The useless princess is causing trouble again
Chapter 72: Repaying a Favor
In the evening, a large golden pear wood carriage and four tall horses stopped at the gate of Prince Sheng's mansion.
Situ Chong got off the carriage with Shangguan Wei in his arms. As soon as he walked up the steps and crossed the threshold, an elderly nanny ran towards him and knelt on the ground to block Situ Chong's way. Seeing this, Ze Er hurried forward to block her. The ghosts and monsters flew to stand beside Ze Er, looking at the nanny with cold eyes.
The old maid was stunned for a few seconds, then said anxiously, "Your Highness, Madam Yuan has suddenly become bedridden for some reason, and Imperial Physician Shao can't diagnose the cause. I hope Your Highness Prince Sheng can go over and take a look."
Situ Chong glanced over and said, "I don't have medical skills and can't help. Nanny Yuan is old and most of her illnesses are old. Doctor Shao is from a famous doctor family, so let him take more care of her."
The old maid looked very embarrassed. "Madame Yuan's condition is not optimistic. She insisted on seeing Your Highness. Considering that Madame Yuan has served Your Highness since she was a child, can you go and visit her?"
Situ Chong's face darkened. "It's getting late, Madam Yuan, you should rest well. I will visit you tomorrow morning."
The old maid made up her mind and knocked her hands to the ground, "Your Highness, Nanny Yuan is in critical condition. I beg you to go and take a look."
Situ Chong ignored the old woman's pleas on the ground, his expression indifferent and distant, and he strode around Shangguan Wei in his arms.
Shangguan Wei thought of her masterpiece and whispered in Situ Chong's ear, "Husband, you should go over to visit her. Don't let others say that you are ungrateful. I am also very curious about what Nanny Yuan said to you. I will wait for you in the courtyard and then tell you something."
"Well, since Madam says so, I will be back soon."
Situ Chong saw a hint of cunning in Shangguan Wei's eyes, and he bent down and gently put the person on the ground. He turned his head and looked down at the old maid, "Madame Ping, please get up. I will go with you to visit."
"Yes, I will take Your Highness there right away."
Nanny Ping swiftly got up from the ground, jumped to the front to lead the way, a smile of triumph flashed across her face.
Shangguan Wei watched Situ Chong's back as he walked away, but a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Princess Sheng, what a coincidence, we meet here again."
Damn it, you already know the answer but still ask. Now that we live in the palace, we see each other everywhere.
Shangguan Wei gave a look as if she was looking at a fool and said, "Your Highness Prince Rong, it's getting late. Be careful of the slippery road or you might hurt your waist. Go back to the yard and have a good shower and sleep!" After saying that, she walked inside without turning her head, leaving someone standing there alone.
Nan Yanqing patted his folding fan, and looked at the figure walking away with a slight smile on his face. Then he turned his head to look at Yan Yi and said slowly, "I am very curious about the situation of Mr. Zheng San."
Yan Yi bowed respectfully and said, "As the master expected, Zheng Duwei has invited a doctor to come to the house."
Nan Yanqing opened the fan and waved it, "Interesting little girl, you really can't stand any loss. Yan Yi continues to send people to secretly observe the Supervisory Guard Mansion. This scene is getting more and more interesting. I want to know the final outcome." Then he strode forward with a faint smile on his face.
……
In the Yunlan Courtyard's main room, Nanny Yuan was lying flat on the bed with a painful expression on her face. The pain in her body felt like ants biting her, making her lose her mind and want to kill someone. She cursed the little bitch countless times in her heart.
Damn wild girl, I know it must be you who did this, just wait and see how I’m going to deal with you.
"Xing'er, has the prince come yet? If anything happens to mother, I will find a good home for you, otherwise mother will die with regrets."
Tian Xing'er sat in front of the bed, holding Nanny Yuan's right hand with both hands, her eyes full of worry, "Mother, don't talk nonsense, you will definitely live a long life and accompany your daughter forever."
Nanny Yuan's face was pale and her lips were cracked. She said weakly, "Silly child, your mother cannot be with you forever. I also know that you love His Highness. Your mother's health is not long. Even if it costs me my old face, I will ask His Highness for a status for you. Even if it is a concubine, it is better than marrying someone else."
Tian Xing'er nodded with tears in her eyes, "Xing'er will listen to mother's arrangements, but His Highness may not agree."
Nanny Yuan's face was distorted by pain. After a moment of silence, she said, "Don't worry. Mother saved your life. Your Highness will not refuse mother's last request when she is about to die."
"Mother, please don't say anything more. I just want you to get better as soon as possible and serve you forever without getting married."
Tian Xing'er was extremely happy in her heart, but her eyes were filled with tears.
"Your Highness grew up with you, and we are childhood sweethearts. He will definitely not refuse to marry you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man's low voice came from behind him, with a cold and distant tone.
"Madame Yuan will definitely get better if she takes a good rest. There is no need to rush to arrange her affairs after death. I will also help Tian Xing'er find a good man so that she will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life."
Nanny Yuan looked at the source of the voice, climbed up with difficulty and lay on the bedside, saying with a wronged expression, "Your Highness has come, and this old slave's body is unable to get up to greet him. Your Highness, can you please take Xing'er as a concubine in consideration of my dedicated service? This girl has loved Your Highness since she was a child, and let her have someone to rely on for the rest of her life."
Situ Chong walked to the square table and sat down. He looked up at Tian Xing'er and slowly said, "This king already has a princess, and I swear to marry only one person in this life and never take a concubine. Nanny Yuan wants Tian Xing'er to have someone to rely on, and this king will definitely help her find a good marriage."
Tian Xing'er fell to her knees upon hearing this, her eyes reddened as she softly said, "Please don't marry Xing'er to someone else, Your Highness. Xing'er won't go anywhere. I just want to stay by Your Highness' side forever as a personal maid, taking care of Your Highness's food and daily life."
Nanny Yuan put her hands on the quilt and said, "Xing'er is devoted to Your Highness. She only wants to stay by Your Highness' side and serve him. She will not take the position of the princess. I hope Your Highness can fulfill her wish."
Situ Chong glanced at her coldly, "My heart has been made up. The princess is the love of my life. There is no need for you to say more, Madam Yuan. Butler Li will find a good family for her. Tian Xing'er will be married off in a few days."
Tian Xing'er crawled to Situ Chong's feet and kowtowed desperately, "Please, Your Highness, please don't marry Xing'er off. Xing'er only wants to stay in Prince Sheng's Mansion."
Situ Chong looked down at Tian Xing'er, "You have hidden thoughts about me that you shouldn't have. I won't keep you here to upset the princess."
Nanny Yuan raised her head and stared at Situ Chong. Her face became even paler and uglier. She covered her heart with her right hand and said with tears in her eyes, "Men have always had three wives and four concubines. It is even more impossible for a prince to have only one woman, the princess. The princess is so jealous and cannot tolerate other women. It will be very unfavorable for your highness's future situation. The emperor will definitely punish you if he knows. Your highness should marry a virtuous woman who can take care of your daily life and have the power of her mother's family to help you rise to the top. She is not useless like the princess, who distracts you from everything."
"How dare you! Nanny Yuan has gone too far. Since there is nothing else to discuss, there is no need for this prince to stay any longer."
Situ Chong stood up and flicked his sleeves, releasing the imperial power from his whole body, then turned around and strode out.
Nanny Yuan leaned on the bed with her left hand, veins popping out on her face, and rebuked in a harsh voice, "Your Highness, don't be so ruthless. I saved your life."
Situ Chong stopped with his back to Nanny Yuan, his whole body shrouded in a layer of black mist. "Nanny Yuan is planning to force me to marry Tian Xing'er in exchange for a favor. Nanny Yuan should know better than me what happened to her life-saving favor." After saying that, he walked out of the room without looking back.
