Chapter 129 An old man

Xiuzhuoyuan and Boling Hou Mansion are separated by a whole long street.

Sang Rong rode a horse from the west of the city to the east of the city. There were few pedestrians along the way, and most of the vendors selling court food had just started setting up stalls.

It was still early, but the eldest princess must have gotten up.

When he arrived at the front of the mansion, the servant saw that it was Sang Rong, so he did not report it and took her to the backyard directly.

The Boling Marquis Mansion is very big, and this trip is half an incense stick. Along the way, except for the guards, there are servants who clean up in the early morning, all of whom are quiet and do their own things.

Sang Rong sighed silently, the atmosphere was almost the same as the palace.

The Xiao family was once a large family with a prosperous population. After the dynasty changed, there were not many people left. After the establishment of the Yan Kingdom, it was passed down from generation to generation. It would be fine if Xiao Chengyi had too much murder and died early. Xiao Xun, who was kind and upright, died in a bad life, which is really sad.

The saddest thing here is the eldest princess! I lost my brother and husband when I was young, and now I lost my only son again. The white man gave me a black man, which makes me feel heartbroken when I think about it.

After Xiao Heng was injured, Bi Yunsheng and Lian Ji decided to bring him back. They were afraid that the eldest princess would worry, so they only reported the news to Taichangqing and His Majesty with a carrier pigeon. Their intention was not to make any statement, so as not to make any acute illness due to the old man being stimulated. I will tell you if he could save him.

"Aunt, we're here, please."

It's the same whether you say this or not. Sang Rong stepped into the inconspicuous small courtyard gate and saw a lush vegetable garden, with all kinds of fruits and vegetables growing well.

She was already very familiar with this place and guessed that the eldest princess would probably be here.

Old women in other families either gossip or enjoy flowers and fish on weekdays, but the eldest princess was obsessed with cultivating fruits and vegetables. She did everything from seed selection to picking, and never let the servants intervene. When the harvest is good, she went to see it everywhere. In the palace, Taichang Mansion and several families with friends have received it.

When you go to court, you can assist in national affairs. When you go home, you can be safe in the countryside and be able to take it and let it go. This is the eldest princess.

"Sang Rong, are you here?"

The old man walked towards her from under a peach tree, his feet steadily but his face looked a little haggard.

She hurriedly met, "When will you get up? Don't be too busy!"

"Anyway, I woke up early, and it's even more uncomfortable to be idle," the eldest princess took the thin scarf handed over by the maid and gently wiped the sweat. "It was Shi Yan who asked you to come again? Tell him, I'm very good, don't worry."

Sang Rong smiled and helped her sit down, "Actually, there is something I want to tell you."

The old man immediately turned his head and looked over. The scrutinized eyes fell on Sang Rong's face, which made her a little nervous. Sang Rong took a deep breath and said quickly: "The little marquis was injured in Jingzhou. Last night, Yun Sheng sent him to Xiuzhuoyuan for his senior brother to treat him. It was no longer a serious problem."

The eldest princess was speechless for a moment. After a while, her tense shoulders relaxed and asked, "What kind of injuries did Heng'er suffer can Lian Ji not cure?"

"He was injured by the Xuangui's shoulder. The wound was not tight, but the invasion of evil and filth was very powerful, and Lian Ji had no choice."

"How is Heng'er now?"

"Don't worry, the evil and filth are almost clear, and the person is awake," Sang Rong bent down and held the eldest princess' hand, "but it will take some time to fully recover. The senior brother means that he will be able to stay in Xiuzhuoyuan to recuperate, and heal faster."

"It's time for the Taichang Mansion," the eldest princess thanked him seriously. "Help me send me a message to Heng'er. Everything is fine at home, so that he can recover from his wounds with peace of mind, and there is no need to worry about anything else."

"Okay, I will definitely bring it there." Sang Rong bowed to the old man and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute." The eldest princess reached out and handed a cloth bag. Sang Rong looked at it. There were big peaches inside, not many, but very fresh.

"Take some back when I come," said the old man happily, "I'll ask someone to give you more when I finish picking it."

Their Taichang Mansion is not short of peaches, but the eldest princess has always been very interested, so everyone has become accustomed to this kind of good intention, and they still regret the mansions that they cannot receive.

She hugged the bag tightly, "Princess Xie."

...

After Sang Rong left, the white-headed old woman sat on the rattan chair without moving for a long time.

Madam Xu, who has been with her for many years, advised: "If the princess is worried, go to Xiuzhuyuan to take a look!"

"Xiuzhuoyuan is the place of Taichang Mansion, and it is not appropriate for me to go there," the eldest princess pulled down a small insect attached to her clothes and said slowly, "Since Shi Yan said it's okay, don't worry, he never tells lies."

"You go to the palace and tell Concubine Chu," she thought about it and instructed her, "Heng'er is seriously injured and needs rest. Don't let the third prince visit you first."

Madam Xu understood the princess’ meaning. The third prince and the young marquis were of the same age and had a good relationship since childhood. However, Your Highness was impatient and would definitely go to Xiuzhuoyuan after getting the news. Maybe they would go every day. The two of them have always been noisy together, so how can they recover from the illness?

Taichang Mansion was inconvenient to stop the beloved prince, so he could only rely on his mother to restrain him.

"Where is the lady?"

When talking about his daughter-in-law, the eldest princess immediately felt worried, "How is Wanrou today?"

"I was staying in the middle of the night last night, and I fell asleep in a daze in the morning. I probably haven't woken up yet."

"When she wakes up and see if she wants to see someone, it won't be fine if she still wants to," the old man sighed and suddenly had an idea again. "I remember Wanrou said that she has a very close wet nurse. She went to Qinzhou a few years ago and told the Chen family. If you can invite me, please come and persuade me!"

There is really no way to do this. The wife's biological mother may not have thought of it. Madam Xu sighed secretly and had a lot of words in her heart, but when she spoke, she would just simply say it.

As soon as Xiao Xun left, the Xiao family collapsed half of the sky. The young prince was determined to be strong, but in grief, he took on the heavy burden of the army. He said he would go on the battle, showing his true nature of the Xiao family. The eldest princess is a person who is used to storms, and the stronger he becomes, and he always thinks about how to take good care of other relatives.

But Mrs. Chen was unable to get out of her sadness for a long time. It suddenly became more serious these days. She looked a little crazy.

My relatives and friends came to accompany him and persuade him, but it was almost useless. Logically speaking, the son who should be closest to the most would cry when he saw him and hugged him and said sad words.

No wonder the eldest princess was not very satisfied with this marriage at the beginning. As the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, Chen was still too weak.

Chen Wanrou was born in a scholarly family. She was beautiful and coquettish since she was a child. She was loved by her parents and brothers when she was at home. When she married into the Xiao family, she was regarded as a treasure by Xiao Xun. She was really a beauty who had never suffered any hardship.

The poor eldest princess is both worried about her daughter-in-law and has to preside over the gifts in the mansion. It’s a joke when she tells it!

"Wanrou is not weak," the eldest princess seemed to see through the maid's thoughts and murmured, "She just loves to ask for her son too much. She regards her husband as the heaven and the earth. She can no longer let go of anything else in her heart, and she doesn't even care about herself."
