Chen Liuliu said sadly, "Nothing, change your clothes first and we'll talk in the carriage."
Zi'an had no choice but to hold his clothes and slowly walk behind the screen.
Murong Jie glared at her, looking angry.
Zi'an put his finger on his lips and said in spoken language: "Don't make a sound."
Murong Jie turned away with a sour look, but turned back quickly and looked her up and down, as if waiting for her to change clothes.
Zi'an was generous and took off her outer clothes. Murong Jie looked at her undergarments curiously. Zi'an glared at him without saying anything and quickly put on her clothes.
Then, she whispered in his ear, "Don't go out until we leave, and don't let anyone see you."
After saying this, he left immediately regardless of Murong Jie's anger.
"Okay, let's go." Zi'an picked up the medicine box and was about to leave.
Murong Zhuangzhuang stood up and was about to leave with Chen Liuliu when they heard a "Achi" sound from behind the screen. Although they tried their best to muffle it with their hands, the sound was too close and it was impossible for them to pretend not to hear it.
Murong Zhuangzhuang turned his head suspiciously, "Who is behind the screen?"
"A maid is washing clothes." Zi'an's face turned green. Couldn't he just endure it a little longer
"Washing clothes here?" Murong Zhuangzhuang walked over quickly and saw Murong Jie squatting on the ground barefoot, looking pitiful, with his shoes in his hands, his hair loose and his clothes in disarray.
"Seventh Brother?" Murong Zhuangzhuang raised his voice, unable to believe his eyes.
A regent king, wise and powerful, but hiding in a woman's boudoir like a poor little thing? He didn't even have shoes on. If someone saw him like this, his reputation would be ruined.
Zi'an put down the medicine box with a clang, and walked over to the doctor. He said very seriously, "Princess, I can explain. We were just talking about serious matters."
Chen Liuliu changed her previous dejected expression and said excitedly, "Serious matters? What serious matters are you talking about here in your disheveled clothes? I want to hear it."
“This…” Zi’an looked at Murong Jie for help, hoping that he would come out to save the situation.
But Murong Jie looked at her with glee, waiting for her to talk about "serious matters".
"You were changing clothes here just now." Murong Zhuangzhuang looked at her and said.
Murong Jie walked out in a grand manner, picked up his outer garment, put it on, and sat in front of the dressing table, "Xia Zian, come here and put on your crown."
Zi'an walked over and picked up the comb, gnashing his teeth and saying, "Can't you help me say a few words?"
"I will not lie with my eyes open. I always thought you were a man who dared to take responsibility for your actions. I never thought you would rather make up such a lame excuse than tell the truth."
"Truth?" Chen Liuliu looked at the mess on the bed and imagined how crazy last night must have been.
She is so envious!
Zi'an pulled his hair and said, "There is no truth. You were the one who got drunk and came to my place to act wild."
"Going wild?" Chen Liuliu moved closer and looked at the two of them in a daze. Oh my god, it sounded so crazy.
"Acting wild? Aren't you happy?" Murong Jie glanced at her.
Chen Liuliu looked at Zi'an jealously, "She must be happy."
"Liu Liu!" Zi'an glanced at her angrily, "What are you thinking? It's not what you think."
Chen Liuliu said: "I have already thought of it very subtly, could it be even wilder?"
Murong Zhuangzhuang smiled and pulled her away, "Come on, just be envious, they have granted me a marriage, how are you and Xiao Tuo going?"
Chen Liuliu got angry when she talked about this. That day Xiao Tuo asked her out, and she was so happy that she had even prepared the medicine, planning to get him drunk and then have the matter settled. But who knew that he took Su Qing with him, and after they sat down and said less than a few words, he said he was going to the toilet, and he never came back.
Su Qing was still foolishly going to the toilet to look for him. This silly boy still didn't know that he was sold out by Xiao Tuo. He just thought that Xiao Tuo had left for something urgent.
"Xiao Tuo plans to introduce Su Qing to me." Chen Liuliu said depressedly.
Zi'an burst out laughing, "Is Xiao Tuo so funny?"
"Su Qing is nice, but a little effeminate." Chen Liuliu said, resting her chin on her hand.
Murong Zhuangzhuang said: "Whether it's Xiao Tuo or Su Qing, you just want someone to marry you. I believe your grandmother will be just as happy even if it's Su Qing."
"That's right." Chen Liuliu felt that she was going to get married anyway, so whether it was Su Qing or Xiao Tuo, as long as he was willing to marry her.
However, I always felt depressed and my chest was blocked.
After helping Murong Jie comb his hair, Xiaosun came in with tea. Seeing Murong Jie, she said, "Oh, the prince is here too. I pay my respects to the prince."
Murong Jie didn't even agree and just turned and left.
Xiaosun was stunned and asked, "The prince just came and left again?"
"Xiaosun, you are really confused." Murong Zhuangzhuang said with a smile.
Zi'an seemed very embarrassed, but looking at Murong Jie's back, he acted as if nothing had happened.
Well, she actually didn’t have anything to worry about. She was indeed very happy last night. She should avoid such things as taking advantage of others and acting like a good kid, or she would be punished by God.
When he was leaving, Nanny Yang also came back. Seeing that Zi'an was going to the Prince of Liang's Mansion, she said, "Wait a moment, Miss. I will go with you."
In the past, Nanny Yang would never go with her, and would never take the initiative to ask to go. But now that she had entered the palace, she wanted to go with her. Zi'an knew that the Queen must have become suspicious and put pressure on her.
When walking out, they talked about Aunt Sizhu.
Nanny Yang sighed softly, "Aunt Sizhu died tragically. She was just blindly loyal. She blindly supported whatever the noble concubine wanted to do. She really loved the prince and treated him like her own son."
"How did Aunt Sizhu die?" Murong Zhuangzhuang asked.
Nanny Yang said, "I heard that he was given a promotion, but I don't know what he did wrong."
"The noble concubine seemed to rely on her very much, why would she order her death?" Chen Liuliu asked in confusion.
Murong Zhuangzhuang asked Zi'an, "You know that, right?"
Zi'an thought of what Murong Jie said last night and said softly, "I don't know, but he was definitely sentenced to death."
I guess Murong Jie didn't want people to know that Aunt Sizhu was sentenced to death in order to protect him.
The four of them walked out, with Nanny Yang sitting in the front of the carriage and the other three sitting inside.
"I heard that before Aunt Sizhu died, the noble concubine went to the palace to find the empress dowager and said that she wanted the seventh child to recognize Sizhu as his adoptive mother." Zhuangzhuang looked up at Zi'an, "Now that Sizhu is dead, she has no children. The seventh child is her only child. According to the rules, the seventh child has to observe mourning for her for a year."
Chen Liuliu looked at Zi'an with a gloating look, "That means you can't marry the prince within a year? What if you get pregnant?"
Zi'an said unhappily, "Put away that annoying expression on your face. I won't be pregnant. He and I are innocent. Nothing happened last night."
"Nothing happened? You're such a waste!" Chen Liuliu looked at her sympathetically.
Murong Zhuangzhuang laughed, "Okay, Liu Liu, no one needs to sleep with someone in order to marry him like you do. Just be quiet for a while, okay?"
Chen Liuliu said in annoyance: "How can you be quiet? I am so annoyed. I don't like Su Qing."
"You make it sound like Su Qing must like you. My suggestion is that you pretend to interact with Su Qing first. Of course, Su Qing will definitely not want to do that, so you have to give Su Qing some sweet treats." Zi'an leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.
After listening to this, Chen Liuliu nodded excitedly, "Good idea."
