Chapter 86 Tang Wei Enters the Palace
Lin ate a steamed apple and felt better. When she took her good sister away, Wen Feng and the others had already left.
After returning to the General's Mansion safely, Lin stretched and sighed, "I thought I'd go out and relax for two days, but I didn't expect it to be more tiring than fighting."
Cheng Shu happened to be resting at home, and asked with concern, "Aunt, you look a little unwell. Did you not sleep well? I heard that the second young lady of the Wuning Marquis's Mansion had an accident at Qinglu Temple, and I thought you might be worried."
Lin smiled and said, "I'm not worried at all, but do you know everything about the second young lady of the Wuning Marquis's Mansion?"
"How could I not know? It spread everywhere yesterday. The Marquis of Wuning's Mansion even sent many servants out of the city..." Cheng Shu was talking about what the people of the capital were discussing yesterday.
The old lady also said, "I thought you would come back yesterday, but I didn't expect you to stay for another day."
Lin glanced at Lin Hao and said, "I was planning to go back, but Ah Hao said it would rain, so I didn't go back. I didn't expect it to rain."
Cheng Shu looked curious: "Ah Hao, how did you know it would rain?"
The old lady also looked at Lin Hao.
Lin Hao said calmly, "I guessed."
Cheng Shu didn't believe it: "Can you guess this?"
"It's not all guesswork, actually." Lin Hao quickly made up an excuse. "Didn't I twist my ankle when I fell from a wall in the spring? Since then, whenever my ankle hurts, nine out of ten times it means the weather will change."
It’s a bit embarrassing to think about it. She is quite talented at making up lies.
Lin felt distressed when she heard this: "So that's what happened. I thought Ah Hao had figured out the ability to observe celestial phenomena on his own."
Lin Hao: So what she said about her natural ability to observe celestial phenomena is true?
The family turned the topic back to the Wuning Marquis Mansion.
"She is in her prime but her face is ruined. The Marquis of Wuning's mansion will have a lot of troubles in the future."
"I don't know if the bad guy has been caught."
In the mansion of Marquis Wuning, his wife was crying to him.
"We will never give up until we catch the person who harmed Wei'er! My Lord, go and tell those government offices to help them avoid being half-hearted."
"I've already informed them." Marquis Wuning's face was gloomy, and his heart was heavy. "But the villain has already fled north. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Finding him will probably be difficult..."
The conclusion of their escape northward was inferred from the discovery of Fang Chengji's body. Fang Chengji's identity had not yet been ascertained, as he had already been taken to the funeral home as an unidentified male corpse.
"Did Wei'er die in vain?" Lady Wuning Hou was so angry that she jumped up and down.
Since she married into the Marquis's Mansion, everything has gone smoothly for her, and she hasn't felt helpless for a long time.
"My Lord, Madam, someone has come from the East Palace." A maid came in to report.
The wife of Marquis Wuning signaled the maid to invite someone in.
The person who came was Lu Shuang, the confidant of Crown Princess Tang Qiang, who also came from the Wuning Marquis Mansion.
"My Lord, Madam, the Crown Princess is worried about the Second Young Lady and asked this servant to come and see her for her."
Everything has its pros and cons. Although the identity of a princess is glorious, it is not as convenient for her to return to her parents' home as for an ordinary woman.
The wife of Marquis Wuning forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry to have worried the Crown Princess. Come with me."
The wife of the Marquis of Wuning personally brought her maid Lu Shuang to Tang Wei's residence. As soon as she reached the door, she heard a crying voice exclaiming, "Miss, Miss, please don't do anything stupid!"
The wife of Marquis Wuning's face changed, and she rushed in without caring about the Marquis's composure. She saw Tang Wei standing on a stool, grabbing the white silk with both hands and putting it around her neck.
The wife of Marquis Wuning was horrified: "Wei'er!"
After a lot of trouble, Tang Wei was sent to the bed. Mrs. Wuning Marquis wiped her tears and said, "Wei'er, aren't you tearing out your mother's heart by doing this?"
Tang Wei stretched her face in front of the wife of the Marquis of Wuning, pointed at the ugly mark and cried, "How can I face people like this? I didn't want to live a long time ago, I just don't want to die in public..."
"Wei'er, you can't think like that. Mother will find a famous doctor for you. There must be a way to remove the brand..."
Looking at the mother and daughter hugging each other and crying, Lu Shuang's eyes also turned red.
I was shocked when I heard that the second girl's face was disfigured, but when I saw it, I realized how serious it was.
After the mother and daughter had cried enough, Lu Shuang gently advised: "Second Miss, please think positively. The Crown Princess is very concerned about you. Doctor Zhao from the Imperial Hospital is the best at treating skin problems. He has agreed to come and see you tomorrow..."
Listening to her mother and Lu Shuang's advice, Tang Wei's desperate eyes lit up a little: "Is there really a good medicine to remove scars?"
"There will always be a way. There are always capable people in this big world." Lady Wuning Hou comforted her daughter, worried that she would continue to be depressed.
Lu Shuang returned to the Eastern Palace from the Wuning Marquis' Mansion to report to the Crown Princess.
"I followed the Marquis's wife to see the second young lady, who was trying to commit suicide..."
After listening to Lu Shuang's words, the Crown Princess felt heavy-hearted, and she couldn't even care about the annoyance she had a few days ago because her cousin from Prince Jing's Mansion became the Crown Prince's concubine.
When it was almost dark and the Crown Prince still hadn't arrived, the Crown Princess instructed Lu Shuang: "Go and ask where the Crown Prince is staying and ask him to come over."
Although the Crown Princess said this, she actually knew in her heart that the Crown Prince must be resting with Concubine Sun.
The prince was enjoying the pleasure of his new beauty when someone from the Crown Princess's side came to invite him. He said to Sun Xiuhua, "I'll go take a look. You take a rest first."
Sun Xiuhua knelt and saluted: "Farewell, Your Highness."
The prince smiled and said, "I told you long ago, there's no need to be so formal."
In reality, he was quite satisfied with this gentle and charming beauty. If there was one thing he didn't have enough of, it was that he hadn't yet taken the Lin sisters into the Eastern Palace.
The prince went to the princess in a good mood, but saw a sad face.
"Is there something wrong, Princess?" the prince asked with concern.
He was satisfied with his new beauty and the Crown Princess's performance. The Crown Princess did not lose her temper because of Concubine Sun's sudden arrival in the palace. Instead, she was very considerate and arranged a good place for Concubine Sun to live.
The Crown Princess hid the coldness in her eyes and sighed, "My second sister returned home today and was very sad. I am very worried that she can't bear the blow of being disfigured."
"My second sister is really disfigured?"
The Crown Princess nodded reluctantly.
"Second sister has suffered so much." The prince held the princess's hand, but in fact, there was no emotion in his heart.
"Your Highness, I want to bring my second sister to the palace to stay for a few days to ease her mood." The Crown Princess stated the purpose of inviting the Crown Prince over.
The prince agreed without hesitation: "Princess, please make the arrangements."
"Thank you, Your Highness." The Crown Princess smiled.
The Crown Prince saw the Crown Princess smile and curled his lips: "I still have things to do, don't think too much, just go to bed early."
The Crown Princess escorted the Crown Prince out of the door, and the coldness in her eyes was finally no longer concealed.
This was her extremely cold and indifferent husband. He said nice things to her, but he wouldn't spend more time with her when she was in a bad mood.
For the prince, his own happiness is always the most important thing.
Fortunately, she had seen it clearly a long time ago.
Two days later, the Crown Princess arranged for someone to go to the Wuning Marquis' Mansion and bring Tang Wei into the Eastern Palace.
