Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 128 One Night

The dishes at Cuishinfang are really pleasing to the eye after they are served on the table. They are like exquisite works of art that make people unable to bear to move their chopsticks and just want to admire them quietly.

"I suspect it's not the cook who's cooking, but the painter." Yao Shanzhi joked.

"A painter who can't cook is not a good cook." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

Colorful cold cuts, red, yellow, green, vegetables and fruits of various colors are cleverly arranged on the plate, like a living oil painting, which is eye-catching.

The steaming soup is like the mist in the morning, lingering in the mountains, which is refreshing and refreshing.

"The color is here, the aroma is here, let's see how it tastes?" Zhao Wangshu took up his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, "This fish tastes amazing, the outside is golden and crispy, and the inside is tender and juicy."

"With a gentle bite, the fish melts in your mouth, accompanied by the rich sauce, which makes people have endless aftertaste." Yao Shanzhi agreed.

Food needs to be shared, and two delicious girls can share the delicious food together.

After lunch, Yao Shanzhi seemed to be in a better mood, but Zhao Wangshu knew that it was just an appearance.

"Yue'er, let's go to the game hall to play." Yao Shanzhi said.

"Okay." Zhao Wangshu would do anything to make her happy.

"Play chess." Yao Shanzhi said deliberately.

Zhao Wangshu stretched out a finger and said, "Play a round."

"Play more games, good moon." Yao Shanzhi said coquettishly.

"Two rounds." Zhao Wangshu conceded.

"How about playing three games?"

"Yao Shanzhi, don't push yourself too far." Zhao Wangshu shook his finger.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two of them took a carriage and went to the game hall, where they spent half a day and then went home.

In the evening, when the Zhao family was having dinner, Mrs. Hao suddenly came to the door. She, who was always polite, didn't even bother to say hello to Mrs. Zhao Cui and others, so she asked anxiously. "Wangshu, where did Danyang go?"

"I don't know." Zhao Wangshu was confused.

"You asked her out, but she hasn't come back yet."

"I didn't make an appointment with her. I'm with the Lord of Yixing County all day today."

Mrs. Hao's face turned pale, "Danyang went out this morning and hasn't come back yet."

Xu Danyang was never one to leave things to his own, and he would never worry his elders by coming home late.

Zhao Wangshu's heart sank, "Have you reported to the official?"

"No, we have to take Danyang's reputation into consideration." Mrs. Hao was worried.

"Madam, please don't worry. Danyang is auspicious and everything will be fine." Zhao Wangshu comforted her, but her heart was in confusion.

An accident happened not long ago, why was Xu Danyang not alert at all?
  "You guys eat, I'm going back first." Mrs. Hao turned around and walked out in a panic.

"husband"

"Yue'er, don't cause trouble." Mrs. Zhao Cui stopped her.

"Oh." Zhao Wangshu knew that her family would not let her go out to find someone.

"Don't worry, I'll find it." Zhao Yin stood up and said.

"Brother, please bring more people."

Zhao Yin brought ten martial arts masters to find someone. When Zhao Wangshu was nearing her age, her family members all went to bed. She was still sitting in the hall, looking at the door eagerly.

"Girl, it's very late. Don't wait any longer. Get some rest early." Lady Qiao advised.

"Mrs. Buckwheat, you go and have a rest first. I'll wait." Zhao Wangshu picked up the tea cup and took another sip of strong tea. She really hadn't stayed up late for a long time. Without the support of strong tea, she would have fallen asleep and lost consciousness. . Lady Qiao looked at her and knew that she had made up her mind, so she stopped trying to persuade her and just said, "Girl, don't worry too much. The young master will definitely bring you good news."

"I hope so." Zhao Wangshu was quite uneasy.

Xu Danyang has been missing for such a long time, maybe he has been transported out of the city long ago.

Time passed by, and in the dead of night, Hong Chang and Lv Zhi fell asleep together. Zhao Wangshu's eyelids were fighting and he yawned several times. It was so late and strong tea didn't work.

At the beginning of Zishi, Zhao Yin came back with an ugly face.

Zhao Wangshu's heart suddenly sank, "Have you found it?"

Zhao Yin shook his head and said nothing.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother, let's rest first." Although Zhao Wangshu was worried about Xu Danyang's safety, he could not ignore his brother's health.

Her eldest brother has to go to the Yamen tomorrow, and the Hanlin Academy is quite busy.

In the early morning, Zhao Wangshu was still sleeping, and Luzhi came in to wake her up, "Girl, Miss Xu has been found."

Zhao Wangshu suddenly woke up. She didn't even put on her shoes and was about to walk out. Luzhi quickly grabbed her and said, "Girl, you haven't washed up yet."

"Quick, quick, let them bring water in." Zhao Wangshu urged.

Zhao Wangshu washed and dressed neatly and went to Hao's house.

When she rushed to Hao's house, she met Hao Shi and his wife seeing Prince Xiangzheng out.

After Prince Xiangzheng got on the carriage, she got off the carriage and greeted Hao Shi and his wife, "Danyang, is she okay?"

"I was a little frightened and sprained my foot, but everything else is fine." Mrs. Hao's expression was a bit complicated, as if she hadn't finished speaking.

When Zhao Wangshu met Xu Danyang and learned from her that the person who rescued Xu Danyang was the Prince of Xiangzheng County, he understood why Mrs. Hao was so upset.

Xu Danyang also told her, "The prince rescued me outside the city. When we arrived at the city gate, the city gate was closed and we couldn't enter the city, so we went to his other courtyard."

"That means you stayed with him all night?" Zhao Wangshu asked with a frown.

Xu Danyang nodded, "The city gate opened this morning, and the prince sent me back."

Zhao Wangshu went to bed late and got up early. Now his head hurt suddenly. He rubbed his temples and said, "In just a few days, two things have happened to you. Don't go out until you catch the person behind the scenes."

"understood."

"Also, don't go out if anyone asks you. If I want to find you, I will come over." Zhao Wangshu continued to warn.

"I know." Xu Danyang nodded obediently.

Things turned out just as Mrs. Hao and Zhao Wangshu feared. Prince Xiangzheng came to visit the injured Xu Danyang for several days in a row.

After all, the Prince of Xiangzheng County saved Xu Danyang. Hao Shi and his wife couldn't help but turn him away. Seeing him coming to the house every day, they were very worried that Xu Danyang would be deceived by his sweet words.

Mrs. Hao told Xu Danyang: "Prince Xiangzheng is your majesty's second son. At the New Year's Eve banquet, he begged your majesty to designate the eldest girl from the Duke of Shen's palace to him as his princess."

"Not long ago, the princess had a miscarriage, but the princess is pregnant again, and the prince's palace will have a baby soon."

"In this court ceremony, in this county prince's palace, the only ones who can be honored are the main concubine and the two side concubines, and the others are concubines."

"The Prince of Xiangzheng County married the main concubine and also took in two side concubines."

"Danyang, when you get haircut, your aunt will definitely choose a good husband for you."

Xu Danyang understood what Mrs. Hao meant, "Thank you auntie, I will listen to auntie."

Mrs. Hao felt a little relieved now, but within a few days, it was reported from the Xiangzheng County Prince's Palace that Concubine Wu was the culprit who caused the Princess to fall and cause the miscarriage.

After harming the princess, the concubine Wu would naturally be punished. She was demoted from the concubine to the concubine, and the position of the concubine of the Prince of Xiangzheng was vacant.
