Chapter 356 Pick Me Up



No one knows whether Qin can understand Shen Feng’s approach in the future.

But now, it is definitely incomprehensible.

Qin, who had just woken up, heard from Nanny Jiang that Chen Feng would bring the person back tomorrow. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted again.

The Marquis of Jinyang's mansion was in chaos again.

The person who created this chaos had already left the mansion before night fell.

"My Lord, the people living in Yuhua Lane are all..."

The carriage headed straight for the palace gate, where there was a low-key alley between several wide avenues. Chen Feng's personal servant turned pale with fear after hearing the destination. He didn't care about following the rules of a servant and broke the rules to persuade him: "Those eunuchs are not easy to deal with. Please think twice, my lord!"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Shen Feng lifted the curtain and looked outside.

In front of him was Yuhua Lane, where he was going. Compared with places like Zhuque Street and Xuanwu Street, Yuhua Lane was just an inconspicuous alley. There were only a few households living in the alley, and all of them had small populations and behaved in a very low-key manner.

But no one dares to underestimate this alley.

The families in this alley all have more or less relationships with the most powerful eunuchs in the palace.

For example, the Liu family in the alley is inhabited by Liu Gonggong, the personal eunuch of Emperor Xiaoming, who was adopted as his son outside the palace many years ago.

Another family in the alley is the Peng family. The head of the family is the brother of Eunuch Peng of the Cining Palace, and now works in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

There are several other families, all of which are related to the eunuchs who are in power in the palace. Although they may not hold official positions or hold low positions, no one will easily offend them.

After all, as the saying goes, it is easy to see the King of Hell, but it is difficult to deal with little devils. Although these people do not hold prominent official positions, the people behind them are able to report directly to the emperor.

Few of the nobles in Beijing had any contact with Yuhua Lane.

Now, Chen Feng is coming here...

It's not that he has no concerns at all. At least the carriage he is riding now does not have the seal of the Marquis of Jinyang Mansion.

Bathed in the night, the car stopped at the side door of Peng's house.

When the servant saw the young master getting off the carriage and knocking on the door, his heart almost jumped into his throat.

Peng family!

That is the family of the brother of eunuch Peng who is close to the Empress Dowager.

Although Lord Peng only holds a minor position of sixth rank in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he is deeply trusted by the Queen Mother... I'm afraid the name of the Marquis of Jinyang's Mansion will not work well in the Peng family!

The servant thought that the prince would probably meet with a setback in the Peng family.

But on second thought, if the Peng family really didn't give face to the Jinyang Marquis' Mansion, it might not be a bad thing if Lord Peng didn't want to meet the Crown Prince.

Otherwise, considering the way their prince has been causing trouble in the past two years, who knows what will happen!

Just as the servant was thinking about how to comfort his own prince after he was stopped by the Peng family's doorman, he saw the prince take out a somewhat worn purse from his arms and handed it to the doorman. Not long after, a man who looked like a butler came out in person and welcomed the prince in...

"What?"

In the Qionghua Palace, Concubine Ling's voice suddenly became louder.

He had been yawning from sleepiness due to waiting on Emperor Xiaoming in the early morning court, but his sleepiness was swept away by his anger.

"Is it really Nanny Lian, who is beside the Queen Mother, who came here personally to give instructions?

"It's absolutely true." The maid in Qionghua Palace lowered her head, fearing that she would offend her master again at this time.

Concubine Ling's pair of drooping eyebrows, which matched her fox eyes perfectly, were raised at the ends and her brows were tightly furrowed.

After a while, he finally spoke.

"Forget it, I will give the Queen Mother a favor."

"After all, Yao'er still needs her help now."

"Go, tell Mrs. Xue to pack her bags. Send her out of the palace in person. Remember, don't let her take anything out of the palace that she shouldn't take."

"Yes, my lady. I know."

After sending away the senior palace maid beside her, Concubine Ling knocked the long armor on her hands on the table again and again, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.

"I have underestimated the Xue family. Even though they have fallen to this point, they are still remembered by people."

"I don't know whether I should praise this Xue's extraordinary charm or the infatuation of the Marquis of Jinyang."

Ever since she ensured that the handkerchief was delivered to Chen Feng, Xue Linglong had been eagerly waiting.

I thought I would have to wait another three to five days.

I didn’t expect that just one day had passed and I’d already received the news!

Even though she was ordered by the maids of Qionghua Palace to pack her bag within a moment, and was searched twice from head to toe in an almost undignified manner, Xue Linglong still couldn't help but feel a little secretly delighted in her heart.

First, he was happy that he could finally escape from Concubine Ling, this sinister and vicious woman.

The second reason was that she was happy that after such a long time and after experiencing so many ups and downs, Chen Feng still missed her and responded to her requests.

If Chen Feng could really be employed by the royal family as in the dream and give her enough respect, she might not be unable to continue to live a good life with him...

After all, the two of them had a pretty sweet time together.

There is also a child.

"Miss Xue. No, I should call you the Madam of the Crown Prince now."

The maidservant of Qionghua Palace personally escorted Xue Linglong to the palace gate and warned her in a threatening tone: "The Queen has told me to remind you that when you go back, you must remember what you can and cannot say, what you can and cannot do."

Xue Linglong bit her lip and nodded.

She understood that this was to make her promise not to give away the money-making ideas that had been handed over to Concubine Ling.

In addition, he could not tell anyone what he knew in Qionghua Palace. For example, on the day when the battle report from Beiguan arrived, Concubine Ling wore the intimate garments she designed, and Emperor Xiaoming, who was serving her, almost missed the court session...

"Please tell Her Majesty not to worry, Linglong has always been tight-lipped and would never go out and say anything nonsense." Concubine Ling's methods are not limited to being used within the palace. The power of the Ling family outside the palace should not be underestimated. Xue Linglong hastily expressed her loyalty to the palace maid of Qionghua Palace.

"Just remember it, Madam."

The maid took a half step back and made a gesture of invitation to Xue Linglong towards the palace gate, "Madam of the Marquis of Jinyang, please come in. Please don't keep the prince waiting outside for too long."

When she came, Xue Linglong only brought Cui Tao and carried a small bag that could only hold a set of clothes.

The same is true when leaving.

Outside the palace gate, a small carriage without any decoration was parked a little away from the palace gate.

The coachman and the servant both looked very familiar.

It was the man Shen Feng usually used in the Marquis of Jinyang’s mansion.

It's this carriage that looks a bit small and shabby.

But now is not the time to be particular about these things.

Xue Linglong turned around and took one last look inside the palace gate, a hint of regret in her eyes. Then she turned around and strode towards the carriage.

She lacked the dignity and reserve that an ancient woman should have, and her excitement seemed to show up uncontrollably.

She ran closer and said affectionately, "Chen Lang, you finally came to pick me up!"
