Chapter 41 Brother Prince, please make the decision for me

Yun Qingqing looked Ye Zhishen up and down, touching her chin thoughtfully.

"Master Yun, let me tell you, I was really scared this time!"

Ye Zhishen recounted what had happened with both excitement and fear.

It turned out that ever since he received Yun Qingqing's advice a few days ago, telling him to stay away from the river, he had always kept it in mind. He always walked around the river when he went out and always carried the talisman with him.

Nothing happened afterwards, and he gradually became relieved. However, he still did not approach the river, thinking of finding time to ask Master Yun to calculate for him to see if he had survived the calamity.

But just the day before yesterday, he heard a loud noise coming from the side hall in his yard, followed by the sound of his third sister crying loudly. He rushed over to check the situation in a hurry, but his foot slipped as he entered the door, and he fell forward uncontrollably, and his eye socket hit the corner of the table hard.

The impact was so severe that Ye Zhishen felt as if his left eye had exploded instantly, and then he lost all feeling.

He was so scared that he thought, could it be that the injury was too severe and the pain was numb? Could his eyes be ruined?

But the maids and servants nearby hurriedly pulled him up, and after checking him up and down, they breathed a sigh of relief and said that fortunately the young master was okay. Ye Zhishen touched his eyes and looked in the mirror, and sure enough, he was unharmed.

He suddenly remembered the talisman to ward off disasters, took it out and looked at it, his face changed.

I saw a big hole appeared on the talisman!

Moreover, the runes that were originally clear on it also disappeared!

His heart was pounding, and he asked the maid what happened to the water and broken porcelain pieces on the floor.

The maid said that it was the fish tank that the third young lady had just bought that was broken. After further questioning, it turned out that the fish tank was filled with water from the river!

Unexpectedly, while hiding, he still fell into the river water!

Ye Zhishen told everything in detail, and patted his chest in fear:

"If it weren't for the talisman you gave me, I would have been blind by now!"

"Oh, he won't be completely blind then." Yun Qingqing said calmly, "but he will have to take care of it for a few months. He will have problems seeing with his left eye, and there will be a big scar above his eye."

Ye Zhishen took a breath and touched his left eyebrow:

"I can't have a scar on such a handsome face! Otherwise, in the future..." How can I get married?

He swallowed the second half of the sentence, put on a smile and said:

"Master Yun, are you going to visit the palace? I've been coming here every autumn since the year before last, so I'm very familiar with it. I'll take you on a tour!"

Yun Qingqing thought for a moment and nodded:

"Okay, let's go."

Ye Zhishen was indeed familiar with the terrain here. After taking her to visit several places, a group of people suddenly came walking in a lively manner on the side road, and there were many familiar faces among them.

Leading the group were Xiao Zirui and Su Yurou, surrounded by a group of young masters and noble ladies from aristocratic families.

Yun Qingqing continued to walk forward without any expression, but Su Yurou suddenly took a few quick steps and said in surprise:

"Eh? Aren't these the Regent Princess and Master Ye? Why isn't the Princess with the Prince, but..."

At the end of her speech, she suddenly hesitated and shut up, but this made people immediately think that something was wrong, and everyone looked at the two of them with a deeper look.

Ye Zhishen frowned and said coldly:

"This is the first time the princess has come to this palace. What's wrong with me showing her the way? Don't you ladies also need someone to lead the way and familiarize yourself with the terrain?"

He said this calmly, and no one thought about it any further.

However, Su Yurou was not so easily willing to give up. She looked at the prince anxiously and said timidly:

"Of course I know that Master Ye behaves uprightly, but it is well known that some people always like to use some inferior means to get close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I am also afraid that Master Ye's kindness will be taken advantage of by others."

Everyone in the capital knew that Yun Qingqing had been pestering the prince before. After hearing this, the noble men and ladies immediately understood.

Ye Zhishen has always been on good terms with the prince, so why could Yun Qingqing deliberately get close to him?

"Prince, this woman is already married, but she is still using Brother Ye to get close to you! How shameless!"

The person who spoke was Chen Rong, the son of the Minister of Revenue. He glanced at Yun Qingqing sarcastically, then turned to Ye Zhishen and said:

"Brother Ye, don't be fooled by this woman's beauty trick. I don't need to explain why she approaches you, right?"

He thought that after reminding her in this way, even if Ye Zhishen was temporarily bewitched by beauty, he would eventually come to his senses.

But Ye Zhishen immediately exploded after hearing these words. He rushed forward and punched Chen Rong in the face, cursing:

"Shut your stinky mouth! How dare you insult the Regent Princess in public! I'm telling you, if you dare to say anything nonsense about the Princess again, I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Chen Rong staggered to his feet, covering his face in shock and anger. When he looked at Ye Zhishen's angry face, he swallowed the curse words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Ye Zhishen has been learning martial arts from Marquis Zhongyong since he was a child. His martial arts skills are definitely top-notch among all the young masters of aristocratic families. Chen Rong cannot beat him.

He didn't dare to say anything else, but Su Yurou said in surprise:

"Princess Regent, please stop Master Ye! He and Master Chen have been friends for many years. If it weren't for you, they wouldn't have suddenly turned against each other."

"You're talking nonsense!" Ye Zhishen's anger, which had just subsided a little, rose again, but he couldn't do anything to the woman. He was so angry that he pointed at Su Yurou and gritted his teeth.

Xiao Zirui frowned and said:

"Brother Ye, you're going too far. Are you going to attack Rou'er?"

Yun Qingqing suddenly sneered:

"Your Highness is also ridiculous. Isn't it your concubine who is overdoing it? She didn't even bother to greet an elder like me, but she fabricated stories about me as soon as we met, and kept gossiping and stirring up trouble!"

"Since you don't know how to discipline your concubine today, I, the imperial aunt, will do it for you!"

Before she finished her words, she had already stepped forward and slapped Su Yurou to the ground.

"You..." Xiao Zirui's face suddenly turned cold and he glared at him angrily.

But before he could get angry, he was interrupted by Su Yurou's crying:

"Brother Prince, this bitch actually hit me, please help me..."

Xiao Zirui looked at her with eyes wide open:

"What are you talking about! Shut up!"

Su Yurou realized that she had cursed Yun Qingqing in public. She panicked and immediately crawled over to grab the prince's trouser legs, crying:

"I, I didn't mean that...Brother Crown Prince, she's married to that cripple now, you don't still have feelings for her, do you? If you really love me, fight back for me!"

Everyone looked at her in shock, their expressions gradually becoming more meaningful.

It turns out that this is what the most talented woman in Beijing, who is gentle, considerate and thoughtful, really thinks!

"Enough!" Xiao Zirui's face turned blue with anger.

"No! No, my brother Crown Prince, please don't misunderstand me!" Su Yurou panicked and explained hastily, "...You can't do this to me! You clearly vowed to let me be the Crown Princess, if you didn't want to use the power of Tianfeng to deal with..."

Xiao Zirui's expression changed drastically and he slapped him hard!
