Su Qingnuan was the first to know the news and immediately rushed to Chunhui Hall to visit Su. However, when she walked into the courtyard of Chunhui Hall, Su Qingnuan was stopped by Grandma Xing and her people. Grandma Xing said to Su

Qing Nuan was very polite, even a little flattering and apologetic in her demeanor and tone.

"Your Majesty has given orders that the Princess and the Queen need to take absolute rest for the next few days and no one will visit her. The seventh girl will go back for the time being and come back in two days."

However, Su Qingnuan refused to leave. She just pulled Nanny Xing to ask about the princess's situation.

"Whether my aunt is seriously ill or not, who will be around to take care of her? Since my aunt was ill, I have been around to take care of her. I don't trust others to take care of me. I told the prince that I am here. Let me

How about serving your aunt?" Su Qingnuan said very sincerely. Halfway through her words, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes.

Anyone can see that Mrs. Su and Su Qingnuan, the aunt and nephew, have a very good relationship. The girl and daughter-in-law are whispering next to her, probably saying that Mrs. Su has not been hurting Su Qingnuan in vain these days.

.

"This old slave should convey the filial piety of the seventh girl. However, the prince has given an explicit order, and it is also for the sake of the princess's health. Naturally, no one around the princess dares to compare with the seventh girl, but there are a few who are careful and can always take good care of her.

Princess, please rest assured, Miss Qi." Grandma Xing said, and asked the little girl to send Su Qingnuan back.

"Seeing as the weather is getting colder now, Miss Qi, don't stand in this windy place, be careful of catching a cold."

Now that the words have come to this point, Su Qingnuan understands that any words she says are useless, but she really wants to see Mrs. Su. Yuxiangzhai is the closest to Chunhui Hall, and Su Qingnuan is always paying attention to it.

Judging from the movements in Chunhui Hall, it can be said that she knows Su's every move better than almost anyone else in the mansion.

The condition of Su's disease is secondary. The key is the cause of Su's disease.

Overnight, Grandma Wang was suddenly adopted. There was no news about the girl and daughter-in-law whom she was most comfortable with. Su Qingnuan had to be anxious. She came to Chunhui Hall for a test. However, the result of this test was that

She became even more frightened and felt at a loss for a moment.

The attitude of the girls and women in Chunhui Hall toward her was the same as before, but they insisted on not letting her see Mrs. Su.

Is this bad or good? Could it be that the old prince suspected and blamed Su because of what she did?!

Su Qingnuan was in a dilemma when she heard footsteps outside the door, and then she saw Rong Chengyi walking in from the outside. Rong Chengyi also heard the news and rushed over to visit Su.

As soon as Su Qingnuan saw Rong Chengyi, her eyes could not help but light up.

"Brother..." Su Qingnuan left Aunt Xing behind, turned around and hurried towards Rong Chengyi, "Brother, you are here. I also want to see my aunt."

"Seventh sister." Rong Chengyi made a comforting gesture towards Su Qingnuan and looked at Nanny Xing aside.

Aunt Xing also hurriedly came over to salute Rong Chengyi.

"Greetings to the Crown Prince."

"No need." Rong Chengyi asked Nanny Xing to get up, "What's going on?"

"It's the prince's order to return the prince." Nanny Xing smiled, but her attitude was not as cautious as in front of Su Qingnuan. Instead, she was a bit neither humble nor arrogant. "The prince has ordered that in order for the princess to rest, no one is allowed to visit her for the time being. Seven

The girl is here, and the old slave is also following orders."

"Oh, what about me?" Rong Chengyi lowered his eyebrows. After thinking for a moment, he raised his eyes faintly and asked.

"Reporting to the prince, the prince's instructions. The prince...is no exception." Aunt Xing's attitude is still neither humble nor arrogant. "Don't worry, prince, the princess's condition is quite safe. After a few days of rest, the prince will come to visit again.

Not too late."

"Since it is my father's order and it is for the sake of my mother and concubine, of course I cannot violate it." Rong Chengyi did not embarrass Granny Xing and others at all. "As soon as grandma went in, she said to my mother and concubine that I have arrived.

After that, I will come back to visit my mother and concubine. Please take good care of my mother and concubine. There is no need to worry about other things."

"Your Majesty is the most filial, I will definitely bring the message to you." Aunt Xing said hurriedly.

Rong Chengyi nodded slightly. Not only did he leave by himself, he also took Su Qingnuan with him.

"Seventh sister, our father is doing it for the health of our mother and concubine, so we should obey." As he spoke, Rong Chengyi took Su Qingnuan out of Chunhui Hall.

Grandma Xing watched Rong Chengyi and Su Qingnuan walk away, and she let out a sigh of relief. She turned around and told the girls and wives who were following her to stay here and watch while she walked to the upper room.

When she arrived at the door of the upper room, Nanny Xing stopped and reported inside. When she heard the old prince inside letting her in, she hurriedly stepped in.

Inside the room, the old prince was sitting on a large chair, looking through the case files on the table in front of him.

"Everyone is gone?" The old prince did not raise his head from the scroll, he just asked this question.

"Prince Qi, the Crown Prince and Miss Seven have all left." Aunt Xing bowed and replied respectfully. Apart from that, she didn't say a single superfluous word. The old prince was sitting here just now. There was movement outside.

She should have heard everything, and there is no need for her to say anything. Grandma Xing has served the Su family in the palace for so many years, and she knows very well when to speak and when to shut up.

You have to say what you should say, but you can't say a word about what you shouldn't say.

Especially after Grandma Wang was adopted, Grandma Xing had to be more cautious, even though she was already a very cautious person. Grandma Wang had been serving the Su family since she was a child, and she was the most arrogant around the Su family.

The most powerful Aunt Su, Mrs. Su almost obeys Aunt Wang. But what can she do? Once she offends the owner of the palace, her lifelong reputation will be ruined in an instant.

It was said that she was raised in honor, just to look good on Su's face. Others may not know it, but she saw with her own eyes how Grandma Wang was taken away. As for the other girls and daughters-in-law in Chunhui Hall, they

Nanny Xing didn't even want to know what happened to her.

With selfish motives in mind, relying on the Su family's trust, she wanted to stir up trouble in the palace. Aunt Wang would be here today, but it was not an injustice. She didn't hear anything more from the old prince, but Aunt Xing didn't.

If you dare to make your own decisions, you can only stand there and wait for the old prince to speak.

Speaking of which, she and Aunt Xing have known each other since childhood. They are both sons of the Su family. The two of them have become Su's confidants. Generally, people outside see them as the same. But in comparison, they are still Wang.

Mammy is more able to please the Su family.

There are some words she won't say and some things she won't do. But Grandma Wang is different. This is why Grandma Wang ruined herself.

At their age and status, what else could they hope for? It would be a great blessing to maintain their current status and be able to live in peace and prosperity. But Grandma Wang obviously didn’t think so. Grandma Wang wanted to

Greater wealth, greater power.

So, Grandma Wang wants to take risks.

Fortunately, she did not have such thoughts. So now that Grandma Wang was "honored", she was kept. Not only did her status remain unchanged, but she also gained more trust from the old prince. Grandma Xing secretly warned herself

, but you must not become so complacent that you forget your appearance. Otherwise, Grandma Wang is a role model.

The old prince was silent for a long time. He didn't know whether he was thinking about something or simply forgetting about Grandma Xing's existence.

"Go down and tell the princess that I will be there right away." After a long while, the old prince finally spoke.

"Yes." Grandma Xing agreed quickly, bowed and left.

Aunt Xing walked for a long time, and then the old prince slowly put down the book in his hand. He stood up slowly and raised his hand to rub his eyebrows. This action revealed his fatigue and old age in an instant.

As soon as the prince stood up, two shadowy servants came over to support the old prince.

The old prince's injury has not yet healed, and no one knows it better than the people who serve him personally.

The old prince seemed a little angry, so he waved his hands towards the two of them. The two people still supported the old prince and refused to move away. The old prince muttered something in his mouth, and stopped insisting.

He came out of the upper room with the help of a personal servant. He did not sit in a sedan chair, but walked slowly across the courtyard.

Finally, the old prince stopped in front of the small Buddhist hall.

Su's recuperation during his illness was not in the upper room of Chunhui Hall, but in the small Buddhist hall across the courtyard. This matter was directly arranged by the old prince, and only a few people knew about it. The old prince also gave the order.

This matter must be kept secret. Rong Chengyi and Su Qingnuan, who came to visit Su today, do not know about it yet.

The old prince was well aware of the impact of this incident, but what Su had done was too much, and he had to make such an arrangement. However, as the princess, Su was the mistress of the palace, and the old prince still wanted to extend this influence.

Keep it as small as possible, and don't let your sons and daughters-in-law know about it. The old prince did this just to make Su's face not too ugly.

Standing in front of the small Buddhist hall, the old prince frowned again and sighed softly.

At this time, Grandma Xing quickly came out of the small Buddhist hall and went to the old prince to salute.

"Your Majesty, the princess is waiting for you." Aunt Xing reported to the old prince.

"Yes." The old prince agreed and stood for a while before being helped into the Buddhist hall.

The light in the small Buddhist hall was not good. After entering the Buddhist hall, the old prince adjusted for a moment before he saw clearly the Su family in front of him. Su family was wearing a simple dress and was kneeling on the futon in front of the Buddha statue, mumbling something.

, seemed to be reciting scriptures. Su's eyes were closed tightly, as if she didn't know that the old prince was coming, and she didn't hear the old prince's footsteps.

This was completely different from what Aunt Xing had just reported. The old prince didn't believe that Aunt Xing dared to make such a fuss, and he immediately understood that Mrs. Su was playing tricks on him.

This situation is extremely rare for Su.

"You all, please go out." The old prince slowly sat down on a chair and waved his hands to send all the waiters out.

Aunt Xing was the last one to go out, and she also closed the door of the Buddhist hall thoughtfully. As soon as the door was closed, the light in the Buddhist hall became even darker. The distance between the old prince and the Su family was not far, but for a moment,

But they couldn't see each other's faces clearly.

"Let me see you." The old prince spoke first.

Su Shi didn't seem to hear what the old prince said at all, she still closed her eyes tightly and muttered words. However, if the light in the Buddhist hall was better, she could see Su Shi's face twitching slightly when the old prince spoke/

Moved twice.

"Why, you are still not convinced, are you?" The old prince asked again when he saw that Su didn't speak. The old prince's tone was not harsh, and even had a touch of kindness and indulgence, more like a relationship between husband and wife.

Gossip is commonplace. Speaking of which, even on ordinary days, it was rare for the old prince to talk to Su like this.

The corner of Su's mouth twitched twice, and then she opened her eyes and looked at the old prince.

"Your Majesty, you asked me if I am convinced. Even if I am, Your Majesty, you don't have to be like this... Your Majesty, you...are too much." All the grievances burst out in an instant, and Su sat back.

On the ground, she almost yelled these words to the old prince. Then she seemed to have exhausted all her strength and just sobbed softly.
To be continued...
