Chapter 174 Kindness
He immediately bowed slightly towards him and said, "Greetings, Prince Nangong!"
Nangong Junze turned slightly to the side, glanced at Jiang Shuyu, and said quickly: "Madam, you are not feeling well, please get up quickly!"
Jiang Shuyu helped Ruan up, and then she looked at Nangong Junze carefully. She was too far away just now and didn't see him clearly. Now that Nangong Junze was in front of her, Jiang Shuyu realized that something was wrong with him. His face was indeed a little allergic, but it was not as obvious as the one in his eyes. You know, when she rescued him yesterday, he didn't have such injuries on his face.
Seeing the surprise flashing in Jiang Shuyu's eyes, Nangong Junze couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He quietly stood sideways, then looked at Jiang Shuyu and said seriously: "Thanks to Miss Jiang's life-saving grace yesterday, I was able to save my life. If I hadn't met Miss Jiang, I'm afraid I would have been in great danger! Today I learned that Miss Jiang is actually General Jiang's daughter. I will definitely pay a visit to her someday!"
Listening to Nangong Junze's words, Ruan looked at Jiang Shuyu in astonishment. Why hadn't she heard Yu'er mention this matter? Even Prince Nangong was injured because of this. It was conceivable how dangerous it was. Yu'er was able to save him. She was really bold!
Seeing the scrutiny in Ruan's eyes, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but feel a little guilty. She looked at Ruan and whispered, "Mother, when I met Prince Nangong yesterday, he was sleeping alone on the roadside. Yu'er happened to send him to his master on the way. When I came back, it was already late. I thought you had already fallen asleep, so I didn't tell you."
After listening to Jiang Shuyu's words, Ruan nodded in understanding. Seeing a smile flash in Nangong Junze's eyes, Ruan couldn't help but feel a little alert. Then she looked at Nangong Junze and said with a smile:
"I'm glad Prince Nangong is alright. Yu'er happened to run into me yesterday and accidentally saved him. It was just a simple favor. How dare I trouble Prince Nangong to come and thank you in person?"
Nangong Junze looked at Ruan's deliberately distant tone, his eyebrows raised, a smile flashed in his eyes, but he didn't insist in the end: "No matter what, Miss Jiang saved my life. If there is any need for me in the future, I will definitely help you!"
Seeing Nangong Junze's serious expression, Jiang Shuyu narrowed her eyes slightly, and then looked at Nangong Junze and bowed, "Prince Nangong, you are too kind. If you feel sorry for me, I will naturally ask for your help if I need you in the future!"
Hearing Jiang Shuyu's words, Nangong Junze's eyes lit up, and he immediately took out a jade pendant from his body and handed it to Jiang Shuyu, "This is my jade pendant. If Miss Jiang needs to find me in the future, this jade pendant will be a token of trust!"
Looking at the jade pendant in Nangong Junze's hand, Jiang Shuyu hesitated for a long time before taking it. The two exchanged a few words before Jiang Shuyu bowed and left.
Nangong Junze watched Jiang Shuyu's carriage slowly leave, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. The familiar feeling of intimacy surged into his heart again, making him a little confused. It was not until Huan Wu came to find him that Nangong Junze suppressed the strangeness in his heart and left with him.
Watching Jiang Shuyu and the other two leave one after another, Xiao Jingchuan couldn't help but frown, suppressing the rage in his heart.
Yifeng watched Xiao Jingchuan stop in his tracks, feeling somewhat puzzled. It was not until he saw Jiang Shuyu's carriage and Nangong Junze's carriage slowly leaving that Yifeng realized that his prince was a step too late, leaving him with nowhere to vent his frustration. He quietly took two steps back, and finally he breathed a sigh of relief.
These little movements of his naturally did not escape Xiao Jingchuan's eyes. Seeing him dodging, Xiao Jingchuan glanced at him sideways and then said, "Since you like walking so much, then you can just walk back."
Yi Feng looked at Xiao Jingchuan in surprise. Seeing his serious expression, he dared not show any dissatisfaction. He looked at Xiao Jingchuan and said respectfully, "Yes! I obey your command!"
Watching Nangong Junze's carriage gradually go away, Xiao Jingchuan couldn't help but lower his eyes. He was very confused about Nangong Junze's behavior. He didn't believe that Nangong Junze came to Dongli Kingdom this time just to experience the customs and culture of Dongli Kingdom. Even if it was for better cooperation, Nangong Junze would not come alone so easily. There must be something he didn't know.
Thinking of what happened yesterday, Xiao Jingchuan couldn't help but look at Yun Chi and said, "Send two more people to secretly protect the princess."
"Yes!" Yun Chi's eyes flashed slightly when he heard Xiao Jingchuan's order, and he quickly responded.
On this side, Xiao Jingchuan increased the protection of Jiang Shuyu, but he didn't know that Jiang Shuyu had encountered a difficult situation at this time.
"Miss Jiang, my son can no longer hold on. Please save him, Miss Jiang!"
Listening to the words outside, Jiang Shuyu frowned slightly, lifted the corner of the curtain to look at the people outside, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Seeing Jiang Shuyu like this, Ruan's heart couldn't help but tighten, and she looked at Jiang Shuyu hurriedly, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Seeing the panic in Ruan's eyes, Jiang Shuyu hurried forward to comfort her, "Don't worry, mother, I'll go out and take a look too!"
Just as Jiang Shuyu was about to leave, Ruan grabbed her and asked in confusion, "Is this the Crown Prince of Nanmo Kingdom?"
Seeing the anxiety in Ruan's eyes, Jiang Shuyu couldn't help but feel puzzled. She didn't know why Ruan cared so much. However, since Ruan was pregnant, it was hard to let her worry. She immediately looked at her and said, "Don't worry, mother. My master has already found a way to save him. He will definitely not let anything happen to him. Mother, please go back to the mansion with Nanny Yang. I'll be back soon!"
Hearing what Jiang Shuyu said, Nanny Yang hurriedly stepped forward and came to Ruan, looking at Jiang Shuyu seriously and said, "Don't worry, Madam, I have an old servant to serve you here, nothing will happen!"
Jiang Shuyu nodded slightly, then looked at Ruan, "Madam Yang, take my mother back to the mansion first and serve her carefully!" After Jiang Shuyu finished speaking, she got off the carriage.
Nanny Yang saw the worry in Ruan's eyes and hurried forward to comfort her, "Don't worry, Madam. The young lady is now able to stand on her own. We were just causing her trouble. The mansion still needs Madam to take charge!"
Seeing Yang Ma's pointed expression, Ruan Shi immediately realized what was going on. She looked at Yang Ma and said, "Ma'am, you're right. I was wrong. The young lady drank a little too much at the banquet today. Let's go back quickly so she can have a good rest!"
