Chapter 222 The couple quarreled
When Chen Jingyan returned home, he naturally missed lunch.
Yun Qiao was about to take a nap when she heard the servant say that the Marquis had returned.
Only then did she stand up.
Also, ask the maid to prepare some food. I don’t know whether the Marquis has eaten it or not, so prepare it first.
After returning to the house, Chen Jingyan first drank a cup of tea.
Yun Qiao sat in front of him without saying much.
"You don't want to ask me about my situation in the palace?"
Yun Qiao said, "I don't think it's a good idea. Otherwise, the Marquis's expression wouldn't be so bad."
Chen Jingyan smiled and said, "You have a good eye. You can see this."
He waved, and Yun Qiao walked up to him and poured him another cup of tea.
"It's not hard to see."
"Why are you still alienated from me?"
Chen Jingyan chuckled, and Yun Qiao also smiled slightly, but it was a very faint smile.
"How can I be estranged from the Marquis? It's just that we haven't seen each other for a long time, and I'm still a little uncomfortable seeing each other for the first time."
Yun Qiao had a lot of curse words in her mind, but she didn't want to say them. She was afraid that if she said too much, she would accidentally offend Chen Jingyan and get killed by him.
I can only serve him well.
Chen Jingyan didn't notice Yun Qiao's psychological change.
He was talking to himself, saying that he wouldn't be staying in Kyoto for long this time, and asked Yun Qiao if she was willing to go to Mobei with him...
"Can I go to Mobei? It seems that His Majesty doesn't want me to go to Mobei with the Marquis."
Yun Qiao said this first.
Chen Jingyan said, "If you want to go, I have a way to take you there."
"The key question is whether you are willing to go to Mobei with me."
Seeing Yun Qiao's attitude towards him, Chen Jingyan was thinking in his heart, this time when he came back, his wife's attitude towards him was very strange. Could it be that she had another man outside?
Yun Qiao was too lazy to read what Chen Jingyan was thinking.
Yun Qiao said calmly, "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that the children are too young. If I take them with me to Mobei with the Marquis, I'm worried they won't be able to withstand the harsh environment there."
"Three years old is not young anymore..." Chen Jingyan said.
"Follow my arrangements and follow me to Mobei this time."
"As for the matters in the Marquis' Mansion, I will make other arrangements."
Chen Jingyan made up his mind immediately.
This made Yun Qiao unhappy. "Since the Marquis has already made all the arrangements, why do you still ask me if I'm willing? No matter what I think, it doesn't matter to you, right?"
"Mrs. Qiao..."
Chen Jingyan wanted to say more, but Yun Qiao was angry at the moment.
I simply ignored it and turned to walk out.
"Yun Qiao, stop right there. Before we got married, you told me that if we ever have a conflict in the future, we'd sit down and talk it out. Is your attitude now that of a good conversation?"
Yun Qiao heard that he was still angry.
Of course she wanted to vent, but this was ancient times after all, and her damn princess status was given to her by him.
To be honest, she really didn't want it.
"Chen Jingyan, if it weren't for my three children, I really wouldn't want this damn princess identity."
She flicked her sleeves and left.
Chen Jingyan stood there in a daze.
It seems that even though he gave her a noble status, she still despised it.
"Yun Qiao, stop right there..."
Yun Qiao naturally didn't stop when Chen Jingyan told her to. She turned around and ran even faster. Not wanting to pay attention to Chen Jingyan was the main reason. More importantly, she was afraid that Chen Jingyan would touch her. In ancient times, there were countless cases of domestic violence against men.
She cherishes her life.
Yun Qiao's running away made Chen Jingyan even angrier.
Yun Qiao left the East Courtyard and immediately called the maid to prepare the carriage.
It would be difficult to walk fast if she took the children with her, so she asked Xiaotao to take good care of the three children and took Qiuchan to the princess's mansion.
Chen Jingyan was very angry.
He never expected that Yun Qiao could run so fast.
"In reply to the Marquis, His Highness has now returned to the Princess's residence."
"After all, she is the Princess, Lord. You shouldn't have spoken to her in such anger. Her Highness has been busy during this period. She has been in the ancestral home, observing austere mourning for three months. Several clan leaders at the ancestral home have made things difficult for Her Highness, but She has endured it for your sake."
"A flood occurred at our ancestral home years ago, destroying the Chen family's ancestral tomb. Your Highness handled this matter with all his heart and soul."
Wang Xiaodong spoke one by one in front of Chen Jingyan.
Under normal circumstances, Chen Jingyan would be happy to hear this, mostly out of concern for Yun Qiao.
But he was angry at the moment.
He slammed the table and angrily said, "Isn't this what she should have done? Wang Xiaodong, you are my man. Since when did you all become Yun Qiao's people and speak for her?"
Wang Xiaodong fell to his knees.
"I dare not. I have always been the Marquis's servant."
"Get out of here."
Wang Xiaodong also got up quickly and left without any hesitation.
This made Chen Jingyan even more furious, and he wanted to smash things.
Yun Qiao finally found some peace in the princess's mansion.
She sat in the house, guarding the stove. There were a few servants in the princess's mansion, who were only responsible for cleaning the mansion. When Yun Qiao came, they were also busy preparing food.
Qiu Chan put the tea away and saw that the princess didn't say anything, so she sat on the stool quietly.
"Your Highness, if you have something on your mind, please speak it out. Don't keep it in your heart. Seeing you like this, I am worried."
"Don't worry."
"Qiu Chan, send someone to tell the Marquis' Mansion that I will be staying at the Princess' Mansion tonight and will not be going back. Tell the children to go to bed early and not to worry about me."
She didn't want to see Chen Jingyan.
"I understand."
"Your Highness, if the Marquis has done anything to make you unhappy, please feel relieved. After all, you are the Marquis's wife, and your status is noble. Anyone who comes in later will also have to respect you as Madam."
"As for the Marquis, you saw it clearly before, so why are you confused now?"
What Qiu Chan said makes sense.
Why is she so confused now? It’s because she has inappropriate feelings for Chen Jingyan.
If she were a little more indifferent, she wouldn't be looking so sad now.
"You're right."
"But I need to figure it out on my own."
Qiu Chan nodded and stepped out.
Yun Qiao was lighting the stove, making tea, and thinking about everything...
Including her three children.
She had to do it for them and couldn't go against Chen Jingyan.
"Qiuchan, let's go back and prepare the carriage."
"Yes, Princess."
Yun Qiao came back, but Chen Jingyan was out. Feeling upset, he went to find someone to drink with. Lord Zhao had time, so he was also called over.
However, Pang Zheng left halfway, leaving only Chen Jingyan and Zhao Xuan.
"I put so much effort into coming back, but instead of being friendly to me, she even put on a sullen face in front of me."
"Tell me, is it her fault?"
Zhao Xuan was also a little drunk.
"My Lord, you've already found a second wife outside, why are you still angry? If you can't get a good one here, just go somewhere else. You don't lack women anyway..."
"It's normal for Princess Huayang to be angry. After you came back, you didn't even offer an explanation. After all, she's a princess, right?"
Chen Jingyan picked up the wine glass and drank it.
"That's right. After all, she's a princess. I should explain myself."
"Master Zhao, let's stop here. You can go back first. I also need to go to the princess's mansion to pick up my own princess."
Chen Jingyan stood up, a little unsteadily.
He drank a little too much, but not completely drunk. He insisted on taking a carriage to the princess's mansion, but Wang Xiaodong rushed over and told him that Her Royal Highness the Princess had already gone back.
The food is ready and we are waiting for the Marquis to come back.
Chen Jingyan was almost sober now.
By the time the Marquis returned to the mansion, he was almost sober.
Yun Qiao and the others were all asleep, but they woke up when they heard Chen Jingyan's footsteps.
"The Marquis is back. Is he drunk?"
"Lily, go to the kitchen and make some hangover soup for the Marquis."
"Mrs. Qiao." After Chen Jingyan stepped over the threshold, he walked towards Yun Qiao. Yun Qiao naturally stepped forward and gently supported him. "Why did the Marquis drink so much today? Look, he can hardly walk steadily."
Chen Jingyan: "It's all because of you, a heartless person."
"I just forgot to explain it to you, and you got angry. Then you ran away and said some nonsense."
She had no idea how much blood was on his hands in order to give Yun Qiao the identity of a princess.
But he couldn't tell Yun Qiao these words, because she would definitely be scared if she knew.
