Chapter 89 Tonight, Master Fu went to the Prince Consort's room
Shang Xi suppressed his rising anger and said, "How is the old marquis these days? Since I'm here, I should go and pay my respects."
Speaking of the old marquis, Xiao Ning felt a little heavier in mood and was no longer angry with Shang Xi.
She sighed softly and shook her head, "Not very good. Now that you're here, go and meet him."
Xiao Ning brought Shang Xi to the old marquis's yard again.
A maid had just helped the old marquis finish his toilet, and there was still a smell in the room. Another maid asked the two to wait in the yard for a while.
I lit some incense in the room and opened the windows, and soon the smell disappeared.
The maid invited the two into the house.
The old marquis was awake at the moment, but his eyes were staring blankly into space, as if he was in a daze.
Xiao Ning gently called out "Grandfather" and sat down beside the bed, "The princess is here to see you..."
The old marquis didn't respond for a long time.
Xiao Ning moved closer to him and called out softly again, and he slowly turned his head.
“Who is it…?”
"It's Princess Duanhui, your granddaughter-in-law."
Shang Xi squatted down beside the bed and smiled at the old marquis. "Old marquis, I'm Duan Hui. I came to see you today..."
"Duan Hui..."
Because his eyes couldn't focus, the old marquis raised his hand and groped in the air but couldn't find anyone.
Shang Xi quickly reached out and held his old, dry hand.
The old marquis laughed, "Good boy, don't, don't mind... those bad things Aning did in the past... He is a good boy..."
"From now on, you should support each other... and live a good life... That's better than anything else..."
Shang Xi smiled in agreement, shaking the old marquis's hand and confirming Xiao Ning, "He's fine. You don't know how brave he was in this time of danger. If it weren't for him, Duan Hui would have never returned to Shengjing City alive."
The old marquis grinned, "This child takes after his father..."
As for the General Zhenbei, I never had the honor of meeting him, but I had heard some stories about him and knew how brave and extraordinary he was.
After witnessing Xiao Ning's heroic demeanor, he thought that General Zhenbei was probably no more than that back then.
After talking for a while, they saw that the old marquis looked tired, so they stood up and took their leave.
I have to say that the princess is very good at coaxing people.
The old marquis was so comforted that he still had a smile on his face when he fell asleep.
Back at Zhengde Residence, Shen had already had all the account books, the housekeeper's cards and other items moved here.
Furong winked at Cuiyun, who bowed to Shang Xi and went to sort out the account books with Yuzhu.
When they returned home in the afternoon, the two of them rode together.
Inside the car, Shang Xi looked at Xiao Ning leaning against the wall and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, it was wrong of me to tease you. Don't be angry."
Xiao Ning, who was distracted, looked at him with a surprised expression when he heard this.
She never expected that the proud princess would apologize to her for such a thing.
I thought that actively seeking peace was his bottom line.
Unexpectedly...
Xiao Ning said: "It's my fault. I wanted to pry into your secrets, so I got teased."
Shang Xi's mouth curled up, "Then we're even?"
Xiao Ning nodded and smiled: "Of course!"
After returning home, the two separated and returned to their respective courtyards.
As soon as Yuzhu left, the yard became a little quiet. Xiao Ning sat at the stone table in the yard, thinking about something.
There were footsteps approaching.
Xiao Ning turned around and saw Yu Qing.
He smiled and called out "Prince Consort", then at Xiao Ning's gesture, sat down opposite him.
"Is your Majesty worried?"
Xiao Ning smiled and said, "Why, can you help me solve this problem?"
Yu Qing said: "Although I cannot help the Prince Consort solve his problems, I can be a listening ear and let him talk freely."
Xiao Ning shook his head and smiled, "It's boring to talk about things that can't be solved."
Yu Qing smiled and shrugged, "Well, it's me who can't share your worries."
At night, Fu Xian knocked on Xiao Ning's door.
He walked into the room skillfully and came to the bedside.
"I saw Miss Yuzhu in your room last night, so I didn't come over. I came specially to serve you in bed tonight."
Xiao Ning: “…”
No, this little idiot.
Her injuries haven't fully healed yet...
If this gets out, others won't know how hungry she is, and she will go into battle even with injuries.
Never mind, the fool also means well.
Anyway, his reputation as a playboy has already spread, so why bother about whether it's a little more or a little less?
Xiao Ning didn't say anything, so Fu Xian opened his seductive eyes and looked at Xiao Ning straight.
Xiao Ning: “…”
This guy is seducing people without knowing it.
If it were someone else, their innocence would have been ruined long ago.
Xiao Ning raised his hand and said, "Alright, you can sleep on the small bed over there tonight. It's late autumn now, and it's getting a bit cold at night. Be careful not to catch a cold."
Fu Xian glanced at Xiaota and nodded obediently, "Okay..."
After agreeing, he squatted at the end of the bed.
He looks like he's ready to get started.
Xiao Ning: “…”
She turned off the lights, went to bed, covered herself with the quilt, listened to the creaking sound, and quickly fell asleep on the shaking bed.
…
On the other side, Furong heard the report from the people who were staring at Fuqiu Garden, and subconsciously looked towards Shang Xi.
Originally, there was no need to report such matters to His Highness.
But times are different now.
The master's heart is tied to that person...
Furong hesitated, came to Shang Xi, and whispered, "Your Highness, Master Fu went to the Prince Consort's room tonight..."
As for the commotion that lasted for a long time, Furong didn't dare tell Shang Xi.
Shang Xi paused after hearing this, then slowly raised his eyes: "What did you just say?"
Furong: "...I heard that Master Fu went to the Prince Consort's room tonight."
The document in his hand was wrinkled and Shang Xi's knuckles turned white.
There is an inexplicable anger in my heart.
I don’t know where to send it.
Finally, he slammed the document in his hand on the table and frowned, "He's still injured, doesn't he know it?"
And advise others to be moderate!
How could he be so dissolute himself!
Furong: “…”
Alas, if I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?
At first, I picked out the best-looking ones to give to my husband...
The previous three were looked down upon by the Prince Consort, so he asked her to choose Fu Xian and Yu Qing as gifts for him...
Wait, she was the one who chose the person, so the master wouldn't be angry with her...
Furong brainstormed, thinking of a remedy: "Your Highness, how about tomorrow... I return the indentures to these people and send them out of the Princess's Mansion?"
Shang Xi looked at Furong, his brows still furrowed: "Why did you send them away?"
Furong: “…”
Aren’t you concerned about their relationship with the Prince Consort?
If you send him away, there will be no more such problems...
But Furong didn't dare to say this.
"Because... because they seduced the Prince Consort into doing something inappropriate. After all, the Prince Consort's injuries haven't healed yet..."
Shang Xi sneered: "If he doesn't want to, can they still force him? What do you mean by them seducing him? It's obvious that he wants it himself!"
Furong: “…”
How could she not know this?
But that's the prince consort, the master's sweetheart...
How dare she slander the prince consort?
Shang Xi crossed his arms irritably and leaned back in his chair.
I still feel anxious and upset.
What does it have to do with him if that bastard doesn't take care of his body?
Why should he bother with this!
