Chunping rushed back from outside, covered in sweat, as if she had been quite frightened.
Chen Siyuan looked over and asked, "What's wrong?" She didn't even realize that her voice was trembling as she spoke.
Jiang Ma was very worried when she saw this, and paid even more attention to what Chunping would say next.
“Young Madam, yesterday the Empress Dowager invited all the young ladies who stay at home to Ping’an Temple in order to find the Crown Princess.”
boom--
Chen Siyuan's head seemed to explode from those words.
I haven't been able to move around for a long time.
After Chunping finished speaking, she looked at the young mistress with concern.
After hearing the news, she checked it several times before confirming that it was true.
Thinking of Master Yide's actions, and the Empress Dowager and Consort Hua's private meeting with Chen Siyuan, they guessed the general idea.
It took Chen Siyuan a while to calm down. She looked at Chunping, her hands clenched tightly in nervousness. "Are you sure?"
"yes."
Chen Siyuan's face paled even more.
Looking at Chunping, she found Ping'an Temple very strange; it turned out there was something else going on.
Thinking about it, I became even more worried, and then I saw the jade bracelet on my wrist.
Her heart was pounding.
He had already formed a bold guess in his mind, and finally understood why the Empress Dowager and Consort Hua were targeting him so much.
Clearly, the Empress Dowager and Consort Hua have joined forces in order to push the Third Prince to the position of Crown Prince.
Originally, the purpose of this prayer was to arrange a marriage for the Third Prince using the Crown Princess's identity, so that the Third Prince could obtain the position of Crown Prince first.
This is also because the Emperor's health has been good recently, and someone came up with a compromise.
A perfectly good plan was ruined by my own accidental discovery.
So... thinking about it, looking at the slightly ashes of the note beside her, she now had a belief that the Empress Dowager and Consort Hua wanted to kill her.
A wave of despair washed over me!
She meant well, so how did it end up like this?
That evening, Chen Siyuan had little appetite and even skipped the chicken soup that had been prepared for her.
The next day, early in the morning.
Chen Siyuan hurriedly went out.
Soon the carriage arrived at Xinyuan Teahouse, which was mentioned in yesterday's note.
This teahouse wasn't as grand as I'd imagined; it was just an ordinary teahouse where anyone could come in and have tea without worry.
Chen Siyuan's outfit made her stand out in this place.
She went up to the second floor and found a spot. There weren't many people there, but Chen Siyuan still became a spectacle to be seen.
She didn't care, and Chunlan and Chunping also tried to stand calmly to the side.
After finishing one pot of tea, Chen Siyuan ordered another.
Later, they also ordered two plates of pastries.
She ate and drank slowly, looking out the window, as if she wasn't waiting for someone, yet she wasn't Chen Siyuan who was in such a hurry that she didn't even have time to eat.
After finishing her meal and drinks, Chen Siyuan felt it was getting late. She felt like she had been tricked by the child, but she wasn't angry.
I got up and went downstairs. As soon as I got to the first floor, there wasn't a single person in the entire teahouse.
Chen Siyuan saw it, but pretended not to see it and continued walking out.
Just as I was about to reach the door, a voice came from behind me.
"Miss Chen, are you really willing to leave like this?"
Even if that voice turned to ashes, I could still hear it myself.
She composed herself, turned around, and saw a man walking in from a nearby room, lifting the curtain.
The fifth prince of Chen Kingdom, who else could it be but him?
Her exotic appearance, the earring in her left ear, and the purple eyes unique to the Chen royal family.
Considering that their last meeting was in the southern part of the city, and now they're in the capital, and he can come and go as he pleases, some people are really too idle.
He already had a bad impression of this person, but when he saw the familiar hairpin in his hand, his eyes narrowed instantly.
"Young Master Ruoli, you have quite the refined taste!" he said with a forced smile.
Ruoli spoke calmly, seemingly unaware of the identity of the fifth prince of Chen.
"Miss Chen, do you still remember?"
“Of course.” Chen Siyuan said, her gaze immediately falling on the hairpin in the man’s hand.
Ruoli noticed her expression.
A playful smile curled slightly at the corners of his thin, cool lips.
She really is a little fox; even after all this time, she still remembers.
Ruoli thought about it and walked towards a table next to her.
Chen Siyuan followed, with Chunlan and Chunping beside her.
A servant dressed in light blue brought over a tea set.
As Ruoli slowly began brewing Kung Fu tea, Chen Siyuan had no particular thoughts; she simply watched and waited quietly.
Ruoli glanced at Chen Siyuan, impressed by her composure.
No wonder she couldn't get any benefits from Tao Yifan and turned to Qiao Yuchen instead; she really is a ruthless woman.
He brought the brewed tea to Chen Siyuan.
Chen Siyuan placed one hand on the teacup and the other on the bottom of the cup, smelled it, and looked at the other person.
"The tea is good tea, the water is good water, but it's a pity."
"Oh?" This woman knows how to drink tea?
This surprised Ruoli.
The Shang people drank tea, but they didn't know how to appreciate it.
Unexpectedly, this lady from the inner courtyard could say such a thing.
Chen Siyuan seemed oblivious to the scrutinizing gazes directed at her, and showed no concern for yesterday's note. It was as if everyone present was testing and showing off.
Chen Siyuan put down her teacup, glanced at the other person, and said, "Ruoli, let me teach you Kung Fu tea."
"Teach?" The fifth prince of Chen laughed.
Teaching him how to make tea is ridiculous.
He only said a few ambiguous words, which could fool people. But to really brew Gongfu tea, one needs several years of experience and the ability. Besides, he didn't have any real understanding of brewing Gongfu tea. He could only do some movements, but he couldn't find the soul of brewing tea.
