Chapter 547 Tough Great Elder Princess

“Let’s see how it goes and talk about it later. If I can’t choose you as my consort, I’ll think of some way to do it in the future!” Chu Liuyue said with a gloomy face. At the thought that he couldn’t marry the girl he liked, he really felt uncomfortable.

“Yes, Your Highness. I’ll do as you ask. I’ll delay getting married until you can marry me,” Shao Yanru said in a sweet voice and lowered her head with a red face. It was quite disgraceful to talk about her marriage with a man. Nevertheless, she acted properly with an appropriate look. She managed to do that after practicing in front of the mirror thousands of times.

“I’m sorry to make you feel aggrieved. Rest assured. When I inherit the throne, the first thing I will do is to take you in the imperial palace and inform my harem that you are the girl I would most like to marry,” Chu Liuyue said with his heart softened. If Shao Yanru delayed getting married, it didn’t mean that she should just wait for him. The Misses at Shao Yanru’s age had basically got engaged.

“Your Highness...” Shao Yanru looked at Chu Liuyue with excitement and reached out to pull his sleeve uncontrollably, seeming to be involuntarily moved. Nevertheless, she took a few steps back to the door after doing that, and said affectionately, “Your Highness, I’m leaving now. I’ll wait for you to come and marry me!”

“I will. Rest assured!” Chu Liuyue softly comforted her, who was as beautiful and fragile as jade. He really wanted to marry her and cherish her. However, his father and grandma might not agree with the marriage between them.

He had prepared for the worst. If he was really not allowed to marry her, he would take her in the imperial palace after inheriting the throne. When the time came, no one would be able to stop him. Of course, he was the perfect match for the first beauty.

“Your Highness, I will never forget your affection for me!” Knowing that it was about time, Shao Yanru looked at Chu Liuyue softly with tears and said. After that, she clenched her teeth, turned around, opened the door, and hurried downstairs after looking back at him reluctantly.

Chu Liuyue felt increasingly delighted. Any man would be very delighted to make such a beauty so attached to him.

He stood up, picked up the writing brush again, and carefully painted the peony under his hand...

Shao Wanru did not know what Shao Yanru was going to do, but she guessed that Shao Yanru was going to meet someone. So Shao Yanru sent her away, for fear that she would discover something if she kept following her. Nevertheless, she did want to inquire about what had happened down the mountain. Although her grandma had sent her a message before, she wasn’t told in detail.

“Miss, the carriage is still following us.” Shao Wanru closed her eyes for rest, while Yujie continued saying indignantly, “We have been followed all the way. When we turned a corner or slowed down, they did the same.”

“Let’s see if the carriage will follow us to my grandma’s mansion!” Shao Wanru said unhurriedly.

It was certain that there was a noble person in the carriage, and the person was watching her. She didn’t know what the person was after. Nevertheless, since it was a noble person, whose identity couldn’t be exposed, she believed that the carriage would also enter Great Elder Princess’s Mansion later and then she could find out who the person was.

Shao Wanru’s carriage went all the way to the gate of Great Elder’s Mansion. Someone, who came to ask, hurriedly let her carriage get in through the side door after knowing that it was the Fifth Miss of Duke Xing’s Mansion in the carriage.

After entering the mansion and taking a few more turns, her carriage finally arrived at the parking lot of Rui’an Great Elder Princess’s Mansion.

Yujie got off the carriage first. After looking around and finding no other carriage following them there, she breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to help Shao Wanru get off the carriage, while the coachman stood aside.

After getting out of the carriage, Shao Wanru looked at the respectful coachman standing aside, slightly lifted the corners of her mouth to show a cold smile and instructed him, “Feed the horses later. Remember that this is Great Elder Princess’s Mansion. Don’t be careless or wander around. If anything goes wrong, your life will be imperiled!”

“Yes, Fifth Miss, I know!” The coachman nodded repeatedly and said.

After giving the order, Shao Wanru led Yujie to go inside behind an old maid. Yujie suddenly stopped and looked back after taking a few steps. Seeing the coachman well-behaved, she frowned.

Since Qing’er found the carriage delayed by the coachman during her journey down the mountain, Shao Wanru’s servants knew that the coachman was not reliable and probably worked for Duke Xing’s Mansion. They had better get rid of him!

“Miss, the coachman...” Yujie took two steps forward in an attempt to warn Shao Wanru. Since they were in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion. it was a good opportunity to get rid of him.

“Talk about it later. Let’s go!” Shao Wanru shook her head calmly and motioned for her to stop talking.

They went all the way to Great Elder Princess’s courtyard. As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw Great Elder Princess sitting in a chair with her chin slightly raised and looking quite commanding. However, after Shao Wanru bowed to her, she immediately grabbed her hand, held her in her arms tight, burst into tears and said, “Zhuozhuo, my poor Zhuozhuo!”

Thinking that her granddaughter had almost been forced to be a nun, Great Elder Princess was angry and full of hatred. The old woman of Duke Xing’s Mansion thought that she could smooth it over by pretending to pass out, but she definitely would not spare her. After coming out of the Empress Dowager’s palace, she went to meet the emperor on purpose. Others probably didn’t know that her granddaughter and Prince Chen had been engaged in secret, but the emperor did.

As she expected, hearing her words, the emperor became furious, and the next day she got the news that Duke Xing had been beaten.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess was very pleased. Although she could not beat the fainted old woman, she could beat the old woman’s son so that the old woman didn’t dare to do anything else to hurt her granddaughter.

“Grandma, I’m fine. I’m fine!” Shao Wanru reached out to pat Rui’an Great Elder Princess’s thin shoulder and said softly.

Great Elder Princess had always been tough in front of others, but was gentle towards Shao Wanru every time, which made Shao Wanru feel warm. Although she didn’t have the so-called family members of Duke Xing’s Mansion, she still had real family members.

“Your Highness, since the Fifth Miss is fine, you should be delighted. Why are you crying again?” Nanny Gao also tried to persuade Great Elder Princess to stop crying, while reaching out to support Great Elder Princess.

The word “again” in this sentence made Great Elder Princess involuntarily taunt her, “You old dog, stop talking nonsense!”

“Your Highness, you really wronged me. I didn’t talk nonsense. It’s clear that these days you felt sad whenever you thought of what happened to the Fifth Miss,” Nanny Gao said exaggeratedly, while helping Great Elder Princess sit down.

“Grandma!” With her hand taken by Great Elder Princess’s hand, Shao Wanru said and felt as warm as being soaked in warm water.

“It’s nonsense. I will beat you if you keep taking nonsense!” Great Elder Princess, who showed her weakness in front of her granddaughter, blushed, reached out to push Nanny Gao away and said this deliberately to frighten her.

“Okay, okay, okay. I don’t dare to talk nonsense anymore!” Nanny Gao immediately said with a smile and invited Shao Wanru to sit down. After working as Great Elder Princess’s maid for many years, Nanny Gao knew that Great Elder Princess was outwardly tough and inwardly gentle.

“Where is Hao’er?” After looking around and not finding Shao Yuanhao, Shao Wanru could not help asking.

“He is attending classes in the study. I’ll send someone to ask him to come over!” After looking Shao Wanru up and down and finding nothing with her, Great Elder Princess felt relieved and said.

Shao Wanru hurriedly reached out to stop her and said, “Grandma, since Hao’er is studying, I don’t want to disturb him. I’ll leave after sitting for a while.”

“Why are you in such a hurry?” Rui’an Great Elder Princess said in displeasure, “Your paternal grandma won’t die. I heard from the servant sent there by the Empress Dowager that she won’t get seriously ill for the time being in spite of being out of spirits!”

“Since I came down the mountain to see her, I have to go and have a look at her, in case they should make any trouble!” Shao Wanru said with a smile.

“Zhuozhuo, I won’t stop you from going there, and I can’t do that. The old woman pretends to be seriously ill at this moment. If I really stop you from going to see her, you may get into another trouble. But there is one thing I want to make it clear to you. This matter is clearly related to her. Since she is unamiable, why do you still insist on staying in Duke Xing’s Mansion? How about living in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion with Hao’er?”

Rui’an Great Elder Princess said, and then told Shao Wanru in detail what had happened in the imperial palace. After that, she asked, Zhuozhuo, do you still want to go back to such a home? Why don’t I take this opportunity to put pressure on Duke Xing’s Mansion and invite you to live here for a period of time?”

Great Elder Princess meant that since she could invite Shao Wanru to live in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion for a period of time, she could make Shao Wanru stay longer. After Shao Wanru came down the mountain, she could invite Shao Wanru to live in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion. After Prince Chen announced their engagement, she could help Shao Wanru prepare for the wedding. During this period of time, she could keep Shao Wanru in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion. After all, Duke Xing’s Mansion seemed to be very unamiable to Shao Wanru.

She could use what they did to Shao Wanru this time as the evidence to make them give in. Although her granddaughter had to get out from Duke Xing’s Mansion on the wedding day, her granddaughter just needed to stay there for several days and could spend the rest of her time in Great Elder Princess’s Mansion.

“Grandma, I want to live in Duke Xing’s Mansion. I will get everything they owe me, Hao’er and my parents back!” Shao Wanru shook her head, looked at Rui’an Great Elder Princess firmly and said.

Her words were sharp, and she said that with a hint of uncontrollable coldness in her gloomy eyes.

She had not made Duke Xing’s Mansion pay for what they had done, so she would never let Duke Xing’s Mansion go easily.

Hearing her words, Great Elder Princess also became sullen. Shao Wanru could protect herself if she left, but could she really leave what they had done to her parents aside?

“The title of nobility belongs to Hao’er, and no one can take it away from him!” Seeing that Rui’an Great Elder Princess was still hesitating, Shao Wanru added immediately, “It was taken away by someone, and now I must get it back! Only in this way can I comfort my parents in the nether world.”

In fact, the most important thing was the blood feud. In the last life, they secretly killed her and all her family members. How could she get over such a deep blood feud so easily? But she could not tell her grandma about these!

“Since you have decided to do that, I will definitely help you!” Rui’an Great Elder Princess gnashed her teeth with her eyes turning red and said with hatred. Thinking of her daughter and son-in-law, she could not hide her sorrow. All this was caused by the old woman of Duke Xing’s Mansion, but there might be other inside stories.

Despite her high status, she could not interfere in the affairs of other mansions. Although she smelled a rat, she could not investigate into the affairs of Duke Xing’s Mansion. Now her granddaughter was indeed a suitable person. However, she was afraid that those of Duke Xing’s Mansion were so vicious that they would hurt her granddaughter.

“Don’t worry, grandma. I will be fine!” Knowing what Great Elder Princess was worried about, Shao Wanru shook her hand and said like a spoiled child.

Looking at her granddaughter in front, Great Elder Princess felt her heart softened and nodded yes.

“Grandma, can you send some servants to measure the size of my yard and make a set of furniture for me later?” Seeing that Great Elder Princess had calmed down, Shao Wanru said with a sweet smile.
