The eldest prince looked at Lian Yi's sweet smile, his mind full of thoughts. He was very familiar with this voice and would never forget it in his life. That day outside the Huguo Temple, it was the owner of this voice who killed all those who were chasing him and saved his life.
The eldest prince was very sure that the other party had recognized him, otherwise he would not have spoken so casually. He calmed himself down before speaking:
"I am Mr. Huang who came with my friends to attend the chrysanthemum viewing banquet."
"So you are the Prince of the Emperor. If you don't mind, you can sit down and enjoy the cool air with me. I am feeling heavy right now, so please forgive me if I am being rude."
Lianyi said with a smile, touching Xuanfeng's head, with no intention of getting up.
The eldest prince also noticed Lianyi's bulging belly, which looked like she was about to give birth. He did not sit down. His identity was sensitive. Although the person in front of him was his benefactor, he still had to be on guard. So he smiled and bowed, saying:
"I am sorry for disturbing you. I just wanted to stand high and see far, and watch the fun, but the lady's cat found me."
"It's okay. I want to watch the fun, but the conditions don't allow it!"
Ripple said as she touched her belly with a smile.
"Then I won't bother you anymore."
The eldest prince bowed and turned to leave.
The maids around Lianyi breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the man leave, for they were afraid that this man had some ideas about Lianyi's belly.
Not long after the eldest prince walked out, he met a capable man in a royal blue brocade robe. The man bowed to the eldest prince and whispered something in his ear. Then the two of them left directly, apparently leaving the back garden.
Lianyi continued to enjoy the cool air and wait for news, eating melon seeds and fruits while petting the cat, looking very relaxed and contented.
Nanny Sun went for a walk and then returned to the pavilion. She looked calm. She bowed to Lianyi and then said in a low voice:
"Madam, Miss Zhao fell into the lake by accident. Commander Feng happened to be passing by and saw someone falling into the water, so he helped her."
Lian Yi shook his head and said:
"You are the second daughter of the prime minister's family, don't you even have a maid or a nanny by your side? At the very least, we have servants in our house. Why would we let Commander Feng go into the water to save people?"
"I heard that when Miss Zhao II fell into the water, she sent the maidservant away to look for the handkerchief she had left behind."
Nanny Sun said helplessly.
Any woman in the inner house would understand this excuse. It was because Miss Zhao was planning something, so she sent everyone away in advance.
"Commander Feng got a great bargain this time."
Ripple said with a smile.
"Mrs. Hou is worried about this matter."
Nanny Sun said helplessly.
'What does this have to do with me?'
Lian Yi thought so in her heart, but she did not say it out loud. Instead, she said to Nanny Sun:
"Mammy, you don't have to stay here with me. Go see if mother needs any help. I'm not feeling well, so I won't cause any more trouble."
"Yes, Madam."
Nanny Sun bowed, then turned around and left in a hurry.
At this time, Duoduo sent a message to Lianyi:
"Master, that Miss Zhao II was targeting the eldest prince. After she saw that it was the eldest prince, she jumped down by herself. But the eldest prince was also a god. He turned around and ran away without even calling anyone.
Miss Zhao was panicked when she saw this. She had pretended to fall into the water before, but when she saw that her plan failed, she panicked and fell directly into the artificial lake. She choked on the water and was in a very miserable state. She could only swim to the lake by herself.
Commander Feng was hiding in this rockery. When he saw the eldest prince running away, he showed up and asked the people around him to shout that someone had fallen into the water. Then he jumped into the water and picked up Miss Zhao who was about to swim to the shore. "
Duoduo's voice was very excited.
"It seems that Commander Feng is not so innocent after all!"
Lianyi thought that Commander Feng was just passing by and saw someone fall into the water and reached out to save him. She didn't expect that he seized the opportunity and took decisive action.
"Yeah, when Miss Zhao Er saw that it was Commander Feng who saved her, she didn't know what to do for a moment, so she pretended to faint after getting ashore."
"There is no solution to the problem, so I can only faint."
Lianyi agreed with Miss Zhao's approach. After all, the incident happened in the Marquis of Anding's Mansion, and the mansion must give an explanation. As for what the prime minister's family plans to do, whether they will accept the marriage with a pinch of their nose, or have other ways to solve the problem, it depends on whether the prime minister loves his daughter.
When Lianyi was happily chatting with Duoduo, Lin Yaozu came to the back garden with his personal servant to find Lianyi.
"Husband, why are you here?"
Lianyi made a move to stand up, but actually had no intention of getting up, because Lin Yaozu pushed her back.
"I was worried about you, so my mother asked me to come pick you up. As soon as I entered the mansion, I heard from the servants that someone had fallen into the water in the back garden. I was so anxious that I came here directly."
After Lin Yaozu lifted up his robe and sat down, he took a special look at Lianyi's belly.
"Don't worry, my husband. I have Nanny Zhen, who was specially assigned to me by my mother-in-law. She didn't even let me get close to the lake. She just let me sit in this pavilion and enjoy the cool air."
Ripple explained with a smile.
Lin Yaozu nodded at Nanny Zhen with satisfaction. The people sent by his mother were still very useful.
"Husband, I'm afraid this matter may be a bit troublesome."
Lian Yi said in a deliberately low voice.
"The person who fell into the water has a special identity?"
Lin Yaozu asked.
Although his father was the Minister of War and he now had an idle job, he still knew the ins and outs of the imperial city.
“My husband is really smart. She was the second daughter of the prime minister’s family. She fell into the water for no reason and she didn’t even have a maid by her side. The person who saved her was Commander Feng.
Normally, the guests who come to the back garden to enjoy the flowers are all female guests, while the male guests are in the courtyards of my two brothers, but she is the only one who came here."
Lianyi didn't finish her words, but her meaning was very clear.
"It's good that you know about this matter. If others ask you, just pretend you don't know."
Lin Yaozu said immediately.
"Well, I just sent Nanny Sun to inquire about the situation. Since you came to pick me up, let's go back to the mansion! It's better for me not to get involved in the affairs here."
Ripple said immediately.
Anyway, she went back to the Marquis of Anding's Mansion, and the Marquis's wife had achieved her purpose of "drugging". Now that something happened, no one had time to deal with her, so she took the initiative to leave with her husband.
"Well, I came here to pick you up. Just ask Nanny Zhen to inform Madam Hou. Don't be impolite."
Lin Yaozu said immediately.
He is very savvy about some things.
In less than half an hour, Lianyi and Lin Yaozu got on the carriage back home. This time they did not bring Nanny Sun with them. After all, she was a loyal servant and wanted to be loyal to her, so Lianyi would not stop her. She also specifically asked Nanny Sun to stay for a few more days and tell her what happened next when she came back.
So after Lianyi and her group returned to their own courtyard, she directly asked Madam Lin for Nanny Zhen to be the managing nanny of her own courtyard.
Lianyi's action made the servants in the yard tense. Nanny Zhen was an old employee of the Shangshu Mansion, and was personally assigned by Madam Lin to serve the Young Madam, so they dared not have any small thoughts.
Nanny Sun doesn't know yet that her status will plummet when she returns to the Shangshu Mansion five days later.
