Chu Yan naturally knew what was going on, but he still had to do superficial things.
She went to look for Li Yuan and Li Xin, but they just avoided seeing her.
Xiangyi's side was not much better. The servants who used to talk and laugh with her were avoiding her now. Even if she was caught, they would either ignore him or ask questions without knowing anything. No matter what she did, There is no use in trying to please someone by giving them gifts.
After working for a long time, I came back without success.
She said angrily: "These people are really going too far. In the past, sisters and sisters called each other and accepted gifts very quickly, but now they are like sawed-off gourds, giving them gifts to please them. Isn’t it just to find out the news? You don’t understand any of the rules!”
Chu Yan was amused by her words: "Do you still have such rules among your servants?"
Xiangyi pouted: "Miss, please stop teasing me."
Chu Yan stopped laughing and sighed: "They are avoiding talking about it. It can be seen that something big happened, and it is related to me, so they don't dare to talk to us."
Xiangyi frowned: "What can happen? Could it be that our things were stolen?! The guards didn't say anything!"
Thinking of this, she became a little anxious: "Slave, please go and count them. They are all the lady's dowry. There must be no mistakes!"
She left in a hurry, and Nanny Xu whispered: "Is it possible that it is related to the prince?"
After all, ginger is still spicier.
"Maybe." Chu Yan pretended not to know: "If it is really related to Brother Han and he avoids talking to me, what could it be?"
Aunt Xu's face darkened when she heard this. She was silent for a moment and said, "No matter what it is, tomorrow the young lady should talk to the princess about the affair and see what her attitude is."
Chu Yan hummed, "I'll talk to my aunt when I see her tomorrow."
Princess Ning is having a very bad life today.
Not long after Li Han was beaten, she got the news. When she hurried over, Li Han was already covered in bruises and was returned to the yard.
Looking at Li Han on the bed, she was angry and distressed. She quickly called the doctor at home for diagnosis and treatment, and immediately ordered that anyone who dared to reveal even a word to the people in Yunshangyuan would be beaten to death immediately!
After confirming that Li Han had just a flesh wound and nothing serious, Princess Ning became completely angry.
She dismissed all the servants, looked at Li Han on the bed and said angrily: "Are you crazy?! At this moment, you are going to provoke that Shen Yin and make it known to the whole city?!"
Li Han lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Seeing his appearance, Princess Ning was even more furious. If he hadn't been covered in bruises, she would have whipped him several times!
"Yesterday! Yesterday, my mother-in-law asked you what your attitude towards Yan'er was. How did you answer?! You said you have a good impression of her, but is this how you like her?! Do you know that if this matter is revealed? She knows that the marriage is annulled!"
Hearing this, Li Han finally reacted. He turned to Princess Ning and said, "Shen Yin has fallen into prostitution and offended Zuo Zhengyi. Even if I want to accept her as my concubine, I can't because it won't affect the marriage. ."
"What do you know?!"
Princess Ning was so angry that her chest hurt: "Prince Pingyang will only have Princess Pingyang in his life. The only requirement for the marriage is that you cannot have any affair with any woman! Princess Pingyang can't tolerate sand in her eyes. Do you think Chu Yan will tolerate it? Can you get off?!”
Li Han did not expect such a result, and was stunned when he heard this.
After a moment, he said: "Only this time."
Princess Ning sneered when she heard this: "You were born in my tenth month of pregnancy. How can I not know your temperament?"
"If I knew it would affect my marriage, I would never do this."
He looked at Princess Ning and said, "My mother said that Chu Yan can't tolerate sand in her eyes, and the same goes for my son. Shen Yin will receive guests after she undresses. My son will never touch her again. It's just a chance to get acquainted with her. My son promised." If she has the chance, she will help her escape from the world, and this is the only promise left between her son and her."
After hearing this, Princess Ning looked at the expression on his face carefully and saw that his eyes were serious and did not seem to be lying. She was silent for a moment and said: "I have suppressed this matter temporarily, but you are making too much trouble. As long as Yan'er comes out, The palace will definitely know that I can seal the mouths of the people in the palace, but I cannot seal the entire capital."
"For the current plan, the only way is to let her fall in love with you before she knows this. You have to do it. Only in this way can you have a chance."
After saying this, she sighed long and earnestly advised: "Yan'er is not comparable to Shen Yin in terms of appearance, body and talent. Not to mention Shen Yin's current status, even in the past, she was still nothing. Even when she was the most beautiful woman in the capital, she couldn't compare with Yan'er."
"What's more, Yan'er is the only daughter of King Pingyang. You should be able to tell which is more important. What happened today must never happen again, do you understand?!"
Li Han nodded: "My son has realized his mistake."
After all, he was his only biological son, and now he was injured again. Princess Ning could only sigh, give some instructions and go back.
The next day, Chu Yan went to pay her respects as usual and asked about Princess Ning's health with concern.
"After all, my daughter's family is caring."
Princess Ning smiled and said: "My aunt is fine. She is just getting older and the wind blew by the lake. When she got up early yesterday, she had a headache. It's nothing serious."
"My aunt is fine, so Yan'er can rest assured."
Chu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and then said coquettishly: "Auntie is still young. If you leave the house and are seen by strangers, they will definitely think that you are Yan'er's sister! How can you talk about being an old lady! "
Upon hearing the word "defu", Princess Ning's expression remained unchanged and she said with a smile: "Your little mouth is as sweet as honey!"
Chu Yan smiled sheepishly: "Yan'er is telling the truth."
"Speaking of leaving the house, there is something that my aunt needs to explain to you."
Princess Ning held her hand and said lovingly: "Logically speaking, after you come, my aunt should hold a banquet to introduce you to everyone, but you may not know something. There is some unrest in the capital now, so Zuo Zheng If you flatter your Majesty with alluring words, as long as you are good-looking, you will either take it for yourself or seduce His Majesty to take it into your harem."
"Our Yan'er is so beautiful, aunt is really worried..."
She didn't say clearly what she was worried about, as if she was hesitant to speak.
Chu Yan said clearly: "Auntie, I have taken the trouble. Yan'er is not in a hurry about this matter."
Seeing that she was so obedient, Princess Ning immediately smiled, patted her hand and said, "Auntie knows that Yan'er will understand her painstaking efforts."
Chu Yan nodded and said: "Aunt, Yan'er wants to repair a letter and send it to Pingyang. It has been several days since I arrived in the capital, and I haven't reported to my family that I am safe. Besides, Yan'er has been taking some medicine to regulate her body. The prescription was lost at sea, so I need to send a letter to my family to send the prescription."
