After Chapter 213, a power grab is likely to take place
Inside the pavilion in the princess's garden.
After Sheng Yunshao put down the black chess piece in his hand, he pretended to be calm and said, "Ruoruo and the others came back last night."
At this moment, Sheng Yunshao was very afraid that Princess Anran would mind that he was not "Imperial Doctor Sheng".
Seeing that Princess Anran was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ruoruo and Jin'er are not..." Princess Anran said, and her hand holding the chess piece paused.
Are you back so soon?
Could it be that... they didn’t return to Jizhou?
"It's good that you're back. Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and it's a good time for us to enjoy the moon together." Princess Anran said, putting down the white chess piece in her hand.
"Brother Sheng, I win this round!"
Haha, she is such a bad chess player, yet she managed to win a game.
Sheng Yunshao looked at the smug Princess An Ran and praised her generously, "Princess, your chess skills have improved even more."
"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Sheng." Princess An Ran said, looking up at Nanny Cen who had a gossipy look on her face.
Nanny Cen came and stood outside the pavilion, quickly restraining her expression.
She bowed and said, "This old servant greets Her Royal Highness the Princess and Imperial Physician Sheng."
"Madam Cen, no need to be so polite!" Princess Anran said, winking at her.
Nanny Cen took two steps forward and said seriously, "Your Highness, when I passed by the Jiang residence, I saw Pei sitting there crying miserably."
"I heard that her family kicked her and her son out in the middle of the night last night."
"Her son has already been taken back home by that Meng Hongcai, but she refused to go back with him and started causing a scene at the Jiang residence."
Princess Anran smiled and covered her lips when she heard this. "Tsk tsk, this is getting more and more interesting."
I caught a glimpse of Jiang Ruo and the other person slowly approaching from a distance.
She waved her hand, and said with a smile: "Ruoruo, Jin'er, come here quickly."
Madam Cen turned around, bowed, and said, "This old servant greets the two masters."
"No need to be polite, Madam Cen!"
After Xiao Chengjin finished speaking, he scratched Jiang Ruo's palm and said, "Aunt and father-in-law are a good match."
Jiang Ruo raised her eyebrows slightly, and the smile on her lips deepened, "Look at my aunt, her face is as beautiful as a peach!"
As they were talking, the two of them came into the pavilion.
"Jin'er greets my aunt and father-in-law."
"Ruoruo has met Auntie and Father."
Jiang Ruo and Xiao Chengjin looked at the chessboard on the stone table and exchanged glances.
This leisurely little life is enviable.
"Come and sit down!" Sheng Yunshao said with an unnatural expression.
What are these two kids looking at?
That’s too gossipy!
Princess An Ran took Jiang Ruo's hand, sat beside her, and said quietly, "Ruo Ruo, Jiang Qinian came back yesterday. He has been dismissed by his nephew."
"Moreover, after he found out what Pei had done, he kicked Pei and her son out of the house."
"Madame Cen just came back from outside and said that Pei was crying and making a fuss at the gate of the Jiang Mansion!"
When Jiang Ruo heard this, a light flashed in his eyes.
Haha, I almost missed a good show.
"Aunt, let's go out and watch a play later."
Princess Anran nodded and said, "You two haven't eaten yet, have you? Auntie will have someone prepare it right away."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chengjin said at the right moment, "Aunt, I'll take Ruoruo to the restaurant for dinner later."
Let Ruoruo taste the signature dishes of our restaurant.
Jiang Ruo was anxious to watch the show, and said with a smile: "Aunt, you guys play chess first, we'll go out for a walk."
Princess An Ran looked at Jiang Ruo and the other two and warned them, "You two should be careful."
"I understand!" Jiang Ruo said, and nodded to Sheng Yunshao.
"Let's go back to the room and 'dress up'."
"Okay!" Xiao Chengjin said, following Jiang Ruo's pace.
Jiang Ruo returned to her room, changed into men's clothes, and put on the same makeup as last time.
After leaving the princess's mansion from the back door, the two headed straight for the street leading to the Jiang Mansion.
The gate of Jiang Mansion was closed, and people were watching the excitement all around.
Pei has been in a state of emotional breakdown since she was kicked out by her sister-in-law in the middle of the night.
In the past, when she went back to her parents' home, she was treated like a star.
Now that he is in trouble, he is... kicked out of his home.
At this moment, Pei was sitting on the steps of Jiang's house with disheveled hair and a dirty face, gasping for breath.
Thinking of the mocking voices of the servants last night, she felt very angry.
A bunch of ungrateful people who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.
After Jiang Ruo joined the crowd of onlookers, the first thing he saw was Pei on the steps.
Tsk tsk, Pei never thought that she would end up in such a situation!
Just then, Meng Hongcai walked out of the crowd angrily.
He shouted at Pei, "Pei Shulan, hurry back home with me. Han'er is making a fuss and wants to see you."
No matter what, my son is my own son and I can't let him live outside.
Since Jiang Yunyao married into a wealthy family in Jizhou, perhaps she could still be of some use...
Wait until this bitch is no longer useful, then kick her out.
The moment Pei heard Meng Hongcai, she suddenly became furious.
She stood up suddenly, rushed to Meng Hongcai and started fighting, "I'm going to beat you to death, you bastard."
"You're the one who killed me."
"My whole life has been ruined in your hands."
Meng Hongcai already held a grudge against Pei for trying to poison him in the teahouse, and after being beaten by Pei, he immediately became angry and humiliated.
He raised his hand and slapped Pei fiercely, "You crazy woman, do you really think I'm easy to mess with?"
"I'll give you two choices. One, go back home with me. Two, sever your mother-son relationship with Han'er."
"Pick one."
Pei covered her beaten cheek and stared at Meng Hongcai in a daze.
Go back with you?
You still want to snatch my Han'er away...
The moment she lowered her eyes, Pei concealed the hatred in her eyes.
She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go back with you."
Meng Hongcai puffed out his chest proudly and said, "Hmph! You deserve a beating." After saying that, he turned around and left.
So, in full view of everyone, Pei followed Meng Hongcai away like a punching bag.
When the onlookers saw the "protagonist" leave, they also dispersed talking and laughing.
Jiang Ruo's eyes widened in shock at the scene before her.
This guy surnamed Meng is really fierce. He brought Pei home. Isn’t he afraid that she will cause trouble?
Moreover, it is said that Mrs. Meng is a shrew.
Jiang Ruo tugged at Xiao Chengjin's sleeve and said in a low voice, "If nothing unexpected happens, the Meng family will be bustling."
Haha, my life suddenly became a mess.
Xiao Chengjin looked up at the plaque with the words "Jiang Mansion" written on it, "That Madam Meng is not an easy person to deal with either."
"Okay, let's go to the restaurant for dinner!"
The entrance to the Jiang residence suddenly became deserted.
Passersby looked at the closed gate of the Jiang Mansion and were filled with emotion.
The Prime Minister's Mansion, which was once bustling with people, is now deserted.
On the street.
Jiang Ruo turned his head to look at Xiao Chengjin and asked secretly, "Who do you think might be the next Prime Minister?"
Xiao Chengjin raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "It should be the prince's father-in-law, Tang Zhongxu."
Thinking of the intelligence reported by the secret guard this morning, Xiao Chengjin lowered his voice, "Xiao Mocheng and Tang Zhongxu have been in close contact recently. In the future, there is a high possibility that a power struggle will unfold."
Jiang Ruo covered her lips and chuckled, "Really?"
"I like to watch it."
Haha, Xiao Mocheng is becoming more and more daring.
