Chapter two hundred and thirty eight: upset
Ruan Wanwan and Jiang Huaiyuan had already left the fifth princess's banquet, and now they have no idea what happened.
Jiang Huaiyuan saw that Ruan Wanwan seemed to be attracted by something outside the window, so she also stood up and walked to the window and looked down.
She exclaimed: "Crown Princess, aren't those Xiao Huxi and Lan Ziyuan?"
"what happened?"
Ruan Wanwan shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.
They obviously just went to a banquet, why would Lan Ziyuan cry like this?
"Could it be that Lan Ziyuan was bullied by Xiao Huxi?" Jiang Huaiyuan asked uncertainly.
Ruan Wanwan shook her head decisively and said to her: "No, with so many people watching, Xiao Huxi will definitely not do such a thing in public and let others take advantage of it."
Jiang Huaiyuan was puzzled and fell silent.
Seeing the two of them lingering by the window, Jiang Huai'an also came over. He glanced away and saw a woman crying in the crowd, which was particularly eye-catching.
Jiang Huai'an observed the two people's reactions and estimated that the somewhat embarrassing woman was not only known to them, but also closely related to her. Could it be that she was a concubine in the prince's palace?
Then if she cried and cried on the street like this, it would still have a big impact on the reputation of the Prince's Mansion, right?
Ruan Wanwan turned her gaze away from Lan Ziyuan and stopped looking. She turned around and said to Jiang Huaian: "Sorry, we may have something to do today and have to leave first."
Jiang Huai'an was convinced, and he nodded: "Okay, Jiang Huaiyuan, please take care of me. See you soon."
"Definitely." Ruan Wanwan agreed calmly.
Jiang Huaiyuan was reluctant to leave: "Brother, if you have the chance, you must come to the Prince's Mansion to see me!"
Jiang Huai'an had always been helpless against Jiang Huaiyuan, so he reached out and touched her head and promised her: "I will do it when I have the chance."
So Ruan Wanwan took Jiang Huaiyuan, who was looking back three times, downstairs and onto the carriage.
Jiang Huai'an watched them go away. Even far away, Jiang Huaiyuan leaned out of the carriage and waved goodbye to him.
The carriage drove very fast, the pedestrians and the scenery on the roadside became blurred, and the Prince's Mansion was right in front of him.
As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the Prince's Mansion, Ruan Wanwan and Jiang Huaiyuan's personal maids helped them out of the carriage.
From across the hall, there were faint sounds of crying and sobbing.
Ruan Wanwan slowly stepped forward to the threshold and immediately saw the two people kneeling at the door of the hall.
Although one of them is kneeling, his posture is still upright, as if he is worshiping a Buddha statue, while the other is kneeling on the ground and swaying, wishing he could collapse to the ground.
Ruan Wanwan felt a slight headache. She looked helplessly at Xiao Huxi and Lan Ziyuan, and sighed in her heart why they were causing trouble one after another just by going out to attend a banquet.
It's fine now. If something happens, I will just go back to the palace and cry, waiting for me to finish them off.
A wave of boredom rose up in Ruan Wanwan's heart.
So she turned her head and said to Jiang Huaiyuan who was standing aside: "Go and invite Bei Liangye back and tell him that someone in the house has committed a crime. I have a headache now and let him handle it."
Jiang Huaiyuan didn't know what happened. It was so serious that the prince needed to deal with it personally.
But it was rare for her to see Ruan Wanwan's serious face. She shivered violently and did not dare to ask any more questions. She only thought about Xiao Huxi. Lan Ziyuan was afraid that something would happen today.
So Jiang Huaiyuan got on the carriage again and went to where the prince usually worked.
After Jiang Huaiyuan left, only Ruan Wanwan, Xiao Huxi, and Lan Ziyuan were left in the hall.
Lan Ziyuan carefully observed Ruan Wanwan's expression, and then made a small report to Ruan Wanwan.
"Crown Princess, you don't know how outrageous things can be done at the banquet after you leave!"
After hearing this, Ruan Wanwan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Oh, I'm curious, what can they do to you?"
Lan Ziyuan originally thought that they were all from the prince's palace. As the principal concubine, she would definitely support them and the concubines, but she did not expect her to have such an attitude. She was choked for a moment, but she quickly reacted and continued.
"Just after you left, they first mocked me. Xiao Huxi couldn't stand it, so he went up and said a few words to me. As a result, we were both targeted."
"What did they say that made you so angry?"
"It means that I, Lan Ziyuan, am a servant, but now I can sit in this position. I don't know how many men are helping me behind the scenes. The implication is that I rely on my beauty to seduce men." Lan Ziyuan is skilled.
"Retelling" the previous scene.
"Crown Princess, you must make the decision for me!" Lan Ziyuan kept kneeling aside, crying like a tearful person while telling her story.
After saying this, Lan Ziyuan's expression immediately became excited again, and she couldn't help but nod her head, as if she was immersed in the situation and being bullied by everyone all over again.
"Well, what next?" Ruan Wanwan pondered for a moment and continued to ask.
"And then..." Lan Ziyuan didn't know how to continue, so she just made some strange noises.
Ruan Wanwan saw that she was speechless and just crying on the side, while Xiao Huxi was silent on the side. She knew that she couldn't blame someone just because of his words.
Moreover, Xiao Huxi has been in poor health recently, so she ignored Lan Ziyuan's crying, turned to Xiao Huxi and said: "This banquet lasted for a long time, and you are tired too, so go down and rest first, don't
I’m kneeling here.”
After hearing this, Xiao Huxi stood up, bowed slowly to Ruan Wanwan, and walked into his room.
On the other side, Jiang Huaiyuan finally arrived at Beiliang Ye's place of work and met Beiliang Ye.
She jumped off the carriage and rushed into the room, running so fast like a wild horse that even the guard at the door had no time to stop her.
"Hey! You! You are not allowed to come in or out at will!" The guard chased behind Jiang Huaiyuan and said out of breath.
Jiang Huaiyuan had no time to pay attention to him now. She opened the door directly and shouted inside: "The prince is not good, something big has happened!"
Bei Liangye didn't expect Jiang Huaiyuan to suddenly appear in his office, shouting without regard for etiquette. He was taken aback and asked hurriedly: "What's going on?"
"Xiao Huxi, Lan Ziyuan and Eryang seem to have been bullied at the banquet. Now for some reason, they just kneel at the door and cry, Crown Princess, please go back and take a look."
After hearing this, Beiliangye had no choice but to put down what he was doing and follow her to the Prince's Mansion.
When he entered the mansion, he saw Lan Ziyuan crying in the middle of the hall.
