Chapter 163: Beiyuan is locked
When Mr. Meng left, he left with some regrets.
His daughter did not forgive him, and his grandson refused to acknowledge him.
But all of this was caused by him, so if he were to correct it, that would be what he should do.
Mr. Meng sighed and glanced out of the carriage window. He just happened to see a carriage passing by. Judging from its direction, it should be entering the city.
The decoration on the outer wall of the carriage revealed a kind of low-key gorgeousness. The pattern on the outer wall was a kind of flower that Mr. Meng did not recognize, and the carvings were lifelike.
Mr. Meng stared at the pattern and felt as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Before he could think about it, the carriage went further and further away and could no longer be seen...
On this side, Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing saw off Mr. Meng and went to Baili Mansion.
The entrance to Baili Mansion was deserted and even the main door was tightly closed.
Su Chenyu frowned. She rushed all the way from Yunwu Mountain to the capital. She did not go to the mansion first, but took Meng Lao directly to the Dali Temple. She did not know the situation in Baili Mansion yet.
Zhu Yi and Aunt Xu went forward and knocked on the door. The doorman heard the noise, opened the door, and found that it was Aunt Xu and Zhu Yi, and was about to close the door immediately.
Zhu Yi got angry and kicked the door open: "What do you mean? The princess and her husband are here, and you dare not open the door?"
The doorman also felt wronged: "This is all because of the old lady's order. She said that the prince consort had an accident this time and cannot enter through the front door. He must enter through the back door."
Madam Xu opened the door directly and said to the gatekeeper, "This Baili Mansion is still the Zhenguo Mansion after all. You should think carefully about who your master is."
The doorman was intimidated by Madam Xu's words and dared not to stop them. He watched Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing enter.
When the two men walked to Beiyuan, they found that the gate of Beiyuan was also closed. There were several guards standing outside guarding it with wooden sticks in their hands.
"What are you doing?" Nanny Xu recognized these guards.
The leader of the guards was a man called Hu Dafa, who was a big and burly man. He often acted arrogantly, relying on his martial arts skills.
But in the entire Baili Mansion, only Beiyuan never let him get close, which made him very dissatisfied for a long time.
This time, the old lady asked him to watch over Beiyuan, and he showed off his power at the gate of Beiyuan again.
"The old lady said that if something happened to the prince consort, the North Garden would naturally be sealed off." Hu Da did not take Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing seriously at all. The bet between Emperor Wei Jing and Su Chenyu was well known to everyone.
No one thought that the emperor would lose. Even if Baili Yanqing came now, it must be because the emperor was kind and did not embarrass him. But Su Chenyu's identity as a princess might not be preserved, and with Baili Yanqing's reputation, he might not be able to gain a foothold in the capital in the future.
