Chapter 513 Peach Forest
It was a fine day with a cloudless blue sky.
In the season when peach blossoms bloom, it is not hot even if there is not a cloud in the sky.
There is a gentle breeze and it is a rare and pleasant day.
After breakfast, Xie Jingyu accompanied Shen Wan to the Princess Shunyang's residence for the Peach Blossom Banquet.
They went there at the right time. When they arrived, Princess Qi Yang and Lady Yao Guang were also there.
When they met head-on, fire crackled in the eyes of the Yaoguang County Lord.
The only daughter of Princess Qiyang, the empress dowager's granddaughter, and the center of attention, was threatened by Chen Wan, and her marriage was threatened. Even after several days, the anger of Princess Yaoguang had not subsided at all.
After entering Princess Shunyang's residence, Princess Qiyang instructed Lady Yaoguang, "You've reached the age of marriage and are now ready to be engaged. Many young masters from aristocratic families are attending the banquet today. See if there's anyone you like."
Yaoguang County Lady pouted and said, "Mother, are you afraid that Princess Qingning will actually instigate the Emperor to marry his daughter far away?"
Princess Qiyang said, "Princess Qingning was just trying to scare you. The Emperor would never do such a thing."
The Empress Dowager is in poor health to begin with. If she gets sick from anger, the Emperor will have a headache.
Although Princess Qi Yang said so, County Master Yao Guang didn't believe it. Her mother hadn't been in a hurry to arrange a marriage for her before, but after Shen Wan threatened her, she was in a hurry to marry her off. Could there be no connection at all?
Chen Wan and Xie Jingyu entered Princess Shunyang's mansion together. Xie Jingyu stayed in the outer courtyard, while Chen Wan was led by a maid to the inner courtyard garden.
As soon as I passed through the crescent-shaped archway, a clear, angry voice came from the other side, "You dare to come?!"
It was the Lady of Yaoguang County.
Obviously he was waiting here to block her.
Shen Wan was not angry, "Why don't you dare to come?"
The light tone made Yaoguang County Master crazy.
Yaoguang County Master said, "I don't care what your purpose is. I will send someone to keep an eye on you."
After saying this, Lady Yaoguang turned and left.
The two maids standing behind her did not move.
Did they really send someone to keep an eye on her?
She is so spoiled that she doesn't even use her brain when she goes out. If she wants to investigate Queen Song, does she need to do it herself? Doesn't she have any secret guards to use?
Shen Wan walked forward, and the two maids followed five or six steps behind. Shanhu said, "Who gave you the courage to follow the world... follow my princess?!"
The two maids said, "It is the order of the county lady. Princess Qingning, please do not embarrass us."
Coral even wanted to hit someone.
The Lady of Yaoguang County sent people to follow her Crown Prince's Consort. Her maids also asked the Crown Prince's Consort not to make things difficult for them. She said that she had seen unreasonable people, but she had never seen anyone so unreasonable.
Shanhu looked at Chen Wan, but Chen Wan didn't seem angry at all. "Let them follow me. If I get into danger, they will have to save me."
coral,"……"
The two maids, "..."
The Crown Prince's Consort is too bold.
But when I think about it, it seems to be true. The Crown Prince's wife is open and honest, and there is nothing she cannot let others know. But if there is danger, if these two maids who follow her wherever she goes dare to stand idly by and the emperor finds out, not only will they lose their heads, but the Lady of Yaoguang County and the Princess of Qiyang will also be punished.
But still feeling irritated, Coral huffed, "Follow me if you like!"
The two maids didn't know why their county lady sent them to follow Princess Qingning, and they didn't expect that Princess Qingning would be so easy to talk to and actually let them follow her.
Chen Wan was easy to talk to, and the two maids were tactful and retreated ten steps away. The county lord only asked them to keep an eye on Princess Qingning. As long as she was under their noses, they would know her every move.
Shen Wan walked forward and soon saw two disappointed faces——
Song Nanyan and Du Xiner.
It's like enemies meeting and being extremely jealous of each other.
One of them is the apple of the eye of the Duke of Song, and the other is the daughter of the Left Prime Minister.
Because of her marriage, she became the laughing stock of Kyoto. Not only did Chen Wan secure her position as the Crown Prince of Jingbei, she was also named a princess. It was even rumored that she was actually the biological daughter of the Emperor and Concubine Chen.
Comparing yourself with others will really make you angry.
When enemies meet, they're bound to exchange a few words. Song Nanyan's eyes swept over the faces of the two maids behind her, "Being a princess is different. One maid isn't enough to keep you company when you go out, and you bring so many with you. How pretentious!"
Carrying guns and sticks.
Chen Wan really liked to see them being unable to do anything with her and could only jump around and find fault with her.
The corners of Shen Wan's mouth curled up, and he waved for the two maids to come forward, "Tell them who you belong to."
The two maids twitched their lips and said, "It was Princess Yaoguang who asked us to follow Princess Qingning."
Song Nanyue's face froze.
Chen Wan said, "The Yaoguang County Lady saw that I only brought one maid, and was afraid that I wouldn't be able to handle them, so she sent these two to me. If you think I'm showing off, you can go and tell the Yaoguang County Lady."
There was no dissatisfaction on Chen Wan's face about the maid staring at her, so Song Nanyue cursed Yaoguang County Master in her heart. She suspected that Yaoguang County Master's head was kicked by a donkey. She was afraid that Chen Wan would have no one to order around, so she gave her own maid to her to order around. Did she like to be a fence-sitter so much?
Chen Wan walked towards the peach forest. Princess Shunyang liked to tend to flowers and plants. There were countless exotic flowers and plants in the mansion. However, it was not the time for all the flowers to bloom yet, but the large peach forest was enough to make people dazzled.
The ladies of noble families were chasing and playing in the peach forest, and their silver bell-like laughter could be heard from far away.
“It’s really beautiful.”
Coral exclaimed in surprise.
It is indeed so beautiful that it seems unearthed. Fortunately, many noble ladies in Kyoto have a hobby of growing flowers and plants. Today you hold a banquet at your house, and tomorrow she holds tea at her house. The ladies have somewhere to go and have fun. Otherwise, they would be bored if they were stuck in the house all day.
Wei Mingzhu, Qin Nian'er, Yun Miao and Yun Qing came to look for Chen Wan. With more people around, they became more interested.
While they were playing, a maid came over quickly and said, "The Queen is here."
Shen Wan turned around and saw Queen Song coming over, surrounded by Princess Shunyang and several noble ladies.
She was wearing a phoenix robe, looking elegant and luxurious. Princess Shouzhen also came with her.
Queen Song came over and Shen Wanfu bowed to her. Queen Song had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold.
Queen Song only glanced at Chen Wan and walked forward, "Princess Shunyang has such a comfortable life, I envy her."
Princess Shunyang smiled and said, "The Queen is the mother of the country and in charge of the harem. She must have no more free time than me. The Queen is willing to come to my house to appreciate the peach blossoms. My efforts to see these peach blossoms are not in vain."
Queen Song admired the peach blossoms accompanied by Princess Shunyang.
The peach forest is so big that you can’t touch it if you try to avoid it.
Shen Wan had a lot of fun.
I felt a little tired, so I went to the pavilion to rest. Just as I entered the pavilion and was about to sit down, I heard a commotion over there.
Wei Mingzhu asked curiously, "What happened?"
The maid went to inquire and came back with the following story: "A wild cat appeared from nowhere and pounced on Queen Song, soiling her phoenix robe. Princess Shunyang had the cat caught and thrown out of the palace..."
There were so many people attending the banquet today, but the cat pounced on no one but Queen Song. Queen Song was so unlucky.
This is what Wei Mingzhu, Qin Nian'er and others thought.
But Chen Wan didn't believe that there would be such a coincidence. The wild cat had soiled Queen Song's phoenix robe, so Queen Song would definitely go change her clothes, so it would be easy for her to do anything.
If Queen Song and Prince Qing really had an affair, it would not be easy to have an affair in the palace. Queen Song rarely left the palace, and Prince Qing would definitely not miss the opportunity.
Hopefully they won't let her down.
Shen Wan took a sip of tea.
