Chapter 322 Du Zhihuan Wants to Meet Prince Xiao
Xiao Fei pursed his lips when he heard this. The prince seemed to be hoping that the engagement would be cancelled.
"The engagement definitely counts!"
"Pah!" Mu Jingxing casually smashed the paper ball at Xiao Fei's forehead. "If you gasp for air when talking again, I'll pull out your tongue."
Xiao Fei smiled and begged for mercy. "No, I won't dare to do it again. Just now, when I was coming back from arresting someone outside, I ran into Master Jiang and hurried back to have lunch. His attendant told me that Du Zhihuan had begged Miss Song to leave the Du family in order to save her biological mother's life. They signed a document guaranteeing that Miss Song would go to the Song Mansion, but the Marquis's wife ran over to stop her from saving Miss Song. In fact, she didn't want Du Zhihuan to leave. Miss Song must have returned to the Jiang family out of disappointment."
Mu Jingxing frowned, "Where is Du Zhihuan now?"
"She's said to be at the Song residence. I'm not sure if she's been taken back to the Du family yet, but she probably won't be going back. I have the impression that she's the most sensible person. Oh, by the way, they said Madam Du has also moved to the Jiang family!"
The last sentence dispelled Mu Jing's idea of going to the palace to report to Du Henian.
Miss Song might be angry. If she reports her father and affects the reputation of the Marquis' Mansion, will Miss Song blame him?
"Does my cousin know?"
"Uh... I don't know. Oh, by the way, Madam Jiang will regain her sight in a few days." Xiao Fei counted on his fingers, "Should we prepare gifts in advance? We can go to her house to congratulate her and then see Miss Song."
Mu Jingxing: "I will make arrangements. Hurry and bring him back from prison!"
Xiao Chengqian finished the tasks assigned by the emperor after dark, and was called to the main courtyard as soon as he returned to the mansion.
"Father, Queen Mother."
After Xiao Chengqian finished the greetings, he sat down and started eating his meal with big mouthfuls and elegance.
"Eat slowly, don't be impatient."
Lin Yutang looked at Xiao Chengqian's tired face and felt a little distressed.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor doesn't care about his son. He's not even eighteen yet, and is in the period of growth. What if he gets too tired? Why doesn't he make more arrangements for Prince Mu?"
"My beloved, my son is of royal blood, and Prince Mu is of the Mu family blood. How can they be the same?"
"Father, Mother, my cousin has a tough time. He's still trying a case in the yamen. The emperor has entrusted me with important matters of state. He's paving the way for me."
Xiao Hongyi joked when he heard this, "Your grandparents will be back soon, and the emperor is also watching your performance, so you must perform well."
"Yes, father, I will behave well."
Xiao Hongyi asked again, "When will Song Yu come to the palace for a follow-up examination?"
Xiao Chengqian: "I don't know yet. I'll arrange someone... No, I'll go ask Sister Yu myself, and then I'll take her into the palace."
The next morning, Xiao Chengqian went to the Du Mansion and waited.
When Xiao Chengqian arrived, the gate of the Du Mansion was still not open.
Half a minute later, the doorman Du Ping opened the side door and saw Xiao Chengqian waiting at the door. He was so scared that his face turned pale.
"Meet the prince."
"No need to be polite."
Xiao Chengqian didn't go in but waited beside the carriage.
Doorman Du Ping was very nervous. What should he do?
The eldest and second daughters both ran away from home.
Prince Xiao was waiting at the door, but no one showed up.
Is he going to say it?
Forget it, just keep silent. He can't say too much about the master's affairs.
The third young master will come out to pick someone up from the Jiang residence in a while.
Let the Third Young Master say it himself.
A quarter of an hour later, Du Zhixu came out.
"Third brother, you're going to the shop so early?"
Du Zhixu looked flustered for a moment, but quickly calmed down. After finishing the greetings, he said, "My sister stayed at the Jiang residence last night. I'm going there now to pick her up for school."
"Then let's go together."
The two rushed to Jiang's house, and Song Yu and her two sisters happened to be walking out of the house.
"Sister Yu." Xiao Chengqian stepped forward with a smile, "I'll pick you up from school."
Song Yu glanced at Du Zhixu's face and knew that Xiao Chengqian still knew nothing.
"Brother Prince, why are you here today?"
Xiao Chengqian said truthfully, "I'm not busy today. I'll go to the yamen later. Hurry up and get in the carriage. Don't be late."
Xiao Chengqian helped Song Yu and her two sisters get on the carriage. He turned around and found that Du Zhixu's face looked strange.
"What's wrong? Why didn't you say hello to Sister Yu? She didn't pay any attention to you either. Did something unpleasant happen?"
"Prince, please follow me first. My sisters have already walked far away."
Not long after the group left, Nanny Niu came to the Jiang Mansion with gifts.
"Madam, this is what my wife asked me to bring to you for your health."
"No, give them all to Shushu."
Seeing that Madam Jiang had a patch covering her eyes, Nanny Niu asked, "Madam, is your eye disease almost healed?"
Madam Jiang smiled and said, "It will be soon. It will be a few days. My sister Yu said that I will be able to see it the day the medicine patch is removed."
Nanny Niu felt relieved, knowing that there was still time for Madam to take her back.
"Then congratulations in advance, old lady. I will go to see my wife right away."
"Go ahead."
"Madam Gui, my mother-in-law is really good to Shushu."
What's good about it?
It's so bad!
If the old lady saw the young master's face, she would know whether it was good or not.
Aunt Gui said with a forced smile, "Yes, yes, Madam Cheng is indeed quite good."
After not seeing each other for many days, Nanny Niu noticed that Jiang Yunshu's belly seemed to have grown bigger.
Could it be twins again?
Seeing that she was distracted, Jiang Yunshu said impatiently, "Niu Mama."
Niu Mama came to her senses upon hearing the voice. "Madam, the old lady said that everything is ready at home. Clothes, shoes and socks are all prepared for the young master from one to three years old. Even diapers are made for hundreds. The old lady asked when she will come to take you back home?"
Jiang Yunshu: "Go back and tell mother that she will regain her sight in a few days. I will send someone back to inform her and ask her to prepare a larger and more stable carriage and a thicker couch. My belly is so big that I can't stand the tossing and turning. Sigh, I think it's better for me to give birth at my mother's house."
Nanny Niu hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Madam. I'll come pick you up when the time comes and make sure you go back comfortably."
Jiang Yunshu pursed his lips, "...My stomach is moving again, go back if you're okay."
"Yes, ma'am."
Yanzhi said, "Madam, you are going back to accompany me to play the role of a premature baby. Where can we get a fake baby?"
"No need. When the time comes, pretend to be in labor. The mistress must have given birth prematurely in the dark room behind Cheng Xiao's study. Then you can just hold her down for me, along with the mistress's child."
"Madam, how do you plan to place the child?"
Jiang Yunshu thought of Song Yu's precognitive dream, in which her son was supposed to be killed on the day of birth.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yunshu felt hatred growing in his heart, "He will live the same life as Shu Ge'er has lived these years!"
Arriving at the Chaofeng Palace Academy, Xiao Chengqian escorted Song Yu down. "Sister Yu, when I went into the palace yesterday, I saw that the little prince's complexion hadn't changed much. When will you go to check on him again?"
"The day after tomorrow."
Xiao Chengqian said: "I will come to pick you up the day after tomorrow morning."
Song Yu glanced at Du Zhixu and said, "Come to the Jiang Mansion to pick me up. I won't go back to the Du family anymore."
Xiao Chengqian was stunned. "Ah? Why? Did Zhixu bully you? Don't worry, I'll take care of him in a moment."
Song Yu smiled and led Cheng Qingmeng and Jiang Shiyun into Chaofeng Palace Academy.
"What's going on? Why isn't Sister Yu going back to the Du family?"
Du Zhixu didn't have the nerve to say that he was running away from his own sister because he was protecting Huanhuan.
"Ask Master Xiao Jiang, I can't tell you."
Du Zhixu ran away quickly after saying this.
"Miss, the carriage that just left was that of Prince Xiao."
Du Zhihuan leaned over and took a look. "Yan'er, stay away from people, especially Song Yu's men. Make sure there are no suspicious people following you. Then go find Master Xiao. I want to see him."
