Chapter 281 Luoying Pavilion
Chapter 281 Luoying Pavilion
If the mother and daughter in the carriage could take the time to pay attention to the speed of the carriage, they would find that today's speed is much slower than usual.
It was almost 3 p.m. when we arrived at the entrance of the Ministry of Justice.
Su Nuan helped Madam Xia get off the carriage. Chun Liu came forward with a food box containing some of Chunxianglou's chef's specialties. However, the dishes were already cold and no one knew whether they tasted good or not.
The guard at the door was the same one who stopped Madam Xia that day. When he saw that the prince's concubine had really brought someone, his bitter mood was written all over his face.
Whether to stop it or not is one question, and whether it can be stopped is another question.
Su Nuan led her men inside, and the guard hesitantly stretched out a hand to block her.
"Concubine Xia, please don't embarrass me."
"I won't embarrass you. I have the token of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
After saying that, Su Nuan took out the golden token and showed it to the guard.
The guard took one look and immediately knelt down.
Su Nuan was a little confused. Is this token so powerful?
Just at this moment Lord Shen came out. When he saw Su Nuan, he wanted to nod and say hello, but then he could see the token in her hand and she quickly knelt down.
"Master Shen, why are you kneeling too?"
Su Nuan was puzzled.
"Concubine Xia, don't you know what you are holding in your hand?"
Lord Shen asked.
"This is the token that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave me, saying that I can bring my mother to the Ministry of Justice to visit her."
Lord Shen kindly explained, "This is a gold medal bestowed by the emperor. Seeing this gold medal is like seeing the emperor."
Su Nuan suddenly felt her hands become heavier.
No wonder Mu Yunting was so sure that he could bring his mother into the Ministry of Justice. With this imperial gold medal, it would be equivalent to the emperor personally taking them in.
This thing was very precious. Su Nuan carefully put it away and took Madam Xia into the Ministry of Justice.
Xia Changze was already recovering, and Lord Shen moved him to the prison. The cell was clean and tidy, with a bed in it. The bedding on the bed looked fluffy and soft.
Such conditions are quite explosive throughout the prison world.
Although Lord Shen put Xia Changze back into jail, he treated him like this, which could be considered thoughtful.
Mrs. Xia was stunned when she saw her son lying in a clean quilt. This was a little different from what she had expected.
I heard that my son was beaten by King Ankang and was carried into the Ministry of Justice. I imagined that my son must be covered in wounds, lying miserably on the ground.
But now he is dressed cleanly, sleeps comfortably, and has servants serving him. This scene is incompatible with the words "Ministry of Justice Prison".
"Mom, why are you here!"
Xia Changze's call of "Mom" drew Mrs. Xia's attention back.
The jailer opened the cell door and Mrs. Xia walked up to Xia Changze.
There was no scene of the mother and son hugging each other and crying, but people did see Mrs. Xia hitting Xia Changze hard on the head.
"How could you cause such a disaster? You are such a worrying person! Do you know how worried your family is about you?"
Xia Changze grimaced in pain and dared not make a sound.
"Mom, why did you take action?"
Su Nuan hurriedly pulled Madam Xia back and used her body to separate the mother and son.
Third brother is so badly injured that he is holding on now. We can’t let Madam Xia beat him again. If she does, we’ll have to call Imperial Doctor Yao again.
"The whole family has been worried about him these past few days. Your father angered the emperor by pleading for him, and was punished by the emperor to go to the military camp and not be allowed to come back for half a month. Mother is so worried at home alone. If you hadn't come back, mother wouldn't know what to do!"
As she spoke, Mrs. Xia began to cry out of grievance.
"Mom, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I made everyone worry about me."
Xia Changze said guiltily.
Su Nuan couldn't stand this kind of scene, and secretly thought that the exciting scene just now was also pretty good.
"Alright, alright, mother, Third Brother was framed by someone, and he didn't mean to make us worry. And Third Brother, you don't have to blame yourself. It's not easy for mother to come to see you once, so tell me if there's anything you want to eat or use."
Su Nuan winked at Xia Changze while speaking.
Find something for mother to do so she won't have any wild thoughts.
Xia Changze received his sister's signal and quickly said, "I want to eat the glutinous rice dumplings made by mother."
"I'll make it for you when I get home."
When Su Nuan heard that there was something delicious, she quickly interrupted, "Mom, I want to eat too."
"Okay, Mom will make some more and have someone send it to you tomorrow."
"Mom, don't forget to send some to my sister as well. Otherwise, if my third brother and I both get some, she will accuse you of being partial."
"They are all there, they are all there."
Mrs. Xia sighed softly without leaving a trace.
This is the trouble with having many children, you have to make multiple copies of everything.
The mother and son chatted for a while, and Mrs. Xia promised to make glutinous rice balls for them as soon as she returned. Only then was Su Nuan coaxed her to leave.
Su Nuan asked Falcon to send her mother back to the general's mansion, and she stayed to ask about her third brother's health.
Doctor Yao's medicine boy had been taken away, so she had no choice but to ask Cai Ya.
"Imperial Doctor Yao came to see Master Xia this morning. He said that Master Xia has recovered very well and that he just needs to take good care of himself. Imperial Doctor Yao also wrote two prescriptions for him."
Cai Ya took out two prescriptions and handed them to Su Nuan.
Su Nuan didn't know how to read prescriptions, so she just glanced at it and returned it to Cai Ya, then took out a banknote and gave it to Cai Ya, "You stay here to take care of Third Brother for the time being. You should buy medicine and boil the medicine yourself, don't let anyone else do it for you."
"Don't worry, Concubine. I promise to take good care of Master Xia."
"If you need anything, come back to me. If you need anything, just ask Ding, the chief steward."
Su Nuan is very confident in saying this now. She has a gold medal bestowed by the emperor on her and is in charge of the Prince's Mansion. Many things are not difficult for her.
After running outside for an afternoon, the sun was about to set when I returned to the Prince's Mansion.
As soon as Su Nuan stepped into the gate of the Prince's Mansion, she was stopped by Butler Ding.
"Concubine Xia, a girl named Leng Yue came to visit today and said she was Concubine Xia's friend."
As soon as Su Nuan came back, she ran around everywhere and almost forgot about Leng Yue.
Leng Yue’s arrival at the Prince’s Mansion means that Prince Guang’an has also entered the imperial city. Su Nuan gets a headache when she thinks of the peacock.
"I remember there is a small courtyard next to Concubine Dong's Hibiscus Garden. Let Leng Yue live there first."
Steward Ding showed a hint of shock in his eyes, "Is Concubine Xia talking about Luoyingxuan?"
"It seems to be called this name."
"That yard..."
Manager Ding was about to say something but stopped himself. That courtyard was not a small courtyard, it was the main courtyard of the mansion. It was much larger than Duiyue Ju and Furong Garden, and had a good location as it was closer to the Crown Prince's Lanyue Pavilion.
Everyone in the palace recognized that the courtyard was the residence of the future Crown Princess.
Now Concubine Xia actually wanted to give that yard to an unnamed girl to live in. This couldn't but shock him.
Su Nuan didn't think so much. She had no other intention in letting Leng Yue live there, she just wanted to disgust Dong Jingshu.
