Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 158 Talking with the Empress Dowager

Shen Wanyu grabbed the white carrier pigeon on her shoulder and removed the paper strip tied to its foot.Open it and take a look, when you see the contents inside.The corner of her mouth curled up slightly, and her eyes were full of smiles.

It was the first time Shang Rui saw Shen Wanyu so happy, and couldn't help asking curiously: "What's the matter, what makes you so happy?"

Shen Wanyu handed the note to Shang Rui, and she took the note and looked down.

"Wow, I didn't expect Yufeng to be so efficient. You have already found a place, so you have taken a big step in establishing your own power."

Shang Rui returned the note to Shen Wanyu, she was really happy for Shen Wanyu.Everything is going according to her plan, and now that she has made such a big progress, it will be even better for her future development.

"Yeah, Yufeng's work efficiency is really good."

Shen Wanyu put the note into her hand and squeezed it hard.The note instantly turned into powder and was scattered into the air with the wind.

"I didn't expect you to learn martial arts. Looking at your posture, your internal strength is not bad?"

Shang Rui blinked and looked at Shen Wanyu. She remembered that she was also very curious about martial arts when she first timed over.I am very envious of those who know martial arts, they can fly over walls.

"My martial arts are just some fancy fists and embroidered legs. They were all taught by that Han Wang Persimmon."

Shen Wanyu reached out and touched the pigeon's head. Qiuzhu had already returned to the room when she saw the pigeon and prepared pens and paper for her.

Shen Wanyu wrote something, and then tied the note to the pigeon's ankle.Then he patted the carrier pigeon on the head, and said with a smile: "Little carrier pigeon, quickly write and hand this note to him."

Coo coo, the homing pigeon seemed to understand her words and flew away after fluttering its wings.

After the carrier pigeon flew away, Shen Wanyu stood up and looked at Shang Rui and said, "By the way, you are now grandma's granddaughter. Go and greet grandma when you are free, and you should walk around more with Second Aunt and Second Sister , don’t disappoint others’ wishes.”

Shang Rui made a face at Shen Wanyu, she felt a headache when she thought of dealing with those two people in the future.She suddenly regretted agreeing to Shen Wanyu and helping her act together.

"Okay, I see. Don't remind me again."

Shen Wanyu looked at Shang Rui's look that seemed to kill her, and burst out laughing.Her smile caught Shang Rui's eye.

"Haha, I forgot to tell you one thing. Grandmother seems to want you to participate in this year's Hundred Flowers Feast, so my dear Xiao Ruirui still has a few days to prepare for your talents."

After she finished speaking, she completely ignored Shang Rui who was a little irritable because of her words.He took Qiuzhu back to his room, ready to pack up and go into the palace.She promised to go to the palace today to find Mu Zhirui and tell her what kind of poison she planted.

Shang Rui looked angrily at Shen Wanyu's leaving back, she was causing trouble for herself.She even wanted to go to the palace to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, after all, it was just a group of girls performing their talents there.Then let those royal children and powerful children look for their wives? She doesn't want people to watch her like a monkey.

But since Shen Wanyu has said so, I am afraid that her grandmother will definitely let her go.The troubled Shang Rui finished her breakfast with a bitter face, stood up and left listlessly.

"Miss Shang, my lady said that Dongmei and I will be by your side and serve you in the future."

Xia Ju and Dong Mei came out of the small kitchen, they saw Shang Rui was about to leave with a bitter face.Xia Ju hastily called out to stop her.

Shang Rui turned to look at the speaker, and saw that it was Xia Ju and Dong Mei, the big maids beside Shen Wanyu.She was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm used to being alone, so I don't need someone to wait on me."

"Miss Shang, don't refuse, our lady said. Now that you are the lady of the Hou Mansion, you will naturally have a few maids to serve you. She is worried about other maids, so before you find your confidant maid, , Dongmei and I will follow by your side."

Xia Ju walked forward with a smile, this is something the young lady told them to do.

"I"

Before Shang Rui finished speaking, she was stopped by Shen Wanyu who had just walked out of the room.

"Don't refuse. I have too many maids around me now. I can rest assured that Xia Ju and Dongmei are with you. You know that I want to develop power. If you get close to me, maybe you will In danger. With the two of them by your side now, I can feel a little more at ease. Besides, I also hope that you can find some confidant maids and guards by your side, so don't make me worry about you."

Shen Wanyu knew that Shang Rui was used to being alone, but after Yufeng finished talking about that last time.She has always had this plan, Shang Rui is her best friend here.She didn't want her to put her in danger because of herself, so she could only let Shang Rui have some people around her to protect her just like herself.

Shang Rui glanced at the serious Shen Wanyu, knowing that she was worried about her own safety.She nodded: "Okay, I see. You go to work, I should also go to say hello to grandma. By the way, go and see how your second sister's dance practice is doing."

After speaking, she put the little things in her arms on the ground, and left Yuyuan with Dongmei and Xia Ju.

Looking at the direction where Shang Rui left, Shen Wanyu raised the corners of her mouth and showed a soft smile.She had a very happy life in this life, with a family who loved her, friends who loved her sincerely, and a man who loved her.

Thinking of Chu Mohan, Shen Wanyu's face unconsciously evoked a gentle smile.Qiuzhu looked at Shen Wanyu's gentle smile, she pursed her lips and stepped aside.

"Let's go, let's go to the palace."

The two left Hou's mansion and entered the palace directly.

Shen Wanyu went to the Empress Dowager's bedroom first, and greeted the Empress Dowager.He was talking and laughing with the queen mother, but his eyes looked in the direction of the bead curtain from time to time.Her actions were a bit obvious, even the Queen Mother could see it.

"Yu girl, what are you looking at?"

The Queen Mother put down the teacup in her hand, and she spoke casually.

"Queen Mother, didn't Princess Zhirui come to greet you today?"

Shen Wanyu withdrew her gaze and tilted her head to look at the Queen Mother.She didn't plan to make friends with Mu Zhirui without telling the queen mother, she still wanted to use the queen mother to do some things.

The queen mother raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Shen Wanyu in surprise.

"You like that Mu Zhirui very much?" Seeing Shen Wanyu nodding, she frowned: "Why do you like her?"

Shen Wanyu was waiting for the queen mother to ask her. She nodded her chin with her slender fingers and thought for a while before she said: "Princess Zhirui is not only beautiful, but also very kind. It would be great. But yesterday when I was walking with her in the imperial garden, I ran into the third princess, and we had some disputes. She even spoke for me, and the day when Princess Zhirui arrived in Dakun. I happened to be there On the street, I saw her speaking for a child. It can be seen from this that she is a very kind person. Therefore, Wanyu likes her very much."

The queen mother was a little surprised when she heard Shen Wanyu's words.It is not in her nature that she would teach such a woman.

"So that's the case. The Ai family really didn't expect that Princess Zhirui was kind." Although the queen mother was surprised in her heart, she didn't show it on her face.She would not really think that Mu Zhirui is a pure and kind person just because of Shen Wanyu's words.

After all, being raised by her side, a princess without mother's protection can grow up in the harem and be pampered.Judging from these two points, Mu Zhirui is not a simple person.As for kindness, we have to observe more in the future.

"Yes, Empress Dowager. Wanyu likes Princess Zhirui very much. Can I come to the palace to play with her often in the future?"

Shen Wanyu smiled innocently, her dark eyes became clearer and clearer.

"Of course, you can spend more time with Aijia when you go to the palace. Aijia is naturally happy." The queen mother pinched Shen Wanyu's nose with a smile, she did not stop Shen Wanyu and Mu Zhirui from getting close.

Since some things have already been settled, she doesn't want to stop anything from them.The position of the crown princess will definitely fall in the Yun family, but that girl Ruoyan
The queen mother sighed inwardly, looking at Shen Wanyu with regret.In her heart, the most suitable person for the position of princess concubine is Shen Wanyu, maybe it was because of the relationship between the two families in the past.But after getting along with and observing her, she found that she had changed a lot.It seems to be the same as before, but her intelligence and determination are also highlighted.If such a person becomes the crown princess, it will be of great help to the crown prince and Shen Yun's family.

"Queen, you don't seem to like Princess Zhirui very much."

Shen Wanyu looked at the regret in the Empress Dowager's eyes, and she asked cautiously.This problem has always been in her heart, and only when she finds the crux of the problem can she find a solution.

"It's not that I don't like her, it's just because she's that person's granddaughter. I've been fighting with that person since we were young, and she lost to me. Now she has her granddaughter here to be the prince's side Concubine, do you think there will be no lumps in my heart? Although I think Mu Zhirui is not bad, but I still feel a little awkward."

The queen mother did not expect Shen Wanyu to ask this question, and she did not hide it.After all, many people know about this matter, and if the girl Wan Yu wanted to inquire about it, she would definitely know about it, so why not tell her directly.

"It turns out that's the case. No wonder the queen mother has a different attitude towards Princess Zhirui. But there is a saying Wanyu wants to say, Mu Zhirui is Mu Zhirui. That person is that person. I don't want the queen mother to treat Princess Zhirui because of her own psychology. .and mistakenly blamed a very good person.”

The queen mother was stunned for a moment, and then waved her hands: "The Ai family is a little tired, you can go down. I know you want to go to Mu Zhirui, so go if you want."
