Chapter 119 Going to Wujiang River
"Well, I heard that the Third Prince will also be going this time..."
Li Junlin's eyes darkened for a moment. He didn't expect that Li Jinyuan would actually leave the capital.
"When will they leave?"
"Five days later."
Five days later? That would be the day he was released from confinement...
"Go back and prepare. We will go to Wujiang together in five days."
Ji Qingwan was stunned for a moment, then her long eyelashes trembled, and a trace of thought flashed across her beautiful eyes.
"Yes."
……
The harem, the elegant and luxurious Changle Palace.
"Snapped--"
I don’t know how many glass cups Concubine Rou has broken.
The maids all retreated and squatted outside the hall, not daring to breathe loudly.
"Damn it! Li Jinyuan is such a scheming person! Just like his deceased mother! Both are disgusting bitches!"
Only this arrogant and domineering concubine could insult the royal heir so openly.
The woman didn't care about the armor on her hands. She put her five fingers together and clenched her fists tightly, as if she didn't feel any pain at all.
"This has caused my daughter Lin'er to be confined by the Emperor, and the whole court is talking about it!"
"If I had known earlier, I should have strangled him to death the moment he was born."
The senior palace maid beside Concubine Rou was also panicked. Seeing that what the concubine said was getting more and more horrifying, she was really afraid that someone with ulterior motives would hear it.
But now she was furious, and the maids didn't dare to persuade her, fearing that they would end up like the eunuch in charge last time...
"The second princess is here!"
"Mother..."
Li Qianxue was also frightened by the mess in front of her and felt that she had nowhere to stay after entering the hall.
After seeing the visitor, Concubine Rou relaxed her expression, turned around and sat down on the couch.
Li Qianxue stepped forward to greet her mother. She was also afraid of her angry mother.
"Your son has come to pay his respects to Mother, and would like to come and see her..."
The woman on the couch closed her eyes and let the palace maid beside her massage her temples.
"I don't need you to worry about me. If you have this time, you'd better teach you the art of music, chess, calligraphy and painting!"
"I don't want to see the embarrassment I made at the palace banquet again. Do you understand?"
Concubine Rou's voice was cold and her face was icy.
She must demand the best from her two children!
But now, one or two of them will only give her a headache!
Li Qianxue lowered her head even lower, her eyes filled with fear for her mother.
"I know my mistake..."
Seeing this, Concubine Rou just sighed lightly. After all, she was her own daughter, and she couldn't bear to be too harsh on her.
"By the way, I asked you to go see your royal brother. Did you go?"
Li Qianxue became a little angry when she mentioned this, her red lips pouting and a hint of grievance in her eyes.
"I went there! But... my brother locked me outside the palace and wouldn't let me in!"
Concubine Rou did not expect Li Junlin to do this. Her beautiful eyes suddenly opened, revealing anger that could not be concealed.
"This Lin'er! She's really becoming more and more disobedient!"
Seeing that her mother's anger had been diverted by her royal brother, Li Qianxue finally dared to approach her.
"But mother, after I didn't go to Prince Cheng's Mansion, I went to Ji's Mansion and met Ji Qingwan."
Instead of relaxing her expression, Concubine Rou's expression showed a hint of disgust.
"Why did you go to see her?"
Concubine Rou felt very resentful about Ji Qingwan's father's wavering behavior in the court.
In addition, Ji Qingwan was not her most preferred daughter-in-law, so she disliked her even more.
Li Qianxue knelt behind Concubine Rou and massaged her shoulders, telling her all the information she had received from Ji Qingwan.
"Lin'er is taking her to Wujiang?!"
"It's so confusing!"
The woman slammed the table on the couch, her red lips tightly pursed, looking extremely angry.
"It's finally time to lift the ban, but he's so different! Instead of going to the court to win over the people, he's even thinking about taking Ji Qingwan out for fun!"
Seeing this, Li Qianxue hurriedly helped her to calm down, and her breathing became tense for a moment.
"No, Mother! My brother went to Wujiang just for my third brother!"
"Li Jinyuan? He's going too?"
"That's right!" Li Qianxue nodded and said that Jiang Li, Chu Changxun and others would also go.
The woman's frown finally relaxed. It seemed that Lin'er had not forgotten his purpose...
But... the woman's eyes flashed with a hint of viciousness.
Last time she didn't take his life in Changzhou, and he finally left the capital. She would never miss this opportunity.
Even if she couldn't take his life, she would destroy his reputation and make him isolated and helpless!
"Someone, go and call for the blood."
"Yes!"
……
The beginning of winter has passed, and although it is not that cold yet, the temperature difference between day and night is difficult to adapt to, let alone by the river.
Three carriages stopped at the ferry and the ferryman took them to the other side of the river.
On the black-sailed boat, Jiang Li and Lin Qingtang walked towards the bow curiously.
Even though half the river was still between them, the girl could already see her three-story attic from the corner of her eye.
I have to say that Mu Nan's movements were really fast. The ivy that had covered the entire wall had now been cleared away until not even a corner was visible.
When the group was about to reach the ferry, Jiang Li discovered that Mu Nan had already been waiting for them at the opposite ferry.
"Mu Nan!"
"Miss!"
Looking at the people getting off the black-sailed boat one after another, each of them was dressed elegantly and luxuriously. Such a huge scene made Mu Nan a little overwhelmed.
Jiang Li saw his embarrassment and patted his shoulder soothingly.
"Don't be nervous, they are all my friends, I want them to be the first guests of the B&B!"
"it is good!"
The entire B&B belongs to the young lady, and it is her right to let anyone stay there, and he will obey the young lady's orders without hesitation!
"My lords, ladies, and princes, please follow me."
Mu Nan's sight finally fell on a man in a black robe. He stood behind Jiang Li. The two were very close to each other. His handsome face, noble and indifferent, made it easy to guess his identity.
Mu Nan was still a little surprised at Li Jinyuan's appearance. He remembered that the young lady seemed reluctant to mention him, and even didn't allow him to call her princess.
I thought their relationship was indeed as rumored, but I didn't expect the princess to bring the prince with her...
……
In front of the dark white courtyard, Mu Nan slowly pushed open the charming wooden door.
As you cross the threshold, the structure of the courtyard immediately comes into view.
The ground is covered with irregular stones, the surface of which is polished smooth. The ink-colored stones border the grayish-white land, creating a strong visual impact.
There were a lot of green vegetation on both sides of the road, but perhaps due to the season, they could see that many flowers had not bloomed yet.
The cobblestone path is interspersed among the vegetation, making it even more quiet.
“This place is so big…”
Lin Qingtang couldn't help but open her mouth wide. It was the first time she saw such a unique courtyard. The most important thing was that there was a pond, a pavilion, and many lush flowers and plants. It was really planned in a special way.
Lin Ci walked curiously towards a slightly higher wooden platform, on which there was a shorter square wooden table and several small stools with chairs.
It was the first time the boy saw such a short and unusual-looking stool, and he sat on it out of curiosity.
"what is this?"
Mu Nan looked at him sideways, her thin lips curled slightly, this was all designed by the young lady.
"This place is for guests to barbecue, chat and enjoy the night view."
Lin Ci became interested as soon as he heard it.
"Barbecue? What the hell? Is it fun?!"
