Yuan Su Jinruo had been working and sleeping very little the entire time, and had not eaten well, so he must have been feeling dizzy. In this situation, Yuan Su Jinruo was basically unable to react at all.
Fortunately, when the carriage was just one foot away from the original Su Jinruo, it stopped in time.
The coachman was Ninth Prince Shen Fan's personal bodyguard. Presumably, it was because his master's temperament was good, and also because of that.
He did not scold and scold Su Jinruo like a normal coachman. He only waited quietly for Su Jinruo to leave.
And on that day, Shen Fan had only asked a few questions:
What happened?
Was it An Ran?
After that, they heard Su Jinruo Yuan's apologetic voice. After he elegantly replied that there was nothing wrong with it, the carriage passed him and quickly left.
And why did it say that the person Su Jinruo met was Ninth Prince Shen Fan, it was because of the white jade flute hanging diagonally on the curtain of the carriage?
That was … It was something unique to Shen Fan.
Other than Su Jinruo, she also had her own reasons.
Two years ago, Shen Fan was the Ninth Prince, and he had not even been conferred the title of Marquis. However, the moment Shen Fan was bestowed the title of Ninth Prince, he had to withdraw from the imperial court and hide in the prince's mansion.
The matters of the imperial court.
Along with the festival and festivals where family gathered, he had spent all of them in the palace and had never attended any palace banquets.
This was the reason why Su Jinruo had chosen Ninth Prince.
Choosing Shen Fan, Su Jinruo did not need to worry, as the current Son of Heaven had said that she was spouting nonsense. She also did not need to worry, she would definitely have something to do with Shen Fan.
It would save him a lot of unnecessary trouble.
"Why did Jinruo not answer?" Seeing that Su Jinruo still did not answer after a while, Prime Minister Su looked at Su Jinruo with a profound gaze, and asked.
Su Jinruo raised his eyes, looked at Prime Minister Su, and spoke with a tone that did not carry any emotions.
"Because even though Jinruo has lived for sixteen years, only one person who knows the Ninth Prince, an outsider like him."
That's right, how miserable was the original Su Jinruo's life.
Ever since Madame Li had taken charge of the residence of the general, Su Jinruo, this noble son of his, had been fiercely stepped on by Madame Li and was unable to reincarnate.
In every banquet, Madame Li would use a different excuse and reason to prevent from attending.
Just like Baili Miyun, although she was the direct daughter of a general, her father had married a new wife because her mother died long ago.
She had been tricked by her younger sister, whose parents were not together with her. She had fallen from the clouds and had been tortured by others until there were no traces of life left in her.
The circumstances of the two were shockingly similar.
At that time, one of the reasons that Su Jinruo helped Baili Miyun was because of this.
Hearing this, the Prime Minister Su was obviously startled, but Su Jinruo stared straight at him, his eyes unblinking, "Father, are you satisfied with Jinruo's reply?"
In the past, when Su Jinruo was suppressed by the Madame Li, everything fell behind and he did not become outstanding.
As a result, for Prime Minister Su who only needed talented people, he no longer cared about Su Jinruo and her body. He no longer cared about her diet and how much she ate or dressed up.
He had thrown Lv Ruo to the original Su Jinruo as a servant, and it was because of Prime Minister's Wife that he had such an open mouth.
Being stared at so undisguised by Su Jinruo, Prime Minister Su felt guilty, and quickly shifted his gaze away.
He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you handle this matter yourself. But you must remember, if you continue to joke about the reputation of the Prime Minister's Hall, I will definitely not forgive you. The thorns in your hand will fall on your body as you wish for the next ten years. Do you understand?"
Su Jinruo lowered her head, covering her head with a wide sleeve as the corner of her lips curled up slightly.
She said: "Many thanks for father's kindness. The reputation of the Prime Minister's Hall, Jinruo will definitely protect it well."
"Go down."
"Jinruo will be leaving now."
Su Jinruo got up with the thorns in his hands, stood up and took a few steps back, then turned around and opened the door, and slowly walked out of Prime Minister Su's room.
Watching Su Jinruo's back as he left, Prime Minister Su squinted his eyes and looked at the Xuan paper in his hand. There were a few words written on it:
Testing Su Jinruo
Walking out of the house, Su Jinruo's expression was calm, but Hong Ling walked forward and said to Su Jinruo: "Master, let this servant take it."
With that, Hong Ling took the thorns in Su Jinruo's hand and held them in his hands.
Su Jinruo looked at her, then said indifferently: "Let's go, it's time to return to the courtyard."
Hong Ling and Mu En answered respectfully: "Yes."
Su Jinruo walked out of the Prime Minister Su's courtyard at a leisurely pace when he first left, as if he was waiting for something.
Every young master in the prime minister's residence had their own scenery.
Originally, Su Jinruo owned Pear Garden, but Su Chi had a garden.
When passing by the flower pavilion in Su Chi's courtyard, Su Jinruo stayed for a while and randomly picked a few beautiful peony flowers, and asked: "This peony flower is really beautiful, Hong Ling, what do you think?"
Hong Ling looked at the peony in Su Jinruo's hand, nodded, and replied: "Reporting to adults, peonies are extremely charming, especially when it's in full bloom, it's even more enchanting, to the point of being extremely enchanting."
Peony means wealth... Su Jinruo touched the petals of the peony, following that, she raised her eyes and looked towards the direction of Pear Garden with her black pupils.
Judging by the time, it should be about time.
Prime Minister Su's courtyard was the farthest away from his own courtyard. Holding the thorns, he walked around the residence.
[There is no one in the Prime Minister's House who doesn't know that I have left!]
His own yard.
Su Jinruo and Hong Ling chatted all the way back.
Eucalyptus followed behind Su Jinruo without saying a word.
The cool summer wind blew over slowly, lifting up the fallen leaves on the ground. The leaves danced in the air and Su Jinruo reached out his hand, causing a dark yellow leaf to fall into his palm.
Without stopping in his tracks, Su Jinruo held onto the beautiful peony flower in one hand and the withered leaf in the other. Seemingly, she had no intention to ask Hong Ling about it, "Before you became my servant, where were you worth doing in the palace? "Dirty …"
Hong Ling replied respectfully: "This servant is on duty at the Headmaster's Courtyard, helping the chef and occasionally bringing food to some eunuchs and maids."
The Host Yuan...
Su Jinruo blinked her eyes and asked indifferently: "Where have you been working?"
"No, this servant entered the palace when I was young. I stayed at the Wan Court, the chamber and the Calming Fragrance Palace for a period of time, but when I was on duty at the Calming Fragrance Palace, this servant accidentally made a mistake and was demoted to the main branch. This is why this servant stayed there all the time."
Su Jinruo stopped and turned to look at Hong Ling, "You were at the Hall of Scented Fragrance before?"
Hall of Fragrance …
That was the place where the head of imperial concubines, the Noble Consort Xiang, lived.
In the palace, unless you have a backer, or... You are very clever and clever, and you can only walk up to the palace step by step when you are secretly watched by others.
The palace maids by the Imperial Concubine's side had most likely been carefully selected through many layers of selections. Their aptitude, looks, and intelligence were all first-class.
As for Hong Ling...
The expression in Su Jinruo's eyes wavered slightly as he looked at Hong Ling.
Hong Ling raised his head and said: "This servant did indeed once serve in Fragrance Palace, but I don't have much time. It was merely a short month."
Just as Su Jinruo was about to say something, Su Ranxiao suddenly ran in front of her.
Su Jinruo looked at Su Ranxiao.
Su Ranxiao Blessed his body, and then straightened up.
She held onto her handkerchief tightly, her big and watery eyes were filled with tears. Looking at Su Jinruo, she spoke weakly: "Third brother, Xiao'er has finally waited for third brother's return."
Su Jinruo looked at the woman who had an extremely miserable expression, and asked: "What happened to Fourth Sister? The red mark on his face … What's going on? "
On Su Ranxiao's fair face, there were five obvious finger marks;
Su Ranxiao lowered her head, her hair following her movements, falling onto her cheeks, "Reporting to Third Brother's words, this red mark … "This red stamp …"
While talking, Su Ranxiao suddenly stopped, and his face was filled with sorrow. The little girl Caiyi, who was by her side, took a step forward and said angrily: "Third Young Master might not know, but after young miss finished copying the Women's Scripture and was about to hand it over to Second Aunt for review, she was snatched away by Fifth Young Miss. Fifth Young Miss, after seeing my young miss's copy of the Women's Scripture, actually mocked my young miss's son.
However, the Fifth Miss did not say anything further and tore up the Women's Classic that she had copied from the Young Miss for an entire day. Second Madame had once said that she must hand it over today, and now that it was torn to shreds by the Fifth Miss, she could only go back to the house and copy another copy. However, Fifth Miss seemed to want to make trouble and only let Fifth Miss leave first so that she could copy the women's scripture in peace. However, Fifth Miss seemed to be so angry that she gave Fifth Miss a lifetime of hard work without even thinking.
Su Jinruo seemed to be puzzled as he said: "In the past, Fourth Sister has always been good to Fifth Sister, so why would Fifth Sister hit Fourth Sister so heavily?!"
Su Ranxiao did not say anything, but Caiyi was furious, "Fifth Miss has always been bad to Miss, if she is happy, she will not bully my Young Miss, and occasionally give her something she does not want. If she was unhappy, she would find trouble with my family's young miss. Even if there were no bones in the egg, she still insisted on having one. She treated my family's young miss like a punching bag to vent her dissatisfaction. Especially after the Third Young Master had punished the Fifth Miss, and the Fifth Miss had thought about it in front of everyone, her attitude towards our Young Miss had become even more severe, and she completely disregarded our Young Miss as a human being! "
Su Jinruo lightly glanced at the excited Caiyi, and then turned his gaze towards Su Ranxiao, "Since Fourth Sister has suffered so much, why didn't you talk to father about it?"
Looking for Daddy …
Is there any use in looking for him?
Su Ranxiao's mouth formed a bitter smile, she kneeled down on the ground, raised her head, looked at Su Jinruo, and said word by word:
"Let's not beat around the bush. Your father's character should be better understood by your third brother than Xiao'er. If Xiao'er finds him and allows him to make the decision to seek justice for Xiao'er, I'm afraid …" Xiao'er's future would only be even more miserable. A fine bird choosing a tree to perch on. Besides, Xiao'er was only one person. In this large Prime Minister's estate, only Third Brother could live well under the second concubine's watchful eyes.
Xiao'er knew that in the past, she had ignored the matter of her third brother being punished and humiliated. Although Xiao'er could only ignore it, she had inevitably hurt her third brother indirectly. I just want to ask for your forgiveness and father's help. I just don't want Assistant Minister Zhang to marry Xiao'er into the crown prince's subordinate, and in return, Xiao'er is willing to offer him a secret. I hope that third brother can agree to this small request of Xiao'er. "
Su Ranxiao kowtowed, "Xiao'er, please save your third brother."
