Chapter 242: The Friend Returns
Regardless of whether the princess sincerely regretted apologizing at the moment, or deliberately fawning falsely, for the sake of Chen Jiayu's face, Lin Shuran would not bother with her anymore, so he said with a smile: "Whatever the princess said, the truth has been revealed, and we will not mention the past things anymore, and we will have to communicate often in the future!"
Hearing Lin Shuran say this, Princess Alcohol nodded with satisfaction, and even stepped forward to take her hand affectionately, patted her lightly and said, "You are still a sensible and kind child, as long as you are no longer angry with your aunt, your aunt doesn't know how happy she is in her heart!"
Lin Shuran was not used to Princess Alcohol touching her so familiarly, but she still endured the discomfort and did not withdraw her hand, but Chen Jiayu on the side saw this scene and hurriedly walked over with a smile, she said to Prince Alcohol that the Marquis of Dingyuan's wife Yuan had arrived and was talking to her.
As soon as Princess Alcohol heard this, she quickly let go of Lin Shuran's hand, and then took a few ladies who followed to go to find the Marquis of Dingyuan's wife Yuan's family, and today the Marquis of Dingyuan's wife Yuan is the important person she really wants to win over.
Lin Shuran exhaled secretly, with a relaxed look on her face, Chen Jiayu couldn't help but smile, approached her and whispered, "My mother-in-law's face change kung fu is very powerful, it's unbearable!"
"Got it!" Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu smiled knowingly, but they also felt pity for Chen Jiayu in their hearts, thinking that when they met such a mother-in-law who would "change their face", her life in the palace would not be much better.
"Okay, what are you two whispering behind my back? Are you speaking ill of me?" At this moment, a voice came from behind the two, startling Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu, and they immediately turned around to see Lei Yingying looking at them with a smile on her face.
"Yingying, when did you come back? Why hasn't any news been revealed?" Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu both thought that they were dazzled, and Lei Yingying, who was originally in Yunzhou, suddenly appeared in front of them.
Lei Yingying slowly walked towards the two of them, with a triumphant smile on her face, and said, "I just came back, I surprised you, I heard that there was a banquet here, so I came here!"
"You're still the same as before, you like to be fun!" Chen Jiayu was also very happy to see her friend returning, and took the two of them to the small building in the back garden to sit down, and instructed her subordinates not to disturb the three of them for the time being.
The small building is elegant and quiet, surrounded by green bamboo, the edge of the building is a pond, push open the window and have its own breeze, occasionally hear three or two birdsong, very tactful and crisp, pleasant to the ear.
The three of them sat down at the table casually, but they didn't expect Lei Yingying to open her mouth and ask the two, "I heard that a lot of rare things have happened in the capital in the past few months, tell me quickly, what's there?"
Lin Shuran saw Lei Yingying stretching her neck and gossiping curiously, glanced at Chen Jiayu, looked at her and asked, "What do you want to know?"
"Naturally, it's the freshest thing, I heard that the regent of the Xia Kingdom and Princess Qingyang were seriously injured by someone who spent the night together, and I can't see anyone yet!" Lei Yingying stared at Lin Shuran with sparkling eyes and said.
Who said that everyone in ancient times was more shy and introverted and didn't say right and wrong, and those romantic things were even more insulting to her ears and personality, and then look at Lei Yingying in front of her, at this time, there is no bit of the rules and manners of the princess and the wife of the official, she is a little woman who loves to listen to gossip and scandals. qs
"Sister of the Lei family, aren't you accompanying your husband in Yunzhou for disaster relief? Why are you still so concerned about what happened in the capital? That's fast enough to know the news!" Chen Jiayu only knew that Lei Yingying was so greedy and lively before, but she didn't expect that her curiosity was not ordinary.
The affair about Duan Ji, the regent of the Xia Kingdom, and Princess Qingyang of the Jin Dynasty, seems to be very secretive, but in fact, many people know about it, and it has also spread secretly among the mansions in the capital, but no one dares to discuss it in the open.
"The disaster relief has ended, and now Yunzhou is very good, and there is nothing to do, so I will come back, and on the way back, I heard people talk about this new thing that happened in the capital, and I naturally want to ask when I see you! Is this true?" Lei Yingying asked with an eager smile.
"I don't know!" Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu shook their heads very tacitly and said in unison.
"Ahh One of you is the princess of the palace, and the other is the wife of the general, and you don't even know whether the news is true or not? Why have all the ordinary people outside heard about it?"
"Heard of everything? What does this mean?" Lin Shuran looked at Lei Yingying with some puzzlement and asked, and Chen Jiayu also looked at her with the same confusion.
Lei Yingying told the two that on the way back from Yunzhou, she heard those people secretly talking about the new things that happened in the capital, saying that the prince of the Xia Kingdom and the princess Qingyang of our dynasty had an affair more than 20 years ago.
"Those people have noses and eyes, I thought the capital had already spread, but you didn't know it. But I've never seen that tall colt in all these years!" In addition to Lei Yingying's own interest in these gossip gossip, the second is that she also feels strange, in the past, if there was any news in the capital, as long as it was deliberately concealed by the imperial court, it would not be spread so quickly, but this time it seemed that someone was deliberately spreading it outside.
Lin Shuran and Chen Jiayu have not heard about Gao Juma, they only know that he is the husband of Princess Qingyang who worked hard to get it, and he is the father of Gao Zhan, a gentleman, and even if this person is dead or alive now, it is estimated that not many people know.
"Sister Zhu'er, the princess is talking to others, and no one else is allowed to disturb her!" At this moment, the sound of the maid beside Chen Jiayu sounded outside Xiaozhu.
"Smack!" Suddenly, a slap sounded, and another arrogant female voice sounded, "***, you dare to stop me at will, it was the princess who asked me to come to the princess, and if you miss the princess's big event, you can't afford to pay for your life!"
The three people in Xiaozhu heard the voice outside clearly, Chen Jiayu changed her face even more, and she was displeased, this voice was very familiar to her, one was her maid Qiu'er, the other was the first-class maid Zhu'er next to the princess, and it was also the maid who had just climbed into her husband's bed and thought that she was going to turn a sparrow into a phoenix.
"You maids in Prince Alcohol's Mansion are really amazing!" Lei Yingying stood up and deliberately shouted at the outside.
