Chapter forty-one shot

"Why is Miss Xianyu coming?" Seeing that Xianyu, who was cold in normal times, he couldn't help but step forward to show his attentiveness.

"Miss hasn't been thinking about food these days. I thought that the lady likes to eat plum blossom cake, but we can't go out, so I asked this little girl who delivered the food to help me go out to buy it. I'm waiting to satisfy my cravings for the ladies and the others! I just happened to see you..." She looked at these people with a pretentious attitude.

Xianyu seemed to be accusing them. The boy who had previously spoken for Chen Yuan hurriedly said, "Sister Xianyu misunderstood. We are just joking with her, so let her go out."

"Wait, the lady is in the house?"

"Of course, I just came out of the house, and Zhong Ling was still with her, so I asked my brothers to give it a convenience." After saying that, Xianyu took out some broken silver and handed it to them, "These are the ladies who give me some tea."

When the group of people saw this, they were embarrassed to check it out again. I thought that Xianyu would not deceive them. After all, she was also from the Prime Minister's Mansion, so the leader waved and asked Chen Yuan to go out.

Chen Yuan was not grateful to Yanyu, and left without any hesitation. But she was a little surprised. Why didn't Yanyu expose herself? Why did she dare to disobey the young master like this when she helped her hide the guards? No matter what, Chen Yu's help this time made Chen Yuan feel a little more sincere to her.

Chen Yuan hurried to Tingyin Pavilion, wanting to see Aunt Tang, but who knew that when he got there, the manager Zhao Zhong said that Qiutang had been away for several days. This manager Zhao was the one who had been imprisoned by Xiangcheng before. The prison guard was not vague and beat and scolded him. Perhaps he didn't ask anything from him, but he was released after being detained for a few days. Qiutang left him with his inner support for Chen Yuan, and went to Xihua himself. Chen Yuan was puzzled and wanted to ask Aunt Tang where he went, but Zhao Zhong said he didn't know. When he would come back, Zhao Zhong still couldn't explain clearly.

Chen Yuan sighed, thinking that maybe Aunt Tang had concealed her whereabouts in case of another change here, so she did not leave any message. Chen Yuan was a little depressed when she saw anyone. After all, she finally came out, but she had no gains. She wanted to find a way with Aunt Tang, but who had thought that Aunt Tang was not here? The guy here asked again and didn't know. It was really difficult to deal with this.

Fortunately, Zhao Zhong was also his own person. Chen Yuan thought that after he went back this time, it would be difficult to have the chance to come out again, so he asked him to find a way to contact him. He said he would try to take over the work of delivering vegetables, and it would be much more convenient to pass messages in the future. Chen Yuan agreed quite well, so he stopped staying for more and went back.

I thought that going out quietly would not cause any trouble, but I didn't expect that Chen Yuan had just left Tingyin Pavilion and saw Princess Wenling. Unlike in the past, she was the only one this time. I wonder if Yongyihou didn't accompany her out with her or if he went there.

Wen Ling was playing with her hair in front of her while bored shopping in the market. Perhaps she disliked the fact that she was not happy enough to follow her, so she was just wandering alone, with no guards behind her.

Chen Yuan was afraid that she would find out, so she had to follow Wen Ling far away, not daring to go too close.

While walking, suddenly a person in front of him was riding a fast horse, roaring around the middle of the road. Wenling saw an old man carrying a load and being squeezed into the middle of the road by a panicked passerby. He was not very skilled and was about to be hit by a horse. She rushed over to stop the rider and shouted: "Rareless, how can you walk like this on the street!"

"Get out!" The man was stopped and suddenly became angry. He started to curse and raised the whip in his hand.

"Do you know who I am?" Wen Ling was not polite, and grabbed the whip and the aura of a chivalrous woman suddenly became.

"No matter who you are, if the emergency documents sent to the Princess' Mansion are delayed, I will ask you!"

When Wen Ling heard this, the corner of his mouth stagnated and his tone immediately weakened, "Then, you don't know how to take a detour! Why are you glaring? Why don't you leave quickly? I've delayed the documents. How many heads do you have?"

The person was so angry that he was too lazy to pay attention to her, so he walked away.

Wen Ling quickly pulled the old man to the side of the road, whispered a few words and watched him leave.

Chen Yuan saw all this, and she liked Wen Ling more and more. Although Wen Ling always ridiculed her and caused trouble for her from time to time, after this incident, Wen Ling was not bad by nature.

It was just strange that the young master was not in Lindongcheng, why was the prince still here? But she couldn't help but think about this, and she didn't want to cause trouble, so she quietly turned around and went back. When she got home, Chen Yuan called Zhong Ling and Xianyu, thanking Xianyu for helping her today, and secondly, she wanted to test how sincere Yanyu was, why did she help them at this critical moment.

When Zhong Ling saw Chen Yuan coming back with the plum blossom cake, he started eating there happily.

"It's really thanks to your help today." Chen Yuan said straight to the point.

Xianyu looked at her and bowed, "This is what I should do, the lady needs no thanks."

"Don't you ask why I went out?"

Xianyu hesitated for a moment, "Miss Qiaozhuang must be a problem when she goes out. I am the lady's maid, and helping the lady is the duty, so why bother to ask more questions? Besides, if the lady wants me to know, she will naturally let me know."

Chen Yuan looked at her with approval and asked again: "You must know the current situation... If you try your best to help me this time, aren't you afraid that I will do anything that is not conducive to the young master or Yu Jing when I go out?"

It seemed as if she had asked her, she was silent for a moment, then looked up at Chen Yuan, "To be honest, I am really afraid."

"Then you still..."

"But I know that the lady will not do anything that will harm the young master or the Ying Mansion. As for the rest, I am not a saint and I can't worry too much."

Xianyu explained calmly and sincerely. Indeed, Xianyu would not care whether what Chen Yuan wanted to do had a great relationship with Yu Jing. Chen Yuan smiled at her, "Thank you, since you treat me so sincerely, I can also feel at ease to have an important task to you!"

"Miss, just say whatever orders you have."

Although there was no sign of joy on Yanyu's face, her expression always made Chen Yuan feel at ease. "There is something I'm a little strange, but I haven't left home recently, and I don't know the whole story. You often go out, I don't know if you have heard of it... I heard that the Xiangcheng Princess has been involved in government affairs in the court. Why didn't she leave Beijing with the young master this time?"

When Xianyu heard this, she frowned slightly, "I heard that the Queen Mother is not in good health. The princess may be staying in the palace to serve the disease, so she didn't go out now."

"Oh? The Queen Mother is sick?"

Xianyu nodded, "I went home a while ago, and I heard from the old lady that the empress dowager has not been very good since the summer. The heat has become severe recently. I guess she has been having trouble with this period of time." At the end, Xianyu looked at Chen Yuan in surprise, "Did the lady run into the princess today?"

"That's not that. I almost ran into Princess Wenling, by the way," Chen Yuan turned around and saw Zhong Ling eating there as if no one was around, and smiled, "Part some of the plum blossom cakes to Mo Zhu and the others."

Yanyu stopped him, "Miss, don't forget how this plum blossom cake came about, let's forget it."

Chen Yuan smiled slightly and didn't say anything, but she was happy that she had read the wrong person. If she really had a good intention to divide the plum blossom cake, it would inevitably make people with interest see something. It is a good thing for Yanyu to think carefully like this. In the past, Yuxiu was around her and often reminded herself of some things that were not thoughtful. Now she has a Yanyu again, which is a kind of compensation. Yanyu didn't stay too much, and after saying a few words, she left the house.

"Why did the lady feel better after saying a few words to her?" Zhong Ling asked foolishly, with a look of flattery. Although she stayed aside and didn't go out, Chen Yuan and Yanyu didn't speak loudly, and she didn't listen carefully.

Chen Yuan looked at the little greedy cat helplessly. Only Zhong Ling's simple appearance could make her stop thinking about those complicated and worrying things for the time being.

A few days later, Zhong Ling was serving Chen Yuan to serve lunch, four simple side dishes, a plate of lotus pods and tofu, a plate of jade bamboo shoots and ferns, a plate of three fresh dragon and phoenix balls, a bowl of one-grade official swallow soup, and a bowl of fragrant and glutinous rice. Not only does the smell be light and fragrant, but just looking at the tender yellow and green color makes people's appetite greatly. Chen Yuan eats it very well.

Mo Zhu looked aside and smiled, "Recently, the food delivery guys are getting more and more happy with the lady. Not only is the food fresh, but the combination also makes people feel refreshed!"

Chen Yuan smiled and asked, "It's been a long time since I went out, so it's rare to be able to eat such dishes. I wonder if it's still peaceful outside recently?"

"Taiping is naturally peaceful. There is no way to fight a war. However, recently, the streets and alleys of Lindongcheng have been sang, saying that our dynasty launched a war to anger the gods, and the disasters were caused to the Queen Mother. The war continued, and the Queen Mother did not heal. When Princess Xiangcheng heard about it, she was furious." Mo Zhu said it quickly and said it all.

Chen Yuan and Zhong Ling looked at each other, and the corners of their lips curled up slightly. It seemed that Zhao Zhong was doing things very well. He asked him to take a walk outside and there was a movement so soon.
