Chapter 112: The Meaning of the Prince
The expression on Princess Gongding's always calm face was also a little cracked, and she couldn't understand what Chu Junlan was here for.
I heard that she and Chu Mengying are concubines and concubines, does she want to take this opportunity to get rid of concubines? Princess Gongding was puzzled, and she was a little undecided for a while, and looked at Xiao Yunpeng inquiringly.
Xiao Yunpeng had already sat up, looking Chu Junlan up and down with confused and curious eyes, as if he had reacquainted with her.
"Good. Very good. Xiao Yunpeng's voice was full of interest, "If you don't want Chu Mengying's life, I can help you get rid of her, and you can help me heal, this is also a deal, how about it?" ”
Chu Junlan's smile was impeccable: "The second son said that she was laughing, she is my sister, how could I want to get rid of her?" "It's too cheap for her to die in one fell swoop.
But in this way, Xiao Yunpeng and Princess Gongding both understood what Chu Junlan meant.
She didn't want Chu Mengying to die, but she didn't want her to have a better time.
Princess Gongding's smile returned to her face: "Then I said that, as long as you are willing to treat Peng'er, I will spare her life when Chu Mengying is there." ”
Chu Junlan was noncommittal, and the princess Gongding gave a few words to the grandmother who served closely, and the grandmother should go out.
At this moment, a servant girl outside replied: "Princess, the chief steward is here." ”
Princess Gongding's face changed.
The chief steward in the mouth of the servant girl is Li Yuan, the chief attendant of King Gongding.
"Please come in." Princess Gongding frowned suspiciously.
Not long after, a middle-aged man hurriedly walked in, and after a few thorough salutes, he walked up to Princess Gongding, whispered a few words, and then bowed and retreated.
Princess Gongding's teeth were clenched, and the flesh on her cheeks tightened.
She smiled, looked at Chu Junlan, and her eyes changed: "Very good." This can be regarded as Miss Chu San's ability. Come on, let Chu Mengying go. ”
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yunpeng and the rest of the servants and maids were shocked.
Chu Junlan was also a little surprised, but the princess was willing to let go, which was not a bad thing.
It's still that principle, who she wants to dispose of, she doesn't need to borrow the hands of others at all, Chu Mengying is no longer a thing, in the eyes of outsiders, she is also her sister, she can let Chu Mengying die, but she can't let Chu Mengying's death tarnish her reputation.
Not long after, Chu Mengying, who was soaking wet, came in trembling with her arms in her arms, knelt on the ground softly and bonelessly, and cried aggrievedly: "Princess, the little girl didn't mean to, she really slipped her feet for a while, and collided with the second son, and asked the princess and the second son to forgive her sins." ”
When she was locked up in the firewood room, she was really scared. She originally thought that she would take this opportunity to ascend to the sky in one step, and she would be able to come to live in this mansion in the future, so as to live up to her talent and appearance. Who would have thought that things would go in a direction that they could not have predicted.
Princess Gongding said with a smile: "That's it, the third lady of your family has already interceded for you, and now Brother Peng is fine, this matter is fine, you can pay attention to walking in the future, don't hit everyone." ”
Chu Mengying's face was already red and about to drip blood, although her mind was not very upright, but she was pierced in front of her, and she was still embarrassed.
Especially, this kind of reprimand is still in front of Chu Junlan! It was still because of Chu Junlan's intercession that the other party was willing to let him go!
This kind of humiliation is like making her strip naked and let people watch on the street!
Chu Mengying wanted to cry, but she didn't dare to distinguish it from Princess Gongding, so she immediately saluted.
Chu Junlan didn't stay any longer, and left with Chu Mengying and Zi Yan.
Looking at her back, Xiao Yunpeng frowned and said, "Mother, did you order it from your father?" ”
"Hmm." Princess Gongding sat beside Xiao Yunpeng, "I didn't expect your father to be so careful with her." I don't know what to think! Could it be that he is sick again? ”
King Gongding is so beautiful that everyone knows it.
Xiao Yunpeng's face was also a little strange: "Could it be that I am fighting with a fool, and I have to fight with my father?" ”
Princess Gongding said in a deep voice: "What a fox! The root of the mess! I don't believe that she will enter the door and pass me! ”
Chu Cailiang and the others' hair was almost white, and they were really relieved to see Chu Junlan come back with Chu Mengying, who was like a chicken in soup.
I want to scold people, but it's not good to get angry on other people's borders, but seeing Chu Mengying's dejected and soaked appearance, I can't get angry.
"You, you wicked obstacle, how can you get out of the door of the palace?"
Chu Junlan glanced at Chu Mengying's personal maid Su Lan, "It's also simple, just let the second sister change into Su Lan's clothes, anyway, no one paid attention to the fact that we brought a few maidservants, as for Su Lan, isn't there still a armor cover, and a few girls can handle it if they change their clothes." ”
"Yes, this method is good, you can change it quickly!" Chu Cailiang ordered.
Chu Mengying bit her lip in disbelief, but just made a mistake, she didn't dare to be coquettish with Chu Cailiang at all, so she could only put on the clothes of the servant girl aggrievedly, and several handmaidens also changed it, except for Chu Mengying's hair was wet, she finally couldn't see the flaw.
The group left gifts and left in a hurry.
However, before he went out, Chu Cailiang's original colleagues in the Ministry of Industry and Shangfeng greeted him.
"Brother Chu, it's only been a few days since you left the Ministry of Works, and my little brother misses you very much."
"Yes, in the future, you must be diligent in doing things in the ministry."
……
The people who disdained him when they came, but at this time they were so enthusiastic, not only praised Chu Cailiang's character and talent, but also praised his ability to the sky, and he really couldn't find a word of praise, and he also praised the maids of the Chu family.
"Brother Chu is worthy of being Brother Chu, the future of the family is not to mention the princess of the princess, even the maidservants are all smart."
Chu Mengying lowered her head, and her nails cut out four miserable white crescents in her palms.
Chu Cailiang was proud, the depression just now was gone, and he said goodbye after greeting his colleagues and others.
got on the mule cart, and didn't forget to tell Chu Junlan: "Sister Lan is a smart person, you must serve the prince well in the future, our Chu family can count on you." ”
Chu Junlan smiled but did not speak. Chu Mengying hated to tear off a piece of Chu Junlan's meat.
However, what made Chu Mengying angry was still to come.
As soon as she returned to the mansion, she wanted to change her clothes when she returned to Yanlou, and her appearance in the palace was publicized by Chu Yunjiao.
Chu Cailiang even told Aunt Wang directly: "Look at what kind of good daughter you managed, you will know that you will be embarrassed when you go out, and when Sister Lan becomes the princess of Gongding Wang, I will take advantage of the high status of the family at that time, and quickly tell Chu Mengying a family affair to marry her quickly, so as not to be embarrassed in the future!" ”
Aunt Wang was immediately struck by lightning, and went back to carefully interrogate Chu Mengying about what she had done.
Chu Junlan didn't care about these people's affairs.
But in the evening, the servants came to the guest house to invite her.
"Third Miss, someone from the Pingkang County Mansion has come to deliver a post, and the lord asks you to go to the front yard immediately."
