Chapter 220

In Danruo Garden, Mu Xiyao squinted her eyes and gestured in front of the bronze mirror again and again, but she was still dissatisfied.

"Your Highness, do you really not feel an eyesore?"

After removing the cotton cloth to remove the ointment, there was a dark brown scar about half a finger long on the forearm, and the sleeves were pulled down so that no one else could see it. But the right cheek from the root of the ear to the lower jaw was scratched by the burr on the handle, which was twice as wide as the wound on the forearm, and the scab on the edge was especially dark.

Zong Zhenglin lifted her chin lightly, her phoenix eyes remained silent.

"Jiaojiao is uneasy?"

"Never." Mu Xiyao raised her eyes, her eyes were full of pride. "Even if you have no face, my concubine can still make the woman next to you so angry that she can't eat."

Zong Zhenglin's eyes froze. This woman is so promising! She really doesn't have any bigger ambitions. If you put more thought into him, you don't need to spend so much time detaining her all day long.

"Your Highness, the chief steward asks to see you."

As soon as Mammy Zhao finished speaking, she saw that Master Yao was moving like lightning, quickly grabbed the face towel, tidied it properly, and then allowed people to enter the house.

In the room, except for His Highness the Sixth Highness, who looked as usual, all the servants and others twitched.

If it is said that a woman likes her face, shouldn't it be because she is uneasy in front of her husband? How come it happened to Master Yao, everything has to be turned upside down? Your highness's face turned around quite a bit under the eyelids of yours just now, for fear that people might not be able to see it clearly. I'm getting nervous right now...

"Your Highness, the blueprint that the side concubine asked to change has already been delivered." The Sixth Highness was on the spot, Tian Fushan did not dare to neglect, and was even more respectful to Mu Xiyao. Not to mention anything else, only Master Yao returned to the mansion, and His Highness came to Danruo Garden in the cellar, his attitude couldn't be more clear.

His Highness ordered the young master to rebuild the courtyard last time, and Danruo Garden was also expanded. But master Yao is very picky about the drawings and has to take into account the existing regulations. This is the third time he has changed.

Mu Xiyao took the blueprint, and secretly complained a lot. It was painted like an ink painting, if it wasn't for her extraordinary imagination, she wouldn't be able to understand it.

Zong Zhenglin watched along with her when he had nothing to do, and found that this woman not only understood clearly, but also made changes that were unique and subtle. Only the garden pavilions are already eye-catching. The details of the side are also well taken care of, especially the Chengqing Courtyard, those new additions seem to be very interesting.

"Is this the Trojan horse that Jiaojiao was talking about?"

Tian Fushan lowered his brows and narrowed his eyes, pretending that he didn't hear His Highness calling Master Yao intimately in private. Both of these two are masters with a temper, talking about rules? That's self-inflicted.

Mu Xiyao gave him a dissatisfied look. What are you shouting about? The bamboo horse that Dawei's children play with is just a bamboo pole, so crude that she doesn't even bother to talk about it. Her son is a good one and the second generation, but he is not happy to be treated badly like this.

Since coming here, what Mu Xiyao feels the most is: Dawei, it is an iron law to fight for father. Since this concept is unbreakable, we have to follow the trend.

No, taking advantage of Zong Zhenglin's prominent status, Mu Xiyao has subtly influenced his son since he was a child, and never calls for equality in this special place. After waiting for Zong Zhenglin to get closer, his son's various visions and styles at that time should be just right, just right for his status.

Zong Zhenglin looked at the blueprint and nodded in satisfaction. Chengqing should be very happy about the Trojan horse. Unlike Mu Xiyao, His Highness the Sixth Highness always dotes on his son according to his will. Even though Mu Xiyao objected to his extravagance many times, Zong Zhenglin still went his own way. In his view, except for studies and life, everything else can be pampered.

Seeing that Zong Zhenglin had nothing to add, Mu Xiyao asked Tian Fushan, "When will the ground be broken?"

Tian Fushan breathed out lightly, and finally got this nod. Not to mention that he looked anxious, even a famous painter was so anxious that he wished he could come to the door in person and ask him face to face.

"The craftsman has already arranged it well, and everything can start smoothly when the master chooses an auspicious time."

"Your Highness, where will the concubine move temporarily due to the expansion of Danruo Court? I can't just keep making trouble like this all day long." Life is too comfortable, and I can't keep things in my heart. As the end came to an end, Mu Xiyao finally remembered that Dan Ruo Garden might not be able to accommodate any more people.

"Why don't I go to your Zhuangzi for a walk?"

Tian Fushan was surprised that Master Yao didn't know that His Royal Highness had made arrangements. Hearing her mention Zhuangzi at this time, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt bad for no reason. Although His Royal Highness has other villas all over Shengjing, for some reason, Tian Fushan felt that Master Yao had come prepared and was looking for trouble.

"Zhuangzi?" In the mansion, she didn't like to get too close to other people, and she had a wild personality. Taking this opportunity, it was really impossible not to rush outside. Zong Zhenglin had expected that she was looking forward to leaving the mansion, but he didn't expect that Mu Xiyao chose the village in the suburbs, but she didn't want to go to the more lively Wujin compound.

People who have always been greedy for peace and happiness are so abnormal, Zong Zhenglin's eyes gradually darkened.

"Don't you have a Zhuangzi in the western suburbs? My concubine heard that guava trees were planted, and I have been thinking about it for a long time."

Xishan Bieyuan, when she wrote these four characters in hand that day, she remembered them in her heart and never forgot them. She remembers the scene clearly that day, Tian Fushan reported that someone was causing trouble, Zong Zhenglin uncharacteristically avoided it, not only went there in person, but also returned after two hours.

And... Helian Minmin barged in yesterday, and seemed to mention Zhuangzi's accounting, but was quickly interrupted by Zong Zhenglin.

With such a combination of two phases, Mu Xiyao became even more curious about the other courtyard in the western suburbs.

If I remembered correctly, apart from Shufan Courtyard, the western suburbs were the second place that Zong Zhenglin avoided talking about in front of her. With this matter, it's okay to try a little bit.

Zong Zhenglin raised his finger with his right hand, and this woman couldn't let her notice any clues, otherwise, with her shrewdness, it would be extremely difficult to perfunctory.

"The Wujin compound in the east of the city has already been tidied up. Isn't Jiaojiao worried about the excitement of the night market? Where should I go?" Zong Zhenglin discussed with her face to face, but his tone was forceful.

Mu Xiyao narrowed her eyes and smiled more joyfully. Sure enough, the test results were not satisfactory.

What on earth could make him so anxious? This is the second time that Mu Xiyao has the same doubts in recent days.

Convinced that Zong Zhenglin would never give in, Mu Xiyao didn't seem to care, she waved her hands leisurely, very easy to talk to. I just kept a note in my heart, that woman has a lot of ideas.

Seeing Mu Xiyao let it go easily, Zong Zhenglin was not happy.

If she really let go, she must have complained and murmured and had trouble with him. If she didn't mention half a word like now, it can only be that this woman has hidden her thoughts and doesn't want him to know. Zong Zhenglin didn't like being alienated by her like this.

"Do you really want to?"

"Didn't Your Highness say to take care of it? Concubine is lazy and enjoys it."

He came back so quickly that even Tian Fushan recognized the name. Master Yao can be so sensible, the entire family does not know how clean it is. Well, needless to say, this one is awkward again.

It seems that His Highness's thoughts are not easy to ponder. Master Yao is not very happy to answer His Highness's request or not, such a conflict is really rare.

Using Zong Zhenglin's original words to block people back, Mu Xiyao was secretly cheerful. The Boss started by himself, trying to hide it, this matter can't depend on her.

It's even more funny, this man feels uncomfortable in his heart, and after forcing her to submit, he still has to be happy. dream!

Mu Xiyao was in high spirits, and she told Madam Zhao, Mo Lan, to pack her bags and get ready as soon as possible. If she can't go there, she might as well live in the courtyard outside the mansion. It's always more comfortable than someone in the prince's mansion.

Zong Zhenglin's chest was blocked by her words, and after a long while, he slowly recovered. Mu Xiyao really deserved it. Even if he forced her, he would have to be scratched by the vengeful woman.

That's all, it's so annoying, but fortunately, she's the only one.

If Mu Xiyao was really well-behaved, today's scene might not be like this. With such a vivid temperament, Zong Zhenglin would not bear to forcefully correct him if it was not necessary.

Seeing that His Highness relaxed his expression and turned around, Mother Zhao had a smile on her face.

Let's just talk about the side concubine's ability, no, it has gradually become a habit for His Royal Highness to be tolerant and accommodating. If it were an ordinary family, what the head of the family said would be reasonable, and there would be no room for women to talk about things. Like His Highness, not only reasoning well with the side concubine, but also considering everything for her first, is already a blessing that can't be expected.

Master Yao's temperament is also strong, but fortunately he knows how to measure, otherwise, this day, Zhao Nanny will find it difficult to think about it.

Mu Xiyao was talking to Mo Lan, the little hand hidden under the wide sleeve was suddenly held by the person on the left. Zong Zhenglin stroked her palm with calloused fingers, soothing her.

It is rare for His Highness the Sixth Highness to be so gentle, so Mu Xiyao is naturally smart enough to let it go. Turning his head to see him with focused eyes, explaining to Tian Fushan about leaving the mansion, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The next day, everyone in the entire family got the news that His Royal Highness would leave the mansion with his side concubine, and return after Dan Ruo Yuan was renovated.

Helian Minmin frowned, and had been silent for a long time. His Highness is so clear that he brings a woman to live outside and leaves the backyard vacant, isn't he afraid of the emperor's blame? Concubine Shu should not agree.

Su Linrou was so angry that the door was closed tightly, and she didn't want to hear news from Dan Ruoyuan anymore. In the next door, Wan Jingwen was sitting in a daze in the Jiangzixuan, unable to figure out why Zong Zhenglin seemed to be a different person this time, with completely different preferences. To say that the Mu family is what he wants, there must be a visible advantage, right? Could it be that Zong Zhenglin actually prefers flirtatious and domineering women in his bones?

When Zong Zhenglin entered the palace to pay his respects, Concubine Shu had already got the news, and hastily pulled someone to sit down, ready to give him a good reprimand.

Although his family also admires the girl to fight for her spirit, and he can raise an heir after he has an heir. But this can't even disregard the rules of the ancestors to favor to such an extent.

"Sixth, it's absurd to leave the back house vacant for a side concubine. In the early years, the crown prince and the first prince did not break the rules in the backyard and were punished by the emperor. It is not a smart person to repeat the same mistakes."

It's not uncommon for a man to have a favorite woman in the backyard. But it is absolutely impossible to be alone. What's more, Emperor Yuan Cheng will be employing someone soon, and he has already mentioned to her about the girl of the Su family twice. Taking advantage of this time, let's explain it to him together, lest he make excuses and prevaricate again.

"What the emperor means, Mrs. Su, you can't be cold."

Zong Zhenglin made careful arrangements before, and He Lian Minmin used the fact of having a child to cover up for him. Mu Xiyao had been doted on in the mansion for a long time, but was kept completely secret by His Highness the Sixth Highness.

Now that she suddenly shows signs of dominating her favor, it's no wonder Concubine Shu is very vigilant and wants Zong Zhenglin to give her an accurate word.
