Chapter 145 Dizziness
I don’t know what medicine I was given. It’s been a long time since I woke up from the coma, and I’m still dizzy.
Ginkgo came over with her bag in her arms and saw Chen Tang sitting on a rock. She had been looking for him for a long time and was worried about him for a long time. Her eyes were red. "Finally I found the girl. I didn't scare you to death just now..."
Chen Tang comforted Ginkgo and said, "Don't you know that Chen Shan is protecting me in secret? Why are you still so worried about me?"
Ginkgo knew that Chen Shan was in the dark, but what if Chen Shan failed to protect her? She was the girl's personal maid, and she would be worried as long as the girl was not around.
Gingko brought the skirt over, Chen Tang looked over there at the bamboo house, Xie Guimo said, "Go ahead, I'll be guarding here, no one will go over there."
Chen Tang went to the bamboo house to change clothes.
She just changed her skirt and it was done quickly. When she came out of the bamboo house, she saw Xie Guimo standing next to the bamboo forest. He was tall and straight, like a pine or a cypress. Chen Tang knew in her heart that although she was reborn, if Xie Guimo hadn't protected her, she would have lost her life, and she was afraid that she would die even faster than in her previous life.
Chen Tang walked towards Xie Guimo, and the maid from Prince Shun's mansion came over. Seeing Chen Tang and Xie Guimo standing together, the maid was a little stunned, and then said, "Second Miss Chen is here, the banquet has started, and the princess asked this servant to come and find you."
Looking for her?
If Xie Guimo hadn't taken her out of the box, Princess Ding'an wouldn't have been able to find her even if she had her maid turn Prince Shun's mansion upside down.
He helped to plot against her and pretended to be clueless. She wanted to see what expression Princess Ding'an would have when she saw her coming back.
The maid led the way, and Chen Tang and Xie Guimo walked towards the garden. Xie Guimo asked Chen Tang, "Are you still dizzy?"
Chen Tang shook his head, "I'm not dizzy anymore."
The maid walked in front with her eyes wide open. Miss Shen and Prince Jingyang seemed to be very familiar with each other. But when Prince Jingyang was poisoned and unconscious, he needed a wedding to bring good luck. Didn’t Miss Shen prefer to be buried with Prince Jingyang than marry him?
Why are these two people here in the bamboo house in Prince Shun’s mansion?
The maid was as curious as a cat, but she didn't even dare to look back, let alone ask.
Chen Tang did not avoid Xie Guimo and let her go first, or go by herself. The two of them just walked over side by side. In the lively banquet, every lady from aristocratic family and every young master from an aristocratic family had their eyes on the two of them.
Chen Tang had a beautiful face and skin as white as cream, and Xie Guimo's face was even more beautiful. There was no one more handsome than him in Kyoto. The two of them walked over, and the sunlight shone on them, as if they had walked out of a painting.
Chu Yi and Prince Duan's son Xiao Xun sat at the same table. Looking at the two of them, the more he looked at them, the more he felt that they looked like a perfect match.
Chu Yi said, "They actually came here together."
Xiao Xun smiled and said, "It looks like I'll be able to drink the wedding wine of Prince Jingyang soon."
The people around were also talking about it. After all, Chen Tang had refused to marry Xie Guimo, and Xie Guimo had saved her on the street and treated her dislocated arm in order to repay her for not marrying him...
However, despite the discussions, few people think that there will be sparks between the two. Both of them have refused to marry, and anyone with a backbone would not marry again. What's more, he is the Prince of Jingyang, who is full of ladies from prominent families in Kyoto. He can marry any of them if he wants. He will not hang himself on a tree.
It must have been a coincidence that we met and came here together.
Be open and honest.
Seeing Chen Tang coming over with Xie Guimo, Princess Ding'an frowned. She looked towards the seat arranged for Chen Tang and Shen Xian in Shun Palace, but didn't see Chen Xian. She had a bad feeling in her heart.
She stood up, walked towards Chen Tang, and said with a smile, "Where did Miss Shen go just now? The banquet has already started for a quarter of an hour."
Although he knew the answer, Chen Tang answered, "I fainted in the pavilion, and my eldest sister helped me to the bamboo house to rest."
Princess Ding'an asked, "Where is Miss Shen? Why can't I see her?"
Chen Tang said, "I'm looking for her too. Maybe she got lost. Princess Ding'an, please send a few more maids to look for her."
Princess Ding'an turned around and instructed the maid. Seeing Xie Guimo walking towards his seat, Princess Ding'an asked, "Why is Miss Shen Er with Prince Jingyang?"
Chen Tang said, "We met on the trail and came here together."
"I see."
Princess Ding'an smiled and said, "Second Miss Shen is late, so she should be punished. Second Miss Shen's sword dance is unique, so why not let her dance with the sword as punishment?"
Princess Ding'an helped someone plot against her. It was already very difficult for Chen Tang to maintain a smile. She was even asked to dance with a sword. Did they really think she was easy to bully? Chen Tang refused and said, "Princess, please forgive me. I'm still a little dizzy and I really can't dance with a sword..."
Chen Tang was "drunk" in the pavilion and was helped to rest by Chen Xian. Many ladies knew about it. She used the excuse that she was dizzy and couldn't dance with the sword. Princess Ding'an didn't punish her or say anything. Although the guest should follow the host's wishes, the host couldn't force her. Princess Ding'an was a little disappointed. She asked Chen Tang to sit down and then went about her own business.
The banquets were all similar, just enjoying singing and dancing, as well as the talents of the ladies and young masters of noble families. Chen Tang was almost plotted against and was in a bad mood. If it wasn't bad, he would have left directly. In addition, he didn't find Chen Xi, so he couldn't go back alone, so he had to stay.
Chen Tang sat there, looking around from time to time, revealing an anxious and worried look. Anyone with eyes could see that she was anxious to find Chen Xi.
The lotus viewing banquet at Shun Wang Mansion lasted for an hour and a half. Chen Tang left the table twice and asked the maid of Shun Wang Mansion, "Have you found my elder sister?"
The maid shook her head, “Don’t worry, Miss Shen Er, I’m still looking for…”
Chen Tang was just pretending. She knew that Chen Xian was not in Prince Shun's mansion, and she was not really worried about Chen Xian.
After Chen Tang urged the maid, he sat back in his seat. Princess Ding'an was sitting there. The maid came forward and whispered in her ear, "Princess, the big box has been sent out of the mansion..."
Princess Ding'an's brows were knotted.
It was the responsibility of Miss Shen Da to send Miss Shen Er out of the house. How come the boxes were out of the house, but Miss Shen Er was still in her Shunwang Mansion?
Could it be that the person in the box is Miss Shen herself?
Princess Ding'an was a little annoyed, especially when she thought of Xie Guimo and Shen Tang coming together. She felt uneasy and regretted helping the Prince of Changping. She always had a feeling that a disaster was about to happen.
After the banquet, Chen Tang went to find Princess Ding'an, "Haven't you found my eldest sister yet?"
Princess Ding'an looked at Chen Tang, trying to read some clues from her face, but her worry didn't seem fake. Princess Ding'an said, "A maid saw Miss Shen leave the mansion before the banquet started. I don't know if she has returned to the Pingyuan Marquis's mansion. How about you go back and take a look?"
Chen Tang didn't want to stay in Prince Shun's mansion any longer, so he nodded and left with Ginkgo.
He urged the servant three times along the way, and when the carriage stopped, Chen Tang got off the carriage and asked the gatekeeper, "Has the eldest lady returned home?"
The servant was a little confused, "The young lady sprained her ankle in Prince Shun's mansion and came back a quarter of an hour ago."
Don’t you know that the second girl and the eldest girl went to Prince Shun’s Mansion together?
...really came back.
Chen Xian went to Prince Shun's Mansion with her, so she must have a reasonable reason to come back early. However, it was not justifiable for her not to accompany Chen Xian when she sprained her ankle and returned early.
Chen Tang pretended to be relieved and stepped into the mansion. He didn't go anywhere and went straight back to Qingyi Garden.
Chen Shan followed Chen Xian. When Chen Xian returned home, Chen Shan must have returned as well.
Chen Tang opened the door, entered the room, and saw Xie Guimo sitting in her boudoir drinking tea.
