080 Mysterious Aunt Liu
Butler Wang never thought that he would have such a helpless day, but this matter was ultimately not something he could do. After being conflicted for an hour, he finally took the invitation to ask Aunt Chen for her opinion.
Aunt Chen looked at the delicate greeting card in her hand. On her haggard face after not sleeping well all night, she smiled appropriately and noblely, but there were a few quietly visible crow's feet in the corners of her eyes: "The housekeeper is really confused. How can I neglect King Chen's visit?"
What? Order people to clean the house quickly and spread the tiger skin carpet in the warehouse.
Also, isn’t there still this year’s Yuqian tribute tea? Hurry up and prepare it. Go see what’s missing from the dishes in the big kitchen and prepare it quickly! The second lady’s fiancé is here for the first time, so don’t let him look down upon it.
We want to marry our Murong family, so that the second young lady will not marry into Prince Chen’s palace and become the mistress of the family, and will be criticized by others!”
Butler Wang hurriedly took the order, mobilized all the servants in the house, and made full preparations for the future uncle to come, but he was secretly worried in his heart.
According to Aunt Chen's tone, she will personally entertain King Chen when he comes to visit tomorrow. But, no matter how much Aunt Chen is in charge, she is still an aunt after all!
If tomorrow King Chen misunderstands us and neglects him, what should we do?
I just hope that King Chen is as gentle and elegant as the rumors outside, and he is as handsome as an immortal. He will not be like them, and he can just laugh off the issue of the identity of the host of Murong Mansion!
After Murong Yue had lunch, she was about to get into bed to catch up on the sweet dreams that had been interrupted in the morning. However, she heard the sound of banging and the noise of people outside. She asked Aunt Xiao and she found out that her fiancé, who had just been engaged, was going to be married tomorrow.
Want to visit.
In view of the noble status of the other party and the frail body that cannot withstand the influence of the world, the house is being cleaned and decorated from top to bottom.
Anyway, the afternoon nap was wasted, so Murong Yue simply took Shui Feifei and Aunt Xiao out of Lanyue Garden and started walking around. Anyway, I had nothing to do, so it was good to look around at the autumn colors of Murong Mansion.
Aunt Xiao watched the servants busy cleaning, and some of them carefully climbed up the tree and picked off the withered leaves on the tree. They were afraid that when King Chen came tomorrow, that leaf would happen to fall on Chen.
The king's body disturbed the "weak" King Chen.
She was even more curious about her future uncle. Seeing that Murong Yue seemed to be in a good mood, she asked: "Miss, do you think our future uncle is really as good as the rumors say? He looks like a fairy! That day you
I went to Concubine De's flower viewing party and I heard that Prince Chen was also here, have you seen him?"
Murong Yue listened to Aunt Xiao's question and smiled secretly in her heart. Sure enough, the charm of beautiful men is great. The beautiful image of King Chen in the Beichen Dynasty has long been implanted in her heart. Not only is he as beautiful as a god, but he is also a wise king.
With such a good reputation, it’s no wonder that even a steady person like Aunt Xiao would be curious about him!
"I've seen him before. He does have a good face." Murong Yue nodded and said.
Aunt Xiao couldn't help but look at Murong Yue reproachfully: "Miss, what are you talking about? This Prince Chen is the patron saint of our Beichen. Do you know how many natural disasters Prince Chen has solved for our Beichen? Back then, the South
drought,
How many people had no harvest and were about to starve to death, but Prince Chen asked the emperor to order the ministers to donate silver coins according to their official rank. Prince Chen bought the grain and distributed it to every victim in the disaster area.
hands."
"Not only that, Prince Chen also personally dragged his sick body to the fields to check the damage. Then, in view of the shortcomings of being unable to store water due to the heavy rain in the south, he opened channels to store water, thereby solving the problem of the drought season the next year.
of water. I also submitted a memorial requesting the emperor to waive taxes in the disaster area for three years!"
Aunt Xiao recounted Prince Chen's deeds with a look of admiration in her eyes: "It is said that when Prince Chen left the disaster area, the people in the disaster area traveled more than ten miles and even set up longevity cards at home.
I hope that with my power of telepathy, I can help Prince Chen get better and live a long life!"
Murong Yue listened quietly to King Chen's deeds. When she heard the last sentence, a glimmer of admiration and complexity flashed in her eyes.
Live a long life?
If this is really the case, I am afraid that the emperor sitting on the dragon throne and the prince waiting under the dragon throne will feel uneasy!
Such a person, such a peerless charm, such a popular person, such an unparalleled wisdom, in the royal family, if he is the legitimate son, if he is the heir apparent.
That is indeed the blessing of all people!
But he is just a prince, and the glory and deeds of the prince must be too dim compared to King Chen!
According to what I have learned these days, the world only knows that there is King Chen but not that there is a prince.
If it weren't for King Chen's frail health and not being able to live past his twenties, I'm afraid his position as the crown prince would have been shaken long ago!
"Greetings to Aunt Liu!" Aunt Xiao's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Murong Yue's thoughts.
Murong Yue came back to her senses and saw a graceful figure standing in the bright orange flowers in front of her. Under the scorching afternoon sun, the bright and colorful flowers reflected the beauty in the flowers like a painting.
Is this the mysterious Aunt Liu who rarely appears in front of people and lives deep in Green Willow Garden?
Aunt Liu heard Aunt Xiao's voice and slowly turned her head. A thin face appeared in front of Murong Yue, and there seemed to be another lingering resentment in her brows.
Her eyes with pure sadness stayed on Murong Yue's veiled face for a moment, then she opened her lips lightly, and a soft voice sounded: "Why did the second young lady come to my Green Willow Garden? Aunt Xiao, don't you?"
You have to be polite, my aunt is just a false name."
"Aunt Liu is worrying too much!" Aunt Xiao still bowed to Aunt Liu meticulously, then stood up and stood behind Murong Yue, and said with her usual smile: "Second Miss, if you have nothing to do after dinner, I will take care of you."
I followed her around, and unexpectedly wandered into the Green Willow Garden, disturbing Aunt Liu!"
Aunt Liu smiled faintly and said with a shallow smile: "No need to disturb me, no one has come to this garden for a long time, and I haven't seen any outsiders for a long time!"
After a pause, Aunt Liu asked again: "Is there any happy event in this mansion?"
After hearing this, Murong Yue couldn't help but glance at Aunt Liu. The woman in front of her had a sense of alienation and indifference. It seemed that nothing in the world could make her come out of her own world. From seeing a few of her people coming over, to
Now, I have never stepped out of the flowers.
Even his eyes only glanced at himself at the beginning, and then continued to return to the flowers in front of him, carefully taking care of the weeds and branches of the flowers in front of him.
And her question just now showed that she had never cared about the affairs in the mansion. Otherwise, she would not have known that Prince Chen was coming.
Murong Yue's eyes fell on the house behind Aunt Liu. The clean floor, worn-out tables and chairs, and even the teapots and cups for making tea were made of the cheapest ceramics. Even some of the first-class maids in the mansion cost less.
Not as good as.
Such a person is actually the aunt in the mansion. Compared with Aunt Chen who holds great power and manages the entire prime minister's mansion, Aunt Liu seems to be... too aloof from the world.
"Back to Aunt Liu, Prince Chen is coming to visit tomorrow, and the people in the mansion are making preparations." Aunt Xiao seemed to respect Aunt Liu in front of her more than she did Aunt Chen, and she answered Aunt Liu's question politely.
talk.
Besides, she also knew that it would be impossible for Shui Feifei, who was silent when she had nothing to say and concise her language when she had nothing to do, to answer Aunt Liu's question, so she naturally took on the responsibility of answering.
"Prince Chen?" Aunt Liu had naturally heard of this world-famous prince, and for the first time her words were filled with emotions, and she asked doubtfully: "Why did Prince Chen come to the house?"
Aunt Xiao glanced at Murong Yue and replied again: "Yesterday, Prince Chen and the second lady made a marriage arrangement, so I handed over the greeting card today and will come to visit tomorrow."
"Oh?" Aunt Liu's eyes returned to Murong Yue again, and she looked at her up and down, then her eyes changed several times, as if she was thinking about something, and finally nodded and said: "It doesn't matter if you are engaged or married.
It’s better to give it to King Chen than…, Aunt Xiao, take good care of the second young lady, she is also a miserable person!”
After saying this, Aunt Liu turned to Murong Yue and returned to the house, leaving the three of them standing outside the house without paying any attention to them.
"Second Miss, let's go!" Aunt Xiao seemed not to be surprised by such signs. Instead, she was secretly surprised that Aunt Liu would salute Murong Yue.
"Mommy, who is this Aunt Liu?" Murong Yue searched her memory, but found that the memory of Aunt Liu in her body was blank. If she hadn't met her today, she probably wouldn't have known there was someone in the house.
The existence of such a person.
Such a person is indifferent to all external affairs, but he takes care of the flowers in the garden to be beautiful and enchanting. There is no maid or grandma around him, and no one visits the garden all year round, but he keeps the whole house clean.
, the neat and tidy people really made Murong Yue curious about her!
"Miss, talking about Aunt Liu, she is also a miserable person!" Aunt Xiao sighed softly, and then slowly told the story of Aunt Liu under Murong Yue's curious eyes.
"Aunt Liu originally served the old lady as her maid together with Aunt Chen. Later, the old lady wanted to assign a maid to the master. Aunt Liu was originally going to be assigned, but Aunt Liu was reluctant to leave the old lady, so she became Aunt Chen.
Later, when Aunt Chen became pregnant, the old lady assigned Aunt Liu to serve Aunt Chen.
Originally, the old lady was also interested in them, thinking that they had been serving her since childhood, and they had always been good friends. It was better to let Aunt Liu serve her than to use someone else. In the beginning, it was true that Aunt Chen treated Aunt Liu like a sister.
