head, "It's fine. If I find a good one another day, I'll give you another piece. However, if you accidentally break it again, I'll be angry."

"Okay." After that, he leaned over to kiss her lips.

"Fifth brother..." The door was pushed open, and seeing the scene inside, Yuan Hongjin was taken aback for a moment, then pulled the little boy beside him and turned his back.

Bai Ziwan pursed her lips and smiled, not at all shy about being bumped into.Pushing someone away, stood up and straightened his clothes.

Yuan Hongyi turned cold, frowned, and shouted at Yuan Hongjin angrily, "Lao Liu, who allows you to come in without knocking!"

Yuan Hongjin's body was visibly shaken, and he quickly said, "Fifth brother, I really didn't mean it. I didn't see anything, so I'll leave now, you guys continue." After finishing speaking, he raised his foot and wanted to leave.

"Lao Liu, wait a minute." Seeing someone's flushed face, Bai Ziwan secretly laughed, "You talk to Lao Liu first, and I'll cook some porridge for you." Seeing Yuan Hongjin in his arms The little boy couldn't help but ask, "Where did the little boy come from?"

"I just met outside."

Bai Ziwan patted the little boy's head, and said to Yuan Hongjin, "I'll cook some lotus seed and lily porridge, would you like to eat some together?"

Yuan Hongjin was about to say yes with a smile, when he noticed a pair of cold eyes shooting over, he quickly said seriously, "Then I'll have to thank you, sister-in-law."

When Bai Ziwan went out, Yuan Hongjin closed the door, met Shangyuan Hongyi's eyes, couldn't help but secretly swallowed his saliva, and went over and said, "Fifth Brother, I really didn't mean it just now." The study can't help it.

"What are you doing in my study at this time? But what's the matter?" Lao Liu knows his rules. After years of experience, he is no longer the impulsive and reckless boy he used to be. "Who is he?" He pointed to the little boy in front of him and asked.

Seeing that Yuan Hongyi's complexion was not as ugly as before, Yuan Hongjin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "When I came back, I saw him sitting in front of the mansion. I asked him what he was doing here, and he said he had something for you. Originally, I I wanted him to give it to me, but he refused to say anything, and insisted on giving it to you personally, so I brought him back."

The little boy walked to the desk, climbed on the edge of the desk, looked at him, "Are you Yuan Hongyi?"

The little boy in front of him looked like seven or eight years old, without the slightest fear or fear in his eyes, calm and calm.Yuan Hongyi said, "I am Yuan Hongyi."

"Someone asked me to give you this letter." The little boy took out a letter from his clothes and handed it over.

Yuan Hongyi took it and opened it for a look, then closed it, looked at the little boy and said, "Who told you to send this letter?"

The little boy said, "I don't know him. He just asked me to deliver the letter to you, saying that if you get the letter, you will give me money and delicious food."

"Brother Six, what did you write in the letter?"

"See for yourself."

Yuan Hongjin took the letter and looked at it, his face changed slightly, "This... fifth brother, who do you think sent this letter? Is the content of the letter believable?"

"When will you give me money and delicious food? My grandpa is still waiting for me to go back!" The little boy became impatient.

Yuan Hongyi took the letter and put it in his clothes, and said to the little boy, "Let's go, I'll get you money and delicious food."

On the other side, Bai Ziwan was standing in front of the stove cooking porridge, and Su Yan was standing beside him, looking up at the colorful clothes in the yard from time to time.

"What's wrong with you?"

Su Yan came back to his senses, shook his head, saw the three people coming this way, and hurriedly said, "The fifth and sixth princes are here. Who is that little boy?"

Bai Ziwan stretched out his head to take a look, "Su Yan, watch the pot for me, I'll go out and see what's going on." He put down the spoon and went outside.

"Why did you come here?"

"Is there any dessert left?"

dessert?Bai Ziwan said, "I went out early this morning and didn't make any snacks. You and Lao Liu go to the house and wait, the porridge will be ready soon."

Yuan Hongyi leaned over and said, "Are you in a hurry to go back? If you are not in a hurry, follow me to the house and wait a while, and I will order the servants to let the kitchen do it."

"Grandpa is still at home waiting for me to go back, just give me the money." The little boy opened his dirty hands and said.

Bai Ziwan already understood a little bit, she knelt down, took the little boy's hand and said, "Sister made delicious porridge, you go to the house and wait, and bring some back to grandpa later. Ze'er, take this Brother go to aunt's house to play for a while, okay?"

Xiao Ze agreed loudly, and came over to pull the little boy, "Brother, I will take you to aunt's house, aunt's house is really beautiful."

Seeing that Xiao Ze didn't care at all, and pulled his dirty hand, the little boy's awkwardness disappeared immediately, he nodded, and followed Xiao Ze into the house.

About a quarter of an hour later, Bai Ziwan filled two bowls of porridge and put them in a food box, then took out a silver note of ten taels and handed it to the little boy, saying, "Xiao Jian, my sister has no time to make snacks today, you can eat it some other day." If you want some snacks, come to me, okay?"

The little boy looked down at himself, then raised his head and said, "They won't ask me to come in."

"It's okay, my sister will tell them after a while, if you come to me in the future, they won't let you in." Bai Ziwan told Su Yan, "Su Yan, take him back and tell them by the way, later Xiaojian is not allowed to stop me when he comes looking for me."

"Yes, Miss." Su Yan pulled Xiao Jian, "Let's go, I'll take you home."

"I'll send my brother off with Aunt Yan."

When they went out, Bai Ziwan closed the door and looked at the two of them, "Tell me, you two, what happened just now?"
