Chapter 53 Goodbye



This time, Xu Wanqing did not ride in her own luxurious carriage alone. Instead, Grand Tutor Xu arranged for her to ride in an ordinary carriage with Xu Wanyan.

She was indignant, but she didn't dare to get angry at her grandfather and father. She could only glare at Xu Wanyan angrily all the way.

"Sister, what's wrong with your eyes? Do you need to see a doctor?"

Xu Wanyan looked concerned.

"You...idiot!"

Xu Wanyan smiled and said, "Yes, I am not as smart as my sister. I hope I can marry my ideal husband in the future."

This made Xu Wanqing feel a little proud, and she held her head high. "Unlike some people, who don't know how long they can live in the future?"

"Sister, what do you mean by this?"

Xu Wanyan pretended to be ignorant.

Xu Wanqing glanced at her lightly, eyes full of contempt and complacency, "I won't tell you."

Xu Wanyan sighed and said regretfully, "Sister, you may not know that the last time Mr. Lu saw you was to tell you some good news."

Xu Wanqing looked at her doubtfully and asked anxiously, "What good news?"

Xu Wanyan pretended to be surprised, "Didn't grandpa and father tell you?"

Xu Wanqing shook her head in confusion.

Xu Wanyan sighed and said, “The last time I went to the Shen family, I heard from the Shen family that Master Shen wanted to give Mr. Lu a chance, but unfortunately, Mr. Lu didn’t go.”

"Impossible! Mingxuan cares most about the Shen family's appreciation, there is no way he won't go."

Xu Wanyan nodded and said, "That's what I told the Shen family. Later, I found out that he was beaten by his father and was bedridden, so he missed it."

"Now, the Shen family is very disappointed and feels that Mr. Lu is unreliable."

"This, this... How can you blame Mingxuan? If you want to blame someone, blame it..."

Xu Wanqing suddenly stopped talking, her eyes filled with hatred.

"What a shame, such a shame! For someone like Mr. Lu, the Shen family's promotion is so important. What a pity!"

Xu Wanqing didn't say anything, but looked at her feet with hatred, not knowing what she was thinking.

Xu Wanyan grinned and finally quieted down.

When she arrived at the palace gate, Xu Wanyan was stunned by the vibrant colors.

I'm afraid that the young ladies from each family have taken out the most colorful clothes in their homes to compete with each other for beauty.

Xu Wanyan took a deep breath and followed Xu Maocai.

Although Xu Maocai did not have much ability, many people still respected Grand Tutor Xu.

"Master Xu, I haven't seen you for a few years. You are still as strong as ever."

"You're too kind. I'm an old man, how can I compare with you young people?"

"Hahaha, the old Grand Tutor is still strong and healthy. I didn't expect to see him again."

"It's all thanks to His Majesty that he still cares about me, an old man, and allows me the honor of attending the palace banquet."

"Hahaha......"

“.......”

This kind of flattery made Xu Wanyan feel a little helpless. She looked around and saw that Xu Wanqing had already gone to find her little sisters.

A group of people were chattering and gesticulating from time to time, and it was unclear what they were talking about.

Seeing Li Yun'er and Yang Jiaoxue, Xu Wanyan was a little surprised. She didn't expect that they were here too.

Looking around, I saw quite a few familiar faces, including several female members of the Shen family.

"Mrs. Lin and Prince Lin are here too."

Someone said something, and Xu Wanyan looked over gently.

I saw a white-haired old lady walking towards here with a dragon-headed cane, surrounded by a group of people.

Xu Wanyan lowered her head and stepped aside. She had contributed to the Crown Princess's affairs, but it was better to stay away from families like the Lin family.

"Grandmaster Xu, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"

Grand Tutor Xu and Xu Maocai were flattered and bowed quickly.

Seeing this, Xu Wanyan also saluted. She always felt that there was a sharp gaze on her head.

"Old Princess, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still so energetic. It's really admirable!"

"Haha, I'm old now, not as I used to be. This time, the emperor did a good thing, allowing us old guys to get together."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Grand Tutor Xu could only nod his head.

"I heard that your two granddaughters are here too."

Grand Tutor Xu nodded, quickly called Xu Wanyan, and sent someone to call Xu Wanqing.

"The old princess is well, Prince Lin is well, ......"

Xu Wanyan greeted everyone one by one, and Shen Yujiao smiled gently when she saw her.

Mrs. Lin looked at the graceful girl in front of her, and a hint of surprise flashed through her mind.

She knew that this was the girl who discovered that the Crown Princess was poisoned.

Didn’t the Xu family abandon her in a side courtyard for more than ten years? How could they be so magnanimous?

The suspicion that flashed in Mrs. Lin's eyes did not escape Xu Wanyan's eyes, but she was not surprised, as any normal person would think so.

"Dad, why did you call me over here?"

Because of Lu Mingxuan's matter, Xu Wanqing was furious and got angry when she saw Xu Maocai. Naturally, her tone was not good either.

"You kid, why don't you pay your respects to the old princess!"

Even though Xu Wanqing was not happy about it, she knew the status of the Lin family and could only bow reluctantly.

A trace of disgust flashed across Old Lady Lin's eyes, but she said nothing more.

Grand Tutor Xu glanced at Xu Wanqing with a frosty expression, but the latter did not react at all.

"Prince Qi, Prince Yun, Prince Chen, Prince Rui, and Prince Run are here."

Xu Wanyan's heart skipped a beat. Xiao Jingming returned to Beijing?

The originally quiet crowd suddenly became noisy, and families with girls waiting to get married couldn't help but look around secretly.

Many of the young ladies also had blushes on their faces, as if they were wearing peach blossoms.
