Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 379
Seeing that Yuliu's dress and conversation are very extraordinary, presumably her master must also be of high status.

These servants didn't dare to offend, so they let Yuliu go back into the carriage.

At this time, inside the carriage.

"Ma'am, the person who bumped into her just now was Miss Zhang Ruxue from the Bachelor's Mansion, and the person following her on the other side seemed to be Li Chenxiu, the Imperial Physician who was expelled from the palace before."

Yuliu lowered her head and reported to Shang Kelan respectfully. Shang Kelan paused, with a flash of nostalgia in his eyes, and then said, "Help me out to see them."

"Yes, ma'am."

Everyone was waiting outside, and after a while, they saw Yuliu walking out with the help of a woman in red. Although she was wearing a woman's hair bun, she looked very young and beautiful.

She was calm and elegant, with a gentle and dignified demeanor, and everyone was stunned for a moment.

Zhang Ruxue and Li Chenxiu were stunned, and then, Li Chenxiu was the first to react, and hurriedly knelt down to salute: "The grass people see the concubine Chen!"

Zhang Ruxue also followed closely behind, hurriedly bowing his knees and saluting: "My servant, please see the concubine Chen!"

Concubine Chen?Isn't that His Majesty's favorite imperial concubine?She is still the daughter of the left prime minister with power over the ruling and opposition parties!
Immediately, these servants were startled, they quickly looked away, and they all bowed to Shang Kelan: "This slave will see the concubine Chen!"

Shang Kelan ignored them, but couldn't help frowning when he saw Li Chenxiu and Zhang Ruxue's appearance.

She took a step forward, helped the two of them up, and asked with concern: "How did you do this? Ms. Zhang, why are you wearing a wedding dress?"

Zhang Ruxue had never been questioned so much by anyone before, she just felt sad for a moment, so she lowered her eyes and replied: "My father and mother listened to the second sister and want me to be betrothed to Zhang Yuanwai in the city as a wife."

Hearing this, Shang Kelan's eyes flickered slightly, seeing Zhang Ruxue's appearance, she definitely didn't want to marry; Li Chenxiu had Zhang Ruxue's help before, so he would definitely not stand idly by, that's why he came to save her.

In just a moment, Shang Kelan made a rough guess about the future, and it seemed that this member was not a good match.

As soon as Zhang Ruxue finished speaking, Shang Kelan held her hand and said helplessly: "Oh, it's my fault that I didn't make it clear to Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang. Because of the big wedding that day, my eldest brother felt sorry for you. Ashamed, I let this palace be the master of your marriage, but I didn't expect such a misunderstanding to arise today!"

As she spoke, she changed her voice and asked with a smile, "Ru Xue, you don't want to marry that Yuanwai?"

"Yes."

Zhang Ruxue nodded without hesitation.

Shang Kelan's eyes flickered slightly, and she said with a smile: "Well, if you don't want to marry, then don't marry."

A leisurely sentence made Zhang Ruxue's heart shine again.

She looked up at Shang Kelan in shock, but she couldn't help showing excitement and joy on her face.

Immediately, the faces of the servants around became ugly, in stark contrast to Zhang Ruxue.

I saw Shang Kelan turn her eyes to look at these servants, and said indifferently: "Your scholar's residence used the second lady to replace the eldest lady to marry my elder brother. I haven't pursued it, but I have found a good relationship with Miss Zhang. Eldest brother temporarily entrusted me, I will definitely not let Ruxue marry someone she doesn't love."

"Go back and bring the original words to Mrs. Zhang and Mr. Zhang. If they want to ask for an explanation, just come to the palace to find me!"

As soon as the words fell, Yuliu stepped forward, looked at these people seriously and said: "If you hear clearly, please go back. Could it be that you can even listen to the words of the concubine Chen?"

Yuliu has been in the palace for a long time, and has brought many servants under her hand, so when she is serious, she naturally carries a sense of oppression, which makes people dare not refute.

"Yes! Yes! The servant resigns!"

These little servants said in a hurry, and left here unwillingly.

After they left, Zhang Ruxue was completely relieved, and her calves felt a little weak.

She supported Li Chenxiu, bowed her knees to Shang Kelan, and said, "Thank you, Madam, for saving me. Ruxue is very grateful, and I will report it someday!"

Shang Kelan shook her head, supported her and said: "There are too many people here, so you can't stay for long, let's get on the car with me first."

Zhang Ruxue nodded.

After the group got into the carriage, the coachman drove slowly again. According to Shang Kelan's order, the carriage came to a secluded house in the east of the city.

"Shang Zhai" is written on the gate of this courtyard.

"Your Majesty, we're here." The coachman held the rein and said back to the inside.

After he stopped the carriage, Yu Liu helped Shang Kelan get off the carriage, followed by Zhang Ruxue and Li Chenxiu.

Shang Kelan stepped forward and knocked on the door of Shang's house. After a while, the door opened, and an old man with white hair stood inside the door. He had a peaceful face and looked about 60 years old.

Shang Kelan saw him, smiled slightly, and said in a friendly tone: "Uncle Xu."

Seeing Shang Kelan, Uncle Xu was also very pleasantly surprised. He hurriedly moved away, nodded and smiled and said, "Miss, you are back? Don't worry, I have taken care of the house very well, there is no dust at all, please come in quickly !"

Shang Kelan nodded and walked in with the people behind.

Zhang Ruxue held Li Chenxiu's hand nervously. Li Chenxiu paused for a moment, pursed his lips, and did not speak.

After entering the lobby, after the group sat down, a nun and a maid came from the room and served them tea.

After taking a sip of tea, Shang Kelan pointed to them and introduced: "This is Uncle Xu. He used to be the housekeeper of my house. I have a close relationship with Uncle Xu. Thanks to him helping to manage this house."

Standing beside her, Uncle Xu said with a modest smile: "Where is it, the little old man should thank Miss for giving me this place to live in."

Shang Kelan nodded and smiled, then pointed to the nanny and maidservants standing in the lobby, and said, "These two are Mrs. Tian and Xiaomei. They take care of everything at home, and they are very familiar with me."

Mrs. Tian speaks with a country accent, dresses plainly, and looks like a loyal and honest person.And Xiaomei is young and beautiful, with bright and clear eyes, and she is a dexterous girl.

As soon as Shang Kelan finished speaking, they nodded to Zhang Ruxue and Li Chenxiu with smiles.

After the introduction, Shang Kelan said to Zhang Ruxue, "Miss Zhang, is there a place to stay temporarily?"

Zhang Ruxue sighed, and said with a disappointed expression: "My daughter escaped from marriage today, even if she has separated from the scholar's house, she has nowhere to go. If I go to my grandfather's house, I'm afraid I will cause trouble to my grandfather's house." .”

Shang Kelan smiled, and said calmly: "In this case, let's make Miss Zhang live here for the time being. I have always admired Miss Zhang's pipa, so if I have time, I can come to learn some piano skills with Miss Zhang. Besides, Uncle Xu, Mrs. Tian, ​​and Xiaomei are all intelligent people, so I can leave it to them to deal with anything."

Uncle Xu, Mrs. Tian and Xiaomei nodded to Zhang Ruxue. Zhang Ruxue was moved and couldn't help but feel a sore nose. Then she stood up and saluted her to thank her: "Concubine Chen's great kindness, little girl can't repay her!"

Shang Kelan smiled, Yuliu stepped forward to help her up, and said: "Miss, you don't need to be too polite, it's rare for your mother to fall in love with you, so you can sit down and rest."

Li Chenxiu didn't dare to look at Shang Kelan from the beginning to the end, but seeing that Zhang Ruxue was settled properly, he also heaved a sigh of relief, stood up and said, "Since the empress has been settled properly, the grass-roots people will leave first."
