Chapter 399: Finally Back
Looking at the word "Jiang" on the carriage, Tianji could immediately guess that this person was probably the daughter of the Jiang family who had just arrived in Tiandu.
No wonder the master got into the carriage at the first opportunity!
Thinking of this, Tianji nodded.
"Okay, wait a moment, young lady. I'll ask someone to help you right away."
Having said that, he immediately ordered the people behind him to help the carriage down.
When the woman saw the carriage being lifted up, she couldn't help but look towards Tianji.
At this time, neither Chen Hechuan nor Tianji got off the carriage.
The woman couldn't help but frown slightly, thought for a moment, and then slowly walked forward.
"Sir, today my daughter went to burn incense and unexpectedly encountered such an accident. It is thanks to your generosity that I was saved. I wonder where you live? When I return, I will definitely come to thank you in person."
Gu Jingchun in the carriage couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked at Chen Hechuan with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
However, Shen Hechuan held him in his arms in a flattering manner, without any intention of replying.
Helplessly, Tianji spoke here.
"Don't worry, girl. It's just a matter of convenience."
When the woman heard this, her expression paused before she continued speaking.
"Sir, you are too modest. To be honest, I am Jiang..."
The woman hadn't finished her words when she was suddenly interrupted by Shen Hechuan.
"Girl, there's no need to feel grateful, because I'm not helping you because of you.
It's because your carriage was blocking the road, so I asked people for help.
Now that your carriage has been lifted up, please leave as soon as possible so as not to hinder my journey."
After Chen Hechuan finished speaking, no matter how thick-skinned the woman was, she felt embarrassed now. Her face turned pale and blue, and she didn't know how to react at all.
I was stunned for a moment.
When Tianji saw her like this, he couldn't help but give another instruction to the person next to the carriage.
Seeing this, the man drove the carriage to the side.
Tianji then nodded to the girl and drove away in the carriage.
The woman looked at Chen Hechuan's carriage in disbelief as it slowly drove away in front of her, and then she chuckled in disbelief.
The maid Xiaoya behind him couldn't help but yell angrily.
"He...they...why are they like this..."
Jiang Mingwan looked at the carriage that had gone far away, and spoke slowly after a while.
"It seems that my grandfather was right. My cousin, the emperor, is not a simple man. It will take more than the usual methods to take him down."
"Let's go back and discuss it again."
As they spoke, the two of them got into the carriage.
At this moment in the carriage, Gu Jingchun did not say a single word about this farce.
Of course, as smart as she is, she has already guessed that this matter may not be that simple.
After all, the roads here are flat. Even if you go to burn incense, there is no slope on this road. How could the carriage lose control and fall down?
And it was such a coincidence that he didn't fall earlier or later, but just happened to fall in front of Chen Hechuan's carriage.
Moreover, Gu Jingchun had already guessed that the word "Jiang" she just said must be the Jiang family, Shen Hechuan's maternal family.
Since the daughter of the Jiang family went out to burn incense, why would she only have a maid with her?
It can be seen that this woman was targeting Chen Hechuan from the very beginning.
I just don't know if Chen Hechuan guessed all this from the beginning.
So, from then on, Gu Jingchun remained silent and never spoke a word.
Chen Hechuan had been quietly watching her expression, and when he saw that she had remained silent and hadn't spoken, he couldn't help but speak first.
"It seems that the first thing we have to do when we return to the palace is to clean it up inside and out and deal with all those who are not careful with their words."
Gu Jingchun raised his eyebrows.
"Your Majesty, what does this mean? Why don't I understand?"
Chen Hechuan immediately gave a startled sound.
Now that the words "Your Majesty" have come out, I'm afraid things are not going well!
So, Shen Hechuan hurried to explain.
"That woman just now, I suspect she is the daughter of the Jiang family.
We were just about to reach Tiandu when she suddenly showed up here for no apparent reason. And luckily, the carriage broke down. This must be something more serious than that."
"I guess my grandfather must have received some news long ago and sent someone to guard here."
"So, I say, the people in this palace must be investigated, and they must be investigated thoroughly. We must purge all those who are betraying the palace."
Gu Jingchun couldn't help but snort coldly.
Fortunately, I am not stupid and I have guessed everything.
However, Gu Jingchun still felt a little angry. He couldn't help but snort coldly, rolled his eyes at him, and didn't say anything else.
This glance made Shen Hechuan a little confused.
"Why are you glaring at me? I've already told you everything clearly. Why are you still glaring at me?"
Gu Jingchun ignored him.
When she saw the gate of Tiandu City from afar, she felt as if she was in another world.
At this time, the carriage stopped again.
Tianji's voice also came over.
"Master, Miss Gu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here to pick you up personally."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingchun was immediately delighted. Without caring about anything else, he hurriedly got off the carriage and rushed towards Gu Jinxi.
"Xi'er——"
Gu Jinxi came out with Luo Ziqian and Princess Rongyang at this moment. When she saw Gu Jingchun, she didn't care about anything else and immediately rushed towards Gu Jingchun.
"Mother—"
Gu Jinxi rushed into Gu Jingchun's arms and hugged her tightly.
Feeling the warmth from Gu Jingchun's body, her nose felt sore and tears started to fall.
"Mother, you are finally back."
"Mother, Xier thought she would never see you again!"
"Mom, Xier has been very well behaved during this period!
Not only did he handle state affairs with Grandmother, but he never ate candy secretly or read a storybook. He even caught a bad guy himself and was waiting for you to come back——"
When Gu Jingchun heard Gu Jinxi's choked voice and felt the tenderness on his body, his heart completely melted. His nose felt sore and tears began to fall.
"Okay, okay, Xier, don't cry, isn't mother back?"
"Don't worry, mother and Xier are still here. No matter how far we go, we will come back. We will never abandon Xier."
Gu Jinxi nodded, then raised her head to look at Gu Jingchun. Her little face was covered with traces of tears, and her nose and eyes were red.
"Mother, in the future, Xier will be obedient and will study state affairs well. She will never hold you back and will ensure that you have no worries. I only hope that you will never leave Xier's side again."
