Chapter 489: Another Dispute in the Prince's Mansion
Prince's Mansion.
It was already dark by this time.
Because the news that the prince had contracted an internal illness had spread throughout the city, it was not difficult to find out how the rumor spread, and Xing'er soon found out.
At this time, he was reporting to the Crown Princess.
"Princess, I've checked it out."
Qianyan glanced at Xing'er.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Xing Er pursed her lips and spoke.
"I first learned that Chu Liangyuan was unwell and went to Jishidi Hall for treatment. She was diagnosed with an internal organ disease. There were countless patients at Jishidi Hall at the time. Chu Liangyuan repeatedly said that there was only one man like the Crown Prince. She even swore to heaven that she had never done anything to let the Crown Prince down.
Later, rumors spread that the Crown Prince had contracted an internal disease and infected Chu Liangyuan. To verify this, I went to Jishitang and consulted the two doctors who treated Chu Liangyuan. Now it has been confirmed that Chu Liangyuan did have an internal disease.
Qian Yan murmured in confusion when he heard this.
"Chu Liangyuan? Isn't she at the Bai residence? If she really wasn't feeling well, there wouldn't be no doctor at the Bai residence. Why would she go to Jishidiang for treatment?"
Xing'er shook her head when she heard that.
"Crown Princess, I've also heard that Chu Liangyuan was spotted by the Lord of Baise City, his master, and the King of Yan from Dayan while they were out shopping. I'm afraid this incident has had a significant impact on the Crown Prince's Mansion."
Qian Yan was surprised when he heard this.
"What? We were caught by a few of them."
Then he spoke thoughtfully.
"How could such a coincidence happen in this world? Could it be that Baise City did this on purpose?"
The master and servant were talking.
Jun Moxu came over angrily.
The first words he opened were reproaches.
"Qian Yan, how do you manage the harem? Why did Chu Liangyuan go outside to see a doctor and cause such trouble to the Prince's Mansion?"
Qianyan frowned, stood up, and spoke in a dignified and polite manner.
"I greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is so angry, I think he has heard the rumors outside."
Jun Moxu spoke with a gloomy face after hearing this.
"It's more than just a rumor. This morning, I was severely criticized by the Prime Minister during the morning court session. Immediately afterwards, the entire court was talking about the rumors outside. As the Crown Princess, why did Chu Liangyuan go outside to seek medical treatment? If you can't even manage the inner chambers properly, what use do I have for you?"
It turned out that this matter was known to the entire court. Upon hearing this, Qian Yan lowered her head with a cold look in her eyes, pursed her lips and opened her mouth to refute.
"Your Highness, I, your Crown Princess, should indeed be managing this inner house for you, so that you don't have to worry about anything. However, City Lord Su took Chu Liangyuan away right in front of you, Your Highness. Your Highness, you casually gave your concubine away just to please her. Now that she's caused trouble, you're blaming me. Isn't this a bit unreasonable?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Moxu raised his hand and slapped Qian Yan in the face.
"How dare you contradict me, Qianyan? You really have been treating me less and less recently."
"Didn't Chu Liangyuan tell you to bring her back after a few days when she went to the Bai residence? Why haven't you brought her back yet? If you had brought her back two days earlier, there wouldn't be this incident today."
Qian Yan raised her hand to support her beaten face, staring at Jun Moxu with wide eyes, full of disappointment.
Seeing this, Xing'er hurried forward to support Qianyan and spoke worriedly.
"Princess..."
I can't help but feel sorry for Qian Yan.
"Your Highness, how could you possibly fight the Crown Princess?"
"As soon as our queen heard the rumor, she immediately sent this servant to investigate. This matter developed too quickly, and it really caught us off guard. This is not the Crown Princess's fault. You can't treat the Crown Princess like this..."
Qian Yan raised her hand slightly to signal Xing Er to stop talking.
"It's alright. I did have some shortcomings in my abilities and failed to manage the Crown Prince's Mansion well. It's only natural that His Royal Highness is venting his anger on me now."
Then he looked at Jun Moxu, and the friendship of the past was gone in his eyes.
"I think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely dissatisfied with me now. If that's the case, after my father's birthday tomorrow, I will stay in seclusion to reflect on my mistakes."
As he said this, he raised his hand and motioned Xing'er to help him back to the dormitory.
Jun Moxu's face became even angrier when he heard this, and he raised his finger and pointed at Qian Yan.
"you………"
"Still thinking about your mistakes behind closed doors? Can thinking about your mistakes behind closed doors make up for your mistakes? Why don't you go to the Bai residence immediately and bring that bitch back to me."
Qian Yan stopped and left when she heard this, but didn't even turn her head back.
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince despises my incompetence, he has taken charge of the Crown Prince's Mansion himself. This person is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and you sent him out yourself, so you should go and get him back yourself. It's late at night, so I will go back to rest."
He left without saying anything after he finished speaking.
Jun Moxu's eyes became even angrier when he saw this.
"Qian Yan, don't you know what's good for you..."
Cang Hong beside him spoke hurriedly.
"Your Highness, it's late, go back and rest. Tomorrow is the Emperor's birthday..."
Jun Moxu spoke angrily after hearing this.
"Why are you resting? Prepare the carriage and go to Bai's house."
Upon hearing this, Cang Hong glanced at the prince and tried to persuade him helplessly.
"Your Highness, please forgive me for being so nosy. It's too late now. If something happens at the Bai residence, it will be even more disadvantageous to you. You should prepare to attend tomorrow's birthday party. After the birthday party, you can go and fetch Chu Liangyuan back. We can deal with this matter after the storm has passed."
Jun Moxu looked at the sky and realized that it was indeed too late.
He walked to the side and sat down dejectedly, then raised his hand and knocked the cup off the table.
Cang Hong took a step forward.
"Your Highness, please allow me to say one more word."
He looked up and saw that Jun Moxu's expression hadn't changed much before continuing to speak.
"Your Highness, you should be better off with the Crown Princess. After all, you and the Crown Princess are now husband and wife. From a profit-based perspective, you are tied together. Only the Crown Princess can help you wholeheartedly. Your Highness, please rest tonight. Tomorrow, you still need to pick up the Crown Princess and go to the palace to attend the birthday banquet."
Upon hearing this, Jun Moxu glanced at Cang Hong coldly.
"You want me to bow down to her?"
Cang Hong couldn't help but feel scared when he met Jun Moxu's cold eyes, but after all, he had followed the prince for many years, so he still gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Your Highness, the rumors are spreading all over the city, and they are extremely unfavorable to Your Highness. If Your Highness and the Crown Princess continue to have conflicts, I am afraid that those villains behind the scenes will target Your Highness again. Your Highness, even if it is for the sake of the overall situation, you must appropriately appease the Crown Princess."
Jun Moxu snorted coldly when he heard that.
"Humph, it's because she doesn't know what's good for her, otherwise I wouldn't have ignored her."
Upon hearing this, Cang Hong continued to persuade.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess has supported the Qian family along the way, and while Baise City is a significant help, City Lord Su's attitude is ambiguous. Even though the Crown Princess has had some disputes with you recently, you have the Crown Prince between you, and you have been married for many years. Your Highness, you should seize what you can."
