Chapter 476 Meeting someone you don’t want to meet again
"Princess!"
Aunt Liu and Chunhua were talking, but they didn't expect the princess to suddenly appear behind them.
Su Nianyun asked, "Is it true that Xiao Changfeng has not gone to court in the past few days?"
"Yes princess." Chunhua nodded.
"And Xiao Han, he seems to have gone out to do some errands and is not with little Xiaohou."
"Princess, has something happened to Xiaohou looking like this? Do you want to go find him?"
Su Nianyun thought for a while, "Don't worry, I will go to Jinming Tower tomorrow to see what Fu Ming means..."
Early the next morning, Su Nianyun got up early and packed up.
After having breakfast with Jing'er and watching him play with Huixin and Ping'an, she went to Jinming Tower.
Unfortunately, before she could ask the oncoming Fu Ming a question, she saw the shadows of Zhao Chengji and Shunyang in the box.
"What's going on? Why are they here together?" Su Nianyun asked Fu Ming in a low voice.
Fu Ming shook his head and said helplessly, "I also want to ask you, you rarely come at this time, okay?"
"Huh?" Su Nianyun was stunned.
It turned out that she didn't accidentally see Zhao Chengji and Shunyang, but she came at the wrong time and bumped into them.
"Then I'll come back after they leave!" Su Nianyun turned around and left.
She was very busy these days and didn't want to confront Shunyang for the time being.
Unexpectedly, Shunyang was sharp-eyed and immediately spotted Su Nianyun standing outside with Fu Ming.
"It turns out that Princess Nianyun is here. I asked Master Fu why he went out to pick up someone in such a hurry!"
Her words sounded like compliments, but they were actually sarcastic.
Of course, only Su Nianyun understands this task of holding a gun and carrying a stick.
After hearing Shunyang's words, Zhao Chengji, who was drinking tea with his head down, also raised his head.
When he saw Su Nianyun, his expression was filled with joy.
"It's rare to meet Princess Nianyun here. Come in and have a cup of tea together."
Su Nianyun looked at Fu Ming.
Fu Ming rolled his eyes back at her, which meant don't look at me. Even if you look at me, I can't help you.
Su Nianyun was helpless and went into the box with a face that was worth mentioning, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Shunyang, why did they come to Jinming Tower for tea so early?"
"Actually, Shunyang insists on coming out, so as the elder brother, I can only accompany him."
"Princess Shunyang, when can you leave the palace at will?" Su Nianyun finally spoke to Shunyang.
Facing Su Nianyun's direct gaze, Shunyang stared back without fear.
"This matter, actually speaking..."
She paused and then said, "Someone's fiancé has been missing for a few days, and the Queen Mother is very worried, so I volunteered to help the Queen Mother search for him, so that the Queen Mother can feel at ease as soon as possible."
"You also said that you are someone's fiancé. Princess Shunyang, you interfere in someone else's fiancé's affairs like this. What do you want that person's fiancé to think?"
Su Nianyun didn't know that Xiao Changfeng could spread the news to the Queen Mother just by avoiding the crowd for a few days.
Shunyang must have put in a lot of effort in this.
"Princess Nianyun, you can't say that. It's true that Xiaohou is your fiancé, but he is also a great hero in the court and the most valued person by the Queen Mother."
"His whereabouts have been unknown for many days. The Queen Mother is very worried about him. It is natural for me to relieve the Queen Mother's worries."
"Really?" Su Nianyun said, "There is no one else around the Queen Mother, so I will use you, an unmarried princess, to find the most powerful minister in the court."
"This..." Shunyang paused, "Princess Nianyun is going to ask the Queen Mother. After all, this is arranged by the Queen Mother."
"Okay," Su Nianyun stood up, "I will go into the palace now to ask the Queen Mother what is going on and why my future consort has to be worried and searched for by other princesses..."
Seeing that Su Nianyun actually followed her words and wanted to find the Queen Mother, Shunyang was stunned.
She was just talking to each other, she just wanted to use the Queen Mother to suppress Su Nianyun, but Su Nianyun didn't want to do this at all.
"Hey, Princess Nianyun, what you said is very good, why do you fall out so quickly?"
At this time, Zhao Chengji finally had the opportunity to intervene.
He hurriedly comforted Su Nianyun, "Don't get excited. Sit down and talk properly."
Seeing Su Nianyun standing there motionless, he hurriedly asked again, "Princess Nianyun, I know you have been busy recently..."
Zhao Chengji was shocked when he thought of the scene when he saw her dissecting a body with blood on her hands that day.
His voice was a few softer than before, "Shunyang also has good intentions. After all, the Queen Mother is always most anxious about Xiao Changfeng, and you know that."
Su Nianyun then got off the donkey along the slope and sat down again.
Of course she would not be like Shunyang, who would not hesitate to sacrifice the Queen Mother's health for her own benefit, but also tell her about Xiao Changfeng, making her worry again.
If she went to the palace to complain to the Queen Mother at this time, she would undoubtedly cause more trouble for the Queen Mother. Of course she would not do that.
But Zhao Chengji and Shunyang were both selfish people, and they thought she would really go into the palace to find the Queen Mother.
Zhao Chengji personally poured tea for Su Nianyun and then brought it to her.
"Princess Nianyun, please calm down first. It's all Shunyang's fault. I'll ask Shunyang to apologize to you."
After saying that, Zhao Chengji looked at Shunyang and threatened her to apologize with his eyes.
Shunyang had no choice but to restrain his arrogance and said in a low voice, "Princess Nianyun, don't be angry. I just spoke out of hand. I was... wrong!"
She admitted her mistake, but she felt increasingly unwilling to do so.
"I was wrong" was said through gritted teeth.
Su Nianyun looked at her deflated expression in a funny way, and thought to herself, Shunyang, I don't have time to deal with you, but you will send it to the door for me to deal with.
This couldn't be better!
"Princess Nianyun, let's not talk too much. Do you know where Xiao Changfeng is?"
Zhao Chengji was also quite anxious as he couldn't find Xiao Changfeng.
When he met Xiao Changfeng that day at Su Zhai, he had already sensed Xiao Changfeng's dissatisfaction.
He knew that Xiao Changfeng had noticed his feelings for Su Nianyun long before his father granted him the marriage.
He had obviously been beaten by his father, warned by Nangong Ren, and even hinted by Xiao Changfeng openly or secretly, but he didn't know why, but he just couldn't stay away from Su Nianyun.
In the dead of night, he also thought about why he could never forget Su Nianyun.
It was obvious from the beginning that he wanted to help Su Nianyun and Xiao Changfeng. He even helped them connect, didn't he?
But why was he so upset after his father granted them a marriage?
Even though he knew that there would be big problems if he got close to Su Nianyun, he still wanted to see Su Nianyun, even to make Su Nianyun angry.
He just wanted to see that beautiful woman who laughed when she wanted to and got angry when she wanted to.
Just now, the way she and Shunyang were quarreling with each other had also exerted a fatal attraction on him.
"I don't know where Xiao Changfeng is." Su Nianyun shook her head bluntly.
Zhao Chengji was startled out of his reverie by her words.
He asked in surprise, "Did Xiao Changfeng really not even tell you his whereabouts?"
