After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor
Chapter 32: Meeting Princess Le'an Again
The Xuan private room on the second floor of Qingfeng Tower is spacious and comfortable, with a large wooden table placed by the window.
The window faces the street and has a good view. Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru sit down together.
"I have something else to do later, wait for me here."
Yuan Wanru nodded and had no objection.
However, she suddenly thought of something, rolled her eyes, and sighed.
"My dear husband, the guards at our Zhongyong Marquis' Mansion are no longer effective. You should consider replacing them."
Lu Jiangnian looked puzzled: "Why do you say that?"
She said, "Last night, a thief actually stole something. Do you think it was because of poor security?"
Lu Jiangnian frowned, "What happened? What was lost in Mianyue Pavilion?"
The thought of a thief evading his men and sneaking into Mianyue Pavilion made him feel fierce. If that thief was so bold that he not only wanted the things but also wanted...
How did Xuanying arrange the people that such a mistake would happen?
"It's not Mianyue Pavilion, it's the laundry room. That beautiful dress I wore yesterday was actually lost in the laundry room. Isn't that strange?"
As she said this, she stared at him without blinking, trying to find clues on his face.
Lu Jiangnian tightened his grip on the teacup, his expression expressionless as he slowly said, "It's just a piece of clothing, nothing special. If you want new clothes made, just ask the sewing room to arrange it."
After hearing this, Yuan Wanru had an idea in her mind.
She sneered in her heart and said abruptly: "If it was a woman who stole it, it wouldn't be a big deal, but if it was a man, it would be bad."
"I'm afraid this will ruin the reputation of my cousin from the Cao family."
Lu Jiangnian asked in confusion: "What does it have to do with her?"
Yuan Wanru smiled innocently and lovingly: "That dress belongs to Cao Lanxin. I'm just borrowing it to wear."
"I don't know which disgusting person actually stole her clothes."
"I was thinking of washing it and returning it to her."
Lu Jiangnian choked and coughed twice, almost spitting out the tea in his mouth. He looked at Yuan Wanru in disbelief: "That's not what you said yesterday?"
Now, what is there to understand? The clothes thief must be the person in front of me.
Hypocritical hypocrite!
She asked him coldly: "What did you say? Does it have anything to do with you?"
"Could it be that you stole the clothes?"
Liu Yan and Liu Zhi were both stunned as they looked at the embarrassed Lu Jiangnian. They couldn't believe that the handsome and handsome young master would do such a sneaky thing.
Xuanying and Xuanqing, one looked up at the sky and the other looked down at the ground, not daring to say that they saw the prince carrying a bundle and returning to the Wujingzhai in a mysterious manner last night.
Lu Jiangnian hated it so much that his teeth were itching, and he really wanted to bite that sharp little mouth.
He hurriedly said, "I'm going to go out for a while. If you're hungry, you can eat by yourself."
People are like a wisp of smoke, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Yuan Wanru snorted lightly, what a coward who dares to do things but not to take responsibility.
She ignored him and sat by the window, watching the bustling crowd on the street downstairs with great interest.
Qingfeng Tower is located on Zhuque Street, the most prosperous street in the capital. Various vendors are doing good business on the street. There are a few loud people who keep telling customers: "My products are good and cheap. You won't lose out if you buy them."
There was a group of children gathered at the next alley, playing some unknown game, but the sounds of laughter and play could be heard.
Such a peaceful and prosperous scene made Yuan Wanru feel much more at peace.
Fortunately, she did not travel through time to a troubled time, otherwise, her life would have been extremely difficult.
Liu Yan and Liu Zhi didn't have many opportunities to go out, so at this time they followed Yuan Wanru and lay on the window, looking at the street scene below with great interest.
Liu Yan slurped his saliva and couldn't help but sigh: "Madam, that stall of fried sugar cakes smells so good, it makes me hungry just by smelling it."
Liuzhi rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "If you want to eat, go buy it. Who are you trying to embarrass with your useless appearance?"
Liu Yan snorted softly, "Don't try to trick me."
"I'm still looking forward to enjoying the delicacies of Qingfeng Tower. You want me to eat my fill and then have it all to myself."
Liuzhi curled his lips and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
Yuan Wanru listened to their bickering and felt that the years were peaceful.
They all followed her from the Yuan family and were loyal to her. In the book, Liu Yan was later betrayed, and Liu Zhi followed her and died.
And Aunt Pang didn't have a good ending either.
Thinking of this, she felt a little heavy in her heart.
She must protect these people. They have never meant to harm anyone and cannot end up like this.
-
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Jiangnian was still nowhere to be seen.
Yuan Wanru ordered several dishes and asked Liu Yan and Liu Zhi to dine together.
While eating, they heard aggressive footsteps outside the door, and then the door of the private room was pushed open with force, which scared Liu Yan so much that she jumped up.
They turned their heads and saw a young woman in elegant clothes and with a beautiful appearance standing at the door. She first shouted angrily, "Lu Jiangnian."
Yuan Wanru felt a chill in her heart. She couldn't help but think that she had really met Princess Le'an today.
Princess Le'an looked around and seemed to realize that the person she was looking for was not there, and her expression paused slightly.
Then, her eyes fell on Yuan Wanru's face. For a moment, she seemed a little unable to recognize that the person in front of her was Yuan Wanru.
After a while, Princess Le'an narrowed her eyes slightly, then widened them, raised her chin, and shouted arrogantly, "It's you!"
She reached out and touched the whip at her waist, and Yuan Wanru had a very bad feeling.
This woman doesn't make any sense at all.
Last time Lu Jiangnian destroyed one of her whips, but unexpectedly, she got a new one this time.
In a contest of strength, she is bound to lose.
What's more, Princess Le'an was followed by a large group of people, so even if she didn't have a whip in her hand, it would not be difficult to beat her.
In a flash, she had come up with an idea.
She stood up preemptively, lifted up the table, and threw all the dishes to the ground, making a huge noise, the sound of broken porcelain and the sound of the wooden table falling to the ground. Anyone with ears in Qingfeng Tower could probably hear it.
She secretly thanked her luck that the wooden table in Qingfeng Tower was not made of heavy hardwood, otherwise she would not be able to lift it up in one go.
Princess Le'an was stunned, looking at her in confusion, and stopped what she was doing.
"what are you doing?"
Yuan Wanru was furious and pointed at the dishes on the ground: "Qingfeng Tower is simply outrageous!"
"I wonder if the princess has ever dined at Qingfeng Tower. If she has, then it's all over!"
She spoke with righteous indignation and seriousness, and Princess Le'an's emotions were immediately aroused by her.
She couldn't help but be curious and asked, "Of course I've eaten here before, is there anything wrong?"
Her attitude was still arrogant and unattainable, but it didn't matter. What Yuan Wanru wanted was for her to keep asking questions and delay time.
The three of them, master and servant, were surrounded by Princess Le'an. It was probably impossible for them to get out.
No one knew where Lu Jiangnian had hidden, but Qingfeng Tower only had three floors. Since he had brought her here on purpose, it meant that he was already in the building. He didn't even bother to check out such a big commotion. He was such a fool.
Yuan Wanru was heartbroken. She pointed at Liu Yan and then at the food on the ground and said, "My princess, do you know what we found in that braised pork elbow just now?"
"simply……"
“That’s disgusting.”
Liu Yan was always smart and reacted immediately, "Madam, please stop talking. You're making me want to vomit again."
This word "又" is so wonderful that Yuan Wanru really wants to give a thumbs up to the little girl.
The master and servant sang in unison, completely arousing Princess Le'an's curiosity.
You know, Qingfenglou is an old brand in Beijing. Although it is not the best, most of the people in the wealthy circles in Beijing have eaten here.
Could there be something pickled in the dish?
Princess Le'an thought that she had also eaten here, and her face turned green.
How dare she be so bold! What kind of disgusting things did Qingfenglou give her to eat?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Qingfenglou had trampled on her dignity. She ordered sternly, "Go to the first floor and tie up the shopkeeper!"
Yuan Wanru and Liu Yanliuzhi exchanged glances, and Liu Yan immediately bent down and made several "vomit" sounds. Princess Le'an's brows were almost knotted when she heard this, and she immediately retreated out the door.
Although Liu Zhi was a little slow to react earlier, she now caught up with the plot. She stepped forward and patted Liu Yan on the back: "Didn't you just spit that stuff out?"
"Why do you feel like vomiting again? Are you okay?"
Yuan Wanru sighed: "It's all your fault. I ate too hastily and swallowed it without even looking carefully. That's why I feel so uncomfortable."
"But, after all, it's still Qingfeng Tower's fault."
She turned to look at Princess Le'an, who was standing outside the door, refusing to step in. "Have you ever ordered the braised pork knuckle from Qingfeng Tower before?"
“If you click on it, it would really be…”
She didn't finish the rest of the words, but her eyes were full of sympathy and pity.
Princess Le'an felt her scalp tingle. She wanted to say that she had never ordered it, but the braised pork elbow was the signature dish of Qingfeng Tower, so of course she had eaten it.
What's in the braised pork elbow?
She felt a little nauseous.
While she was still in doubt, the shopkeeper, who looked innocent, had been caught. Princess Le'an angrily asked, "You bastard, what on earth did you feed me?"
The shopkeeper was totally wronged.
As soon as Princess Le'an entered the door, she went straight to the second floor.
She was the legitimate daughter of the Prince of Qin, of noble birth, and had always been domineering. Everyone in the capital who had a little vision recognized her.
Even though the shopkeeper could see that she was there to cause trouble, he didn't dare to stop her.
Princess Le'an didn't order anything, what could he give her to eat?
"Princess, you haven't ordered anything yet?!"
Princess Le'an was going crazy. When she thought about what kind of dirty food she had eaten in the past, she wanted to beat the person in front of her to pieces.
"What's in the braised pork knuckle?"
The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment and said uncertainly, "Of course it's pork knuckle."
Lu Jiangnian, who rushed over in a hurry, was confused about the situation for a moment.
There was a startling noise just now, and Xuan Qing found out through inquiries that Murong Ling had come to Qingfeng Tower.
He felt bad at that time, fearing that Yuan Wanru had fallen into Murong Ling's hands.
Without caring about anything else, he quickly came to find Yuan Wanru, but saw Murong Ling in front of Yuan Wanru's private room, asking the shopkeeper what was in the braised pork elbow?
What's going on?
