Chapter 511: The Eldest Sister-In-Law Is Hard To Do 005
What the hell?
Sheng Nuan raised her head and looked at the maid with a dark complexion and a haughty face... She was the personal maid of Xie Ruyue, the eldest lady of Prince Huai's palace.
Xie Ruyue is Xie Yuchen's sister. Prince Huai's palace was sent to Youzhou, and she had to travel a long distance with him.
On the road before, in order to get close to the King of Huai, Xie Yuchen, the original owner flattered Xie Ruyue, both front and back.
Xie Ruyue saw her behavior in her eyes, and while she was full of contempt for the original owner's behavior of not observing women's ethics and trying to reach a higher position, she also enjoyed the original owner's favor with peace of mind.
When Sheng Nuan just started to stew the fish soup, Xie Ruyue was already ready and waiting for Sheng Nuan to take the initiative to serve it to her. But after so long, seeing Sheng Nuan about to start eating, he had no intention of serving it to her.
Xie Ruyue finally couldn't help but sent the maid over.
The maid Lian'er was also used to bossing around in front of her original owner, and turned her nostrils to Sheng Nuan.
Sheng Nuan had no intention of having anything to do with Prince Huai's Mansion anymore. After all, the original owner's request was to stay away from Prince Huai Xie Yuchen.
Xie Yuchen later launched a palace coup, and he was obviously not a peaceful master. It was normal for such a person to take advantage of a woman who came to his door, but he should never have done it when the original owner was reduced to a dancing queen for him.
, and ignore her again.
At least he got her back from Huo Xiao and gave her a stable life. After all, the original owner helped him a lot and paid a huge price.
But he didn't care at all about the original owner's situation and life and death, which shows his cold-blooded ruthlessness.
Naturally, the further away from such a person, the better.
She had no intention of paying any more attention to Xie Yuchen, and naturally she would not pay attention to Xie Ruyue again.
"If you want to drink fish soup, just go and drink it. Tell me what to say."
Sheng Nuan ignored the maid and served the fish soup herself. She called the Zhou brothers and the mute servant over and gave each of them a bowl with pancakes. Then she brought another bowl to Xiao Xuanye.
After five bowls were brought down, not a drop was left in the pot. The maid gritted her teeth and rushed back to complain to Xie Ruyue.
Sheng Nuan soaked the cakes in the fish soup, then knocked on the door frame of the carriage: "Second Young Master."
In fact, she originally wanted the mute servant to send her away. She tried to avoid contact with Xiao Xuanye to avoid misunderstandings, but she was worried that Xiao Xuanye would get angry and spill the fish soup... She had to let him recover quickly, so she came here by herself.
.
Opening the curtain, Sheng Nuan handed over the fish soup: "Have something to eat and we're going to continue on our way."
Xiao Xuanye glanced at her expressionlessly, and before he could speak, Sheng Nuan advised in a warm voice: "Your physical condition is too poor now, and your wounds are healing slowly. You need to eat better to get better."
Hearing her say "poor constitution", Xiao Xuanye's complexion suddenly turned dark.
Sheng Nuan finished her sentence and didn't linger any longer. She carefully placed the bowl inside the carriage and turned around to leave.
In the carriage, Xiao Xuanye pursed his lips and looked at the bowl of fish soup, his expression tense.
He almost immediately wanted to kick the bowl out...that disgusting woman!
However, thinking of his father and brother who were wrapped in horse leather in the smoke everywhere, thinking of his mother who committed suicide due to a broken heart, thinking of the Xiao family's neglect during the funeral, and thinking of how disabled she looked now... Xiao Xuanye finally stretched out his hand stiffly and picked up the bowl.
Sheng Nuan sat by the fire and ate fish soup cakes by herself. She was relieved when she heard the customer service said that Xiao Xuanye had eaten.
In fact, it can be imagined... He personally collected the broken corpses of his father and brother and crawled out of the mountain of corpses in the sea of blood. No one wanted to live more than him.
On the other side, Xie Ruyue angrily went to her brother Huai Wang to complain.
On the south side of the camp, a young man wearing a sapphire blue brocade robe and a gold crown is sitting on a chair covered with animal skins. Looking from the side, he has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose and thin lips. Even though he is on the deserted exile road, he still looks like a man.
Still full of nobility.
It was Xie Yuchen, King of Huaihe.
Opposite Xie Yuchen, a guard in silver soft armor was reporting something in a low voice. When he saw Xie Ruyue rushing over in anger, the guard took two steps back to avoid it.
Xie Ruyue strode up to Xie Yuchen with her skirt in hand: "Brother, that Sheng family actually dares to mock me...Brother, I see that the Xiao family is so sparse and pitiful now. They have taken care of them all the way, but that woman is ungrateful. Brother, in the future,
It’s better to ignore them anymore.”
Xie Yuchen raised his eyes to look at his sister and said in a soft tone: "I understand, you go back and pack up and get ready to go."
He said a word lightly, and he didn't know whether he agreed or not.
Xie Ruyue has always been in awe of her brother Xie Yuchen. Even though Xie Yuchen is a well-known gentleman in Beijing, as gentle as jade, Xie Ruyue is inexplicably afraid of this brother.
She agreed obediently, turned around and left.
Xie Ruyue left, and the guard continued to come forward to report: "...the two people had injuries on their wrists and throats. The fatal injuries were their throats cut and killed with one knife. It was very clean and neat. I don't know if it was done by Sheng."
Xie Yuchen was silent for a moment and nodded lightly: "I understand."
Interest flashed in his eyes.
Could it be that the gorgeous woman with "climb the dragon and attach the phoenix" written all over her face actually hides another face?
The guard held up his hands: "Master, do you want to investigate?"
Xie Yuchen waved his hand lazily: "These two lowly things will die if they die. You can handle them as you see fit."
The guard immediately bowed: "Yes."
After a quick breakfast, the Huai Palace team was basically packed up and ready to set off... Sheng Nuan glanced at the Xiao family's carriage, and then at the Zhou brothers standing next to it.
The original owner had always used Xie Ruyue to ride on the carriage. She would not go now, but it was even less possible for her to squeeze into a carriage with Xiao Xuanye.
Thinking of something, Sheng Nuan asked the Zhou brothers: "Can you drive a car?"
The Zhou brothers immediately bowed: "Go back to Madam, I'll meet you."
Sheng Nuan responded, and then took out a dagger from the space under the cover of the cage and gave it to Zhou Chong: "Take it to King Huai's guards and tell them that I want to trade this weapon for a carriage. If they are willing,
In other words, the cart should be strong and the horse should be strong."
"yes."
Zhou Chong took the dagger with both hands and walked towards Prince Huai's Mansion, beating the drum in his heart as he walked.
Can this dagger be exchanged for a carriage? Or should it be exchanged with Prince Huai's Mansion?
He subconsciously looked down and saw that it was a short sword, and the black scabbard was very inconspicuous. No matter how you looked at it, you didn't think it could be as big as a car.
But this is the master's order, he only needs to carry it out and has no right to question it.
A moment later, Zhou Chong was stopped by the Huai King's guard. He took out his dagger and repeated Sheng Nuan's words.
The guard frowned slightly.
Swapping a dagger for a carriage... Could that woman be crazy?
He glanced at the dagger subconsciously, and then was slightly startled.
The material of the scabbard seemed like something I had never seen before.
The guard thought for a while, took the dagger, and then pulled it out... The crisp golden sound and the dark but cold light when the dagger was unsheathed made him startled. The next moment, the guard said "Wait a moment" and pointed the dagger towards Xie Yu
Chen walked away.
After recounting the whole story, the guard held up the dagger and said, "Master, please take a look."
Xie Yuchen raised his eyebrows lightly and touched the blade with his fingertips...
"Master, be careful!"
The guard hurriedly spoke, but it was already too late. Xie Yuchen felt that blood beads were coming out before his fingertips even touched the blade.
The guard knelt down and said, "Master, please punish me."
Xie Yuchen looked at the blood beads on his fingertips, paused, and slightly curled his lips: "It's a magic weapon...give her a car."
The guard responded quickly.
Xie Yuchen glanced at the dagger again: "You can keep it for me first."
