Ha, just thinking about it makes me think Wang Muxuan is extremely foolish. However, although a notice has been posted that Wang Kuanqi's crimes are irrefutable and he is sentenced to be executed in the autumn, he is still alive and we cannot be careless. The Wang family may have a chance to make a comeback. Why not take a look?
Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "Okay, lead the way."
Wang Tu invited him over, and almost as soon as the two arrived at Yipinju, Zhao Shu received the news. She wiped her hands, which were still wet with watermelon. The watermelons in Dayong were much sweeter and more natural than those in modern times. She ate more than half of one in one go, and only stopped when Huo Danlan snatched the silver spoon from her.
Xiao Zhuzi stared at the white cloth covering his head as he approached Zhao Shu and whispered, "Princess, it's done."
After wiping her hands, Zhao Shu instructed Chu Chun, who was waiting nearby, "It's terribly stuffy. Let's divide up the remaining watermelons." Dayong is extremely backward now, and watermelons haven't been grown around the capital yet. The watermelons that are being delivered now are all rushed over from the western border regions, and ordinary people can't afford them.
"This servant thanks the Princess on behalf of my sisters." Chu Chun hurriedly curtsied and thanked Zhao Shu. A piece of skin had been scraped off her face. At first, she hadn't noticed it, but after the doctor came and examined the wound, she realized that a large piece of skin had been torn off her face, and she was afraid it would never heal. She didn't know what she would do in the future. After such a thing happened, the Princess not only didn't blame them, but also asked the doctor to treat them. Now she was even rewarding them with watermelons. At this moment, she was deeply moved.
Zhao Shu waved her hand and leaned lazily against the chaise lounge. "It's nothing. After you've eaten the watermelon, come with me. I'll avenge you all."
"Sigh." Chu Chun hurriedly carried the remaining watermelon downstairs. The day the princess woke up, she said that she would definitely vent her anger. In fact, they did not expect to vent their anger. They only hoped that the princess would not suspect that they had poisoned the water, causing everyone to be injured and the princess to almost lose her life. However, the princess, just as she had said before, would never allow anyone to bully her people.
And that line, "Actually, I trust you all," whether others believe it or not, she herself believes it. It feels so good to be trusted.
Several maids gathered together, cut the watermelon into small pieces, stuck a few toothpicks in them, and placed them on a plate. They then called over the servants, and each of them took a piece. Everyone was unusually quiet, not uttering a word, silently vowing to do their duty well and protect the princess.
After instructing someone to prepare a carriage, Xiao Zhu and Xiao Guo ate two pieces of food and were moved to tears. "Princess, we deserve to die. Please punish us," they said, choking back sobs.
If they had lived in any other household, they would have been dead long ago.
Just then, Zhihai arrived, his ugly face as cold as ice. He sneered, "Since you know you're wrong, then do your job properly. Aren't you ashamed of crying like this? Are you a little girl?"
"Officer Hai." The two hurriedly wiped away their tears and called out.
"Elder Hai, is something the matter?" Zhao Shu asked. Although Zhi Hai had returned to the Prince's Mansion with her, he had not interfered in her affairs. Zhao Shu did not know much about Zhi Hai and did not dare to tell him too much. She simply treated him with the same preferential treatment as Uncle Fu and Granny Zhuang.
Holding his whisk, Zhihai bowed respectfully from afar and said, "Princess, I heard you're going out?"
"Of course, will Elder Hai come along too?" Zhao Shu didn't hide her desire to vent her anger. After suffering such a great injustice, the fact that she didn't immediately bring people with sticks to beat him up showed how well-mannered she was.
Knowing he couldn't dissuade him, Zhi Hai nodded. "Yes, things are a bit unsettled in the capital right now, so this servant must go with you."
"Okay." Zhihai arrived suddenly, and Zhao Shu didn't know where to place him. She just said "okay" and didn't know what else to say.
Before long, the carriages were ready. Magpie helped Zhao Shu slowly move into the carriages, and the group set off in a grand procession.
As soon as they stepped out the door, Yan Zelu came over. He was dressed in plain clothes, with a brown headband on his head, the color of which matched his plain clothes. Xiao Zhuzi and the others knew that he was from the Weiting Division, so they asked, "Commander Yan, is there something you need?"
“My master has booked a private room at Yipinju, but unfortunately he has other important matters to attend to. So he sent me to ask the princess if she wants to go to Yipinju.” Xiao Zhu and the others looked at each other in disbelief. Was this Lord Wei some kind of genius? How did he know that their princess was going to Yipinju?
Zhao Shu, who was in the carriage, understood what he meant and said loudly, "If that's the case, then thank you for your kindness, Lord Wei. Little Zhu, please thank the Commander for me."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhu Zi and the maids accompanying him shared the same thought: What is the princess planning to do? However, the princess must have her reasons for doing this, so they should obey. Thinking of this, he forced an ugly smile and said, "Thank you for informing me, Commander Yan."
Yan Zelu's heart pounded. He'd finally completed his task. At first, he'd thought Princess Jun wouldn't want to go to Yipinju. He craned his neck, trying to find the little maid he'd seen last time, but he couldn't. Could it be that the master had taken a fancy to this still-growing princess of the Yongwang Mansion? Not only was she young, but her reputation...tsk tsk, the master's life was truly full of misfortune...
"I dare not accept such praise." He waved his hands repeatedly, saying "I dare not accept such praise" several times, and then stepped aside to let the carriage pass.
Just then, Green Ivy lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and glared at him fiercely. Already absent-minded, he was even more startled by Green Ivy's glare. Good heavens, she really is the young princess of the Prince Yong's mansion! Oh no, oh no, the master's love life is going to be bumpy. That girl must have said a lot of bad things about the master.
Most importantly, Princess Jun is too young... Could it be that the adults have some kind of strange quirk? The thought of some unspeakable quirk made him shudder; it was too terrifying.
Green Ivy was not in the same car as Zhao Shu, as she was injured. She was in the same car as Chu Chun and the others, while Magpie was with Zhao Shu.
