Wei Guohou said that he was kind, but the eldest princess was a little unhappy. She felt awkward and uncomfortable when she thought that her daughter would call someone a mother.

She is anxious to let her daughter learn all the etiquette and rules, and the educating knowledge of royal ladies, she can't wait for it to happen quickly.

It's as if Mingzhu learned these things and could wipe out her decades of experience of being taken into captivity and living outside, but kept by her side all the time.

"You are her biological mother, no one can pass you." Wei Guohou said softly and comforted, "Don't think too much, I will talk with Yinghuan."

Seeing his wife nodded in agreement, but could not let go of her face, Wei Guohou sighed inwardly. Sometimes the woman's thoughts cannot be soothed in a few words. I just hope that she can not care too much about her daughter's face.

Princess Zhaohua was indeed worried that her daughter would be irritated with her because of this, but after two days, seeing that Xiao Han had lost her temper on that day, and her attitude towards her remained the same, she was relieved again. That idea of ​​worry also disappeared without a trace.

The grandmother beside me also persuaded, "The princess is the flesh and blood of your pregnancy in October, and the blood is connected to the heart. Who else should you not kiss?"

The worries of the eldest princess seem to be useless to others. Although the princess has been raised by the rich merchant house for more than ten years, how can it be compared with the status of the noble parents and the royal princess. In the future, he must have stayed in Beijing for a long time, and he was worried that the princess's heart would be overwhelmed by others.

When Princess Zhaohua heard this, a faint smile appeared on her face, and she felt that she had acted too hastily these days, and she was too anxious to recover. It was just an accident at the beginning, and now her daughter can't be taken away.

It's the fifteenth day when I go to Daci Temple to offer incense and pay my vow.

In the past, the princess took Qi Lingyan away. This time there were not only new princesses who came back, but also the elder son and the second son. It was Wei Guohou who asked them to take care of some mothers and younger sisters.

The incense of the Daci Temple is prosperous, and it is said that the Buddha's light shines, attracting many dignitaries in Beijing. Even Princess Zhaohua is also a frequent visitor there.

This time because it was to find her daughter, the eldest princess even added a lot of incense to the temple and spread a lot of good fortune.

She also pulled Xiao Han and said, "Thanks to the Bodhisattva's blessing, let you come back to me in peace."

Xiao Han smiled and didn't say anything. Her peace was not obtained by the blessing of the Bodhisattva.

For gods and Buddhas, Xiao Han will respect one or two, but he will not pin his hopes on such vague beliefs.

...

The eldest princess sat on the soft sedan chair for half a day to go up the mountain. She was also a little tired, and lay on the couch to rest for a while.

Qi Lingyan seemed to be experienced, while talking to the monks who received them, he instructed the servants and maidservants to clean up the monastery.

The eldest princess’s Luan driving is very eye-catching. On days like the fifteenth day of the fifteenth day, many dignitaries and wives in Daci Temple will worship the Buddha. It is impossible to greet the eldest princess.

It was heard that the eldest princess had recognized her mother-in-law. During this time, there was a lot of discussion in Beijing, and no one knew about this incident, but the princess had never seen her face.

Because of Wei Guohou’s fierce skills, some noble ladies dared not mutter anything, but they believed the rumors in their hearts. The princess was afraid that he grew up in the countryside and did not understand the upbringing rules in Beijing. That’s why the princess was the eldest princess. I didn't dare to let her appear in front of others, even the queen mother and concubines in the palace hadn't seen her.

Uncle Xuanwu and his party, the two concubines of Mrs. Zhang San also inquired out and secretly to her, "You have seen the princess, what is the appearance and temperament of the princess Mingzhu? Tell us too."

They were still puzzled before, how did the third daughter-in-law cling to a noble person like the eldest princess, but when the news from the princess mansion came out, and even your majesty rewarded the third master of Xuanwu Uncle Mansion, this The official position mentioned it again, and everything became clear. It's just that the jealousy is so enviable that the third family is really lucky. Even if you go to that poor country and remote place, you can run into such a great opportunity to let the princess mansion bear her love.

As a result, the status of Sanfang in the Hou's Mansion was immediately elevated, and even they had to indulge in one or two to the third daughter-in-law, so that they could climb into the eldest princess. The wives of these women who marry as women are only looking forward to the husband’s appointment of officials, the son to be a good man, and the daughter to find a good marriage. And these things they dream of, some are just a word from Princess Zhaohua.

They didn't dare to directly ask Jingzhong if the rumors were true, they just wanted to attack them.

Mrs. Zhang San was more cautious and said with a smile, "The princess is naturally noble, and naturally it is not comparable to ordinary people."

This Wanjinyou's answer was disappointing for others and it was not easy to refute.

When Mrs. Zhang San saw the ceremonial entourage of the eldest princess, she wanted to visit her, but she saw that many of the noble ladies who had a higher family status than her passed by, and she was there. I am afraid that the eldest princess has no time to entertain her. Don't move up.

Princess Zhaohua can send some people away at will, but some can't ignore it, such as Mrs. Kang Guogong, Princess Anjun and so on.

"Why didn't you see the princess?"

Regarding the seniority of the Princess Anjun, Princess Zhaohua had to call her an aunt. She smiled a little awkwardly, "I was here just now, she is lively, unlike Ling Yan who is willing to speak with us, so she went out for a walk."

It is one thing to be filial to the eldest princess, but Xiao Han has no patience to accompany these noble ladies, and then he is scrutinized, criticized or praised or lamented.

No matter how noble the status is, their standards for women are nothing more than women, women, women, virtues and merits.

Xiao Han would not deny them contemptuously. After all, she had been educated for a long time. Even the eldest princess knew that she could hardly change anything, and changes may not necessarily be a good thing. The eldest princess has long been used to it, and she is living well, isn't she.

Xiao Han felt guilty towards the princess, and he also had a certain tolerance, but the princess Zhaohua might not understand much.

For example, what she imagined is that an ordinary mother raises her daughter, brings her to chat and talks, and slowly teaches her about the rules and relations between the royal family and nobles, and how to handle the housekeeping affairs and so on. It happened that the daughter didn't care about these things, making the princess distressed, and she didn't want to meet people even in normal social interactions. How could she build her reputation?

Mrs. Kang Guogong, who had a handkerchief with her, smiled observantly, "You mother, the princess is not a god-like character, so you hide it from us."

The Princess Anjun, who was frowning a little, only relaxed a little after hearing this. She is of a high level and has a lot of weight in the clan, but she has always liked girls who are dignified and quiet. The etiquette is the same as the one carved in the mold. So when the eldest princess said that her daughter had gone out, she was a little unhappy. A prudent lady would walk around at will. Even with her entourage, this Daci Temple is crowded with people. What if she is hit by someone? It is a little worse if he is not in the royal education.

Princess Zhaohua respected Princess Anjun because of her seniority, but she didn't need to look at her face either.

After listening to Mrs. Kang Guogong's words, she was well-preserved and praised, and she was also smiling. If the eldest princess is most satisfied with her daughter's appearance, if there is no such thing as that year, her daughter will really have a happy life with no regrets.

She hopes that Mingzhu will become a lady of perfect standards, knowledgeable, dignified and elegant. She wants to make up for her shortcomings, so that she will not be flawed because of her experience of living outside for more than ten years. Even if she appears in front of everyone, she can't find any mistakes. Come.

Master Hou said that she didn't want to hold her daughter, so she didn't have to marry into a big family in the future, because she didn't need to marry into a big family. But there are so many young talents from the famous nobles in Beijing, Young Master Pian Pian, why should her daughter be married?

Most people in the meditation room talked about the topic of the Pearl Princess. After all, this is a hot news in the capital recently, but they are all shrewd. If it's good, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wei Guohou and the eldest princess attach great importance to the princess who they recognize, and they have not lost their affection because they have been separated for many years.

After all, the one's own is one's own, not to mention the royal blood.

Some people's eyes fell on Qi Lingyan who was beside the princess, with unexplained thoughts.

Qi Lingyan didn't seem to be aware of this gap, strictly guarding his duty, with a gentle and dignified smile, adding tea to the eldest princess from time to time.

...

The magnificent construction of Daci Temple, Xiao Han just walked around casually, looking for a reason not to let the maid follow. After arriving in Beijing, although she tried her best to converge a lot, trying to make herself look ordinary and less noticeable, but her nature is still the same, the world is so big, she has walked in so many places, is it because she recognizes her biological parents Xiao Han sighed slightly because of his current identity and became cringe, unable to hold his hands and feet.

The incense was flourishing outside, so she went to a quiet place. After passing through the arches of several temples, she saw lush flowers and trees, gurgling water, and unique and pleasant scenery.

If it weren't for the whispers that suddenly sounded behind the rockery not far away, Xiao Han might still appreciate it for a while.

The two girls with luxurious clothes and a maid, who should be the daughter of a maid, whispered there, "My mother said that the princess also came to Daci Temple, and also brought the princess and Qi Lingyan."

The other girl in the blue silk skirt was a little surprised, "Qi Lingyan? Can the eldest princess take her by her side?"

"Yeah, the decent princess is back, and a stand-in is still dangling in front of the princess, still so favored." The voice of the girl in yellow clothes was obviously jealous and unwilling.

The girl in the Qingsiluo skirt seemed to be sighed and unfair to the princess, "The princess Pearl is really pitiful. She has suffered outside for more than ten years and let others enjoy these blessings and honors for her."

The yellow-clothed girl's tone became more acrimonious, "Isn't it? The eldest princess likes Qi Lingyan so much, and she has almost taken her to the sky in the past. In addition to the name of the princess, the princess has nothing to her. The queen mother and the empress like her very much. Qi Lingyan is just an orphan from an ordinary birth, and she really regards herself as the princess and the master of the princess mansion."

"After all, when the princess was away, the eldest princess recognized her as a righteous daughter and put her feelings for the princess on her." The girl in the Qingsi Luo skirt sighed, "but Qi Lingyan is really amazing, even serious. The princess came back and it did not affect her status."

The girl in yellow sneered, "Hmph, after all, the relationship that has been fostered for more than ten years is no less than graciousness. Not to mention petting, it is the dowry, I am afraid that the princess's inner library will be divided in half by then, listen to my mother, The eldest princess has spoken a long time ago, and Qi Lingyan will marry gracefully from the princess mansion. The poor princess's royal bloodline, the decent daughter of the marquis, will even be crushed by the limelight."

...

Xiao Han rubbed the jade pendant around his waist, but stopped for a while and left before turning around, listening to these words completely.

These gossips had no effect on her and could not cause any waves. She was just curious about whether these people's words were intentional or unintentional.

Was it the little girl in the boudoir who was intrigued by a little bit of malice, or someone deliberately caused her to fight with Qi Lingyan, in order to watch a good show or have another plan.

If someone deliberately provoked behind, or appeared beside Qi Lingyan in a different way, these comments would be heard. If things go on like this, Qi Lingyan looks smart, after all, she is a young girl lacking experience in the world, and may not be able to withstand the pressure of these discussions.

The two noble ladies also ended their private conversations. When they were about to walk out, their maid noticed Xiao Han sharp-eyed. "Miss, someone is there."

The yellow-clothed girl's face changed slightly, and she was startled with her companions, and then recalled that there was nothing taboo about what she said just now, and at most she criticized a few things about the Long Princess Mansion, and it would be okay if she didn't spread it out. Then he relaxed, especially when he saw that there was no maid next to Xiao Han, thinking that it was an ordinary lady or concubine from the family, who was light-hearted, and no one believed it.

She also looked even more arrogant, "Are you eavesdropping on us?"

Xiao Han said lightly, "Buddhism is a clean place, and it is better to stop telling people right and wrong."

After listening, Xiao Han was also upright and didn't mean to avoid dodge.

The two noble ladies looked a little ugly when they heard this. If this sentence is spread out, I am afraid that their reputation in the boudoir will be damaged, and they will commit the crime of tongue, especially the yellow-clothed girls are kind of humiliated. Feeling, a wave of anger rushed to the forehead, "What is your business, and what kind of capacity do you blame for us."

Xiao Han chuckled lightly, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, "That's not a coincidence, I am the princess Zhao Yinghuan you mentioned."

This time, the two noble ladies were really shocked, Huarong paled. Since they were still being heard by the master, they immediately knelt on the ground with their maid, and said softly, "I I have seen the princess.

The princess is from the first-rank level. When they see it, they have to bow to the princess. What's more, they just said that they offended the princess. They did not dare to report their identities, for fear that the princess will hate them, although it is useless. , Is it really impossible to find out if you really want to check it?

Xiao Han didn't look at them, and his calm gaze fell to a place hidden by the flowers and trees on the left, "Since you have heard right and wrong, you are not a gentleman to hide and hide."
