Chapter 129 Meeting
Sitting in the carriage, Chen Tang was thinking about what birthday gift to give to her second cousin. She had very little contact with the Jiang family in the past, and she didn't know her cousins' preferences, and she couldn't even do the most basic thing to please them.
The first time I give my cousin a birthday gift, I always have to give him something that my second cousin will like.
Arriving at the busy street, Chen Tang went from one shop to another, visiting seven or eight shops in a row, but still couldn't find what he wanted. Coming out of the calligraphy and painting shop, Yin Xing said, "There's a shop selling folding fans not far ahead. The weather is getting hot soon, so we can give the second cousin a folding fan."
Giving a folding fan is a good idea. Chen Tang went to a shop selling folding fans. She was ashamed to say it, but as soon as she entered the shop, she saw one she liked.
The hollow-carved beauty fan, with red sandalwood ribs, was light and beautiful, with a faint scent of sandalwood. Chen Tang couldn't let it go and bought it before going shopping for other things.
She opened the man's folding fan, then closed it again. A pretty figure walked in. Seeing Chen Tang picking up the folding fan, she tried to call out, "Sister Chen Tang?"
Chen Tang turned around and saw Princess Roujia looking at her in surprise, "It's really Sister Chen Tang, I thought I was seeing things."
Chen Tang smiled and said, "I didn't expect to meet the princess here. It seems that the princess is already well."
Princess Roujia said, “Everything was fine two days ago, but why is Sister Chen Tang here?”
Chen Tang, "......???"
Princess Roujia was very surprised to see her just now. Is it strange that she is here?
Chen Tang didn't think much about it and explained, "The second cousin of the Jiang family is having his birthday soon, so I came to pick out a birthday gift for him. Why are you here, Princess?"
Princess Roujia said, "I had a fight with my eldest brother yesterday and tore his folding fan. He insisted that I compensate him with one..."
Princess Roujia had a helpless expression on her face, like her stingy elder brother, and Chen Tang felt envious.
Although the eldest brother has been found, after all, they did not grow up together. Even if they return to their ancestral home in the future, they will definitely not be able to be as close as the siblings between Prince Duan and Princess Roujia. I wonder how they will get along in the future. Chen Tang is looking forward to it.
Both of them wanted to choose folding fans, so they went together, and each picked the best and most expensive ones.
The landscape on the screen was well painted, with a great style. Chen Tang decided to give it to him and said, "It's a rare opportunity to meet. Let's go shopping together again."
Princess Roujia looked at her, "Sister Chen Tang has an appointment with Prince Ning today, it will be too late if we don't go now, do you still have time to go shopping with me?"
She was of course happy that Sister Chen Tang accompanied her shopping, but it would not be nice to stand up Prince Ning for her. They could make an appointment to go shopping together next time.
Chen Tang, "......???"
She made an appointment to meet Xiao Huan?
When did she make an appointment to meet Xiao Huan?
Chen Tang looked at Princess Roujia, "I didn't ask him to meet, why did the princess say that?"
Princess Roujia looked at Chen Tang in a daze, "No? That's what he told me."
Princess Roujia blushed when she said the latter sentence. She was afraid that Chen Tang would misunderstand that she had private contact with Prince Ning, so she hurriedly explained, "Prince Ning was injured while saving me. Yesterday, my mother took me to Prince Ning's Mansion to thank you. I wanted to go to Marquis Pingyuan's Mansion to thank you today, but Prince Ning said that if I went to find you today, it would be a wasted trip. You asked him to meet me at Yanqi Lake and asked me to go to Yanqi Lake as well. We can go boating together then. I, I didn't feel comfortable..."
She really wanted to go, but when she thought about Chen Tang wanting her to be her future sister-in-law, Princess Roujia didn't dare to go. She declined on the spot, saying that Chen Tang must have something important to tell her.
But why did Sister Chen Tang say that she didn’t make an appointment with Xiao Huan?
And it certainly doesn't look like he has an appointment with Xiao Huan.
Princess Roujia looked at Chen Tang, "Did you really not make an appointment with him?"
Shen Tang shook his head.
She even told Princess Roujia that Xiao Huan was her biological brother. If she really had an appointment with Xiao Huan, how could she hide it from her?
Who made an appointment with her elder brother under her guise? !
A sudden sense of uneasiness flashed through Chen Tang’s heart.
Her face turned green when she thought of such pity.
No, could it be that Chen Xi made an appointment with Xiao Huan under her guise? !
It would be fine if Chen Xian just wanted to date Xiao Huan, but she was anxious to get married. In order to avoid the bloody disaster, Chen Xian set her sights on the position of Prince Ning's concubine of Xiao Huan. Although Chen Xian was not Xiao Huan's biological sister, she was still his cousin.
Even if it wasn't Chen Xian, someone was using her as a cover to meet Xiao Huan, so there must be some ulterior motive. Chen Tang didn't want Xiao Huan to make any mistakes.
Thinking of this, Chen Tang's heart trembled like a sieve. She quickly went out and shouted, "Chen Shan!"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Shan appeared in front of Chen Tang. Chen Tang said anxiously, "Quick, go to Yanqi Lake to find Prince Ning and take him away!"
Chen Shan said, "But my mission is to protect the prince...to protect you, Miss Shen..."
If he was asked to go find Prince Ning at Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion, he would not hesitate at all, but Miss Shen Er was on the street now. If anything happened to Miss Shen Er after he left, he would not be able to explain to the Prince.
Chen Tang said anxiously, “Go quickly, Princess Roujia and I will be together, nothing will happen.”
Seeing that Chen Tang was about to cry, Chen Shan also knew what Chen Tang was worried about, and did not dare to delay, "I will go right away."
Watching Chen Shan riding away, Chen Tang anxiously clutched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and Princess Roujia also became worried, "Is everything okay?"
It's going to be okay.
It will definitely be fine!
She must have been overthinking it. Chen Xi was going to the Jokhang Temple, not Yanqi Lake.
Even if the eldest brother really went to Yanqi Lake to see her and found out that it was not her, he would naturally know that someone was using her name, and the eldest brother would not be easily tricked.
Chen Tang kept comforting himself, but his heart was uneasy. Princess Roujia said, "Are you still shopping? How about I take you back to Pingyuan Marquis Mansion?"
The person just now must be the secret guard of Prince Jingyang, who is responsible for protecting Sister Chen Tang. Since the secret guard is not here, she must protect Sister Chen Tang.
Chen Tang was very worried, but until she was sure that Xiao Huan was okay, she couldn't help feeling uneasy wherever she went. Princess Roujia had just frightened her horse a few days ago, so how could Chen Tang dare to let Princess Roujia take her back home?
Chen Tang shook his head, "I am too nervous, let's go for a walk on the street, if everything is fine, we will be back soon."
Wandering around the streets can help you stop having wild thoughts.
Chen Tang suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and diverted her attention. Seeing that she was no longer worried, Princess Roujia was not so worried either. She didn't think anyone could plot against Prince Ning.
The two of them walked along half a street and entered Wancui Pavilion. When they stepped onto the second floor, they happened to meet the son of Marquis Changping coming down from upstairs.
If they walk to the left, the Prince of Changping will walk to the left; if they walk to the right, the Prince of Changping will walk to the right.
After going back and forth a few times, Chen Tang, who was already in a bad mood, became even more annoyed.
At this time, a cynical voice came from behind, "Doesn't the prince of Changping even know how to walk?"
Chen Tang turned around and saw Chu Yi, the son of the Marquis of Xuanyi, walking up to him, waving a folding fan.
The face of the Xuanyi Marquis was icy, "Does the Xuanyi Marquis still want to fight?"
Chu Yi closed his folding fan and said, "My hands are itching to fight. If the Marquis of Changping wants to fight, I will fight him to the end today."
