Chapter 132 Chen returns home
Next, Zhu Yun told her master everything that had happened during this period. Of course, there were some things she didn't say, such as her feeling that Lord Xiao was paying too much attention to Master Qiao.
After Zhu Yun finished speaking, Qi You lowered his eyes and thought for a long time without saying anything, but he was in a good mood.
After watching his son go to bed, Qiao Rongjin got up and prepared to wash up and rest.
However, at this moment, Qinyun came back.
Seeing that look, it seemed that something was wrong. Qiao Rongjin stopped and turned to look at Qin Yun in confusion.
"Master, I have heard a piece of news." Qin Yun was a little out of breath, but at least she spoke clearly.
"what news?"
Not to mention, Qin Yunshi is really useful and loyal. She has long lost the arrogance and ulterior motives she had when she first entered Haitang Courtyard. She plans to make use of her.
Qinglian also packed up her things and stood beside her master, looking at Qinyun with the same confusion.
"The third young master went to the study to wait for the prince, and was later taken into the study by the prince. He was in there for about half an incense stick of time, and Guard Jiang also went in. Then I heard that the prince hurriedly asked someone to prepare a carriage and was heading towards the palace."
Hearing this, Qiao Rongjin pondered for a while. What could Qi Zhao want from Prince Rui? It must be that Prince Rui already knew what happened to Chen in prison.
Are you so impatient? Qiao Rongjin's eyes turned cold.
"Very good, keep paying attention, Qinglian." Qiao Rongjin glanced at Qinyun with appreciation.
Qinglian took out a small and exquisite purse and handed it to Qinyun. Qinyun happily took it and immediately bowed to Qiao Rongjin, "Yes, I thank the master for the reward."
Then, after walking for a distance, Qinyun weighed the purse, it was very light, and she couldn't help but open the purse out of curiosity to take a look, and then her eyes lit up.
It’s a golden bead!
Qinyun's eyes were full of smiles. The master was really generous. It seemed that the only people who got the golden bead were Qinglian and Sister Zhuyun, and now she was included.
Hehe, what does this mean? It means that I have gradually gained the master's favor. After all, these things of gathering information are very important.
Qinyun carefully put the purse back into her arms, and after making sure it would not fall, she returned to her room happily.
Here, Qinglian silently helped Qiao Rongjin wash up. She seemed to want to say something but hesitated, which made Qiao Rongjin frown.
"Just say whatever you want to say. Look at you. How come you have changed after not seeing you for three months?" Qiao Rongjin stretched out her hand and let Qinglian take off her clothes one by one.
Hearing this, Qinglian's eyes turned red again, and then she suddenly knelt down in front of Qiao Rongjin's gaze.
"Master, it was Qinglian who failed to protect the young master, which caused the young master to suffer all these sufferings. Qinglian is too ashamed to see you." After saying this, the tears fell without warning.
Qiao Rongjin was startled by Qinglian's sudden action and didn't react for a while. After hearing Qinglian's choking voice, he helped her up reluctantly.
"Get up. Why are you crying? It's not your fault. Don't think too much about it. Just take good care of him in the future." The most important thing was that she knew her son's temper. He would not let anyone follow him if he didn't want to.
Hearing this, Qinglian wanted to cry even more. Her master didn't blame her.
"Alright, alright, I need to rest." Qiao Rongjin looked at Qinglian's expression and thought that if she continued like this, she would probably cry more, so he interrupted her quickly.
"Yes." Qinglian quickly wiped away her tears, and quickly made the bed. After checking that there was no problem, she took out the water for washing.
The next day.
The news of Chen's return home spread throughout the Prince Rui's Mansion.
Luoyanju was crowded with people in an instant.
Except for Qiao Rongjin and Yan who had just suffered a miscarriage, all the masters in the mansion went.
Qin Yun squeezed into the crowd, observing the information calmly, writing down the words and small movements of the masters in the backyard, so that he could be ready to go back and report to his master when the time came.
Chen was carried back by two strong maids and a woman in the mansion. She had her eyes closed and her face was pale and bloodless. She was much thinner than before and had lost her former charm. She also seemed to have fainted.
Only Qi Zhao, with red eyes, followed the maids and servants who carried Chen.
Only then did he realize that his mother's hands and feet had been cut off. It was the first time he saw his mother unconscious. Qi Zhao was terrified and only stared at Chen's face. He had no energy to care about the other people who were watching the fun.
"This Chen did such a terrible evil, but she didn't die. She was actually rescued by the prince. She is really lucky!"
"That's right. After all, she is the prince's favorite. From this incident, we can see who the prince likes the most. We really underestimated Chen."
"At the beginning, I said that this woman was not simple, but my sisters didn't believe me." An said with a sneer, her eyes full of jealousy.
"She wasn't even charged with the crime of murdering the royal heir. Haha, she's really amazing!" Qin murmured.
Even she, the niece of the virtuous concubine, could not do it, but Chen, a person with no status or background, did it. It can be seen that everyone underestimated her.
And everyone underestimated her position in the prince's heart.
The princess didn't say a word the whole time, except that her nails almost dug into her flesh.
No one could be more restless than her.
She didn't expect that Chen had such a profound influence on the prince.
When Chen entered Luoyanju, the princess said, "Let's go and see Sister Chen."
In fact, while the group hated Chen, they also envied her because the prince's favoritism towards her was something they wanted but could not get.
After hearing the princess' words, everyone had different expressions, but deep down they all wanted to go in and watch the show.
It's rare that Chen has become such a useless person now, which really makes people feel relieved. According to her current condition, it is likely that she will not be favored by the prince in the future. Thinking of this, the people who were originally jealous also smiled.
A group of people rushed into Chen's house.
Chen, who had just entered the room, opened her eyes instantly. The madness, distortion, and hatred in her eyes were so intense that the old woman who came forward to cover her with a quilt was so scared that she took a big step back.
The old woman patted her chest, looking frightened.
"Mom, you're awake, that's great!" When Qi Zhao saw that his mother was fine, tears immediately came to his eyes and he stood beside her bed crying.
Seeing her son like this, Chen felt extremely distressed. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the princess' voice, "Oh, Sister Chen is awake?"
Chen's face froze and turned even paler. Just thinking about her current appearance, she knew she was in an extremely miserable state. When had she ever been so embarrassed? Now she was going to be seen by others. In an instant, her face was distorted, and she looked at the old woman with murderous eyes. Seeing this, the old woman was so scared that she stepped back repeatedly, and did not dare to look at Chen again.
