Chapter 144: Accountability
Originally, Chen Yuntang didn't look for Princess Shaoyang, and Jiang Zhenchuan was going to teach Princess Shaoyang a lesson in a few days. Now, since Atang has said that, he doesn't have to do this in the dark, just accompany Atang.
"Okay, I'll have nothing to do in the past few days, so I'll go with you." Jiang Zhenchuan said immediately.
Chen Yuntang didn't expect Jiang Zhenchuan to say this. Although the Jiang family and the Shen family were family friends, the Jiang family had not been in the capital for a long time. Not long after returning to Beijing, their friendship was stopped at the old marquis. Even the old lady didn't have much contact with the country's wife, let alone Chen Yuntang's father.
Now that Jiang Zhenchuan is so tempted to help him, she is really sorry.
Chen Yuntang hesitated slightly, and paused, "Brother Jiang, this is just a matter of the Marquis' Mansion. If you interfere and get tired of the General's Mansion, how can you have a life? You have returned to Beijing. The power in the capital is complicated, so it is better for you and the wife of the country to be low-key."
"This matter is decided, I will accompany you. There is no need to be afraid of offending a princess in the General's Mansion." Jiang Zhenchuan said firmly.
Chen Yuntang refused a few more words, but Jiang Zhenchuan insisted, so she had to agree.
The two families get along with each other and have too much concern, but the relationship is not easy to get along well. Since Jiang Zhenchuan helps her this time, if he has difficulties or the General's Mansion is in trouble next time, she will definitely help regardless of the gains and losses.
"It will be a blessing for Brother Jiang at that time."
Chen Shaoyi had already delivered the letter to the butler of Liujing Bianyuan. He would definitely bring a message when he came back later. If the Shaoyang Princess was not in Liujing Bianyuan, then they would go to the princess's mansion to visit him in person when they returned to Beijing. If she was in a villa, it would be more convenient. Just meet in a villa.
After a cup of tea, Chen Shao was indeed back.
"Return to the Marquis, Princess Shaoyang is in Liujingbianyuan at this time. She invites you to Qushuiyuan."
Chen Yuntang and Jiang Zhenchuan looked at each other, and then they stood up to go to the residence of Princess Shaoyang.
Behind Chen Yuntang, followed by Wing Chun and Chen Shao and several good guards in the mansion. Jiang Zhenchuan led his own team of about ten of his personal soldiers and walked towards Qushui Garden, which attracted many surprised gazes on the way.
Qushui Garden is located at the easternmost point of Liujing Biyuan. When you reach the entrance of the courtyard, you can smell the cold fragrance of wintersweet in the courtyard.
After entering, the entire Qushui Garden was magnificent, and even the chasing veranda was carved with beams and painted buildings. From this, I am afraid that this is the most expensive courtyard in the entire Liujingyuan. After all, the family of the Princess Shaoyang is a wealthy family. You can see from this garden.
When I arrived at the entrance of the yard, there was a female official who was guiding me.
The female official was in her early thirties, with a expressionless face and a mediocre voice. She knew at a glance that she was a man from the palace.
When she saw Jiang Zhenchuan beside Chen Yuntang, her eyes paused, and then she covered the surprise in her eyes. After saluting, she made a gesture of invitation, "Please invite two adults."
Chen Yuntang nodded lightly and walked towards the yard. Jiang Zhenchuan, who was tall and strong, walked one step behind Chen Yuntang. He looked like the most loyal knight guarding Shen Yuntang, and he would always be obeyed the loyal master.
After Chen Yuntang took a few steps, Yu Guang glanced back.
Seeing that the female official who was guiding the way was much behind, she whispered something to the maid beside her, and then the maid ran away from a small path.
Chen Yuntang withdrew his gaze, but his brow frowned slightly.
What is this Shaoyang Princess doing?
Qushui Garden backyard warming pavilion.
A lady wearing a golden and red wide dress was lying on the chaise longue, and two young maids were pounding her legs next to her.
She was holding the book and watching with relish. There were various desserts and fruits placed next to her. The lady ate them from time to time, and she felt as moist as if she was living in the fairy world.
After a while, the felt curtains in the warm room were lifted up, and the sound of messy footsteps broke the tranquility of the room.
The lady frowned and said, "What's the matter, so panicked?"
The maid who came to report the news was scared and knelt on the ground, "Princess, female official Yan asked me to report."
The person wearing a golden and red skirt is Princess Shaoyang. She has a plump figure and fair skin. The corners of her mouth are slightly raised on weekdays, giving people a very close feeling, and it is a kind and gentle face.
But in fact, the Shaoyang Princess is arrogant, hypocritical, stingy, and jealous.
She threw the book in her hand into the maid's arms, and stood up straight by the maid. The slight curve of the corner of her mouth disappeared, "Tell me quickly!"
The maid who reported the news trembled and finished speaking what female official Yan said.
Princess Shaoyang's expression became ferocious.
"This Yongxing Hou is a very young man, and he has brought a helper to me! Okay, you have your plan, Zhang Liang, I have my ladder to pass the wall!"
When the people who were serving the room saw Princess Shaoyang's expression, they all lowered their heads silently, and did not dare to breathe louder, for fear of being implicated by Princess Shaoyang's anger.
Originally, if Shen Yuntang came alone, she had already prepared some remarks, but now she is still supporting her. Don’t blame her for using a little trick.
Her reputation as the Regent's brother is going to be borrowed and used at this time.
After a stick of incense, Shen Yuntang was taken to the main hall of the backyard of Qushui Garden by the female official next to Princess Shaoyang.
"Please sit for a while, I will go and look for the princess." After saying that, female official Yan ordered the maids to serve tea with expressionless face.
Shen Yuntang had a cold face and did not reply to the female official next to Princess Shaoyang. When facing Princess Shaoyang's servant, she had no need to give face at this time.
The tea came up quickly. Before she could pick up the tea cup and taste the tea from Princess Shaoyang, Jiang Zhenchuan, who was sitting beside him, reminded me, "Atang, it's better not to drink the tea from Princess here."
"Don't worry, Brother Jiang, I know the importance of it."
Jiang Zhenchuan returned a comforting smile.
Princess Shaoyang stood behind the screen in the dead corner of the main hall, and secretly observed the scene in the main hall through the gap between the screen fan.
When the Jubao Pavilion held a banquet, she also received an invitation to attend, but she was a female relative. She was received by a married lady from the Marquis of Yongxing's Mansion and did not have the opportunity to contact Shen Yuntang directly.
In the past, I heard that the prince of the Yongxing Hou Mansion was only good at reading books and did not understand the worldly ways. It was no different from a nerd. For some reason, the prince rarely took the prince out for social activities, which resulted in nearly eighteen years of eighteen who had few aristocratic partners who played with him. There were rumors that this young prince was weak and sick, so the marquis's mansion did not let him go out for socializing.
Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, Princess Shaoyang feels that the young prince has no problems with the rumors outside.
The person is a little thin, but his face is not sick. When communicating with the boy from the Jiang family, you can also see that his human nature is sophisticated.
He is obviously a good seedling for his successors, and he is not at all distorted.
