Chapter 147 The Domineering Princess Jing'an
Su Yuan on the side did not pay attention to their conversation. She occasionally ate some snacks, drank some tea, and then watched the guests coming in one after another.
It was not until Princess Jing'an called her that she looked at her and asked, "What do you want, Your Highness?"
"Madam Gu, I heard that Duke Li is an old acquaintance of yours?" Princess Jing'an asked.
Su Yuan was slightly startled, then nodded in agreement, "Duke Li and I are indeed old acquaintances! It's just... we're not particularly close."
It is easy to investigate her relationship with Cheng Lang.
But what they found out during their investigation was definitely the news of their discord.
After all, when they were in the Li family, they were like water and fire.
Of course, the original body could not accommodate Cheng Lang.
"How could they not be familiar with each other? The son of Marquis Zhennan is the adopted son of Duke Li." Princess Jing'an didn't believe that they were not familiar with each other.
Su Yuan explained, "I was able to find Yu'er thanks to Duke Li. Duke Li put aside past grudges and found Yu'er for me. I am grateful to Duke Li."
Princess Jing'an was silent for a moment, not knowing what she was thinking.
She originally thought she could ask Su Yuan to be the matchmaker and help her find out Cheng Lang's feelings.
I didn’t expect that Su Yuan and Cheng Lang were not familiar with each other!
But I heard that Cheng Lang was raised by Li Yanhua, and Li Yanhua was Su Yuan's grandfather. Su Yuan spent some time in the Li family.
Is there any grudge between them?
Cheng Lang is still unmarried at his age. Is there any hidden secret?
"So that's how it is! Madam Gu, do you know why Duke Li has always been unwilling to get married?" Princess Jing'an continued to ask.
Cheng Lang told others that he had no intention of getting married and only wanted to achieve success, but... what man doesn't want to get married?
Cheng Lang has no parents or brothers. If he doesn't get married, won't his family line be cut off?
She didn't believe Cheng Lang's reason that he didn't want to get married.
There must be other reasons.
It would be just right to ask Su Yuan, my childhood sweetheart.
Su Yuan: ...
Why is Cheng Lang unwilling to get married?
I guess I didn't think about it at first, but later...
When he met her, he just wanted to marry her.
Su Yuan shook her head gently, "Your Highness, I don't know the reason either."
Princess Jing'an's expression changed, and she looked displeased.
Does Su Yuan not know, or doesn’t want to say?
Seeing this, Chen, who was standing by, immediately spoke up to help, "Your Highness! I'm afraid you haven't heard about the feud between Sister Su and Duke Li?
When they were in the Li family, they had a bad relationship. Although they were in Kyoto, they hardly interacted with each other.
If the Crown Prince had not acknowledged Duke Li as his adoptive father, there would have been no relationship between them."
They are very clear about this.
However, they were not specifically investigating Su Yuan. They were targeting the Zhennan Marquis Mansion, the former Zhennan Marquis Mansion.
Today, Su Yuan is in charge of the Marquis of Zhennan's Mansion, and the previous grudge between Duke Yuguo and the Marquis of Zhennan's Mansion has been completely wiped out.
Su Yuan echoed, "Sister Chen is absolutely right, Your Highness, I am not familiar with Duke Li."
Hearing this, Princess Jing'an's expression eased a little.
Cheng Lang is not in Kyoto now. I heard that he went to Dongcheng.
She didn't know when Cheng Lang would come back. When he came back, she wanted to go to Duke Li's mansion.
But she couldn't take Li Yueyao with her, it was too obvious!
It would be a good idea to take Su Yuan with him, after all, he has a legitimate reason.
"What's the grudge between you two?" Princess Jing'an asked.
What grudges have caused childhood sweethearts who grew up together to stop communicating with each other until they die?
Su Yuan: ...
"These are all old things. I didn't know much when I was young, and they were all trivial matters. I can't remember what they were specifically about." Su Yuan explained.
Since it's a small matter, it's easy to deal with.
"Since it is just an insignificant matter, why do you have to make a fuss about it and never have anything to do with each other again? How about I act as a middleman and help you put aside your past grudges?" Princess Jing'an looked at Su Yuan.
Su Yuan pursed her lips. Princess Jing'an came prepared. How could she say no?
Su Yuan smiled and said, "How dare I trouble Your Highness? I am so frightened..."
"It's settled! When Duke Li comes back, I'll go with you to Duke Li's mansion to clear up the misunderstanding and resolve the past grudges." Princess Jing'an made the arrangements directly.
What else could Su Yuan say?
She could only nod slightly, "Thank you, Your Highness the Princess."
Princess Jing'an then revealed a satisfied smile, "You're welcome."
In this way, she could go to Duke Li's mansion with a legitimate reason.
There was no hostess in Duke Li's mansion, so she didn't know what excuse she could come up with to invite Cheng Lang to visit the Princess's mansion.
Moreover, Cheng Liang rarely attends banquets and will not show up even if he is invited.
She had no choice but to go to the Duke's Mansion to meet Cheng Lang in person.
Su Yuan sighed lightly, Cheng Lang's romantic luck came again.
She looked up at Li Yueyao. Li Yueyao didn't say a word the whole time, but just listened to their conversation shyly.
After hearing that Princess Jing'an had a reason to go to Duke Li's mansion, her face turned slightly red.
Su Yuan felt as if something was grabbing her heart, and she didn't feel very well.
Fortunately, Princess Jing'an no longer bothered her.
Before the wedding banquet was over, Princess Jing'an took Li Yueyao away first.
After they left, Chen asked with concern, "Sister Su! Don't blame me. I can't get a word in. Her Royal Highness the Princess...she is just so arbitrary.
But she has no ill intentions. If you can resolve your differences with Duke Li, it would be a good thing."
Now that Duke Li is a favorite of His Majesty, it is not a bad thing for Su Yuan to be able to reconcile with Cheng Lang.
After all, they are childhood sweethearts, so why should they continue to be at loggerheads with each other and be so incompatible?
Su Yuan bit her lip lightly. Why did they need to put aside their past grudges?
Cheng Lang never blamed Su Yuan at all!
I will never bring any grudges onto her.
"I know, it's just a trip to Duke Li's mansion, it's okay." Su Yuan said with a smile.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess wants Duke Li to be her son-in-law! Do you think Duke Li will agree? Although the little princess has been married, she is still a beauty, and it is not an injustice to Duke Li." Chen analyzed.
If he were an ordinary man, he would definitely be trying to marry above his station.
But the eldest princess has her eyes on Duke Li, an important official close to His Majesty.
She couldn't tell who was trying to get ahead of whom.
Su Yuan didn't want to guess, if Cheng Lang wanted to marry her, then just marry her!
If he dares to marry Li Yueyao, everything will be over between them.
The child in her belly completely became hers and Gu Zhiquan's.
"I don't know either. I don't know what Duke Li is thinking." Su Yuan refused to speculate.
"The eldest princess is His Majesty's most beloved sister, and Duke Li is a military commander trusted by His Majesty. If they quarrel, who will win?" Chen smiled as if she was watching a show.
The city of Kyoto has been peaceful for a long time, and it's time for some fun to give everyone something to talk about after dinner.
