Marry the second man to be a princess after wearing a book

Shen Yang returned to the room where he had been away for half a month. Before he sat down and said a few words to Ru Xin, Lan Xi came.

"I lost weight." Lan Xi walked around Shen Yang, and concluded: "The young master must not have taken good care of himself, and he did before."

The rambling concern made Shen Yang feel embarrassed, his face flushed slightly, Ruxin couldn't get in the words, and thoughtfully left.

In the past, when Shen Yang came home, his grandfather would not show his concern obviously, but the meals that Shen Yang liked every day were all expressing his concern.

Grandpa has a peaceful personality and rarely gets angry. Growing up in such an environment, Shen Yang has a particularly gentle and restrained temperament, and because he studied medicine, he has a more benevolent heart than ordinary people.

Staying in the poorly equipped laboratory, although Shen Yang found peace for a long time, when he slept peacefully at night, he couldn't help but miss the excitement of staying with everyone.

Hearing Lan Xi's nagging again, after the embarrassment, there is warmth in my heart, maybe this is the feeling of my family.

Shen Yang listened to Lan Xi counting herself down from head to toe, and was dragged to change a piece of clothes and hair. On the way to change clothes, Lan Xi talked about what happened in the palace for half a month.

Not everyone believed Shen Yang's complaint, especially the second butler Qi Dun, who repeatedly inquired, but was stopped by the first butler.

Lan Xi didn't know why King Bin suddenly hid Shen Yang for half a month, but for Shen Yang, with the help of the housekeeper, she and Ru Xian set up the Liuxiangyuan, without showing timidity in front of anyone.

Shen Yang looked at Lan Xi in the mirror, and sighed, "Auntie has worked hard."

"As long as the young master is safe, the slaves can work a hundred times harder." After finishing speaking, Lan Xi thought of another thing.

"After the Sun family finished the funeral, they have been thanking the young master face to face. Recently, they have come to the palace to inquire. The servants did not know when the young master would return, so they refused. Do you want to see the Sun family?"

"Okay, if the Sun family wants to give a gift, my aunt has to help me stop it."

Shen Yang blinked at Lan Xi playfully, which made Lan Xi burst into laughter.

"Young master is used to teasing slaves."

Shen Yang smiled. After getting dressed, Shen Yang walked out of the inner room and sat at the table. The tea was poured by the little maid from before. She didn't dare to look up at Shen Yang, but she poured the tea with a steady hand.

After the little maid finished pouring the tea, she retreated, behaved properly.

Lan Xi nodded in satisfaction, and raised her mouth with Shen Yang, who nodded to show that she understood.

After drinking tea, Shen Yang went out and saw Yifeng coming back with a few guards.

"princess."

Shen Yang saw that one of the guards behind Yifeng was very familiar, it was the one who had broken his arm in Shen's residence before, but he did not expect to be transferred to Liuxiangyuan.

But Shen Yang didn't delve into it, and turned his eyes away to ask Yifeng.

"How did you come back from outside?"

"Recently, a thief in the capital has stolen many officials' treasures. The chief steward ordered his subordinates to lead patrols."

Hearing this, something flashed through Shen Yang's mind, without thinking about it, he waved his hands to make them retreat.

In the afternoon, when the Sun family visited, they brought nothing precious—but an umbrella.

The ribs of the umbrella are made of good materials, exuding a woody fragrance. There are a few lines of words written on the light-colored umbrella surface, one of which Shen Yang likes very much.

——If you are not indifferent, you will not be able to show your ambitions, and if you are not peaceful, you will not be able to reach far.

It originated from the "Book of Commandments" written by Zhuge Liang for his son. It is to warn future generations not to waste time and wear down willpower day by day. Only with perseverance can we reach the other shore.

"Caomin has nothing to repay the kindness of the princess. The only thing is that the craftsmanship of making umbrellas is good. The inscription on it is specially written by Caomin from the scholar in the next city. I hope the princess will accept it."

The person who spoke was the son of the deceased old lady of the Sun family. His broken leg has mostly healed, but he still walks with a limp after experiencing this in middle age.

At this time, he was very cautious standing in front of the hall. The clean ground allowed him to see his rough face clearly, and seeing the patched cloth shoes, he felt more and more dirty, and rubbed his sweaty hands on his trouser legs.

Shen Yang took the umbrella and looked left and right, he liked it very much, he saw that the son of the Sun family was nervous, he said with a smile: "There is no need to be formal, the gift is accepted by the princess, thank you."

The honest Sun family son's palms were full of sweat. Hearing Shen Yang's words, he hurriedly replied: "It is a great honor for the Sun family to accept the princess."

It is rare for a rough person like him to be received by Princess Bin in person, and once in his life, the son of the Sun family looked up at Shen Yang, and lowered his head in shame.

The princess looks like a fairy.

And to help their family when they were desperate, compared with the princess, the son of the Sun family felt that his white clothes were not clean enough.

Seeing this, Shen Yang changed the subject, "How is the child recently?"

"Thank you, Princess, for your concern. The child has recovered, and he still wants to see Princess Wang." Speaking of his own child, the son of the Sun family relaxed a little.

"There is a hundred-year-old ginseng plant in the mansion, and it is used to nourish the child." Shen Yang ordered people to fetch it and delivered it to the son of the Sun family.

The concubine's reward cannot be denied, so the son of the Sun family had no choice but to leave with a brocade box containing ginseng.

After seeing off the Sun family, Shen Yang opened the umbrella and looked carefully, especially the few lines of writing on the umbrella.

Lan Xi said: "Young master really like this umbrella?"

"Could it be fake?" Shen Yang had a smile on his face.

This is the first time he has received a thank you gift from someone he has helped. It is not just a thank you gift, but also allows Shen Yang to see the hope of changing the plot.

Maybe he can protect Aunt Zhao and Lan Xi in the future...

Thinking of this, Shen Yang couldn't help laughing, causing Lan Xi to ask a question, but Shen Yang shook his head and didn't answer.

He became more and more greedy, at first he only wanted to protect himself, but now, Shen Yang wanted to protect more people, and he was also greedy for the warmth of getting along with everyone.

The sun shines through the translucent umbrella and reflects into the amber eyes.

Soon it was time for the Youth Seeking Party held by General Wu's youngest daughter.

The location is in a courtyard in the suburbs, backed by mountains, surrounded by green water, and the scenery is pleasant.

When Shen Yang got off the carriage, he could smell the smell of soil and green plants. He only brought Yifeng and Ruxian for this trip.

A group of people walked to the gate of the other courtyard, Ruxian handed over the invitation card, and then they were welcomed in.

It was still early, and the servants from the other courtyard brought up pastries and tea to satisfy Shen Yang's hunger. Shen Yang ate a few pieces, which were not as delicious as those in the Wangfu, so he asked Ruxian to try it too.

Although Ruxian let go a little in front of Shen Yang, she was still a bit cautious, and after Fu was behind, she carefully picked up a piece, savored it carefully and said:

"Compared with Wangfu, these pastries are loose and too sweet."

Shen Yang nodded approvingly, but what Ruxian said next made him feel relieved.

"But this is as it should be. The pastry in the princess' courtyard is made by the best pastry chef in the city specially invited by the prince."

"When did this happen?"

"At the beginning, the servant saw that the princess liked to eat candied fruit, so she bought some more. The butler asked a few words after seeing it. After that, the prince invited the pastry chef to the house."

Hearing this, Shen Yang's eyes widened slightly. At that time, he stayed in the secret room for a long time. When he was tired, he liked to eat some sweet pastries to relieve his fatigue. He also lamented the delicate and delicious taste of Wangfu's pastries. He did not expect such twists and turns in it.

After Ruxian finished speaking, she added another sentence, "The prince likes the princess very much."

It seemed to remind Shen Yang of something.

But Shen Yang didn't think about that, he just thought that Bin Wang was doing it for the sake of helping him detoxify.

"I've been busy all morning, Ruxian, you and Yifeng should have some pastries together."

Yifeng said: "This subordinate is not hungry."

Ruxian then said: "My concubine's wound hasn't healed yet, so I need to eat more."

The two of them directly silenced Shen Yang, and they were full of doubts while eating the pastries. Why have the attitudes of the people around them become a little strange recently.

The pastry was too sweet and greasy, Shen Yang couldn't eat any more after eating a few pieces, so he picked up his teacup and poured it down.

Suddenly there was movement outside the gate, it sounded like someone was arguing.

Shen Yang put down the teacup and took Yifeng and Ruxian to check.

Outside the gate, two girls stood in front of a carriage and glared at each other. One of the girls in blue was tightly protecting the girl in lotus root pink clothes behind her.

"County Master Qinning, don't bully me too much! Qiaoqiao is about to marry the Eighth Prince, and she is no longer the person you could bully me before!"

"Wu Pingting, the county lord doesn't understand! Is that scumbag worthy of your protection? Shamelessly hooking up with the Eighth Prince's brother has caused the Eighth Prince's brother to lose all face!"

After some conversation, Shen Yang understood the identities of these people.

The girl in blue who protects the people behind her is none other than General Wu's youngest daughter: Wu Pingting, who is also a close friend of Liang Hou's granddaughter Liang Qiao.

On the opposite side is the head of Qinning County: Shangguan Jin, who seldom comes to the capital. This time is for the ancestor worship ceremony two months later. Unexpectedly, there will be rumors spreading between the Eighth Prince and Liang Qiao.

The Lord of Qinning County and Concubine Ru are cousins, so they naturally favor the Eighth Prince and hate Liang Qiao, who corrupted the Eighth Prince's character.

Shen Yang looked at Liang Qiao, who was at the center of the topic. The latter obediently stood in front of Wu Pingting, who was defending herself, with her head lowered, revealing a white buttock.

This kind of weak posture is a pity, but unfortunately most of the people present are women, so they don't like this.

As a guest, Shen Yang naturally wouldn't intervene in the fight between the ladies of the official family, he hid inside the door and looked out.

As things intensified, a carriage was parked by the side of the road, and a lady lifted the curtain to look at the center of the quarrel, her beautiful eyes fixed, she got out of the carriage and walked over with the help of her personal maid.

"Pingting!"

The person who came was General Wu Mingmei's wife, who was also Wu Pingting's mother.

As soon as she heard her mother's voice, Wu Pingting calmed down immediately, lowered her head, and shouted obediently.

"Mother."

Liang Qiao, who was hiding behind her, clenched her fists.

Mrs. Wu's slender eyebrows are slightly raised, and her pair of sparkling peach blossom eyes are breathtaking. Even in middle age, she still looks like a peony in full bloom, with brilliant colors and a fragrance that has been brewed over time.

"Mrs. Wu." County Lord Qinning knew the rules in front of the elders, and was docile and well-behaved.

Mrs. Wu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "County Master Qinning, long time no see, how is Zhenyuan waiting?"

Zhenyuanhou is the father of Qinning county lord. The old Zhenyuanhou loved this daughter very much, and even personally asked the emperor to give him the name Qinning, and rewarded him with a piece of back cover.

"My father is in good health, but he is getting older and it is inconvenient for him to come to the capital."

Mrs. Wu looked at her little daughter and Liang Qiao who was hiding behind her daughter. There are few fools in the capital. How could she not know Liang Qiao's tricks and careful thinking? It's just that her daughter regarded him as a close friend. Mrs. Wu The talent didn't do it.

But not doing it doesn't mean not making things difficult.

"Why is Ms. Liang not polite when she sees Mrs. Ben? How did you learn the rules?"

"Mother!" Wu Pingting anxiously wanted to defend her good sister, but Madam Wu stared back fiercely.

Liang Qiao clenched her fists and walked out from behind Wu Pingting, scolding Wu Pingting in her heart for being useless, and saluted with an extremely weak face, looking unhealthy.

"My little girl has met Madam Wu, Madam Ankang."

The pretentious tone made Mrs. Wu frown, and when she was about to speak, she saw Liang Qiao lowered her head, her expression soft and her right hand slowly stroking her abdomen.

Madam Wu couldn't see what Liang Qiao meant, she gritted her teeth angrily, suddenly a strange maid walked up to Madam Wu, said a few words in a low voice, Madam Wu looked up at the door.

Also seeing Shen Yang hiding behind the gate, Mrs. Wu stopped entangled with the children and sent them away, while she hurried into the other courtyard.

Liang Qiao saw Madam Wu's strangeness, she didn't see Shen Yang, she looked thoughtfully at Madam Wu's leaving back and the empty door.
