I just want to live a good life

Chapter 102 Just Let Her Disappear

"Qingyan, thank you so much today. I didn't expect you to ask Dong Jingshu to come here for my matter."

Cui Ruyi looked at Su Nuan with gratitude, which made Su Nuan feel a little ashamed. Although she wanted to help Cui Ruyi, Dong Jingshu was not someone she had found.

She liked Cui Ruyi very much and truly regarded her as a friend. She didn't want to hide anything from her, so she told Cui Ruyi the whole story of the Dong brothers and sisters coming to "catch the adulterer".

"Could such a vicious plan really come from Cheng Ansu?" Cui Ruyi couldn't believe it.

Su Nuan nodded with certainty, "This Cheng Ansu is very cunning. Of course, it is possible that someone around her is giving her advice."

"Then Qingyan, you have to be careful. If she fails to harm you once, she will do it again."

Su Nuan sighed, "I know I should be careful, but you can never be too defensive! Just like what happened today, no matter how defensive I was, I could never have guessed that she would be so shameless as to fabricate something out of thin air and use Dong Jingshu to attack me."

Cui Ruyi also frowned after hearing this, "This is really a troublesome matter, unless she no longer likes His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, or she disappears from the Imperial City."

Su Nuan suddenly had an idea in her mind, "Ruyi, you are absolutely right. If I make her disappear, I can completely get rid of this trouble of her."

Cui Ruyi said in panic: "What do you want to do? You are not going to kill her, are you? She is the daughter of the prime minister. If you kill her, you will get into big trouble."

"What are you thinking? Why would I kill someone? I want her to leave the imperial city!"

"How to leave?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll tell you when I do."

"I thought you already had an idea." Cui Ruyi was a little disappointed.

In fact, Su Nuan did have an idea, but the time was not right yet, so she didn't want to say it for the time being.

The two chatted for a while, and Cui Ruyi's carriage soon arrived at the Prince's Mansion.

When they were about to part, Su Nuan suddenly felt a little reluctant. She would rather be with Cui Ruyi than go back to Duiyueju and be bored alone.

After agreeing on the next time to meet, Su Nuan reluctantly got off the carriage.

She sat on a stone outside the corner gate for a while before reluctantly passing through the corner gate and returning to Duiyueju.

The first person to come forward and speak to her was Mei Xiang, "My Lady Concubine, did everything go well today?"

"It wasn't smooth, and I encountered a little trouble."

"Has the problem been solved?" Meixiang asked worriedly.

Su Nuan suddenly felt a little ironic. She had trusted Meixiang because of the grudge between Meixiang and Luzhu, but she didn't expect that she would be the first person to betray her.

Normally she shouldn't stay with the person who betrayed her, but she still had use for Meixiang, and it was not time to drive her away yet.

"If it's a problem, it won't be easy to solve."

"What should I do?"

Su Nuan replied nonchalantly: "What is there to worry about? Don't we still have His Highness? Didn't you also say that His Highness treats me well? Now that I'm in trouble, he will naturally help me solve it."

“……” Perhaps shocked by Su Nuan’s confidence, Meixiang was speechless for a moment.

It turns out they were all lying to me, Su Nuan thought, if they really felt that Mu Yunting was good to me, shouldn’t they agree with them now?

In Duiyueju, Baozhu was turning the soil in the vegetable garden. Only a few of the strongest leafy vegetables were still growing in the field, and the rest had already been put into the vegetable basket.

Seeing Su Nuan coming back, Baozhu said, "Madam Concubine, the dishes have been put away and are all here. Should we keep some or send them all to the kitchen?"

"Keep some of it, and when you send the rest to the kitchen, tell Kang Dahong not to send food to Duiyueju today. We'll cook a small meal for ourselves."

"Then what else would Your Majesty want to eat? I'll bring some back from the kitchen."

"No need, today we'll just eat the vegetables you picked."

Su Nuan is an omnivore. She seldom eats vegetarian food since her life in Duiyueju has gotten better. Although Baozhu thought it was strange that she suddenly became a vegetarian, she was always a talkative person. So she didn't ask any questions and just lowered her head to work.

Baozhu didn't ask, but that didn't mean the others didn't ask, especially Chunliu. When she opened the door and heard Su Nuan's words, she hurriedly said, "Miss, we have your favorite sea bass in the kitchen today. This sea bass is not available every day. It would be a pity not to eat it!"

Hearing that there was her favorite fish, Su Nuan swallowed silently and changed the topic, "Then Baozhu, when you deliver the food later, please bring back a sea bass and I will cook it myself."

"Miss, we have barbecue skewers today. Manager Kang knows that you like it, so he asked him to skewer a lot of it. He said that the mutton is all top-quality fat mutton that he personally selected, and it is very delicious."

Su Nuan swallowed again and said embarrassedly: "Then Baozhu, please bring back some skewers of meat."

Chunliu was about to speak again, but Su Nuan quickly stopped her. She was afraid that Chunliu would mention something delicious again, and she couldn't help herself.

Unexpectedly, when Chunliu was stopped, Meixiang asked, "Then would the concubine drink fruit tea or flower tea in the evening?"

"Have some sour plum soup!" Su Nuan replied casually, but she regretted it as soon as she finished speaking. She had wanted to take a few people to have a bitter pastime dinner tonight and recall the friendship they had shared during those days of hunger and cold, but it seemed that it was not possible now.

Just when Su Nuan was regretting her greed, in the imperial mausoleum outside the imperial city, Mu Yunting was listening to Lie Feng's report on Su Nuan's actions outside that day.

Liefeng reported very carefully. She repeated every word for the route Su Nuan took, the food she ate, and the words she said.

When he talked about Su Nuan dressed up as a peasant woman and squatting on the roadside eating sesame cakes, Mu Yunting was stunned at first, and then he smiled unconsciously.

But when he heard that the Dong brothers and sisters went to Liangyi Zhai to "catch an adulterer", his face suddenly turned gloomy.

"Marquis Zhongyuan really has a good way of educating his son. He even dares to frame someone from my Prince's Mansion! If I don't teach him a lesson, he won't learn his lesson."

"What does Your Highness want to do?" Ye Yin asked.

Mu Yunting replied: "Doesn't the Marquis of Zhongyuan have a concubine outside? Let someone tell this to the Marquis of Zhongyuan's wife."

Ye Yin smiled and said, "The wife of Marquis Zhongyuan is a well-known tigress. If she knew that Marquis Zhongyuan has a concubine outside, I'm afraid Marquis Zhongyuan will not be able to live in peace."

"This is to punish him for not raising his son properly. This small punishment is not enough for daring to frame the Crown Prince's concubine!"

"What else does your highness want?"

"I remember that Marquis Zhongyuan's business was doing well, especially the silk business. Nearly half of the silk shops in the imperial city were selling his products. It was hard for his family to handle such a large volume, so I asked someone to help him share some of the burden."

This is directly stealing business! Liefeng, who was standing by, was shocked when he heard this.

"That... Your Highness... I heard that the person behind this incident was the Prime Minister's daughter Cheng Ansu."
