Chapter 76: Princess Zhaohua
"That's the second room! Isn't it divided? Shen Dada's leadership of this branch is good, and Shen Dagongzi is also brilliant, young and promising......"
"Oh! It turns out that you secretly targeted Shen Dagongzi! No wonder they would say good things for her......"
"Not really! You misunderstood me! ”
The women giggled and laughed, and they all left Su Muwan's previous explanation behind.
Shen Nianzhen also smiled slightly.
The eldest brother is young and promising, and he is also known as the commander of Shen Xiaoda, and it is normal for him to be secretly liked by the young lady.
The banquet was about to end, and the Su family suddenly had a distinguished guest visit.
The queen's own daughter, Princess Zhaohua suddenly came, the Su family did not dare to slack off, and entertained them hobly, but Princess Zhaohua looked left and right, looking for something everywhere: "I heard that the only daughter of Shen Da is also here today, where is she?" ”
"Back to the princess, Miss Shen is in the banquet hall." Su Muwan replied with a smile.
Princess Zhaohua immediately led people to the banquet hall.
Shen Nian really casually listened to the laughter of the women opposite, slowly drinking tea, and suddenly a peach-pink delicate figure fell in front of him.
She looked up in surprise and saw a young girl with a goose egg face, snowy skin, bright eyes and bright teeth, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a pendant of fairy temples, wearing a pink cloud brocade gold thread embroidered peony flower placket, with a moon white pleated skirt underneath, and a pair of big watery eyes, full of swagger.
"You are Shen Nianzhen?"
Princess Zhaohua glanced at Shen Nianzhen with a critical gaze.
Shen Nianzhen didn't know who she was, but when she saw that all the female guests around her stood up, she also stood up and replied respectfully, "Yes." ”
"Miss Shen, this one is Princess Zhaohua."
Su Muwan walked in from outside with a smile, grabbed the princess's arm affectionately, and introduced Shen Nianzhen with a smile.
It turns out that this is Princess Zhaohua!
Which one has an affair with his own brother!
Shen Nianzhen raised her eyes in surprise and looked at Princess Zhaohua, and when she saw the hidden anger in her eyes, her heart suddenly cooled.
The eldest brother won't like this princess, what he likes is a graceful and gentle woman, and the sister-in-law in the previous life is Miss Zhu Er of the Wenchang Bofu family, as for this princess......
Shen Nianzhen thought about it for a long time, and he couldn't remember who Princess Zhaohua married in the end.
"It turns out that this is the sister of the commander of Xiao Shen, but that's it." Princess Zhaohua looked at Shen Nianzhen with a critical gaze, and when she saw that she was not inferior to Su Muwan's beauty, a touch of jealousy suddenly flashed in her eyes.
No wonder she can be looked down on by her unruly second brother, such a beauty, what man doesn't want to embrace him and love wantonly?
What's more, Shen Nianzhen is young now, but she is already so moving at the age of fourteen, when she becomes an adult, what kind of beauty will she be in the country?
Princess Zhaohua snorted coldly in her heart.
Shen Nianzhen's face was full of embarrassment, and he didn't know how to deal with the princess's sudden difficulties.
"This princess hasn't eaten today, I heard that your skills are good, and you make a good meal, why don't you show your hand in front of everyone today?" Princess Zhaohua spoke condescendingly.
"This ......"
Shen Nianzhen looked surprised, and at the same time a little speechless.
Did this princess treat her like a cook? She is also a distinguished guest who came to Su's house to give gifts today!
"Princess, Miss Shen is just here to be a guest today." Su Muwan hurriedly pleaded for Shen Nianzhen empatheticly: "Please princess for Wan'er's sake, forget it, the kitchen lady in the house has already prepared ......"
"Forget it? Why? Princess Zhaohua snorted coldly and squinted at Shen Nianzhen: "Do you think that this princess is not qualified to eat your cooking?" ”
"Absolutely."
Shen Nianzhen immediately responded with a smile: "Another day, the princess will visit the Shen family, Nianzhen will definitely cook and cook a banquet for the princess, how about it?" ”
This is a clever prevarication.
Sure enough, Princess Zhaohua's eyes lit up, go to the Shen family! Wouldn't it be possible to see the commander of Xiao Shen up close......
Noticing the meaning on Shen Nianzhen's face, she suddenly snorted coldly and said, "Who are you to be the princess!" The Shen family can also let the palace set foot in! You have bad intentions! ”
This is really wronged, Shen Nianzhen opened her mouth and was about to explain, when suddenly a hand stretched out from behind her and pulled her back two steps, Shen Nianzhen was still surprised, and heard Rong Chen's impatient tone in her ears: "The food cooked by your second sister-in-law has not been eaten in this palace, what qualifications do you have to eat!" ”
She turned her head sideways, looking at Rong Chen standing in front of her, the slender and tall figure, and the handsome side face, and slightly hooked the corners of her mouth.
At this time, it feels good to have someone to protect you......
"Second brother, why are you here!" When Princess Zhaohua saw Rong Chen, a trace of resentment and annoyance first appeared on her face, and then she quickly returned to normal.
"It was this palace that brought Miss Shen here." Rong Chen looked at her lazily: "As a younger sister, when you meet your future sister-in-law, have you saluted?" ”
Zhaohua was shocked and angry: "She hasn't married you yet!" Why should I salute her? ”
A pair of wonderful eyes shot at Shen Nianzhen like knives.
Shen Nianzhen quietly hid behind Rong Chen, and said with a smile on his face: "Your Highness, forget it, the princess has a noble status, how can she ......?"
"How can you forget it!" Rong Chen snatched her words and looked at Zhaohua seriously: "As a brother, this palace still can't move you, right?" ”
Zhaohua's face suddenly showed a look of humiliation.
She looked at Shen Nianzhen hatefully, gritted her teeth and stepped forward, and bowed to her with her knees in front of everyone's eyes: "I've seen the second sister-in-law." ”
Shen Nianzhen didn't expect her to really do this, she was suddenly startled, waved her hand and said, "No, no, you get up quickly......
A flattered look.
Rong Chen stretched out his hand, grabbed her hand, and forced Shen Nianzhen to accept this salute before he spoke slowly: "Zhaohua, you have a domineering temperament, and this palace doesn't care about you on weekdays, but in the future, if you dare to be disrespectful to your second sister-in-law, this palace will never be able to bypass you!" ”
"Zhaohua remembered."
Princess Zhaohua looked humiliated, if it was in the past, she wouldn't even have to respect Rong Chen, let alone salute Shen Nianzhen! Ever since that happened......
Thinking of this, her face darkened a little.
Rong Chen led Shen Nianzhen, and in the eyes of the women who were either envious or jealous, she gorgeously led Shen Nianzhen to say goodbye and leave, Su Muwan wanted to stop it, but when she saw Rong Chen's cold gaze, she didn't know why, so she stopped.
There was a stuffy, indescribable feeling in my heart.
After leaving the Taishi Mansion and getting into the carriage, Shen Nianzhen let out a long sigh of relief, just now in the Su family, she really almost suffocated her, a group of women who love acting!
"It's been a hard day for you." Rong Chen said slowly on the side: "I didn't tell you in advance, I brought you here, this time the palace owes you, and I can meet one condition for you." ”
"Really?"
Shen Nianzhen's face was immediately full of joy when he heard this: "Your Highness has already written me a letter of resignation in person, why don't you go into the palace to see Your Majesty and ask him to dissolve the marriage contract?" ”
"You want to get out of the marriage?"
Rong Chen's originally smiling face changed suddenly.
Chilly.
Shen Nianzhen suddenly thought of the cold storm and snow in winter......
She shrunk her neck and said with a sneer: "Lord Wang, this is what you said......"
"But Bengong also told you, Bengong regretted it and didn't withdraw from the marriage." Rong Chen sneered, slowly tilted his body, approached Shen Nianzhen little by little, stared into her eyes and said, "You still want to get out of the marriage, do you?" ”
Shen Nianzhen hurriedly hid backwards.
It's a pity that there is a car wall behind him, and there is no way to hide.
"Your Highness, yes, there is something to say." She pushed him helplessly and said, "Two people who don't love, why do you insist on getting together?" ”
"Who said that this palace is not loved!"
Rong Chen suddenly grabbed her hand roughly, took out a small brocade box from the placket of his chest, and threw it to her and said angrily: "See for yourself!" ”
Shen Nianzhen was puzzled and took the smashed brocade box and opened it slowly.
Inside, a pigeon-egg-sized, pink, round pearl lay there quietly, radiating the light of a thief.
The light in the carriage was dim, and the pearls became more and more crystal clear and beautiful.
"What a beautiful ......"
Even a woman like Shen Nianzhen, who doesn't like pearl jewelry very much, couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
"This bead is much better than Su Muwan's, is Your Highness really willing to give it to me?"
Shen Nianzhen held the pearl and raised his eyes to look at Rong Chen.
Rong Chen snorted coldly: "It's not for you, why did this palace stay until now?" ”
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Shen Nianzhen covered the brocade box with great interest, put it in his personal purse, raised his head and looked at Rong Chen with a smile: "I accepted this pearl!" ”
Rong Chen breathed a sigh of relief almost inaudibly.
Immediately, an indescribable taste came to my heart.
He gave Su Muwan a very precious pearl today! If this woman really cares about herself, how can she not be jealous?
But no matter how Rong Chen looked left and right, Shen Nianzhen didn't mean to mention Su Muwan at all.
He coughed lightly and explained uncomfortably: "The reason why I gave that pearl to Cousin Wan'er today is because the palace promised her before, don't be careful." ”
"I don't have much heart, huh?"
Shen Nianzhen smiled when he heard this: "When the pearl was sent, His Royal Highness the Third Prince's face was ugly, did His Royal Highness notice it?" ”
Rong Chen didn't care about Rong Bing, if he really treated him as a brother, Rong Bing, who wouldn't have beaten him at the beginning, couldn't get out of bed.
"Take it out."
"What?" Shen Nianzhen raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"Leave the book!" Rong Chen snorted coldly: "A pearl for a letter of resignation, it's a very cost-effective deal, right?" ”
"Huh? It's been torn. Shen Nianzhen said with an innocent face: "Your Highness won't think I'm still keeping, right?" ”
"If you don't have a divorce, where do you have the confidence to talk to Bengong about divorce?"
Rong Chen was not fooled, a snow-white and slender hand with distinct bones was slowly handed to Shen Nianzhen, and said unceremoniously: "Hurry up and bring it, you don't want this palace to use extraordinary means to ask for it, right?" ”
"It's really torn!"
Shen Nianzhen bit his tongue and didn't let go.
Just kidding, that letter of resignation is the foundation of her future survival, in case one day Rong Chen treats her badly, she can directly leave the Second Prince's Mansion with the letter of resignation, how can she hand it over?
"Huh?"
Rong Chen raised his eyebrows, making it clear that he didn't believe it.
"Your Highness, you can trust me." Shen Nianzhen tried hard to put on a sincere expression, looked at him and said: "I have already received the token of His Royal Highness's relatives, and such a precious pearl, of course I will not think about retiring from the marriage again, in the future, as long as His Royal Highness ...... me well."
"How?"
Rong Chen loved to listen to this, and a smile filled the corner of his mouth when he heard it.
"Vote for me with a peach, and repay it with Qiong Yao." Shen Nianzhen said slowly.
Rong Chen listened, but looked at her faintly: "What, don't you want to suffer?" "Can't you love him first?
"Is Your Highness willing to suffer?"
Shen Nianzhen's smiling eyebrows and eyes were crooked, as cunning as a fox.
When Rong Chen saw it, he couldn't help but itch in his heart, as if he was gently brushed by a feather......
He likes a woman like Shen Nianzhen who doesn't play cards according to common sense, although she looks gentle and harmless, and looks simple, but in fact, she has a hidden edge, and once she makes a move, she will definitely make the opponent collapse.
Don't suffer losses, don't take advantage, calm and sober women, of course he can't let go.
He's lost his beloved, can't he even lose the only woman who can make him happy, right?
"I was so troubled by Zhaohua today, but I want to eat the salt-baked chicken you made."
Rong Chen said lazily, and after speaking, he gave an order.
Nanfeng immediately drove to Doctor Ge's courtyard.
Sitting outside, listening to Shen Nianzhen shouting in the carriage to give silver, she couldn't help blushing, lowering her neck, and secretly praying in her heart, Miss, Miss, in front of Your Highness, can you be serious?
Who's a beautiful lady opens and closes her mouth is silver.
Rong Chen laughed, looked at Shen Nian and said, "This palace gave you such a priceless pearl, can't you make a dish by yourself?" The pearl is back to me. ”
As he spoke, he held out his hand.
Shen Nianzhen hurriedly covered his chest: "Don't give it!" Where is the reason to take back what is sent! ”
"This palace is biased!"
"Don't give it!"
The two of them giggled and made a mess.
"Your Royal Highness, you, stay away from me......" Shen Nian was really tired and panting, pulling the wall of the carriage with both hands, sitting far away from Rong Chen, laughing, and asked, "Has the hat alley arrived?" ”
"Miss Hui, it's early." Pictured replied outside the car.
As soon as the words fell, the carriage stopped.
Shen Nianzhen immediately straightened his clothes, and his slightly scattered sideburns, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, as soon as he landed, his knees suddenly weakened, and the whole person fell to the ground.
"Be careful!"
Rong Chen got out of the car with him, quickly helped her, pursed his lips and smiled, and sneered: "Do you want this palace to hug you earlier?" Why bother. ”
Shen Nianzhen broke free, retreated far away, and glared at him fiercely.
Rong Chen didn't care, and walked towards the alley with his head held high.
Nanfeng had already cleared the scene early, and there was no one in the alley, Shen Nianzhen followed behind Rong Chen, looked at Ruhua, and asked in a low voice, "Did you bring the gift I prepared for the master?" ”
"Miss, can this slave forget?"
Pictured, he took out a basket from behind him, looked at her with a smile and said, "Don't worry, it's all here." ”
Shen Nianzhen took the basket and opened it to take a look, and was relieved to see that the several puff pastry snacks and wine she had prepared for Doctor Ge were all intact.
Ge Shen Doctor Xianyun Wild Crane General Character, gold and silver wealth do not love, life only love one to eat, on this food, it can be said that he is infatuated, hungry and thirsty, if he has any elegant hobbies, then collect the paintings of Master Xianhe Zong, count one.
Since Shen Nianzhen came to see his teacher, he naturally wanted to do what he liked.
When the group arrived at the door, Nanfeng stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After a long while, there was a sound of footsteps and a slightly tired and lazy voice from inside the door: "Who?" ”
"Master! It's me! Shen Nianzhen shouted with a smile.
"Oops! It's the girl who is coming! Doctor Ge's eyes lit up, and the exhaustion and drowsiness all over his body were suddenly swept away, and he immediately stepped forward to open the courtyard door.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, he saw Rong Chen.
The smile on his face was gone.
"Stinky boy, why are you here too!" He snorted.
"Dead old man, why can't this palace come." Rong Chen snorted and said, "This courtyard was bought for you at the expense of the palace." ”
"When Concubine Qi's illness is cured, you don't have to come!"
Doctor Ge took Shen Nianzhen's hand and said with a smile: "Girl, you are finally here!" How did you read the medical scriptures that the old man handed over to you? ”
"I've finished reading a book, and I'm still reading it."
Shen Nianzhen replied as he walked into the courtyard, and at a glance he saw that the courtyard was lush and green, and the medicine fields were in patches. Immediately, he let out an exclamation: "Master, you have transplanted all the herbs from before!" ”
"That is, these things, of course, can only be relieved to look at them under their noses." Doctor Ge stepped forward with a smile, bent down to pick a large handful of herbs from a medicinal field, handed it to Shen Nianzhen, and said, "Girl, do you know this?" ”
Shen Nianzhen stretched out his hand to take it, only glanced at it and smiled: "Master, this is basil, put a few leaves when you roast meat, you can add fragrance." ”
"Really?" Doctor Ge was surprised: "I only knew that this was a medicinal herb, but I didn't expect it to have this effect!" Wait, be sure to give it a try! ”
"Okay." Shen Nianzhen responded, then went to the wing room to change out of a gorgeous dress, put on a narrow-sleeved placket, gathered up her hair, and walked out in good spirits.
As soon as Rong Chen, who was arguing with Doctor Ge under the tree, turned around, he saw her slender waist with a sweet smile on her face that was rarely shown in front of people.
His eyes couldn't help but deepen.
"My apprentice is beautiful and skillful, and few men in the world can be worthy of it."
Doctor Ge Shen let out a long sigh and said coolly: "I just made a marriage with you, it's really a flower stuck in cow dung......"
Rong Chen was not angry.
Shen Nianzhen was praised by others, doesn't it mean that he has a good vision?
"Dead old man, don't say a word, or wait for the food to be ready, but you won't have your share!"
"You dare! If you don't let me eat, I won't enter the palace tomorrow to check Concubine Qi's pulse! Doctor Ge snorted angrily.
made it clear that he didn't take Rong Chen in his eyes.
Rong Chen is angry and funny, I don't understand that I have only seen it a few times, this Doctor Ge is very close to Shen Nianzhen, as if he treats her as a granddaughter, it is really strange.
