Drunk House

Chapter 780 Don’t worry (second update)

When Princess Qingping and her consort were staying in the consort's private treasury, Yan Huiseng sent Duanhua back to his residence. After getting off the carriage, Duanhua took him and walked directly to his private treasury.

Yan Huihui stopped her, "Go and see your aunt first."

Duanhua could only call one person and ask: "Where is my mother?"

 “The princess and the consort went to the consort’s private treasury.” One person replied.

"My father has opened a private treasury?" Duan Hua was shocked, turned to Yan Hui and said, "Should I take you to my father's private treasury to find them?"

Yan Hui shook his head and said, "It's not very good. Let's go to your private treasury first?"

 Duanhua nodded, pulled him away and left.

When she arrived, the housekeeper of her private treasury was locking the door. She stopped him, "Don't lock it yet."

The housekeeper turned around and saw Yan Huisheng. He said "Ouch" in his heart and hurriedly greeted him, "Your Highness."

Yan nodded in response.

Duan Hua said: "I brought my cousin, the prince, to see the gift Su Rong gave me."

 The housekeeper quickly took out the gift list from his sleeve and handed it over respectfully, "This is the gift list for the congratulatory gift from the concubine."

Duan Hua took it and handed it to Yan Huisheng, "Cousin Prince, look, there are so many, hundreds of them."

Yan Huisheng took it, and after reading it ten lines at a time, his breath was suffocated. He thought that no wonder Duanhua said they were all good things. Indeed, among the hundreds of pieces, not one was defective, and there were even many varieties. They were all of the highest quality.

 He handed the gift list back to Duan Hua.

Duanhua took the gift list and dragged Yan Huisheng into his private treasury. The butler quickly followed and served him.

Duan Hua is worthy of being the only daughter in the princess palace. Qing Ping has doted on her since she was a child. There are countless good things piled up in different categories in the private treasury. There are several huge luminous pearls inlaid on the wall, which illuminate the entire private treasury.

“Cousin Prince, look, these are all given to me by Su Rong.” Duanhua pointed to the hundreds of brocade boxes neatly arranged on the shelf.

 The housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward and opened them one by one for Yan Huiwei to take a look at.

 Today, he barely left the princess's private treasury for long. The princess visited the princess, the princess visited the consort, and now the princess has brought the prince here again.

As a prince, Yan Huisheng had naturally seen many good things since he was a child. However, Su Rong gave such generous gifts, so he still wanted to come and see them. After seeing them one by one, he sighed to Duan Hua, "Although the King of Southern Chu is the king, Unfashionable, but really rich.”

Duan Hua looked up at him, "If you sell me, I won't be worth these things."

Yan Hui smiled, "You are a lonely princess now, so there is no need to belittle yourself."

 He turned around and walked out of Duanhua's private treasury.

 Duanhua followed him and handed the gift list back to the butler, "Help me collect it."

After she finished speaking, she caught up with Yan Huisheng and said, "Cousin Prince, what should I give in return? If my return gift is too light, will Su Rong think I am too stingy?"

"No." Yan Hui shook her head, "When she gave it to you, she probably didn't want you to return the gift at all."

Duan Hua nodded, "I can't afford to go back anyway. In my private treasury, I only have a few good things that I have saved since I was a child." Yan Hui said warmly, "I said I would help you go back." He touched it. Touching her head, "Take me to the main courtyard to wait for my aunt?"

 “Oh, okay.” Duanhua obediently led the way.

Qingping and the consort heard the news that the prince was coming, and hurriedly came out of the consort's private treasury. The two of them were so disgraced in the private treasury that they could only go to take a shower and freshen up first. After such a delay, they waited until Yan Huisheng and Duan Hua came out of her secluded treasury. , waited for two cups of tea before Qingping and the Prince Consort came.

Yan Huihui stood up, "Aunt, uncle."

The prince consort quickly raised his hand and said, "Your Highness."

Qingping said with a smile: "I heard that His Royal Highness left all the courtiers in the meeting hall and returned to the East Palace today. Please don't spoil her. Is this going to be okay?"

Duanhua didn't wait for Yan to say yes, and immediately said: "Mom, what are you talking about? I won't take the blame. It was the prince's cousin who disliked the quarrels between the courtiers and gave him a headache, so he took the opportunity to hide back in the East Palace. I But he didn’t let the butler of the East Palace call him.”

 She was even angry with the housekeeper because of this matter.

Yan Huixi said from the side: "My cousin is right. It was indeed Gu who went back to the East Palace to escape. It has nothing to do with her."

Qingping breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "That's good. I'm afraid the court officials will accuse her of being ignorant."

 In the past, she was just a princess. She was not afraid of the courtiers impeaching her daughter. But from now on, it is different. She is a princess.

“No, don’t worry, Auntie.” Yan echoed and shook his head.

Qingping felt relieved, and a few people sat down. She asked, "Have you seen the gifts that Su Rong gave Duanhua? Well, your uncle and I went through our private treasury, and we only got twenty or thirty Of all the things that can be obtained, half of them are the men’s favorite pens, inkstones, calligraphy and paintings, and other things..."

“Mom, why does Su Rong want something that men like?” Duan Hua asked immediately.

"Your child, she and Zhou Gu are one and the same, so naturally she is given to Zhou Gu." Qing Ping glared at her.

 Duanhua was dissatisfied, "I don't want to give Zhou a look."

Qingping ignored her and said to Yan Hui: "I plan to go to the emperor tomorrow. There are many good things in the emperor's private treasury. I wonder if I can get some of them after complaining."

Yan Hui smiled and did not stop him, "Auntie, you can go and try."

Anyway, the father has more than one son. He has a lot of sons and daughters. Who can be coaxed away? It’s impossible to give it all to him.

Seeing that he didn't care, Qingping smiled and said to Yan Hui: "There is another thing I am thinking about. At the beginning, Prince Derui and Crown Princess left a lot of property for Sister Zhenmin, and the Queen Mother has been helping to take care of it. But since When the news came that Zhen Min and his wife Da Wei had passed away, the Queen Mother also fell seriously ill, so the emperor's brother took over the management of those properties. I forgot about Su Rong during his stay in Beijing. I wonder if the emperor's brother also forgot about it. So, I will go to the palace to see the emperor tomorrow and plan to mention it to him, what do you say?"

Yan Hui responded with surprise, "There is actually such a thing, but I don't know about it."

He asked: "Do the Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Deri have much private property?"

"Quite a few." Qingping said: "Prince De Rui is the elder brother of the late emperor, and he has also been a prince since he was a child. He has weak bones. He has long known that he will not live a long life, and has made plans for his only daughter in advance. But unfortunately, God is not as good as man. Sister Zhenmin lost her parents at the age of three and had to be raised by the Queen Mother. She always remembers this kindness and never forgets the prince of De Rui in her memory. Even if he is ill in bed and coughs up blood every day, She never left her body and worked hard for Daliang Sheji. How could she bear to watch Daliang be destroyed? Not to mention the kindness of raising her, there were scenes of her father working hard for the prince. She remembered it deeply when she was a child and would never forget it. .So, everything depends on fate, and she died early.”

Yan Hui nodded and thought for a moment, "In this way, my aunt will go first tomorrow. If my father doesn't respond, I will go and talk to him later."

Qingping nodded, "Okay."
