Yanmenchun

Chapter 66

Shentu Danlin's injury had already been bandaged, and he was so weak that he could feel dizzy just sitting up.

When the maid heard the movement, she hurried forward and lifted the curtain.

This room is elegantly decorated, with fine sandalwood tables and chairs with delicate patterns, the brocade carpet on the floor is extraordinarily luxurious, even the curtains raised by the maids are also of fine cloud silk.

He coughed lightly and said, "Where is this?"

His voice was hoarse and weak.

At this moment, his face was pale and his hair was disheveled. Perhaps because of the medicine he had taken, his lips were bright red, and his beauty was shocking. The maid who saw her blushed and said softly, "Go back to Lord Hou, this is Prince Yan's Mansion."

As soon as the words fell, Shentuchan who heard the movement pushed the door and walked in, and said eagerly: "Brother, are you okay?"

Shentu Danlin nodded and said, "Where is the princess?"

Shen Tuchan carefully looked at his expression before saying: "Princess is not awake yet, but the fever has subsided, not as serious as yours, it's all right."

Shentu Danlin finally let go of his heartstrings, and asked Shentuchan how he found him.

Shentuchan told about her and King Yan's search of the brothel, Shentu Danlin frowned and said, "You showed up?"

Shen Tuchan smiled and poured him a cup of tea: "Don't worry, I'm wearing a veil."

It's all right now, there is no danger, so Shentuchan told Jiang Lan that he would punish Shentu Danlin with twenty sticks.

There was no resistance or reluctance on Shentu Danlin's face, he just nodded with a flat expression.

It's already this hour, and they have to go back to Zhenbeihou Mansion as soon as possible.

Shuangquan brought people to help Shentu Danlin into the carriage, and Shentuchan went to say goodbye to Jiang Lan.

When she came over, Princess Ningguo was already awake, the maid was feeding her porridge, and Jiang Lan was sitting beside her.

Her small face was pale, and when she saw Shen Tuchan, she still smiled and said, "Achan."

Shen Tuchan stepped forward and touched her face lovingly in her heart: "Is there any discomfort in the princess?"

Princess Ningguo shook her head, but instead asked, "Where is Young Master?"

Shen Tuchan didn't know why her first reaction was to look at Jiang Lan first, so she had no choice but to answer lightly: "Okay, I'm going home, come to say goodbye to the princess."

Princess Ningguo was relentless: "I don't remember what happened, does he still remember? How did you rescue me? Did the young master save me?"

She grabbed Shen Tuchan's sleeve and asked while shaking it.

Shen Tuchan felt that Jiang Lan might eat people if she continued to ask, so she gently comforted her: "No, His Highness saved you. My brother is not with you, and he doesn't know."

Princess Ningguo let out a disappointment.

Shen Tuchan got up and saluted Jiang Lan: "Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty, I will leave."

Jiang Lan looked up at the door and said, "Come in."

Shen Tuchan turned her head to look, and the one-eyed guard came in.

As soon as he came in, he greeted Shentu Chan: "See Miss."

Shen Tuchan looked at Jiang Lan. Jiang Lan's face was indifferent, but his tone was very gentle: "Let him send you back, and he will be at your command in the future."

Before Shentuchan could speak, he looked at the guard and said coldly, "Hu Dao, if you dare to disrespect Miss Shentu, I don't want your eyes, I want your life."

Hu Dao knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this subordinate will definitely obey Miss Shentu's orders."

Shen Tuchan didn't look at Hu Dao, and said to Jiang Lan: "Thank you, Your Highness, and my servant will go back."

Jiang Lan nodded, and Shen Tuchan backed away gently.

Shen Tuchan was still wearing last night's clothes, her hair was combed again, but she hadn't slept all night, she must have been haggard. She put on light makeup and even some rouge, her face was dazzling.

Watching her go, Jiang Lan subconsciously asked the maid who brought Shen Tuchan in just now: "Who ordered her makeup?"

The maid was taken aback for a moment, then she immediately reacted and knelt down and said, "Return to Your Highness, it's a servant girl."

She didn't understand what Jiang Lan meant by this. She actually saw Jiang Lan's gentleness towards Miss Shentu, and couldn't help flattering her, so she mentioned: "You don't look very well. Put on some makeup."

Jiang Lan hummed and said, "Next time, give her the jewelry that the queen mother gave her."

The maid suddenly thanked her with both surprise and joy, it seemed that she was really trying to please the right person.

When Shen Tuchan returned to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, the old lady had already finished her breakfast, she asked Shuangquan to help Shentu Danlin back, and went to see the old lady alone.

Today is the first day of the new year, and the old lady is waiting for her to come to pay New Year's greetings.

Shen Tuchan came in without changing her clothes. She rarely put on makeup in the past, but when she came in now, the old lady only felt that her eyes brightened.

There were also fewer complaints about Shen Tuchan's failure to return all night: "As soon as Miss Chan came in, I felt that my room was bright!"

Shen Tuchan smiled and said: "Naturally dress better for the New Year, and pay New Year's greetings to grandma, grandma will be blessed with good health and a long life!"

Nanny Kong hurried forward to help her up.

The old lady smiled and pointed to the maid next to her, "Hurry up and help me give the red envelope to our eldest lady."

The maid also had a festive smile on her face, and she stepped forward and said: "Missy looks gorgeous, Lan Xinhui is kind, servants and servants also wished Missy a New Year."

Shentuchan took the red envelope with a smile, and the old lady asked about Shentu Danlin.

Shen Tuchan sat down next to her and said with a smile: "Brother met Yan Wang by chance last night, a group of people had a few drinks together, and they fell asleep and still haven't woken up."

The young men gathered together to drink and play. The old lady didn't think there was anything wrong. She heard that he was there, so she smiled and said, "I will ask the kitchen to send some hangover soup."

Shentuchan nodded and ordered Xiaoman to go seriously.

Only then did the old lady reproachfully said: "You are Miss Da, how could you be so capricious last night."

Then Shen Tuchan said apologetically: "Grandmother, please punish me. I drank some fruit wine with Sisi last night, and went out to watch the fireworks together. It's my granddaughter's fault for not being on time."

The old lady nodded her head and said: "I always thought that you have been stable in the past two years, but you are still skinny, copying scriptures ten times."

Shen Tuchan immediately nodded with a smile on her face.

Back in her yard, Chun Equinox had prepared hot water and meals. She didn't follow last night, but she had listened to Xiaoman just now, and it was thrilling.

Shen Tuchan sat down on the chair with some exhaustion, and Chunfeng helped her take off the jewelry while saying: "Miss, take a bath, eat something and go to sleep, the servant will call you at lunch."

Shen Tuchan nodded, seeing that she was fine except a little tired, she said with a smile: "Miss, today's make-up is really beautiful."

Shen Tuchan didn't speak, this makeup was done because she was afraid that the old lady would see the clues, she had tossed all night, and now she still feels that the heavy powder on the veil in the brothel envelops her head and face.

Xiaoman was also exhausted last night, but she was still walking around the room at this moment.

Shen Tuchan was dizzy from her turn, and couldn't help but said: "If you are not tired, go out and do some work."

Only then did Xiao Man stop in his tracks, and said in a rare moment: "Miss, this servant has discovered a secret."

Shentuchan heard the words and said absent-mindedly: "What secret?"

She immediately smiled shyly: "This servant thinks that His Royal Highness King Yan might like you."

Shen Tuchan was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly remembered that she held hands with Jiang Lan today, Jiang Lan even lifted her onto the horse, she glanced at Xiaoman and said: "Things happen for a reason, don't talk nonsense."

Xiao Man groaned, she didn't quite understand, how could there be a reason why King Yan tied her a veil and put on a cape.

But when Shen Tuchan said this, she didn't think too much, and went out in frustration.

Shen Tuchan was lying on the bed only to remember to ask the spring equinox: "Did the red envelopes of the slaves and maids below be distributed?"

Chun Equinox rubbed her temples distressedly: "Miss, don't worry, everything has been delivered according to your previous arrangement, and the second lady has also arranged the work for these few days properly!"

After the vernal equinox finished speaking, she took a closer look and found that Shen Tuchan had already fallen asleep.
