I just want to live a good life

Chapter 147: His Royal Highness's Methods

"You let me go. I warn you, don't think you can tell me what to do just because you are the Crown Prince's concubine. The Crown Prince loves me very much. If I go to him and complain about you, I will make sure you will suffer the consequences."

"Okay, then you can go and complain to him tomorrow."

"I want to get off." Seeing that Su Nuan refused to speak, Mu Yunxi pulled Falcon's sleeve, trying to force him to stop the carriage.

But the carriage remained stable, and the Falcon was not affected by Mu Yunxi at all.

Mu Yunxi became anxious. She sat on the other side of the shaft, waiting for an opportunity to jump off the carriage.

"Falcon, don't let her get away."

Su Nuan's lazy voice came from the car.

Falcon drove the carriage with one hand and grabbed Mu Yunxi's sleeve with the other hand, preventing her from jumping out of the carriage.

The carriage arrived all the way to Prince Yongping's Palace. The guards at the door saw from afar that one of the princess's drivers was tied to the shaft of the carriage. Someone quickly ran back to the palace to inform the master, and the rest surrounded Su Nuan's carriage.

The leader among them yelled at Falcon: "Let my princess go."

Falcon ignored him completely until Su Nuan told him to let go of Mu Yunxi. Only then did he let go and let Mu Yunxi leave on her own.

As soon as Mu Yunxi was free, she jumped off the carriage and ran into the palace.

In order to travel safely and avoid trouble, there was no sign of the Prince's Mansion on the carriage that Su Nuan was riding in. The guards of Prince Yongping's Mansion did not recognize whose carriage it belonged to, and when they saw that their princess had escaped from the control of the falcon, they still stayed in the carriage and refused to move away.

"Go back."

Falcon shouted, his aura was completely different from when he was driving the carriage. Su Nuan couldn't help but give him a thumbs up in the carriage.

The palace guards looked at each other, unable to figure out the falcon's movements.

Just when everyone was hesitating whether to retreat, Mu Yunshu strode towards Su Nuan's carriage, followed by Mu Yunxi who was jogging behind him.

“Xia Qingyan, what do you mean, why did you let your driver be rude to my sister?”

Mu Yunshu said angrily.

Su Nuan sighed. She thought Mu Yunxi would go to her father to complain first, but she didn't expect that she would come to Mu Yunshu first.

"I think the prince has misunderstood. My driver has been protecting the princess all the way and doing his duty. How could he be considered rude to her?

Besides, it's so late now. I was kind enough to send the princess back, so it's fine if you didn't say thank you, but why are you so rude? "

"Yun Xi has the palace guards following her, why would she need the protection of the Crown Prince's concubine's driver?"

"Then you can send someone to Tianxiang Tower to inquire about the situation at that time. Anyway, when I saw it, the princess was running, and several strong men were chasing her. Anyone who saw this scene would think that the princess was in danger!"

Hearing this, Mu Yunshu turned his head and asked Mu Yunxi: "Are you going to shake off the guards and run away again?"

Mu Yunxi avoided the gaze and didn't dare to look at Mu Yunshu.

There is no need to answer such a performance.

Mu Yunshu glared at her fiercely, then turned to Su Nuan and said, "I misunderstood. Please don't blame me, Concubine Xia."

"Brother, I want to shake off the guards, but she can't let her servant be rude to me. Look, my sleeves are all stained by that servant."

As she spoke, Mu Yunxi stretched out the arm that had been grabbed by the falcon, and an oily handprint on her sleeve appeared in front of everyone.

Su Nuan remembered that when he was running out of Tianxiang Tower with Falcon, this guy had a handful of chicken nuggets in his hand.

So the oil from that hand was all wiped onto Mu Yunxi's sleeves?

Ugh!

"The county lord thought it was my driver who was rude, so I apologize to you on his behalf."

After saying that, Su Nuan looked at Mu Yunshu and continued, "Excuse me, my lord, can we leave now?"

Mu Yunshu waved to the guards, and they stepped back to make way for the carriage.

Su Nuanlai wanted to try her luck in meeting Prince Yongping. This prince was not only low-key, but also reclusive and never received guests.

Since it was Mu Yunshu who came out to stand up for her sister today, she probably wouldn't be able to see Prince Yongping. There was no point in staying any longer, so when she saw the guards letting her go, she prepared to leave.

When lowering the curtain, Mu Yunshu called her: "Concubine Xia, it was just a misunderstanding, don't take it to heart. Yao'er just married into the palace and is not used to it yet. I hope you can come and sit with her more often."

Because of the private conversation at the flower-viewing banquet, Su Nuan had a feeling of disconnection every time she saw Mu Yunshu, which made her have a bad impression of Mu Yunshu. She didn't want to talk to him much, so she just waved her hand and urged Falcon to drive away.

When we returned to the Prince's Mansion, it was already dark.

Su Nuan got off the carriage and said to Falcon, "After you send the carriage off, go find Chunliu and get a handkerchief."

"..."

Falcon looked at Su Nuan with a puzzled expression, not understanding what the handkerchief was for.

Su Nuan pointed at her sleeves, then at Falcon's hand, and said with a smile: "This handkerchief is for you to wipe your hands. Try to wash your hands after eating in the future. Even if you don't wash your hands, you should wipe them clean with the handkerchief."

For a moment, Falcon felt as if his face was burning.

Su Nuan hummed a little tune and returned to Duiyueju, and unexpectedly found Mu Yunting sitting behind the desk looking through her design drawings.

"How long have you been here, Your Highness?"

"It's been a while."

"What do you want to see me about, Your Highness?"

"I heard that your shop had some problems, so I came to see if you need my help."

Su Nuan felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? The second prince can easily solve this small problem."

"In fact, given your and Yun Yi's status, you don't have to show up in person. Just let Ding Fu go to find Jingzhao Yin."

Just as the saying goes "the prime minister's servants are seventh-rank officials", the steward of the Prince's Mansion can communicate directly with the Jingzhao Yin.

Su Nuan just said "Oh" to indicate that she understood.

After a while, Mu Yunting asked, "Don't you want to ask how Dong Youning is doing?"

"What can I do? The brother of the future Crown Prince's concubine, with the Queen Mother as his strong backer, should be enjoying a life of luxury in the Marquis Zhongyuan's mansion now."

"I gave Bi Tao to him as his concubine, and then had someone spread a piece of news in the imperial city that the son of the Marquis Zhongyuan was deeply in love with a maid in the prince's mansion, and his deep affection moved the prince, and the lovers finally got married."

Hearing this, Su Nuan's eyes widened. If she were to talk about evil intentions, this man would definitely make her admit defeat.

Dong Youning is the eldest son of the Marquis Zhongyuan's Mansion. His wife must be the legitimate daughter of a powerful family. Even if he wants to have a concubine, he must find a illegitimate daughter of a powerful family. Now that Mu Yunting gave Bitao to him as a concubine, it would lower the value of the women in his harem.

Just imagine, which powerful family would be willing to marry their concubine's daughter to him and make her equal to a maid?

The legitimate daughter was even more unwilling to marry him. He was deeply in love with a maid and even brought her home as a concubine. The wife had to compete for favor with a maid before she even married into the mansion. Just thinking about it made people feel anxious.

Mu Yunting's move is so disgusting!

But the Marquis Zhongyuan's Mansion and the Queen Mother could not say anything. After all, Dong Youning had used force on the prince's concubine first. Even if it was to appease the prince's anger, Dong Youning had to carry Bitao into the house.
