Chapter 230
Beixiu Yan did not express any opinions, but simply said: "The emperor may betroth the princess to Marquis Jing'an."
Marquis of Jingan?
Shen Ruzhou searched for this person's face in his mind, and after thinking for a long time, he could barely recall what he looked like.
It's not her fault for having a bad memory, it's because that person has no sense of presence in this huge imperial city.
She remembered that the ancestors of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion had military exploits, but their descendants failed to live up to their expectations. The title was passed to the current Marquis, and he could no longer support the family. The current Marquis of Jingan Mansion has no money and power. It's too bad. Once upon a time.
This marriage is far different from the Duke's Mansion in the previous life.
Jianing is now physically disabled, so she must not be able to find anyone with a high profile. The emperor was looking for this marriage for her, so he probably gave up on her.
Jianing thought in her heart that Qin Yu would not marry anyone else casually, let alone such a poor family.
I'm afraid Jianing is going to cause a scene.
This was in line with Shen Ruzhou's wishes. She had lobbied Jianing last time. Now that Jianing was in such a miserable situation, it would not be long before Jianing would be tempted and come to her for cooperation, so she would just wait.
"The princess is a noble person, so her marriage will naturally need to be considered again and again, and it won't be decided for a while." Shen Ruzhou said calmly, and looked towards the north to repair the banquet with a smile.
"Thank you, Prince Regent, for coming over and telling me this. Once I take care of things here, I will definitely rush to the military camp as soon as possible to relieve the plague in the military camp."
Bei Xiuyan said nothing more and nodded lightly.
Shen Ruzhou nodded to him and said goodbye. Beixiu Yan watched her get off the carriage, his cold eyebrows slightly narrowed, and he lowered his eyes to read the letter she wrote to him...
After Shen Ruzhou got off the carriage, she did not leave immediately. She walked up to Qin Yu and asked, "How has Huaining been in good health these past two days?"
"The young master is doing well," Qin Yu said, "The prince won't let him go out, and now he is locked up in the palace all day long."
Shen Ruzhou laughed dumbly. No wonder he didn't come today. It turned out that he was locked up.
"The epidemic has begun to spread recently, and it is still very dangerous outside. His temper must be restless. You must keep an eye on him and don't let him wander around. He is not in good health to begin with. It will be very troublesome if he gets the disease again. of."
As Shen Ruzhou spoke, he took out two medicine bottles from his arms and handed them to Qin Yu.
"This is the medicine I prepared for him. The method of taking it is the same as before. The weather has been a lot colder in the past two days and it is easy for him to get sick. Let him take the medicine and have a good rest."
Qin Yu accepted it and said with a smile: "Princess, thank you very much for your trouble."
Shen Ruzhou nodded, turned and left.
At the same time, a figure flashed across the corner, quietly opened the corner door and entered the palace.
In Mu Wanrong's room, Xiao Ling was burning mugwort and fumigating the house.
"Smell that quilt well." Mu Wanrong covered her nose with a handkerchief, looking sad.
She had no choice but to stay here. Although she was not in the same room as Xiao Chenyan, she was still very likely to be infected if she was so close.
As soon as she came over, she quickly sealed the doors and windows and burned herbs to drive away the poison.
"Concubine, everything is done." Xiao Ling cleaned the whole room and smoked it. Just as he was about to open the window to get some air, Mu Wanrong scolded him: "Idiot, close it quickly!"
Mu Wanrong closed the window with quick eyes and hands, poked Xiao Ling's forehead and cursed: "The prince is so ill, what should I do if he passes it on!"
Xiao Ling shrank her neck and said hurriedly: "The concubine Jiren has her own destiny, so she will definitely not be infected."
Mu Wanrong felt depressed in her heart, twisting her handkerchief and saying, "Your Majesty, it's true, why should I go to Liaodong! Now I've contracted an epidemic, and I can't leave even if I'm tired."
"It's all my fault that bitch Shen Ruzhou didn't tell me earlier and insisted on letting me stay." Mu Wanrong gritted her teeth, "She must have done it on purpose! If I get sick too, I will never let her go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and a woman's voice came from outside the door: "Concubine, I am a slave."
Xiao Ling's eyes lit up and she looked at Mu Wanrong and said, "The concubine is Xue Yan. Maybe there is some news."
Xue Yan was not from Mu Wanrong's house, but a maid in the outer courtyard. Mu Wanrong couldn't get out here, so he bribed Xue Yan and asked her to inquire about the news outside.
Mu Wanrong nodded to Xiao Ling, and Xiao Ling immediately opened the door.
Xue Yan came in quietly, with an excited look on her face, "Concubine, I just saw that the princess climbed over the wall and had a secret meeting with her husband!"
"What did you say?" Mu Wanrong was startled and stood up from the chair. "What's going on? Be careful!"
Xue Yan said: "My slave saw the princess talking and laughing outside the palace with the guard from the regent's palace under the tree. After chatting for a long time, the princess gave the man something. It must be a token of love!"
Mu Wanrong's eyes widened, and she was surprised and suspicious: "A bodyguard from the Regent's Palace?"
"Exactly." Xue Yan nodded and said with certainty: "It's the one who was injured in our palace before!"
"Qian Yu?" Mu Wanrong looked in disbelief, "Shen Ruzhou actually has an affair with him?!"
Xiao Ling was also very surprised and asked Xue Yan: "Are you sure you saw it right?"
"Of course you read it right!" Xue Yan looked at Mu Wanrong with a sincere expression, "I can see clearly that the princess gave the token to the man, and the man looked very happy."
"Now that the palace is sealed, the princess still has to go over the wall to see that person, who must be her lover!"
Mu Wanrong looked shocked, pursed her lips and said nothing, then sat down holding the table.
She didn't believe that Shen Ruzhou had an affair with a guard, but Qin Yu was not an ordinary guard. He was the regent's personal guard, and he was a gold medal guard protecting the young master of the regent's palace. He had a good temperament and wanted to marry him. There are so many people, isn't the princess one of them?
Thinking about it again, Shen Ruzhou did have a lot of dealings with Qin Yu.
When Qin Yu was injured that time, Shen Ruzhou went to great lengths to rescue him. Qin Yu always talked to Shen Ruzhou, and the two of them seemed to be somewhat ambiguous.
That's right, no wonder Beixiu Yan helped Shen Ruzhou many times. It turned out that he wanted to help people in his house secretly infiltrate Chen Cang.
Moreover, Shen Ruzhou was so entangled with Xiao Chenyan in the past, and now he proposed to divorce, he must have moved on and wanted to leave Xiao Chenyan to be with Qin Yu!
It turned out to be the case.
The look of surprise on Mu Wanrong's face faded, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth, "Shen Ruzhou, how dare you do such a shameless thing!"
Xiao Ling said in Mu Wanrong's ear: "Concubine, if this matter is true, the princess will never be able to turn around again!"
"Yes, this is an excellent opportunity." Mu Wanrong's eyes flashed with a hint of sinisterness, "She bumped into her herself, so don't blame me for being cruel. This time I will give her a big gift, and I must make her completely finished!"
Recently, she discovered that Xiao Chenyan treats Shen Ruzhou differently. Xiao Chenyan broke up with Lishu last time. It was obvious that he started to care about Shen Ruzhou, but he was not as gentle and considerate to her as before. It would not be a good idea to continue like this.
She must seize this opportunity and reverse the situation!
Mu Wanrong immediately took a pen and paper, wrote a letter, and handed it to Xue Yan.
"Send this letter to Princess Jianing. If the job is done well, I will give you a heavy reward."
Xue Yan responded, carefully took the letter and went out immediately.
After Xue Yan left, Mu Wanrong couldn't restrain her excitement and paced back and forth in the room.
Thinking of Shen Ruzhou's future fate, she smiled lowly, with a cruel light bursting out of her eyes.
Evil people will be punished by evil people. Shen Ruzhou committed suicide on his own, so no one else can blame him.
This time she doesn't have to take action herself, just wait and see the good show...
