Chapter 158: The Battle at the Gate of the Prince's Mansion
This statement is almost the final word.
Su Jian frowned, "If we bring Jixue back, then my son still needs to be arranged."
King Zhan may not agree to take Su Jixue. Even if he agrees, Su Jixue's current physical condition is still unknown, and whether the Su family can take good care of her health, all these need to be arranged.
"Just let Manager Chen make the arrangements. Sister Xue's yard at home should be ready." Nanny Su said according to Madam Su's instructions.
"That's inevitable." Su Jian nodded quickly. Last time, Su Jixue asked to move to a new courtyard and changed all the decorations. Although Shen didn't take it seriously, Su Jian did. During the days when the city was closed, all of Su Jixue's requests had been met.
Su Jian stopped the carriage and then instructed Chen Fu who was following outside, "Old Chen, quickly go to the mansion to get another carriage, and also arrange for the maid who will serve the young lady to come along."
"Yes!" Chen Fu accepted the order and quickly turned back home to make arrangements.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion. At this moment, Su Mingyue was still kneeling at the gate, and the people around were still watching the excitement.
Old Madam Su had a gloomy face. She saw the scene outside through the car curtain and waved to Madam Su.
Whether it was Su Jian or her, getting off the car would cause a bigger sensation.
Nanny Su got out of the car and saw Su Mingyue kneeling there in a pitiful manner. A flash of disgust flashed across her eyes.
"Second Miss, the old lady asks you to return home." Nanny Su said expressionlessly.
Su Mingyue, who was kneeling at the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion, couldn't help but tremble. She turned her eyes to look at Nanny Su. "The old lady is back?!"
When Su Mingyue returned home for the first time, Old Madam Su was not at home, so she went to the villa to pay a visit to the old lady.
When Su Mingyue saw the old lady for the first time, her heart trembled a little. She still remembered how sharp the old lady Su's eyes were. It was as if she saw through her whole body with just one glance.
Now, the old lady came back for her?!
Su Mingyue felt extremely uneasy.
The nanny from the Princess's residence frowned and couldn't help but step forward to stop her: "Madame Su, even if the old lady comes, she can't just take the Second Young Miss away."
"Since when has the Su family's affairs been decided by the people in the Princess' Mansion?!" Nanny Su couldn't help but sneer, looking at the maids in the Princess' Mansion and said without admitting defeat.
"The Princess's Mansion has no say in the affairs of Prime Minister Su's Mansion, but we can't just sit back and do nothing about Second Miss Su deceiving us!" The Princess's Mansion's nanny was not shy. She glanced at Su Mingyue with disdain, "Besides, it's not the Princess's Mansion that has to do anything now. Madam Su and Young Master Su came here before, but they couldn't get Second Miss back."
"Look, it's the Second Young Lady who wants to hear more about our Princess Mansion!"
Su Mingyue lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look at Madam Su's expression. She knew that Madam Su was different from Mrs. Shen and Su Ce. The Madam's attitude could influence not only Su Jian but also the Princess's residence.
"Madame Su, is Grandmother here too?" Su Mingyue looked up nervously, having made up her mind. If only Madame Su was here, she could still see what was going on.
But if her grandmother came, she would definitely listen to her no matter what.
Although Su Mingyue didn't know that Old Madam Su had entered the palace, but when Old Madam Su came back at this time, she instinctively felt that she could not disobey the old lady.
"What did the Second Young Lady say?" Nanny Su looked down at Su Mingyue and asked instead of answering.
The nanny in the princess's mansion looked at Su Mingyue, then at Nanny Su, and watched the show with a sneer.
The onlookers who had begun to disperse gathered again. It seemed that someone from the Su family had come again, and the drama was about to begin anew.
"Since it is grandma's order, Mingyue must obey." Su Mingyue knew from Nanny Su's attitude that the old lady should be in the carriage, so she immediately changed her tone.
Su Mingyue was about to stand up as she spoke, but it seemed like she had been kneeling for too long, so she was unable to stand up and sat down on the ground again.
But the moment she expressed her opinion, the maid from the Princess's Mansion couldn't help but say, "Second Miss, you haven't apologized to Miss Su yet!"
"Since when has the Princess Mansion become involved in matters between the Su sisters?" Nanny Su sneered and went forward to help Su Mingyue up. "Second Miss, let's go back to the mansion."
Su Mingyue stood up with the help of Nanny Su, and glanced weakly at the nanny from the princess's mansion, meaning that she had no other choice.
"Madame Su!" Seeing Madame Su taking action, the maid from the Princess's Residence couldn't help but want to give instructions to the maid behind her. At this moment, someone stepped forward and said a few words to the maid. The maid glanced at Madame Su and said, "Our eldest princess has ordered that since the old lady has returned, everything will be handled by her."
After saying that, the maid of the princess's mansion waved to the servants and said, "Let's go!"
The people from the princess's mansion withdrew.
Su Mingyue was helped directly onto the carriage behind the old lady. She was the only one in the carriage. When the curtain was lowered, the smile on Su Mingyue's lips suddenly disappeared, and the dim interior of the carriage cast a layer of gloom over her face.
Especially when she heard Nanny Su outside go up to the gatekeeper of the Prince's Mansion to report.
Old Madam Su not only wanted to take her home, but also wanted to take Su Jixue home.
Su Mingyue gritted her teeth when she thought about the situation she would face after returning home. She heard that Su Jixue was seriously injured. If she returned to the Su family...
The hostility in Su Mingyue's eyes gradually grew stronger.
After having the doorman at Prince Zhan's mansion inform them, Nanny Su returned to Old Madam Su's carriage and said, "Old Madam, shall we wait here?"
Nanny Su glanced at the onlookers who were still watching, and she was afraid that soon every family in the capital would hear the news from here.
Old Madam Su lifted the car curtain and nodded to Nanny Su.
"Mother, King Zhan may not give you face." Su Jian felt a little uneasy in the carriage. After all, what King Zhan said to him was still fresh in his mind. Now his mother insisted on taking Su Jixue back. Who knew how King Zhan would react.
Old Madam Su retracted her gaze and turned to look at Su Jian, with doubt in her eyes: Is there something going on between you and King Zhan?
No matter how powerful the King of War is, he can't actually control the Su family.
Judging from Su Jian's expression, something is going on.
"Mother, in fact, it is better for the Su family that Jixue is in Prince Zhan's Mansion." Su Jian glanced at the car window a little awkwardly, but he couldn't help it in the end, and whispered in Madam Su's ear about Sanrixue.
Old Madam Su's eyes turned cold, and she looked at Su Jian coldly, with a questioning look in her eyes: Is the Su Mansion related to the battle of Gu'an?
Su Jian shook his head. He truly hadn't interfered in military affairs. He whispered, "I've followed my mother's instructions and have absolutely never taken sides in the capital, especially when it comes to matters concerning the nation's capital."
"But I dare not say anything about Shen's situation."
Su Jian hesitated for a moment and then said, "Besides, in this difficult situation for the Zhuang family, I'm afraid I still need my mother to show me what I should do."
