The next morning, Jiang Hui was woken up again by the noise outside the door.
Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu came out of breath to tell the princess that King Youzhou wanted to build a study outside the door.
Why build a study room?
Jiang Hui didn't understand why Nan Guozhen built a study at the gate, but when she heard that Nan Guozhen was coming, she couldn't wait to run to the gate to see what happened.
"Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu quickly dress up this princess." Jiang Hui ordered anxiously.
Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu said 'yes' and started dressing Jiang Hui.
"The date is behind a door and you can't touch the other person at all. In fact, the princess doesn't need to be so nervous." Yuzhu asked.
"Yuzhu, do you have someone you like?"
Jiang Hui asked suddenly, and Yuzhu was a little confused. "I...I didn't..."
"So you don't understand, when you like someone, you want to give him the most beautiful version of yourself."
With two ingenious makeup masters, Jiang Hui quickly finished her makeup and came to the door beautifully. Jiang Hui looked around and saw through the crack in the door that Nanguo Zhengming was bringing in chairs, tables, and stacks of official documents along the way and Shunyi.
It seems that the King of Youzhou will be reviewing official documents here today.
"Brother Zhen'er, do you think this door of mine is the imperial study room?"
"This month, my royal study will be moved here."
"Is this okay? Grandma Huang won't blame her?"
"Don't worry about this. I already asked for permission yesterday."
Indeed, Nan Guozhen asked the Crown Princess for instructions yesterday. The Crown Princess did not agree at first, but she could not help but her grandson knelt in front of her and refused, so the Crown Princess had no choice but to agree. Besides, her grandson is now the King of Youzhou, and she Don't overdo it either. Therefore, the Crown Princess turned a blind eye to Nan Guozhen's self-abuse concubine.
"Then brother Zhen'er isn't afraid of rain?" Jiang Hui asked again.
Jiang Hui's mouth was really 'stinky'. As soon as she said these words, a bolt of lightning flashed from the sky, followed by a thunder. It was really going to rain today. However, Nan Guozhen had already been prepared. He had already ordered Shun Dao and Shunyi to build a wooden house on the right side of the gate.
Nan Guozhen would come to the gate every day to meet Jiang Hui and review the memorials. Although they were separated by a door, their hearts were tightly connected. At the first meeting, Nan Guozhen only reviewed official documents in the cabin. In the end, he even ate and slept in the cabin until Jiang Hui's full-term confinement was lifted.
The minister heard that the king's favorite concubine of Youzhou abused him so much that he couldn't live in the luxurious Fengtuan Palace, but had to squeeze into a small wooden house with three tables just to meet the princess! The minister really had nothing to say to the masochistic and pampered concubine of Youzhou King.
Nan Guozhen would give Jiang Hui half of the meals delivered by the imperial kitchen, so Jiang Hui gained weight during the month of being grounded. The skinny Jiang Hui finally gained weight, but Nanguo Zhenle was ruined.
…………
After finally surviving the full month of confinement, Jiang Hui's confinement was lifted today.
The first thing Jiang Hui did after the confinement was lifted was to pay her respects to the Crown Princess.
Nan Guozhen was afraid that Grandma Huang would seek advice to punish Jiang Hui again, so Nan Guozhen simply accompanied Jiang Hui to pay his respects to Grandma Huang.
Jiang Hui and Nan Guozhen led Wu to the imperial concubine's bedroom, where Jiang Min happened to be there.
Ever since the day when the Crown Princess adopted Jiang Min as her adopted daughter, Jiang Min had been living in the Crown Princess's bedroom. Jiang Hui would sometimes bend her back and rub her shoulders, sometimes play chess with her, and sometimes dance and sing a song, which she liked deeply.
"My grandson, Nan Guozhen, would like to send my regards to Grandma Huang. I wish Grandma Huang to be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as Nanshan Mountain!"
"My grandson-in-law, Jiang Hui, would like to send my greetings to Grandma Huang. I wish Grandma Huang good luck as the east and longevity as high as the Southern Mountains!"
The Crown Princess smiled slightly and said, "You two, get up!"
After Nan Guozhen and Jiang Hui thanked the Crown Princess, Nan Guozhen helped Jiang Hui and stood up.
"Jiang Min, the daughter of Jiang Shangshu, has met the King and Princess of Youzhou."
Although Jiang Hui is now the goddaughter of the Crown Princess, Nan Guozhen and Jiang Hui should call her aunt according to their seniority, but according to the etiquette of a monarch and a minister, Jiang Min still has to kneel down first.
Nan Guozhen raised his hand and said, "Auntie, no courtesy."
Nan Guozhen called her "aunt", which made Jiang Min feel a little disappointed and murmured: "Am I that old?"
Jiang Hui looked at Jiang Min carefully. This girl was beautiful, gentle, and knowledgeable. She was the type that Grandma Huang liked. No wonder Grandma Huang wanted Zhen'er to make her her concubine.
"Jiang Hui has met her aunt." Jiang Hui bowed to Jiang Min.
In fact, when Jiang Hui was sizing up Jiang Min, Jiang Min was also sizing up Jiang Hui, and Jiang Min was also amazed by Jiang Hui's charming beauty. Jiang Min thought to herself, "No wonder King Youzhou loves her so much."
"Princess, no courtesy." Jiang Min hurriedly replied.
Seeing that everyone was nervous, the Crown Princess said, "Hui'er, you are the granddaughter-in-law of the Ai family, and you are half a daughter of the Ai family; Min'er is the goddaughter of the Ai family, and you are half a daughter; Then you two are both daughters of the Ai family; from now on, you two will treat each other as sisters, and there won’t be so many red tapes."
Jiang Hui and Jiang Min both agreed with the order.
"Grandma Huang, Hui'er and Min'er are sisters. What about Zhen'er? Should Zhen'er call Min'er aunt or sister?"
This really stumped the clever Crown Princess. She pondered for a moment and said, "Zhen'er is the King of Youzhou. Zhen'er can be called whatever he wants."
Nan Guozhen knew that the imperial concubine was still determined to make her a concubine, so accepting Jiang Min as his goddaughter was only a temporary move. When the time was right, he would make Jiang Min his concubine again. Although Jiang Shangshu's daughter is kind, unfortunately I don't have that intention for her. I want to find a way to make both Grandma Huang and Jiang Min give up.
"Then Zhen'er should call Jiang Min aunt! It's more respectful."
Even a fool could understand the meaning of Nan Guozhen's words, which was to give Jiang Min no hope. How could the Crown Princess and Jiang Min not understand it?
The Crown Princess and Jiang Min could only remain silent.
It's time to eat. In the past, it was Nan Guozhen, Jiang Hui, and the Crown Princess who ate, but now there is an extra Jiang Min. The imperial dining room knew that the king of Youzhou, the princess, and the imperial concubine liked to eat small yellow croaker from the river, so the imperial dining room cooked a small yellow croaker dish every day.
Today, the portion of the small yellow croaker was small, with only three pieces. Nan Guo first put one piece for the Crown Princess, and then put one piece in his bowl, thinking that the last piece would be for Jiang Hui. Little did they know that Jiang Min also liked to eat small yellow croaker. Jiang Min's chopsticks happened to collide with Jiang Hui's chopsticks. In the end, they looked at each other in embarrassment, neither of them daring to pick up the small yellow croaker.
"Auntie also likes to eat fish, so I will ask the imperial kitchen to make more portions in the future."
While talking, Nan Guozhen gave the last small yellow croaker to Jiang Min, and then gave the small yellow croaker in his rice bowl to Jiang Hui.
Jiang Hui knew that Nan Guozhen liked to eat fish, especially small yellow croaker, so she returned the small yellow croaker with the bones to Nan Guozhen, and Nan Guozhen gave half of it back to Jiang Hui.
The two of you let me, and I let you, back and forth to each other, making Jiang Min feel like an outsider.
After finishing the meal, Nan Guozhen and Jiang Hui thanked the Crown Princess and left. When they left, they still held hands lovingly.
Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu had already moved their clothes back to Feng Shuang Hall. Jiang Hui was lying on the bed caressing the bed she had slept on for ten years and suddenly felt reluctant to leave.
When Nan Guozhen saw it, he promised, "Hui'er. This humble residence is your natal family. You can come back and live at any time."
If you have your natal family land, then you have to worry day and night about being thrown into the cold palace if you are not careful? Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu were both happy for their imperial concubine.
After moving back to Fengtuan Palace, Nan Guozhen is still a masochistic doting concubine.
It is said that the princess likes to swing, and King Youzhou often acts as a pusher on the swing.
Hearing that the princess liked to fly kites, the king of Youzhou specially made a big kite for the princess.
I heard that the princess especially liked the smell of gardenias, so the prince of Youzhou planted a gardenia in the back garden for the princess!
I also heard that as long as the princess likes it, the King of Youzhou will give it to her. In short, it is a masochistic favor.
