Chapter 235 Be Careful
The old lady knew that Xie Guimo treated Shen Tang well, but Xie Guimo was not the only one in Prince Jingyang's Mansion. Where there were people, there would be struggles, especially in Prince Jingyang's Mansion, the situation was so complicated that it could not be compared with that in Marquis Pingyuan's Mansion. However, it was inevitable that the aristocratic families would prosper.
Although Chen Tang had said some irritating words before, it was not easy for her to come back now that she was married, and the unhappiness in her heart had long been diluted by reluctance.
With Chen Luo and the fourth room's fifth girl, Chen Xi, there was constant laughter in the room.
Since they were returning to the parents' home, they had to have a return dinner. When it was time to eat, Xie Guimo and Xiao Huan and the others came back, and the whole family sat around a table, eating happily.
Halfway through the meal, a maid came in with a red invitation with gold inlay in her hand, and reported, "My Lord, someone from Prince Ning's Mansion has come to inform you that the wedding date for the eldest young master and Princess Roujia has been set, on the 28th of this month."
The old lady looked at the fourth wife, "Didn't they say it would be on the 22nd?"
The fourth wife also found it strange, "Old Princess Ning wanted to hold the date..."
The maid said, "It should be because the date coincided with the wedding of the daughter of Princess Jinde, so it was moved back a few days."
As she spoke, the maid handed over the red and gold-painted invitation in her hand, "On the 22nd, the eldest young master of the General's Mansion in Huaihua will marry the third young lady..."
Chen Ran and Young Master Xu from the General's Mansion in Huaihua had already had physical contact, and logically she should have been married long ago, but Princess Jinde and her husband had been childless for many years and had never prepared a dowry for their children. Princess Jinde had finally found her daughter, and she really didn't want her to marry so hastily, so she discussed with General Huaihua and his wife and arranged the marriage to proceed normally, with all the formalities of three matchmakers and six betrothals.
Although the Huaihua General's Mansion wanted to marry Chen Ran as soon as possible, they couldn't bear to let Princess Jinde separate from her flesh and blood after more than ten years of separation. Moreover, they agreed that after the marriage, Master Xu would live with Chen Ran in the Princess' Mansion for a while and then move back. Everything was in accordance with the Princess's wishes.
The marriage between Chen Ran and Young Master Xu has been delayed for a long time and cannot be delayed any longer. Xiao Huan will marry Princess Roujia only a few days later, so there is no need to fight for this date. Besides, Chen Ran is also a member of the Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion.
The maid handed the wedding invitation to the old lady for review, and Shen Tang smiled and said, "Congratulations, big brother."
Xiao Huan was a calm person, but his ears turned red at this moment.
Xiao Huan raised his glass and said, "It's all thanks to my sister..."
This is absolutely true. If Chen Tang had not asked Xiao Huan to save Princess Roujia, Princess Roujia would have been killed on the bridge. If Princess Roujia had not been alive, Chen Tang would not have been able to learn from her that Xiao Huan was invited to Yanqi Lake, and Xiao Huan would have been saved from Chen Xi's plan, otherwise Xiao Huan would have been ruined long ago.
Chen Tang also picked up the fruit wine, and Xie Guimo drank a glass with him.
They drank and chatted happily.
The meal took more than half an hour before they took a break. After finishing the return meal, they sat for another quarter of an hour before Chen Tang said goodbye to Xie Guimo.
Xiao Huan escorted them out of the house.
Xie Guimo helped Chen Tang get on the carriage, and then he got in as well. Chen Tang looked at him and said, "Don't you ride a horse?"
Xie Guimo said, "The horse is in the palace."
Chen Tang, "..."
His horse is in the palace, but if he wants to ride a horse, there are plenty of horses for him to ride.
Xie Guimo sat down, Chen Tang sat on the side, lifted the curtain and waved goodbye to Xiao Huan.
Only after the carriage had gone far away and was out of sight did Shen Tang lower the curtain.
Xie Guimo reached out and hugged Chen Tang to sit on his lap. Chen Tang looked at his still red nose. It is said that every failure makes one wiser. This guy might have forgotten what happened when he came here. "You still dare?"
Xie Guimo said, "How can something go wrong every time?"
Not holding, not getting used to it.
Chen Tang asked, "What if?"
Xie Guimo reached out and pinched Chen Tang's nose, "Can't you just hope for yourself to be better?"
“…Just pretend I didn’t say anything,” Chen Tang said.
Xie Guimo didn't believe that he would be so unlucky, and Chen Tang didn't believe it either.
But sometimes you just can't help but believe.
At the place where the accident happened on the way here, when the carriage was passing by on the way back, Chen Tang and Xie Guimo were talking, the carriage suddenly tightened the reins and stopped. If Xie Guimo hadn't hugged Chen Tang's waist in time, Chen Tang would have fallen off him.
Chen Tang was still in shock, "What happened this time?"
The one who answered was not the carriage driver, but Chen Qi, "I don't know what happened. The Prince of Changping looked anxious. If the carriage hadn't stopped in time, it would have hit him..."
When Chen Tang lifted the curtain of the carriage, he saw the usually bustling and bustling downtown area, which was in chaos because of the Prince of Changping Marquis riding his horse, with people and horses stumbling.
What's so urgent that you have to rush?
Moreover, that direction is neither the Changping Marquis Mansion nor the Imperial Palace.
Nothing happened in his previous life that made the Prince of Changping so anxious. Chen Tang found it strange. She looked at Xie Guimo, and Xie Guimo ordered Chen Qi, "Go check it out."
Chen Qi took the order and left.
The servant continued to drive the carriage, but after a while, the carriage stopped again.
But this time the speed was slow, and the servant said, "My Lord, the prince of Xuanyi Marquis is coming."
While he was talking, the sound of knocking on the carriage was heard.
Chen Tang quickly sat aside. Xie Guimo lifted the curtain and saw Chu Yi riding on a horse. Xie Guimo asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Chu Yi shook his head. "I have nothing to do with you. My second uncle asked me to tell you something, to be careful of your second brother."
Why did the second master of Xuanyi Marquis' Mansion let Chu Yi remind Xie Guimo of this?
Xie Guimo asked, "Why do you remind me like this?"
Chu Yi said, "Originally my second uncle just asked me to remind you, but after my tireless questioning, I finally got the answer."
"Last time, Mrs. Shen's carriage hit your carriage. It was your second brother Xie Guiyin who did it. My second uncle saw it with his own eyes..."
At the beginning, Chen Tang asked Xie Guimo to help prevent the second master from being promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. In order to help Chen Tang, Xie Guimo promoted Chu Yi's second uncle.
Master Chu Er has always remembered the favor of Xie Guimo. Originally, the brothers were fighting among themselves, and it was not convenient for outsiders to interfere. It would have been fine if Master Chu Er didn't know, but he happened to see it and didn't tell Xie Guimo. What if Xie Guimo didn't know that his half-brother had evil intentions towards him? Master Chu Er struggled for a long time and decided to remind him tactfully.
It's just that Master Chu wanted to be tactful, but his nephew was eager to get to the bottom of things. Chu Yi knew that his uncle was not the kind of person who would meddle in other people's business, especially such a matter. He kept asking questions for a long time, and finally Chu Yi said, "If Uncle doesn't tell me the whole story, how can I answer Prince Jingyang when he asks about it? Do you want him to ask you in person?"
Master Chu Er was troubled, "Then you just pretend that my uncle never said anything."
Chu Yi said, "Second Uncle, what I said is what I said. I can't take it back."
Master Chu was so angry that he wanted to beat him up.
Birds of a feather flock together. Xie Guimo was able to go out and play with Chu Yi, but he might come back and ask him about it. Master Chu had no choice but to tell Chu Yi.
