Two people were passionately hugging each other on the porch. Outside the courtyard door, Xiu Yuanshuang's face was deathly pale. Did she already not avoid anyone like this? How could a girl from a good home be as flippant as her? Even if it was a husband and wife, they couldn't be bothered to be intimate with each other in front of others, it was already impressive if they just shook hands. But the two of them were actually so tired of each other in front of their servants!
She gritted her teeth and retreated back to her yard. Glancing at the flowers on the wall, he frowned and ordered Qiu Wen: "Clean those things up."
Qiu Wen was a little hesitant: "Master, it was left behind by the prince. If someday he comes …"
Xiu Yuanshuang closed her eyes and revealed a gloomy smile: "He will not come back."
Qiu Wen knew that the scene just now had made her master feel bad, and she snorted, "That Bai Qianfan really can't tell, a fox like her who doesn't even move towards a man, and the Prime Minister's girl, he has no rules at all."
Her words made Xiu Yuanshuang even more depressed, "Forget it, let's not talk about her anymore. Have you finished preparing the materials? "
"I'm ready, the top grade Green Deer Skin is still soft." Qiu Wen said: "Master, if Your Highness receives this birthday gift, who knows how happy she will be. My master has put in great effort, how could Your Highness not know that if in the future you go out to battle, wearing Master's Wula Boots, you will also think of Master."
Xiu Yuanshuang laughed bitterly: "Don't comfort me, I am not in his eyes, and the things I give him are naturally not in his eyes, I am just doing something for myself."
"Mistress," Qiu Wen saw her gloomy look and could not help but feel anxious, "Your kindness, Prince, is in your heart. Otherwise, would you still be in charge of the Inner Palace?"
Xiu Yuanshuang could only rely on this to comfort herself. Hearing her say that, she smiled and stepped into the house.
July 18th was the Prince Chu's birthday. He did not like the liveliness, but a few of his subordinates who were on good terms with him jeered at him, wanting to drink and eat his longevity noodles. He had no choice but to agree.
Morong Gan was not too enthusiastic about their birthdays, but this year, there was a new person in the manor who joined him, and in his heart, he also had a small wish. He wanted to eat a bowl of longevity noodles with Bai Qianfan after the banquet had ended, so he was very satisfied after listening to the little girl's words.
There was more than just one new person in the manor, at this time, Morong Gan had a sense of propriety and ordered his people to give him a life time packet for Moon Reaching Pavilion and Fallen Star Pavilion.
If one were to say who in this house was truly forgotten by the Prince Chu, then it would be only Gu Qingdie. She rarely came out, and didn't look for or find Bai Qianfan. Although she did not go out, she was well-informed. Prince Chu asked her to send the birthday bag to the backyard, as she was the only one who was missing this piece of information.
"Master, they don't even put you in their eyes. Although you are an imperial concubine, you are still an honest concubine after all, and I see that the prince remembers you in his heart. His subordinate's eyes are still shallow, and seeing that the prince does not come to the Jade Lotus Pavilion often, he dares to disrespect you.
"No need to go," Gu Qingdie shot her a glance, "I'm not even angry, what's there to be angry about? I don't want any longevity pouches, I don't want any. I'm not like that other person, marrying in is to make up for the lack of money, my family background isn't that high, to be able to be a concubine for your highness is already like climbing a high branch, I'm satisfied. I live in this Jade Lotus Pavilion and live in peace with my life. The one who should be angry is that person. I listen to it every day as if it were a western view, and I am happy in my heart. "
Hearing her words, Zi Qiao was a little surprised, but she looked at her carefully. The Miss was not like this before, everything was placed on her face, but now she knew how to hide her true personality. Indeed, only by being forced would one be able to grow.
"Mistress, your thoughts are correct, but it's not a good thing for the prince to not come. Let's think about it further, a man is someone who likes the new and hates the old, he might not be able to rely on the old, and we can only rely on the child. As long as you have it, we aren't afraid of the prince marrying a new wife in the courtyard."
"You can't be impatient to eat hot tofu," Gu Qingdie snorted coldly, "Just watch, there will be people who will not be able to endure even without us."
"That person's life was indeed uncomfortable. In the past, she was still cocky in front of us, but now she can't be cocky anymore, right? Everyone says that seeing her is not annoying, and since the two courtyards are so close together, it's impossible that she doesn't want to see them. We better stay here, the scenery is good, and there's nothing bad about it." However, the Prince is in the Residence every day, and if she were to make a move, I'm afraid she won't be able to find an opportunity. "
"The opportunity will come soon," Gu Qingdie said slowly. "At the end of the month, the emperor will be touring and the prince will definitely accompany him. If he were to do this, it would at least take ten days or half a month.
Zi Qiao smirked, "That's great. Let them bite and kill, we'll all enjoy the benefits. When Prince gets angry, you'll know what's good for you, Master. "
Hao Pingguan was so busy holding his birthday feast that his feet didn't even touch the ground. Although he was a rogue cultivator and didn't have many guests, he still put in all his effort to take care of them, in case he lost the etiquette of Prince Chu Palace.
Hearing that his underling had only gifted him Moon Reaching Pavilion and Moon Reaching Pavilion, he opened his eyes wide and cursed, "You don't need to have a brain, isn't the person living in the Jade Lotus Pavilion the master? "Hurry up and make it up."
The servant looked wronged, "Your highness only mentioned Moon Reaching Pavilion and Fallen Star Pavilion. Since you didn't mention the Jade Lotus Pavilion, I wouldn't dare to act rashly without Master's permission."
Hearing that, Hao Pingguan knew that Morong Gan had forgotten about Gu Qingdie, and today, Gu Qingdie's father would come too. If he knew that Miss Gu Qingdie had suffered such grievances in the manor, he would not know what to think, because he was a loyal servant, and his master's share of the worries was just an internal matter. He could not let such negligence slip, so he called for the manager to go ahead and gave some instructions, and he himself headed towards Huailin Pavilion.
Morong Gan was a diligent prince, even though today was his birthday, his government never dropped, no matter how it was usually, or how it was going to be today. When Hao Pingguan arrived, he was busy in the study room.
Hao Pingguan remained silent and bowed, "Your highness, the matters in the front courtyard have been prepared, do you want to take a look?"
Morong Gan didn't even raise his head, "Is a guest coming?"
"Yes, Minister Zhou, Minister Zhang. Minister Su has arrived and is drinking tea in front of us."
Morong Gan acknowledged, "I will be there in a moment. Prince Su and Master Zhang are both here, two tables should not be enough, prepare two more tables, since all the guests are here, it is not good to be rude."
"Yes, this servant will remember," Hao Pingguan hesitated for a moment, then said: "Duke, I heard that you sent people to deliver the birthday pouches to the Moon Reaching Pavilion, then the Jade Lotus Pavilion …"
Morong Gan was startled, and raised his head. He knew that Bai Qianfan loved to eat buns, which was why he remembered the Moon Reaching Pavilion pellet. Simply giving it away did not seem like a good thing, which was why he added Fallen Star Pavilion to it.
"This King has forgotten. Get someone to make up for it."
"Yes, your servant will send someone to deliver it now."
Morong Gan put down his brush. "Where's the wangfei?"
Hao Pingguan thought, I'm so busy in the front yard, how would I know!
He bent his waist and answered: "Princess Wang is about within the Moon Reaching Pavilion. I told Yue Xiang that the Mizar Peak was to set up a table in the front courtyard and that there would be more people there.
Morong Gan thought for a moment, then said, "You can go tell the wangfei that I can't be free at noon, I'll go see her later, and eat longevity noodles with her."
Hao Pingguan acknowledged, and turned to go.
