No matter what, the Crown Princess couldn't stand a festival like Laba. The Crown Prince did not come to her palace, but spent it with Liang Di.
This is related to her face and dignity in the entire East Palace!
So the princess calmed down her anger, regained her composure, and dressed up in a particularly grand manner.
She led her men and Laba porridge and chased Xu Liangdi's palace.
"My hairpin is not crooked, is it? Are my clothes neat?" The princess asked her mother again outside.
"Not crooked, neat! The Crown Princess is as beautiful as a peach and plum, a flower of wealth in the world! That Xu Liangdi is not even as good as your toes.
"His Highness was fascinated by her because you were not here. When you came in, how could His Highness still see her?"
The princess' words were of great use to her.
After the palace officials announced the news, the princess entered the palace.
The sight she saw directly impacted her brain, leaving her mind blank!
What did she see?
She actually saw the prince rubbing Xu Liangdi's ankle?
"Ahem! Why is the Crown Princess here?" The Crown Prince coughed slightly and put down his hand.
Xu Liangdi also hurriedly put on her shoes and stood up to salute.
"Hiss..." She failed to stand firm and fell back again.
"Sit still and don't move. Since you are injured, all etiquette is waived." The prince said fondly.
Xu Liangdi looked shy, "Thank you, Your Highness! Crown Princess Haihan!"
She lowered her head, revealing her slender white neck.
The princess staggered back a step.
If she hadn't been holding her back, she doubted that she would be able to stand.
Has the prince ever been so gentle to her? Even when she gave birth to Yunjie... the prince had never been so gentle and careless!
She has been here for so long...
Did the prince ever look at her intently?
The prince's eyes always lingered on Xu Liangdi...
Yes... Xu Liangdi today is indeed different from the past.
In the past, Xu Liangdi was gorgeous and ostentatious, with a hair full of red hair, and gorgeous clothes that surpassed all other beauties... She was beautiful, but gaudy and unbearable to look at.
Today's Xu Liangdi looks like she has been reborn...an elegant light pink coat with a snow-white fox fur collar, a few simple pink jade hairpins on her head, and her ears are adorned with slightly darker but shiny pink tourmalines. Earrings.
The whole person has a sense of being otherworldly, charming but not vulgar, gorgeous but not seductive.
Her original beauty was no longer obscured by overly gorgeous clothing.
On the contrary, they complement each other and add an extra layer of pure beauty.
"What are you here for?" the prince asked again.
"Today's Laba..." The princess' face was pale, as white as the snow falling outside.
"Oh..." The prince's eyes swept over her and landed on the food box carried by the palace maid.
"Leave the Laba porridge, you can go back. Xu Liangdi sprained her foot... I won't be able to make it today."
The prince's tone was calm, as if he didn't pay attention at all, and tears were already welling up in the eyes of the prince.
"This Laba porridge was cooked by me personally for the prince..."
After the Crown Princess finished speaking, Mammy understood and hurriedly said: "In order to cook porridge for the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess burned her hands..."
Mammy lifted up the princess's sleeves and held up her hand.
"Don't..." The princess pretended not to show it to the prince.
The prince frowned and his eyes paused on her hand for a moment, "I've already applied the medicine, so go back and have a good rest. There are so many cooks in the kitchen and dining room. What are you doing in the kitchen when you have nothing to do? It's so smoky, you I’m not good at cooking, so don’t bother with it in the future.”
The Crown Princess's heart froze... Is this his "heartache"?
Didn't he even think it was necessary to come up and take a closer look?
What was he doing just now? He would rather give Xu Liangdi a concubine! Rubbing the ankles of a concubine? Does he still remember that he is the crown prince?
"Your Highness the Crown Prince... Today is the Laba Festival. According to the regulations, you can stay in the concubine's palace!" The Crown Princess really wanted to walk away.
But she can't! She can't leave the prince here with this vixen!
She wants to take the prince away too!
The prince frowned, "My father is not in the mother's palace today! Oh... the mother is still confined in Fengqi Palace, and you dress up so coquettishly and grandly! Do you still have the mother in your heart?"
"You keep saying that Xu Liangdi is ignorant! In recent days, Xu Liangdi has been dressing plainly. She always likes bright colors.
"Gu asked her why she suddenly changed her preferences. She said it was because she was worried that her mother would not be able to eat or sleep well in Fengqi Palace!
"It's Laba. We are eating Laba porridge, but the mother can't see her children and grandchildren. How uncomfortable must it be?"
"Look, is this her ignorance? Is this your understanding? Your mother has always treated you well! Do you still have a conscience?"
The Crown Princess was scolded all over her face... She couldn't hold it in any longer, took a step back, turned around and left.
She couldn't cry in front of Xu Liangdi, she couldn't show her embarrassment in front of a concubine...
After leaving the palace, she lay on her nanny's shoulder, tears rolling down her eyes...
"Why? Is it because Xu Liangdi is young and beautiful? When he married me, I was still young when I didn't give birth to Yunjie!"
Grandma didn't dare to answer, so she could only pat her back gently.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier.
"Princess, it's cold outside, let's... go back!"
"The clothes she wore today...the outfit she wore today was bought from Princess Huai's shop?" The princess suddenly turned around and asked the eldest maid.
The eldest palace maid was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, the material is delicate and shiny, and when moved slightly, a gleaming light flows. It is the finest Yun Brocade."
"And the Yun Jin in the East Palace was definitely not given to Xu Liangdi!"
The Crown Princess wiped away her tears and snorted heavily, "Wen Jin actually helped Xu Liangdi!"
The grandma and the eldest maid were all shocked when they heard this.
"She helped Xu Liangdi just to deliberately go against me!
"You guys think of a way to ask people to go to that shop and inquire carefully! I have never heard of such a great shop in Kyoto before!
"Find out who is taking care of Wen Jin's shop and dress Xu Liangdi up..."
The Crown Princess suddenly shut up. What she didn't finish saying was - so stunning!
Even when she saw Xu Liangdi for the first time, she was shocked by the clothes, the outfit, the atmosphere...
Her cold and noble beauty caused her to be caught by jealousy in a stunning moment!
…
The Crown Princess's people quickly found out.
"The shopkeeper's niece? She comes from the country?" the princess asked suspiciously, "How can a country person have such vision and ability?"
"That's what everyone in the store says...but her residence was bought for her by Princess Huai, which is not far behind the shop."
"She also signed a contract with Princess Huai, and now she is regarded as Princess Huai's person."
The Crown Princess frowned, thinking about something.
Mammy said: "If the Crown Princess appreciates that woman's vision, why not invite that woman to come in and have her clothes tailor-made for the Crown Princess from scratch?
"Can the materials in the East Palace be inferior to what can be obtained from Prince Huai's Mansion?"
The Crown Princess snorted softly upon hearing this, and then sneered.
"Recruit her into the palace? Then put her back? Give her back to Wen Jin?
"She can turn Xu Liangdi from a gaudy woman into a cold and noble beauty. It shows that she is really capable.
"Since I know such a capable talent, why should I leave it to Wen Jin? Should I keep her to help Xu Liangdi deal with me?!"
The mama and the palace maid hurriedly said, "The crown prince is still smarter! Why not think of a way to snatch this woman away!"
