Chapter 73: Cool

The most embarrassing thing is Mrs. Sheng. She originally thought that Zhu Xiaoyan was scheme. Since she had the intention to anger herself, she would not come with anything good. Besides, she doesn't have much money around her, and she hasn't seen anything decent when she was with herself before. Because of this, she has always disagreed with her son's marriage to Song Zilan, not to mention the dowry. After the bride passes through the door, if she only relies on the monthly case in her own house, I'm afraid that even the expenses are very limited, not to mention filial piety to herself as a mother-in-law.

But she didn't expect that this time Zhu Xiaoyan was a bird gun for a cannon. Not only was she bold and generous, but even her routine was a little unpredictable.

Looking at these gifts, the grand man's face looked gloomy and clear. He is a man, and naturally he is not as narrow-minded as his wife. If Song Shi'an instructed his wife to send these things, then his wife has offended Zhu Xiaoyan like this today, and this time she has to go to Song Mansion to apologize in person.

Seeing that her husband and son looked at themselves gloomily, Mrs. Sheng quickly opened her mouth and explained, "Listen to me, I really went too much because of her Zhu Xiaoyan. You don't know how rude she was to me before..."

" shut up! There is nothing for you to talk about here!"

After Shanren spoke, he threw off his sleeves impatiently and walked out. Sheng Chonghua also looked at his mother with a disappointed face, and finally left a sentence, which made Mrs. Sheng suddenly feel cold.

"Mother, I know you don't like Lan'er, but I don't think she can afford Song Zichu's rich dowry. But you have seen today that Mrs. Song came to talk to you about this marriage with so many things, and you still offended people like this. Are you willing to watch Lan'er die in front of you?

"Rev! You heard from your mother that things are really not what you think..."

Mrs Sheng chased to the door and saw her son's back disappear from her sight. She couldn't help gritting her teeth with hatred.

"Zhu Xiaoyan, Song Zilan, you mother and daughter treat me like this, I won't give up! Humph, let's wait and see!"

After Zhu Xiaoyan returned to Songfu, Song Zilan naturally came to hear the news. Seeing her mother's depression, Song Zilan also guessed that things were not going well, so she asked tentatively, "Mother, what did Mrs. Sheng say?"

Zhu Xiaoyan took her daughter to cry and described her experience in Shengfu. Hearing that Mrs. Sheng didn't give face to her mother so much, Song Zilan was really anxious. After Zhu Xiaoyan finished speaking, she said hatefully, "This Mrs. Sheng is really hateful, but mother, why did she do this? Isn't she going to make it clear that she fell out with us?"

"Didn't you say so? My son, you have seen it with your own eyes now. Your future mother-in-law is not easy to mess with. Mother's grievances are nothing. Mother is just worried about you. How do you think you will live this life after you get married in the future?

Song Zilan only felt a heavy heart, and the more she thought about it, the colder she felt. By now, she really regretted her Meng Lang and frivolity at the beginning. If she could have been more steady and reserved at the beginning, how could she get this step?

But now it's too late to say this. The most important thing is that if Mrs. Sheng has such an attitude and Sheng Chonghua does not have a man's work, what should he and the children in his womb do?

In the Zichen Hall, Zichu dressed up as a purple cuckoo and came to see the emperor with soup. In the past few days, because Queen Nalan fell ill, Prince Junyu has also restrained a lot. Therefore, it is much easier to take her in and out of the Zichen Hall than before.

This time, after checking the makeup of the fake emperor, she was sure that there was no flaw. Then she put down the soup in her hand and was about to walk out of the gate of the hall and bump into Prince Junyu, who came to visit the emperor.

Jun Yu saw that it was her and was stunned at first. Instinctively, he hid aside, looking away from ghosts and gods.

Seeing him like this, Zi secretly felt funny in his original intention and wanted to tease him, so he came up with a smile on his face and a little charming, made a charming gift to Jun Yu, and said in a hoarse voice, "I have seen the prince, Your Highness, Your Highness is auspicious."

"Well, I want to go in to see my father. You can retreat."

Zichu didn't want to pester him, so he immediately retreated. Who knew that after Junyusultin passed her, she smelled the familiar fragrance again. He moved and turned around suspiciously.

"Who the hell are you? No, you are not a purple cuckoo. The purple cuckoo doesn't smell like you.

He was grasped by Prince Junyu, raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "Your Highness, what does this mean? The maidservant had mistakenly thought that His Highness was interested in the maidservant, so she did such a funny thing. Later, the Empress wanted to give the maidservant to Her Royal Highness, but Her Royal Highness refused in front of everyone. Now, Your Highness said that the maidservant is not a purple cuckoo. He dares to ask Your Highness if you are too busy and a little confused. Although the maidservant comes from a humble background, she is also a close maid beside the queen. Your Highness plays tricks on slaves like this, aren't you afraid of being misunderstood as disrespectful to your mother?

"You--!" Being taken down by her big hat, Jun Yusultan was also a little embarrassed and angry. He stared at Zichu fiercely for a long time before he put down her wrist helplessly.

He rubbed his painful wrist, and Zichu spit out his tongue at Jun Yu's back. Thinking of the scenes of herself playing tricks on him, she couldn't help laughing.

"What? You bastards actually told me that they didn't stop Jun Yuchen? How is this possible?"

In the partial hall of Zichen Hall, Prince Junyu asked his subordinates who came back and forth angrily. Seeing that the prince was angry, the person who replied was very careful and said bravely, "Your Highness, my subordinates are indeed laying a trap on the only way to enter Beijing. But in the end, only some relatives around King Ding were intercepted, and he knew nothing about the whereabouts of His Royal Highness himself.

"Waste! They are all rubbish! Get out, go down, I don't want to see you!"

Prince Junyu sat down with hatred after saying that. After stroking his eyebrows and meditating for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up and said to himself, "The only people around Jun Yuchen are intercepted, but he is not there. So, has he already entered Beijing?

After thinking about it, I couldn't help shaking my head and saying, "No, it's impossible, impossible. If Jun Yuchen had gone to Beijing long ago, there would have been no trace at all.

Although he said so, his doubts did not diminish at all. After thinking for a long time, he finally ordered, "Come on, arrange it for me and strictly inspect the inns and restaurants in various places in the capital. If there is a suspicious person, immediately be taken back for interrogation!"

In the back garden of Shangguan Mansion, Shangguan Wanyin is sitting under the shade of trees and holding a fan to watch the koi in the pool. She held a delicate jade bowl in her hand and threw the fish food in her hand casually, with a boring expression on her face.

"Miss! Miss! When the maidservant heard that the Empress had fallen ill, the Empress Dowager had issued an order to summon Her Royal Highness to return to Beijing!"

Shangguan Wanyin immediately got up when he heard the words, and the fish food in his hand had already been thrown aside.

"What are you talking about? Is this true? Brother Chen is going to Beijing. Is he really coming back? I'm looking for my father!"

After saying that, Shangguan Wanyin ran away. She went straight to the upper house of her father's residence. After opening the door, she said, "Father, Brother Chen is going back to the palace. Why didn't you tell me about this?"

General Shangguan, who is over 50 years old, looked at his only daughter and couldn't help frowning and shaking his head and said, "Wan'er, how can you always be so reckless? Didn't you see your mother here and talking to your father?

Shangguan Wanyin took a look at her stepmother standing beside her father, her aunt, Luo.

Early after the death of Shangguan Wanyin's mother, this little Mrs. Luo, who is also her mother's sister, was not born to a mother, but a concubine.

Shangguan Wanyin has never looked at her stepmother very much. First, because of her identity as the direct daughter, and secondly, it is also because General Shangguan's favorite of the only daughter left by the original wife. That degree can really be said to be windy and rainy.

And Xiao Luo's stepmother has never been able to raise her head to speak in front of Shangguan Wanyin. At this time, when she saw her eyes staring at herself coldly, she said knowingly, "General, my concubine will go down to make tea for you first. You can sit and talk to the young lady slowly."

After Xiao Luo retreated, General Shangguan stroked his white beard and said to his daughter, "Who told you that Ding Wang was going back to Beijing? This news is not accurate. Don't shout everywhere.

Shangguan Wanyin hugged her father's neck waywardly and said coquettishly, "Dad! Please tell me, is the news that Brother Chen's return to Beijing is true? Please tell me!"

To this only precious daughter, General Shangguan also sighed helplessly and nodded, "Yes, there are indeed such rumors in the palace, and the Empress Dowager did make such a decree. But my father wants to warn you that even if the king returns to the capital this time, you can't go to see him without permission!"

"Why? Dad, you know that I like Brother Chen. Why did you stop us from meeting? Besides, didn't you like Brother Chen very much before? You often praised him for being smart and knowledgeable, and he is still very noble?

General Shangguan replied, "At this time, the prince's wings are getting richer, and his power is no longer allowed to provoke anyone. However, the queen was ambitious and refused to give up the conspiracy to seize the throne. Ding Wangjun Yuchen is outstanding and talented, and is also the favorite prince of the emperor and the empress dowager. You said that under such circumstances, if the king returns to the capital, if you are openly dealing with him, isn't it obvious that you want to be the enemy of the prince?
