Chapter 33 I Feel Sorry for You
Chuntao waited for a long time but didn't hear Shen Jingxuan's voice. In a hurry, she opened the door and walked in.
"Miss, get up quickly." As she spoke, she pulled Shen Jingxuan's quilt and pulled her out of bed.
Shen Jingxuan said sleepily: "Chun Tao, if you don't tell me what's going on, I'll beat you to death."
"Hey, miss, can you take me to the street?" Chuntao said guiltily.
What big deal does she have? Going out to the streets to watch the fun is her biggest thing.
When Shen Jingxuan heard that Chuntao disturbed her sleep just to go out, she rushed towards Chuntao regardless of anything.
She threw Chuntao onto the bed, held her hands and was about to punish her.
Chun Tao begged for mercy in a hurry: "Miss, please listen to me. I haven't finished yet."
Shen Jingxuan glared at her: "Just say it, if you don't explain it clearly, I will punish you."
She stared at Chuntao closely, as if she would attack her if she said something that displeased her.
"Miss, people on the street are talking about the prince and the third lady. Shall we go and listen?" Chuntao's eyes glowed green with excitement.
What happened between Shen Jinghuan and Xie Zihan? I must go and hear about it.
She patted Chuntao hard and said, "Why don't you get up and dress up your young lady?"
"I'll be right there, right there." After saying that, he ran out in a hurry.
Half an hour later, when the two of them finished packing, Shen Jingxuan hurried out of the house with Chuntao.
They went to the busiest teahouse on the street, which was packed with people.
Originally Shen Jingxuan wanted to find a more secluded location, but now there is almost no place to stand.
"A Xuan..." Shen Jingxuan heard someone calling her and looked in the direction of the voice.
Jiang Shaoying was seen lying on the window of the private room on the second floor, waving vigorously at me.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Jingxuan took Chuntao through the crowd and finally reached the second floor after some twists and turns.
Jiang Shaoying had already opened the door and was standing outside waiting. When he saw her coming, he hurriedly pulled her into the private room.
She looked very proud: "Ah Xuan, how is it? I am smart and booked a private room in advance."
Looking at Jiang Shaoying's proud look, Shen Jingxuan curled the corners of her lips: "Yes, you are the smartest."
After the two of them sat down, they listened to the storyteller talking below.
"Today I will tell you about this woman who was rejected by her fiancé and whose engagement was broken off."
"This sister has been stupid since she was young, but she already has a marriage contract..."
The storyteller on the stand downstairs was spitting everywhere.
The more the listeners listened to the book, the angrier they became. What about the sister being stupid and having been engaged since childhood?
How the fiancé was disgusted with the foolish woman and tried every means to break off the engagement.
The younger sister fell in love with her older sister's fiancé, and the two of them plotted to murder her sister and secretly fell in love...
Those who don't know the story will listen to it, but those who know the story will be furious.
There were constant discussions coming from downstairs, and Shen Jingxuan's eyelids twitched when she heard it.
"Listen, isn't that Miss Shen who has been stupid since childhood?"
"Yes, isn't she the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo? Where did her sister come from?"
"I know, it's from the second room."
Shen Jingxuan raised her eyebrows slightly. Wow, he even knew their identities clearly.
I just heard the people downstairs continue to say: "Didn't you see Miss Shen San and the prince embarrass Miss Shen Da on the street a few days ago?"
"Yes, yes, no wonder the Third Miss said that Miss Shen's innocence was ruined, because she didn't want the prince to marry her."
"The Third Miss is so evil, she has a heart of a vicious snake."
"Wow, Miss Shen is so pitiful. Her engagement was snatched away from her."
"Didn't they issue an imperial decree yesterday to grant the marriage?"
"I heard from my relatives who work in their house that Miss Shen and the prince slept together."
"It's so shameless."
The discussions downstairs became more and more intense. Shen Jingxuan lay on the second-floor window and looked up at the sky in silence.
She didn't understand why the news spread all over the streets in just one night.
Most importantly, why do they know so much?
What she never expected was that their words became more and more outrageous.
"The two were caught by Miss Shen on the spot. You don't know how miserable Miss Shen was at that time."
"My eyes were swollen from crying for several days. I broke off the engagement with the prince in order to help the third young lady."
"The Crown Prince actually betrayed Miss Shen. The Third Miss is simply shameless."
Shen Jingxuan was going crazy. Who spread this? Was she helping Shen Jinghuan and Xie Zihan?
Her eyes were swollen from crying for days? What a joke, she didn't shed a single tear.
Before she could continue thinking, someone suddenly stood up from where they were talking.
The people around him turned their heads to look at him, and he actually shouted: "I feel sorry for Miss Shen."
"Miss Shen is so pitiful."
"Miss Shen is very broad-minded. Who said that Miss Shen is stupid or blind?"
"Miss Xuan is so miserable"
Shen Jingxuan suddenly heard that the people downstairs stopped calling her Miss Shen and started calling her Miss Xuan directly.
The tea she had just drunk was sprayed out directly. Chuntao hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe it clean for Shen Jingxuan.
I don't know who started it, but the people downstairs stopped listening to the storyteller continue.
They all shouted: "I feel sorry for Xuan, I feel sorry for Xuan..."
Jiang Shaoying and her maid were laughing happily, and Chuntao covered her mouth and laughed out loud.
After being stunned for a moment, Shen Jingxuan pulled a few people and quickly sneaked out through the back door.
If she were seen by others, she couldn't guarantee that she would be able to walk out safely.
Shen Jingxuan and her companions walked out of the back door and were still far away, but they could still hear the shouting in the teahouse.
They were afraid of being recognized and did not dare to wander around the streets. They took Jiang Shaoying all the way back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
At this time, Shen Jingxuan was still in shock. The power of public opinion was indeed strong, and it opened her eyes as a modern person.
Jiang Shaoying couldn't stop smiling: "Axuan, I didn't expect you to become famous all of a sudden."
"You want to give it to you?" Shen Jingxuan lay back on the chair with a look of despair.
I don’t know which bastard actually let the storyteller talk about her. Is this something a human being would do?
"Ah Xuan, after a few days, no one will remember it, so you should stay out less these days."
"Okay." Shen Jingxuan responded.
Seeing that she was listless because of what happened on the street, Jiang Shaoying chatted with her for a while and then got up and left.
Shen Jingxuan personally escorted the person out of the house, returned to her room, and lay weakly on the bed.
Her mind was full of thoughts about who the hell was that had done such a shameful thing.
The sun was shining brightly, and the breeze passed through the window, into the girl's boudoir, and gently ruffled her hair.
Lu Jinxuan paced back and forth in the room, anxiously waiting for the maid to return home.
After returning home that day, she became angrier and angrier the more she thought about it. In her anger, she smashed everything in the house but still felt unsatisfied.
Last night, I learned that the emperor had arranged for Shen Jinghuan to be married to the prince as a concubine, and I felt much better.
What happened on the street today was what she asked her maid to do.
Lu Jinxuan asked the maid to give the storyteller some silver and asked him to keep telling the story in the teahouse.
The things that were being spread by word of mouth on the street were also arranged by her in advance.
Thinking of Shen Jingxuan's miserable appearance after today, Lu Jinxuan smiled happily.
Shen Jingxuan, let’s see how you can go out in the future. If you can’t go out, how can you ask the Regent to send you back home?
The more Lu Jinxuan thought about it, the happier she became. Even when she heard footsteps outside, the smile on her face never stopped.
Seeing the maid come in, Lu Jinxuan put away her smile and asked anxiously: "Bingyue, what's going on outside?"
The maid's eyes were full of excitement: "Miss, it's all settled now. The news has spread like wildfire in the streets."
Lu Jinxuan stood up excitedly: "Really? That's great, let's see how she goes out in the future."
It’s better if it goes viral, because it will have unexpected effects.
The maid flattered: "Miss, you are really amazing. You can even think of this."
"Who told her to go to the Regent to complain that day and asked the Regent to send her back home? How could I let her go?" Speaking of the Regent, Lu Jinxuan gritted her teeth in hatred.
She would never let Shen Jingxuan have an easy time, nor would she let her get close to the Regent easily.
"That's right, the Regent is so handsome and handsome, he is the best match for the young lady, then Miss Shen is nothing."
The maid's flattery won Lu Jinxuan's heart.
She also always believed that she was the only one worthy of being the regent.
As the sun sets, the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is extremely busy, with pedestrians standing on both sides of the road.
I saw a woman kneeling in front of the door of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, silently shedding tears.
The constant discussions of the people around her did not affect the woman at all.
"How is this going?"
"Who knows? I've been crying here for half an hour."
"We'll find out soon. The concierge has gone in to report."
Before Shen Jingxuan walked out of the house, the discussions had already spread into the house.
When she walked out of the house, she saw a woman in plain clothes kneeling on the steps crying.
The woman heard footsteps and looked at Shen Jingxuan with tearful eyes.
"It's you?" Shen Jingxuan asked in surprise.
