Marrying a powerful eunuch three times

Chapter 49: Encountering Shangqi at Chengwang Mansion

Prince Cheng pricked up his ears and said, "Show it up quickly."

A picture of pine and longevity.

Mushan paints as he pleases and never paints those celebrating birthdays.

King Cheng wanted to take it away.

Shang Yan picked up the wine glass and took a sip, his gaze lingering on Su Rutang's face for a moment.

Long Yu also came with Princess Anping.

Hearing this, his eyes rolled around, "Uncle Cheng Wang, the pine longevity painting is going to be auctioned."

Prince Cheng laughed it off without really caring.

Let it be auctioned, and he will buy it back.

The following time was spent introducing the calligraphy and paintings or objects brought by other ladies.

Maybe the cold I caught a few days ago hasn’t healed yet.

Su Rutang felt uncomfortable in his stomach, so he got up and walked to the bathroom outside the hall.

Chunxi followed.

Halfway through the walk, Su Rutang whispered:

"Chunxi, I'm afraid my period has come. Go get the menstrual belt from the carriage."

"Yes."

After Chunxi left.

Su Rutang stood there looking at the crabapple blossoms.

Sudden.

A little guy in a brocade robe emerged from the green bushes in front.

He looks no more than five or six years old.

There was a little tiger mask on his face, revealing a pair of bright eyes.

The little guy is holding a slingshot in his hand.

He tilted his head and looked at Su Rutang.

"who are you?"

The little guy's voice sounded a little strange, lacking the crispness of a child, and it sounded as if his throat was smoked by fireworks.

Su Rutang's heart was beating so fast.

The inexplicable panic and palpitations made her squat down involuntarily.

The little guy was shocked.

The little face enlarged in front of Su Rutang, and a hand touched her forehead.

"Don't even think about harassing me. I'm the son of the commander of the Imperial Guard. My father loves killing people, and when he sees you bullying him, he won't be polite to you."

He is Shang Yan's adopted son.

Su Rutang looked at the little guy's cute tiger mask and slowly said, "Why are you wearing the mask?"

“I have a scar on my face.”

The little guy's voice became a little colder, and his eyes dimmed.

"sorry."

"It's okay, I forgive you." The little guy hung his head, "And I forgive you for stepping on my pet to death."

pet?

Trampled to death?

Su Rutang hurriedly stood up with the help of the crabapple tree next to him, and searched for a long time before he saw a cockroach.

She stepped on him in the mud.

There is no way I can live again.

"This... is your pet?"

The little guy's eyes curved, "Yes. I call it Xiaoqiang, and it's the pet I just adopted."

I wanted to give him one as compensation, but this pet is too strange.

"Then I'll give you another pet as compensation?"

"Xiao Qiang, just rest assured and go to reincarnation." The little guy kicked the mud to cover the cockroach's body.

After a while, the two sat on the rock next to each other and started chatting.

Su Rutang knew that the little guy's name was Shangqi, and he lived with his nanny on weekdays.

This name made Su Rutang feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Why is it called this name?"

"Daddy said he was hated by others, and I was abandoned by my mother. We, father and son, are disliked by the world, and we don't need to like the world. We just need to do what we want."

Shangqi was very cold, and he didn't know why he had to talk so much to Su Rutang.

After thinking about it, I realized that I haven’t spoken so much since the Spring Festival this year.

Hey……

My mouth is so tired.

Shangqi held his chin with his hands and said nothing. He did not say a word when Su Rutang spoke.

"what happened?"

He pointed at his mouth and said, "I don't talk as much as I did today in a year. My mouth is so tired."

After he finished speaking, he leaned smoothly on Su Rutang's legs.

Su Rutang gently stroked his hair and cold mask.

There are not as many words as today in a whole year. You can see what kind of life this child has been living with Shang Yan, that cold-hearted and cold-blooded man?

Shangqi fell asleep.

When Chunxi came over, he saw Su Rutang sitting on a rock holding the little one in his arms, in a daze.

Chunxi: “…”

"Second Grandma."

Su Rutang waved his hands to prevent Chunxi from making any sound.

Another cup of tea passed.

Shangqi, who was sleeping, finally opened his eyes.

He left Su Rutang's arms in an instant, his eyes cold and without hesitation. After a few breaths, he clasped his hands together and saluted.

"Thank you, Mrs. Zhou."

Returned to his cool and cool look.

Su Rutang only felt an emptiness in his arms, and his brows were tinged with loss.

"Young master, there is no need to be so polite. I also have a son and a daughter who are about your age, but..." Her nose felt sore and she stopped talking.

Shangqi looked up in surprise.

Meeting Su Rutang's desperate eyes, he couldn't help but stretch out his little hand and hold her fingers. "Don't cry, I didn't cry even when my mother abandoned me."

Chunxi thought to himself that your comfort was really heartbreaking.

A maid came running down the path.

"Young Master. Was it you who beat the dog in Prince Cheng's Mansion to death?" The nanny bent her waist, her face full of displeasure.

Shangqi's expression changed and he returned to his cold and distant look.

"No."

The nanny took a look at Su Rutang, and seeing that she didn't have any valuable jewelry on her head, she simply bowed and did a half-bow.

"Young Master, it is not better to be without mistakes, but to correct them." The old nanny was humble, but her voice was full of authority. "If you admit your mistakes, I can also plead for you in front of the adults."

"It was you who was teasing the puppy just now, and you told it that you wanted to kill it and eat its meat."

The old lady pressed on.

Shangqi let go of Su Rutang's hand.

He said to the old lady fiercely:

"I'm going to kill you too."

Finished speaking.

He ran toward the distant path.

The old lady hurriedly chased after him.

Chunxi patted her chest and said, "My lord, your last words made my scalp tingle."

Su Rutang stared blankly at his departing back.

I feel an indescribable sense of depression and discomfort in my heart.

"Second Grandma."

"Let's go."

After being messed around by Shangqi, Su Rutang no longer felt the stomachache.

Back to the flower hall.

It happened that a painting of pine and longevity was being auctioned, and several ladies and Prince Cheng competed to bid.

Prince Cheng stretched out his hand with a red face and a thick neck, shouting, "Five..."

Long Yu stuck out his tongue.

"Uncle Cheng, please don't be so loud. My father also loves the pine longevity painting very much. If he can't bid it back today, I'm afraid he will have to kneel on the tiles. I hope Aunt Cheng will be kind to Yu'er."

Princess Cheng held the handkerchief and smiled:

"I dare not plead for mercy. Look at your uncle, you are such a cannibal."

Shen Yunying's grandmother also refused to give in, saying that her old man could only take care of a limited number of other things for her, but she must bid back Mushan's calligraphy and paintings.

"Eight thousand taels of silver." The maidservant beside Shen Yunying's grandmother offered the price.

Long Yu followed closely behind, "Ten thousand taels."

"Twelve thousand." King Cheng refused to let go.

Others stopped bidding.

There were only three of them bidding, and they refused to give in even with their faces flushed and necks thickened.

Lan Xuanji smiled and said:

"Rutang brought out the painting, and our Su family should have bid for it back."

Princess Cheng smiled and joked:

"Don't even think about it. Don't you see the veins popping out of our prince's forehead?"

Su Rutang smiled lightly, "I'll send you a copy of the calligraphy some other day."

Princess Cheng stopped him, "Don't do that. If you send him a gift, you can't not send Secretary Shen, as well as Prince Anping, the general, the minister, and the six ministers... If you calculate it this way, you won't be able to send them all even if you spend all your money."

Old Madam Shen smiled and said:

"Princess Cheng is right. Rutang, just let those old men envy you. If you have the ability, spend money to buy it yourself."

Everyone was enjoying themselves.

As they were talking, Su Rutang discovered that Zhou Qiongyu, who was sitting at the girl's table, was not there.

She frowned, "Chunxi, go see Sister Yu. Don't wander around in Prince Cheng's mansion."

"Yes."

Chunxi took a step back and left with Xia An.

Lan Xuanji saw it and whispered:

"what happened?"

"I'm afraid Sister Yu will get lost here."

The voice was not loud, but Princess Cheng, who was sitting next to Su Rutang, still heard it. She said indifferently:

"It's okay. The garden in the palace is a bit big, so at most I can just walk a few more steps. You are just too worried about these children.

You look haggard now, but you may not realize that it is all because of overwork."

"Thank you for your concern, Princess Cheng."

"Twenty-two thousand taels." Shang Yan suddenly quoted a high price, his icy face, which had not changed for a thousand years, showing no expression at all.
