260, Ah Fu?!(1/2)
After talking about these two people, Chu Ling's eyes fell on Shao Guiyuan. Shao Guiyuan was two years older than Huang Jingxuan and looked more calm. But even so, when Chu Ling's eyes fell on him, she still couldn't help but her scalp was slightly numb.
Shao Guiyuan gritted his teeth and said helplessly: "Princess, I'm...well, nothing is wrong."
Chu Ling blinked and smiled, "I didn't say you have something to do. Why are you doing so nervous?"
"..." Shao Guiyuan turned his head to see Jun Wuhuan. Jun Wuhuan raised his eyebrows and ignored him. Chu Ling said: "You know each other before?"
Jun Wuhuan nodded and said, "Know."
"When did you meet?" This doesn't look like you had just met you, you are obviously an acquaintance. Jun Wuhuan said, "Eighteen years ago?"
"..." It turned out that I met when I was a child, so that Jun Wuhuan could be honest with him. It seems that Mr. Shao should be someone that Jun Wuhuan trusted. However, these things are obviously not suitable for discussion here. Chu Ling didn't care about it and naturally changed the topic and said, "Mr. Shao is now an official in the court?"
Shao Guiyuan nodded and said, "From the fifth-grade Privy Council, he received the order."
"Prince Academy?" Chu Ling praised: "Young Master Shao is young and promising." The Privy Academy and his subordinates are in charge of military and political affairs, and they are not allowed to enter as long as anyone wants. Moreover, Shao Guiyuan seems to be at the fifth grade if he is less than thirty, and his grade is not low. With Shaoyang Bo Mansion as his backer, he will definitely have a bright future in the future.
Shao Guiyuan smiled and said, "The princess is a mistake. She lives in a corner and lives a life of silence. Where can I be young and promising?"
Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Shao Guiyuan's eyes a little deeper.
Shao Guiyuan smiled and said, "There is no other meaning to come to see the princess today. I just want to say that although Shao can't do anything big, some small things can still be done. Shao and Brother Changli are old friends. If the princess has anything to do to Shao, she can just speak."
Chu Ling nodded and said, "Then I would like to thank Mr. Shao."
Young Master Huan Yu stretched his waist beside him and said, "You want to see the princess now, and the matter is over. Let's go first? Don't wait a moment, my cousin thinks that there are some conspiracies when we hide."
Shao Guiyuan obviously knew Duke Xiangguo, and patted Huan Yu on the shoulder with a little sympathy and comforted him: "Duke Xiangguo cares about you too."
Huan Yu raised his hand and pushed away his claws, and spit out a word expressionlessly, "Get out!"
Shao Guiyuan frowned and shook his head repeatedly, "Xiao Liu, you have been out for a few years and have become more rude. No wonder Duke Xiangguo wants to take care of you." Huan Yu rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Will you go? If you don't leave, be careful Jun Wuhuan will lift you up and throw it out."
Shao Guiyuan said: "Let's go, I haven't gone to celebrate the birthday with the old lady yet. Let's go together."
Huang Jingxuan and Zhao Jilin believed that they were Chu Ling's subordinates now, and bowed to Chu Ling in a good manner before following them downstairs.
Listening to the four people's footsteps, there were only two people left on the small building.
Chu Ling couldn't help but chuckled and shook his head. Jun Wuhuan said, "What is A Ling laughing about?" Chu Ling said, "That Young Master Shao, is your friend when you were a child?" Jun Wuhuan nodded and said, "Brother Shaoyang is my father's comrade. Back then... I was able to escape smoothly, and Body Shaoyang also secretly helped a lot."
Chu Ling nodded, "That's it, where is Huang Jingxuan and Zhao Jilin?" Jun Wuhuan hugged Chu Ling and said, "The two have a good relationship with Shao Guiyuan and are also a little involved in the family. Don't you think... Zhao Jilin looks familiar?"
Chu Ling blinked and said, "Zhao Boan's younger brother?"
Jun Wuhuan nodded, "The Zhao family already has a Zhao Bo'an joining the army. Zhao Jilin is the youngest son of the Zhao family. Although the Zhao family has lost some of the relationship between the Baili family over the years, its foundation is still there. The Zhao family will never let the youngest legitimate son run to the battlefield. However, Zhao Jilin has been thinking about going to the battlefield since he was a child, but unfortunately the Zhao family has been in charge of him and he has no chance.
Chu Ling supported her chin and said, "Young Master Changli will cause trouble for me. I abducted the sons of the Huang family and Zhao family. Can I have a better future?"
Jun Wuhuan lowered his head and kissed her brow lightly, "The Huang family and the Zhao family are both good. As long as you can recover them, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."
Chu Ling looked at him, "I knew you did it on purpose."
Jun Wuhuan said, "Your identity is special. Even if you are a young man like Huang Jingxuan, you dare not approach him at will. I am just setting a thread for them. It would be useless if Ah Ling looked down on them."
Chu Ling nodded and said, "I know you are trying to help me."
Jun Wuhuan chuckled and said, "If I don't help you, who else can I help?"
Chu Ling said, "You have been here all the time, will there be no problem with Cangyun City?" Jun Wuhuan sighed, "I have to take the city lord's wife back for them. If I go back alone, they might think I was abandoned by A Ling. How pitiful, can A Ling bear it?"
Chu Ling smiled and said, "I'm willing to give up."
Jun Wuhuan was helpless, "I can't bear to leave."
Chu Ling poked his shoulder speechlessly, and Jun Wuhuan laughed and said, "Don't worry, Yu Bai and the others are here, and Xie Tingze is in charge. The people of Northern Jin should not have much time at the moment, and there will be no trouble."
Chu Ling raised her eyebrows and said, "I only remember when I talk about this. You took the biggest advantage in Xinzhou. No wonder you worked so hard at that time." She thought that Mr. Changli was chivalrous. Jun Wuhuan nodded and said, "It was indeed I who took the biggest advantage."
"Hmm?" It was refreshing to admit it.
Jun Wuhuan whispered: "Because I met A Ling, I took all the biggest advantage in this world."
Chu Ling chuckled, "Young Master Changli has such a sweet mouth. No wonder it is so easy to attract peach blossoms. Look at this little peach blossom today?"
"I have no blessings to live up to my life." Jun Wuhuan sighed: "There is only A Ling, my peach blossom."
The atmosphere on the other side of the garden is not so warm.
Yu Nishang stared at Yu Yinruo standing in front of her with a cold expression. Her small face was not as cute as before. Yu Yinruo looked at Yu Nishang and the people staring at her around her with some anxiety, and whispered: "Miss Qi... Seven..."
Yu Nishang snorted and said, "Yinruo, what did you want to do just now?"
Yu Yinruo shook her head repeatedly and said, "No...I didn't do anything, Miss Seven, I did nothing. I just accidentally..."
"What are you not careful?" Yu Nishang said coldly. Although the two of them were about the same height, Yu Nishang was even a little shorter, but it gave Yu Yinruo a feeling of looking up. This made her feel very uncomfortable, but she had to bear it. Because Yu Nishang was the daughter of the Yu family, and she was just an outer girl of a concubine.
Yu Nishang stared at her and said, "Young Master Changli and this sixth brother came back a few days ago and you have been acting like a demon. If you want to be dead, I can't control you, but you'd better remember it for me. If you dare to do anything that damages the reputation of the Yu family, don't blame me for being rude!"
"I don't." Yu Yinruo's eyes were red with grievance and said tremblingly: "Miss Seven, I don't, I dare not...really, I'm just accidentally..."
"Okay!" Yu Nishang interrupted impatiently, "I don't want to listen to your messy things. You'd better remember it for me and take care of yourself. Come and send her back. Don't let her come back to the garden again today."
"Yes, Miss Seven." Two girls came in from the door and said respectfully.
"I...I won't leave!" Yu Yinruo said.
This was the first time Yu Yinruo refuted her words in public. Yu Nishang raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Yu Yinruo. This is how she has grown.
Yu Yinruo said with red eyes: "I am also my grandmother's granddaughter, why don't you let me attend the birthday party?"
"In order not to let you lose your face in the Yu family." Yu Nishang said.
"You slander me! Why did I lose the face of the Yu family?" Yu Yinruo said.
Yu Nishang said, "Did I slander you? You know in your heart that you can look better when you go back now. Otherwise, I will ask Brother Six, what have you done below just now?" Yu Yinruo trembled, bit the corner of her lips and lowered her head and left with the girl.
When the girls following Yu Nishang saw Yu Yinruo's appearance, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for her. After all, most of them are concubines, and their status is far less noble than Yu Nishang. Yu Nishang glanced at them coldly and said, "If you think you are the same as her, go and comfort her."
Everyone's face changed, and they instantly threw the little bit of sympathy behind their minds. Although they were concubines, they were also serious girls. They were different from those of Yu Yinruo's outer daughters and their biological mothers were brothel women. Compared with her, they had no insult to their identity.
Yu Yinruo was watched by two girls hurried to the Yu Mansion next to the garden. When passing by the entrance of the garden, he heard noisy operas and cheers coming from the theater not far away, and couldn't help but stop.
"Miss Yinruo, please." The girl beside her reminded.
Yu Yinruo's face changed, she turned around and slapped it on the girl's face, and said, "What are you? You dare to instruct me!"
The little girl was caught off guard, and her originally fair smile immediately turned red. She covered her cheeks with grievance and said, "Yes... it was Miss Seven's order, I have no choice." Why didn't I dare to swear to Miss Seven if I was angry?
Yu Yinruo gritted her teeth, looked back at the Changshou Pavilion not far behind her, and turned around and walked towards the gate.
She can't keep doing this! She can't be trampled by these bitches for the rest of her life. She must...be sure...find a way!
Thinking of the handsome and elegant young man, Yu Yinruo suddenly felt her heart beating like a fierce person and her face was red.
In the hall of the Yu family, Mrs. Yu was talking with Princess An Xin. Mrs. Yu was also standing beside Mrs. Yu, who was there for a moment, and she felt a little happy for the host and the host.
Princess An Xin looked at Mrs. Yu and asked casually: "I heard... Princess Shenyou is also at the Yu family today?"
Old Lady Yu was stunned and nodded quickly with a smile and said, "That's right, it's also the blessing of the old woman. The princess and the princess are here." Princess An Xin is bright and charming. Although she is in her early forties, she still looks radiant and looks so beautiful. Compared to Princess Boning, who is more low-key and gentle, she has always been the leader among the noble ladies of Pingjing.
Princess An Xin smiled and said, "It's said that after the princess came back, she has been very busy and she has no chance to talk to the princess. It's coincidental that everyone is here today, so I should pay my respects to the princess." This is reasonable. Princess An Xin is a county princess after all, so she is naturally not as good as the emperor's daughter in terms of identity.
"The princess is enjoying the scenery in the garden, princess..." Before Mrs. Yu could finish her words, a voice of a manager's report came from outside, "Your Highness the Princess is here."
The smile on Princess An Xin's face became even stronger and she smiled and said, "Look, isn't this a coincidence?"
Chu Ling walked in from outside, and the first thing he saw was Princess Anxin, who was sitting in the first place in the lower head. Compared to Princess Boning who had been in contact with several times, Chu Ling was not very familiar with Princess Anxin. Now the two princes in Pingjing are not brothers of Emperor Yongjia. In terms of bloodlines, Prince Boning is closer, but Prince Boning has few descendants. The only legitimate son was injured when the tribe invaded the land and passed away a few years later. Only a child who was still in his infancy was left. There were two concubines, so the Prince Boning seemed very low-key.
Prince Anxin is a few years younger than Emperor Yongjia and Prince Boning. Prince Anxin is now the step-in-law, and both princesses can be born. Therefore, in the Tianqi Royal Family, where the descendants are not prosperous, Prince Anxin's lineage can be considered lush and lush.
Therefore, there has been some news in the court earlier that Your Majesty wanted to adopt a young man from the Anxin Palace as his heir. However, Your Majesty has been suppressing this matter, so outsiders dare not talk much. But everyone understands that if Your Majesty cannot give birth to a prince, he will sooner or later have to adopt a heir. Compared with the few vassal kings who are far away from the fiefdom and are also not rich in blood, and the only one left of the Boning Prince who is said to be in poor health and two unscrupulous sons, the Anxin Prince's Mansion, which has only five legitimate sons, is obviously the best choice.
Therefore, even if there is no expression on the surface, people's attitude towards the Anxin Palace will naturally change a little. At the beginning, the Anxin Palace was quite cautious, but Emperor Yongjia never expressed any dissatisfaction. Gradually, the Anxin County Prince did not show any intention of winning the position of his descendants, but his words and deeds were inevitably a little more arrogant, and he even made friends with many powerful and important officials in the court intentionally or unintentionally.
The thoughts of Princess Anxin’s Mansion are a little complicated about the just-returned Princess Shenyou. Although a princess cannot affect the overall situation, it may not affect the thoughts of Emperor Yongjia. Logically speaking, Princess Anxin’s mansion should have a good deal with Princess Shenyou. However, Princess Shenyou’s reputation these days has made Princes Anxin a little afraid, and always feels that this princess is not a good-for-nothing lamp.
After these days, I finally couldn't help it anymore, so I took advantage of the opportunity of the Yu family's birthday party to explore the princess's background.
"I've seen the princess." Seeing Chu Ling come in, Princess An Xin immediately stood up to greet him and greeted him with a smile.
Chu Ling nodded with a smile, "Hello Princess Anxin, is this... Princess Chunyu?" Chu Ling looked at the beautiful girl who was following Princess Anxin, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen her in the palace before. The princess has a good appearance. The princess is so lucky."
Princess An Xin pulled the girl beside her and smiled and said, "This is the little girl Yu'er, who is fifteen years old this year. She was not very good a few days ago. She has been recuperating in the villa outside the city and has not come back to welcome the princess back to the court. Please don't be surprised by the princess. Yu'er has seen the princess Shenyou."
The girl looked at Chu Ling, lowered her eyes and bent her knees slightly, "Chun Yu has seen Princess Shenyou."
Chu Ling smiled and said, "I am two years older than the princess. If you don't mind calling me sister, you'll be."
Princess Chunyu hurriedly said, "The princess is the legitimate daughter of Your Majesty, Chunyu dare not do this."
Chu Ling smiled and looked at the generous and decent girl in front of her with interest. Although Pingjing is not as lively and interesting as Shangjing, these people's acting skills are ten streets above those of Beijing. Princess Chunyu is only fourteen or five years old, and she is not inferior to these powerful edicts when acting. Should she be considered a royal family?
It was obvious that she looked down on her and didn't want to call her cousin, but she seemed to be more respectful to the princess when she said it.
However, Chu Ling didn't really want a cousin, but she just thought the mother and daughter were interesting and tried it out.
Princess An Xin felt that the princess looked at people with a strange look. She stepped forward and blocked Princess Chunyu without any trace, and smiled and said, "The princess just came back, and I dare not go and disturb her rashly. Today I happened to meet at the Yu family and I am destined to pay my respects to the princess two more cups later."
Chu Ling smiled and said, "You are polite to the princess. We should pay more to the elderly and birthday stars in a while."
It is always inappropriate to celebrate the birthday of someone else's house, but throw the birthday star aside. Princess An Xin nodded quickly and said yes, but the smile on her face inevitably became a little stiff. This princess really doesn't look like she grew up in the Washing Garden.
The bustling of the Yu Mansion lasted until the evening, and the lights shone brightly on the entire Yu Mansion, which was even more lively, noisy and joyful.
To be continued...
