"Princess, Your Majesty happened to be passing by. When I saw Princess, you and Lin Huwei talking here..." Qingtang was a little anxious.
"It doesn't matter." Bai Wanrou already knew it in her heart and knew that Qingtang couldn't stop Chen Ruzhi, so she didn't blame her.
Sure enough, Chen Ruzhi, who came over angrily, was very angry when he saw the two masters and servants, and said indiscriminately: "Bai Wanrou, I don't know that you are so hungry and thirsty that you even dare to attack the guards around me.
! Mr. Bai Marquis has really taught him a good daughter who is shameless!"
After that, he took Lin Feng and left, leaving Bai Wanrou and Qingtang standing there.
"Princess, how could you let the prince say this to you? You could explain it just now." Qingtang watched Chen Ruzhi leave with Lin Feng, and couldn't help but defend her.
"Is there any explanation? He doesn't care in the first place. What he cares about is Yue Yi who is pregnant with his child."
Bai Wanrou's expression was indifferent, and her heart was filled with despair towards Chen Ru, so it didn't matter whether she could explain or not.
"But..." Qingtang wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Bai Wanrou. In the end, he had to curl his lips and reluctantly followed her back to the yard.
The night is like thick inkstone, too deep to be dissolved.
Chen Ruzhi took Lin Feng away without any intention of punishing him. He took him to the study and questioned him about the conversation between Bai Wanrou and him just now.
"The princess asked Beizhi about the prince being drugged back then. Speaking of which, Beizhi was very confused. Who was plotting against the prince back then? Could the death of the old prince be related to this incident?"
Lin Feng always felt that the incident of the prince being drugged was not simple. For a moment, he even suspected that the death of the old prince was related to this incident.
"I will find out what happened back then. You can go down first and don't mention this matter to anyone." Chen Ruzhi was suspicious, but he didn't want to talk too much.
The next day was the day when Bai Wanrou returned home. She really didn't use the palace's money to buy anything to bring to her father when she returned home. This surprised Chen Ruzhi, but she ignored it.
"Isn't the prince busy today? If you can't get away, you don't have to follow me."
Bai Wanrou, who had already sat in the carriage and read for a while, and was about to let the coachman drive to the Hou Mansion after Qingtang and Luzhu got on the carriage, was lukewarm when she saw Chen Ru opening the curtain and sitting in next to him as if there was no one around.
ridicule.
Chen Ruzhi, who had just sat in the carriage, raised his eyebrows subconsciously when he heard this. He glanced at Bai Wanrou who was sitting there holding a book and reading. He instantly felt that he was a little embarrassed and said with some displeasure:
"I am not busy today."
Hearing this, Bai Wanrou just looked at him with a half-smile, then raised her eyes to the scenery outside the window.
Qingtang opened the curtain and was a little surprised to see Chen Ruzhi sitting on the side of the carriage with an unhappy expression on his face, exuding a cold aura, while Bai Wanrou was holding a book with an indifferent expression and reading with gusto, as if there was nothing in the carriage.
It's like there is no second person.
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you hurry up and get in." When she noticed that Qingtang had arrived at the carriage, Bai Wanrou reached out and put the book aside, signaling her to hurry up and get in the carriage.
Qingtang and Qingtang, who were still hesitant outside the carriage, looked at each other. Finally, still amidst this speechless atmosphere, she slowly got on the carriage and sat down next to her princess.
After everyone had arrived, the carriage began to drive slowly towards the Hou Mansion. Neither Bai Wanrou nor Chen Ruzhi spoke to each other along the way. The atmosphere in the carriage could be said to be very depressing, which made Qingtang nervous.
He didn't even dare to take a breath.
Fortunately, the Jian'an Prince's Mansion was not too far away from the Hou Mansion. Otherwise, Qingtang really didn't know if she would cry because of the atmosphere around the two of them.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report for my humble duty." Not long after the carriage left, Chen Ruzhi's bodyguard Lin Yi suddenly appeared near the carriage with a very panicked tone.
"Stop." Chen Ruzhi quickly opened the curtain and got out of the carriage without waiting for it to stop.
Bai Wanrou, who was sitting in the carriage, smiled sarcastically after he got off the carriage. She opened the curtain and took a look outside. She found that he had immediately got on the horse and left. She reached out and put down the curtain and said to the coachman: "Don't worry about the prince, let's continue.
Walk."
When Bai Wanrou opened the curtain of the carriage just now, Qingtang also saw Chen Ru leaving on horseback. He became more and more dissatisfied with Prince Jian'an. He glanced at Bai Wanrou who had an indifferent face, and finally opened his mouth and said nothing.
The carriage continued to drive forward. Even though Qingtang was dissatisfied, he couldn't help but dozed off due to the rocking of the carriage. It wasn't until the carriage stopped in front of the Marquis' Mansion that he suddenly heard the words "Welcome the Princess" from the crowd outside.
Wake up.
He quickly opened the curtain and stepped out of the carriage, came to Bai Wanrou and stood there pretending to be nothing, waited until a group of people had finished the ceremony, and then followed Bai Wanrou into the Hou Mansion.
When Bai Wanrou got off the carriage just now, Bai Qingting realized that she was coming back alone this time. The expression on her face was not very good-looking, but because there were so many servants outside the Hou Mansion, she didn't show it.
It's very obvious.
When Bai Wanrou and Qingtang came to the main hall of the Hou Mansion, Bai Qingting first dismissed the servants waiting in the living room, and then began to scold Chen Ruzhi in front of his father and sister:
"Dad, how dare Chen Ruzhi treat Wanrou like this? Even if he treated her like that on the second day after we got married, why did he ask her to come back alone today? Isn't this a joke for people to see in our Hou family?"
Bai Fengqi, who had been silent since he entered the door, looked a little moved when he heard what his son said. However, he wanted to hear what his daughter thought, so he did not immediately answer Bai Qingting's words. Instead, he
He glanced at Bai Wanrou.
"Dad! Are you listening to your son? Don't look at your sister. Don't you know what she is thinking? If Wanrou hadn't insisted on her own way, how could she have ended up like this? Dad, you should go find the emperor
, let him make the decision for his sister, our eldest lady in the Hou family cannot let others bully her like this!" Bai Qingting saw that his father ignored him and instead looked at his sister.
I am really afraid that my father will care about Chen Ruzhi just as much as my sister Bai Wanrou. In the end, even if my sister has a hard time, they, as family members, can't do anything for her, which makes people feel angry!
"Brother! Calm down. Daddy, don't listen to my brother. There is no need to go to the palace to find the emperor to support your daughter. My daughter knows this well, not to mention that the emperor also issued an order some time ago to correct Princess Jian'an's behavior.
Name, now my daughter’s status in the palace is not what it was before, this has already helped my daughter a lot.”
She really didn't want her father to go to the palace again for her marriage, so Bai Wanrou first stopped her brother, and then told Bai Fengqi that her position was now stable and he didn't need to go to the palace anymore.
"Wanrou, have you forgotten what Chen Ruzhi did to you back then? How can you swallow this breath? The more I think about it, the angrier I get! When will you be more decisive in doing things?"
After hearing what his sister said, Bai Qingting was furious. He really couldn't understand how she could bear it so much. He felt very angry just thinking about it.
"Brother, it's not that I'm not decisive in doing things. Think about it, if my father went to plead with the emperor on my behalf, wouldn't many people know that I was not doing well when I married into the prince's palace? Besides, my father is old.
I don’t want dad to worry about me anymore.”
Bai Wanrou knew that her brother couldn't bear to see her being wronged in the palace, but she also had many things to worry about.
"Wanrou, my father is very pleased that you can say such things. Now that you have grown up and are married, my father can no longer keep you by his side. You can support yourself outside. Qian
Don't be wronged, if you really feel wronged, then come home, dad and your brother will support you."
When he said this, Bai Fengqi was very happy, with a trace of tears still in the corners of his eyes. Thinking back to the fact that the daughter he had been protecting for so many years was now able to stand alone, he felt somewhat moved in his heart.
Bai Qingting on the side looked at his father's appearance and closed his mouth.
"Dad, there is something I don't understand about my daughter. You and Chen Ruzhi are enemies, why do you still let your daughter get married like this? Aren't you afraid that your daughter will have a difficult time after getting married?" Bai Wanrou, who suddenly thought of something, looked at her father and asked such a question
question.
This made Bai Fengqi smile helplessly and said: "Isn't it because you love that boy to death? Otherwise, do you think dad is really willing to marry you? You are the apple of dad's eye, the treasure he has held in his hands since childhood.
."
Listening to her father say this, Bai Wanrou couldn't help but blush, and she was relieved that her father allowed her to marry Chen Ruzhi. Her father was still the same as before, thinking about everything for her. This chapter has been completed!
