Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved
Chapter 234 Sima Zhao’s Heart
Ever since Xiao Yizhen stopped Shen Zhaoyan from marrying Yan Ci into the palace, Shen Zhaoyan has been ignoring Xiao Yizhen.
Xiao Yizhen was also strong-willed. Even though Shen Zhaoyan treated her coldly, she was not in a hurry. She would walk around the garden and look at the flowers in the palace every day. When she saw that there was only one kind of flower left in the huge garden, her face was full of pride.
She couldn't control where Shen Zhaoyan's heart was, but she could control what flowers there were in the palace.
As long as Xiao Yizhen is still the princess, no one can enter the Prince Xiang's Palace without her.
However, it is inevitable that some people want to use her to enter Prince Xiang's Palace.
Just as I was thinking of this, I heard the wheezing sound of Grandma Sun coming closer and closer.
"Princess, Princess, the two people from the Prince of Changping's Mansion are here again."
Xiao Yizhen sneered, "A guest is a guest, Ma'am, prepare some tea."
Nanny Sun looked at Xiao Yizhen's calm expression and felt anxious, but she still followed the order to prepare tea. As soon as she left, a little maid led a pair of sisters over.
A laugh like a yellow oriole came over, "Yizhen, we're here to play with you."
When Xiao Yizhen turned around, she saw sisters Lin Zijin and Lin Zichan walking towards her hand in hand, and a smile instantly appeared on her face.
"Zijin and Zichan, you are finally here. I am so bored staying alone in the mansion."
"Then we came at the right time." Lin Zijin smiled and pulled her sister to sit at the small table next to Xiao Yizhen.
Xiao Yizhen also took a seat, and all three of them had smiles on their faces.
Nanny Sun came over with tea, served it, and then stepped aside.
Looking at the two sisters, he rolled his eyes in hatred.
Everyone knows what the two sisters are planning.
I haven't seen them come so often before, but ever since they heard in the palace that the prince was going to take a new wife, they have come frequently. They said they came to visit the princess and chat with her, but every other sentence they spoke was about the prince, and the rest of the time they were asking about taking a new wife.
This is Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone on the road knows it.
As expected, the two sisters Lin Zijin had just sat down and hadn't even taken a sip of tea. Thinking of what Xiao Yizhen had just said about her being in the mansion, Lin Zichan couldn't help but ask, "Why is Sister Yizhen alone in the mansion? Isn't the prince here?"
It sounded like she was concerned about herself, but after Xiao Yizhen saw through the two people's thoughts, she realized that Lin Zichan's focus was on the second half of the sentence.
Xiao Yizhen curled her lips, lowered her eyes and drank tea, "The prince, he is very busy and is often not in the mansion."
After hearing this, when Xiao Yizhen looked up again, she saw that Lin Zijin and Lin Zichan looked unhappy. They seemed to feel that they had made a wasted trip.
Xiao Yizhen sneered in her heart, but did not expose them, and continued: "But the prince is a very family-oriented person. Although he is very busy every day, he will definitely return home to eat at twilight hour. Judging from the time, the prince will be back soon."
Lin Zijin and her sister were both delighted. "Really? The prince will come back to the mansion for dinner?"
"How can I lie to you? It's getting late now, why don't you stay and have dinner together?"
The two people who were just hoping for this quickly responded, "Okay, okay."
Xiao Yizhen immediately told Nanny Sun, "Madam, prepare more dishes today and a jar of plum wine. My two sisters and I will have a couple of drinks."
Nanny Sun concealed the reluctance on her face and took people downstairs to prepare dinner.
Xiao Yizhen accompanied Lin Zijin and her sister to chat in the pavilion.
Perhaps knowing that she would be able to meet the prince soon, Lin Zijin did not continue the topic of Shen Zhaoyan this time, but instead talked about Xiao Yizhui.
"It's been a while since Yizhu's wedding, but I've noticed that since the wedding, there has been no movement in the Marquis's Mansion regarding the betrothal payment and the date of marriage."
Xiao Yizhen said calmly, "Something went wrong with the wedding ceremony, so my father wanted to keep a low profile and not hold a grand ceremony to avoid causing jealousy and causing trouble for my sister. The betrothal gifts have actually been sent to the prime minister's residence, and the wedding date has been set."
"Is that so? Then when is the wedding date? Don't forget to send us the invitation. We sisters will go and ask for a glass of wedding wine when the time comes."
"Don't worry, I will never forget you. I will send you the invitation another day."
The three of them laughed and talked about going to attend the wedding. Nanny Sun had already prepared dinner and came over to invite the three of them to come and have dinner.
When they arrived at the main hall, they looked at the table full of food, but did not see Shen Zhaoyan. Before they could ask any questions, Xiao Yizhen asked them to sit down.
I had already agreed to stay for dinner, so I couldn't leave at this time. I could only sit down and eat with my sister.
Xiao Yizhen was particularly enthusiastic today, pouring wine and serving food to them. Although Lin Zijin and her sister did not see Shen Zhaoyan, they were very satisfied after the sumptuous dinner.
Especially the jar of plum wine, which tasted delicious. They drank several glasses in succession until their faces turned red and they were slightly tipsy, and then they reluctantly put down their glasses.
After eating and drinking, Lin Zijin and her sister left the palace and got on the carriage back to the Prince's Palace.
It was almost the hour of Si at this time, and a half moon was hanging high in the sky, casting light on the ground.
The carriage was traveling on a quiet road. The two people in the carriage had fallen asleep due to being drunk and did not notice that the carriage was not going to the Prince's Mansion.
It was not until the next day that people from the Prince's Mansion came and knocked on the door of the Prince Xiang's Mansion.
The person who came was the old steward of the Prince's Mansion. He looked at the servant of the mansion and explained his purpose. The servant could not make a decision and could only go in to report to the princess.
Xiao Yizhen had just gotten up and was about to go to dinner when she saw Nanny Sun and someone else walking in. The person bowed politely.
"Greetings, Princess Xiang. I am the housekeeper of the Prince of Changping's mansion. I would like to ask if the two young ladies from our mansion came to the mansion to visit the princess yesterday?"
"Here they are. I even invited them to have dinner before they left. What's wrong? Did something happen?"
The housekeeper shook his head, looking somewhat panicked, "To be honest, our young lady left the house yesterday afternoon and has not returned yet."
Xiao Yizhen stood up in surprise, "What's going on? I saw my two sisters get on your carriage yesterday."
The butler cupped his hands and said, "I understand. I will go back and report to the prince and his wife. Please keep this news confidential."
"Don't worry. If the two sisters return home, please let me know. I am also very worried."
"Okay, I'll take my leave now."
After seeing off the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion, Nanny Sun returned to Xiao Yizhen and finally a smile appeared on her face.
"Princess, what should we do next?"
Xiao Yizhen looked outside with a smile on her face. The sun had just risen outside, and the coolness of the night had not completely dissipated. She thought that the two sisters' reputations would be ruined if they stayed outside all night.
"You don't have to do anything to avoid attracting such trouble to us. We can just wait to introduce a good in-law family to our two sisters later."
Nanny Sun raised her lips and lowered her head, "Yes, Princess."
