Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 204 Gifts
In the early morning of the second day, as soon as the sky became white, Shen Wanyu asked Qiuzhu and Chunlan to wash and dress her.After everything was sorted out, he took the two of them into the palace after a simple breakfast.

She first went to the queen mother to pay her respects, and then went to Mu Zhirui's place after getting the queen mother's consent.The originally somewhat remote and deserted courtyard was now full of red and beaming, and the maids and eunuchs were busy in and out.

Shiqing came out of the room, and happened to see Shen Wanyu walking in with Qiuzhu and Chunlan.She immediately greeted him with a happy smile on her face.

"Miss Shen, you are here. Yesterday, my princess said that she hadn't seen you for a long time. Now that she is married into the Prince's Mansion, I don't know when I will see you again."

Shen Wanyu had a good impression of the more lively poetry, she showed a smile and said: "So I'm here now, how is your princess's preparations?"

"It's almost done, go into the house quickly. The princess must be very happy to see you."

As Shiqing said, she brought Shen Wanyu into the room.

Mu Zhirui was sitting with her back facing Shen Wanyu, she turned her head when she heard the sound of the door opening.When she saw that it was Shen Wanyu, she was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled enchantingly.

"Come here and sit down, why are you here today?"

Huayi quickly poured Shen Wanyu a cup of hot tea, and then glanced at the maids and nuns who were waiting around.With a wink, he led everyone back out.

After everyone retreated, Mu Zhirui turned around and looked at Shen Wanyu who was drinking tea.

"You're getting married today, why would I come to see you. It's just that you are married into the prince's mansion, and it's a bit difficult for me to see you." Shen Wanyu sighed, and gently put the teacup in her hand down. On the table.

"I know you don't like to have anything to do with the prince, and you won't even go to the prince's mansion if you don't have time to hide from him. It's really not easy to see each other in the future."

Mu Zhirui sighed softly, she had already noticed the prince's feelings for Shen Wanyu.She wasn't jealous about this, since she didn't like the prince anyway.Marrying him is just to live a good life in Dakun, not to mention how many small words tell us not to fall in love with an emperor without the life of the heroine, it will only make you die with a sense of rhythm.

"This is for you. Although there are only the Crown Princess and you in the Crown Prince's mansion, as long as the Crown Prince starts to have a Crown Princess, there will definitely be many concubines in the future. These are for emergencies."

Shen Wanyu took out a box from her arms and handed it to Mu Zhirui.These were some pills that she picked out from the pharmacy when she was about to enter the palace in the morning.

Mu Zhirui was taken aback for a moment, and then a warm current flowed through her heart.Since she traveled here, no one has really cared about her except for the concubine who died young.Some are just false concerns and mutual use.

"What are these pills?"

There are countless doctors in the mainland of Kyushu, but there are very few who can refine elixirs.Therefore, most of the pills in the market have a price but no market. If all the bottles in this box are filled with pills, then this gift is really too big.

"The red bottle on the upper layer is for detoxification, and the three blue bottles are for nourishing the body. The bottom one is for poison, so don't touch it unless you have to. You must put away the things in this box, and don't let others know .”

Mu Zhirui bit her lips, and she pushed the box back to Shen Wanyu: "No, I can't take this thing because it's too expensive. You'd better keep it for yourself, your heart is mine."

Shen Wanyu shook her head and stopped her movement: "You just accept it, as long as there are medicinal materials for this thing, I can refine another pile. If you don't believe me, you can ask Qiuzhu, she also has a pile in her hand."

As if afraid that she would not believe it, Qiuzhu nodded hastily.He took out a few porcelain bottles from his bosom, and said with a smile: "Princess, you can take it, our lady doesn't have much else, but there are many pills."

A look of surprise flashed in Mu Zhirui's eyes, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.She glanced at the exquisite box, and to be honest, this thing is very useful to her.Seeing that Shen Wanyu was so determined, she no longer refused.

"Then I will thank you first, and I will return this gift doubled when you get married."

Shen Wanyu rolled her eyes at Mu Zhirui, she picked up the tea and took a sip, showing an expression of enjoyment.

"If you really want to return the gift, you don't have to wait until I get married. Just give me some more of your tea. You don't know that my mouth has been taken away by your tea supply. Drink other tea in your mouth. No matter how you drink it, you don’t like it.”

Mu Zhirui was amused by her cat-like expression, she shook her head and turned around to take out two bags from the cabinet of the dressing table.

"Here, this bag is tea, and this bag is seeds. Dakun's climate is the same as that of Mu Luguo, so I brought some seeds here before I left. There will be fewer opportunities for us to meet in the future, and you are still in the yard by yourself Plant some."

Shen Wanyu looked at the paper bag with seeds in her hand in confusion, and said with a bitter face: "I heard that growing tea is very troublesome, but I don't know how to do it."

Mu Zhirui smiled: "Don't worry, this tea is different from others. She only needs to plant it in the ground and water it every day. When it matures, it can be picked."

When Shen Wanyu heard this, her small face lit up immediately.Very bluntly, he handed the things to Qiuzhu and asked her to put them away properly.

Shen Wanyu was still about to say something, when there was a hasty knock on the door outside.A nun's voice came in from outside.

"His Royal Highness, the wedding party has arrived."

Mu Zhirui frowned slightly, she glanced at Shen Wanyu and then shouted towards the door.

"I see."

Shen Wanyu stretched out her hand to support Mu Zhirui to stand up, and covered her head with the red hijab placed on the dressing table.He whispered in her ear, speaking in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"We all come from the same place, and here we are relatives. And remember that the princess is our ally, you can go to her for anything."

Mu Zhirui's arm stiffened slightly, and she felt that Shen Wanyu was the same person as her at the Hundred Flowers Banquet.But those were all speculations, after all, she knew Miss Shang from Zuiwuxuan.It is not impossible to know those things, and now she has been confirmed from her mouth, which still shocked her quite a bit.

"I see."

Mu Zhirui responded softly, and then the door of the room was pushed open from the outside.The nurse with a happy face came in, took Shen Wanyu's place and helped Mu Zhirui out of the room.

Shen Wanyu looked at the slender figure of her leaving, and sighed slightly.She glanced at the box on the table, and just happened to walk in to pick up something.

"Huayi, put this box away for your princess so that no one else can see it."

Huayi was stunned for a moment, then took the box and nodded: "Miss Shen, don't worry, Huayi will definitely put the box away."

"Well, that's good. Go get busy, I have to go back too."

After Shen Wanyu finished speaking, she took Qiu Zhu out of the house and watched Mu Zhirui being led into the sedan chair by two nuns.This is the difference between the crown princess and the side concubine, and it also shows the difference in the status of the two women.

It was almost noon when I came back from the palace.As soon as she returned to the yard, Ru Huan immediately greeted her.

"Miss, the old lady asked you to go there after you come back."

Shen Wanyu frowned, what would grandma do with her at this time?

"I see, Chunlan, you can stay here. Qiuzhu, follow me to grandma's place."

After she finished speaking, she took Qiuzhu and left the yard, heading towards the old lady's Anlu Courtyard.Passing through the back garden, she suddenly thought of Mr. Wushuang.It seems that he hasn't seen him since the Hundred Flowers Feast?
"Qiuzhu, do you know if Master Wushuang has left the Hou's mansion?"

"Well, Mr. Wushuang seems to have something to leave on the second day after the Hundred Flowers Banquet."

Qiuzhu looked at her young lady in surprise, wondering why she would suddenly ask Mr. Wushuang.If she remembered correctly, she remembered that her young lady didn't seem to like that Mr. Wushuang very much.

Shen Wanyu narrowed her eyes slightly, he really came and went quickly.Either way, I wanted to distance myself from him.Now that he left, it saved her a lot of heart.

While the two were talking, they had already reached the Anlu Courtyard, and stopped the little maid who wanted to go in to report.Shen Wanyu took Qiuzhu and walked directly into the room.

In the warm pavilion, the old lady was resting on the soft pillow, and Nanny Shen stood by and waited on her.The two little servant girls knelt on the ground, looking at her legs with small hammers made of jade.

"You're here, sit down."

The old lady slowly opened her eyes, and pointed to the place beside her.

Shen Wanyu walked to the empty seat beside the old lady and sat down, looked at the tired old lady and said, "Grandmother, are you feeling unwell?"

The old lady stretched out her hand and helped Nanny Shen to help her up, and said without much energy: "This spring is sleepy and autumn is exhausting, and my body starts to get tired just after autumn. I am really old, and I am becoming more and more useless. "

"Grandma isn't getting old, your skin is still as moist as you can see." Shen Wanyu pouted resolutely, and then put her hand on the old lady's wrist to check her pulse.

"You girl always make me happy. Grandma's skin is still moist at such an old age."

The old lady glared at Shen Wanyu coquettishly, but her eyes were full of smiles.She has been using the gadgets that Shen Wanyu gave her, and she also feels that her skin seems to be very watery.

"Grandma, your body is getting stronger. Besides, with your granddaughter here, why are you worried?"

Shen Wanyu withdrew her hand and said with a smile.She just checked Zu's pulse, and there was nothing serious.It is easy to get angry in autumn, and the anger is high.

"Okay, it's just your sweet talk. Grandma came here today to ask you something. What's going on between you and Prince Han?"
