Chapter 244 Don’t worry, it won’t happen
Prince Beijing returned to the study in the back house, and all the maids and concubines who served him were driven away.
Besides the two young eunuchs, the only person serving in the room was Cao Yu.
Not long after, Liao Changshi arrived, with a strange look on his face and a hint of hesitation.
Prince Beijing glanced at him and said, "What's the matter? Why are you so hesitant?"
Cao Yu also looked at him, slightly surprised: "Mr. Liao hasn't been this uneasy in the past few months! What happened?"
Liao Changshi gave him a reproachful look, then he bowed to Prince Beijing helplessly:
"Jia Rong, the eldest grandson of the Jinling Ninggong branch, who is in mourning, has sent someone to report a piece of news."
Prince Beijing frowned: "That loser? What can he tell me?"
Cao Yu's heart skipped a beat and he secretly thought, "Oh no!"
Liao Changshi sighed and said, "Princess Zhaoqing, we have arrived in Suzhou."
Cao Yu suddenly felt dizzy and his eyes went dark!
Before he left the capital, his brother gave him many instructions, but there were only two of them:
First, Your Majesty is the master of the Celestial Empire! Apart from Your Majesty, everyone else is a demon, a scum, and a dregs!
Second, Your Majesty has only one weak spot, and that is Princess Zhaoqing!
At that time, he even asked desperately: "What about the Queen?"
His brother, the official in the Ministry of Personnel, smiled coldly and replied, "From the Records of the Grand Historian to the Comprehensive Mirror for Aid in Government, it has been five thousand years.
"Which dynasty and which queen was not a pawn in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor!?"
So, this willful Princess Zhaoqing came to Jiangnan?
Even though he had a grudge against the Prince of Beijing, he came to Jiangnan in disguise? !
Is she the ancestor who is seeking death? !
Given his current role and position, he has neither the position nor the means to protect her life, innocence, and reputation!!!
Cao Yu cursed in his heart, then froze for a moment, looked at Prince Beijing, and shut his mouth.
Prince Beijing had already stopped caring about him. He jumped up, put one foot on the chair, slammed one hand on the table, gnashed his teeth, and his eyes gleamed:
"Who did you say came to Jiangnan?!"
"Lin's daughter." Liao Changshi gritted his teeth and sighed.
Cao Yu's mind moved: It seems that this Liao guy doesn't seem to agree with Prince Beijing making enemies with the Lin family?
Prince Beijing laughed grimly: "I was planning to let her go!
“But she actually dared to go to Jiangnan openly!
"If I still can't accept her, won't I be laughed at by the whole world?!"
This is what I said...
Cao Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, Your Majesty!"
Prince Beijing put his hand in front of his face and said, "This woman is not an ordinary girl!
“This prince wants to take her in, not just for that pretty face!
"There are so many old accounts in the Jiangnan Salt Administration that they can almost be used as a handle for the entire court!
"Since the emperor didn't take it, it must be in her hands!
"As long as I let her take the surname Shui, I can make the entire Jiangnan and half of the court take the surname Shui!"
There was a fierce light in Prince Beijing's eyes!
…(Make trouble! Make trouble! Make trouble!)…
Suzhou, Lin’s old house.
Daiyu was surprised: "Who wants to see you?"
Qingwen: "Second Master Yun, you brought two people from Nanjing, one is called Jia Jin and the other is called Jia Wei.
"These three people look terrible and are going crazy!"
She also scratched her head anxiously, "Princess, go and see him quickly!"
Daiyu raised her eyebrows slightly, paused for a moment, and then understood:
"It seems that someone in the Jia family found out that I came to Suzhou, so they went to inform Prince Beijing."
Everyone in the room changed color!
Zijuan was the first to turn pale with anxiety. She asked in a trembling voice, "Miss, shall we go? Let's go back to Beijing now!"
"Prince Beijing is staying in Yangzhou, which is the place I must pass through on my way back to Beijing."
Daiyu stood up slowly and said, "If I return north now, I will run right into his net."
Xueyan rushed over and hugged her: "Girl, we can go by sea!"
Daiyu looked at her with amusement: "If that doesn't work, we can still go to Guangzhou by sea and eat Cantonese food?"
Xueyan was so anxious that her eyes turned red: "I am not joking!
"As long as we can avoid Prince Beijing!
“If he hears that the girl is in Jiangnan now, he will go crazy!
"You said earlier that you would come quietly, do your work quickly, and then leave quickly!
"Since returning from Panxiang Temple, you have suddenly stopped being anxious!
"Girl! The county magistrate is better off managing it now! A wise man will not suffer a loss in front of him!
"Let's go to a safe place and talk about it!"
Aunt Meng looked at Lin Daiyu's calm and composed appearance and suddenly said, "Why are you so anxious?"
The room fell silent.
"Have you forgotten? Who did we run into in Panxiang Temple?"
Everyone looked at each other.
"So, what do we have to be afraid of?"
Everyone was silent.
That being said, what if? What if the Grand Master and the Queen Mother can’t make it in time?!
After a long while, Xiao Hong reluctantly spoke, breaking the silence: "The Jia family is still waiting in the hall."
Daiyu smiled and stood up: "Don't be afraid, let's go and ask them what they are here for."
No one wanted to wait for news in the house, so the group went to the flower hall in a mighty manner.
When Chu Qian saw that the four maids and Aunt Meng had all arrived, he couldn't help rubbing his eyes.
What is going on?
Daiyu sat down behind the screen before letting Jia Yun and the other three in.
Jia Yun's face looked obviously unhappy.
It was the first time for Jia Jin and Jia Wei to meet an imperial edict of real rank, and they both lowered their heads politely and did not dare to raise them.
He bowed deeply, stood up when called, then stood sideways with his head lowered, waiting to be questioned.
Daiyu looked at Jia Yun and smiled slightly, "You should seldom be so impatient.
"What happened? Did the sky fall or did the lake embankment leak?
"You are not afraid of the huge capital city, so what is a small Gusu?
"Hold on tight. Tell me, what's the matter?"
Jia Yun took a few deep breaths, and finally calmed down a little. He said in a deep voice:
"Master Xiaorong specially arranged people to keep an eye on Suzhou. When he got the news of the princess's arrival, he intended to pass it on to Prince Beijing, but it was intercepted by Grandma Zhen."
Behind the screen, the women felt relieved.
Only Daiyu's face tightened: "Then?"
"I always feel that Uncle Xiaorong would not arrange only that one line.
"Now I'm afraid that Prince Beijing has already known that the princess is in Gusu.
"It's too late for us to leave. Why don't we show up and get ready?"
Jia Yun gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
We can only take a gamble. Prince Beijing is still somewhat afraid of the beating given by the Supreme Lord and the Emperor who dotes on Princess Zhaoqing.
Daiyu curled the corners of her mouth and chuckled silently.
The girls' eyes widened when they saw her expression!
Only Aunt Meng and Xiaohong seemed to be thinking about something.
Especially Xiaohong, after a while, she narrowed her eyes.
"Don't make blind guesses." Lin Daiyu said lazily, "Prince Beijing is the only prince of a different surname in the court.
“The Supreme Master has taught me for many years, and Your Majesty treats me as a brother.
"He came to Jiangnan to quell the flood, which benefited the court and the people.
"How could such a person care about a little girl like me?
"Don't worry, it won't happen!"
