I just want to live a good life

Chapter 5 Brother Prince

Su Nuan put Lu Zhu's matter aside for the time being. Today was the day she was going back home, so she had to hurry up and leave. Maybe she could even make it in time for breakfast at the general's mansion.

Normally, Chunliu and Bitao had already been sent back, so Su Nuan could have taken them back to the general's mansion, but she still decided to take Baozhu and Meixiang back with her, if for no other reason than for the two of them to have something good to eat with her.

The return of the Crown Prince's concubine was a grand affair. Except for the Crown Prince, Steward Ding had prepared everything else for Su Nuan. He also carefully prepared gifts for the General and Madam Xia.

Sitting in the spacious carriage, Su Nuan secretly recalled her original body's memories to make sure she would not mistake her family members.

Perhaps because there were Baozhu and Meixiang in the carriage, no one spoke along the way and it was very quiet.

Before I knew it, I was almost at the General's Mansion. After another alley, I would see the gate of the General's Mansion.

As the carriage turned into the alley, the driver shouted, "Whose carriage is this? Don't come in yet. Back off."

Su Nuan stretched her head and looked outside. She saw a carriage just pulled into the alley from the other end. From the appearance of the carriage, she knew that the owner was either wealthy or noble.

Both carriages were quite luxurious with wide compartments, so it was very difficult to pass each other in this small alley. That was why the coachman asked them to give way when he saw the opposite carriage appear.

But the driver of the carriage on the other side was not a pushover. Upon hearing the shout, he immediately replied, "Our carriages have already come in and cannot go back. You should move back a little."

When the driver heard this, he shouted back: "How dare you block the carriage of the Crown Prince's Mansion? Back off quickly."

The driver on the opposite side stopped shouting this time, but he did not retreat either, and even went faster than before.

Su Nuan really wanted to know who was sitting in the carriage opposite. The coachman had already announced the name of the Prince's Mansion, but the other party was so disrespectful.

Apparently the driver was as curious as Su Nuan. Seeing the other party speeding up, he also urged the horse to speed up.

Soon the two carriages stopped in the middle of the alley, and a delicate voice came from the opposite carriage, "Is it the prince brother?"

The voice was crisp and sweet. Su Nuan's eyes lit up and her curiosity grew.

"Brother Prince, I am An Su!"

Su Nuan used her eyes to ask the four maids who this An Su was. Bi Tao replied first: "This seems to be Cheng An Su, the daughter of the Prime Minister."

Meixiang then said, "This Miss Cheng has admired Your Highness for a long time. I heard that the Prime Minister even came to the Prince's Mansion to propose marriage on behalf of his daughter."

"What happened next?" Bitao asked.

Mei Xiang smiled and said, "Of course it didn't work out."

Who would have thought that a prince with gay sleeves would be so popular? Su Nuan pondered secretly, and no wonder, Mu Yunting was handsome, and could charm all the women with just his face, not to mention the supreme power that was within his reach.

Everyone in the carriage was discussing quietly when they heard the driver outside say loudly, "Miss Cheng, the person sitting in the carriage is not the Crown Prince, but the Concubine."

There was silence for a moment, and then a delicate voice sounded again, "Oh, it turns out to be the Crown Prince's concubine. Excuse me, Concubine, I'm in a hurry to go to the palace to chat with the Queen Mother, please move your carriage back!"

"Miss Cheng, this is against the rules." The coachman from the Prince's Mansion reminded Cheng Ansu.

Cheng Ansu said disdainfully: "Who do you think you are? You are telling me the rules. Besides, rules are dead, but people are alive. Can you afford to offend the Queen Mother for delaying her entertainment because of such a small matter?"

The driver didn't dare to say anything else, but he didn't dare to retreat on his own initiative. He turned to Su Nuan in the carriage and whispered, "Empress Concubine."

Su Nuan curled her lips when she thought about how to teach this arrogant woman a lesson by bringing up the empress dowager to scare people, but the person on the other side took action first.

At Cheng Ansu's urging, the Cheng family's coachman was driving the carriage towards them, forcing them to retreat.

Su Nuan muttered in a low voice, "I didn't mean to cause trouble, you asked for it."

Then she pulled out a beautiful little horsewhip from her waist. This horsewhip was a personal item of her original self, Xia Qingyan, and she carried it with her wherever she went.

Su Nuan originally didn't like this kind of thing, but she had to go back to the general's mansion today, and she was afraid of being asked about it, so she brought the horsewhip with her.

"You guys hold on to the handrails." After reminding the four people in the carriage, Su Nuan lifted the curtain and leaned out of the carriage.

She yelled, "Quickly step back and make way for Miss Cheng."

He raised the whip in his hand and hit the horse's butt hard.

The horse felt pain, raised its hooves and rushed forward with all its might.

With a bang, the two carriages collided with each other. Because Su Nuan had warned them in advance, several maids held on to the handrails tightly, so although they were shaken by the collision, they were not seriously injured.

Cheng Ansu was in a terrible situation. Because she was not prepared, she and her maid fell out of the carriage. If the coachman hadn't blocked them in front, they would have rolled off the carriage.

Everyone was stunned by this, and Su Nuan was also a little scared. She didn't want to hurt anyone, she just wanted to scare Cheng Ansu. She didn't expect that the horse would be so powerful after being frightened, and she was almost thrown out.

Silently saying "Thank God!", Su Nuan secretly warned herself that she should never do such risky things again.

"Ouch, my arm seems to be broken."

Cheng Ansu's moans came from the carriage.

Su Nuan felt a little guilty. The other man was just a little arrogant, and breaking her arm was too much.

At this moment, Meixiang leaned close to Su Nuan's ear and whispered, "She is pretending."

Su Nuan quickly leaned over the car window and took a peek. Sure enough, she saw Cheng Ansu patting his dirty clothes, and there was nothing unusual about his arms.

Su Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time thought to herself that this was going to cause trouble!

Think about it, "The Crown Prince's concubine rode a horse to commit a crime and ran into the Prime Minister's daughter." This should be a hot search in the imperial city.

You can pretend, but I can’t?

Su Nuan winked at Meixiang, then covered her head and cried out "ouch".

Mei Xiang understood and reached out to support Su Nuan, while shouting at the top of her voice: "Oh no, the concubine was knocked unconscious."

As soon as this shout was uttered, there was immediate silence in the Cheng family's carriage.

Afterwards, Su Nuan closed her eyes and got off the carriage with the help of Meixiang and Bitao. Baozhu and Chunliu asked the coachman to move the things.

It took the master and servant only a few breaths to run out of the alley. By the time the people in the Cheng family's carriage reacted, they had already left the alley.

The Cheng family's driver lay on the carriage, watching the disappearing figures of Su Nuan and the others and said, "Miss, the concubine must be pretending to be unconscious, why is she running so fast?"

"Nonsense, of course she is pretending to be unconscious, go get their carriage out of here for me."

The driver took a look at the carriage and shaft of his own carriage and said with a bitter face, "No, miss, our carriage is damaged and can't move."

After a moment of silence, Cheng Ansu roared, "Xia Qingyan, just wait!"

Several people who were lying at the entrance of the alley watching the excitement all looked at Su Nuan at the same time.

Su Nuan laughed and said, "I was knocked unconscious and didn't hear her calling me. Why don't you carry me back to the general's mansion?"

Amidst laughter, several people walked towards the general's mansion.

In the alley, Cheng Ansu got off the carriage with the help of her maid. Her face, which had been distorted by anger, gradually turned gloomy.

She said through her teeth, "I want to see what the Queen Mother's expression would be when she knew her granddaughter-in-law was so brave!"
