Chapter 648: I can't ask for this
The two arrived at the gate of Qingran Pavilion, and had just opened the two black lacquered wooden doors that were hidden and went out, but they saw Tao Xue, the maid beside Ye Xiyan, coming from the winding path surrounded by flowers and trees on the opposite side.
Jiang Shu's eyes couldn't help flashing a hint of surprise, and his footsteps paused slightly, pulling Ye Chiwan to stop.
Tao Xue quickly walked closer, bowed to the two of them and said, "Fourth Miss, Sixth Miss, my young lady suddenly felt unwell today, and I can't go to Zhangjiawan with you to pick up Miss Watch. β
"Got it, go ahead." Ye Chiwan originally disliked Ye Xiyan as an eyesore, so he couldn't ask for it, so he waved his hand very happily.
When Tao Xue walked away, she turned her head to look at Jiang Shu beside her, pouted and said, "What kind of sudden discomfort, I think it's obvious that it's too hot outside, and I don't want to go this way, so I deliberately find an excuse." β
"Since she didn't want to go, why did she propose to her grandmother yesterday to pick up people in Zhangjiawan?" Jiang Shu asked with some puzzlement.
"Who knows, Xu wants to show how sensible he is in front of his grandmother," Ye Chi raised the corners of his lips, "Anyway, it's just right that she doesn't go, and the two of us are more comfortable, and we don't have to face a nasty face anymore." β
"That's right," Jiang Shu nodded with a faint smile, raised his hand and pointed forward, "Then let's go." β
The two of them walked out of the gate of Yefu, got into the carriage parked at the gate, and went straight to Zhengyang Gate, one of the three major gates of the inner city.
Although it was the height of summer, the hot weather did not seem to stop people's enthusiasm for wandering, and the streets were still full of pedestrians and cars.
When I arrived at Zhengyangmen, it was almost noon.
Jiang Shu and Ye Chiwan got down from the carriage one after another, did not stop outside, and directly entered the Hunan restaurant located on Zhengyangmen Street, and chose a window seat in the private room on the second floor to sit down.
Since Ye Chiwan often comes to this restaurant, he has already become familiar with the chef inside, and after ordering the spicy pot and side dishes, he went to the back kitchen with the little second brother who was in charge of entertaining.
Jiang Shu sat alone at the table, bored, turned his head to look at the half-open window beside him, and thought about taking a look at the bustling street outside the window first.
But when I looked at it, I couldn't help but be surprised.
I saw that on Zhengyangmen Street, where people and cars were coming and going, a luxurious and gorgeous carriage was moving from north to south at a very fast speed, and it was about to crash into a carriage coming from south to north on the opposite side.
At this moment, a dark red figure suddenly flew out of the crowd, and one of them landed on the gorgeous carriage that was moving rapidly, kicked the coachman who was driving outside, raised his hand to pick up the reins of the horse, and tightened it hard.
Hearing the neighing of the black horse driving, ignoring the carriage behind him, his front hooves stood up off the ground, and then quickly fell, causing the carriage behind him to shake violently a few times.
On the other side, a young man in a snow-white shirt stepped forward to stop the carriage on the opposite side to ensure that it would not be hit.
"Who stopped Princess Ben's carriageββ!" The two carriages had just stopped, and the curtain of the ornate carriage was suddenly lifted from the inside, revealing the gloomy face of the woman in the red shirt, who was graceful and luxurious, but also a little angry.
The man in dark red clothes who stopped the car was Li Mubai, the son of Li Hualong, the secretary of the current Ministry of War, who took a few steps back, respectfully bowed to the woman in the car and said, "Go back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, I am below." β
"Li Mubai, you are so bold, you dare to stop Princess Ben's carriage!" Seeing the appearance of the person in front of him, Princess Rongchang Zhu Xuanyuan's face in the car was even more ugly.
She came out after a quarrel with Yang Chunyuan, a concubine who did not have her in her heart but was forcibly left by her side, and her mood was extremely bad, and she wanted to vent by galloping in the car, but she was stopped by someone without knowing her eyes......
