Chapter 73

Si Yitang.

The slanting sun was still dazzling, and the air was dry and hot. Even the flowers and plants in the yard were withered, and the birds that occasionally jumped and croaked in the treetops were gone.

Only the princess's unique clear voice could be heard continuously from the inner room, but it was much more coquettish and charming than usual.

I have deliberately lowered it, and I didn't even want to make a sound, but I couldn't control it when I met such a strong and powerful son-in-law.

When the masters first entered the room to take a break, the four maids reunited after a long absence, and sat next to the beauties in the corridor, whispering happily.

The good sisters chatted livelyly, and the movement of going to the room suddenly floated over.

Chaoyun and Chaoyue blushed first.

Chaolu and Chao Lan were stunned for a moment before they realized it.

"Hey, if you have anything to say, let's talk after a break at night. The two of you stay here and watch, and we'll go back to take a nap first."

Chaoyun hurriedly pulled Chaoyue to stand up. They had packed things in the palace early in the morning, and they were really tired now, and the princess said it would take at least half an hour. If they didn't take the opportunity to take a rest, would they stayListening to the corner here?It’s fine to secretly listen when you’re alone, but when everyone gathers together, it’s embarrassing no matter what you think.

Chaoyue also thought so, and quickly followed her away.

After the two disappeared, Chaolu snorted softly, "What's the matter, it's not like we haven't experienced it before."

Before the princess went to Ling Zhou with her old family, she and her son-in-law spent nearly three months of newly married life here. Although the princess disliked the son-in-law, she couldn't stand the thick-skinned son-in-law. There were always several times a month.

Chao Lan: "That's right, it's about a cup of tea. As for them running away?"

The two of them were very indifferent, and continued to chat about the news they had just heard from the sisters, still curious about the turning point between the princess and the son-in-law.

"If they don't run away, we don't have to guess." Chaolu was still very angry.

Chao Lan: "Could it be that a friend in need is a friend in need? I heard from the little maid in the old lady's courtyard that there is a flood in Ling Zhou."

The two maids talked to each other, and didn't take the movement in the upper room seriously at all, until the movement lasted for a long, long time.

I don't know whether it was Chaolu who noticed it first, or Chao Lan, but at some point, they all forgot to speak and stared blankly at each other.

Immediately afterwards, Chaolu's ears turned red, and he tried to cover up his embarrassment by chatting: "It's really better for the princess to treat the son-in-law, and she never indulged the son-in-law for so long before."

Chao Lan said nonsense: "It may also be a rogue son-in-law, deliberately relying on the princess."

Chaolu: "He dares!"

Chao Lan didn't make a sound, hid on the farther side of the beauty, lay down and said: "I'm asleep, the princess has been served, you call me."

Chaolu: ...

When the sunlight outside the window finally faded, Chen Jingzong finally picked up the drooping veil on Babu's bed, and walked out wearing a pair of trousers.

He went to the clean room to clean things up, washed them four or five times with clean water, then returned to the inner room, continued to soak them in the lotus bowl, and kept them for use at night.

After wiping his hands, Chen Jingzong walked to the table, took the teapot in one hand and the tea bowl in the other, and went back to Ba Bu's bed.

Just now Hua Yang put his last effort into dressing, and now he is wearing a water-red satin dress as thin as a cicada's wings, with loose satin trousers of the same color underneath, lying lazily on the pillow.It was hot, and she didn't cover herself with the quilt anymore, her wrists as white as agar were exposed, and her trouser legs shrank up with her posture, revealing two slender, white calves, and a pair of small and exquisite natural feet were fully exposed.

Everything is white, only one face is rosy, like a blush peony that has just been moistened by a drizzle.

Listening to Chen Jingzong sitting down next to him, Hua Yang didn't want to pay attention to him, but he was really thirsty, so he let him hug him.

Chen Jingzong's strength is manifested in every aspect, but now, the ease with which he hugged her gave Hua Yang the illusion that he was really as light as a fairy.

Eyelashes drooping, she took small sips of the water that was brought to her mouth.

This is what Chen Jingzong is used to. At first, he couldn't grasp the appropriateness. He either choked her when he fed too fast, or stared at her when he fed too slowly. Now Chen Jingzong is very proficient, even Hua Yang drinks.After taking a few sips, he had to rest for a while, he knew it clearly.

The last person who could serve Hua Yang so meticulously and impeccably was Wu Run, Eunuch Wu.

"What are you laughing at?" Chen Jingzong asked, noticing the corners of her lips curled up. Are you happy after drinking water?

Hua Yang raised his eyes, with a clear smile in his wet eyes: "I'm laughing, if one day I really get tired of you and don't want you to be my concubine, but you serve so well, if you don't want toIf you leave me, I would rather become a father-in-law to serve by my side, and I will probably keep you as well."

Chen Jingzong snorted: "I'm afraid that I will give up, but you won't."

Hua Yang: ...

She continued to drink water.

When she lay back on the bed again, Chen Jingzong asked: "Sleep a little longer, or ask the maids to prepare water?"

Hua Yang: "Prepare water."

Even though she was sleepy, she couldn't stand the sweat just now, so she had to wash off first.

Chen Jingzong took out the bell she had used to call the maids, and shook it a few times.

Soon, there was the sound of running footsteps outside, and finally stopped in front of the inner room door to wait for orders.

Chen Jingzong asked them to prepare water. He simply wiped it with the towel in the room, and then put on his outer robe.

"I'll stay in the front yard first, and come back when I have dinner." He stood in front of the screen and said to the bed.

Now is not the time to mourn in Lingzhou. The whole family has nothing to do. When they returned to the capital, the old man was promoted to the chief assistant. The three brothers are also in official positions. Someone may come to the house at any time, and even the father and son brothers have to meet.As far as the matter is concerned, he must be ready to deal with it at any time.She probably won't be too leisurely as a princess, not to mention mothers and sister-in-laws, there are also many people outside who want to come to curry favor with her.

Hua Yang responded casually.

Chen Jingzong went out.

Chao Lan and Chaolu ordered the little maids to go to the water room to pass the message. They don't have to do the rough work of carrying the water themselves, and they are all waiting to go in and serve at the moment.

When the son-in-law came out, they subconsciously looked at him, and saw that the son-in-law was wearing a round neck brocade robe neatly, his figure was tall and straight, his handsome face was still as indifferent as usual, and he didn't show off his power in front of them at all once he was favored.His posture seems to be the son-in-law who was frequently disliked by the princess back then.

When the figure of the son-in-law was completely gone, the two maids looked at each other for a while, until the water was brought from the water room.

After recovering, they hurriedly went to the inner room to serve the princess.

The two rolled up the veil on one side first, and Chaolu looked at the bed with a bit of worry and curiosity.

In my memory, every time the son-in-law finished his bed service, the princess would always be angry...

Then, Chaolu saw a lazy and charming beauty's face, which seemed to be a little sleepy, but it was difficult to hide the comfort and joy between the eyebrows and eyes.

It's like when their sisters were tickling and playing, their stomachs hurt from laughing too much, being funny is laughing, it's happy.

Hua Yang only opened his eyes at this time, and found that it was the two of them who came in, which was somewhat embarrassing.

Chaoyun and Chaoyue have long been accustomed to what she and Chen Jingzong did. The master and servant don't take each other seriously when they meet, and they are calm with each other.

However, Chaolu and Chao Lan will soon get used to it, and it is they who need to adapt, not her the princess.

Hua Yang raised his hand.

Chaolu hurried over and helped the princess up steadily.

However, Chao Lan noticed that the bed was covered with an ordinary white tunic. From the unremarkable style, he could tell that it belonged to the son-in-law.

Only then did Hua Yang realize that the middle coat was still pressed underneath.

Chen Jingzong's body is really like casting copper and iron. If there is no extra layer, no amount of Shu brocade she has will be enough.

It's just that there's no need to explain it to the maids. After sitting by the bed for a while, Hua Yang went to the bathroom to take a bath when his legs stopped trembling.

Chao Lan made the bed, and Chaolu went to wait on her.

Or say it's a big maid, who has a different relationship with the master, and dares to say some things.

Chaolu sat on the stool and gently wiped the princess's creamy shoulders with a towel in one hand, while asking in a low voice: "Princess, is the relationship between you and your son-in-law much better now than before?"

Hua Yang: "It's okay, you remember to tell Chao Lan that you should treat your son-in-law with more respect in the future, and don't be as cold-eyed as before."

Of course, she doesn't blame these maids for being rude to Chen Jingzong before, because the maids acted based on her face. When she didn't want to see Chen Jingzong, if the maids gave Chen Jingzong a good face all day long, it was equivalent to betrayalShe is a princess.

Chaolu clicked his tongue secretly: "Oh, the son-in-law has really won your favor. If I had known, we should have been more polite the night the son-in-law just came back, and last night."

Hua Yang sensed something was wrong, and asked, "Except for these two nights, did the middle son-in-law live in the guard?"

Chaolu: "No, the first night you were not there, the son-in-law actually came to sleep in the backyard, we almost wanted to push him back, because the son-in-law was too powerful, we didn't dare to speak. And last night, we thought the son-in-law was wishful thinkingI look forward to serving you at bedtime, and my face is not so good when entertaining the son-in-law, hey, princess, we really didn't know that you have already doted on the son-in-law, so the son-in-law won't bear a grudge against us, right?"

They lived with the princess in the palace for so long, and they often heard that a favored concubine was gossiping in the emperor's ears. Now Chaolu was very afraid that the son-in-law would use his favor to encourage the princess to punish these rude maids.

Hua Yang: ...

She is far from being fond of Chen Jingzong, is she?At most it's a little better than last life.

To dote on one's mother should be like how the father treats the empress. He caress about the little things, but he is willing to listen to the mother when it comes to major matters. Of course, the father has a lot of love, but he just gives the big head to the mother.

"Don't worry, the son-in-law is not so narrow-minded, and I will not punish you for what he said."

Hua Yang first comforted his eldest maid.

Chaolu breathed a sigh of relief.

Hua Yang continued to think about the fact that Chen Jingzong hadn't come home for ten days.

In her previous life, she went back to Beijing and lived in the palace for a full month. It was because her mother urged her several times that she reluctantly returned to the Chen family. Chen Jingzong took her back to the mansion and stayed in the mansion for two nights.Later, it was said that the guards were busy with training and would only come back when they were resting.

Hua Yang guessed that Chen Jingzong also flirted with her because he couldn't bear her cold face and disgust. After all, his arrogance had never changed.

But in this life, the two got along very well at night. If Chen Jingzong still wants to live in the guard for a long time, it means that Hua Yang misunderstood him in his previous life.I'm so busy that don't even care about home.

In the evening, before it was dark, Chen Jingzong came to the backyard.

Hua Yang is sitting in the yard under the shade of a tree to enjoy the coolness. This is the case in summer, only early morning and evening can stay outside.

Chen Jingzong sat next to her naturally, picked up the melon and fruit plate on the table, took a bite by himself, and fed her with a slice.

When Chaolu and Chao Lan met, they became more and more aware of the new position of the son-in-law next to the princess.

The maids tactfully avoided it.

Hua Yang glanced at Chen Jingzong and asked, "I heard that you have been busy with training recently and haven't come home?"

Chen Jingzong looked at her and said: "What's so busy about training soldiers? They practice during the day and they have to sleep at night. I should also rest. It's just that you're not here, so why should I waste an hour running back?"

Hua Yang: "So, you will come back every day in the future?"

Chen Jingzong ate a mouthful of melon and fruit, and said without hesitation: "Aren't you going to rest overnight? On the days you want to rest, I will still sleep in the guard."

Although he has strength, he will also be tired, and he doesn't want to waste his efforts.

Hua Yang: ...

He has nothing to do with being arrogant or obsessed with official duties. He is purely a dog. If he has meat to eat, he doesn't care if he is greedy from morning to night. Without meat, he will become a lazy bone!
