"She is indeed a good wife that I personally selected!" The old lady put away her facial hair cherishingly.
"You must be tired after being out for a day. Go back and have a good rest."
Su Nianyun nodded and stood up to say goodbye.
When she came out of the old lady's courtyard, she asked Aunt Liu, "Has the coachman given his instructions?"
Aunt Liu nodded, "Princess, don't worry, I'll give him a good word."
"Niu Er seems to be a simple and honest person but sensible. He knows what to say and what not to say."
Sure enough, just after Su Nianyun returned to Tingfeng Courtyard, Wen's mother sent someone to call the coachman Niu Er into the old lady's room.
"Where did the princess go today?"
Niu Er is just in his early twenties this year, and he is handsome and strong.
His family had raised several horses in the past, and their life was pretty good.
Later, his parents fell ill one after another, and he emptied his family's money. However, his parents' illness did not improve, so he sold all the horses and continued to treat their parents' illnesses.
Since there were no horses to pull goods, he came to the Chen family to work as a groom.
At this time, Niu Er came to the outside room and saluted the old lady through the screen.
"The young one has met the old lady."
"Niu Er, where did you take the princess to today?" Wen's mother asked.
Niu Er didn't expect that what Grandma Liu ordered for the front leg would be used by the back leg.
Immediately, she told what Aunt Liu had taught her, "After the princess came out of the palace, she was curious about everything on the street, so she walked and stopped all the way, going to a clothes shop and a jewelry shop..."
"Nonsense, the princess has never seen any rare things in the palace, why would she go shopping in a shop on the street?"
Mother Wen hit the nail on the head, "Are you covering for the princess?"
"this……"
Niu Er was stunned. He said in confusion, "Wherever the princess wants to go, I will drive there. Why would I lie about such a thing?"
"Yes."
The old lady felt that Wen's mother was too worried.
"She came from the barren Mobei and stayed in the palace without seeing the world. Suddenly seeing the prosperity of the capital, it is normal for her to like to wander around. She is only sixteen years old."
"But, madam..."
Wen's mother just had a vague feeling that something was wrong after the princess came back from Lingyun Temple.
"I don't know about her yet. You must be overthinking her."
At this time, the old lady's nose still smelled of the Queen Mother's special facial oil. She was even more satisfied with Su Nianyun than she was in the palace!
The old lady said to Niu Er, "Princess Jinzhiyuye, you have to report her itinerary to Wenma every three days."
"If anything happens to the princess, our Chen family will not be able to explain it to the Queen Mother. Do you understand?"
Niu Er nodded hurriedly, "I understand what the old lady means."
"As long as you understand," the old lady told the little girl, "Take him down. He has worked hard driving the princess's carriage. Give him an additional two cents monthly salary."
"Thank you, old lady!" Niu Er thanked the old lady, and then left with the servants.
"Huh?" After Niu Er left, the old lady suddenly remembered something.
Wen's mother said, "Old madam, do you finally feel that something is wrong with the princess?"
The old lady glanced at her and said, "Why do you only spend so much time on Nian Yun? If you have nothing else to do, pay more attention to that dead girl Biyu."
"Mother Zhao is not clear-headed, she just knows how to spoil her daughter. You have to keep a close eye on her."
"Now the princess is completely devoted to the Chen family. The crisis in the Chen family is not inside, but outside."
"Yes." Wen's mother nodded with a white face.
At this time, the old lady continued what she had just finished, "I actually forgot to ask about the Queen Mother's physical condition!"
"Forget it, it will be the same thing if I ask Nianyun tomorrow morning when he comes to say hello!"
…
Without Bai He and Dan Gui in Tingfeng Yuan, the girls are much more honest and cautious than before.
Su Nianyun knew that there were still two groups among them, those who obeyed the old lady and those who obeyed Zhou Yao.
However, besides Bai He and Dan Gui, she couldn't get rid of anyone else at once.
When she is not strong enough to control the overall situation, she will not make the old lady and Zhou Yao feel wary.
As soon as she entered the room and sat down, Chunhua and Xiayue served her hot tea.
"Princess, please have a cup of hot tea first." Chunhua brought the fragrant tea.
While Su Nianyun was drinking tea to relieve his fatigue, he asked, "Is there any movement between Mother Zhao and Biyu?"
Chunhua said, "Biyu seemed to be quite heavy after being hit. She has been lying on the bed to recover..."
Su Nianyun smiled and deliberately kicked Biyu's ribs.
In fact, if she exerted just a little more force, her ribs could have punctured her lungs.
But this would directly kill Biyu, which would not be fun.
In her previous life, these people carefully crafted a hell around her, not allowing them to enjoy the taste of going to hell one by one. She did not allow anyone to die first.
You have to leave the dog to bite the dog, so that the show will be good.
After Chunhua finished speaking, Xia Yue continued.
"Princess, after you left the mansion, Mother Zhao went to Ping'an Lane..."
One of her and Chunhua monitored Zhao Ma, and the other monitored Biyu.
"...I listened outside the house. Mother Zhao and Mrs. Zhou were having a very loud quarrel. When she came out, she still looked angry."
"It seems that the old lady must have warned them mother and daughter!" Su Nianyun guessed.
Zhao's mother is not very courageous. After warning Zhou Yao not to act recklessly, she will definitely try her best to stop her daughter's thoughts.
But, how could she easily let Biyu lose her thoughts?
Su Nianyun got up and went to the study, followed by Nanny Liu.
"Princess, who is this Lady Zhou, and why do you pay so much attention to her?"
At this time, Grandma Liu still didn’t understand.
Su Nianyun took down a small box from the bookshelf. Inside was her collection of affectionate letters written by Chen Shaoan to herself.
Now when she read these disgusting letters, she could tell at a glance that this person was frivolous, scheming, and capable of acting.
There are some things that you can see more clearly as you get older.
"Princess... do you want your consort?" Grandma Liu asked, seeing Su Nianyun staring intently at Chen Shaoan's letter.
"Miss him?" Su Nianyun smiled coldly.
If he hadn't been needed to push these people into the trap, she would have even wanted to send someone to kill him directly.
Finding one of the most affectionate letters, she imitated it with her pen.
She made up a few more sentences in it, and after finally signing it and letting it dry, she handed the letter to Aunt Liu to read.
"Princess, this is..."
After reading the content of the letter, Grandma Liu was extremely shocked, "Did you make this up, or is it true?"
This is a deeply affectionate love letter, written to Biyu in the tone of a consort.
It wrote about how I missed Biyu, how I married the princess for the old lady and the Chen family, how I was manipulated by Zhou Yao with the child, etc...
In short, I finally came up with one sentence, that is, I am just playing along with other women, and I am only sincere towards Biyu.
When Aunt Liu saw Su Nianyun's red eyes and sneer on her face, she knew that she no longer needed to hear confirmation from the princess!
"Princess!" Nanny Liu was sad and distressed, "Let's go find the Queen Mother and let the Queen Mother make the decision for you!"
"No need, Nanny Liu, don't be sad either. As the saying goes, one learns from every experience. If I hadn't married into the Chen family, I would never be able to see how stupid I was!"
"It is better to see your own stupidity now than to be fooled when you are old."
"But princess, the Chen family is so selfish for doing this. They are destroying you!" Aunt Liu shed tears.
Su Nianyun wiped away her tears and said, "Mother Liu, don't cry. It's not certain who will ruin whom!"
