Chapter 838 What a Coincidence, King Chen Protects You
Shao Wanru's eyes slightly raised, revealing a bit of stubbornness: "Grandma, except for the courtyard where father and mother live, Mrs. Zhao can choose any of the vacant courtyards in this mansion, but not the courtyard where father lives!"
Shao Wanru said bluntly that she was not willing to give the wife any more avoidance. Since there was no way to avoid it, she did not want to avoid it anymore. That courtyard belonged to her father, mother, and the future heir apparent. The wife wanted to adopt such a method. She would never agree to the illusion that the prince who was seeking to seize the crown prince's position and create the Xingguo Duke's palace had actually decided on Shao Hua'an.
In the last life, in order to seize the throne of the heir, they killed everyone in their own house. How could the position of the heir be able to cover up this hatred!
"You..." Mrs. Zhao froze there, looking at the girl in front of her in disbelief. She was really just a soft and graceful girl. The overall feeling was very charming and charming, but that was all. The woman from the aristocratic family was also How can one judge superiority based on appearance? How could an orphan girl without a father or mother have the guts to say such a thing?
Does this mean you are trying to embarrass yourself in front of your face?
After reacting, Mrs. Zhao trembled angrily, pointed at Shao Wanru, and said sternly to Mrs. Zhao: "Mrs. Mrs., is this how the family teaches their daughter? This... what are you saying? I just promised to be good. Is this the attitude that compensates us?"
"Fifth girl, kneel down and apologize to Mrs. Zhao!" Mrs. Zhao's face darkened, her eyebrows turned cold, and she scolded sternly.
"Grandma, I don't know what went wrong. Do you want me to apologize like this?" Shao Wanru said lightly. His watery eyes swept over Zhao Xiran and saw the shock in Zhao Xiran's eyes. Obviously, she did not expect that Shao Wanru would dare to do it in front of the wife. After saying such words, his eyes darkened for a moment.
"You...why are you so disrespectful to your elders? You..." The wife was very angry, but she couldn't really hit Shao Wanru. The eldest princess would definitely not let her get what she wanted. The last plan was to let Shao Wanru She fell down to the first level of the eldest princess, and that's why she joined forces with Mrs. Zhao.
"Grandma, I'm just telling the truth. I'm afraid that Mrs. Zhao won't know about it, so I'll explain it in advance to avoid making it difficult for my grandmother when I choose an apartment and not be able to live in it!" Shao Wanru said coldly.
In one sentence, the madam wanted to vomit blood.
Mrs. Zhao looked up and down at Shao Wanru, and then a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes. Sure enough, she grew up in a small place. It seemed that she didn't even understand basic etiquette. She dared to say such things. This confidence came from the eldest princess. Already?
But even the eldest princess has no reason to keep interfering in the affairs of Duke Xingguo's palace.
"Miss Shao Wu, right? What you said is actually wrong. Your father and mother have been dead for so long. Is it possible that this yard has been empty and uninhabited?" Mrs. Zhao said coldly.
"Why not? This courtyard is not for other people to live in!" Shao Wanru raised his eyebrows. He was not under so much pressure on Mrs. Zhao. After all, Mrs. Zhao was not his official elder.
"I heard that Fifth Miss Shao was from an ordinary family. Is this the rule taught in your house in the past?" Mrs. Zhao mocked, "Sure enough, you are a petty person, but now you are the fifth Miss of Xingguo Duke's house. Don't bring your bad habits with you. When you come to Duke Xingguo’s mansion, you have forgotten your current identity!”
"Thank you Madam Madam for reminding me. I know my identity, so I want to protect the courtyard where my father and mother live. There are many empty courtyards in the mansion. If Miss Zhao is satisfied, you can use the courtyard where I live. I will leave it for now. Just pick any yard and live there!" Shao Wanru smiled, sounding like he was taking a step back.
Just to keep the last thoughts of my father and mother, I am even willing to give up my yard. The meaning of this is sad.
Mrs. Zhao's hands were shaking with anger. Shao Wanru was going to marry King Chen, and it would be two months later. At this time, she was asked to give up her previous yard to Shao Huaan as a new house. If it was really done, not only would the Xingguo Duke's Palace be He would be criticized, and even Zhao Shangshu's mansion couldn't afford it.
Shao Wanru's identity is that of the future Princess Chen. Although Mrs. Zhao doesn't think that Prince Chen really cares about Miss Shao Wu, her identity must be there. When Shao Wanru gets married, she will be of the highest rank. Even Mrs. Zhao had to bow when she saw her.
No one can afford to force her to give up the reputation of the yard.
However, Shao Wanru must not be married now. A married woman regards her husband's family as her heaven, but an unmarried woman regards her father's family as her heaven. She has no reason to resist now.
She turned her head and said nothing to Shao Wanru. She looked at the wife angrily and said, "If the attitude of Miss Shao Wu is the same in the house, it would be better not to get married. The girls in our house really don't dare to have Miss Shao Wu like this." My sister-in-law has already acted like a prince and concubine before she even walked in!"
The sarcasm of these words was a slap in the face.
No matter how much she said, Shao Wanru was not married yet, let alone actually married into the royal family.
"Grandma!" Zhao Xiran reached out and gently pulled Mrs. Zhao's arm and shook it a few times, and called out softly. It seemed that she didn't want Mrs. Zhao to accuse Shao Wanru like this.
Mrs. Zhao also looked angry. After speaking, she stood up and pulled Zhao Xiran to leave.
"Mrs. Zhao, please wait a moment!" The wife hurriedly stood up to stop her. If Mrs. Zhao really left, the marriage between the two families would be ruined. The wife was still very satisfied with this marriage.
"Fifth girl, you still haven't given me a gift to Mrs. Zhao!" As he said this, he turned to Shao Wanru and scolded.
Shao Wanru stood aside calmly, as if he didn't know that this matter was about to get serious.
When Mrs. Zhao saw the scene in front of her, her face was livid with anger, "Okay... okay, this fifth lady in the house is really nice. She is not satisfied with our Ran'er. Well, since our Ran'er can't have Shao With the approval of Miss Fifth, the future Princess Chen, we’d better go back to avoid getting into this embarrassing situation!”
"Fifth girl, why don't you kneel down!" Seeing that things had reached this point, the wife was so angry that she reached out her hand and wanted to slap Shao Wanru.
Shao Wanru took a step back and avoided Mrs. Tai's slap. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a leisurely voice coming from the door: "Is this the wrong time for me to come?"
The man's clear voice made everyone in the flower hall stunned for a moment. They all turned around and saw Chu Liuchen standing at the door. Chu Liuchen with a gentle smile on his face seemed to have really accidentally barged in. His beautiful eyes He raised his head slightly, looked at the stiff faces of everyone in the hall, and then walked in slowly.
Wearing a dark blue python robe, he reflected his extraordinary dignity, but also had a hint of sickly handsomeness. The moment he appeared, he stunned everyone in the flower hall.
Behind him, the stewards of Duke Xingguo's Mansion were circling around anxiously. It wasn't that he didn't want to stop His Highness Chen Wang. The problem was that he couldn't stop him. The lady took him to lead the way to the flower hall where she entered the mansion, and came all the way there.
"But what happened?" Chu Liuchen's handsome eyes flickered, he took a cursory look at the people in the flower hall, and walked in.
The two Madams reacted quickly and hurriedly saluted him. Although Chu Liuchen rarely appeared in front of people, they would go into the palace from time to time to accompany the Queen Mother. They had seen him several times and recognized him at a glance. his identity.
Zhao Xiran saw Chu Liuchen for the first time and looked at Chu Liuchen in surprise. This was His Royal Highness Chen who was rumored by everyone to be short-lived. However, except for his complexion and lip color, he looked a little worse. It's a little lighter, but otherwise there's no difference between it and a normal, disease-free person.
When Chu Liuchen's eyes were caught, his face immediately turned red and he hurriedly turned sideways to salute. He felt his heart beating suddenly, feeling as shy as a little daughter.
Zhao Xiran is the eldest lady in Zhao Shangshu's mansion, and there are several younger sisters and younger brothers below her. In the past, it was rare for her to lose her composure. She couldn't help but think of the words spread among the ladies of the aristocratic family. They all said that King Chen was so handsome that he could dominate the entire capital. The most outstanding man, but it is a pity that he is born with deficiencies and is extremely sick. Otherwise, if he is so noble and handsome, there will be few women who do not want to marry him.
Even I almost lost my mind just now.
Zhao Xiran almost lost his mind here, and Shao Caihuan really lost his mind here. Her veil was still hanging on her face, and the expression on her face could not be seen, but her eyes looked at Chu Liuchen almost in a daze. If she The current situation can only be for the concubine. She would rather be Chu Liuchen's concubine than the Qing County Prince.
Shao Wanru also bowed sideways and said, "I have met His Highness King Chen!"
"No need to be polite!" Chu Liuchen said casually, then stood next to Shao Wanru, stretched out his hand to support Shao Wanru, and his expression became gentler: "What's the matter? What happened just now?"
Mrs. Zhao stood up straight, and her heart skipped a beat. She was not as excited as Zhao Xiran, but was shocked. Everyone in the palace knew that His Highness Chen Wang seemed gentle, but in fact he was very ruthless. If he was provoked, he would take action. He is extremely cold-hearted, and he is also protected by the Emperor and the Queen Mother in the palace. Not to mention the ministers like them, even the masters in the palace will take a detour when they see His Highness King Chen.
I was afraid that I might accidentally offend this evil star.
And what does the current situation mean? Does King Chen really fall in love with Miss Shao Wu? Mrs. Zhao frowned, feeling that it would be better to discuss the matters discussed with Mrs. Zhao in the long term.
"Nothing, I just want to talk about the yard where my father and mother used to live!" Shao Wanru stood up straight and said softly.
"What's wrong with their yard? Is it possible that my uncle has decreed a son for you?" Chu Liuchen said slowly, with a smile on his lips, he glanced at the Madam with a half-smile, "Congratulations. Madam, after all these years, the position of the Crown Prince of Xingguo has finally been determined, and the dust has settled!"
"Your Highness is joking, how can this matter be settled casually!" The Tai Furen replied in aggrieved tone. She could force Shao Wanru in front of her just now, but she did not dare to act arrogant in front of King Chen!
"No? Well, that may be the king's misunderstanding!" Chu Liuchen said casually, turning his handsome eyes with a gleaming look, "I heard that there are handwritings left by the former prince in that courtyard, no. Do you know if Mrs. Tai can let me have a look?"
