The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister

  Chapter 100 Eldest Prince

   "How was he when he went back yesterday? Did he go to his eldest princess mother to cry for father and mother?"

  The heat in the capital city in July is strong, only the early morning is still a little cool. The lotus flowers are not as densely bloomed as last month, and there are already three or two lotus pods hanging on many branches, but there is a special interest.

  In the gazebo by the lotus pond, a man with golden crown and hair wearing a silver woven python robe is playing chess with one hand.

The servant at the side, who was in his thirties, smiled flatteringly at the young master, bowed with a fly whisk in his hand and said, "Your Highness, Mr. Pei stayed in the Ministry of Industry all night and did not go back. This morning, I will accompany the new The wife of the son who has entered has gone to Ning."

  The man's chess hand paused, and he laughed lightly: "If such a big incident happened, he wouldn't find someone to figure out how to deal with it, and would he still be in the mood to accompany his wife?"

   "Your Highness, maybe you are just pretending to be calm."

  The three adult princes of the current Jiahe dynasty.

A twenty-one-year-old, not too strong, was confiscated as a territory early, and has not been in the capital for a long time; the other has just reached the weak crown, married the daughter of the Xie family two years ago, and was named King Rui; the other was only seventeen, Just moved out of the palace last year to build another mansion.

   At this time, the second prince Chu Xuan, who was enshrined as King Rui, was playing chess in the lotus pavilion.

   "Are you sure the news is true?" King Rui looked sideways.

  Fan Jiu bowed even lower, took a step closer, and said in a low voice: "I have entered the Duke's Mansion safely, and it is in the courtyard of the eldest princess. I can't leave it."

   "The eldest princess's yard? Fan Jiu, that's not what he said before." King Rui was young, but he was born noble, and his words and deeds were full of coercion.

Fan Jiu immediately knelt down and said, "Your Highness, it's true that Prince Pei is too widowed. The new wife of the prince seems to have the same temperament. She only brought a personal maid with her when she married to the Duke's mansion. Except for the day of marriage, the courtyard There isn't even a maidservant here. If you don't let go of people over there, even if the slaves have a hundred talents, they won't be able to use their strength."

   King Rui snorted coldly.

  What is widowhood? In his opinion, it means that he has read too many books, his mind is dull, and his official career has gone too smoothly. As soon as he returned to the Duke's Mansion, he was praised by his aunt and father, and no one looked down on him.

  A few days ago, he invited me many times, but he turned it down repeatedly.

  Beheading him as the governor of Liangjiang mercilessly, and still not being wooed by him, he is afraid that he has forgotten that the surname Chu in this world is not Pei!

   "Keep staring at him." King Rui's eyes turned cold, and he squeezed the sunspot on his hand tightly, "Father still wants to give him a promotion..."

  He sneered: "Let's see how he rises this time!"

  Of course Wen Ning would not keep any nuns and maidservants in Qinghui Hall.

  The maid who was originally dowry wanted to bring Chun Xing with her, but after thinking about it later, this was not a real marriage, Chun Xing was not as stable and proper as Ling Lan, and it would be bad if she came here to cause trouble.

Yesterday, Pei Youdu gave her the waist card that allowed her to come and go freely. When Cui Momo asked her to order a few servants to serve in the yard, she said naturally: "Shizi Xijing, I have Linglan by my side. That's enough, Nanny Lao and mother are done worrying."

   Actually, I don’t want to have more eyes around me, and it will be inconvenient for her to go out.

  She didn't know whether Pei You returned home last night, after all, the eldest princess told him to sleep in the study, and she went to bed early last night, so she didn't know much about Qinghui Hall.

  But this morning when she just woke up, Linglan said that Prince Pei was already waiting for her for two cups of tea.

  At this moment, they had already boarded the carriage back to the Wen Mansion, followed by some people from the Duke’s Mansion, and there were huge gifts, so the speed of the car was not fast.

  Pei You kept his eyes closed in the car to rest his mind, Wen Ning thought that he probably had a bed and didn't have a good rest.

  He is used to this, it is extremely difficult to get acquainted with people, and it is the same with things.

  She didn't want to disturb him at first, but she was about to arrive at the Wen Mansion, so she cleared her throat and said, "Master Pei, can you...give me some face later?"

  She knows that he treats strangers very coldly, and she is not his real wife, and he may be too lazy to deal with her family.

  But father and brothers thought she was really married.

   "It's just you and me on weekdays, so it's okay if you get angry with me, but today, in front of my father and two older brothers, you..."

   Before Wen Ning finished speaking, Pei You opened her eyes, gave her a look of disgust, leaned over, and thrust something into her hair.

  The movement was too fast, Wen Ning didn't see what it was.

   Subconsciously raised his hand to touch it.

  A...wooden hairpin?

   "If you don't like it, go back and ask Gu Fei to change one." Before she could say anything, Pei You had already closed her eyes again, leaning against the wall of the car and said calmly.

  Wen Ning turned his head.

   It turned out to be a wooden hairpin again.

  Pei You also gave her one after getting married in her previous life. It was winter at that time, and there was a brazier burning in the house, so she pulled it out and threw it into the brazier.

  Pei You had a big fight with her because of this.

   It’s just that he carved the wooden hairpin in his previous life, this one…

   Probably not.

   You can still find Gu Fei to change it.

  Wen Ning figured it out right away.

  Wooden hairpins are of course not as valuable as gold and silver hairpins, but they are unique, and it is easy to fool people into saying that they are made by themselves.

  Wearing it in Gui Ning, everyone in the Wen family knew that the prince treated her differently.

   Tsk, this scheming person can do everything by surprise.

   Get her a hairpin, and he won't have to cooperate with her in acting like a piano and a song and a song of affection.

  His attitude is colder, and others will only say that the son is used to being cold and his emotions are not on the surface. It's not that he doesn't like his wife.

  But in the end, Pei You still gave her face.

Entering Wen's mansion to be respectful and polite, you should call your father "Father", you should call your eldest brother "Big Brother", even to Wen Qi, who is two or three years younger than him, that "Second Brother" is not appropriate. Confused, only Wen Tingchun smiled and nodded constantly.

   This dissipated most of the depression that Wen Ning had suffered from him for the past two days.

   Yes, this is what a deal should look like.

  He gave her face, and she also tried her best to cooperate with him, so that this scene can be performed well.

  So after lunch in Wen's residence, when Pei You said that she would take her to another place, she nodded generously, and did not contradict him at all.

   It's just that Pei You is so obsessed with the place that he didn't go yesterday, but he still wants to go today...

  Pei You closed her eyes again as soon as she got into the carriage, and Wen Ning didn't ask any more questions, but she had a guess in her mind.

  The one-year agreement between her and Yichunyuan was too early, and even Yichunyuan no longer exists. There should be no one to stop the Wang couple from coming to Beijing.

  The son's big wedding is very grand, and they must also get the news.

  Could it be...Pei You is going to take her to meet the Wangs?

  Thinking of it this way, Wen Ning actually felt a little excited in her heart.

  She really liked the gentle and compliant Mrs. Wang, and she couldn't help but be happy when she thought of seeing her again.

  The carriage drove for about ten miles outside the capital, and when it reached the foot of a mountain, Pei You asked Ling Lan, Gu Fei and others who were accompanying him to wait in place, and only let Tu Bai drive around the mountain road.

  Wen Ning became even more curious.

  She knows this mountain.

   It is the famous Wanggui Mountain outside the capital.

  Wanggui Mountain has an excellent view. Once or twice a year, she would go up the mountain with her brothers.

  But Pei You took a very secluded road, it was the summer season, and he didn't meet any tourists, and the further he went, the deeper it became.

  Finally, the carriage stopped in front of a manor.

   Hope to return to the village.

  Wen stared at the three powerful characters on the plaque. She was born and raised in the capital city, and she never knew that there was such a secluded villa hidden in Wanggui Mountain.

  Tu Bai was tying the carriage, Pei You held his hand behind his back, and when he raised his eyes, the fresh greenery in the valley was reflected.

  Before Wen Ning asked him where he was, someone in front had already opened the door. When he saw them, or Pei You, he showed surprise, and then turned around and ran in.

   While running, he shouted excitedly: "The eldest son is back! The eldest son and his daughter-in-law are back to see us!"
