Chapter 14: The Pavilion Visiting
Shen Wen didn't hear the wall foot, naturally he didn't know that the Grand Prince was in a slight intoxication, and after listening to his staff report the day's affairs, he suddenly said without a brain, "How can we make the Marquis of Zhenbei's house greatly disgraced for once only, preferably in front of a large audience ......"
It sounded like drunken words, and the crowd paused for a moment before they realised that the Grand Prince was using his drunkenness to spit out what was in his heart. He was still holding a grudge against what had happened at the Marquis of Changle's residence, and the rumours he had spread were not enough, so he wanted to do something more.
The words of the Grand Prince could not be ignored, and a person said, "Then we must find a time when that House ...... people are out of the House." There would be no need to point out that it was only a child, would there?
The Grand Prince nodded and said, "Think of a good plan, you guys."
Everyone was busy responding, and only then did the Grand Prince rise with a smile and go off to enjoy his wedding night.
Unaware that she was being watched, Shen Wen ran back to her compound and gently touched the door to her room, which immediately opened silently. Shen Wen dodged inside and blinked half-heartedly as she entered the even darker room from outside.
Su Wanniang whispered, "Thank God, Amitabha Buddha! My hair is turning white in a panic!" As she did so, her hands and feet helped Shen Wen undress.
Shen Wen listened to the courtyard and found no movement before she whispered, "I found that there were others visiting the Grand Prince's residence at night."
Su Wanniang also replied softly, "Really? You didn't let anyone see that you were a child, did you? Now everyone knows that the little child that the Grand Prince doesn't like is you."
Shen Wen laughed in a low voice: "Even if someone found out it was a child, they wouldn't think it was me, and that person is not very tall."
Su Wanniang pulled Shen Wen towards the bed and said in a quiet voice, "Carefulness makes all boats go round, you can't be careless."
The two went to bed together and Shen Wen said, "You sound like an old Mother-in-law."
Su Wanniang sighed, "I feel like I've grown ten years in an hour!"
Shen Wen laughed and nudged Su Wanniang, "That's not an old Mother-in-law, it's a young daughter-in-law."
Su Wanniang pinched Shen Wen's fleshy arm, "How old are you and you're joking about this? You can't say that in usually!"
Shen Wen sighed: I'm a thousand years old, okay?
Su Wanniang asked again in a low voice: "Are you sure we can leave the House on April 4? It's already the middle of March, and I haven't heard of any arrangements to leave the Mansion."
Shen Wen smiled: "You can't wait again. Every year at that time of year, big brother and the others would take Shen Xiang out for a walk and stay at the Xiangye Temple for two or three days. I was too young in previous years, so they didn't take me with them. This year I will definitely beg them to take me, and if they don't, I will ......"
Su Wanniang interjected, "You will just cry!"
Shen Wen hemmed and hawed as Su Wanniang asked again, "If you go out with them, how will you go to see Ji Wenzhao? "
Shen Wen said in a low voice, "I'm not going, you go!"
Su Wanniang sighed, "I won't be able to sleep well tonight!"
The next day, Shen Wen did go and ask Shen Xiang when she was going to go trekking. Shen Xiang didn't even wait for Shen Wen to ask this time, she took the initiative and said she would take her with her, making Shen Wen so happy at the time that she clapped her hands and jumped around clumsily hugging Shen Xiang.
Shen Xiang gently pushed Shen Wen away, straightened her clothes, put on a grown-up look and said, "You can't run around when you go out, you have to follow me all the time!"
Shen Wen immediately said okay, looking like a good boy. Feeling good about being an elder sister, Shen Xiang continued: "Oh, and don't tell anyone your own name, don't eat anything someone gives you, don't just believe what people say, and if a stranger comes to you and says your mother is looking for you ......"
Shen Wen said dully, "But mother isn't going with me."
Shen Xiang waved her hand and said, "That's not what I'm saying, what I'm saying is that you have to be careful and careful again, it's the first time you've been out this far in your life ......"
Shen Wen was looking at the heavens in her heart, what do you mean by going far from the house? I have been far more than you? But on the surface, he was honest enough to hold back his yawn and nod solemnly.
Shen Xiang told Shen Wen that she was scheduled to leave the house on April 2 and return on April 6, so she should prepare a change of clothes and bring only one or two servants with her. Shen Wen said that she should ask Su Wanniang and her nanny He Shi to follow her.
After setting her schedule, Su Wanniang began to lose sleep. Every night when she was going to sleep, she would repeatedly recite with Shen Wen what she was going to say and which chess moves she had to recite. Ji Wenzhao is a national expert, a genius, a capable person who is already known all over the world. She is afraid that she will not be able to convince Ji Wenzhao to help her find out the truth about her father's case, and she is so nervous that she cannot sleep.
Shen Wen could not tell her about Ji Wenzhao's past life, so she could only try to comfort her, but Su Wanniang could not listen to her. Shen Wen could only teach her yoga, hoping she would relax.
In the darkness of the night, the bedroom is unlit, with only the pale moonlight coming through the window panes. On the fleece carpet on the floor, two girls were talking quietly. "Here, relax, inhale, one, two, three ...... six, hold your breath, then exhale ...... change to this position ...... don't move, just stretch ......"
For several nights in a row, Su Wanniang had to practise until she was exhausted before she could get some sleep, but in the morning she still insisted on going to practise martial arts for an hour, by the day they travelled, there were black shadows under her eyes.
On the day of the trip, Shen Wen got up when it was still dark, but when she arrived at the main hall, she was still the last one. There was already a line of people standing in front of Yang Shi and the old Furen. Shen Wen quickly said her morning greetings and stood on the side of Shen Xiang. Shen Xiang frowned at Shen Wen and whispered, "Why are you so late? Didn't I tell you that we should leave early? There are fewer people on the road, so it can be faster."
Shen Wen immediately looked like a little girl, yawned and said, "I can't get up."
The old Furen was busy smiling and said, "It's not late, Wen Er should get more sleep."
Shen Wen immediately smiled and nodded to the old Furen, while Shen Xiang skipped a beat.
Yang Shi looked at her five sons and daughters standing in front of her to say goodbye, proud and worried.
