Chapter 191: Take the Essence and Discard the Dregs
There is a table full of delicious food, and the only food left on the plate is the best.
And all the dregs were in the bowls of Chu Wanyu and the other person.
"This……"
The old marquis came over at some point and was stunned for a moment when he saw what was happening on the table. "How could you two be so childish?"
He looked at Chu Wanyu lovingly, but it seemed as if he was looking at another person through Chu Wanyu's face.
"Grandfather!" Chu Wanyu stood up and helped the old marquis sit down. "How are you feeling today?"
The old marquis had many hidden injuries from fighting on the battlefield when he was young.
Although he has gotten much better after Chu Wanyu's careful care, he still needs to pay attention to maintenance.
Seeing Chu Wanyu's somewhat worried question, the old marquis smiled kindly and said, "Don't worry, everything is fine now. I came to you recently to tell you..."
But the voice stopped abruptly, and before the two could react, he grabbed Chu Wanyu's hand with one hand, and Xiao Lijing's hand with the other hand, and put the two hands together.
Xiao Lijing looked at the two people's hands folded together, and the corners of his mouth curled up inadvertently, and a hint of affection appeared in his heart.
"I'm old, and now every day I live is earned. I only have one wish now, and that is that you two can be well!" After saying that, the old marquis looked at Xiao Lijing again, "My granddaughter has suffered a lot since she was a child. I hope that Your Highness can take care of her and tolerate her!" The old marquis' words were sincere and there was a glimmer of tears in his turbid eyes.
"Grandfather, don't worry about me. The prince is too busy and has many people to take care of. I can be self-reliant and work hard!"
Chu Wanyu smiled and pulled her hand back, grinning proudly at the old marquis.
"You girl!" The old marquis glanced at Xiao Lijing and saw that he looked unhappy, and his expression became a little deeper.
"Don't worry, old marquis. I will do my best to take good care of the princess." Xiao Lijing said coldly, but his eyes looked at Chu Wanyu gently.
But Chu Wanyu didn't feel anything at all. She just looked at the old marquis intently and took out a bottle of pills from her arms.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your health! Don't worry about other things!" Chu Wanyu stuffed the newly developed health pills into the hands of the Marquis and instructed him on how to use the medicine.
"You, silly girl, I have already made up my mind. I will return to the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow!"
"No!" Chu Wanyu said firmly, "The person who poisoned us hasn't been caught yet..."
"But I am the master of the Marquisate!" The old Marquis narrowed his eyes, his majesty fully revealed. "I am just old, not confused! There are some things that can only be resolved when I return!"
At this moment, the old man, who is in his twilight years, is in good spirits, as if he can mount his horse and rush to the battlefield at any time.
He exuded a murderous aura that terrified his enemies.
This is the aura that only a general who has been on the battlefield for a long time has.
Chu Wanyu smiled slightly and said, "Since you have made the decision, I fully support it!"
The next day, Chu Wanyu and Xiao Lijing personally sent the old marquis back to the marquis's mansion.
To avoid trouble, they did not go in, but sent the person to the door and left.
Battle of Prince's Palace!
As soon as Chu Wanyu got off the carriage, she ran into the old housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Princess. Your birthday is coming soon. Please return to attend the banquet!"
After taking a look at the post, Chu Wanyu rolled her eyes imperceptibly, "This princess knows!"
This kind of banquet not only wastes time, but also requires giving gifts.
Chu Wanyu's eyes flickered as she said, "Hey, Father isn't feeling well. I should send some incense back to help him sleep!"
So the stingy princess came online again.
In the blink of an eye, it was the birthday day.
There were constant disturbances in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but all civil and military officials were present at the banquet.
Looking at the long queue of carriages in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Wanyu's mouth twitched, "Oh my God, how many gifts can I receive!"
"If you are curious, just ask the accountant!" Xiao Lijing said softly from the side.
"That's right!" Chu Wanyu moved quickly, jumped off the carriage and reached out to support Xiao Lijing, "Your Highness, be careful."
Feeling the softness under his hands, Xiao Lijing's mind was distracted. From the corner of his eye, he saw Chu Wanyu's eyes shining, as if they were fixed on those precious gifts...
What a princess who doesn't understand romance.
Then I thought about Chu Wanyu saying divorce, which was impossible.
He applied more force to his hands and whispered, "Princess, let's go in together!"
She has become Princess Zhan, and will be Princess Zhan for the rest of her life.
Chu Wanyu had no idea what he was thinking, and was led into the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Greetings to the Prince and Princess!"
Everyone saluted.
Xiao Lijing said calmly: "No need to be so polite!"
"The arrival of the prince and princess brings glory to our humble home!"
Upon receiving the news, Chu Qinglian hurried over and saluted when he saw Xiao Lijing and the others.
Xiao Lijing's expression remained calm, "Prime Minister, there's no need to be so polite!"
"Thank you, Your Highness. Please follow me!"
Xiao Lijing was of noble status, so he didn't need to pay attention to the crowd. Chu Qinglian directly led him to the banquet hall.
Chu Wanyu followed the maid to the backyard.
Ningshou Hall.
The courtyard of the old lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
The old lady loves to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures. She spends half a year every year living in the Buddhist temple on the mountain.
So much so that when Chu Ruoran and Chu Wanyu got married, the old lady did not return to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
I guess he came back this time to host the banquet at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"The old lady is so lucky. Her son is the Prime Minister and her granddaughter is the Princess. She will have endless wealth and glory in the future!"
"Yes, you are the most blessed person in the whole capital!"
"We came to the banquet this time to share in the good fortune, so that some of our descendants can show up in the future!"
