The sickly beauty in front of him made Zhao Xuanyi's eyes light up, and he thought, is this the rumored Princess Splendid? Although I’ve heard about it all along, this is the first time we’ve met?
The snow-white long dress made the girl's morbid condition even more noticeable. Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help but be curious, this was in the palace! There are countless imperial doctors and imperial doctors, how could there be a princess like this? Didn't you give it a good look?
After the girl walked into the main hall, she saw Zhao Xuanyi sitting beside her and took a brief look at him. Although she didn't recognize him, there was nothing strange about her. She was a princess in a deep palace and she never left the house all day long. , it’s normal to have people you don’t know!
"Ningyu, see you, brother!" Zhu Ningyu bowed and saluted!
Um! The sound is like raindrops falling into a pond, with a tinkling sound and an echo! The voice was very pleasant, the kind that would not be forgotten after listening to it once, and Zhao Xuanyi couldn't help but feel excited.
Zhu Wenyu smiled slightly, "My dear sister, please get up quickly. Are you here so early? Can you have breakfast?"
Zhu Ningyu showed a green smile and said, "I've already used it!"
"Really? That's great! Come here! Take a seat!"
The palace maid hurriedly took a chair and placed it on the left, while Zhao Xuanyi and Lan Chuyin were on the right. In ancient times, Zuo Gui was the noblest. This was the rule!
"Thank you, Brother Huang!" After Zhu Ningyu thanked him, he did not sit down. Instead, he looked at Zhao Xuanyi opposite, "I wonder who the lord who is dining at Brother Huang's place is...?"
"Ah, let me introduce to you, this is my Lord Protector of the Ming Dynasty, the second son of Lord Zhao Mingqing, Zhao Xuanyi! I believe you have heard of his name, right?"
Even if Zhu Ningyu had never heard of anyone else, she still heard Zhao Xuanyi's name. After hearing it, she stood up quickly and said, "It turns out he is the famous Protector of the Country. Jinxiu is so polite here!" Wish you all the best, bow down and salute!
Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly stood up and saluted with clasped fists, "Princess Jinxiu, please don't laugh at me! How can I, a former minister, dare to accept Princess Jinxiu's gift!"
"You...know me?" Zhu Ningyu asked in surprise.
"I've heard of Princess Jinxiu for a long time, and I've always wanted to meet her. However, the princess is a noble person, and I, a mere mortal, have a low status. Being able to see her today is indeed better than the rumors. She is really a fairy who has fallen from the mortal world. Those who see her are lucky to see her!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
Who doesn’t like nice words? What's more, it's this Lord Protector with great military exploits? A rare red cloud appeared on Zhu Ningyu's face, "The Protector is both civil and military, he protects his family and the country, he is upright, and he never compromises with rebellious ministers. Ningyu has heard about it for a long time, but when he saw it today, he is indeed an extraordinary man, and he shows his talent!"
"Haha! All these advantages of mine have been revealed by Princess Jinxiu! That's right, it's me!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled happily!
"Shameless!" Li Chunyu whispered from the side.
"..." Zhao Xuanyi glared at Lan Chuyin who was standing aside, thinking, are you so troublesome? .
When Zhu Ningyu heard Lan Chuyin's words, she didn't deliberately laugh. She kept her self-restraint. It was really interesting to see Zhao Xuanyi's embarrassed face!
Zhu Wenyu looked at Zhu Ningyu and asked, "Imperial sister, why are you here in the East Palace? Is there something wrong?"
When Zhu Ningyu heard this, she had a somewhat embarrassed look on her face, "Brother, the emperor knows that the emperor is busy with trivial matters every day now, so he must be very busy! But the birthday of Ningyu's mother, Concubine Lin, is coming soon, and Ningyu wants to spend it with her mother. birthday!"
"Now that the country has just passed a critical moment, it is not advisable to be extravagant and have a big banquet. Therefore, Ningyu wants to take her mother to the temple to pray for blessings. Please allow me to do so!"
When Zhu Wenyu heard this, she realized, "It turns out that the imperial sister wants to accompany the imperial concubine to burn incense and pray for blessings, so this is the place, junior sister!"
"Yes!" Lan Chuyin stood up quickly.
"You and the imperial concubine should discuss it. On the day of the imperial concubine's birthday, you will be responsible for protecting the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine. They will leave the palace and rush to the temple. Then they must be brought back safely. The palace guards will be chosen by you, so be extra careful!"
"Understood!" Lan Chuyin said.
Zhu Ningyu slowly stood up and said, "Thank you, Brother Huang!"
"Your Majesty, you are welcome. Someone is here.
Look at the tea! Zhu Wenyu said with a smile.
At this moment, in Stepping Cloud Pavilion, Zhu Yuejun woke up and stretched out his hand but failed to catch Zhao Xuanyi. Only then did Zhu Yuejun remember that Zhao Xuanyi had gone to the morning court today! Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing, and slowly sat up, "Nanzhu!"
"Here!" Nan Zhu walked in with a basin in his hand, "Is the eldest princess okay?"
"Well!" Zhu Yuejun said slowly.
Nan Zhu walked into the bedroom, took the new clothes, and put them on Zhu Yuejun!
"Yoshiro hasn't gone to court yet?"
"The Duke... seems to have gone to court a long time ago, but he was called to the East Palace by the prince. He must have something to discuss!"
Zhu Yuejun smiled, "It's your first time to formally go to court. I guess you won't be so calm, right?"
"The left prime minister and other officials in the court proposed to let the prince have a concubine, but the duke opposed it with all his strength. In the end, under his pressure, he defeated all those long-tongued ministers. This matter is understood for the time being!"
"I guessed it! If Yoshiro didn't even do these two things, he, the Lord Protector, would have been unable to sit still! It's been so long, and the left prime minister is still unsettled!"
"Indeed, in the past few days, the Moon Guards in the palace have come to report that Qi Qingyu seems to have started to pay greetings to the queen!"
"Huh! You are really evil! But Qi Lianzhong can clearly see the situation in front of him, indeed! Compared with the princess who has no control over the girl, Qi Qingyu is indeed a very good choice, but it is just a choice!"
"besides……?"
"what else?"
Nan Zhu had a look of embarrassment on his face, "Just now, news came out from the palace that Princess Jinxiu went to the East Palace. I don't know what happened!"
"..." After hearing this, Zhu Yuejun turned to look at Nanzhu, "Did you just say that the Protector was summoned to the East Palace by the Crown Prince?"
"yes!"
"Prepare the car!" Zhu Yuejun shouted loudly!
Zhao Xuanyi sat on his seat, chatting freely with Zhu Wenyu, and drank wine to his heart's content. Looking at the girl opposite who was eating snacks and drinking fragrant tea, Zhao Xuanyi felt that the person in front of him was not a woman, but a painting. A delicate painting of a young girl reciting poems and sipping tea, I can't help but be fascinated by it. Li Hanyan shouldn't care about marrying another concubine, right?
Just when Zhao Xuanyi and Zhu Wenyu were chatting happily, a girl's voice came from outside the hall, "The eldest princess is here!"
This sentence startled everyone in the hall, and they all stood up in a hurry. Even Zhu Wenyu stood up. Then Zhu Yuejun was seen wearing a white dress and slowly walking into the hall. His eyes were cold in the hall. Cold sweep once and skip everyone once!
"See the eldest princess!" everyone shouted in unison!
Zhu Yuejun did not speak, but turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi, slowly came to Zhu Wenyu, looked at the food and wine on the table, stretched out his jade hand to pick up a wine glass, put it in front of his nose and sniffed "Drink in the morning, get drunk" Meng Fanghua! The prince is so elegant!"
Zhu Wenyu was so frightened that she almost jumped out of her chest. She hurriedly pointed at Zhao Xuanyi, "It's the Duke who insists on having me drink with him!"
"..." Damn it? Zhu Wenyu, you are so interesting! Who is accompanying whom? You can throw the pot very well!
Nan Zhu took the chair and placed it on the main hall. Zhu Yuejun slowly sat down and looked at Zhao Xuanyi coldly, "The Protector is really in a good mood! Drinking strong alcohol early in the morning? Do you plan to do things in a hazy manner and neglect your duties?"
"I... don't dare! I was so frightened by the civil and military forces of the court this morning that I came to the prince's place to ask for a drink. I was so shocked! I only drank three glasses! It's not a problem!"
"So it's me who disturbed the prince's drinking pleasure?"
"Of course not. I've had enough wine and food, and I'm going to take care of business!" Zhao Xuanyi asked in his heart, are you two aunts and nephews finished? One has a red face and the other has a white face, what are you doing? Why are you taking it out on me if nothing happens?
Zhu Yuejun snorted coldly and turned to look at Zhu Ningyu beside him, "Princess Jinxiu is here too! Let's drink and have fun together?"
"Princess Qi, Ning Yu didn't dare. I just came to ask for help from the imperial brother. I met the Protector by chance. I had long heard that the Protector was talented in literature and outstanding in appearance, so I stayed a little longer!"
"Oh? So that's it, I didn't know if you saw it
How about the Duke? "
"The Duke...?" Zhu Ningyu raised her head and looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "The Duke is a talented person and speaks freely and freely. It is just as rumored!"
