Chapter 294 Is Wei Shuyu crippled?

The next day.

Wenyun Pavilion.

After soaking overnight, Wei Shuyu successfully produced activated carbon.

And they produced crystal-clear white sugar.

"Big pot, this can be sold for money."

Choi Shin-ki squinted his eyes sweetly.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty didn't even understand cane sugar.

If you were to sell white sugar, the profits would be absolutely enormous...

"Not for sale!"

Wei Shuyu resolutely rejected the proposal.

Why?

Choi Shin-ki pouted and said, "Wen Yun Ge is in such a sorry state right now, they need to make some money."

*Smack*

Wei Shuyu raised his hand and smacked him on the head again.

"Why all this nonsense?"

"Wenyunge may be in a bad state, but the wholesale business in Huxian County hasn't stopped."

The group thought about it.

That's true...

The main source of income for folding fans came from wholesale sales by merchants from Hu County.

“But Da Guo, you’ve been in a coma for over a month, and Hu County has almost been taken over by Li Chongyi.”

Wei Shuyu's face darkened.

I don't want to talk about this.

"Can't you shut up with candy?"

"If you're bored, go study at the Imperial College."

Choi Shin-ki pouted.

I'm very unhappy.

Although Wei Shuyu had been cursing him, he felt quite pleased with himself.

For some reason, I feel extremely unwell today.

"Godbase, say less."

Fang Yi'ai advised, "I'll invite you to Wanhua Pavilion."

"It's from Wanhua Pavilion!" Choi Shin-ki said, pursing his lips.

"yes."

Fang Yi'ai grinned slyly: "So, as your brother, does that mean I can get things for free from now on?"

"I can't get something for free, but you can?"

Choi Shin-ki's eyes widened: "Do you want to be accused of not paying for women?"

well.

Actually, I kind of want to be called a freeloader.

Unfortunately, being Fang Xuanling's son, this dream was destined to remain unfulfilled.

"Wei Shuyu, come out!"

Just then, a wild voice rang out from outside the door.

Are you looking for trouble?

Wei Shuyu led the way out of Wenyun Pavilion...

Looking around, they saw a boy of similar age arrogantly walk up to them...

Behind him followed a dozen or so guards.

"Prince Yan!"

Fang Yi'ai frowned.

Prince Yan, Li You, was the fifth son of Li Shimin, and his mother was Consort Yin.

"How dare you!"

The head of the guards, Yan Hongliang, shouted: "Why don't you bow to His Highness Prince Yan?"

The group frowned.

However, proper etiquette must be observed in public...

"Greetings, Your Highness Prince Yan." The group bowed in unison.

"Wei Shuyu".

Li You walked around Wei Shuyu a few times and asked, "I heard you were unconscious for over a month. Have you recovered now?"

"Thank you for your concern, Prince Yan. I am currently recovering."

Wei Shuyu bowed and responded respectfully.

"oh?"

"You look really pale..."

Li You reached out and patted Wei Shuyu's cheek.

Very hard.

In no time, Wei Shuyu's face was red from being slapped.

"Li You, what are you doing?"

Choi Shin-ki stepped forward and gave him a hard shove.

Li You was almost pushed to the ground.

"How dare you!"

Yan Hongliang drew his blade with a swift motion: "You dare to attack the Prince of Yan in public? I think you're tired of living!"

"You bastard, how dare you bully Shenji?"

Fang Yi'ai grabbed a stool and smashed it at Yan Hongliang.

Bang.

A flash of light.

Yan Hongliang split the bench in half.

"This is outrageous! How dare they attack the Prince of Yan in public!"

Yan Hong waved his hand and said, "Men, seize all the people from Wenyun Pavilion!"

"Who dares?"

Choi Shin-ki and Bang Yi-ae both took a step forward.

"Big Brother, beat him up!"

"Brother, give him a piece of your mind!"

However, Wei Shuyu made no move.

"Um?"

The two turned their heads in confusion.

Wei Shuyu stood expressionless on the ground.

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Choi Shin-ki asked in confusion.

"Step back."

Wei Shuyu, his face dark, rebuked, "The other party is a prince."

What happened to the prince?

He's just a nobody, the Prince of Yan.

You have the Crown Prince and the Prince of Wei firmly under your control, so why are you afraid of a mere Prince of Yan?

"Big pot..."

Choi Shin-ki was extremely frustrated.

"Step back!" Wei Shuyu shouted again.

No refund.

Choi Shin-ki stomped his foot angrily: "He hit you, I can't stand it!"

Wei Shuyu clenched his fist, then quickly relaxed it.

Perhaps Wei Shuyu would have stood up yesterday.

But after hearing that Wei Zheng had risked his life to save him...

Wei Shuyu panicked!

His own madman-like behavior in the Taiji Hall.

This has already aroused the suspicion of Li Shimin and his ministers.

Why is Li You here?

Besides Li Shimin, who else could command him?

Obviously...

Li Shimin outwardly admitted his mistake to Wei Zheng, but inwardly he still harbored resentment.

He was using Li You to test himself.

If I were to overstep my bounds or act lawlessly, it could very well bring utter disaster upon the Wei family.

"Ha ha……"

Li You laughed loudly: "Everyone says that Wei Shuyu is audacious and reckless, but now it seems he's nothing special."

"You're talking nonsense!"

Choi Shin-ki took out the royal sack: "If you dare say another word, I'll put it on you!"

"King of Copybooks?"

Li You sneered, "This imperial gift sack of yours is long obsolete, why are you still showing it off?"

"You big dummy, take this!"

Choi Shin-ki rushed forward.

But Yan Hongliang grabbed him and lifted him up.

"You think you can fool me, the King?"

Li You tapped Cui Shenji on the head with his folding fan: "You attacked me in public. Considering you are the eldest son of the Cui family, I will spare you this time."

"However, while the death penalty may be spared, punishment will not be absolved..."

"Take him away and give him twenty strokes of the cane."

Li You waved his hand.

Choi Shin-ki struggled to look at Wei Shu-yu.

Wei Shuyu, however, was suffering even more than him...

"stop!"

Just then, Wu Qiqi came out.

He was also holding up a token.

"Seeing the Golden Dragon Token is like the Emperor Emeritus himself being present."

Wu Qiqi shouted sharply, "Why aren't you all bowing at once?"

Li You's eyes flickered.

Li Yuan and Li Shimin have reconciled, and now Li Yuan is someone Li Shimin cannot afford to offend.

He immediately bowed.

"Oh, it's Qiqi."

Straightening up, Li You said with a smile, "I was wondering why I didn't see you at Da'an Palace today. It turns out you were at Wenyun Pavilion."

"snort."

Wu Qiqi snorted coldly: "Release Cui Shenji, or I'll have the Emperor Emeritus beat you up!"

“He attacked me, I cannot let him go…” Li You shook his head.

You really dare to hit him?

However, Wu Qiqi was not easily intimidated by a few words: "His father is Cui Yixuan!"

Li You's expression changed drastically.

The Choi family won't say anything if an elder hits Choi Shin-ki.

Even if his peers beat up Choi Shin-ki, the Choi family wouldn't care.

But for a prince like you to dare to hit the eldest son of the Cui family is to slap the face of the Cui clan of Qinghe!

The Cui family won't say anything on the surface...

But I will definitely keep this in mind.

"never mind."

"Release Choi Shin-ki."

Li You waved his hand, not wanting to offend the Cui family over such a trivial matter.

After gaining his freedom, Choi Shin-ki glanced at Wei Shu-yu...

"Remains, I'm home!"

He did not greet Wei Shuyu.

And he didn't call me again.

He stood up for Wei Shuyu, but Wei Shuyu didn't help him...

Choi Shin-ki was very angry and disappointed.

"God's Foundation".

Fang Yi'ai stamped his foot anxiously: "Big brother, Shenji is gone..."

"Good riddance."

Wei Shuyu sighed: "You should go with him too."

Fang Yi'ai was in a panic.

In the end, she made a final decision and chose to be with Choi Shin-ki.

My brother's performance today was very disappointing.

"Seven Seven..."

Li You did not answer: "Wei Shuyu is already useless, why follow him?"

"As long as you're willing..."

"I can plead with my father to dissolve your engagement."

"The Prince of Yan."

Wu Qiqi's voice was cold: "Say it once is enough!"

"I am a daughter-in-law of the Wei family. If you dare to sow discord again, believe me, I will report you to the Emperor Emeritus for the crime of disrupting the harmony of a subject's family!"

Li You squinted.

Wei Shuyu is finished.

But Wu Qiqi is indeed a difficult person to deal with.

No wonder her father wanted to marry her off to her elder brother...

"Never mind, let's go."

Wei Shuyu was incompetent; he was good enough to get by.

The Duke of Zheng's Mansion.

After finishing his shift, Wei Zheng returned to his residence by carriage.

As soon as I stepped off the carriage, I saw the steward chatting animatedly with a richly dressed young man.

"The master is back?"

The butler quickly stepped forward to greet them.

"Um."

Wei Zheng nodded expressionlessly.

Ignoring the young man, Wei Zheng continued walking into the mansion.

"This humble one, Luo Dan, greets Master Wei." The young man quickly bowed.

Luo Dan?

Wei Zheng stopped.

His stern face relaxed slightly, and he even showed a hint of kindness.

He had heard that name several times.

She is her son's capable assistant.

"Are you here to see Shuyu?" Wei Zheng couldn't help but ask.

"Replying to Master Wei."

Luo Dan bowed respectfully and said, "I heard that Master Wei has recovered, so I came to visit him."

"Have you been in charge of things in Hu County all along?" Wei Zheng asked again.

"Thanks to Master Wei's trust, I have been in Hu County all this time," Luo Dan replied respectfully.

"Um."

Wei Zheng nodded.

I was just about to offer some praise when I suddenly seemed to remember something...

"Shuyu has never been to Hu County?" Wei Zheng asked.

"ah?"

Luo Dan was taken aback: "No."

Upon hearing this, Wei Zheng's face immediately turned cold...

"Old Wu, has Shuyu gone to the Censorate these past two days?" Wei Zheng questioned.

Well……

Old Wu was also stunned.

Go to hell!

The young master has never even worn official robes.

"Never been there?"

Wei Zheng's face was as cold as frost.

He did not take up a post in the Censorate.

He did not go to Hu County to oversee the business matters.

He didn't go to the Eastern Palace to assist the Crown Prince...

This is a crime of dereliction of duty!

"Old Wu!"

Wei Zheng shouted loudly.

"Please wait a moment, sir. This old servant will go and get the rattan cane right away."

Without Wei Zheng needing to explain, Lao Wu knew what Wei Zheng was thinking.

Just then, a servant from Wenyun Pavilion hurriedly ran over...

"It's terrible! Young Master Wei has been humiliated by the Prince of Yan."

Swish.

Wei Zheng's face suddenly darkened.

"What exactly happened?"

The servant then recounted what had happened at Wenyun Pavilion.

"Cough cough..."

Old Wu asked awkwardly, "Sir, should we still take the cane?"

Wei Zheng ignored him.

He pondered for a moment, then sat down on the steps by himself.

"Tell Uncle Yu that I'll be waiting for him to come home at the door!"
