Chapter 549: Replacement with a Carriage Driver
"Old slave, it looks like it!" Aunt Gao also frowned. This matter is not a good thing no matter how you look at it. The marriage between His Highness Prince Chen and Miss Cousin has been recognized by the Queen Mother and the Emperor. His Highness Prince Xin It would not be good for my cousin to show such an intention at this time.
If the Emperor and the Queen Mother knew about it, they might think that the cousin had hooked up with His Highness Prince Xin.
"It's time to find an opportunity to talk to Concubine Ming about this matter. I believe Concubine Ming won't like Prince Xin and Zhuo Zhuo being together!" The eldest princess thought for a while.
Concubine Ming wanted to find a daughter-in-law who could help Chu Liuxin. Although Zhuo Zhuo was dependent on the Duke of Xingguo, it was the same as not being dependent on him, maybe even worse than not being dependent on him. As for his high position, he had no power. Concubine Ming Your mind will definitely not agree with Zhuo Zhuo.
"What the eldest princess said is that it would be best if King Xin retreats on his own!" Aunt Gao nodded repeatedly. The marriage between King Chen and the cousin is unknown when it will be announced. Before the official announcement, the cousin's reputation must not be damaged, let alone the rumor of the marriage. King Xin and the two were fighting over each other.
But is this young man's affection really so easy to break up?
"Cousin, cousin!" Chu Liuxin shouted loudly from behind. Shao Wanru wanted to pretend that he couldn't hear it, but he shouted so loudly that he could hear it even if he was deaf.
He turned around helplessly and waited for him to run over two fences in a row.
"What else can you do, Your Highness?" Shao Wanru asked with a helpless smile.
"I just want to ask if you are going to Xingguo Duke's Mansion? It just so happens that I have something to do and want to see your elder brother. Let's go together!" Chu Liuxin ran a little faster and took a breath before saying.
"I'm going to Xingguo Duke's Mansion." Shao Wanru turned around and continued walking out.
Chu Liuxin hurriedly followed and said excitedly: "I originally went to find the eldest son, but I was very busy the past few days, so I didn't have time to go. It just so happened that I met my cousin today, so let's go together!"
"Your Highness, was the carriage following me earlier?" Shao Wanru asked.
"Yes, did you find it? I was waiting for your carriage at the foot of the mountain. When I saw you and Miss Shao's carriage coming from two directions, I came over. Xiao Liuzi's method is good, Duke Xingguo's Mansion Madam Tai is ill, so you will definitely come down the mountain." Chu Liuxin said proudly.
Sure enough, it was Chu Liuxin who was following behind. Shao Wanru felt relieved. It was just not arranged by Duke Xingguo.
"How long does it take for my cousin to come out of Yuhui Temple?" Chu Liuxin asked.
"About half a year!" Shao Wanru replied.
"The scenery in Yuhui'an is really nice, but there are too many people in the punishment department recently. I originally wanted to go to Yuhui'an, but it's not convenient. If there is no reason, my father will not let me go to Yuhui'an at this time! "Chu Liuxin complained very much. He actually wanted to go to Yuhui Nunnery a long time ago, but there were too many things that happened in Yuhui Nunnery recently.
"There are relatively few male pilgrims in Yuhui Temple." Shao Wanru looked at Chu Liuxin who was still a little out of touch and said. Compared with the other princes, this one is the youngest and the most out of the box.
"Last time, a fire fell from the sky and burned down the Buddhist temple. After that, men in black appeared again. This Yuhui Nunnery is really unlucky. Anything can happen. Didn't some people go to Yuhui Nunnery to complain before? Don't go. You file a complaint in the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, but you go to Yuhui Temple to file a complaint, what is this?"
Chu Liuxin curled her lips and said rather disdainfully.
Shao Wanru's heart moved, "Why did you go to Yuhui Temple to complain?"
"If you want to file a lawsuit in the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment, you have to go through several passes first. Yuhui'an is investigating the matter. As long as you find the right person, you can sue in one go!" Chu Liuxin said casually, "People from the Ministry of Punishment are investigating. I also took it, I thought it was not a big case, just dealing with a bad boy, but unexpectedly it turned out to be something else!"
"What's going on?" Shao Wanru kept asking. They were coming all the way and were almost at the parking lot.
"The thing about the late emperor's posthumous son is really funny. The late emperor only had a single seedling like his third brother. He is planning to have another one!" Chu Liuxin's eyes also fell on the parking lot, but she only saw Shao Wanru's carriage didn't see him, so he couldn't help but turn around to look for Xiao Liuzi.
He had just run too fast and pulled Xiao Liuzi behind. At this time, he was hurrying over. He turned around a door and finally saw Chu Liuxin.
"My lord, you are wrong, our carriage did not stop here."
"Don't you stop here and there?" Chu Liuxin said dissatisfied.
Shao Wanru took the opportunity to say goodbye to him: "Your Highness, let's go ahead!"
After saying that, he took Yu Jie to his carriage. When he got there, he saw that the carriage driver had changed.
"I've met the Fifth Miss. The servant was sent by the eldest princess to temporarily drive the carriage for the Fifth Miss." The carriage driver said respectfully. He looked to be in his thirties.
"Where are the people from before?" Shao Wanru asked calmly.
"When he stopped here just now, he had a quarrel with a servant in the mansion, and the two of them had a fight. The eldest princess ordered that such a coachman who did not know how to advance or retreat could not drive for the fifth lady. Just now he had sent someone to stop the carriage. He was escorted back to the Xingguo Duke's Mansion." the carriage driver reported.
Shao Wanru nodded, knowing that her grandmother had taken care of the matter, and stepped on the small stool to get on the carriage. Yu Jie also jumped on the carriage. After the coachman got on, he turned the horse's head, skillfully raised the whip, and whipped the carriage. Go to the side door.
Chu Liuxin followed behind and stamped her feet helplessly, getting very angry: "Xiao Liuzi, why are our carriage and Miss Shao Wu's carriage not in the same place?"
"This... I don't know, this slave was like this when he was brought in from the eldest princess's house. Prince, let's go over there!" Seeing that his master was unhappy, Xiao Liuzi replied quickly and cautiously.
"Let's go!" Chu Liuxin said helplessly. He would go back now, even if he went to Xingguo Duke's Mansion, it would be too late.
In the carriage, Yu Jie was also struggling: "Miss, if I change the carriage driver of Duke Xingguo's residence, will it make the wife angry and annoy you?"
"Even if I don't change her, she still annoys me all the time. I don't like her in the first place. If something happens to me just to please her, I might as well not like her!" Shao Wanru said nonchalantly, with a look on his face. Showing a faint smile.
Unless she risked her own life to please Madam Xingguo, but she didn't want to!
For the sake of a so-called grandmother who always wanted to harm her, she really didn't feel the need to please her! The so-called love between ancestors and grandchildren will not be remembered by the madam, and she will also forget it!
"Will the Madam change the person again?" Yu Jie was still worried. The eldest princess's behavior seemed very rough, and the Madam Xingguo was not a soft persimmon.
"It might have happened before, but it won't happen now. Duke Xingguo's government is in a very bad position!" Shao Wanru sneered, with a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
"Do you think the Madam knows that Taoist Master Xiu Shui is a fake Taoist priest? If she knew and still behaved like this, she would be really vicious and outrageous!"
Yujie understood what Shao Wanru was talking about, thought about it and said angrily.
It really didn't look like it was done by a human being. It was a den of whoredom.
"So what if you know, what if you don't know, a mansion like that is disgusting!" Shao Wanru sneered, with a cold look in his eyes.
The carriage suddenly became quiet. Seeing the cold indifference on Shao Wan's jade-like face, Yu Jie felt sorry for her. She was such a good lady, but she met such disgusting and vicious relatives.
On the surface, he looks hypocritical, but in fact he is really cruel and vicious.
The carriage moved forward and soon arrived in front of Duke Xingguo's Mansion. Hearing that Shao Wanru was back, Duke Xingguo's wife took her out with excitement, and the two met not far from the gate.
"Wanru, you are back. Your grandmother was still talking about you just now. Come on, come on!" Mrs. Xingguo had a friendly smile on her face, and the look on her face was very excited, as if it was really because Shao Wanru came to see her. She was so happy because she was married to the madam, and the madam really seemed to miss her.
In fact, the wife was ill, and the letter only asked Shao Yanru to come down the mountain, and did not mention Shao Wanru at all.
Shao Wanru bowed deeply to Mrs. Xingguo: "Second Aunt!"
"Look, this one is as long as a flower, but it has to be in the nunnery every day. Even if your parents are alive, they will be happy to have such a filial daughter like you!" Mrs. Xingguo Gong picked up the handkerchief and pretended to be pretentious. Wiping away her tears, she secretly looked up and down at Shao Wanru, becoming increasingly frightened as she looked at him.
She hadn't seen Shao Wanru for more than two years. She only recognized Shao Wanru at a glance because the woman next to her had gone up the mountain with the concubine.
This girl is so good-looking. Her face is as beautiful as a fairy in a painting. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also naturally charming. This makes Mrs. Xingguo feel even more disgusted. How can a young lady from an aristocratic family have such a natural charm? I mean, even though she behaves like others, her actions look even more feminine.
At the beginning, Princess Qinghua had a kind of charm, and it was a little less charming than the girl in front of her, but even so, she still fascinated her cousin and wanted to marry her even if she was against the madam.
What's so beautiful about such eyebrows? She looks like a lowly child at first glance. How can she be as beautiful and graceful as her own daughter, who looks like the daughter of a noble family?
He felt contempt and disgust in his heart, but it didn't show on his face. He looked like he was smiling broadly. As he let Shao Wanru in, he said something unconsciously, "The previous coachman didn't use it well? If you don't like it, just tell the second aunt. Auntie will give you a new one immediately, you are the fifth lady of Duke Xingguo’s mansion, you can change it to any coachman you want!"
It sounds like these words are all for Shao Wanru's good, but they don't mean much. They are clearly blaming Shao Wanru for changing the coachman on his own initiative.
"The second aunt is talking about the fight between the coachmen? This matter was handled by my grandmother. I don't know the specific situation. If the second aunt feels that there is something wrong, you can send someone to tell my grandmother. What I use now is If my second aunt thinks the carriage driver is a gift from my grandmother, she can tell my grandmother!" Shao Wanru said as he walked in.
Her expression was light and distant, just like Mrs. Xingguo's words, which sounded pleasant to her ears. After thinking about it carefully, how could Mrs. Xingguo dare to question the eldest princess Ruian!
Mrs. Xingguo didn't understand. She hated herself secretly, but she couldn't show it on her face. She could only smile and said: "This kind of thing is a trivial matter. Let's go see your grandmother together!"
This matter is a trivial matter, but you can't attack it yourself. Let's see how this girl ends up when the madam attacks. The eldest princess is too far away, and she can't reach her if she wants to help...
