Spring Forest Evening

Chapter 5 Timeline

Aunt Shen looked in her 40s, her chubby figure was comparable to that of Aunt Huang, but she was very flexible and walked very fast. When he passed by Chenfeng, he could clearly feel a breeze blowing by cheek.

Well, Nanny Shen is acting so fast and energetic, Chen Feng couldn't help smiling and touching his nose.

In just a short while, Nanny Shen had already walked up to Shen Fu, and curtly bowed to him: "My lord, this old slave has already asked me."

"Miss Biao came here this morning and said that she wanted to transplant a few rare peony varieties 'Doulu' to the inner courtyard of the mansion. If the prince returns to the inner courtyard at night, he can go and have a look. Miss Biao will plant those peonies for me. On the bank of Shangyun Pool. My lord, this old servant said a lot. There are many people who plant peonies in the capital. Everyone says that peonies like cool and dry places. Avoid stagnant water, heat, and direct sunlight. It grows in the sandy loam soil of the high terrain, and it is easy to grow poorly in the heavy and sticky soil, and it is not tolerant to the hot sun. The weather is getting hotter every day, and those varieties are so expensive. My lord, I am afraid that it will not be easy to feed by the bank of the cloud pool—”

"It's okay, it's just a few peonies, let her make troubles...you go ahead!" Anyway, peonies are the reason why she came to the palace. What Fu now wants to know is the specific whereabouts of Zhou Heng this afternoon.

"Yes, my lord!" Nanny Shen replied, but first turned around and told Chenfeng who was listening with pricked ears: "Morningfeng, I made some pastries in the kitchen at noon today, and Nanny will bring some cakes for you guys as well." If you have some, you go out and taste it, as an afternoon snack."

Well, although it was almost dusk now, there must be some things that he couldn't say in front of him, Chenfeng understood it, and bowed his hands to express his thanks to Nanny Shen, and then hurriedly left the room.

Nanny Shen then continued to report to Shen Fu: "At that time, Nanny Huang directed a few rough women to transplant the peonies in the flower pots to the ground, and Miss Biao asked someone to set up a table in the shade next to it. Sitting on the embroidered bench and watching, after a lot of work, it was noon. After lunch, Miss Biao took a nap in Liufeng Pavilion by the Shangyun Pool. All the bedding was brought by Miss Biao herself. It was planned before."

Although this court is not so strict with girls who are engaged, it is not easy to go to other people's homes, but it is still possible to go to the husband's house, as long as the girl does not feel shy.

This point, other girls will actually avoid it in fear, future mother-in-law or sister-in-law, which one is easy to get along with?But Miss Biao doesn't need to take these things into consideration, anyway, the prince is in the palace now, and if she wants to come, ten times out of ten, the prince will avoid her, but Miss Biao still thinks it is very interesting.

And to take a step back, Miss Cousin can also be regarded as the prince's cousin. When she came to the palace to visit relatives, she always called the prince "cousin" in the past, which made people helpless and could not find any fault.

But she is a girl's house, and she can come and go freely on weekdays. It is nothing more than moving around in the inner courtyard of the palace, but there is no serious elder in the mansion. Miss Biao would take a nap in Liufeng Pavilion several times. , after all, the less people know about it, the better.

Fortunately, the prince trusts his old bones. In the past few years, he has taken care of all the affairs of the inner court. The matter of Miss Biao, let alone outside the mansion, is strictly forbidden to spread outside the mansion.

However, when it came to this point, Nanny Shen also showed a trace of shame on her white and chubby face:

"My lord, today's incident was caused by the old slave's lack of care and almost hurt Miss Biao. The old slave accepts the punishment."

Knowing that Miss Biao had climbed onto the railing of the high pavilion alone this afternoon, even afterward, Nanny Shen broke out in a cold sweat, even though she didn't care about Miss Biao who was determined to come to the palace to be a princess. She is very fond of her, but since the marriage was bestowed by the Empress Dowager, she will be her serious master in the future, if something goes wrong, as the nun in charge of the inner court, she will also bear the blame.

Besides, apart from the common problem of being pampered and spoiled by such noble girls, this Miss Shen is actually quite easy to get along with on weekdays. When she sees her, she always politely calls out "Mommy", but this matter today, I don't know if it is true. Those who are teased are always a little too casual and self-willed.

Of course, no matter what the antecedents were, I didn't block Miss Biao at the first time, and then I didn't rush to protect Miss Biao at the first time, so I was always negligent. After Shen Nai finished speaking, she lowered her head and waited for her lord to deal with her.

"This matter has nothing to do with Mammy, Miss Biao's temperament... Besides, nothing happened, Mammy should continue to talk!" Shen Fu only said lightly.

Nanny Shen didn't insist any more, and saluted Shen Fu again, then collected her mind, and continued to say to him:

"Yes, my lord. Grandma Huang has always acted prudently. At that time, several little maids in our mansion followed her all the time. After serving Miss Biao, she took a rest outside and took care of Miss Biao. Sleeping lightly, there were probably seven or eight people, big and small, in the middle, because the weather is warm now, Miss Biao didn't call anyone, and everyone leaned against each other and took a nap."

"That's how it turned out. After Huang Momo and the others woke up, they realized that Miss Biao had taken a longer nap than usual, so they wanted to go in to wake her up. Who knew that there was no one inside!"

"My lord, this matter, the old slave asked several young maids separately, but their answers were basically the same. I was afraid that I had heard it wrong, so I asked twice more, but they all said that Huang Nam Mammy came out in a panic and said Miss Biao had already got up and she was not inside."

"In the beginning, everyone thought that Ms. Biao might have gone to the poolside to look at the peonies, but after she went out, she didn't see Ms. Biao's figure. She was a little anxious and sent people to look around. In the end, I searched and searched, but I couldn't find it. Hearing what the little maid said, I thought... I came to look for you, so a group of people came to the bamboo forest, and then..."

After finishing speaking, her head lowered. Alas, my prince has been outstanding since he was a child. He is the object of many noble girls in the capital secretly yearning for her. Miss Biao got married as she wished, and she spends all day thinking about how to find ways to get more with the prince. In a few words, it is reasonable for her wet nurse Huang Nao to think so, and it turned out to be the case later.

However, it was a little embarrassing to mention it in front of the prince.

Fortunately, the prince is probably used to Miss Biao's behavior, so he just fell silent for a while, and then explained lightly: "Morning Wind indeed saw Miss Biao in the bamboo forest, and she was alone at the time. In a hurry, I want to go to the rockery."

Shen Momo was relieved when she heard this. The prince's words were obviously trying to find excuses for Miss Biao. Miss Biao must have woken up from a nap and remembered the previous worry about wanting the prince to sign and pledge, so she was unwilling to run away. I went to the outer study to look for the prince, but the prince still refused to agree, so Miss Biao ran to the rockery in anger, and climbed onto the railing of the pavilion to scare the prince.

In fact, nothing happened to Miss Biao, the prince clearly heard the news and rushed over to stand underneath.

Shen Fu didn't know what Nanny Shen was thinking, so he asked her a few more details, and then waved her away, and when Chen Feng re-entered after eating the pastries, he saw the same type of closed eyes as before. The prince knocked on the table thinking about it, and Nanny Shen seemed to have never been here...
