Concubine Xian asked softly, "What do you think of the maid serving beside Wen Wan?"
Aunt Guo shook her head, "When I got to the palace, I practiced calligraphy and read books every day, and didn't do anything else. And my attitude has not changed at all from before? Madam, what on earth is this gentle princess thinking?" Aunt Guo has been in the palace for so many years, and she still hasn't done anything else. Never seen such a person. It is truly called being unfazed. The emperor had done it so obviously, and Princess Siyue's performance was also very clear, but she seemed stunned as if she didn't know what to do, and she didn't change her strategy at all.
"What is this child thinking about?" Concubine Xian responded to Wen Wan's silence without even a hint of jealousy or resentment. She was puzzled. How is this possible? There is no way she doesn't care about the emperor's love for her. Studying by myself, I thought about what went wrong.
"Yes, Princess Wenwan was much favored when Princess Siyue didn't come. Now that the emperor is gradually neglecting her, she is still the same as before, as if she doesn't care at all. It seems that Princess Wenwan's palace is better than ours It¡¯s even higher than expected.¡± Grandma Guo also started to worry.
Concubine Xian stood in the yard and said softly, "There are only two reasons for being so indifferent. One is that she really doesn't care, and the other is that she is absolutely sure that the emperor's love for her will never go away. If it is the former one, it can be proved She is indeed a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune, but if a child of ten is indifferent to fame and fortune, no one will believe it. That leaves the last one. She believes that the emperor will not neglect him. This child is indeed smarter than I thought. Even smarter."
Aunt Guo couldn't understand, "Who in the palace can guarantee that the emperor will always be pampered and pampered by him? Is this gentle princess too confident?"
Concubine Xian took off a bunch of agate beads from her wrist. Code it one by one. After finishing the circle, she said, "She has planted a mark in the emperor's heart and established a selfless image in front of the people of the world. No matter what, the emperor will not be indifferent to her. If she competes with Siyue for favor, she will fall behind. . It goes without saying that the higher Siyue reaches, the more aloof and arrogant she becomes. Unexpectedly, I almost fell into trouble."
Aunt Guo smiled bitterly, "It's true to hear what the empress said. Princess Wen Wan is only ten years old this year. Where did she get so many thoughts? It's even worse than the imperial concubines back then. She is really perfect. Weird."
Concubine Xian circled the beads back into her hand and said, "Siyue. You are no match for her. Wenwan is indeed smart! However, I want to see if you are really as smart as your grandmother. I hope you will not disappoint me." ¡±
Prince Zheng¡¯s Mansion
"Your Majesty, this is very detrimental to us. Can you please persuade the princess not to be so stubborn. She should take the initiative to please the emperor." Shen Jian looked at the good situation, and because of some of Wen Wan's quirks, And many people avoided it. Somewhat noisy.
In the past, many people were kind to Prince Zheng because of Princess Wenwan's favor. But now I see the emperor pampering King Zhao in the previous court, and the harem hurting Siyue. Those who were waiting and watching stopped, and those who had made things difficult before became even more aggressive. The situation is against the prince. Very disadvantageous.
King Zheng thought about it for a long time and finally dropped the matter. He wants to find Wen Wan in such a hurry. It's really a shame. Things haven't come to this yet. Father wouldn't just say he doesn't like what Wen Wan does and he doesn't like it. Needless to say, Wen Wan's original wealth was not given to the treasury, but to his father. This is a very different place. This kind of filial piety, as long as she doesn't make a big mistake, Wen Wan will never be rejected and alienated by her father.
Xia Yu was worried and took the initiative to say a few words. Wen Wan didn't say anything, just remained silent. What does this mean? Let yourself fight and fight with Siyue. What to fight for? Competing for the favor of the emperor's grandfather, one is the granddaughter. One is a granddaughter. The palms and backs of my hands are full of flesh, and the pain is the same everywhere. There is nothing to argue about. And that stuff. It¡¯s nature, and you can¡¯t fight for it.
Wait for Wenwan to see King Zheng again. He took the initiative to talk about it.
"Uncle, it is impossible for me to change my principles of behavior because of other people's opinions. Uncle, everything can be discussed, but issues of principle cannot be discussed. In that case, I will no longer be myself. Uncle, I know you What do you want? Although it seems like this now, I hope that my uncle can understand that in everything, you must not rush for quick success, but you must do what you have to do, and no matter what the future holds, you must do it well. Say more, uncle, you are really bad as a staff member. You are eager for quick success and too impatient. You should find a stable and reliable staff member. "Such an impatient and unstable staff member is not very useful." good. Even Xia Ying felt it.
Wen Wan is not a fool, and she doesn¡¯t think Xia Yu would be so restless. Unlike Xia Ying, Xia Yu never interferes with her affairs except to take care of herself. On weekdays, you just do your part. she can speakIf you take the initiative to ask yourself, you must be ordered by someone. Wen Wan knew that if it was King Zheng's intention, it would be Xia Ying who should speak, not Xia Yu. So Wen Wan asked Xia Yu and was very unhappy when she got the news. There was no mercy at all this time, and the essence was judged very sharply.
"Of course uncle knows. However, good staff are not that hard to find." King Zheng just smiled and nodded.
King Zheng did not explain the reason to Wen Wan. But Wen Wan roughly guessed that this staff might be used like this for the time being, and if they look for new, powerful ones, they probably won't be able to find them in a short time. If the nest is not filled with enough, don't dare to use it. Who knows if it was a spy sent by the other party. Later, Wen Wan realized that this was not the case at all.
This is a cautious attitude. At this sensitive moment, it is better to be vigilant. Otherwise, it would be a huge disaster. Therefore, it must be handled properly and carefully.
Wen Wan looked at Prince Zheng who looked tired and felt a little uneasy. Busy said that he should pay attention to his health and never get tired. Take good care of your body, as your body is the capital of your business. You should protect your body at all times and let those around you pay attention too. I also specially wrote a lot of precautions.
That look of concern and worry made Xia Ying give instructions to his entourage. King Zheng was both amused and moved when he saw it. This girl, with her tone, she thought she was his grandma, or to be exaggerated, she thought she was his mother! It was very wordy, but I still felt warm in my heart, so I smiled and agreed.
Imperial Palace, Yanghe Hall
"Grandpa Huang, look, Sister Wen Wan is usually so plain. She doesn't even have a beautiful bracelet. She must have no good jewelry. Grandpa Huang, you are rich all over the world, can you bear to see Sister Wen Wan like this?" Pulling the emperor to act coquettishly fully expressed his friendship.
Wen Wan shook her head and made a few strokes to express that she didn¡¯t like wearing jewelry. She still has a lot of valuable jewelry at home, but she is still observing filial piety, and she is really not willing to wear these heavy things.
"You have sold all the jewelry your mother left for you. It's time for me to buy some more jewelry for you. Come and ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send a batch of the first jewelry made." The emperor immediately shouted. In the past few months, the emperor often rewarded Wen Wan with many valuable and fine jewelry, but Wen Wan didn't wear any of them. The reason is simple: her grandmother has not yet completed her filial piety. Therefore, the clothes she wears are usually plain and light. Although the emperor said it several times, seeing Wen Wan insisting, he didn't say it again. The emperor could restrain himself in this way and keep the rules and regulations for that undisciplined grandmother. When the emperor saw it, he liked this pure and filial child even more.
Wen Wan wanted to stop him, but seeing the emperor like this, he had to swallow his words. She really didn't want it.
It was very small, so she came over with a few mahogany lacquer plates and took off the red cloth on them. Although Wen Wan was not a woman who liked jewelry, she was still dazzled by it. It is no exaggeration to say that the jewelry here is exquisite and beautiful.
"Sister Wen Wan, you choose first." Siyue looked straight at the ruby ????phoenix jade pendant without blinking. I secretly prayed that Wen Wan would never choose this jade pendant.
Wen Wan looked at a string of pearls, a black pearl bracelet. The black pearls were full, and the most rare ones were about the same size. This natural color black pearl is already hard to find, and there are eighteen pearls of the same size, which is a rare opportunity. Seeing Siyue say this, naturally she didn't give in. With such a good thing, it¡¯s better to strike first.
After taking it, I put it on my hand and it fit perfectly. Wen Wan was very happy after seeing it. It seemed to be tailor-made for her. Not to mention Xia Ying, even the emperor knew that Wen Wan liked jade ornaments and pearls. Because in comparison, Wenwan really rarely wears jewelry made of gold, silver, and gemstones.
Holding it gently in your hand, you can¡¯t put it down. Rubbing them one by one, I couldn't hide the smile on my face. As a girl, who doesn¡¯t like jewelry? And Wenwan¡¯s favorite things are pearls and jade ornaments. She usually only wears these two, gold and silver as well, but usually only wears them when she goes out to be a guest, and takes them off as soon as she gets home. Now that she has chosen such a good arm, can she not be happy?
After finishing the selection, it was Siyue's turn to choose. Siyue immediately took the most dazzling, exquisite and precious ruby ??phoenix jade pendant in her hand and couldn't put it down. Originally, the emperor wanted Siyue to choose a few items and leave the rest to Wen Wan. Wen Wan shook her head, indicating that the two of them were half of each other. In the end, the two of them divided the jewelry in half.
Wen Wan was very satisfied, but after Siyue finished reading her side, she looked at Wen Wan eagerly for a while. It was a bit annoying to look like that, but he probably knew that enough was enough and didn't say anything more. Wen Wan looked at more than a dozen pieces of jewelry. After taking them back, there was nothing except the black string.The pearl is worn on the left hand. All other jewelry is locked in the box. (To be continued)
