Although most people cannot hear the voices of the people in the rockery, Pei Yi and Dan Feng are both people with great martial arts skills and sharp hearing that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Dan Feng felt his ears buzzing. What did he hear? The Crown Prince's wife wanted to have an affair and divorce and remarry?
Pei Yi's hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the wheelchair, with veins bulging on the back of his hands.
Listening to Xie Zhichan's words, I pondered them over and over in my mind, feeling mixed emotions.
Every time he recalled it, his heart felt like being stabbed by a needle, but he kept recalling it, trying to find some clues that the little fox was lying.
Is she grateful for Lu Xiuzhu's kindness?
Divorce? Set up a household on your own?
If you think too much, your life will become difficult now?
Is this life of a walking corpse for her now?
Every time he heard one more sentence, he felt like a basin of ice water was poured on his head. Not a single word could prove that she was lying!
He gave her the entire Heying secret guard team. She even knew that this was a gift as precious as her life, but her heart was still so hard-hearted that she wanted to separate from him without hesitation!
He just felt that if he stayed here any longer, he didn't know what he would do. Maybe he would rush in and do something to her in front of Lu Xiuzhu.
But he knew that if he did that, the little fox would hate him for the rest of his life.
So he just gritted his teeth, snorted coldly, and maneuvered his wheelchair to escape from there.
Pei Yi said nothing along the way. Dan Feng pushed his grandfather and felt that the air around him was getting colder and colder, as if the autumn cold wave had arrived early.
He sneezed and couldn't help but advised: "Master, if you don't want to divorce the Crown Prince's Consort, then find a way to keep her. Although your marriage with the Crown Prince's Consort is fake, isn't it easy to turn fake play into real action?"
Pei Yi shouted, "Shut up!"
He doesn't want to hear the word "divorce" again today!
Xie Zhichan, unaware that he had inadvertently angered Pei Lang, walked out of the rockery with Lu Xiuzhu and happened to meet Princess Anle Zhao Wuyou and her maids looking for Lu Xiuzhu.
It turned out that the reason why Zhao Wuyou was not present at the big shows in front of the flower hall today was because he knew that Lu Xiuzhu would speak for Xie Zhichan if he were there, so he deliberately took Lu Xiuzhu away and wandered around in other gardens.
Halfway through the stroll, Lu Xiuzhu went to the lotus pond to admire the goldfish. She followed him and accidentally slipped into the water, getting her embroidered shoes and skirt wet. She had no choice but to go back to wash and change her clothes. When she came out again, Lu Xiuzhu was gone. So she took people to look for him everywhere and finally found him here.
When Zhao Wuyou saw Lu Xiuzhu and Xie Zhichan walking out of the rockery together, he couldn't help but look at the deep and secluded path in the rockery. He saw that the light inside was mottled, and the path was winding and hidden. It was really a great place for a tryst!
Many images of men and women embracing each other immediately emerged in her mind. Her expression changed immediately, and she stared at Xie Zhichan with eyes that looked like she wanted to kill him: "What are you and Qiongzhi doing in there?!"
Xie Zhichan found it funny. It was clearly your man who was blocking me here, but you didn't ask him first, but instead questioned me?
She suddenly remembered the catnip-soaked hairpin that Princess Yongtai had "rewarded" her with, and her heart moved. It would be rude not to reciprocate.
She took out a silk-embellished butterfly-shaped gold hairpin from her space. This hairpin was one of the betrothal gifts given by the Prince of Yan's Mansion. She thought that she would at least participate in the betrothal. Although she couldn't take all the betrothal gifts, she could take one as a souvenir.
So she took out the golden hairpin that she liked at first sight, and now it is a great bargain for Princess Anle.
She took the golden hairpin in her hand and smiled at Zhao Wuyou, "I saw that there was something mysterious inside the rockery in the princess's mansion, so I took a walk inside. Unfortunately, I ran into Master Lu coming from the other side. I guess he was in a hurry to find the princess and took a shortcut."
When she came, she could see clearly that the path inside the rockery led directly to the moon-shaped gate in the courtyard opposite, which was much closer than walking through the corridor.
Zhao Wuyou looked at Lu Xiuzhu with suspicion on his face. Although he found it a little unbelievable, he couldn't hide his joy.
She thought that Qiongzhi was willing to be nice to her, and her mother must have talked to him about it.
Xie Zhichan then spread his hands in front of Zhao Wuyou, with the golden hairpin in his hand shining brightly.
She smiled and said, "Mr. Lu said he prepared a gift for the princess, but he didn't know if the princess would like it, so he wanted to ask me if the princess would like the pattern of this hairpin. I was just about to take it out to take a closer look in the sun when the princess came."
Princess Anle snatched the hairpin from Xie Zhichan's hand and saw that the pearls on it were rare and top-grade oriental pearls, and the whole hairpin was made of pure gold, which was bright and gorgeous, and matched her temperament very well.
When she heard that it was Qiongzhi who gave it to her, she was so happy that she couldn't help herself.
She raised her chin and said to Xie Zhichan: "What right do you have to touch the things that Qiongzhi gave me with your dirty hands!"
She handed the hairpin to Lu Xiuzhu and said, "Qiongzhi, I like everything you give me. Can you put it on me?"
Lu Xiuzhu didn't know where the golden hairpin in Xie Zhichan's hand came from, nor did he know why she said that this hairpin was a gift from him to Princess Anle. But seeing Princess Anle's happy attitude, he didn't want to create any more trouble, and even more didn't want Princess Anle to embarrass Ayuan, so he followed Princess Anle's wishes and inserted the golden hairpin into her bun.
Princess Anle touched the hairpin on her head and asked the maids behind her, "Does it look good?"
The maids all nodded and said, "It looks good."
Princess Anle could not hide the joy on her face, but she shyly took Lu Xiuzhu's arm, raised her head and chin, looked at Xie Zhichan with contempt, snorted, and pulled Lu Xiuzhu away.
Even after walking a long way, Xie Zhichan could still hear Zhao Wuyou's excited voice, "Qiongzhi, there is a painting of the Twelve Maids in our peony garden. I'll take you to see it. If you like it, we'll move it back when we leave and put it in our yard so you can see it every day."
The so-called peony in the Picture of Twelve Maids is a peony with flowers of twelve colors blooming on it. Xie Zhichan could probably guess that it was obtained by grafting branches of twelve colors onto a main branch. The method is not difficult, but the lush twelve-color peony flowers blooming at the same time are really beautiful and worthy of such a sexy name as the Picture of Twelve Maids.
However, what Lu Xiuzhu probably dislikes the most right now is peony - princesses, princesses, these women who rely on their royal blood and call themselves beauties, don’t they call themselves peonies?
Shortly after leaving the rockery courtyard, they passed through a moon-shaped door and saw a lotus garden in front. There were naturally no lotus flowers in this season, so there were not many people in this courtyard. Xie Zhichan just happened to take a rest here.
Not long after she sat down on a long stone bench under a lush willow tree, a maid ran over in a panic, looking around for someone. When she saw Xie Zhichan, she shouted, "Princess, it's bad. The prince is suddenly unwell. The guards beside him asked me to come find you. Come with me."
Xie Zhichan thought about Pei Yi's physical condition. She guaranteed that as long as he didn't drink too much and didn't get injured, there would be no problem.
The girl seemed flustered, but her expression was clearly an act. Her eyes and body movements were telling Xie Zhichan that the maid was lying.
If others want to cause trouble, she cannot hide. She wants to teach these unscrupulous people who stand at the pinnacle of power what it means to bring trouble upon themselves.
She stood up and said to the maid, "Take me to see the prince!"
The maid glanced at Xiao Liu'er and Yueyan behind Xie Zhichan, and then said, "Guard Danfeng also said that Miss Yueyan is fast on foot. Please go back to Prince Yan's Mansion to ask Old Doctor Ye to come. Miss Liu'er should go to the Princess's Mansion to find Miss Qin. They are both most familiar with the prince's condition."
Xie Zhichan thought to herself, it seems that the person who set up the scheme knows a lot about the situation around her, and is trying to trick everyone around her away.
She said to Yueyan and Xiaoliu'er, "Listen to Danfeng's arrangements and go quickly."
Xiao Liu'er had no doubts and wanted to leave immediately, but Yue Yan was a little hesitant. The prince's order asked her to be responsible for protecting the prince's wife and not to leave her side easily. What's more, the Princess's Mansion was a dangerous place today.
Xie Zhichan knew that Yue Yan would definitely hesitate, so he comforted her, "It's okay, go quickly, don't delay treating the prince." The moment his hand gently touched Yue Yan's hand, he wrote two words "Angen" on her palm.
Yue Yan understood instantly, replied "yes", and left.
The maid secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Yueyan and Xiaoliuer leave.
Xie Zhichan looked at her and smiled: "You seem very nervous?"
The maid shrank back and said, "Your Highness Princess, you are mistaken. I just ran over here and haven't even caught my breath yet."
After saying that, he led Xie Zhichan to a guest house.
