Chapter 584 Xiao Chenyan deliberately ruined Shen Ruzhou’s reputation
After Fei Ling was dressed up, she now looked more and more similar to Shen Ruzhou. It would be difficult to tell them apart unless she was particularly familiar with them.
Not far away, Mrs. Lu and her daughter Lu Rou were wandering around the imperial garden with Concubine De. At this time, they were preparing to leave the palace. From a distance, they saw Jun Wu leading a woman in red with a slim waist to the East Palace.
Mrs. Lu was afraid that her old eyes would not be able to see clearly, so she turned to her daughter and asked, "Is that General Shen's legitimate daughter?"
"It's not Shen Ruzhou or whoever it is." Lu Rou's tone was very unkind, and contempt leaked from the corners of her eyes, "You are about to get married to the regent, and you are not clear with the prince. You are flirtatious and shameless."
Mrs. Lu looked at her displeasure, gave her a sideways glance, and said in a sinister tone: "Miss Shen is so capable, no matter whether she is the regent or the prince, she can control her. Unlike you, no one else wants to be a concubine."
Lu Rou curled her lips and said, "What's so good about that? She behaved badly before and brought shame to the General's Mansion."
"My ancestor, why did I raise such an ignorant person like you?" Mrs. Lu looked like she hated iron. "Face is worth a few dollars. For the Shen family to have the glory it has today, both the prince and the regent have contributed." Quite a few, the power and wealth you get are real, who cares what the outside world says.”
Lu Rou curled her lips, holding back the tears in her eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved, "I know that my father is not going well in the court, and I want to please the prince to find a good future, but I dressed up carefully, and the prince didn't even look at me. See what I can do."
Mrs. Lu was very helpless and felt that she had to work hard to teach her daughter how to behave.
In a blink of an eye, the annual Flower Festival is here again. On this day, ladies and ladies from all over the country will go out to see flowers and lanterns, and the streets are crowded with people and very lively.
When Shen Ruzhou was grinding medicine in the wing of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Xiao Chenyan came. Today he was wearing ordinary clothes and holding a gold-illuminated fan in his hand, which looked quite elegant like a Qian Qian.
"Today is the Hundred Flowers Festival. After you take care of the emperor and take medicine, how about we go out for a walk?" Xiao Chenyan shook his fan with a warm and friendly voice.
Shen Ruzhou is a lively person, and she goes to the Flower Festival every year. But this year, the Northern Xiu Banquet was not in Kyoto, and Xiao Chenyan felt irritated just looking at him, let alone playing together, so she flatly refused, "Your Highness, I have to check the medical books tonight and adjust a few prescriptions, so I don't have time to go out and play. "
"Then you stay in the pharmacy tonight and are not allowed to leave." Xiao Chenyan suddenly darkened his face and said viciously.
"Yes." Shen Ruzhou agreed readily. She didn't plan to go out anyway. Without the Flower Festival of Beixiu Banquet, she couldn't arouse any interest no matter how beautiful it was.
Xiao Chenyan snorted coldly, threw up his sleeves and walked away.
Shen Ruzhou looked at the background of his departure and felt baffled. Xiao Chenyan was becoming more and more uncertain now, very similar to the way he was before going crazy in his previous life.
Xiao Chenyan left the Hall of Supreme Harmony with an angry look on his face, and ordered the guards to close the door. After not allowing anyone in or out tonight, a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
When the sky darkens, the lanterns on the street are lit up together. The colorful flowers and lights of different shapes complement each other, making it as beautiful as a fairyland.
The bustling street was crowded with people. Shen Chumu and Shen Rulan were walking hand in hand, feeling very happy.
Shen Rulan held up a bright rabbit lantern and showed it to Shen Chumu, "Does this look good?"
After asking and getting no response, she shook Shen Chu Mu's arm unwillingly, "Chu Mu, what am I asking you? What are you looking at?"
Seeing Shen Chumu's eyes staring forward motionlessly, Shen Rulan also looked along his line of sight in surprise.
At just one glance, she was so shocked that she covered her mouth, "Then, is that Ruzhou?"
Shen Chumu turned his head, eager to confirm with her, "You also saw that it was Ruzhou, right? But, how could she come out with the prince? And... and still be so close to the prince..."
It was so inappropriate to be so intimate in public. What's more, my sister is already engaged to the regent, and now she's traveling with the prince. What's going on?
"Perhaps we made a mistake. Ruzhou is not such an imprudent person." Shen Rulan found a reason to explain to Shen Ruzhou, "After all, the night is dark and we are far apart, so it is possible that we have made a mistake."
While talking, Xiao Chenyan and his party had already entered the restaurant. Shen Chumu was even more confused, so he pulled Shen Rulan and said, "Let's go and take a look."
Tingfeng Tower is located in the most prosperous part of the market. Sitting in the private room upstairs, you can see the beautiful scenery of the entire Hundred Flowers Festival. Many female relatives of high-ranking families do not want to go to the streets to crowd, so they will drink tea here. sit.
As soon as Xiao Chenyan and Fei Ling came in, someone immediately noticed them, "Look, the Crown Prince is here."
With an exclamation, everyone turned their eyes in unison.
On the stairs, Xiao Chenyan held Fei Ling's slender waist and walked up step by step. The two of them lowered their heads and laughed from time to time, and their affectionate look attracted the envy of all the ladies in the boudoir.
"Who is this woman that the prince favors her so much?" A young lady who doesn't go out often couldn't help but sigh.
"Who else could it be? General Shen's legitimate daughter Shen Ruzhou. She had reconciled with His Highness the Crown Prince before, and recently got engaged to the Regent. Who would have thought that as soon as the Regent left for the war, she would fall into the arms of His Highness the Crown Prince? What a good trick. ." Lu Rou poured out everything she knew with jealousy and hatred.
This statement caused a lot of discussion among the ladies upstairs.
"When he was separated, His Highness the Crown Prince was still King Wu Cheng, but now he is a powerful Crown Prince. Shen Ruzhou must regret it."
"But isn't she already engaged to the regent? It would be a disservice to her reputation to be like this."
"Her reputation has long been gone, so why should she worry about it? The regent has just left Kyoto, and she can't bear the loneliness and goes to see the prince again. She is a complete slut."
"..."
A group of uninformed boudoir girls killed Shen Ruzhou in his mouth countless times with every word he said to her.
Shen Chumu, who followed, heard these disgusting remarks as soon as he went up the stairs, and was so angry that veins popped up on his forehead.
Afraid that he would rush over and argue with these ladies, Shen Rulan quickly pulled him out of the restaurant.
"You can't stop them from saying what they want to say. I think there must be something wrong here. We'd better find a chance to ask them clearly before talking."
Shen Chumu slowly loosened his clenched fists, nodded and said, "I'm going to the Prince Regent's Mansion now."
When the regent left, he specially left Qin Ming behind to deal with matters in the capital. Therefore, Shen Chumu decided to ask Qin Ming.
"Guard Qin, what's going on in Ruzhou these past two days?"
"Miss Shen has been diagnosing the emperor in the palace." Qin Mingjian Shen Chumu looked wrong and asked suspiciously, "What is General Shen worried about?"
Naturally, Shen Chumu would not say anything about seeing his sister traveling with the prince. After thinking for a while, he said, "The regent is not in the capital after all. I'm afraid that Ruzhou will be blackmailed and do something unavoidable."
Hearing what he said, Qin Ming immediately felt relieved and said with a smile: "Don't worry, General Shen. Miss Shen and I have agreed to report each other's safety every day using carrier pigeons. She just sent a letter tonight saying that everything is fine."
