Chapter 1014: Once unfaithful, a lifetime of disloyalty!
Li Lao'er saw his niece's expression was not good and thought she was scared, so he quickly comforted her.
"Don't be afraid, Fu Niuer. Our family won't get involved in these things. We will stay out of it and there will be no trouble. But you, you have to be careful when you live in the palace. If it is not urgent news, don't send it home, otherwise you will be caught!"
Jiayin nodded blankly, reluctantly regaining his thoughts, and gave the same instructions, "Second uncle, you must remember. No matter who recommends the second prince to be the prince, you should not interfere with it, just follow the emperor's will.
“In addition, due to the villainous behavior of Marquis Dingbei, once he hugs Uncle Huang’s thigh, he may take revenge on our family and Mr. Wen. The family still needs to deal with it in advance and take precautions.”
Li Laoer and Mr. Wen both nodded.
Mr. Wen even said, "In the past few years, I have been on guard against him using tricks behind his back, so I have been collecting evidence of his crimes. It would be fine if he is safe and sound, but if he dares to think wrong, he will definitely not end well." .
"Besides, one act of disloyalty lasts a lifetime. Even if he turns against the Queen Mother's camp and changes his position to the Emperor's sect, such a disloyal and unjust villain will not be reused or trusted by the Emperor."
Jiayin also knew this and was reluctantly relieved.
After chatting a few more words, Jiayin went back to sleep.
Getting up early the next day, she changed into a coarse cloth dress and followed the village chief for a walk in the fields.
It is a certainty that the drought will reduce production this year.
No one can control God, so we have no choice but to carry water for irrigation.
Fortunately, the people in the village are diligent and have hired many day laborers nearby.
An ox-cart pulled the bucket to the field, and then manpower carried it into the field and poured the gourdfuls of water under the roots of the melon seedlings. It was really hard work.
Jiayin told the village chief, "Don't be stingy with the wages, and provide a lunch at noon."
The village chief responded quickly, "Don't worry, Princess. The wages are higher than elsewhere, and the lunch is meat and vegetable, so I won't lose anything."
"The weather is not good this year. I am afraid that there will be nothing in the fields in the autumn, so I hope to earn some wages to supplement the family income. We also come from hard times, how can we treat others harshly!"
Jiayin was relieved. He looked up at the dazzling sunshine and felt a little worried.
“We have had good weather for so many years, but why is there a drought this year?”
The village chief was open-minded, pulled on his straw hat to fan the wind, and said with a smile, "It's normal for God to have such a bad temper year after year. The past few years of good weather have shown mercy, and we don't dare to be greedy.
"Besides, the food collected from the Hot Spring Valley is enough for our village to feed us for three years, so we are not afraid, and the princess does not need to worry."
"Okay, it's okay if the village chief grandpa has something to worry about. Our family can't live in the village permanently for the time being, so he won't have to worry about things in and outside the village." Jiayin saluted the village chief sincerely, causing the village chief to hurry up. Help her up.
"What did the princess say? This is my home, everyone's home! Who doesn't care about their own affairs? It's all right!"
The wrinkles on the village chief's face are much deeper than before, and his complexion is tanned, but his smile is still as bright as ever.
Jiayin was no longer polite and said, "Over at the medicine shop, I asked someone to brew a few jars of medicinal wine. Remember to take it home. You and Grandpa Zhao each have a jar. Drink a cup every night to relieve fatigue and relieve illness. ”
“Okay,” the village chief was even more happy and said with a smile, “This is good stuff, thank you very much, Princess.”
The old man and the young man chatted a few more words, and then they went back to their old house, changed their clothes, and prepared to go back to the city.
Wan'er took care of some trivial matters, because a family in the village would marry a daughter-in-law tomorrow and begged her to stay as host and guest, so she could not go back to the city with her sister-in-law.
So, she asked, "Sister, Dad Cai and Mr. Wen were walking in a hurry just now and forgot two boxes of things that the Lu family entrusted the convoy to bring back. If you are on the way, can you deliver them to Prince Lu?" Jiayin hesitated. After a while, her brothers at home were gone, and there was really no one else who could help except her.
“Okay, sister-in-law, let me load it into the car. After I enter the city, I will go to the front of Lu’s house.”
Soon, everything was packed, Jiayin hugged her chubby nephew and got in the car.
In Xindulu, in the Lu family's mansion, the chief steward Lu Feng was talking to the prince.
"Your Majesty, are you going to let these rumors go unchecked? Do you want me to send someone to deal with them?"
Lu Zong shook his head and extended his hand to ask the butler to sit down.
Although the butler is now taking care of the chores in the mansion, he is actually his seniority and is indeed his distant cousin.
"Sixth brother, don't worry about it. I have my own thoughts on this matter. Just take care of the house and ignore the rest." Lu Zong raised his hand to pour a cup of tea for the housekeeper and asked smoothly, "There is news from home. ?"
"No, Your Majesty. Counting the days, the Li family's motorcade will be back soon. Maybe the family will entrust the Li family to carry the letter."
As soon as the housekeeper responded, the boy guarding the door came to report the news, "Your Majesty, Princess Kangle has sent someone to report. She will come to visit you in a princess's carriage soon."
Princess? !
Lu Zong stood up suddenly, walked quickly out for two steps, then turned around and called the waiter to find him a new gown.
As a result, the boy found the clothes, and he changed his mind again, "No, there is no need to change. I have been surrounded by rumors these days. I should be more downtrodden. Dressing neatly seems to be a pretense."
After saying that, he asked the butler, "Hurry and prepare tea. The tea should be lighter and the snacks should be our southwestern style..."
However, the housekeeper didn't seem to hear it, and instead chased away the young man and the young man.
When only the two of them were left in the room, the housekeeper lowered his head and saluted and said, "Your Majesty, the person coming is Princess Kangle, not the third princess! You can't do this..."
Lu Zong was stunned in place, the light in his eyes extinguished little by little.
After a long time, he responded, "I understand, please step back."
The housekeeper stepped back, closed the door tightly, and then stood guard outside the door...
The third princess's carriage was a gift from the emperor last year. Not only the two-horse carriage, the carriage was also very gorgeously decorated. As she walked by, it attracted the attention of many people.
Jiayin was sitting in the car, stopping occasionally and listening to the lively chatter of people outside, so he made up his mind not to get off the carriage.
Arriving at the door of Lu's house, Lu Zong came out to greet him soon after.
Jiayin opened the window, waved to him, and called in a low voice, "Brother Lu, come up and talk!"
Lu Zong glanced at the idle people in the distance, guessed what was going on, then walked down the steps, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Why are the princess's sisters here? And she took the princess's car?"
Jiayin sighed and shrugged helplessly, "Don't mention it, it's just a story."
Lu Zong couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and suggested, "Go in and have a cup of tea?"
"No, Brother Lu." Jiayin pointed to the veteran carrying boxes behind the car and said, "The convoy that sent my brother to the southwest has returned, and your family has brought you two boxes of things. My brothers are not at home, so I can Help was delivered.”
“Your fleet is really amazing! It’s such a long journey, but it’s back so quickly!” Lu Zong was surprised, his face full of surprise, and he praised him smoothly.
