Chapter 385 Want to open a medical clinic
The words were obviously meant to excuse himself, but when they fell on Xiao Chenyan's ears, they felt particularly harsh. It always seemed that Xiao Ruohan was scolding him in disguise.
Shen Ruzhou and Xiao Chenyan, husband and wife, knew him too well and didn't bother to expose him, "It's true that I gave you money on credit today, but no one has encountered an emergency yet. I'll take the money as a loan and I'll pay it back to you later."
Thinking back to the time when Shen Chumu offered her money, she refused, thinking that she would not be able to use it if she came to the nunnery to clean up the troubles. As a result, she was now penniless, and she felt regretful.
Xiao Chenyan snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain, "No need to pay it back, I don't care about your three melons and two dates."
But Shen Ruzhou insisted on paying it back, and even wrote a decent IOU and handed it to Xiao Chenyan, "Now that we have reconciled, we should make a clean break. I, Shen Ruzhou, will never owe you a penny."
Xiao Ruohan was sandwiched between the two of them. Seeing the smell of gunpowder getting stronger and stronger, he quickly changed the subject, "Miss Shen, staying in the nunnery must be very boring, but are you still used to it?"
Shen Ruzhou turned around and glanced into the room. After thinking for a moment, he said: "There is nothing going on in the nunnery. It is relatively quiet, but I want to open a medical clinic to treat these common people who despise medicine..."
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Chenyan poured cold water on him, "Do you think the medical clinic is so easy to open? If you only treat people who despise the disease and make no money, how many more days do you think the medical clinic can sustain it?!"
Hearing this, Shen Ruzhou suddenly became furious, pointed at Xiao Chenyan and said: "That's because you powerful people are unkind and unjust, forcing the people to live in poverty, and you have to suffer the disease yourself."
Xiao Chenyan was left speechless by the rebuke, his handsome face turned red with anger, and finally he simply stood up and left with a puff of sleeves.
When he walked to the entrance of the courtyard and saw that Xiao Ruohan did not follow him, he turned to Xiao Ruohan with a sullen face and said angrily: "You are not leaving yet? Do you want me to carry you away in a sedan chair?"
The first rain since the beginning of autumn in Kyoto fell all night, and everyone put on thick clothes in the morning.
Bei Xiuyan stood in the corridor listening to the sound of rain, with a stern face, and said calmly: "How is the investigation of Xiao Ruohan's life experience going?"
Hearing this, Qin Ming respectfully reported back the information he had found in detail, "Xiao Ruohan is an orphan. He was adopted by the eldest princess because of his outstanding appearance when he was begging on the street. Later, he was sent to Jiangnan to learn various skills. He was brought back a few days ago. Kyoto.”
Bei Xiuyan frowned slightly, his bottomless eyes rippled, and he turned around and asked, "No more?"
Qin Ming handed over his hand, "That's all we've found so far. My subordinates have sent people to Jiangnan. Xiao Ruohan has lived there for many years. There should be more news coming back."
The raindrops on the eaves fell in a line, and Bei Xiuyan stretched out his hand to catch it. The cool rainwater slipped from his fingertips, leaving a faint chill.
"Let's find out more about Xiao Ruohan's preferences, what she likes to eat and what she likes to wear."
Could it be that the prince really fell in love with Xiao Ruohan?
Even though Qin Ming had been with Beixiu Yan for many years, when he heard Bei Xiuyan say this, it was like a thunder struck him in the head, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
After a long time, Qin Ming calmed down and boldly advised, "The eldest princess has always been ambitious. Xiao Ruohan has been trained by her for many years and must be used to win people's hearts. This person is a pawn of the eldest princess. The regent still wants to Be vigilant and don’t get..."
Qin Ming tried hard for a long time to say the words "beautiful and seductive" at the end, but finally didn't dare to say them out.
Beixiu Yan was noncommittal, looking up at the gloomy sky in the distance with an indifferent expression, "It's just a woman, there is no need to be a soldier."
In Prince Wucheng's palace, Xiao Ruohan was sitting elegantly in front of the guzheng in a thin feather gauze dress. His slender fingers flicked the strings lightly and skillfully. The sweet sound of the piano blended perfectly with the sound of falling rain outside the house, just like the sound of nature.
Xiao Chenyan, who was sitting in the main seat, was a little intoxicated. His irritable mood was greatly relieved at this moment, and he felt unprecedented physical and mental comfort.
Xiao Ruohan is really good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting, and the eldest princess really paid off her efforts.
After the song ended, Xiao Ruohan stood up, came to Xiao Chenyan's side, knelt down on the low couch next to him and made incense.
Xiao Chenyan smelled the gentle fragrance of bergamot and couldn't help but praise, "You play the piano well and the incense is well blended. If you weren't always so cold-faced, you would be considered a wonderful person."
Xiao Ruohan lowered his head and said nothing, concentrating on playing with the incense.
Xiao Chenyan was used to her indifference, so he didn't care.
At this time, Mu Wanrong came in with soup. Before he could get closer, Xiao Ruohan immediately stood up and retreated a few feet away.
Xiao Chenyan looked at her suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Ruohan glanced at Mu Wanrong with his cold eyes, and then bowed in reply, "Miss Shen reminded me before, to stay away from the concubine! Otherwise, she will be accused by the concubine accidentally and push her down. If she has miscarriage, I’m afraid the blame will be on me.”
Hearing this, panic flashed in Mu Wanrong's eyes. Although she had had this plan, she was exposed before it was implemented, and she really couldn't keep it up.
Soon, she calmed down and cried out full of grievances, "Your Majesty, it is unjust for Wanrong to be slandered like this. Shen Ruzhou has gone too far. Everyone has left, and he still wants to ruin my reputation."
Xiao Chenyan's good mood suddenly disappeared, and he scolded with a dark face, "Xiao Ruohan, don't talk nonsense and make the house uneasy."
Xiao Ruohan reluctantly said yes and didn't bother to stay any longer, so he bowed and left.
Mu Wanrong felt proud, feeling that Xiao Ruohan was just like this. Like Shen Ruzhou, he had a good skin, but he didn't know how to please a man at all.
"Your Majesty, Wanrong has personally prepared chicken soup to replenish your health." She handed the soup over to her with a gentle voice.
Xiao Chenyan was stunned to take the hand he was about to take when he heard it was chicken soup, "I don't want to drink chicken soup."
He felt angry when he thought of the bowl of chicken soup snatched away by Shen Ruzhou yesterday.
Mu Wanrong couldn't figure out Xiao Chenyan's thoughts, so she had to put the chicken soup back on the tray.
Chang Lin came in to present the documents from each government and saw Mu Wanrong with a smile on his face.He moved his eyes downward and noticed that the other person's belly had bulged slightly, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
Mu Wanrong quickly turned sideways, but fortunately Xiao Chenyan looked down at the document and didn't notice it.
She was worried about being discovered, so she pretended to be knowledgeable and said: "Since the prince has business to attend to, Wanrong won't bother you anymore and will leave first."
Xiao Chenyan didn't even raise his head, he just waved his hand casually.
Chang Lin was a little disappointed. It took him a long time to see him once. Before he could take a second look, he left again.
"What's the news from Prince Yu?"
