Chapter 592: Sent Away, Peace and Quiet
"Yes." The queen responded and stood up to leave.
The Queen Mother looked at Concubine Xu, then at Princess Huaiyang and Ji Chuhe, and became more depressed.
If I had known earlier, I would not have prepared a banquet. After these people came to visit her, I would have sent them away quickly to avoid wasting time.
Anyway, in the eyes of the empress dowager, the three of them were like dead people, and there was no way they would be able to walk out of the imperial capital alive this time.
After the meal, Princess Huaiyang asked the Queen Mother to take her leave directly.
Concubine Xu couldn't help but become nervous.
Although today went smoothly, she was still afraid that she wouldn't be able to cope if the Queen Mother left her alone.
"Okay, I won't keep you any longer. If there is anything missing in the palace, just ask the people in charge to prepare it immediately. Don't be restrained." The Queen Mother said patiently.
"I understand. Thank you, Queen Mother." The princess bowed and saluted.
Ji Chuhe also bowed.
Concubine Xu was a little confused. Did the Queen Mother want her to go with her? Did she not want to keep her and punish her?
She also quickly bowed and walked out.
At the beginning, the Queen Mother did want to keep Concubine Xu, wanting to see the embarrassing look of Concubine Xu, a rat in the gutter. However, now that Concubine Xu was staying under her nose, it affected her mood even more.
After leaving the palace, Concubine Xu, who was sitting in the carriage, patted her chest, feeling a sense of joy at having survived a disaster.
"That's great! It's great that the Queen Mother didn't keep me."
"That's because the Concubine Dowager performed so well today that the Queen Mother doesn't dare to embarrass you." Ji Chuhe continued.
"He'er, you are right, it is true! I don't have to be afraid anymore!" Concubine Xu's tone was full of confidence.
"He'er, the children are still young, and it would be inconvenient for them to go to the palace. Since it's still early, why don't we go directly to Prince Shi's Mansion? Your father and Yan An are with the Emperor, and we don't know how long they will stay there, so let's ignore them for now." The princess suggested.
"Okay." Ji Chuhe nodded, lifted the car curtain and ordered, "Go back to the prince's mansion."
"Yes." A voice responded from outside.
Concubine Xu grasped the corner of her clothes awkwardly, "Should I go with you?"
"If Your Majesty the Dowager doesn't want to go, I can have someone send you back to the palace first." said the princess.
"No, no, no, I want to go. It's boring for me to go back to the palace alone. I'll go with you." Concubine Xu said immediately.
No matter what happened in Huaiyang before, she now felt that she felt safe only with the princess and Ji Chuhe, so she didn't care about her face anymore.
As long as the princess and Ji Chuhe didn't show obvious signs of disliking her, she would stick to these two people.
Ji Chuhe sent people to the Prince's Mansion in advance.
When the carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Prince's Mansion, Dong Ling was already waiting outside the gate with the people from the mansion.
The most excited person among them was Qingluo.
Dongling was holding Xiner, Youer was standing beside Mianzhu, and Yuner was standing beside Nanny Ji.
Lin Siyou stood behind this row of people, with very complicated emotions in her eyes, including a hint of excitement and anticipation, as well as a hint of worry and hesitation.
Ji Chuhe had just helped the princess out of the carriage when Qingluo quickly walked up to her.
"Your servant greets the princess!"
The princess personally helped Qingluo up, "Hurry up."
"Mother, all the big and small things in the prince's mansion are thanks to Aunt Qingluo." Ji Chuhe praised her generously.
"These are all my responsibilities. It's the Madam who has the hard time." Qingluo responded quickly.
Nanny Ji led everyone forward and saluted the princess.
"Meet the princess."
"Everyone please don't be polite." The princess raised her hand.
Concubine Xu was still sitting in the carriage, too embarrassed to know whether to get out.
Ji Chuhe looked back and saw that Concubine Xu had not come down yet, so she immediately walked to the carriage.
"Madam Concubine, we have arrived at the Prince's residence. I will help you get off the carriage."
Concubine Xu quickly reached out, held Ji Chuhe's hand and got off the carriage.
There was also a Concubine Xu in the car, which no one expected. Qingluo and Nanny Ji hurriedly led people to pay their respects to Concubine Xu.
"No need to be so polite, everyone, please stand up." Concubine Xu felt that she had finally regained some face.
Otherwise, she, the concubine, would be like a wisp of air.
Ji Chuhe was a man with good sense, and she found that she no longer disliked Ji Chuhe.
"My Lady Dowager, Mother, let's go into the mansion first."
The group entered the mansion and went straight to Ji Chuhe's yard.
The prince's mansion is not big, and the only place in the inner courtyard where guests can be received without appearing crowded is Ji Chuhe's.
As the princess walked along and looked at the surrounding environment, she felt even more distressed for Ji Chuhe.
"He'er, are we at your yard already? Isn't this prince's mansion too small?" Concubine Xu felt that the mansion was too small.
"It's small, but it's comfortable to live in." Ji Chuhe responded with a smile.
"Yes, although it is small, the scenery is quite exquisite." Concubine Xu nodded in agreement.
"This mansion was given by the Emperor. With their status, they have no right to choose where to live. Most of them live in houses. When they first built the mansion, they have already earned money to support the whole family."
When Concubine Xu heard what the princess said, she also felt how difficult it was for Ji Chuhe.
Although she had never been the head of a household and didn't know the difficulties of being the head of a household, she knew how difficult life was without money.
She didn't know how to make money. The princess could make money, and Ji Chuhe could also make money. She was somewhat envious.
The princess's gaze fell on the three children.
After taking a look, she waved to You'er, "You'er, come here, grandma."
Although the princess was not in the imperial capital, she could feel the difference in You'er's heart.
Since he is the eldest son recognized by He'er, she naturally recognizes him as well.
"You'er, come and meet your grandma." Ji Chuhe said to You'er.
You'er walked steadily, knelt in front of the princess, and respectfully performed a standard kowtow.
"Greetings, grandma." The childish voice was enough to melt one's heart.
"Good boy, you are so sensible at such a young age. It’s really your mother’s good teaching!" The princess fell in love with this grandson whom she had never met at first sight.
You'er looked at Concubine Xu who was sitting in the main seat with the princess, but did not get up immediately.
Because he doesn’t know whether he should still worship.
He remembered his mother's teachings clearly.
Be polite.
"This is the Dowager Concubine, also your father's grandmother. You'er, come and pay your respects to the Dowager Concubine." Ji Chuhe saw what You'er was thinking and immediately introduced her.
The princess was shocked that such a young child actually understood etiquette!
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Concubine." You'er kowtowed to the Concubine again.
"Get up quickly, get up quickly, the ground is cold." Concubine Xu also waved her hand quickly.
I don't know why, this child was clearly born to a concubine and was registered under Ji Chuhe's name, but why does one feel that the child is no different from Ji Chuhe's biological child?
