The General's Honored Lady

Chen Siyuan was the legitimate daughter of a merchant family. After marrying a household slave, she poured all her efforts into helping him become a minister. In return, her husband and her paterna...

Chapter 403 At worst, we can just part ways.

Chen Siyuan looked at the flowers in the water, "Can you even make tea from this?"

"You're in a bad mood, you should drink some herbal tea to relieve stress."

Chen Siyuan held the teacup to her lips and took a sip.

The taste was different from the tea she had drunk before. She didn't know if it was because she was looking at the flowers or because she was attracted by the words, but she gradually relaxed.

“I’ve heard about what’s been happening to you lately, and it’s certainly quite strange!” the Fifth Princess said, taking a sip of her flower tea.

Chen Siyuan paused in her tea-drinking motion. "You knew everything?"

"Yes, the commotion was quite loud; it's hard not to know about it."

Chen Siyuan smiled, but it was a cold laugh.

"I came here because I heard you were here, otherwise I would be taking my beauty sleep right now."

"Thanks."

"No need for thanks, I was just worried about you." The Fifth Princess said, pinching Chen Siyuan's little cheek. "It's only been a few days, and your eyes look sallow."

Chen Siyuan drank her tea again without saying anything.

The Fifth Princess Consort was fond of physical contact, but her face showed sincerity; she did not appear to be resistant.

"You'd better be careful lately. I feel like something's not right in the capital."

What did you discover?

"Last night, the Third Prince went to see the Fifth Prince."

Chen Siyuan's eyes widened instantly. "Is this real?"

"I don't know what they said, but it took a long time, and I discovered that the Fifth Prince's attendants were missing this morning."

Chen Siyuan's heart skipped a beat.

Is someone about to make a move?

Was it because I insisted on taking Qiao Zhen's purse yesterday?
