"Um?"
When Princess Danyang came to her senses, she saw that her uncle, who had been very cold and indifferent before, was now staring at her nervously.
Emperor Xuande breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his niece finally came back to her senses.
"You kid, why are you so dazed?"
But after complaining, he immediately turned around without waiting for Danyang to explain, and ordered the guards to "go quickly and chase back the person who was about to call the imperial doctor, so as not to cause trouble in the city."
Emperor Xuande remembered to ask Danyang after he poured out the empty bowl.
"Why were you so stunned just now?"
What exactly are you remembering? Still afraid of something? Or are you simply thinking of something else?
After asking this question, he called Danyang again and followed him to sit down in peace. I was going to chat with this little girl for a while while waiting for the attendant to find Mrs. Wu who was missing.
But when they had just reached the middle of the hall, they went to find Mrs. Wu's guards, and then led them back slowly through the side door at the back of the hall.
As soon as the two cars met each other, the air seemed to freeze for a moment, and the room was eerily silent for a long time.
Mrs. Wu was suddenly found just after she hid the Du family. Therefore, I don’t know if the chaos at that time fell into the eyes of outsiders. Will it become a joke in the capital later?
As for Emperor Xuande, after suddenly meeting Mrs. Wu, he felt inexplicably like a dove occupying a magpie's nest. Plus, my niece just got into trouble. When he suddenly saw the suffering owner, he inevitably felt guilty.
Danyang was originally following Emperor Xuande, but the man in front of him suddenly stopped and remained silent for a long time.
Therefore, out of curiosity, when I just raised my head, I couldn't help but be stunned.
However, she came back to her senses the next moment and looked back and forth at the expressions of Mrs. Wu and Emperor Xuande. After taking another look at the direction Mrs. Wu came from, she immediately took a step forward and broke the strange silence with a smile.
"Could it be that grandma heard that my uncle was coming, so she was busy getting ready to pick up the car?"
Although it makes sense, it obviously cannot explain the silence at this moment. And in Mrs. Wu's eyes, anyone with a discerning eye could clearly see the fear and anxiety.
But at this point in time, who cares about this little flaw?
As long as they could get rid of the current embarrassment, not only Emperor Xuande, but also Mrs. Wu would give Princess Danyang a rare and pleasant look.
"Ahem, that's right. Your Majesty, please forgive me. My wife is late to pick me up."
As Mrs. Wu spoke, she slowly bowed down to show her great courtesy.
Although she is just a housewife, she was the wife of the director of the Duke's Mansion in the past few decades and the former wife of the Duke of Zhen. Naturally, I have seen many real big scenes.
Even the predecessor of Emperor Xuande and the Empress Dowager had visited the Zhenguo Palace as guests, and the director at that time was the young Mrs. Wu.
It's just that those two were serious people, either sending chamberlains or palace officials, and they came to inform the Duke's palace at least half a month in advance. How different is this person, who comes as soon as he wants and doesn't even go through the main entrance!
I really don’t know if this outlandish style was influenced by Danyang, or if Danyang inherited the lineage of Qinghe, which is some trait of Emperor Xuande?
Madam Wu, who was confused, was halfway through her worship when Emperor Xuande raised her hand and stopped her.
"Old Madam, you are very polite. I am rude to you for your sudden visit today. I hope it will not cause too much trouble or fright to everyone in the Duke's residence."
Emperor Xuande finished his humble speech with a smile, and motioned to Mrs. Wu to go inside and sit down to talk.
He acted in a relaxed and relaxed manner, as if this was not the Duke's palace, but his Xuanhe Hall.
The person who was mainly anti-customer could be so natural and smooth, which made Danyang who was watching from the side sigh to himself and feel inferior.
Emperor Xuande naturally sat at the top. Although the other seats were arranged in two ways-either according to status or according to age.
But in fact, it was just a difference between sitting on the left hand side of Emperor Xuande or on the right hand side.
For Danyang, this is actually completely meaningless.
But in Mrs. Wu's eyes, it was enough to make her not only look tense, but also move stiffly as she waited. It seemed that she would not sit on the chair unless Emperor Xuande gave him an explanation.
Emperor Xuande, who was originally thinking about how to speak, raised his eyes and saw Mrs. Wu with a tense expression. He thought that she was waiting for him to speak and then took the opportunity to complain.
But after a blink of an eye, he saw Danyang standing there waiting with a helpless expression, and he suddenly understood.
He sighed with laughter in his heart, and at the same time said with a serious face:
"I am a guest. The old lady has a long history, so naturally I should sit in the honorary seat on the right, please."
As he spoke, Emperor Xuande raised his hand and waved it lightly to show respect, following the rules of granting seats in the palace.
But he sighed in his heart, as expected, not staying at the minister's house on weekdays was the most regretless decision he had ever made in his life!
Of course, this does not include my own family, such as the princess mansion where Danyang mother and daughter live.
But unfortunately, he felt that going there was like going back to his parents' home, but their parents never wanted to see him...
As soon as I thought of this, the sour and resentful mood suddenly emerged again.
And when he turned his eyes, he saw Danyang, who was holding back his laughter until his face turned slightly red, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Hey, good thing, good thing, he still has this pistachio. In order to relieve boredom, I now have the ability to make suggestions.
When Emperor Xuande was happy, he also remembered the ultimate purpose of his visit.
At this moment, Mrs. Wu and Danyang have also "returned to their respective places".
After lowering his eyes for a moment, Emperor Xuande smiled and spoke again, repeating his opening remarks that were more than a moment and a half late, and said:
"Have you heard about the recent major events in Beijing, Madam?"
After Mrs. Wu heard this, she was stunned for a moment, then she looked up at Danyang, who was especially honest at this moment, and then cautiously replied:
"My wife is getting old, and she hears less about the gossip outside the house. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I wonder what you mean by being quiet?"
Emperor Xuande raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He has hit a soft nail.
And the other party's words were hinting to him not to interfere with the family affairs of their Zhenguo Palace?
It's a pity that Qinghe is also his sister, and Danyang is also his niece!
But reason is not on his side, and he is indeed acting favoritism. His smile did not change and he said slowly:
"Speaking of it, this matter is a bit bloody. I shouldn't talk to an old lord like you. But no matter what, my sister-in-law is involved. If I don't make it clear, the old lord will inevitably misunderstand it."
Emperor Xuande said it very kindly, but Mrs. Wu was frightened when she heard it at the end.
Misunderstand?
Who did she misunderstand? It can’t be Emperor Xuande, right? !
The ministers can only be loyal to the class!
If this statement is true, then she is not only causing trouble for herself, but also taking hundreds of lives in the Zhenguo Duke's mansion as a bet.
I bet Emperor Xuande was just joking!
