The servants were very worried about being punished because they had seen too much, so they were particularly attentive to serving him today.
After all, this prince used to kill people at the slightest disagreement.
I saw the prince being kicked and beaten by the princess with my own eyes. Is this a scene that I can watch?
"Breakfast has been prepared a long time ago. Please finish it and eat as soon as possible. Today is the day to return home, so it is better to go early."
The housekeeper Lao Qin shouted loudly in the courtyard.
When they came to the front hall to eat, Shangguan Yue'er had already been sitting at the table waiting for a long time.
When the prince and the principal concubine come together, naturally the concubine will not dare to eat first.
Seeing the two people arriving late, Shangguan Yue'er didn't dare to ask any more questions. She just got up and stepped forward to greet them with a salute.
This was the first time the three of them sat down to have a meal together.
Suddenly there were two more women in the house, and Xuanyuan Yi was still a little uncomfortable.
Even if he was the real master, he would still be embarrassed and not know what to say.
Lin Wanru was even more unruly when she saw a table of good food.
He went straight forward and sat down, picked up his chopsticks and ate without paying attention to Shangguan Yue'er's salute.
"Wow, this is delicious, yes, this is delicious too."
Shangguan Yue'er couldn't stand it and said:
"Princess, the prince hasn't even touched his chopsticks yet, how could the princess start eating so carelessly?"
Lin Wanru glanced at Shangguan Yue'er and disdained to talk to her.
"Princess, doesn't Princess Dou know how a woman obeys her husband when she gets married?"
Shangguan Yue'er said reluctantly that even though Lin Wanru helped her on the wedding day, she still felt that Lin Wanru deliberately set her up to embarrass herself in public and pretended to be kind to her.
After listening to Shangguan Yue'er talking non-stop, Lin Wanru said to Xuanyuan Yi impatiently:
"Hey, what is your concubine talking about? Why can't I understand?"
Hearing Lin Wanru call herself a concubine, Shangguan Yue'er blushed because no one had ever dared to treat her like this:
"I am a concubine granted marriage by His Majesty, not a concubine!"
"Oh, you are the concubine whom His Majesty has granted marriage to, and I am the principal concubine whom His Majesty has granted marriage to. I, the principal concubine, have not disciplined you yet, but you have disciplined me? Don't you know that in this palace, besides the prince, everyone has to be disciplined? Do you respect me, the principal concubine? How dare a mere concubine yell at the principal concubine."
The way Lin Wanru spoke in a leisurely manner made Shangguan Yue'er gnash her teeth in hatred, but she had nothing to say.
Xuanyuan Yi saw these two people engaging in verbal quarrels when they had dinner together for the first time. He didn't want to get involved, so he didn't say anything.
"Your Majesty... Look at the princess bullying me... Doesn't your Majesty even care about her?"
Shangguan Yue'er said coquettishly in a voice that was about to cry.
"Have a meal."
Xuanyuan Yi followed Lin Wanru's example and ate by himself without looking at anyone.
The butler came after a while.
"Your Majesty, the princess and the concubine are both going home today. I wonder who the prince wants to accompany him back home!"
The housekeeper was also in a dilemma. After all, the concubine was a young lady from the Duke's palace and was given a marriage by His Majesty.
At this point, both Lin Wanru and Shangguan Yue'er looked at Xuanyuan Yi.
Xuanyuan Yi didn't know what to do and looked at the housekeeper.
"Actually, Your Majesty, there is no need to be embarrassed. Just stay with your Yue'er. This Princess has her own things to do, so there is no need to accompany her."
Lin Wanru stuffed a big mouthful into her mouth and put down the bowl and chopsticks.
"Old Qin, this princess is full, please lead the way."
After saying that, Lin Wanru left gracefully, leaving Shangguan Yue'er and Xuanyuan Yi behind.
"Your Majesty, thank you very much for accompanying Yue'er back to your home."
Shangguan Yue'er had a victorious expression on her face and thought to herself: "You are wise enough to know that Brother Yi will not go back with you. This is good, and it will save you the embarrassment on your face when you say it."
"Yue'er, this king still has official business, so you can go back to the house by yourself today!"
Xuanyuan Yi put down his bowls and chopsticks and left quickly.
Shangguan Yue'er, who originally looked happy, gradually turned gloomy.
Xuanyuan Yi was very curious when he heard Lin Wanru say that he had something to do.
Then he got directly into Lin Wanru's carriage and waited.
When Lin Wanru packed up and got into the carriage.
Opening the curtain of the carriage, I was shocked, wondering why Xuanyuan Yi would follow.
"Your Majesty?"
"Didn't I ask you to accompany the concubine back to the house? Why are you here?"
"I'm here to see what the princess is busy with!"
Xuanyuan Yi closed his eyes and didn't look at Lin Wanru.
I didn't take Xuanyuan Yi seriously, so I naturally didn't care.
But in another carriage, Shangguan Yue'er clenched her fists when she heard Xuanyuan Yi's voice.
"Lin Wanru, I have just entered the palace, and the prince is already so biased towards you, whether it is the emperor or the prince, why? Why? Obviously I am the eldest daughter of the Duke's palace, and you are just the daughter of a warrior. Why on earth is this? ?Why?"
General's Mansion.
Early in the morning, Lin’s father, Lin Mu, dressed up carefully and waited.
I know that King Yan will come to the house today.
Aunt Qiao dressed up Lin Wanqing beautifully from top to bottom.
Lin Wanru had been in love with Xuanyuan Yi for a long time, and she was finally able to meet him. She was so excited that she couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Aunt Qiao held her daughter's hand tightly, winked and signaled,
Everyone was looking outside the front hall.
"Dad, mother..."
Lin Wanru's clear voice came.
The first person to run out the door to greet her was Lin Wanqing.
Xuanyuan Yi followed Lin Wanru.
"Greetings to my father-in-law and mother-in-law."
"Your Majesty, please come in quickly."
During the whole process, Xuanyuan Yi did not notice Lin Wanqing, who was dressed up in a gorgeous dress.
The family only focused on chatting and had already prepared delicious food.
"Come, come, come, prepare a little wine, and ask the prince to please you."
"Where is it?" Xuanyuan Yi changed his previous coldness and responded to Father Lin politely.
Lin Wanru asked very uncomfortably: "Hey, you took the wrong medicine today. If you talk like this, I don't even recognize you!"
"Wanru, why are you talking to your husband? King Yan is just being polite, how can you be so unreasonable?"
Mother Lin quickly gave Lin Wanru a lesson.
"Mother-in-law, it's okay. This is the way we communicate as husband and wife."
Xuanyuan Yi glared at Lin Wanru and said with a stiff smile on his face.
Lin Wanru stepped on Xuanyuan Yi's feet directly under the table.
Although it hurt, Xuanyuan Yi endured it and continued drinking.
Aunt Qiao quickly touched Lin Wanqing with her arm and gave her a look.
Lin Wanqing quickly picked up the wine glass and said to King Yan: "His Royal Highness, King Yan, has come all the way. On behalf of my father, I would like to propose a toast to you."
Xuanyuan Yi picked up the wine glass, nodded and drank it in one gulp.
Seeing Lin Wanqing's hair so beautifully decorated, she looked at her for a few seconds before looking away.
In fact, Xuanyuan Yi just doesn't quite understand that Lin Wanru, as her sister, doesn't bother to dress up at all, and even doesn't want to wear accessories on her head.
This sister really wanted to have Zhu Luo jade ornaments on her head. The contrast made Xuanyuan Yi feel sad.
And this glance, in Aunt Qiao's eyes, she really felt that King Yan was interested in Lin Wanqing.
Lin Wanqing also felt that King Yan still remembered her at this glance.
