Lu Yu glanced at Princess Qinghe who was standing at the top, and said in a cool tone, "Imperial sister, it seems that you are getting better and better. If something like this happened at the banquet you held, you think it would be too big. Is your face shining?"
Princess Qinghe said nothing. Such things happened too often at banquets.
These dandy boys always know how to have fun.
She has always turned a blind eye.
Now that something happened to Fu Jingchao, Mu Cheng has always been at odds with him. It was just a glass of wine, and Princess Qinghe didn't take it to heart.
I didn't expect Shen Xingwan to have such a big reaction.
Princess Qinghe said coldly, "Come here, help Master Mu return to his room to rest."
When something like this happened, the banquet ended early, leaving everyone with lingering fears.
Shen Xingwan returned to the room, washed his hands and changed clothes unluckily.
Shen Ruoyan dared to come after hearing the training, "That bitch dares to take advantage of you. I'm going to teach him a lesson."
Shen Xingwan said softly, "Now is not the time."
If something happens to Mu Cheng at this time, everyone will be suspicious of her.
Moreover, Mu Cheng has a special status, as he is the nephew of the Empress Dowager.
As Fu Jingchao's grandmother, the Queen Mother had an unclear attitude towards her.
Shen Xingwan sighed, as expected, it was annoying to be related to the so-called relatives of the emperor...
Marrying Fu Jingchao is indeed a big trouble.
Qinghong was thinking more, "What if Mr. Mu goes back to file a lawsuit against the young lady?"
"It's okay. Considering that I am currently engaged to Fu Jingchao, the Queen Mother will not embarrass me in this matter."
Fu Jingchao's mother was the Queen Mother's only daughter. She died of illness many years ago, leaving only Fu Jingchao.
The Queen Mother always loved him very much.
As for the emperor, he was not biologically related to the empress dowager, but was only named under the empress dowager's name.
The Queen Mother has always been alienated from the princes and princesses born by the emperor, and is not particularly close to anyone.
Shen Ruoyan still couldn't swallow this breath, "Look for opportunities to make him look good in the future."
——————————————
The next day, Shen Xingwan was woken up by Shen Ruoyan who rushed in while still in bed.
"I have something good to tell you." Shen Ruoyan said in a good mood.
"I'll talk after I wash up." Shen Xingwan got up with sleepy eyes.
After a while, Shen Xingwan, with neat makeup and hair, sat by the window with Shen Ruoyan to have breakfast.
Breathing the fresh air from the river, Shen Xingwan woke up and said, "Tell me what happened."
Shen Ruoyan said arrogantly, "Hmph╯^╰, I thought you really didn't want to know."
As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said, "Mucheng drank too much last night. He went crazy and fell into the water. When he was found and fished out, he was soaked all over and he choked on the water and fell unconscious."
While Banxia was ladling soup for Shen Xingwan, she couldn't help but said happily, "You deserve it, it's all retribution!"
"I heard that I had a high fever all night long, and it was so noisy that I haven't woken up yet." Shen Ruoyan continued.
Shen Xingwan ordered, "Restrict our people here not to go out and move around much these days, especially stay away from Mu Cheng's affairs."
Who knows if dirty water will be poured on her.
Shen Ruoyan raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't worry about that. I heard that the fourth prince who was enjoying the moon outside saw him fall with his own eyes. He couldn't splash the water even if he wanted to."
Shen Xingwan didn't say anything.
Since the fourth prince said that he saw him fall with his own eyes, if there were any other claims, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the seventh prince and question the fourth prince's lies?
As expected, no one had anything to say except privately sighing that Mu Cheng was so unlucky last night.
In the fourth prince's room, Eunuch Gao said respectfully, "Don't worry, Your Highness, he was frightened and fell into the water last night, but this time he suffered some."
The fourth prince said calmly, "Take care of your tail well so that no one can catch it."
Mr. Gao said impartially, "Don't worry, I'm doing my job."
He is also an old man in the palace, and he has never seen any dirty tricks.
It couldn't be easier for him to design a person who fell into the water without leaving a trace or a person who drank too much.
Eunuch Gao wants to step aside and not disturb Lu Yu's reading.
Lu Yu said, "Isn't Mo Zi good at making soup? Let her make a good soup and give it to Miss Shen to calm her nerves."
After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm picking out a few flowers that bloom well and send them to me."
Finally, Lu Yu personally selected a few flowers from the flowers that the palace maid carefully raised with water and bloomed well, and put them in the vase.
During lunch, Shen Xingwan received soup and flowers from the people around the fourth prince.
The delicate flowers are placed in the room, which instantly adds color to the room and makes those who look at it feel better.
The soup also tastes great.
Shen Ruoyan drank it unceremoniously and said, "As expected of a prince, the soup he brought is so delicious?"
"But why did he bring soup and flowers?"
Shen Xingwan said calmly, "Didn't I say it's soothing?"
Shen Ruoyan said oh.
"That fourth prince seems to be a gentleman, and he even spoke out to help the young lady last night," Ban Xia said.
Shen Xingwan didn't take this matter to heart. It was said that the deceased Concubine Ning came from a scholarly family and was a talented and gentle woman.
It’s not surprising that someone like the Fourth Prince can be taught.
Of course, on the surface, the fourth prince has always been a gentle and gentle man, but it is hard to say what he is like on the inside.
Children of the royal family are accustomed to wearing masks and acting.
At sunset, Shen Xingwan was watching the sunset on the boat.
Lu Yu walked over and Shen Xingwan saluted him, "Thank you Fourth Prince for the soup and flowers."
The fourth prince said in a gentle and indifferent tone, "Girls don't need to be polite."
From the beginning to the end, he maintained a suitable distance from Shen Xingwan, and his attitude was neither too distant nor too enthusiastic.
All in all, he is a person who does not make anyone feel uncomfortable.
Shen Xingwan quickly relaxed and concentrated on watching the beautiful sunset on the river.
Lu Yu spoke with a somewhat sad tone, "Speaking of which, my mother-in-law also studied at Shengshi Academy. She often told me about her time there. Those were probably the days she missed the most and was the happiest."
Shen Xingwan listened quietly and didn't say much.
"Has the current Shengshi Academy changed much?" Lu Yu asked very naturally, "My mother and concubine spent their happiest girlhood there. It's a pity that I didn't go to see it with my own eyes."
Shen Xingwan had a good impression of the fourth prince. After hearing this, she thought about it and talked to the fourth prince about the Golden Age Academy in her memory.
Obviously the Fourth Prince was a very suitable person to chat with, and Shen Xingwan chatted with him until dark without even realizing it.
It wasn't until Banxia came to ask her to have dinner that she bowed and said goodbye.
The smile on Lu Yu's face immediately faded the moment she left.
Eunuch Gao was frightened on the sidelines. He had watched Lu Yu grow up, and he had never been a talkative person.
Unusually for me, I said so many things today. It’s hard not to think too much.
Eunuch Gao bravely bent down and said, "Your Highness, she is the future concubine..."
