The lights in the palace were still bright, but the door was now closed.
The steward Haizhu personally stood guard at the young master's door. Even Fu An was expelled. Tonight was his home court. In the palace, he was the steward.
The servants all went to rest, and the four of them, Mei Lan, Zhu Ju, also returned to the guest room, but the remaining women also gathered around and everyone began to whisper.
"Boss, have you dedicated yourself to the young master?"
One of the women with foxy eyebrows asked in a low voice.
"Hey, it's useless to talk about it. The four of us have been with the young master for five months, and we have returned to Zhao intact."
"Ah? How could this happen? Could it be that the young master is not good at anything?"
"There's something wrong. On the day of the prince and princess' wedding, we knew that the prince was very strong in some aspects, but the young lady was limping even the next day."
Mei Niang sighed and said: "It's not that the prince is incompetent, it's that the prince is too dedicated and leaves all his love to the princess."
"Such a good man can probably only belong to the princess."
Lan Ji smiled and said: "But if this is the case, it will be enough for the princess to bear."
"Giggle..." All the girls covered their mouths and laughed.
"We should share our responsibilities for the princess."
"Yes, that's right..."
A touch of red appeared in the eastern sky, and the red morning glow dyed the city of Chang'an red.
The butler Haizhu stayed up all night and was still in high spirits. Today is the day when the prince returns. As the prince's butler, he should guard everything in the house for the prince.
"The sun is out, and these damn lazy pigs haven't gotten up yet. Do you still want your bonus?"
"Humph, they are all spoiled by the prince and princess. Tell me, whose slaves and servants in this world sleep until they wake up naturally?"
At this time, Fu An yawned and walked past Haizhu's eyes like a zombie.
"Good morning, old pig!"
"Good morning, sister, as the young master's bodyguard, this is what you do to protect me. Your bonus this month is gone!" Hai Zhu said with a dark face.
"It's embarrassing, it's so embarrassing. You usually brag about how powerful you are, but in the end it's all in vain?"
This guy was such an embarrassment to the men of Prince Shu. As the young master's personal bodyguard, he was beaten up by the prince's four maids.
Fu An's eyes widened. How did Lao Zhu know about this?
Damn it, those four women are so abominable that they didn’t abide by the agreement?
Okay, I will play with you. I will tell the princess right now that you four have no good intentions.
"Butler, it's not that I'm not good, it's just that I don't hit women, do you understand?"
Haizhu stretched the corners of his mouth: "Cut..."
Fu An rolled his eyes and disappeared in front of Hai Zhu in an instant.
Haizhu stood in the yard, scolding the servants and slaves who had just woken up, but everyone was used to it. This pig housekeeper was a sharp-tongued man, saying that his monthly bonuses were gone, but in the end he was paid In place.
The slaves hurried to do what they should do, chop wood, feed the horses, fetch water...
The servants hurriedly boiled water and prepared things for the prince and princess to wash, and the cook was also busy making breakfast...
Everything is in order.
Just wait for the prince and princess to get up.
At three o'clock in the morning, all kinds of things had been prepared, but the prince and princess did not get up.
The personal maid Qingxiu wanted to wake up the prince and princess, but was severely scolded by Hai Zhu.
There is no visible thing.
Finally, it was noon.
Someone came to the palace, and the prince personally brought the valuables in the palace to convey His Majesty's will.
Your Majesty said that he would like to have lunch with the prince at noon today.
But when Wang De came to the Shu Palace, he was immediately dumbfounded. What time was it? It was almost noon, and the prince and princess were still sleeping?
Wang De's expression was very strange, and Haizhu next to him kept smiling.
"My prince didn't sleep until dawn, and the princess didn't sleep all night last night. Young man, is it okay to sleep a little longer?"
Wang De raised his thumb and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really awesome."
"However, this old slave is here to convey the decree. This missed the time. Isn't it hard for me to explain to His Majesty?"
Wang De was also anxious, His Majesty was still waiting for him in the palace!
"My lord, you don't know something. Since my wedding, my lord has gone to Longxi for the sake of the court and the Tang Dynasty. Then the Battle of Tuyuhun broke out. Tuyuhun was destroyed, and he also attacked the Gaochang Kingdom in the Western Regions... …”
"The young couple miss each other every day, but they can't see each other. They have been married for half a year, and they haven't even announced the happy event yet. Do you think the emperor in the palace is in a hurry?"
Wang De was a rootless person, and he had never thought of these things. After Hai Zhu's reminder, he suddenly realized it.
This matter is more important than inviting His Highness into the palace.
The emperor and his ladies, including the emperor, all miss his grandson like crazy. There is an excuse for this, hehehe...
"Come and have tea..."
Haizhu smiled and said: "Today's lunch of mutton chops and beef soup. Your Majesty, please stay and have a good meal. You also have to travel around for His Majesty. It's quite hard."
"Old pig still understands us! Drink tea, drink tea..."
Finally, the sun hung above everyone's heads. Li Ke opened his eyes slightly and slept comfortably.
After waking up, she found that Li Shuwan was like an octopus, clinging to her tightly and still sleeping soundly.
Suddenly, Li Shuwan was awakened. After opening her eyes, she asked drowsily: "What time is it now?"
"Hey...why does the sun shine on that place today?"
After a moment, Li Shuwan instantly understood that it was already noon?
"It's terrible... Your Majesty, I have no shame in living..."
As Li Shuwan said this, she began to get dressed in a hurry. After a while, she was fully dressed.
Then, she called her personal maid, with an angry look on her face: "Qingxiu, what's the matter with you?"
"Why don't you wake me up? Look at what time it is. The prince is here today. He should have entered the palace to pay his respects to you ladies."
Qingxiu looked aggrieved. Do you think this slave doesn't want to disturb you?
The Pig Butler is like a door god. No matter where he stands, even if the King of Heaven comes, no one will dare to disturb you.
"The butler ordered us not to disturb the prince and you!"
Li Ke sat on the bed, looking at Li Shuwan's panic, holding back a bad smile.
"Shu Wan, okay, aren't you just going to pay your respects? With me here, what are you worried about?"
"The king will take care of this for you."
"My lord, please get up quickly!"
Li Ke stretched out: "Okay..."
After Li Ke finished washing, he came to the living room and saw the prince. The prince had a flattering smile on his face: "Your Majesty, your Majesty has decreed that you should come to the palace for lunch today at noon."
Li Ke looked up at the sun in confusion and said with a smile: "I am too tired and overslept. I also asked my father-in-law to report to my father that I would like to have dinner with him."
"Yes, I'm taking my leave, old slave."
Wang De walked a few steps, turned around and whispered: "The King of Yue also returned to the palace this morning. His Majesty said that after the Queen recovers from her illness, a family banquet will be held. It seems that the princes will be assessed at the family banquet."
Li Ke pondered, and after a moment, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work, old pig. You send me off to my father-in-law."
"I am also leaving for the palace."
"The old slave is in the palace, waiting for the arrival of the prince."
