After the concubines and concubines of Prince Zhou's palace were separated, Zhou Ting did not let them fend for themselves; the older ones were assigned positions in the army, and those who were capable were placed in important positions loyally.
A small-minded but dishonest bastard can just work as an insignificant civil servant.
As a result, Zhou Ting gained a good reputation, and King Zhou was extremely angry. Unfortunately, he could not get out, and was placed under house arrest by the people of Zhou Ting. The concubines who had children were sent out of the palace, and the concubines who were born with hairpins were married off, and those who were less than hairpins followed. Their aunt was struggling to make a living, but no one could see him, and no one cared about him. No matter how angry she was, she could only be furious.
Princess Zhou has never felt that her life has been so comfortable.
The entire palace is in the hands of her son. She is in charge of the inner courtyard and pays no attention to the concubines and aunts in the backyard. They don't dare to have other thoughts. Once they are found out, their end will definitely not be good.
With this knowledge, one has to be afraid before having thoughts.
They have seen Zhou Ting's methods clearly in four months.
The children of King Zhou's concubines clearly realized that they would never win if they were afraid of playing tricks and tricks with Zhou Ting.
Aunt Xu said with a smile: "The princess is lucky, the prince is very capable, and the prince is no match for the prince. In the future, you and the prince will no longer have to worry about the prince, and you can live your life however you want."
"That's right." Princess Zhou's gentle smile showed a bit of complacency, "Old guy, old and immortal, I can't live a comfortable day without him."
Aunt Xu smiled and said nothing, patiently listening to her master's murmurs.
When Princess Zhou was satisfied, she changed the subject and asked, "Xiaoqing, how are things going with the prince and the young lady of the Cheng family?"
"Although the prince has not gone to see the young lady, he will send things over from time to time."
"He seems to be really interested in you." Princess Zhou chuckled helplessly, "As soon as you become interested, your whole heart will be devoted to him. Is it okay to raise a little wife?"
Aunt Xu's smile was still there. She shouldn't have said a word, put it in one ear and go in the other, and not keep it in her head.
"My son is very curious about Miss Cheng. Didn't Kyoto send a batch of tributes last month? I selected a few items suitable for a little girl to send to the prince. Clothing materials, shoes, and jewelry are also given. Your prince, are you? I really treat Mrs. Cheng as my daughter-in-law, and all the gifts she gives are matching."
Even if it doesn’t match, people have to find matching ones.
"Well, I'll go to the warehouse to make a selection later."
"Take what you have chosen." After Princess Zhou finished speaking, she remembered that her son had asked her to have the doctor prepare the medicine, and she couldn't help but laugh. "My son's temperament is not like that of an immortal at all, but more like his grandfather. "
"Unlike that old man who never dies, my daughter-in-law is blessed."
After she finished sighing, she was the gentle and dignified Princess Zhou again.
Aunt Xu personally went to the princess's warehouse and selected five items to send to Prince Zhou. The medicine woman also made them.
Zhou Ting was stunned when he saw these things, "Mother Xu, what are you doing?"
"If you want to return to the prince, the princess ordered the slave to deliver it."
"Mother and concubine?" Zhou Ting saw the things on the table and understood. "Thank you for letting me worry about my mother and concubine."
Aunt Xu smiled and nodded before leaving.
Zhou Ting stared at the six things on the table and said loudly: "No, come in."
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?" Bu Wei, who was doing staff arrangements in the yard, came quickly, with his shoulders folded and his eyes lowered, waiting for orders.
"Have you delivered the customized items?"
Not bowing his head, he said, "Sir, I left the house early in the morning and went to Furong Pavilion to ask; they said that the craftsmen are rushing to make it and will deliver it tomorrow at the latest."
"Let me tell you that it's here." Zhou Ting retreated and stared at the things on the table in a daze.
Bu Wei walked out of the study and went to the sewing room in person to ensure that the clothes he had made for the Cheng family's young lady had been completed. Then he left the house and ran towards Furongxuan. He urged the craftsmen again, and the shopkeeper promised to urge the craftsmen again, and they must be early. Send it over, don't leave just because of this.
In the evening of the same day, the shopkeeper of Furongxuan personally came to the door with something.
Instead of bringing people into the prince's courtyard, Zhou Ting personally checked whether it was appropriate.
The shopkeeper of Furongxuan smiled and was very respectful, "Don't worry, Sir, they are all made according to the drawings you gave, and the master craftsmen strictly control them."
"Yeah." Zhou Ting nodded with satisfaction and gave up after reading them one by one. "You did a good job. If you don't do it, I will reward you."
Buwei walked up to the shopkeeper with a smile on his face and said, "Please."
"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. The common people will retire."
The shopkeeper of Furongxuan exited the study and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Not wanting to see him like this, he chuckled and said, "Don't be afraid, shopkeeper Xu. The prince has always been considerate of the people. As long as you do what you should do according to the requirements, the prince is very kind."
"Yes, yes, the prince has always been kind." Shopkeeper Xu smiled falsely, not because he was feeling guilty, but because he was too imposing.
Their eldest son of King Zhou is only a teenager, but even a man who has lived for decades is afraid of him; should he be said to be worthy of being the eldest son of King Zhou?
The children of aristocratic families have been raised since childhood, and they are indeed not the kind of people that ordinary people can raise.
Buwei saw the insincerity of his words and stuffed a purse into him, "This is what the Crown Prince has given you as a reward. You can settle the rest of the accounts with the housekeeper."
"Yes, thank you for the reward, Your Majesty, and thank you for the little father-in-law's guidance."
Not wanting to see Shopkeeper Xu off, he returned to the study, only to see his eldest son staring at the customized jewelry and small toys.
Zhou Ting noticed someone entering the room, looked up and said, "Have the clothes been customized?"
"My dearest son, everything is ready and put in the side room."
"Bring them all." Sitting back on the chair, Zhou Ting held a small white jade hairpin with a lovely gardenia carved on it; three tassels hung from the bottom of the flower, hanging small pearls and small red agate. Sophisticated yet dynamic tassels.
"Yes." Buwei turned around and went to the wing to bring two large boxes of clothes, shoes and socks.
Zhou Ting compared each item one by one, even if he didn't want to help with counting.
Standing by and watching the prince busy, I couldn't help but sigh, that Mrs. Cheng is really a lucky person; she is obviously a peasant girl, but she still escaped from famine, but she saved the prince's life, and she was taken seriously by the prince. superior.
I wonder if there will be someone else who saves the prince in the future and who will be taken into consideration by the prince?
Don't repent again and again for a single inspiration.
Sin, sin, how could he expect his master to be in danger.
It really shouldn't be.
Looking at the busy prince, who was so happy with his food, he had to think more.
Think about the time when I first met Mrs. Cheng. She was a dark and skinny little girl who looked like a refugee. Apart from being well-behaved, polite, and generous, she had no other advantages.
However, during the few months on the road, the prince transformed her into a completely new person; she became fairer, her face gained flesh, and Yuxue looked cute, lively and smart.
To this day, even though the prince has repaid the favor of saving his life, he still does not change his past ways.
