Reborn Young Lady's Peerless Grace

Du Zhijie didn't react much, just nodded expressionlessly: "You go to the General's Mansion first, I need to go to the palace."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at the General's Mansion. General, you'd better come back early."

Princess Suyun, who wanted to get closer, looked up at Du Zhijie on horseback. After seeing his deep pupils, she was still afraid in her heart. She just bowed on the spot and retreated to the side of the street.

This shouldn't be the case. They are both poisoned, but why is Xiao Chenyang so attached to Xuanyuan Qiaoer and so obedient to her, while General Du is so cold.

Maybe everyone's reaction is different.

But no matter what, her ultimate goal has been achieved, hasn't it? Du Zhijie, who has never been interested in women, has already accepted her. Thinking of this, Princess Suyun raised her bright smile.

The guards around were all shocked. General...General, what is this?

Jing'er above her stared with eyes wide open, her mouth wide open, as if an egg could fit in it. She said in disbelief, "Miss, what's wrong with General Du? He seems like a completely different person. Did I hear correctly? He told the princess to wait for him at the general's mansion!"

Shen Wanqing didn't say anything, but her hand unconsciously clenched the teacup, revealing her displeasure.

As if sensing something, Du Zhijie raised his head and his eyes met Shen Wanqing's.

It was obviously the same person, but now Du Zhijie looked at her with a very unfamiliar look, an indescribable strangeness. Shen Wanqing couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart, and her eyes were a little red.

Du Zhijie withdrew his gaze indifferently. He naturally recognized that the woman in blue by the second-floor window was Miss Shen. Why did he feel distressed when he saw her so sad, as if there was a big piece missing in his heart.

He couldn't explain how he felt, he just didn't want to leave, he wanted to stay, he wanted to go straight to her, it seemed like they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

The guard noticed that something was wrong with his expression and reminded him, "General, we should leave."

Suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Du Zhijie nodded.

The team set out again and headed towards the palace.

Jing'er was anxious: "Miss, should we chase him and ask General Du what happened? I clearly saw him look up and see us, why... why did he leave..."

Shen Wanqing said nothing. She pursed her lips tightly and looked at Princess Suyun's receding back, her eyes dark and unclear.

After a long while, she took a deep breath, drank the tea in the cup, and then said softly, "Let's go and take a look at the General's Mansion."

Jing'er nodded vigorously. She couldn't believe that General Du had been away for less than a month, but his attitude had changed so much when he came back.

When they arrived at the gate of the general's mansion, they heard noisy sounds from afar.

"I've already said it was your young general who asked me to wait in the general's mansion first. You servants, why don't you let me in quickly? When the young general comes back later, I will definitely punish you severely!"

At first glance, it was Princess Suyun's voice.

The old steward of the General's Mansion and his guards stood guard at the door, their faces full of disdain: "Princess, are you suffering from hysteria? There is a clinic two blocks south. Princess, you should go see a doctor first."

"What nonsense are you talking about, old slave? This princess is warning you, let me in immediately!"

"I don't know who was thrown out by the general before. Oh, if the princess doesn't leave now, I'm going to close the door and let the dogs out."

"Well, you lowly slave, let me tell you, this princess is the future general's wife. If you treat me like this now, you will definitely regret it later!"

"General's wife?"

Everyone looked at each other, and the next moment, they all burst into laughter.

The old butler suppressed his laughter and said seriously, "Princess, please do not tarnish the innocence of my general. Everyone knows that our general's mansion has already arranged an engagement with the fourth young lady of the Shen family. Besides, I heard that the second prince has issued an order for the princess to leave the capital as soon as possible."

"That's right, go away quickly, go back to your Zi Luo Kingdom, I'm going to close the door." The guard on the side said, and wanted to close the door of the general's mansion.

At this moment, the old housekeeper spotted Shen Wanqing's carriage and immediately changed his attitude: "Wait, Miss Shen is here."

The guard stopped closing the door, took a look, and stood aside respectfully.

Shen Wanqing got off the carriage and greeted the housekeeper with a smile: "I heard that the general returned to Kyoto. I have something to discuss with him, so I came here."

The old housekeeper narrowed his eyes in a smile and said, "Even if Miss Shen has nothing to do, you can come here often. Please come in." After that, he shouted towards the general's mansion, "Hurry up and ask the kitchen to prepare some snacks and bring them to the flower hall!"

Princess Suyun was so angry that her face was distorted. She stopped Shen Wanqing and said, "Miss Shen, it's not appropriate for you, an unmarried girl, to stay in the general's mansion."

Before Shen Wanqing could say anything, the old housekeeper glared at Princess Suyun and said, "Miss Shen is an honored guest of the General's Mansion. You can come anytime. Princess, please stand aside and don't block the way."

So under Princess Suyun's murderous gaze, Shen Wanqing slowly stepped into the general's mansion. When Jing'er passed by, she rolled her eyes.

Princess Suyun sneered in her heart, let you be proud, let's see if you can still be arrogant now that our general is back.

At this moment in the palace, Du Zhijie reported everything about Wu County to the second prince Yuwen Yi. Yuwen Yi was very happy to know that the bandit suppression was successful, but when he saw that Du Zhijie's left arm was injured, he hurriedly called the imperial physician and told him to go back home to recuperate today, and wait for the trial results of the Dali Temple to come out before returning to the palace to deal with it.

Du Zhijie himself also felt uncomfortable, and this discomfort was amplified after seeing Su Yun at the gate of the palace. But even so, he said: "Why are you standing at the gate? Why don't you go sit inside the general's mansion?"

Princess Suyun blinked, looking pitiful: "General, it was the steward of the General's Mansion who wouldn't let me in."

Du Zhijie frowned and took Suyun into the general's mansion.

When Shen Wanqing heard that he had returned home, she sat in the flower hall and did not get up, just quietly watching his reaction.

When the old housekeeper saw Princess Suyun being brought in, he was anxious and angry. He kept winking at Du Zhijie until his eyelids were sore from blinking.

What should I do? I must not let Miss Shen get angry and leave!

Princess Suyun pouted and pointed at the housekeeper, saying, "He was the one who stopped me from entering the mansion!"

As he said that, he tried to pull Du Zhijie's arm, but his body instinctively dodged him.

Princess Suyun was a little embarrassed, and then put on a pitiful expression: "And Miss Shen, why can she enter the general's mansion and meet the general without even bowing? General, I feel bad."

Hearing this, Du Zhijie wanted to scold Shen Wanqing. But when he saw her, he couldn't help but walk closer. She looked pretty no matter how she frowned. It seemed that as long as he was close to her, his heart would be sweet.
