Chapter 12
Chu Xiao's husband and wife watched as Jiang Wanruo and Ji Yan got on the carriage, both of them slightly relaxing. Chu Yangshi reached out to tightly grab onto Jiang Wanruo. Just as Jiang Wanruo was about to smile and greet Chu Xiao's couple, Chu Xiao raised his hand to stop her, saying in a low voice: "Xiao Lan, you must thoroughly shake off the people from the Wang Fu who are following behind you. For now, it's just temporary that we've shaken them off. They're underestimating you too much and don't have much guard against you. Once they come to their senses, they'll be able to find your trail soon."
In the afternoon, at the south gate, a simple horse carriage drove over and slowly stopped at the city gate. The guarding soldiers walked to the side of the carriage for inspection. A young soldier lifted the curtain door with his hand and saw three women wearing plain clothes inside the carriage. They hastily raised their heads, quickly glanced at him, and immediately lowered their eyebrows. The driver, with a simple expression, tightly held the reins, sweating profusely as he explained: "My wife and two sisters-in-law are unsophisticated, they don't dare greet you, sir. I borrowed this horse carriage from my neighbor to bring them into the city for some fun, but now we have to hurry back home, there's still a lot of work to be done."
Chu Dang was riding his horse, and as he passed the south gate, he saw the appearance of the city guards. He let out a heavy "hmm". The guard turned around and asked in surprise: "Master Chu, isn't it too early or too late for this hour? Where are you going on official business?" Chu Dang looked at him with an unpleasant expression and said: "Don't ask about this trivial matter, today I spoke too loudly, my wife punished me to go to the courtyard outside the city and calm down for a few days."
The south gate guard was talking about the interesting story of Chu Mai, while the people from the Wang Fu were searching for Jiang Wanru and Ji Yan's whereabouts everywhere. One group went to the Wang Fu to report the news, another group went to the city gate, and King Wang and the Crown Prince were the first to know the news. Both of them looked at the messenger with some disbelief, listening to him say again "After the third lady left the Wang Fu, we followed her. We saw her go to the fabric store in East City to buy things, then enter the pastry shop on South Street..."
The king and queen had been dealing with their son's misbehavior for many years, but no matter what they did, he still acted recklessly. Although he never caused any major trouble, small problems kept popping up, and people often came to the palace to complain about his behavior. The couple had considered punishing him severely once, hoping that would make him behave better.
The king thought about the past, and on the way, he ran into the eldest son who was also going to the old queen's house. He looked at his sensible eldest son and sighed: "Your younger brother has never been a worry-free person, this woman who married in casually, it took three years for everyone to be worry-free. These days, under his influence, she won't be a worry-free person either." Lian Ang had heard from the old people in the mansion that when his grandfather was young and vigorous, he disciplined his father's generation very strictly, the kind of discipline that made you gasp for air, not allowing you to breathe freely.
The king and the prince entered the old queen's courtyard, just in time to hear her joyful laughter. The two men stopped the announcer from announcing their arrival, and they quietly entered the room. They saw Lian Hao leaning against the old queen's shoulder, whispering something into her ear, making her laugh so hard that her eyes were narrowed. When the king and prince arrived, the old queen glanced at them casually and said: "Come sit down quickly, we'll have a meal together soon. Mu Tong is really good at telling stories, this one has made me laugh so much my belly hurts."
The old queen consort gazed at her eldest son and grandson by her side, listening to the youngest grandson's words, her eyes overflowing with amusement. After lunch, the king had some business to attend to, and the old queen consort wanted to rest for a while after digesting her food. Lian Ang and Lian Hao naturally stood up and bid their leave. As they walked halfway out, Lian Ang saw the person who came to report and noticed their slightly shaking heads. He waved his hand to let them retreat. Turning around to face Lian Hao, whose face was still full of smiles, he said under his astonished gaze: "Wooden head, our people have lost track of Miss Jiang; they secretly searched for her in the city but couldn't find any trace of her or her maid."
Lian Hao shook his head in disbelief and said, "Big brother, you can't fool me. It's clear that both you and Father suspect her behavior, which is why you're being so cautious around her. Big brother, I've told you before that I want to settle her in my separate courtyard. But I never told you that it's because I knew that once she left the Wang Manor, she would have nowhere else to go, and with her temperament, she wouldn't accept the Wang Manor's arrangements either. I couldn't bear to let her drift aimlessly outside, so I had no choice but to make such arrangements for her. My heart has never looked down on her, and for the sake of her reputation, I won't stay overnight in the separate courtyard, but will return to the camp to spend the night."
She knew how to keep a low profile in the Wang Manor, and in the end, she was able to leave peacefully. She even managed to make outsiders admire her life story, which is quite impressive for a woman. I had someone investigate her background at the Jiang household, and it turned out that apart from occasionally sneaking out of the back door to stroll around town, there wasn't much fault to be found with her behavior. In the Wang Manor, she never took an extra step without permission. This kind of woman isn't as weak as you imagine; even if she leaves the manor and doesn't rely on you, I believe she'll still be able to live a peaceful life with her own abilities.
