Chapter 187 Princess Zhaoyang's Design
Su Qianqian didn't have time to think too much, and quickly caught up with the palace maid. She gave Su Mu a look, and Su Mu immediately reached out and grabbed the palace maid.
"What are you doing?" The palace maid was angry and anxious, and shook Su Mu's hand hard.
"Where are you going, sister? Where is Princess Zhaoyang? Our wife wants to go and see the princess, but she can't be found anywhere..."
"Hmph!" The maid angrily shook off Su Mu's hand and glanced at him with contempt:
"Madam? Not soon! Can Her Royal Highness the Princess meet anyone? Get out of the way. I have something urgent to do. If you delay, your head will be chopped off!"
The palace maid turned around and continued to rush towards the front yard. It seemed that she was heading towards the warm room where the master received guests.
[My lady, this palace maid came out from a reception courtyard on the west side. Princess Zhaoyang is there! She ordered the palace maid to report to the Crown Prince and Madam Xiao that the Marquis had mistakenly entered her dressing room and was now too embarrassed to face anyone! 】
The system is a little anxious.
[The Marquis is there too?] I'm so lucky! No wonder they said I won't be a lady soon. Thank you! 】
Su Qianqian was no longer in a hurry. She turned around and instructed Su Mu, then went to find Qin Yuzhuo.
Su Mu blinked and walked to the side with Su Qianqian: "Madam, let's go over there and have a look. Miss Zhou has already looked for this place."
"Okay." Su Qianqian agreed and followed Su Mu over there.
The courtyard here is quiet and peaceful. Occasionally, a servant would pass by and would hurriedly bow his head when he saw a guest.
As they walked, they saw two palace maids standing outside the door of a small courtyard in front of them, looking around nervously. Two servants who wanted to bring them food were also driven away by them.
Su Qianqian glanced at Su Mu, who was standing there quietly and nothing unusual happened.
[I am destined to end up here. Is it God who wants me to take care of this matter? 】Su Qianqian muttered in her heart.
What if you don’t care? Do you want the princess to come into the palace and become her concubine or something? I will massage the princess' shoulders and back every day, rub her head and wash her feet, and even ride on her head...】
[Stop talking!] I want to see how she rides on my head! 】
Su Qianqian interrupted the system and finally aroused her fighting spirit after imagining herself serving Princess Zhaoyang.
Before the Crown Prince and Madam Xiao arrive, go and see what's going on.
When they arrived at the courtyard, two palace maids recognized Su Qianqian. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do, and could only bow woodenly.
"Is Princess Zhaoyang here? Now that I am here, I should go in and pay my respects to her. Please report to her."
"Princess...she is changing her clothes right now and it is not appropriate for her to meet guests..." a palace maid replied hesitantly.
"Then I will go in and wait." Su Qianqian walked inside. Two palace maids tried to stop her. Su Qianqian raised her eyebrows and smiled: "If you stop me, can you bear the consequences if the princess blames you?"
The two palace maids stopped, looking like they wanted to stop them but didn't want to. Su Qianqian had already walked in with Su Mu.
The courtyard was quiet. Although the flowers and plants had withered, there were sparse bamboo forests to shade it. Following the path, I entered two moon gates and passed a huge carp tank. There were three upper rooms. At this time, the doors and windows were closed, and a palace maid was guarding the door.
When the palace maid saw Su Qianqian coming in, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and then she forced herself to remain calm and walked over to her.
"Madam Wuning, the princess is changing clothes inside and cannot see you at this time."
"It's okay, I'll wait here." Su Qianqian smiled patiently.
"Madam, you..." The maid wanted to say something.
"What's your name?" Su Qianqian suddenly asked.
"My name is Huichun." The maid answered instinctively.
[Stay at Huichun.] 】Su Qianqian used a talisman to immobilize the body.
Huichun really didn't move.
"Huichun, how can the princess change her clothes without anyone to serve her? The princess is of noble status, so I will go in and serve her personally."
Su Qianqian said as she walked in: "Since you don't object, then you are willing."
Opening the door that was locked from the outside, Su Qianqian saw a four-panel screen separating the hallway. She walked in and felt inexplicably nervous: Does this count as catching an adulterer?
The situation in the room made Su Qianqian stunned for a moment.
Princess Zhaoyang, half-dressed and with a flushed face, stood outside the door of the inner dressing room, pushing it hard from time to time, but unfortunately the door was firmly shut and did not budge.
"Your Highness, Princess, what are you doing?" Su Qianqian couldn't help but ask curiously.
When Princess Zhaoyang saw Su Qianqian coming in, she was startled at first, and then a hint of pride flashed in her eyes.
"Madam Wuning Marquis, I was changing my clothes when Wuning Marquis suddenly barged in. I questioned him but he hid in his inner room and refused to come out. I am ashamed to face my father, the emperor and my mother, so I have no choice but to ask my brother, the crown prince, to seek justice for me."
Princess Zhaoyang said this while covering her face in a pretentious manner.
[It turned out that Princess Zhaoyang had colluded with Lu Jun. Lu Jun invited Marquis Wuning to come here to discuss Madam Shaohua's case. After entering the room, Lu Jun left and locked the door, and the palace maids came out to guard.
When Marquis Wuning saw Princess Zhaoyang coming out, he turned his back and tried to leave the room. When Princess Zhaoyang chased him, he hid in the inner room and blocked the door from inside. No matter how Princess Zhaoyang pushed and ordered, the door would not open. 】
The system's voice sounded relaxed, even a little gloating.
[Princess Zhaoyang sent a maid to report the news, and she deliberately took off her outer clothes to show her disgrace.
The person changing clothes was in the outer room, and the person watching her changing clothes was in the inner room. The door was locked. She actually had the nerve to say that she was seen naked. She is so stupid. 】
The system couldn't help but complain.
[I see. It’s a pity that I didn’t see the adultery scene.] 】Su Qianqian didn't realize that she was quietly relieved.
"Your Highness, we are alone here now. You should put on your clothes. How could there be no maid beside you when the princess was changing? How could she allow a man to barge in like this?"
Su Qianqian asked respectfully, completely ignoring the three words "Marquis Wuning".
"Su, are you teaching me how to do things? Marquis Wuning has defamed my innocence, I must let my brother the Crown Prince make the decision..."
"What do you want to decide?" A clear and clean voice sounded. Su Qianqian turned around and saw the prince walking out from behind the screen like a green bamboo swaying in the wind, with Madam Xiao beside him.
"Brother Crown Prince, Marquis Wuning...he actually barged in..."
"Zhaoyang, be careful with your words." The prince interrupted Princess Zhaoyang calmly, glanced at Su Qianqian, and then said in a gentle voice: "Madam Wuning Marquis came in because she was thinking of you. How can you make malicious assumptions? Why don't you thank Madam Wuning Marquis?"
"Brother Prince, Marquis Wuning..." Princess Zhaoyang pointed at the door of the inner room anxiously.
"Zhaoyang, the wife of Marquis Wuning is thinking about you. I already know that these maids are not serving well. They will be dealt with by the chief eunuch when they return to the palace."
The prince interrupted the princess again, with a warning look in his eyes.
"Madam Wuning Marquis, you are so thoughtful. Marquis Wuning was looking for you in the front yard just now, but it turns out that you are here taking care of Princess Zhaoyang." Madam Xiao walked closer to Su Qianqian and said softly.
"Marquis Wuning..."
"My Lord..." Su Qianqian and Princess Zhaoyang said at the same time, with Princess Zhaoyang looking even more incredulous.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here? My brother couldn't find you and was anxious, so he asked me to come look for you."
Qin Yuzhuo also walked in at this time and blinked hard at Su Qianqian.
