Two days later.
Chen Siyuan went out herself to see what was going on outside.
She knew that what she had done was temporary; if she wanted it to be permanent, she would have to come up with a better way.
She rode in a carriage outside and heard people still discussing the Black Dragon.
At this time, rumors began to circulate that a black dragon would be born.
Black Dragon?
It must have originated from royalty.
Chen Siyuan felt that something bad had happened.
If someone takes advantage of the situation you created, the outcome of investigating this matter is uncertain.
I arrived at Nanguan Street with a troubled heart.
The moment she stepped off the carriage, she clearly saw a restaurant open on the street in Nanguan.
This restaurant was huge; it was the largest restaurant she had ever seen in the capital.
Based on the current situation, it will be able to compete with the hot pot restaurant that will soon shock the entire capital.
Who, who exactly is it?
Did they know that Nanguan Street would become the most bustling street in the future, or did they have other plans?
After standing on the carriage for a while, and then taking a closer look at the surroundings, he realized that if this person blocked his way, getting in and out of the street would become a big problem.
She felt uneasy about it.
Soon they arrived at the restaurant on Nanguan Street with Chunlan and Chunping.
The restaurant I'm planning to open is far inferior to the restaurants on the street.
Originally, the intention was simply to provide a place for shoppers on this street to rest, but now it seems that things have become somewhat passive.
After observing the progress of the restaurant's renovation, Chen Siyuan quickly left.
This time there was no destination; Wang Li was to drive the carriage around the capital.
As they walked, the carriage arrived at the bar where Tao Yifan had gotten drunk that day.
The carriage slowly drove by, and Chunlan lifted the curtain, allowing Chen Siyuan to see what was happening inside.
With just one glance, she knew the shopkeeper had changed.
He used to be a middle-aged man, but now he's a young man.
Seeing this, Chen Siyuan was relieved.
It must have been Tao Yifan who did it. Once things here are resolved, no one should be targeting him so quickly.
Feeling slightly relieved, she quickly had Wang Li drive the carriage to the Wen family's residence.
The carriage stopped at the door, and Chen Siyuan quickly ran inside.
Originally, she was looking for her maternal grandfather, but Butler Wang told her that he had gone out early in the morning.
Later, he went to find his eldest cousin Wen Kai, but unfortunately, he wasn't there either. Just as Chen Siyuan was about to leave in disappointment, his second cousin Wen Tao rushed back from outside.
Chen Siyuan was shocked by Wen Tao's appearance. "Second cousin, what's wrong with you...?" He was unshaven, unkempt, and looked very unfamiliar, but there was no trace of dejection in his eyes. It was as if he had suddenly grown up overnight.
Wen Tao didn't say anything, and pulled Chen Siyuan towards his courtyard.
They walked too fast, so Chunlan and Chunping could only jog to keep up.
They arrived at the door and were about to go in when they heard the noise inside, so they could only stand obediently at the door.
"Second cousin—" Wen Tao was different. Thinking of what her grandfather had said last time, and looking at her now, her heart skipped a beat.
Could it be... what she's thinking?
"What are you doing here?" Wen Tao asked back.
"I've come to see my grandfather."
"We're fine here, you don't need to worry."
Chen Siyuan's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Xiao Gong's maternal grandfather was up to something and didn't want her involved?
"Second cousin, actually I..."
"You were the one who did the Black Dragon thing, weren't you?" Wen Tao asked directly.
His cousin had really changed when they met again; her courage was frightening.
They dare to get involved in anything; do they have a death wish?
"How did you know?" Chen Siyuan didn't intend to hide it from Wentao, and the fact that he told her himself made her feel that Wentao had really changed.
"Not only do I know, but the Fourth Prince knows as well."
Upon hearing this, Chen Siyuan's face turned pale. The Fourth Prince was about to face his downfall, and for him to say such a thing now meant that she had been used in this matter, and this person was very likely the Fourth Prince.
"Grandpa is already trying to find a solution. You should go back to the General's Mansion first, and it's best not to come out for the next few days."
Chen Siyuan was very obedient. Before leaving, she didn't forget to tell Wentao, "Second cousin, when you see Grandpa, ask him if he found the person I asked him to find."
"Who?" Just how many important things has his troublesome cousin been involved in?
“Grandpa knows who I’m talking about,” Chen Siyuan said, then quickly turned and left.
She wasn't an ignorant little girl; she saw things more clearly than anyone else.
In the capital, things are not as you imagine. Many people are willing to trample on countless innocent lives in order to climb the social ladder and reach that position.
The Fourth Prince is currently at his lowest point; he's capable of anything for his own sake.
Once Grandpa finds that person, things won't be peaceful on the Third Prince's side. He won't put Grandpa at a disadvantage, but the relationship between Grandpa and the Third Prince will begin to become delicate.
That's the pros and cons of the matter!
In critical moments, no matter what you do, you'll be forced to take sides.
As Chen Siyuan walked, she couldn't help but wonder: How much was the Third Prince involved in this matter? Would the Seventh Prince's men remain silent?
They are all fighting to the death over where they will be in the future. Who can stay out of it?
The seemingly prosperous capital city is fraught with danger; a single misstep could lead to utter ruin!
Back at the General's Mansion, it was very quiet, as if what was happening outside had nothing to do with the General's Mansion.
Chen Siyuan knew that General Fu, who seemed calm on the surface, could not remain uninvolved. In this power struggle, the power of the General's Mansion would determine the final outcome.
