"Go find out which pond Jiang Shuyu is in, and find someone reliable to bring me the set of golden and jade hairpins with double phoenixes holding pearls that my aunt gave me."
"Miss, that set of golden and jade hairpins was a gift from the Imperial Concubine. It's extremely precious. There are so many people here, and if it gets damaged after being brought here, then..."
Looking at Yuan Bingyan's sharp eyes, the maid's words gradually died down.
"Just go get it. Why are you talking so much nonsense? You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing the child. Just bring it to me. I know what I'm doing!" Yuan Bingyan raised the corners of her mouth slightly with a hint of pride. What she wanted was something that she couldn't afford to offend!
"Yes! I'll have someone get it right away!"
Whenever she thought about what happened, she felt extremely aggrieved. This matter had been bothering her for a long time. Now she finally had the chance to vent, and she naturally would not miss this good opportunity!
"Miss, I've found out. The hot spring that the emperor gave to General Jiang is in Hefeng Spring! I think Miss Jiang San is also there!"
"Hefengquan? Humph! It's really a good place! With Jiang Zhongming backing her up, no wonder she's so arrogant now." Yuan Bingyan concealed the sinister look in her eyes, then looked at the maid next to her and ordered: "Go and call Tie Qidai over. I have something for him to do!"
"Yes!"
……
at this time,
Xiao Jinrui stood under the eaves, his hands behind his back, his whole body dignified and imposing. Seeing Jiang Shuyu coming towards him, he couldn't help but say softly, "Miss Jiang San is here too, what a coincidence!"
"Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince Rui!"
Jiang Shuyu looked at the person in front of her and couldn't help but lower her eyes. Then she turned sideways to salute. Her heart was already cold. He was really a well-dressed beast!
"Miss Jiang, please excuse me! I wonder where Miss Jiang San is going. Why don't you come together?"
Xiao Jinrui's eyes moved, with a faint smile in his eyes. He didn't expect that Jiang Zhongming would come back this time and make great contributions. His father valued him even more, which made him reluctant to give up the power that was within his reach.
"I didn't expect to meet the Third Imperial Brother here. What a fate!"
Xiao Jingchuan's voice made Jiang Shuyu happy. She raised her head and looked towards Xiao Jingchuan. Their eyes met. Seeing the dependence in Jiang Shuyu's eyes, Xiao Jingchuan was in a good mood. Looking at Xiao Jinrui beside him, the smile on his face paused. Then he looked at Xiao Jinrui and said, "If Third Royal Brother is free, why don't we go have some tea together?"
Xiao Jinrui's face changed. Thinking of the suffering he had endured a few days ago, he suddenly felt itchy all over. He immediately looked at Xiao Jingchuan and bowed, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint your kindness, brother. Wan Ning is too noisy. Mother asked me to watch her and not let her get into trouble. I just heard from the servants that she's having a temper. I have to go and take a look. So, I'll take my leave now! I'll accompany you for tea another day! Goodbye!"
Seeing Xiao Jinrui leave so easily, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but be very surprised. She didn't know that Xiao Jinrui was so afraid of King Jing. But it was not difficult to guess. He was able to use his wife as a lure, so he must have been desperate.
Xiao Jingchuan watched Jiang Shuyu staring at the direction where Xiao Jinrui left in a daze, her eyes dimming slightly. He couldn't help but come in front of her and block her view.
Jiang Shuyu looked up at Xiao Jingchuan, seeing the smile in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel dazed. Then she looked at him respectfully and said, "I will not disturb His Royal Highness Prince Jing's leisure. I will take my leave first!"
"General Jiang has already gone there. He asked me to tell Miss Jiang San that she can go to Shishang Qingquan. The things are ready, so Miss Jiang San can go directly there!"
"The clear spring on the stone? Isn't that exclusive to His Royal Highness Prince Jing? How can a servant like you take it away? This is absolutely unacceptable!"
Listening to Xiao Jingchuan's words, Jiang Shuyu was extremely surprised. Although Xiao Jingchuan was not in Kyoto all year round, Yanhua Villa had always reserved a place for him.
In her previous life, she had heard that it was the largest hot spring pool besides the one owned by Emperor Shunqing. It was built by Emperor Shunqing specifically for Empress Xie. Unfortunately, Empress Xie never used it once before she passed away.
Afterwards, she was awarded to Xiao Jingchuan by Emperor Shunqing for safekeeping. Now Xiao Jingchuan actually asked her to go to that hot spring, which was naturally inappropriate!
Seeing Jiang Shuyu eager to refuse, Xiao Jingchuan couldn't help but frown.
"I'm away from home all year round and can't come here very often. It would be a waste if I didn't use it for such a long time. You just go there. Yuxiao, please take Miss Jiang San there!" Xiao Jingchuan said and turned to leave.
"Yes!" Yu Xiao quickly agreed, then looked at Jiang Shuyu and said:
"Miss Jiang, please!"
Seeing that Xiao Jingchuan had already walked away with an expression that would not tolerate rejection, Jiang Shuyu had no choice but to follow her.
At this time, there was a person tiptoeing around in the clear spring on the stone. He walked to the side of the incense burner and stayed there for a while, then left carefully.
When Jiang Shuyu came in, she couldn't help but feel something was wrong, but after looking around, she didn't find anything unusual, so she didn't take it to heart.
Yu Xiao ordered someone to bring the things that had been prepared long ago, and then looked at Jiang Shuyu and said respectfully:
"Miss Jiang, I've put everything here. If you need anything else, just tell me and I'll send it over right away!"
Yu Lan walked forward to check it out, then looked at Jiang Shuyu and nodded slightly, picked up the tray and stood beside Jiang Shuyu.
"Thank you for your help, Guard Yu." Jiang Shuyu naturally knew that Yu Xiao was one of Xiao Jingchuan's four guards, and since she was valued by Xiao Jingchuan, her abilities must be extraordinary. Jiang Shuyu was naturally willing to do her a favor.
"This is what my subordinates should do!" Yu Xiao smiled slightly, and the coldness on her face was gone. However, she has always been cold, and even with a smile on her face, people can't get close to her.
As the door slowly closed, the temperature inside the room gradually rose. Jiang Shuyu felt her body getting hotter and hotter. She immediately looked at Yu Lan and ordered, "Go get some fruit drinks. It's getting really hot now!"
Hearing Jiang Shuyu's instructions, Yu Lan immediately agreed, "Yes, Miss, I'll be back soon."
Yu Lan closed the door gently and saw that there was nothing unusual around her before leaving with peace of mind. After all, this was the territory of His Royal Highness Prince Jing, and who would dare to be presumptuous here?
Yu Lan thought it was simple, but she didn't know that not long after she left, a figure walked out from the darkness, listened attentively to the movement inside, and after a long time, slowly turned around and left.
Yu Xiao came in from outside, and seeing that there was nothing unusual around, he was about to leave. Unexpectedly, a woman came in from outside. Seeing her panicked look, he immediately became alert.
