Chapter 136 The Duke's House's Eldest Daughter 6

A sleepless night did not affect Shen Yuan's spirits. He washed and dressed as usual. Since it was not the first or fifteenth day of the month, he skipped the visit to the old lady and went directly to his mother's courtyard to pay his respects.

Li pulled her aside and warned her for a long time not to reveal the fact that she was practicing with the immortal to anyone except her and her husband.

She nodded obediently, and after repeated assurances, she mentioned that she wanted to go out to "see all kinds of life."

Knowing that she was going for spiritual practice, Li did not stop her and agreed immediately. However, she was worried about her daughter's safety. In addition to asking her to bring enough people with her, she also sent an old maid to accompany her before sending her out with some concern.

When the old nanny heard that the third young lady wanted to go for a walk in the south of the city, she subconsciously wanted to stop her. She said, "The east of the capital is rich, the west is noble, the south is poor, and the north is lowly. The south of the city is a mess. How can it be a good place for a girl from a wealthy family to go?"

But in an instant, she thought of the lady's instructions before she left, asking her to listen to the girl's instructions no matter what and just ensure her safety. She couldn't help but wonder if the lady knew about this?

Thinking of this, the foot that was about to move stopped suddenly. Others were also suspicious, but when they saw that the most senior nanny did not stop it, they did not dare to step out.

So the itinerary was set, and the group got on the carriage and traveled slowly.

The scene outside the car curtain changed from quiet to noisy, and then to the sounds of the market. As we walked along, the surrounding buildings also changed from carved buildings and painted buildings to crowded and narrow ones, and then became more and more dilapidated in the back. We could even see half-naked people on the streets.

The maids and servants followed carefully, and from time to time they would glance at their master who was looking out through the curtain, just waiting to see if she looked uncomfortable so that they could step forward and persuade her to go home.

However, to their disappointment, Shen Yuan's expression did not change from beginning to end. His palm-sized face did not show any emotion, as if he did not notice the huge gap between the rich and the poor.

He lowered his head and felt quite unhappy for a moment. Yes, these young ladies who grew up in a honeypot, how could they care about the lives of the lower class like them?

Chen Yuan didn't know that he had inadvertently touched the sensitive hearts of his followers. He walked around the city without saying a word, and only told them to go home in the evening.

She got up early again the next day and took her people out of the city to the surrounding towns. However, she did nothing. She was just wandering around aimlessly as if she was just out for a walk.

This went on for several days, and the servants were almost annoyed. They had never seen a girl from a wealthy family like this, running around outside all day and not coming home.

Moreover, she didn't go to any beautiful or famous places, but always went to some remote and poor villages. The old nanny had mentioned this to the lady in a subtle way several times, but the lady didn't stop her at all.

Is it the third girl who has a problem, or is the lady also bewitched by something?

The old nanny kept muttering in her heart but dared not show it on her face. She had to use all means to suppress the people under her and not let them leak any news.

But this method can only control for a while, not for a lifetime!

I'm afraid that someday someone below me will disobey me and spread some unfavorable rumors, which will ruin the reputation of the girls in the mansion and I'll be killed by the lady~

The old nanny felt bitter, and her resentful eyes drifted towards Chen Yuan again and again. Just when she was about to lose her patience, she rushed up to shake her shoulders and shouted: Third Miss, please, even if it is not for yourself, but for the sisters below, please restrain yourself——

When the train arrived at the airport, this strange journey was stopped without any warning.

Old Mammy: ...

(⊙o⊙)…looked confused.

He had no idea that he almost caused an old nanny who had been in the backyard for many years and had extraordinary means to collapse. After Shen Yuan learned the information he wanted, he returned to the backyard.

Because she had such a good excuse of "cultivation", she successfully got her parents' help to cover up, pretended to be unwell, locked herself in the yard, and began to stay at home.

Of course, these were all done for outsiders to see. In fact, the people serving in her yard were replaced by Li's confidants, who guarded the entire yard tightly and did not give outsiders any chance to peek.

As for whether Chen Yuan himself was in the room or what he was doing, they did not dare to inquire. They would only go to serve after receiving orders.

Because she showed her magical powers in front of Xu's father and Li's mother from time to time, and seeing that her "magic power" was getting stronger and stronger, the two of them had no doubts at all, and supported her with all their might, and took care of everything perfectly.

In the blink of an eye, more than a year passed, and the emperor fainted in the court, just as the original owner remembered in his previous three lives.

Before, Chen Yuan had "read the fortune" for Xu's father and warned him not to get involved in the fight for the throne among the princes, otherwise it would be a sign of the family being destroyed.

Xu Chuan, who already had no doubt about his daughter's ability, was still very obedient. During this period, he was indeed very well behaved. He quickly withdrew the little hand he had stretched out to test her, cut off all improper contacts with the princes, and became a loyal and upright minister again.

As a result, he inevitably angered several princes and even suffered some losses at the hands of the second and fourth princes. Fortunately, he had a strong foundation and was able to hold on.

However, after this incident, he saw another side of the princes that they had never shown to others, and he realized that it was right for him not to get involved. It was actually a blessing in disguise.

However, Xu Chuan originally thought that the emperor was in his prime and could live for at least another ten or eight years. He would have enough time to downplay this unpleasantness, and no matter which prince came to the throne in the future, he would still be able to stand in the court.

But I didn't expect that the emperor would fall ill in such a short time. Judging from the situation, the disease is very severe. What if he can't make it...

Xu Chuan was so worried that he almost shaved his beard off. Now, several older princes were quite resentful towards him. If the emperor was unfortunate... and the new emperor came to the throne, how could he survive?

Sad, sad——

Soon what he worried about happened. Before the emperor could even leave, several princes who had not yet ascended the throne began to make things difficult for him in the court.

The cause of the incident was that one of his subordinates made a small mistake in the annual official assessment, which, under normal circumstances, would have only required timely correction.

However, this time, he was caught in a tight spot by the people arranged by the Second Prince in the Ministry of Personnel, and the matter was pinned on him. Several other princes, because of previous grudges, took the opportunity to attack him, forcing him to temporarily suspend his post and wait for investigation at home.

But those who conducted the review were all the princes’ people, so don’t they have the final say on what the results should be?

Xu Chuan couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. If the emperor didn't get better, he was afraid that he would really be in trouble this time. If it was just because of this mistake, it would be better to dismiss him from his post and investigate him.

What if a few people are ruthless and start investigating old matters...how many civil and military officials in the court dare to say that they can withstand the investigation?
