Chapter 164 Chu Er, what do you think of His Royal Highness Prince Chen?
Chapter 164 Chu Er, what do you think of His Royal Highness Prince Chen?
Seeing her say this, Mu Yanchen didn't want to force her, so he continued reading.
When Ji Yunchu saw this, he had no choice but to lift the curtain and look out the window.
Three quarters of an hour later, the carriage stopped at the gate of the Su Mansion. Ji Yunchu got off the carriage quickly and waited by the side. He raised his hand and said with a smile, "Your Highness, I will help you get off the carriage."
Seeing that she was so proactive in showing her goodwill, Mu Yanchen cooperated and reached out to hold her hand and got off the carriage. But after getting off the carriage, he still held her hand and walked all the way to the Su Mansion.
Upon seeing this, one of the doormen quickly ran into the inner courtyard to report.
"Madam, Madam, Prince Chen has brought Miss Cousin back to the palace!"
Madam Su, who was sitting in the pavilion with Madam Su, heard this and said to the old lady with a smile, "Mother, wait here. I will go and welcome our nephew-in-law."
Madam Su was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. "Okay, okay, go quickly!"
Madam Su left happily, and Old Madam Su quickly told the maid to make tea and bring up new cakes.
After a while, Madam Su brought Ji Yunchu and Mu Yanchen to Old Madam Su.
When Madam Su saw them holding hands, her heart blossomed with joy, but she pretended to be calm as she stood up. Just as she was about to salute, she was stopped by Mu Yanchen in time: "Madam, there is no need to be polite. Miss Ji drank too much last night, so I had someone take her to the palace to rest. I didn't send her back directly. Please forgive me."
"I understand, yes..." Old Madam Su said with a smile.
But before she could finish her words, Madam Su suddenly interrupted her, "Hahaha, Your Majesty, I can understand what my mother-in-law means, but you also know that our Chu'er is a young girl, and if she stays alone in your house, people will say that she doesn't know how to be modest and has no self-respect.
This morning, the servants who went out to buy things in the mansion said that people in the streets were saying that Chu Er had drunk too much last night and left the table halfway through and disappeared. Someone saw her leaving with a man. I won’t say any more unpleasant words afterwards, and Your Majesty can probably guess what they will say.”
Ji Yunchu didn't expect that the two people who drugged her would fail to frame her and instead spread rumors to ruin her reputation. She said angrily, "Aunt, I was toasted by Ji Yunrou and Jiang Wenyuan at the palace banquet. Although I don't know who drugged me, I left the scene as soon as I found out something was wrong. Later, thanks to the prince who rescued me, I was not framed. But I didn't expect them to use rumors to deal with me."
After hearing this, Madam Su and Madam Su were filled with heartache, especially Madam Su, who was so angry that she stood up and said, "Chu'er, you stay in the mansion. Your aunt will go to settle accounts with Ji Yunrou!"
Seeing that she was about to leave after she finished speaking, Ji Yunchu hurriedly stood up to stop her: "Aunt, no, nothing has happened yet. If you go looking for trouble with her now, she will definitely bite you back. You see, I have nothing to lose now, so why don't you just bear with it for now? When there is a chance, I will definitely let her have a taste of being drugged!"
When Madam Su heard that her granddaughter dared to speak so directly about these inferior methods in the presence of a man, she was so embarrassed that she quickly apologized: "Your Highness, I'm sorry, Chu'er was so angry that she spoke so bluntly, please don't misunderstand!"
Mu Yanchen raised his lips slightly, and then said, "Madam Su, don't worry, I didn't hear anything just now. And don't worry, I will let someone spread the news that she stayed overnight in the palace last night, so that the rumors outside will naturally come to nothing."
Madam Su didn't expect that he would speak out his plan without hesitation, which saved her the trouble of trying to cover up the rumors. So she said gratefully, "Then I'll trouble you, Your Majesty!"
"You're welcome." Mu Yanchen stood up and looked at Madam Su and Ji Yunchu, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Please stay."
"Farewell, Prince Chen!" Several people saluted behind him.
"Chu'er, come here!" Old Madam Su waved at her.
Ji Yunchu came to sit in front of her honestly, "What's wrong, grandma?"
Madam Su said earnestly, "Chu'er, what do you think of His Royal Highness Prince Chen?"
Ji Yunchu: "..."
This familiar line was something she had never experienced before, but she had seen it many times on the Internet. However, this was the first time she was asked this question. She couldn't help but think about it seriously. From the first time they met until now, they had not had much time to get to know each other, but she also roughly understood that he was a big iceberg, very cold to everyone, and a good prince who was dedicated to the people.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Madam Su joked, "Look, Chu'er is embarrassed now, hahaha."
Ji Yunchu was speechless. She was not embarrassed at all. She was just recalling the past to understand what kind of person he was.
"Yuhan, sit down, stop laughing, and listen carefully to Chuer's thoughts." Old Madam Su scolded.
Just when Ji Yunchu was being questioned by his parents about his feelings towards his partner, Minister Ji, who had taken leave to recuperate at home, also heard from his attendants that Ji Yunchu had left with a man late at night. He finally came back to his senses from his self-blame, immediately washed up, changed into clean clothes, and hurried to the gate of the mansion.
When I arrived at the front yard, I saw Ji Heng and asked him to prepare the carriage.
