Chapter 124 Crisis



There was such a big commotion outside, it was impossible for those in Prince Zhan's mansion to be unaware of it.

However, the prince and princess were not at home, and neither Nan Jing nor Butler Deng, who was still in the mansion, knew how to deal with the matter.

After all, they all knew that what the Prince of Duan's Mansion had done in this mansion was a fact, and if things went wrong, this matter would directly affect the future of their own prince.

Therefore, after hearing the doorman's announcement, they could only stand behind the door, and no one dared to order the doorman to open the door.

But just closing the door is not a solution.

For a moment, a group of people stood behind the gate, anxious and angry.

"What happened?"

At this moment, Shangguan Ruoning appeared with a fragrant smell.

But when Shangguan Ruoning approached, everyone couldn't help but frown when they smelled the rich fragrance - the fragrance was really too pungent.

Shangguan Ruoning had been tormented so much during this period that it could be said that she had a shadow in her heart, so she became extremely sensitive to other people's reactions.

Seeing everyone frowning and covering their noses, Shangguan Ruoning's first reaction was that the bad smell on her body was still there.

Shangguan Ruoning subconsciously took a step back, with fear and panic in her eyes.

Although she had made herself smell nice these days, the stench seemed to be with her like a shadow, and she could still smell it from time to time.

After all, the taste was really too strong.

Just thinking about the purpose of her coming to this gate, Shangguan Ruoning suppressed the urge to retreat.

Butler Deng didn't notice anything unusual about Shangguan Ruoning. He just covered his nose slightly and told her the whole story with a respectful look.

Shangguan Ruoning heard this and immediately said, "That's sheer nonsense! How could the prince kidnap the prince of Prince Duan's mansion?"

When Shangguan Ruoning said this, Steward Deng's face showed a hint of discomfort, but he still said, "My Lady Concubine, what should we do in this situation?"

Butler Deng knew that the prince of Prince Duan's Mansion was in Qingyu Courtyard, but the prince had ordered that this matter should not be made known to anyone, so he did not dare to tell Shangguan Ruoning.

But Shangguan Ruoning was the concubine in the mansion after all, and now the only master in the mansion, so Butler Deng still asked Shangguan Ruoning for her opinion.

Shangguan Ruoning naturally noticed the unnaturalness in Butler Deng's eyes, which made a gloom pass through Shangguan Ruoning's eyes.

It turns out that everyone knew it, but they just kept it from me.

Ye Cangming, is he really that ruthless?

In that case, don't blame her.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Ruoning straightened up, with a proud look on her face, "Our palace is upright and has nothing to fear from its own shadow. Since they are making trouble, we will open the gate of our palace and let them see."

When Butler Deng heard this, his expression froze.

Nan Jing frowned even more when he heard this, and the other guards looked at each other in confusion.

Everyone had only one thought in their mind: How could this be possible?

Nan Jing stepped forward and glanced at Shangguan Ruoning. Thinking of Shangguan Ruoning's eye-catching face before, Nan Jing immediately lowered his eyes and reminded her, "My Lady Concubine, this is Prince Zhan's Mansion, not everyone can enter."

If everyone could enter Prince Zhan's Mansion and take a look, wouldn't it have long become a target for anyone to hit?

Moreover, if someone really came in and saw the little prince, the situation would be even more out of control.

Shangguan Ruoning: "I know that not everyone can enter the palace, but if this matter gets out of hand, it will be bad for the palace. I think it's better to face it head-on."

Shangguan Ruoning then ordered Butler Deng, "Butler, what are you still standing there for? Why don't you open the door?"

Butler Deng hesitated.

How can I open the door at this time?

Shangguan Ruoning saw that Butler Deng didn't move, and her face turned cold. "Do you really want to make things out of control?"

Butler Deng and Nan Jing both looked unhappy, but they also knew that they really couldn't open the door now.

Shangguan Ruoning's eyes were sinister, but she knew things couldn't just end like this, so she suppressed her anger and softened her tone. "Even if we don't let them in, we can't just have them wait outside, right? If we do that, won't people think we in the Zhan Palace are guilty?"

As soon as Shangguan Ruoning said this, not only Butler Deng, but even Nan Jing felt that this was the truth.

Nan Jing and Butler Deng looked at each other, and finally Butler Deng said to Shangguan Ruoning, "But if the door is opened later, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble the concubine to help entertain them."

As servants and men, they were not suitable to entertain female relatives.

The only suitable candidate now is Shangguan Ruoning.

Shangguan Ruoning felt relieved when she heard the housekeeper say this, but a proper smile appeared on her face, "This is what I should do."

Shangguan Ruoning looked towards the gatehouse and said in a deep voice, "Open the door."

Seeing Shangguan Ruoning like this, Butler Deng couldn't help but nodded with recognition in his eyes.

She even felt that the prince was wrong to treat this concubine coldly.

After all, there is really nothing much to say about the concubine. Not only is she born into a good family and has good character, but the key is that she is deeply in love with the prince.

Nan Jing watched the doorman open the door and felt very uneasy. He instinctively wanted to stop him.

After all, in the past, he had no prejudice against Shangguan Ruoning, the concubine, and thought she was a suitable match for the prince.

But he knew Shangguan Ruoning very well now, and he always felt that it was inappropriate to let Shangguan Ruoning handle such a big thing today.

But Nan Jing couldn't figure out what was wrong, and there was really no other good solution in the current situation.
