"Prepare the car, I need to go back to the general's mansion."
Thinking of the Shen family, Shen Li decided to go back and tell them.
At the gate of the general's mansion, as soon as Chen Li's carriage stopped, the servants of the general's mansion responded.
"Princess, you are back."
"Well, where are my parents?"
"The master and his wife are now in the living room."
"Any guests?"
"Not long ago, a scholar named Jiang came to visit."
Chen Li paused slightly, then continued to walk inside. His surname was Jiang, could it be Jiang Huaichuan?
Chen Li came to the outside of the reception room and heard the familiar voice of Jiang Huaichuan, who was accompanied by Shen Wensong.
This is not a coincidence!
"Dad, Mom."
When Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui saw Shen Li coming, they stood up excitedly, "A Li is back!"
Shen Wensong and Jiang Huaichuan stood up and said, "I greet Princess Jingnan."
He said lightly and stood up, passing the two of them without pausing.
"Ali, where's Zi'an? Didn't he come back with you?"
Lin Cuicui asked with some concern. When she didn't see Pei Yu coming, she thought the two of them had a quarrel.
"Mom, Ayu is busy, so my daughter came back alone."
Hearing this, Lin Cuicui put aside her worries and said with a smile: "Since you are back, then stay at home for a while."
"good."
Shen Li glanced at Shen Wensong and Jiang Huaichuan, and said to Shen Changshan: “Dad, the Princess of Yan sent someone to find me today and told me something.”
Shen Changshan immediately thought of Shen Jiaojiao in the Prince of Yan's Mansion. He glanced at Shen Wensong and Jiang Huaichuan who were present and said, "Everyone knows each other. Ah Li, just say it directly."
Hearing this, Shen Wensong understood that what Shen Li wanted to say must be related to his aunt.
Jiang Huaichuan was a little confused. Prince Yan's Mansion? What did that have to do with him?
At this time, he had not yet thought of Shen Jiaojiao in Prince Yan's Mansion.
“Today, someone from Prince Yan’s Mansion brought news that Shen Jiaojiao was dead.”
This sentence instantly made the quiet atmosphere in the living room boil. Except for the provincial official, the reactions of the other people were basically the same, some of them couldn't believe it.
Shen Jiaojiao was so young, how could she die?
Shen Changshan quickly calmed down. A Li would not lie to them, and it was the people from Prince Yan's Mansion who spread the news, so it was true.
He was still a little confused. The last time he saw Shen Jiaojiao, he didn't see that she was uncomfortable.
Shen Wensong was surprised. His aunt was still young, and she was gone just like that.
A hint of surprise flashed across Jiang Huaichuan's face, but he quickly regained his composure, as if he didn't know the person he was talking about.
"Well, the people in Prince Yan's Mansion knew that we were related to her, so they sent someone to announce the death."
Shen Changshan was still a little sad, but when he thought of what Shen Jiaojiao had done and said, his expression quickly turned cold.
Shen Wensong's face was full of sadness. His aunt was gone too. So, he had one less relative in this world.
"Princess, can we go to Prince Yan's mansion to pay our respects?"
Chen Li shook her head, "You should go to the Prince of Yan's Mansion to ask about this. After all, he is now a member of the Prince of Yan's Mansion."
Shen Wensong nodded, stood up and bowed to Shen Changshan, "Uncle, I will leave first."
After saying that, he turned around and strode out, completely forgetting about Jiang Huaichuan.
Shen Wensong left, and Jiang Huaichuan didn't want to stay any longer. After saying goodbye, he looked at Shen Li with a dark look in his eyes, "Princess, can I have a chat with you?"
Chen Li shook her head, "Jiang Huaichuan, I am also a woman, it is not convenient for me to get along with men outside."
Shen Changshan understood, "Huaichuan, Ah Li is already married, so we have to avoid suspicion."
Jiang Huaichuan understood and turned to leave.
Shen Changshan looked at Shen Li, "Ali, is this the reason you came back?"
"Well, I have nothing better to do than to send someone back and tell them it's not appropriate. Besides, I'm going back to my house and I'm happy to run anytime."
Lin Cuicui looked at Shen Changshan. She and Shen Jiaojiao did not have a very deep relationship. After all, she was not treated well in the Shen family before. But Shen Changshan was different. She was his younger sister and he had poured a lot of affection into her.
Now……
"Dad, if you want to go, go ahead. Your daughter will go with you."
Shen Changshan shook his head, "Dad won't go."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and left the reception room. Lin Cuicui and Shen Li knew that she was feeling upset, so they did not follow her.
“Mom, Dad is still a little upset. Please comfort him more in the next two days. If he wants to see Shen Jiaojiao, go ahead. I won’t be angry.”
"It's fun. Mom knows. Don't worry about it."
Chen Li stayed at the Shen family until the afternoon before returning to the Jingnan Palace. As soon as they left the general's mansion, they saw Jiang Huaichuan standing outside.
Seeing that he wanted to walk over here, Chen Li lowered the curtain. There was no connection between them, so why bother getting involved.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Pei Yu was seen walking out of the mansion, followed by someone.
Seeing Shen Li coming back, he immediately stepped forward to help her get off the carriage, "You're back to the Shen family, why don't you have dinner there?"
"I'm afraid if I stay there for dinner, my parents will think we've had a fight."
Pei Yu held her hand and said, "I can't bear to let you go."
"I greet the princess."
"Who is this?"
Pei Yu introduced her, "This is a soldier from our army."
"Yang Xu, you go back first."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The two walked into the mansion side by side, "Weren't you going out just now?"
Pei Yu shook his head. "I was planning to pick you up, but now that you're back, I don't have to run anymore."
"Yang Xu is the candidate chosen by Tianqing. He is a good match for Cheng Huan in every aspect. Come and show me again today."
