The Moon is Full in the Traveling House
Chapter 74: Master Chenxuan’s Reminder
Seeing Xiao An Ning return safely, Xiao Guanjia finally breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly came over and said with concern, "Second Miss, you are finally back! Is everything okay? I was so worried about you!"
Xiao An Ning smiled slightly, revealing her signature sweet smile, and comforted: "Grandpa Xiao, don't worry, I'm fine. Captain Su is here, and those people from the Wenxin Marquis's Mansion can't hurt me at all. Besides, the Princess and Princess Yuehua also came later, and those people from the Wenxin Marquis's Mansion will definitely not end well... By the way, are my parents and sister back?"
Butler Xiao quickly replied, "The general hasn't come back yet. Madam and the eldest lady just came back not long ago and are now in the young master's yard."
Hearing this, Xiao An Ning nodded, and then asked impatiently: "Then I'll go over to see them first." After that, she ran away as fast as the wind.
When Xiao Anning arrived, Xiao Anzhi had already fallen asleep peacefully. Mrs. Xiao was sitting by the bed, gently patting her youngest son's shoulders, as if she wanted him to sleep more peacefully. Xiao Anya stood quietly by, looking at her brother tenderly.
Noticing Xiao An Ning's arrival, Xiao Anya quietly made a gesture to keep quiet, fearing that she would wake up her sleeping brother. Then, she tiptoed out of the room and came to the yard with Xiao An Ning.
"Sister, how is Anzhi?" Xiao An Ning asked softly, with a hint of worry and anxiety in her tone.
"You took the medicine and just fell asleep. The child was worried about you. How is it? Did you suffer any harm?" Xiao Anya looked at her sister, her eyes full of concern.
Before Xiao An Ning could answer, she heard a muffled "creak" and the door was gently pushed open, and Mrs. Xiao walked out. She closed the door carefully, fearing that she would wake up her son who had just fallen asleep. Then, she glanced at her two daughters and said softly, "Let's talk in my room. An Zhi just fell asleep, don't wake him up."
The mother and daughter walked into Madam Xiao's room silently. Madam Xiao sat down slowly, her eyes fell on Xiao An Ning, and asked with some questions: "What happened when you went to Wenxin Marquis's Mansion today? Looking at your appearance, you should not have suffered any loss."
Xiao Anning took a deep breath and began to describe in detail what happened in the Wenxin Marquis's mansion. She described what happened vividly, as if you were in it. As Mrs. Xiao listened, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"It's really hard to describe the Wenxin Marquis Mansion. How could it be so full of shameless people? Anya, An Ning, you should prepare well tomorrow. We will go to the Shenwei Marquis Mansion to thank the princess." Mrs. Xiao said seriously.
"Don't worry, mother. I will prepare the thank-you gift later." Xiao Anya smiled slightly and replied softly.
Madam Xiao nodded slightly to show her agreement, and then changed the subject: "An Ning, you were too impulsive this time. If the princess hadn't arrived in time, were you really sure you could get away with it? You must think carefully and consider things over and over again before taking action in the future. Do you understand?"
Xiao An Ning smiled mischievously, holding her mother's arm tightly, and said coquettishly: "Oh, mother, don't worry! What can the group of people from Wenxinhou Mansion do to me? What's more, Captain Su is here, they can't even touch the corner of my clothes."
Mrs. Xiao sighed helplessly, tapped her daughter's forehead with her finger, and said angrily, "You should also consider your reputation before doing anything. Maybe tomorrow there will be rumors that the second daughter of the Xiao family is arrogant and domineering and will come to beat others. By then, who will be willing to marry you!"
"Mom, rumors stop at the wise. Besides, I don't want to marry those nerds who only know how to talk nonsense, or those playboys who go with the flow." Xiao An Ning pouted and muttered in dissatisfaction.
Mrs. Xiao looked at her daughter's cute and coquettish appearance and couldn't help laughing: "Then tell me, what kind of person do you want to marry?"
Xiao An Ning blurted out: "Of course it's a great hero like Dad!" As soon as she said that, she realized what she had said. She blushed with shame, stamped her feet, and said coquettishly: "Oh, Mom, I'm still young, why are you saying this..."
Seeing this, Xiao Anya on the side covered her mouth and chuckled, "Mom, please don't blame her. I think An Ning did a good job. Even in front of the emperor, we are in the right."
Mrs. Xiao shook her head helplessly, but her eyes were full of doting: "It's you two, father and daughter, who always protect her. Now she's becoming even more daring. Okay, okay, you've been tired all day. Go back and have a rest. You don't have to worry about this matter." After that, she waved her hand and signaled everyone to disperse.
The two sisters said goodbye to their mother and went out together. On the way, Xiao An Ning took her sister's hand and said angrily, "Sister, you haven't seen that Madam Song. She is really a weirdo! It was obviously Song Ye who caused the trouble, but she actually wanted the Fourth Young Master to take the blame for him. Marquis Wen Xin didn't refute it. How could this be possible? It seems that the rumors are true. The Fourth Young Master is so pitiful that he has such a black-hearted father and stepmother."
"I once heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mention this incidentally," Xiao Anya sighed, and then continued, "The fourth son of the Song family has good character, and is considered an outlier in the Wenxin Marquis's mansion. If you meet him, don't be rude, understand?"
"Don't worry, sister. I know." Xiao An Ning nodded. "Growing up in such an environment, he still has a good character. He is obviously a good person." She couldn't help but be curious about what kind of person the fourth son of the Song family was, and how he could maintain his kindness and integrity in such a bad family environment.
At this moment, Song Chen was sitting leisurely in the spacious and bright living room of the palace, sipping his tea. Sitting opposite him was the famous and renowned Master Chen Xuan.
Song Chen recounted everything that happened today without reservation. After listening, Master Chen Xuan tapped the table with his fingers a few times, then remained silent for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh: "It seems that the Wenxin Marquis Mansion has really come to an end! You must be prepared to deal with it as soon as possible. With Madam Song's temper, I'm afraid she won't let you go easily."
Song Chen smiled helplessly and replied, "When has she ever been kind and merciful to me? After so many years, I have long been accustomed to it. How can I still be afraid of her?"
However, Master Chen Xuan slowly shook his head and said, "The situation this time may not be that simple. If even Song Ye's position as the crown prince cannot be preserved..." Hearing this, Song Chen's face instantly became solemn, and he asked, "Master, what do you mean..."
Young Master Chen Xuan unhurriedly unfolded the folding fan in his hand and explained calmly, "This is just a guess, but you should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others. You also understand Madam Song's personality, so I will arrange two extraordinary people to lurk around you quietly, just in case of emergency, to ensure your safety."
"Thank you, sir." Song Chen bowed respectfully.
"It's getting late, you should go back soon." Master Chen Xuan smiled and said gently, "Don't let people suspect you, be careful in everything."
Song Chen nodded, bowed to Master Chen Xuan again, then turned and left.
Young Master Chen Xuan looked at Song Chen's receding figure, and a feeling of emotion welled up in his heart. The Wenxin Marquisate was on its last legs, and this was an unchangeable fact. After the previous purge, the court was already lacking in talents, and at this time, promoting some capable and potential newcomers became the most urgent task.
Thinking of this, Master Chen Xuan sighed softly. Next, he still had a lot of things to do and a long way to go. So, Master Chen Xuan turned around and left the palace, his figure gradually disappeared in the sea of people...
