When An Xiyue came out with the old lady, she caught a glimpse of the man who was sitting on the throne, shining like an immortal, and her heart suddenly sank. She always felt that Nangong Yuanyi's eyes could penetrate everything, and he just Follow her like a ghost.
Then, An Xiyue quickly lowered her head and stayed by the old lady's side in an obedient and sensible manner.
When the sons of the An family saw the old lady coming, they quickly stood up. An Yuxiao helped the old lady sit upright on the cushion and said, "Mother, this is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Prince Yu."
Although the old lady usually eats fast and chants Buddha's name without paying attention to worldly affairs, she is still wondering why the prince of Prince Yu's palace suddenly came to visit. Isn't it because someone from the eldest princess's palace is coming? But his face was calm and he stood up to salute and say: "His Royal Highness, I hope you will forgive me for being late."
Nangong Yuanyi flashed a pair of eyes as bright as the Milky Way. His voice was cold and he said calmly: "Old madam, you don't have to be polite."
As Nangong Yuanyi spoke, he turned his attention to An Xiyue. He saw the woman wearing a light green dress, hiding quietly behind the old lady, her eyes fixed on the ground, as if she was isolated from the world, and she couldn't guess. It was obvious what she was thinking, she was obviously a cunning wolf, but she pretended to be a little white rabbit.
Zhou Qing, the steward of the Duke Protector's Palace, came forward respectfully: "I am Zhou Qing, the steward of the Duke Protector's Palace. I have sent a thank you gift to Miss An on the order of the eldest princess."
Immediately afterwards, five or six dignified and beautiful maids walked in together. They were uniformly decorated and looked extraordinary. At first glance, they were all people who had been trained by the aunts in the palace and were dedicated to serving the princess. If it were not the royal family, there would be no such thing. Majestic.
In an instant, the maids all opened the gift boxes in their hands one by one, and the gifts appeared in front of everyone. Everyone was amazed. There were exquisite and luxurious cloths, jewelry full of gold and jade, and two thousand taels of gold. This was a quite generous thank you gift.
Zhou Qing took out another luxurious brocade box and saw an exquisite mutton-fat jade hairpin inside. He handed it to An Xiyue with his own hands and said slowly: "The eldest princess ordered the villain to bring a message to An Xiyue." Miss, that promise still counts, I hope the eldest daughter will keep it in mind." If the eldest princess can make a promise in person, Sister An has met a noble person.
An Xiyue was not pretentious, her expression was calm and majestic, she took the jade hairpin without being humble or arrogant, and touched it carefully with her slender jade hands. She saw that there were two exquisite characters "Zhihui" carved on the jade body, and the head of the hairpin was inlaid with an extraordinary and precious stone. Pearl, An Xiyue knew that this was the eldest princess's name, which represented her status.
An Xiyue lived in the palace for so many years in her previous life, so this jade hairpin must have come from the palace.
The eldest princess is the beloved daughter of the Queen Mother and has infinite honor. She must take good care of it. If she accidentally loses it, she will be guilty of a great crime.
An Xiyue took it and gave her a gift as a sign of respect to the eldest princess: "My dear, thank you, Your Highness, for your love."
The third lady came with her two daughters, and when she saw such a scene, she felt sad in her heart. An Xiyue had really had a good fortune recently, and the jade hairpin was priceless.
Over the years, she has been gentle and demure, and she has taken two concubines for her husband. Even the old lady praised her for her generosity towards others, but generosity is of no use. What kind of family her daughter will marry in the future will all depend on the power of her mother's family.
This time I'm afraid that the eldest lady has gained the respect of the eldest princess. In the future, when the eldest lady gets married, she won't have to worry about marrying into a good family.
The third lady glanced at her two daughters. They were both not much younger than An Xiyue. Why couldn't they seize the opportunity? This time, the old lady originally wanted to ask her to go, but she didn't expect the eldest sister-in-law to regain the power of the housekeeper. , she fought with the second room to the death, but to her surprise, the eldest room took advantage of her.
When the old lady saw that An Xiyue was so calm, generous, and had an unworldly temperament, which was calm and collected, her heart felt like honey. She didn't expect that An's family background was not noble, but he could raise such a lady, and smiled. Said: "The eldest princess is too polite. Yue'er didn't do much. It's all because of the great blessings of the eldest lady and the blessing of the Bodhisattva."
The old lady had no idea how much trouble everything that happened in the eldest princess's mansion could cause, she just felt that this thank you gift was too heavy.
Nangong Yuanyi thought to himself: "An Xiyue saved the two little golden grandchildren of the Duke's Mansion in succession. This small thank you gift is not a big deal. In his opinion, it is a bit stingy."
When he returned yesterday, Yuan Bao told him that An Xiyue wanted to save the eldest lady, so he straightened out the stakes.
The eldest daughter-in-law of the eldest princess, Shang Daiyin, is the legitimate daughter of Duke Wei. Duke Wei also has military power. Although the eldest princess covered up how the eldest lady gave birth yesterday, she could not escape his dark network. As long as he checked it , we knew that this was a conspiracy, but the leader did not dare to harm Shang Daiyin's life. It was still possible to use extraordinary means to prevent her child from being born. If that girl hadn't interfered, he would have been a dead baby. .
Nangong Yuanyi sighed. This girl didn't know yet, so she just saved people. Finally, she was lucky and saved people. Otherwise, he would have gone to prison to visit her family today.
Yesterday, he wanted to come and see if this girl was brave enough, but unfortunately he didn't have the chance. Today, he captured Shangguan Yao and came to see the bold Miss An.
I saw her acting like nothing was wrong. Fortunately, she was smart enough not to brag about yesterday's events, otherwise the eldest princess would not have been able to send someone to deliver gifts.
He became more and more surprised that she had other extraordinary abilities that he didn't know about. He couldn't find out even through his underground dark network. If there was anyone in the world that he couldn't find out, I'm afraid An Xiyue was the only one.
However, she didn't know if Yu Wenjing, the poisonous hand, could do something about her brother's illness.
An Yuxiao also secretly admired her eldest daughter's magnanimity. Seeing that the eldest lady was also dignified and beautiful, her face suddenly felt a little radiant. Thinking about the second and third brother's wives, An Yuxiao suddenly felt that her whole body was radiant.
"An Mansion is so lively, have I missed something?" Nangong Hao, wearing a gold crown and a luxurious purple robe, walked in elegantly, his voice was still as gentle as jade, beautiful and beautiful.
An Xixuan's attention was immediately attracted, and the third lady also felt that this prince was really nice.
Seeing Nangong Yuanyi here, he pretended to be surprised: "My cousin is here too."
Nangong Yuanyi didn't have much enthusiasm for him, and nodded as a greeting. In Nangong Hao's eyes, only Nangong Yuanyi from Prince Yu's Mansion in the entire royal family did not take them as princes seriously. However, Prince Yu held five With one hundred thousand military power, if Nangong Yuanyi makes some achievements in the future, the position of King Yu will naturally belong to Nangong Yuanyi. Therefore, even if he knew that Nangong Yuanyi was disrespectful to the prince, he would just smile generously.
An Yuxiao and the whole family stood up and saluted Nangong Hao: "We have met the fourth prince with our family members."
An Yuxiao also found it strange that the eldest son of Prince Yu and the four princes who were in great power in the palace came to the palace, which made him flattered. He was just a civil servant and had no power in his hands. He could only share the emperor's worries. Handle cases.
