Chapter 154 Murderous Intention
Qinglu accompanied Lu Youxi to the treasury to get a few things. Seeing that he was in a low mood, she accompanied him a little further.
On the way, he took the opportunity to explain: "The Crown Prince's Consort really wants to help you find this marriage, but the girl from the Han family is not appreciative. Don't take it to heart."
Lu Youxi naturally did not take this matter to heart. As a member of the Lu family and a servant of the royal palace, he had no say in his marriage. The fact that the Crown Prince's wife did not use her power to pressure him made him grateful.
"Sister Qinglu is overthinking."
He smiled sincerely and said, "The Crown Prince's Consort is kind and respectful to everyone. Even if she wanted to arrange a marriage for me, she asked about my wishes first. What complaints do I have?"
Qinglu's eyes flickered as she asked him, "Why did this servant seem so unhappy to me, young master?"
"I'm not unhappy."
Lu Youxi explained, "The mountain is covered in heavy snow right now. I'm afraid the snow won't stop for a while, and I'm worried that it will delay my return trip."
"Besides, the heavy snow has been falling for more than half a month, which will affect both land and water transportation. I am afraid that the money, grain and cloth from the various royal estates in Liyang City will be difficult to transport to the capital smoothly. I am thinking about whether to inform the prince about this, but I am worried that I will be accused of alarmism."
Qinglu listened to this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was humiliated by Han Nian, but his mind was still on the official business of the palace. What a weird person.
"If you don't feel comfortable telling the prince, you can report this to the Crown Prince's Consort first."
Qinglu reminded, "Although the Crown Prince's Consort has no right to interfere in state affairs, she has to take care of the food and drink of the people in the mansion when she is in charge of the inner house. You should discuss it with the Crown Prince's Consort. If she thinks this matter is of great importance, she will make a decision early. Even the prince will listen to her."
"That's a good idea."
Lu Youxi suddenly realized: "The Crown Prince's Consort is highly regarded by the Prince and Princess, so her words are naturally more effective than mine."
Having made up their minds, the two were about to turn back, but when they turned their heads inadvertently, they saw Xu Jinzhou sneaking to the other side, as if he was intentionally avoiding them.
"Xu Changshi, where are you going?" Qinglu shouted at him.
"Nothing, nothing."
Xu Jinzhou smiled at the two of them, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The two were puzzled, and Han You came out in a panic: "Master Youxi, Miss Qinglu, have you seen Miss Nian Nian?"
"Miss Nian Nian is missing again?" Qinglu's face was full of helplessness.
Han You was also a little distressed: "When Miss Huai Xi and I went to get some charcoal, we heard that she had gone out again. The prince specifically told me to take good care of her."
Lu Youxi stared at the direction where Xu Jinzhou left, lost in thought: "It seems that Xu Changshi went to Muxiangzhai. He came back from outside the mansion. Could it be that he met Miss Nian Nian?"
"It's not a big deal for him to meet Miss Nian Nian, so why is he hiding from us, as if he is deliberately avoiding us?" Qinglu was puzzled.
Lu Youxi pondered, and the more he thought about it, the worse it felt: "Could something have happened to Miss Nian Nian?"
"This person has always had bad intentions, that's for sure."
Qinglu said, "Sir, let's go to Muxiangzhai and ask."
Lu Youxi stopped her: "If he really has ulterior motives, it would be useless for you and me to rush to Muxiangzhai."
"Miss Hanyou, Sister Qinglu and I will go report to the Crown Prince's Consort. You should hurry to Muxiangzhai to see what happened."
Lu Youxi ordered: "If you can't stop the prince, go and report to the prince's wife immediately."
After saying this, he hurried to Chuxian Palace with Qinglu.
Fu Guiyun returned to the palace, sat down and drank a cup of hot tea. Shu Yan saw that she was a little unhappy, so he leaned against her back and carefully massaged her shoulders and neck.
"Anyway, the Crown Prince's Consort didn't treat her badly. She did everything she promised the Crown Prince, hired a nanny, and arranged a marriage. Not to mention the Crown Prince, even the prince and the subjects of Liyang City can only think that the Crown Prince's Consort has good intentions."
Shu Yan comforted him kindly, "You don't need to get angry over this kind of person anymore."
"You little bitch, have you guessed my thoughts again?"
Fu Guiyun rolled his eyes at her in annoyance.
I would not be angry with Han Nian, I just sympathize with Han's mother.
Her husband passed away only a few years ago, and she has experienced the death of her loved one, but now her daughter is still a good-for-nothing. I heard that the prince has taken good care of Han's mother, but she is reluctant to buy her even a pair of winter clothes. I guess she has put all her thoughts on Han Nian.
As a parent, she could understand such painstaking efforts.
"Shuyan, when you have some free time in the next two days, ask Cuiluo to go to the warehouse to get two ready-made clothes and send them to the Han family. Then ask Doctor Liu to prescribe some nourishing and conditioning herbs, and buy some New Year's goods and send them together."
Fu Guiyun warned, "Please tell her a few more words for me. The happiness of children depends on themselves. Tell her to take care of herself."
"We only have a few decades to live, so why should we put ourselves in a difficult position and only care about fulfilling others' wishes?"
"I have noted it all down."
Shu Yan smiled and joked: "Don't you think about others all the time, Crown Prince's Consort?"
Knowing what Shuyan mentioned, Fu Guiyun smiled and said nothing.
I'm not the one who thinks about others all the time. She cares about those little things, but I don't mind at all and I don't want to mind.
If you look at love lightly, it will be just like a passing cloud.
The master and servant were playing together when Lu Youxi and Qinglu walked in.
After the two reported the matter truthfully, Fu Guiyun immediately frowned.
Shu Yan's eyes were full of confusion: "What kind of thing is it that Xu Changshi only dared to tell the prince, but was afraid that the prince's wife would know?"
"I guess that girl Nian Nian was bullied outside."
Fu Guiyun snorted disdainfully: "Xu Jinzhou seems to be loyal to the palace, but in fact he is always looking for ways to make the prince make mistakes, so as to give the emperor a handle to settle accounts with the palace. In this huge Liyang City, there is only one place that dares to bully that girl and instigate the prince."
After thinking for a moment, she uttered a few words calmly: "The Duke of Chang's Mansion."
"The prince of Changguo has always been at odds with our prince. If he dares to bully Miss Nian Nian, I'm afraid something serious will happen."
Lu Youxi raised an eyebrow: "If Xu Changshi continues to instigate, the prince might even kill that person in a rage."
Cheng Kui also said: "I heard that the reason why the current queen was crowned queen is because the Liu family dared to guard Liyang City for the emperor. That Liu Shizi relied on being the queen's cousin and never took the Liyang Palace seriously."
"But according to our prince's temper, let alone the Liu family, even the emperor doesn't care. He wishes that every tree planted in the Duke of Chang's Mansion would have the surname Lu. If Prince Liu really bullied Miss Nian Nian, he will probably die today."
Fu Guiyun felt that things were not looking good the more he listened, so he immediately ordered, "Hurry and prepare the carriage."
Then, the group hurried out the door.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the inner court, I saw Han You coming towards me: "Crown Princess, it's bad. Prince Liu of the Duke of Changguo's Mansion has taken Miss Nian Nian to Chunxiang Tower. The prince has already rushed over."
"Don't tell anyone about it."
Fu Guiyun glared at her and said, "It's just a trip to Chunxianglou, why are you making such a fuss?"
She said so, but her heart was as clear as a mirror. Chunxianglou was not an ordinary restaurant. Although it was not like a brothel, it was a place where only young men from wealthy families often went for entertainment.
The restaurant is full of private rooms.
