Chapter 252 Yang Chengchen's Showoff
Chunshui was a member of the Dark Guards and was currently in the Dark Guards. She was very quick in investigating such matters. After Zhao Lingmeng had washed and dressed, she was lying in bed in her pajamas reading some miscellaneous books for a while when Chunshui came in.
"Your Highness!" Chunshui stood in front of the bed and saluted.
Zhao Lingmeng immediately put the book aside. She was still worried. She was also worried that someone would bully Zhao Houjing. She had seen various reports of school bullying in her previous life. "I found out. Tell me! What's going on?"
"The eldest young master has received another letter from that person who sent the caravan. This is the content of the letter, which I copied by hand. I found it in the eldest young master's study." Chunshui said as she handed the letter to Zhao Lingmeng.
Zhao Lingmeng took the letter and glanced through it. It mostly talked about how hard his life had been, with a small section describing how much he regretted and felt guilty for not taking Zhao Houjing with him. Most importantly, he was now seriously ill and needed three hundred taels of silver for medical treatment.
Chunshui saw that Zhao Lingmeng didn't speak for a long time after reading it, so he took the initiative to ask: "Your Highness, do you need to take care of it?"
"Is Sun Tu really sick?"
"I don't know about this. If Your Highness wants to know, I can send someone to his post to inquire. But the round trip will take at least two months."
Chunshui was also helpless. It was so far away that it was not easy to check.
"Well, let's check it out! This time, send someone over there and find someone to keep an eye on him. After a while, send a message to the government office to prevent him from causing trouble."
"Yes! I obey your command. What about the eldest young master?" Chunshui was also afraid that the eldest young master would not be able to make sense and do something stupid to make His Highness sad.
Zhao Lingmeng pondered for a moment, "Jing'er is a sentimental child, so you guys should keep an eye on him. As long as he doesn't borrow money from everywhere or sell his things, and only gives him his own money, then let him be! Some walls have to be banged against themselves."
"Yes, I will ask someone to pay attention to it, Your Highness, don't worry." Chunshui didn't want Zhao Lingmeng to be unhappy because of this matter, so she actively made the assurance.
Zhao Lingmeng nodded and motioned Chunshui to go down and rest, as she also wanted to rest.
If Zhao Lingmeng said she didn't feel uncomfortable at all, she would be lying. Perhaps what made her most uncomfortable was Zhao Houjing's words that night: "She doesn't need it, does she?"
But she didn't care that much. Children are always willful in front of their parents, and she wouldn't let such a small thing get to her head. So she lay down and fell asleep soon after.
After Yang Chengchen came out of Zhao Lingmeng's residence, he went straight back to the eldest prince's residence. When the eldest prince's wife heard that her youngest son had returned, she immediately sent someone to notify Yang Chengchen to go directly there.
As soon as he entered, he saw the person behind him holding a small box.
"Oh, Chen is going to give a gift to mother?" The eldest prince's wife was a little surprised.
Yang Chengchen had always been very smart, but he was also known for being a simpleton in the mansion, and he was very careful not to steal the limelight from his elder brother. When he heard his mother say this, he rubbed his head and said with a simple smile, "My aunt gave it to me today."
"Oh, what is that?" The eldest prince was curious when he heard that it was given to his son by Princess Funing. He immediately asked someone to bring it to him for a look.
The man holding the box was Yang Chengchen's confidant. When he heard the eldest prince say that, he didn't take it immediately. Instead, he looked up at Yang Chengchen first, and when he saw Yang Chengchen nod, he took the box and went over.
The other three people present, seeing the subtle action of the servant beside Yang Chengchen, were not angry at all, but nodded in appreciation.
The eldest prince reached out and carefully took the box. He looked at the jade pendant inside and gasped. Yang Chengchen and the eldest prince's wife saw this and immediately came over. They were also shocked when they saw the jade pendant inside the box.
"The princess wouldn't give all the fine jade pendants in the palace to you, kid! This is the nth piece." The eldest prince's wife was also very envious. There was no jade pendant of this quality even in her dowry.
"The third piece!" Yang Chengchen boasted proudly, and stretched out three fingers and waved them in front of the three people.
Yang Chengchen was worried that his silly brother would become a thorn in the side of other people's houses: "The princess did this, won't Zhao Houjing and the others be jealous?"
Yang Chengchen was showing off, but he didn't want his family to worry: "Don't worry! Auntie didn't give it to me alone, everyone has it, so I have it too."
The eldest prince was very surprised to hear his son say this. Princess Funing treated such a precious jade pendant as common goods, selling several pieces at a time. "The princess has so many good things?"
Yang Chengchen gave the eldest prince a look that asked him if he was stupid. "It was a gift from my grandfather! Father, look at that small character. It was made inside."
The eldest prince looked carefully and saw the words "internal creation". He thought about his treatment and then about the treatment of Princess Funing: "Is it possible that Funing is my father's biological daughter, but was raised in the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion?"
"What is Your Highness talking about?" The eldest prince's wife gave the envious eldest prince a reproachful look.
"That's right, my aunt is not that kind of person!" Yang Chengchen immediately agreed with his mother.
Yang Chengchen looked at the jade pendant thoughtfully, "Brother, do you think my aunt needs an apprentice? I'm willing to do that." They were already the juniors of Princess Funing, so it wouldn't matter if they had a master!
"Hahaha, Auntie said I'm her last disciple." Speaking of this, Yang Chengchen was so happy! Although he didn't know what his aunt did, he felt that she was very powerful, more powerful than anyone he had ever met. She knew a lot of things that others didn't know.
"Alas," Yang Chengchen could only sigh in agreement. But he also knew that this was his brother's chance, and he was genuinely happy for him.
"Alright, take it away quickly and put it away, otherwise your father's eyes will be glued to it." The eldest prince's wife didn't want her son's things to be given to the eldest prince! Who knows which true love in the backyard will get the advantage by then.
The eldest prince had no intention of taking his son's things, but he still looked at the eldest prince's wife pitifully: "Princess, I only have one piece, and my son has three."
"If I have it in my dowry, I will definitely find it and give it to you," the eldest prince's wife said perfunctorily, but she was thinking in her heart that even if she had it, she would not give it to you, otherwise who knows who would get the benefit!
Yang Chengchen took a look at the battle situation, immediately reached out to take the box, saluted and said: "Father, Mother, I have finished dinner and will go to rest first. You can eat slowly." Then he immediately slipped away with his men.
The eldest prince just laughed and complained, "This kid is like a miser now, running very fast." After that, he ate by himself.
Yang Chengchen was showing off again and was in a good mood. He even slept better at night.
