Chapter 195 195 Rare (first update)
After acknowledging their marriage, Duke Mu and his son had errands to do, so they both left in a hurry.
The atmosphere in the main hall became less unfamiliar than at first, and the atmosphere became much more harmonious.
The Crown Prince’s wife and her two sisters-in-law did not dare to say too much at first, because they were afraid that Chu Qianchen would not be able to think about it. After all, they were the proud girls of heaven, but they had been tortured like this for more than ten years. Even those who had lived to their age It's hard to even think about it, let alone Chu Qianchen, a little girl who hasn't even had haircuts yet.
After the acknowledgment just now, they could all see that Chu Qianchen had a calm and generous temperament and was calm beyond his age. They didn't have to be as careful with her as they were with a porcelain doll.
Mrs. Shizi showed a kind smile and said: "Qianchen, His Royal Highness King Chen is not in Beijing. You have nothing to do in the palace alone, so you often come to the Duke's palace to play."
"Yes, you are young, don't stay at home all day long." Mrs. Shen Er said, "If you don't understand anything, just ask your grandmother and us."
Mrs. Mu Guogong believed deeply and nodded frequently.
The two ladies of the Shen family said it tactfully, but both Chu Qianchen and Hu Hu could hear it. They were afraid that Chu Qianchen, the happy new princess, would not be able to suppress the servants of Prince Chen's palace, and that she would be looked down upon by others.
Chu Qianchen was never a familiar person, so he responded obediently: "Thank you, eldest aunt and second aunt, for your teachings."
Mrs. Shizi, Mrs. Shen Er and Mrs. Shen San took care of Chu Qianchen again, worried that she would not be used to the food and accommodation in the palace, and also worried that she would be bullied because she did not understand the housekeeper...
Chu Qianchen knew that they all had good intentions, and they all meant so.
She was so well-behaved, and the Crown Prince and the others became more and more worried. They felt that her life in Prince Chen's Mansion might not be easy, so they thought that they would let her come over to the Mansion often to get some fresh air, or let some of her cousins go to the Prince's Mansion to keep her company. she.
amber:"…"
Amber felt it was hard to explain.
In the palace, when the prince is not around, it is the princess who makes the decision.
Even if the princess overturned the entire palace, no one would dare to say otherwise. Even Jiang Yuan, Yun Zhan, and Xue Fengyan would roll up their sleeves and help the princess demolish the house together.
Who dares to bully the princess? !
But these words are not appropriate to say everywhere. Amber lowered her eyes silently and counted the tassels on the toes of her shoes.
After everyone talked for a while, the Crown Prince's wife made some excuses and called away the sisters-in-law and the younger members of the Shen family, wanting to give them some time together.
Shen Wan originally planned to leave, but she was willing to leave, but Gu Zhiyan refused. She remained motionless and tightly held Chu Qianchen's skirt with one hand, as if she was afraid that Chu Qianchen would escape.
"..." Seeing her daughter's bird-like appearance, Shen Wan wanted to persuade her, but as she spoke, the corner of her eye glanced at the pumpkin-shaped sachet on Gu Zhiyan's waist.
This sachet was given to Gu Zhiyan by Chu Qianchen last time.
Shen Wan couldn't help but remember that when the cousins first met at the Yongding Marquis Mansion, Chu Qianchen gave Qiniang a sachet.
It was a crescent-shaped sachet. When she found it, she was afraid that the sachet was inappropriate, so she asked Aunt Rong to go to the Hou Mansion to ask the eldest sister. Chu Qianchen admitted it calmly and said that she had the ability to calm down and concentrate. effect.
At that time, she only felt that Chu Qianchen was flattering and was deliberately trying to please Qiniang.
Now it seems that her daughter's heart is like a mirror. She knows who is really good to her, that's why she likes Chu Qianchen so much!
Shen Wan looked at the two people with gentle eyes.
Chu Qianchen stuffed a candied fruit into Gu Zhiyan; Gu Zhiyan gave Chu Qianchen his candy to eat.
Chu Qianchen tidied Gu Zhiyan's clothes; Gu Zhiyan leaned against Chu Qianchen in an awkward manner.
Shen Wan found that her niece was really good at taking care of people, so it was no wonder that her daughter cared about her.
Shen Wan and Gu Zhiyan didn't leave the Duke's Mansion until halfway through Shenshi.
The red-wheeled carriage of the Duke's Palace accelerated little by little, and Gu Zhiyan still looked back reluctantly in the direction of the Duke's Palace, which made Shen Wan feel a little sour.
"Qiniang, do you like your cousin so much?" Shen Wan asked.
"Yeah." Gu Zhiyan nodded vigorously.
Shen Wan asked again: "Then...where is this sachet?"
Gu Zhiyan replied obediently: "I like it."
Her hand went to squeeze her sachet again, as if she was holding some treasure.
Shen Wan couldn't help but ask again: "Why?"
Gu Zhiyan looked at Shen Wan with an inexplicable look on her face, her black and white eyes as pure and clear as a baby's, and answered concisely: "Because it's good!"
Good cousin, so is the sachet.
Shen Wan was stunned for a moment, amused by her daughter's appearance.
"Yes, that's true." Shen Wan nodded seriously, smiled and said in a scolding tone, "Then why didn't you tell mother earlier?"
The look in Gu Zhiyan's eyes at Shen Wan was even more strange. The look in his eyes seemed to be saying, is there any need to say it? !
Shen Wan was amused by her daughter again. She couldn't stop smiling and looked radiant.
She stroked her daughter's smooth jade cheek, bowed her head and kissed her on the cheek.
Gu Zhiyan followed suit and raised his head to kiss her mother on the cheek. Seeing the happy mother and daughter, Grandma Rong felt as if time had returned to the past.
She felt both happy and sad at the same time, sighing secretly that her princess had finally managed to survive.
It will be fine. As long as the county owner can get better, everything will be fine.
"Princess, County Lord, let's have a cup of tea." Nanny Rong smiled and went to get the teapot next to her. But at this moment, the carriage they were riding in suddenly stopped amidst the neighing of the horses.
The carriage stopped so quickly that even the teapot in Nanny Rong's hand tipped over, and some tea poured out from the spout... Fortunately, she reacted quickly and quickly put the teapot flat again.
Shen Wan's reaction was equally quick. He immediately put his daughter's petite body in his arms, preventing her from bumping into her.
Grandma Rong frowned and scolded the coachman outside: "Old Li Tou, what's going on?"
The coachman, Old Li, was an old man in the county prince's palace. He was always the most reliable driver, so he was sent to drive their princess.
Old Li Tou stammered: "Someone stopped the carriage."
Lao Li was sweating profusely and was still in shock.
Just now, a woman suddenly rushed out of an alley and knelt down right in front of the carriage, frightening him greatly. If he had been one step slower, he might have killed someone.
Grandma Rong opened the door of the carriage and went down to check the situation.
Less than ten feet away from the Zhu Lun Chai, a woman with messy hair and a purple dress was kneeling. The woman was nearly thirty years old, and she was still quite pretty. She had a plump figure and was in a state of embarrassment. There's something charming about it.
"Who are you and why are you blocking our palace's carriage?!" Aunt Rong frowned and asked rudely.
For some reason, she felt that the woman kneeling on the ground looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.
Seeing that someone was here to block the carriage in public, some passers-by on the road stopped walking and looked over curiously. After a while, many people gathered around.
The woman who was kneeling on the ground took a few steps in the direction of Zhu Lun Chai and said excitedly: "Aunt Rong, my family is Furong from Manchun Tower. Don't you remember my family?"
The three words "Manchun Tower" caused an uproar in the surrounding area.
Even if you have never eaten pork, have you never seen a pig running? As soon as the name Manchun Tower is heard, it means the place of Qin Tower and Chu Pavilion!
A brothel girl came to stop the prince's carriage in the street. Even if she thought about it with her toes, she knew that there must be some wonderful and wonderful love story of a wealthy family, such as some romantic prince who visited the Chu Pavilion of Qin Tower and spent a lot of money on an oiran, which made the princess dissatisfied. something.
"..." Grandma Rong's heart skipped a beat, and her expression changed instantly.
Manchun Tower? !
Shen Wan in the carriage also heard Furong's words, and her expression was equally ugly.
She will never forget Manchunlou.
At first, her daughter Gu Zhiyan was abducted by Prince Jing's concubine, Mei, and sold her to a brothel called Manchun Tower near the capital.
Later, they found the disfigured Gu Zhiyan, but Mei escaped and her whereabouts are unknown.
The Mei family was just an outcast, and it was before Prince Jing married her. Shen Wan originally had no hatred for the Mei family, but what Mei did did offended her.
She had been looking for Mrs. Mei, but she could never find him. In June, Mrs. Mei left a boy at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, saying that he was the illegitimate son of Prince Jingjun. Shen Wan originally wanted to follow this clue to find out the Mei family, but in the end, she only found out that the boy was not an illegitimate child at all, but that the Mei family had obtained it from an unknown charity hall specifically to disgust her. As for the Mei family, they still haven’t been found.
Thinking of Mei's family, Shen Wan's heart was aroused with deep-seated hatred, which was difficult to calm down.
I didn't expect that I would suddenly meet someone related to the Mei family and Manchun Tower today.
Could it be that Mrs. Mei asked her to block the carriage and cause trouble?
Shen Wan's face was as dark as water, and she felt an uneasy feeling that the one who came was not good and the one who was good would not come.
Gu Zhiyan curled up in Shen Wan's arms and trembled slightly. She seemed to have remembered something, and her face turned pale.
Shen Wan hugged her daughter with one hand, raised the corner of the car window with the other hand, and looked at each other in understanding with Nanny Rong outside the carriage.
Grandma Rong has also thought about it.
No wonder she felt that this woman looked familiar. She had personally accompanied the princess to Manchun Tower to bring the county lord back. She must have seen this Furong in Manchun Tower before.
Aunt Rong shouted sternly at Furong: "How dare you, such a crazy woman, dare to block the palace's carriage!"
"Come on, take down this crazy woman!"
The reason why Aunt Rong gave this order was that on the one hand she wanted to seal Fu Rong's mouth and prevent her from talking nonsense, and on the other hand she also wanted to see if she could find out the whereabouts of the Mei family from her mouth.
Immediately, two big-bodied women with round waists took the order and strode towards Fu Rong who was kneeling on the ground, intending to cover her mouth and take her away.
Furong did not dodge, but looked at Shen Wan in the carriage through the car window.
She smiled, a smile that was hollow, cold, desperate, and full of deep malice.
Shen Wan's heart skipped a beat, feeling as if something cold and cold was wrapped around her, and her limbs felt cold.
