Chapter 74 The Princess Gets Angry
Chapter 74 The Princess is Angry
Chen Yan called the servants who came to the Xu family to deliver gifts and inquired carefully. He learned that those words were told by the Xu family's mistress, but the expression on his face did not change much. If a woman did not have the instructions of the head of the family, would she dare to say such things?
The one who didn't know how to praise was Xu Junze.
Although she knew that the Chen family would be unhappy after hearing what she said, Lin Shuran did not regret it. The Chen family has a prime minister, and the Xu family also has a general. When it comes to backing and power, the Xu family can't lose.
.
Seeing that it was only two days away from the 26th of the first lunar month for Concubine Su's birthday, the only news in the palace was that the concubine was seriously ill, but it did not say that the birthday celebration would not be held. These days, Xu Junze also left early and came back late. The emperor gave him another message in the capital.
He arranged for a "part-time job" - the commander-in-chief of the Beijing Guard Army.
Early that morning, a servant came to report that Lei Yan, the son of the Lei family, had come to pay a visit. When she met Lei Yan in the front hall, Lin Shuran learned that he was here to hang out with Xu Mingchen.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Xu, I will take Mingchen to play in the Cuju Garden. He will never run around!" Lei Yan assured Lin Shuran with a smile.
He was worried that because of what happened at the Lantern Festival last time, Lin Shuran would not allow Xu Mingchen to go out freely anymore, so he came to see Lin Shuran in person.
Soon, Xu Mingchen also came to the hall. Knowing Lei Yan's intention, he turned to Lin Shuran and said, "Mom, can my child go out with Brother Lei?"
"This is your own home. You are free to come and go. You can go wherever you want. However, you must pay attention to safety when you go out and take two more servants with you!" Lin Shuran would not restrain Xu Mingchen and the others just because there was danger outside, but he should
You still need to have some sense of protection.
"What are you afraid of in our Lei family's territory? Mingchen, let's go quickly!" Seeing Lin Shuran agreed, Lei Yan happily picked up Xu Mingchen and walked out. There was already someone waiting for them at the Cuju Garden.
Faced with Princess Qing's question, Lin Shuran did not pretend not to understand, but said truthfully: "I heard some rumors on the way here just now. I guess there is some misunderstanding!"
When she arrived at Prince Qing's Mansion, she was directly invited into the backyard by the nun beside Princess Qing, and then saw the angry Princess Qing in the inner hall.
Lin Shuran was also happy that Xu Mingchen could make good friends. Even though Lei Yan was the second eldest son of the Lei family, in the capital, because of his relationship with the Zhenguo government, no one dared to offend him easily.
"All of you, please step back!" As soon as Lin Shuran arrived, Princess Qing waved everyone to leave, and did not allow anyone to come in to disturb her. Then she turned to Lin Shuran and asked, "Mrs. Xu, do you know why I invited you here?
"
After lunch, Lin Shuran was playing with a few kids in the yard when the boss of Pyrotechnic Kitchen suddenly hurried over and said he had something important to report.
Lin Shuran raised her eyes and took a look at the princess. She was dressed in a splendid dress and looked like a royal daughter-in-law. However, the complexion between her eyebrows and eyes was not very good. She even said a few words angrily and she was out of breath. Her eye sockets were sunken and haggard. Maybe it was
I applied too much makeup to cover up my illness, making my face look even paler.
When she heard that something happened to Xu Mingchen, Lin Shuran felt nervous and asked quickly: "What happened? Did someone hurt him?" Could it be that the Chen family still didn't give up?
"How is this possible!" Lin Shuran thought it was ridiculous when she heard it. Not to mention that Xu Mingchen was only thirteen years old. Even if she didn't spend a particularly long time with this child, she knew that he was a decent and kind-hearted person. How could he possibly molest others?
things to come.
"Everyone says that Mrs. Lin has raised two good daughters, who value love and justice, are gentle and kind. They all say that you married into the Xu family and treated your stepsons very well. I don't care if it's true or not. Today my little daughter cherishes
Qing's reputation has been ruined -" At this point, hatred burst out from Princess Qing's eyes, and then she looked at Lin Shuran with sharp eyes, "Whether it's someone plotting against you or it's a mistake, your Xu family will admit it.
Let’s take Xiqing as my daughter-in-law.”
"Misunderstanding? Huh!" Princess Qing's face turned even more ugly. She picked up the cup and threw it on the ground. "The good son raised by your Xu family didn't learn well at a young age, but he even dared to bully the princess. How brave he is.
!”
At this moment, someone from outside came to report that someone was coming from the Qing Palace and asked Lin Shuran to go to the Qing Palace immediately.
Shopkeeper Jin shook his head hurriedly and told Lin Shuran that just now, the clerk from the Pyrotechnic Kitchen went to deliver the ordered cooked food to the guests. When he passed the Penglai Restaurant, he found that the place was suddenly crowded with people. He said that the young master of the General's Palace had teased and humiliated the Xiaojun of the Qing Prince's Palace.
Lord, he also said that many people saw it on the spot.
"Princess, don't be angry. Anger hurts the liver, and thinking hurts the spleen. Let's talk about it slowly. You are so eager to invite me here, and you must not be just to blame my Xu family. If you have anything to say, you can just say it!" Lin Shuran didn't.
Although she was anxious, she didn't panic. As soon as something happened, Princess Qing rushed to invite her over. This in itself was a bit strange and strange.
"Shopkeeper Jin, help me go out and find out the whole story. I'll go to Prince Qing's Mansion first!" Lin Shuran didn't have time to think too much. She asked Xu An to go out and find out where Lei Yan and Xu Mingchen were before getting on the carriage and arriving.
Qing Palace.
"Shopkeeper Jin, what's going on?" Lin Shuran saw that his forehead was sweating, which showed that the matter was urgent.
Princess Qing slowly sat down on the chair again. Most of her aura suddenly disappeared. Now there are not many trustworthy people around her. If even her little daughter is being plotted by someone, even if she takes a gamble,
She couldn't let those people succeed either.
Princess Qing was stunned. She rarely went out because of physical discomfort, but she had met Lin Shuran a few times three or four years ago. However, she was young and pure at that time, and she was different from the calm and confident woman in front of her. Now
Lin Shuran looks a lot like Concubine Yun in the palace.
The nannies also wisely took the young masters away. Shopkeeper Jin didn't care much and said directly to Lin Shuran: "My boss, something happened to the eldest young master in the house outside!"
"Princess, the matter has not been clarified yet. Maybe this is just a misunderstanding. Should we find out the truth first?" Lin Shuran heard something in Princess Qing's words, especially the sentence "being plotted against others". It seemed that
Today's things are indeed not simple.
"What? I, the princess of the Qing Palace, am not worthy of your stepson of the Xu family?!" Princess Qing suddenly became emotional and angry, and then coughed several times. She quickly took out a handkerchief and covered her lips. Lin Shuran was also worried.
He stood up and came closer and found blood stains on the veil.
"Princess, let me take a look at you first!" Lin Shuran was about to step forward to diagnose her pulse, but was stopped by Princess Qing.
"I'm fine!" Princess Qing took a deep breath, wiped the corners of her mouth, and stood up with force. She didn't allow herself to fall down like this, but looked at Lin Shuran again and asked, "Do you agree to this marriage?"
