Chapter 137 Side Room



Chen Siyuan smiled.

At this moment, Chen Siyuan learned that after what had happened, Qiao Yuchen had replaced everyone in the entire East Garden, and Wang Li took this opportunity to place his own people in.

Suddenly, Chen Siyuan felt that she had been reborn and was finally able to truly see the strength of the people around her.

"What did the old general want to see Qiao Yuchen about this time?"

Chunlan shook her head in shame, "I don't know."

Chen Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Remember, you can inquire about other people's affairs, but don't get involved in the old general's and Qiao Yuchen's affairs."

Chunlan and Chunping were surprised, but seeing the young lady's determined eyes, they had no choice but to agree.

Chen Siyuan felt that in her past life, she had always revolved around Song Ji, and she centered many things around Song Ji. Qiao Yuchen supported the Seventh Prince and didn't know much about the movements of this faction.

As I pondered, I suddenly remembered a sentence I had overheard in my past life.

Judging from the timeline, the Third Prince must have made a big move recently, seemingly eliminating the influence of one of the princes and then swallowing it all up.

Who is it?

Upon careful recollection, she recalled a blurry figure, which seemed to be the Fourth Prince.

Chen Siyuan breathed a sigh of relief after confirming the identity of the fourth prince.

As long as it's not Qiao Yuchen, that's fine.

The thought that Qiao Yuchen was supporting the Seventh Prince kept her from calming down for a long time.

With the Fourth Prince gone, how many are still worthy of being considered the Third Prince's rivals?

Chen Siyuan knew the general outline of many things, but she had no intention of getting involved, much less trying to change them.

She knows her own capabilities in many things, and she would never overestimate her abilities or try to change the outcome.

......

dinner.

Chen Siyuan originally thought Qiao Yuchen would come back, but after waiting for a long time, she didn't see him and ate dinner by herself.

After the meal, the wounds on my body healed, but I was still weak from the injury.

I'm reading a book while leaning against the bed.

I was looking at it very slowly, just to kill time. Later, I felt that time was passing too slowly, so I started looking at the account books.

This time, the time didn't feel so agonizing.

After reviewing the two ledgers, it was already past midnight.

Chunlan and Chunping, who were serving by her side, both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the young lady had finally stopped.

"He didn't come back?"

"Yes, he's been in the study the whole time and hasn't come out yet."

Chen Siyuan was clearly taken aback and asked, "Did you hear anything?"

"without."

That's strange.

It seems that General Qiao and Qiao Yuchen do not have a good relationship, and Qiao Yuchen has not given the other face. They will be quietly in the study without making any noise.

This is clearly illogical.

Just as Chen Siyuan was wondering why this was happening, she suddenly heard a commotion outside. She glanced at the two maids, then quickly gathered up the account books and placed them aside, picking up another book in her hand.

It was a completely subconscious action, a habit from a past life.

Song Ji needed money to bribe officials in all aspects of his life, but he always felt that the woman who looked at the account books was too vulgar.

Thinking about it, Chen Siyuan smiled, a cold smile. It seemed that although there were differences in every aspect of her past life, she still completely overlooked them.

What kind of ignorance must one possess to be so blind?

"Who made you angry?" Qiao Yuchen saw the woman's expression as soon as he entered, and glanced at the two maids beside him.

"You're back?" Chen Siyuan raised her head slightly to meet Qiao Yuchen's gaze. In just one glance, she saw the weariness in his eyes and remembered what Chunlan had just said. She had a general idea in her mind, but she wisely didn't say it.

"Hmm." Qiao Yuchen took off his coat and came to the bedside. "Have you applied the medicine?"

"Um."

"Did you take your medicine?"

"I ate it." Chen Siyuan didn't intend to tell Qiao Yuchen about this, only because it involved Wang Li.

Chunlan and Chunping were a little worried when they heard Qiao Yuchen's words. Fortunately, the young lady's words told them what to do.

"That's good. I'll have someone send some tonics over tomorrow, and you can choose whichever you like."

"a lot of?"

"It's alright!" No matter what it is, if he wants it, he can get it. Even the treasures in the palace are all his if he wants them.

"Pfft—" Chen Siyuan laughed, "Why do you act like a nouveau riche?"

"It's alright. I used to think it was better to keep a low profile, but now I don't think it's necessary."

Chen Siyuan looked at Qiao Yuchen and smelled the alcohol on him. She didn't say anything and watched the man busy beside her.

When Chen Siyuan saw that she had taken off my coat and was preparing to rest, she couldn't stay calm. She got up and prepared to leave the bed.

After I was injured, I was bedridden. Now that I'm better, there's no need for me to stay here. Besides, we have a cooperative relationship.

It wouldn't be good if something happened while we were lying in the same bed.

She knew about men's inherent weaknesses, and therefore, she didn't want to take the risk.

It's not about protecting one's body for anyone else, but rather that I believe cooperation is cooperation, and there shouldn't be too many complications.

"You lie here, I'll go to the side room." Qiao Yuchen was very easy to talk to, and he carried the blanket to the side room next door.

Chunlan and Chunping stood to the side, not expecting to hear these words, and were quite surprised.

They served the young lady by her side until she lay down before leaving.

Upon arriving outside, they saw Wang Yong and Yang Lei guarding the door, and quickly left.

They saw that the young lady and Qiao Yuchen were sleeping in separate beds, but they didn't say anything.

......

The next day.

When Chen Siyuan woke up, Chunlan and Chunping came in to serve her.

It was only when they were helping her wash up that she realized Qiao Yuchen had left long ago.
