Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy
Chapter 127: Meeting a stranger in secret?
Princess House.
Xie Qingli took Leng Shuang and Chun Ya to the appointment as promised. Nong Ying led Xie Qingli and the other two to the Qinxin Pavilion in the garden. Qinxin Pavilion was the tallest building in the princess's mansion, from which one could enjoy the scenery of the entire mansion.
Walking along the way, Xie Qingli was refreshed by the green tiles and red roofs, the stacked buildings and pavilions, the lush green bamboos and the colorful flowers. She couldn't help but sigh that a princess's mansion alone was so exquisite, which showed the extravagance of the royal family.
Arriving at Qinxin Pavilion, Nong Ying bowed and said, "Xie, Miss, this is Qinxin Pavilion. The princess is on the top floor. You can just go up the stairs."
Xie Qingli nodded gently, but she wondered why Nong Ying didn't just lead her upstairs. Could it be Princess Fu'an's arrangement? She winked at Chunya and Lengshuang, then went upstairs alone.
Xie Qingli walked up the stairs to the top floor, and what caught his eye was a huge screen with a picture of a lady.
Walking around the screen, I saw Princess Fu'an with red eyes, pulling a man's sleeve. The man was standing with his back to the stairs. His face could not be seen, but I could feel that he seemed angry.
The princess secretly met with a man from outside her family???
Xie Qingli's head buzzed, and he quickly dodged and retreated behind the screen, his brain racing. Could this be a trap? How could he escape?
Princess Fu'an had already seen Xie Qingli. She wiped her slightly wet eyes, smiled brightly, and said happily, "Sister Li'er, you're here!"
"Sister Li'er?" the man murmured softly, and quickly turned to look at the screen. It was Chu Yuncang.
Xie Qingli secretly regretted that he had not been able to dodge in time, so he had to lower his head and walk out from behind the screen, praying in his heart that the man who had a secret meeting with the princess would leave quickly.
Princess Fu'an stepped forward and took Xie Qingli's hand. She looked at Xie Qingli carefully and her eyes lit up. Today, Xie Qingli was wearing a light green gauze shirt with an exquisite ribbon tied around her waist. She looked fresh and refined. She looked good in men's clothes, and she was even more stunning after changing into women's clothes.
Chu Yuncang was also a little stunned. He was extremely worried after hearing that Fu'an's horse was frightened. After the morning court today, he went straight to the princess's mansion.
But before they had said a few words, Fu'an asked him to meet his benefactor.
He had only heard that the person who rescued Fu'an was a young lady who had gone out of the house disguised as a man for fun, and he thought she was another noble lady from some other family. He did not want to meet any noble lady, so he had an argument with Fu'an.
It turns out that Fu'an's benefactor was Li'er. Why didn't Fu'an say it earlier?
Fu'an looked at the stunned Chu Yuncang, feeling slightly proud in her heart, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. She said that her benefactor was beautiful, brave and resourceful, and was different from those noble ladies in the capital, but her royal brother sternly rejected her and even scolded her!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her face furrowed as she said in a cold voice, "Royal brother, my benefactor has arrived. Since you are worried about the separation of men and women and have official business to attend to, I will not keep you here. Please return!"
Royal brother? Xie Qingli suddenly raised her head and saw Chu Yuncang with an embarrassed look on his face. So it wasn't a secret meeting with a stranger, but just a quarrel between siblings?!
How could Chu Yuncang miss the opportunity to spend time with Li'er openly? Ignoring Fu'an's surprised look, he turned around and sat back in his chair, saying softly, "I suddenly remembered that the official business had been handed over to Lord Fang, so I can spend the whole day with Xuan'er today."
Princess Fu'an was dumbfounded. This was the first time she had seen her aloof brother behave so scoundrelly. She was a little annoyed and grabbed Xie Qingli's hand, saying coldly, "Sister Li'er, let's go boating."
Chu Yuncang shook his head helplessly. He quickly followed Fu'an and coaxed him in a low voice, "Xuan'er, I shouldn't have been angry with you just now!" He glanced at Xie Qingli and asked softly, "Xuan'er, your benefactor..."
Princess Fu'an's anger had subsided after Chu Yuncang spoke so humbly. She immediately asked excitedly, "Brother, do you think Sister Li'er looks familiar? Brother, you certainly wouldn't guess that she is Aunt Jiang's daughter, Master Xie's biological sister, and the lost daughter of Aunt Jiang who was recently rumored in the capital!"
Chu Yuncang smiled and said, "I met Miss Li once when I attended the banquet at the Jiang Mansion." He turned to look at Xie Qingli and said softly, "Thank you, Miss Li, for your generosity and saving Xuan'er!"
Xie Qingli resisted the urge to roll her eyes. This man had been so familiar with her when he broke into her boudoir at night, yet now he was pretending not to know her! But under Fu'an's eager gaze, she could only bow gently to Chu Yuncang and say softly, "Your Highness, I greet you. It's just a small favor, nothing to mention!"
Princess Fu'an did not notice anything unusual about the two of them. She happily took Xie Qingli to the garden. Chu Yuncang followed closely behind them. Looking at the two of them talking and laughing, he felt peaceful and satisfied in his heart, and wished that time could stop at this moment!
As the three of them were enjoying tea in a pavilion, Nong Ying hurriedly entered and reported, "Princess, Princess Roujia has come uninvited. She said she heard your horse startle, so she came to see you. I couldn't stop her, and she's now heading towards the garden."
Princess Fu'an was startled when she heard this and asked in confusion, "She's usually not very friendly with me, why did she suddenly come today?" She turned to look at Chu Yuncang and suddenly said, "Royal brother, she must be here for..."
Before Fuan could finish, Chu Yuncang hurriedly stood up and said, "I have something to do, so I'll leave first!" He glanced at the confused Xie Qingli and said to Princess Fuan with a warning in his eyes, "Xuan'er, be careful and don't say anything nonsense."
After saying that, Chu Yuncang walked away in a hurry, but he hated Princess Roujia in his heart!
Xie Qingli frowned slightly. Princess Roujia was the daughter of the Grand Princess. Yesterday, Princess Fu'an frightened her horse, and the woman Leng Shuang followed finally entered the Grand Princess's mansion. Today, Princess Roujia came uninvited. Could all this be a coincidence?
Soon, a young girl dressed in a fiery red dress, holding a horse whip, hurried into the pavilion. This person was none other than Princess Roujia. Her features were not particularly striking, but her fair skin, against the backdrop of her red dress, gave her a rather dashing and heroic demeanor.
Princess Roujia plopped down next to Princess Fu'an. She looked at Fu'an and said perfunctorily, "I heard that my cousin scared a horse yesterday. Is she okay?"
Princess Fu'an shook her head gently and said softly, "Thank you for your concern, cousin. Xuan'er is safe!"
Princess Roujia said casually, "That's good!" She looked up and around, a hint of disappointment in her eyes: "Where's the Crown Prince's cousin? I heard he came to your house, why didn't I see him?"
Princess Roujia was so unconcealed that Fu'an frowned slightly. She said coldly, "Cousin, you came at an unfortunate time. My brother left just before you came!"
Princess Roujia stood up quickly. She was about to say goodbye and chase Chu Yuncang, but her eyes were suddenly attracted by the woman sitting on the other side of Fu'an. The woman had a beautiful appearance and an elegant temperament. It was a face she had never seen before.
Thinking of Chu Yuncang being with this woman just now, Roujia felt jealous. She pointed the whip in her hand at Xie Qingli and said coldly, "Who is this person? Why doesn't he bow to me when he sees me?"
