Chapter 311: Victory
Everyone loves to hear good words, especially an arrogant person like Uncle Yuan Guo, who is greedy for power, and he has an inexplicable sense of accomplishment when he hears that someone is dead set on him.
"Tomorrow, the Queen Mother will summon you into the palace to take King Yuan out, and the old man will send someone to escort you at that time. After bringing King Yuan back to the palace, you can't let anyone near King Yuan except for the people I sent before. Uncle Yuan Guo instructed.
"What about the princess and the side concubine? They also often look forward to the return of the prince. Steward Jiao asked.
Hearing Steward Jiao's words, Uncle Yuan Guo didn't know why his eyes suddenly became fierce, Steward Jiao couldn't help but shrink his body, Uncle Yuan felt a little happy when he saw Steward Jiao's hair, his eyes flashed, and suddenly said, "Let them see." โ
"Oh." Steward Jiao was stunned and didn't react.
"King Yuan must be old, and he should have a child." Uncle Yuan Guo woke up on the side.
Steward Jiao's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood: "The slave knows how to do it." โ
"Well, step aside." Uncle Yuan said indifferently.
"Yes."
When the people in Chen Guogong's Mansion heard that the porter had come to report that Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi had visited, they all felt very strange.
As soon as Chen Si heard that Xu Shizi had brought Shen Yafei to the mansion, he was even more dumbfounded: "He will come when he comes, and what is he doing with a woman?" The first reaction, Chen Si thought that Xu Shizi was looking for him. Because he knew very well that Shen Yafei didn't have any friendship with them, and she didn't like to communicate with others. Therefore, Chen Si felt that it should be Xu Shizi who brought Shen Yafei here.
"Smack!" Listening to his son's bastard words, Lord Chen slapped Chen Si on the head and scolded: "What nonsense? โ
"Father!" Chen Si covered his head and looked at Master Chen aggrievedly.
Master Chen also knew that he had hit hard when he heard the voice just now, so he withdrew his hand in a daze, not daring to look directly at Chen Si.
"What do you two think? Why don't you sit down and want others to see the joke? Chen Guogong scolded harshly.
Master Chen and Sima Chen sat upright, obediently waiting for the arrival of the guests.
"The prince has arrived, the princess has arrived." The subordinate took Xu Shizi and Shen Yafei to appear outside the hall door of Chen Guogong's mansion.
Mrs. Chen immediately came out to greet her: "It's really rare to see you here." Quick, come in. Mrs. Chen went over and took Shen Yafei's hand and approached the hall.
Shen Yafei didn't expect Mrs. Chen to be so enthusiastic, so she followed Mrs. Chen in a daze.
"Shizi, Shizi, please take a seat." As soon as Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi entered, Chen Guogong beckoned the two to sit down.
Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi sat down, and a maid put warm and cold tea in front of the two.
"Shizi, Shizifei, please." Chen Guogong held the teacup in the direction of Xu Shizi and Shen Yafei, and motioned for Xu Shizi and Shen Yafei to drink tea.
Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi gently picked up the lid of the cup, and lowered her head meaningfully and took a small sip.
"I wonder what happened to the prince and the princess visiting today?" Chen Guogong asked.
"Oh, yes. The princess heard that King Ning had returned to the Guogong Mansion and was not in good health, so she wanted to come over to visit. Xu Shizi said.
"The princess really has a heart. The old man first thanked the princess for Xiaoxi here. Mrs. Chen was very moved when she heard this.
"After all, Princess Ning is also my patient, and caring for her patient's body is what I should do." Shen Yafei still used the same set as Fu Xu Shizi said to the Chen family.
โยทยทยทยทยทยทโ Shen Yafei's words made Old Madam Chen not know how to answer, and her face was a little embarrassed, "Ah, I didn't expect the princess to come over in person, I have a heart." โ
After listening to Old Madam Chen's words, Shen Yafei smiled and did not answer.
Looking at Shen Yafei's appearance, it didn't seem like she was willing to chat with them, and Xu Shizi also watched Shen Yafei's behavior and do things, Shen Yafei didn't want to speak, and Xu Shizi didn't talk, and the hall was a little quiet for a while. Chen Guogong and Chen Si called out to each other, and Chen Si twisted his head to the side and ignored it. Chen Guogong glared at the back of his head fiercely, and when he saw that Xu Shizi's gaze was just over, Chen Guogong immediately changed his smile again.
"Well, the old man will take you over to find Princess Ning first." Old Madam Chen didn't know what to do in the face of these uncooperative guests, so she had to take them directly to Chen Xi.
"Okay, there's Mrs. Lao." Shen Yafei got up from the chair.
Seeing Shen Yafei's behavior, Old Madam Chen just smiled, immediately stood up, and led the way in front with Madam Chen. And, Xu Shizi also followed, Chen Guogong saw Xu Shizi following, and immediately slapped Chen Si, and Chen Sima caught up.
When Shen Yafei and the others arrived in Chen Xi's courtyard, Old Madam Chen ordered someone to entertain Hao Xu's son, and she went into Chen Xi's house with Mrs. Chen and Shen Yafei. At this time, Chen Xi was showing off his handkerchief.
Shen Yafei saluted Chen Xi: "Princess Ning." โ
"Princess, please take a seat." Chen Xi was a little surprised at first when he saw that it was Shen Yafei, but he was immediately surprised, and hurriedly beckoned Shen Yafei to sit down, and at the same time asked Old Madam Chen and Mrs. Chen to sit down, "Grandma, mother, you can also sit." โ
"Why did the princess come to visit the palace? Is there something going on? After Shen Yafei sat down, Chen Xi asked.
"Actually, it's not very important. It's just that I heard that the prince said that you have returned to the Guogong Mansion, and I have nothing to do recently, thinking that the Liwang Mansion is not far from the Guogong Mansion, so I want to come over to visit. I'm sorry, but this decision was rushed, and I didn't send the post in advance. Shen Yafei also had a good way of saying kind words.
After hearing this, Old Madam Chen and Mrs. Chen's eyes widened, they seemed to understand why Shen Yafei talked so little when she was in the hall, she should not be willing to socialize with them. They feel sweat on their foreheads, and they're not that annoying, are they? Old Madam Chen and Mrs. Chen secretly decided in their hearts that they would still find a better way to get along with Shen Yafei in the future, and not let themselves be such boring people in the eyes of others.
"Actually, it's nothing? I've been back for a while now. Chen Xi showed a bitter expression, and when he thought of his own affairs, his mood inevitably became low.
Old Madam Chen and Mrs. Chen didn't feel good when they saw Chen Xi's appearance, could it be that someone Chen Xi trusted came to visit her. They felt that Chen Xi should also talk to his friends in order to release the discomfort in his heart, so they decided to leave the two of them to talk by themselves: "You talk slowly, we still have things to deal with." โ
After saying that, the two went out.
"I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing." Shen Yafei saw that Chen Xi's eyes were filled with tears under her words, and she knew that her words touched Chen Xi's sadness, and she immediately apologized.
"No, it's none of your business. Alas," Chen Xi sighed, put on a reluctant smile, and directly changed the topic, "By the way, I heard my mother say that many people in the capital now say that you are a great divine doctor, a life-saving benefactor, and a living bodhisattva who saves the world." โ
Shen Yafei didn't react much to this, but said: "These are just their jokes." โ
Seeing Shen Yafei so indifferent, Chen Xi suddenly felt a little envious, envious that Shen Yafei could be so calm and frank about so much praise, as if Shen Yafei did everything as she wanted and was unrestrained. And his own life has to be tied to others, Chen Xi smiled sadly and bitterly.
"Princess Ning doesn't have to be like this." Seeing that Chen Xi was about to cry again, Shen Yafei frowned and comforted.
Chen Xi shook his head bitterly, forcing his emotions back.
"By the way, in addition to visiting you today, I have another important matter." Shen Yafei used the method of shifting the topic to divert Chen Xi's attention.
"What's the matter?" Chen Xi was upset, she also knew that Shen Yafei would not come to visit her for no reason, after all, her friendship with Shen Yafei was not very deep, and Shen Yafei could be said to be an important matter, so this matter must be very serious. Chen Xi even forgot about his sadness at this time, and looked at Shen Yafei curiously.
"Actually, you don't have to be nervous. That's right, during this time, my maid and I have been busy with other things, and we don't have time to come over to check your health. Therefore, I want to come and diagnose a pulse of peace for you. Shen Yafei saw that Chen Xi's expression was tense, as if she was facing a great enemy, and said with a chuckle.
"Oh," Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully, "You have a heart." โ
"It should." Shen Yafei nodded and smiled at Chen Xi.
"I'll have someone bring him over right away." Chen Xi called the maid and asked her to bring Cheng Wei over.
After Shen Yafei diagnosed Cheng Xi's pulse, she showed Chen Xi again, she gave Chen Xi two injections after reading it, and then left some medicine for both of them, let them take it as instructed, and then left. Before leaving, she also deliberately comforted: "Princess Ning doesn't have to think too much, everything in this world is destined in the dark." If the mind is too heavy, it will affect the body. โ
Shen Yafei and Xu Shizi politely refused Chen Guogong's stay, and the two came out of Chen Guogong's mansion and walked all the way to East Street. Seeing this, Xu Shizi asked, "Xiaoya, where are we going next?" โ
"You'll know when you get there." Shen Yafei didn't want to say more. Seeing that Shen Yafei's face was a little tired, Xu Shizi stopped asking, but observed the surroundings vigilantly.
Shen Yafei squinted for a while, and saw that Xu Shizi's expression was still so nervous, so he said, "You are so nervous, don't worry, it will be fine." โ
The carriage stopped outside a very remote hut, and Xu Shizi followed Shen Yafei out of the car, looking around curiously: "Where is this?" โ
"A great place to hide in the gold house." Shen Yafei joked with a smile.
After hearing this, Xu Shizi straightened up, his eyes widened, and he defended again and again: "I haven't done it, you must not listen to those people's nonsense." Seeing Shen Yafei looking at herself with a smile and not speaking, Xu Shizi couldn't help but become more nervous, and swore, "I swear, I really don't have a golden house to hide Jiao." Besides, I've been doing things for the prince all this time, how can I have time to do such boring things. Moreover, the women in the world are not as good-looking as you, and the women outside are so ugly, I don't have that kind of thought. โ
