Everyone was confused as to what had happened to Yun Ruoxue. Why did she suddenly scream when she saw the crowd? Especially now, her whole body was trembling, her hands could not help but hug her body tightly, and her steps were trembling as she retreated backwards, as if she was very afraid of coming into contact with the crowd. There was a dead yet pleading look in her eyes, and she muttered to herself, "No... No... Don't come over..."
Afterwards, everyone saw Yun Ruoxue suddenly turn around and run straight back into the ruined temple, as if trying to avoid the current situation!
The old nanny glanced at Yun Xuanzhi, exchanged glances with Yun Xuanzhi, and then followed Yun Ruoxue into the temple. She found Yun Ruoxue's shivering body under the incense table, and gently comforted Yun Ruoxue, who was in an extremely nervous state at the moment. She half-hugged her in her arms like a mother, and slowly took her to the door!
When Yun Xuanzhi saw Yun Ruoxue's condition just now, he understood what she had encountered. Now that she was very afraid of the crowd, he immediately waved his hand to dismiss Liu the guard and others who came to support her, and asked them to retreat to a place where Yun Ruoxue could not see them. He waited at the temple gate, waiting for the old nanny to bring Yun Ruoxue out!
However, while Yun Xuanzhi appeared calm, his heart was already raging with rage. When had his daughter ever suffered such an insult? Even though Yun Ruoxue had a mother like Su Qing, she was still the second daughter of the Yun Xiang Mansion. How could he possibly save his dignity by being bullied? If word got out, not only would Yun Ruoxue's place in Western Chu be completely wiped out, but he would also be humiliated, and he wouldn't even be able to serve in the court anymore!
Thinking of this, Yun Xuanzhi felt even more hatred in his heart, and he wished he could find the murderer and kill him immediately!
"Prime Minister!" At this time, Butler Zhao stepped forward. As smart as he was, how could he not see Yun Xuanzhi's expression of forbearance?
Any parent would not bear to see their daughter suffer such a thing, let alone Yun Xuanzhi, who is the right prime minister!
"What are you doing here?" Seeing that Butler Zhao came over without listening to his orders, Yun Xuanzhi's eyes filled with anger and cold arrows shot over instantly. The hint of hostility on his face made Butler Zhao's heart tighten, and he responded more cautiously!
"Prime Minister, it was the eldest lady who asked me to take the second lady to Prince Chen's Mansion!" Some things must be cleared up as soon as possible, especially after seeing Yun Xuanzhi's expression that showed he would never give up. Butler Zhao felt that the sooner he pushed the suspicion onto Yun Qianmeng, the safer he would be!
But after hearing this, Yun Xuanzhi's facial expression and eyes didn't change at all. Instead, he looked at Butler Zhao with some suspicion and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Are you saying that Meng'er had someone destroy Xue'er?"
"This... I dare not!" Little did he know that Yun Xuanzhi's favoritism towards Yun Ruoxue and protection of Yun Qianmeng were beyond the expectations of Butler Zhao!
It was clear that Yun Xuanzhi and the Su family had severed all ties, so why was he still so kind to Su Qingsheng's daughter? It was clear that Yun Xuanzhi only had a relationship of use for Yun Qianmeng, so why was he still protecting her like this!
This made Butler Zhao panic for a moment, but then he remembered that Yun Xuanzhi had not caught the person who violated Yun Ruoxue, and that most people would choose to endure such a big thing instead of publicizing it. This made Zhao De's heart, which had been a little confused for a moment, calm down quickly, and then he quietly retreated to the side of Guard Liu and stopped talking!
However, his words still made Yun Xuanzhi's heart waver for a moment. After all, it was a fact that the two daughters had a bad relationship. In addition, if it was said that Yun Qianmeng did this, it would not be hard to believe!
However, Yun Qianmeng is now married. With Chu Feiyang's power and means, it would be easier for him to get rid of Yun Ruoxue quietly than to kill an ant. Why bother to risk suspicion and go to such trouble to put on such a show? Therefore, Yun Xuanzhi believed in Yun Qianmeng's innocence at this moment. Instead, he was puzzled by the butler Zhao who suddenly appeared beside him to remind him of this matter. When did it become the turn of a butler to meddle in the family affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Thinking of this, a cold light suddenly shot out from Yun Xuanzhi's eyes and pierced straight towards Zhao De in the distance, making Butler Zhao's heart suddenly tighten. He lowered his head and dared not say anything more!
"My Lord, I will help the Second Young Lady get on the carriage!" At this time, Yun Ruoxue was helped out again. This time, there was no man other than Yun Xuanzhi. Yun Ruoxue's emotions seemed a little calmer in comparison. However, when facing Yun Xuanzhi, her eyes were still full of fear and hatred. She subconsciously wanted to escape from Yun Xuanzhi, but the hatred in her eyes made her want to kill the person in front of her!
Seeing his good daughter become like this, it would be a lie to say that he didn't feel heartbroken. After all, Yun Ruoxue was raised in the palm of Yun Xuanzhi's hand since she was a child. At first, he even thought that she would marry better than Yun Qianmeng. Who knew that everything would be turned upside down? Yun Ruoxue might have to live in the prime minister's mansion for the rest of her life!
Thinking of this, Yun Xuanzhi's murderous intent suddenly surged in his heart. Destroying his daughter was like destroying his hope. He would definitely find the murderer and tear him into pieces!
Everyone watched Yun Ruoxue get into the carriage, then they carefully approached and slowly walked towards the Prime Minister's residence!
At this moment, Yun Ruoxue seemed to only recognize the nanny beside her. Apart from her company, if anyone approached her, she would hold her head and scream, then tremble and shrink into the corner! Only this gentle nanny who treated her well received her inner recognition. Even after she sat in the carriage, she still held the nanny's arm tightly, and her expression was so nervous that she didn't let the nanny leave her side for even a step!
The convoy was moving very slowly, as if they were afraid of disturbing the frightened Second Young Lady. It took an hour before they arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion!
Everyone stepped aside again, allowing Yun Ruoxue to get off the carriage without worry. Then they saw the sedan chair that had been prepared long ago carrying Yun Ruoxue into the Prime Minister's residence!
"My lord, I have asked several experienced maids to prepare, and they will give the second young lady a careful check-up in a while!" Liu Hanyu, who was waiting at the door, appeared at the right time and succinctly explained everything she had arranged!
Yun Xuanzhi nodded with a gloomy expression, then strode into the gate of Yun Xiang Mansion with anger all over his body, while Guard Liu and Butler Zhao carefully followed him to the study!
"Tell me, what happened? Why did Xue'er appear in such a filthy place? Zhao De, how did you do things? Even when you sent Xue'er to Prince Chen's Mansion, you didn't send anyone to protect her!" As soon as he stepped into the door of the study, he saw Yun Xuanzhi's hidden anger suddenly burst out. He pointed at Guard Liu and Butler Zhao and started to scold them loudly!
Guard Liu, aware of his own negligence in this matter, knelt down in shame, refusing to defend himself. Although he normally disliked Yun Ruoxue's behavior, she was, after all, the second daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now that something like this had happened, her reputation was ruined! For a woman, what could be more terrifying than losing her virginity? Therefore, even when Yun Xuanzhi dragged her away and caned her, Guard Liu had no complaints!
Zhao De already had something to hide, and now seeing Yun Xuanzhi's vow to find the murderer, he was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his palms. He immediately began to shirk responsibility, "Prime Minister, please calm down. This is all the servants' fault. They were lazy. They only carried the Second Young Lady to the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion, but returned without seeing her enter! I will punish them in a moment! Please calm down, Prime Minister!"
"Calm down? How can you expect me to calm down? With such a big thing happening, where can I put my face? How can I gain a foothold in the court in Kyoto in the future? Zhao De, you are also an old man in this prime minister's mansion. You have always been careful in doing things. How come such a mistake happened this time? If your daughter encountered such a thing, would you calm down?" As he spoke, Yun Xuanzhi felt that the anger in his heart became stronger. He picked up the fine Duan inkstone on the desk and smashed it at the feet of Butler Zhao. Butler Zhao was so scared that he immediately raised his arm carefully and wiped the sweat beads on his head with trembling hands!
"Please give me a chance to redeem myself, Your Majesty. I will definitely find the murderer!" At this moment, Guard Liu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke!
Although he was taciturn, he was not stupid. Especially when Yun Xuanzhi was talking with Butler Zhao just now, he found that Zhao De, who had always been diligent and calm in his work, seemed very flustered today. He couldn't help but become suspicious, so he immediately asked Yun Xuanzhi for help!
Seeing the solemn expression on Guard Liu's face, Yun Xuanzhi nodded slightly. At this moment, he saw another steward who had been entertaining guests in the front yard walk in. Standing outside the study, he said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Lord Qian, the Prefect of Jingzhao, is waiting for you in the reception room!"
"Master Qian? Why is he here again?" Although his mind was in a mess, Yun Xuanzhi still asked with all his energy!
"I don't know!" But before meeting Yun Xuanzhi, how could Lord Qian tell a steward the purpose of his visit?
"Got it, you leave first!" Yun Xuanzhi's voice came from the study, and the steward immediately left the academy. At this time, Yun Xuanzhi waved his hand and asked Guard Liu to go down and secretly investigate Yun Ruoxue's affairs, while he took Butler Zhao to the reception room!
Before he even stepped into the reception room, he saw Lord Qian, the Jingzhao Yin, had already stood up and walked in front of Yun Xuanzhi. After both sides greeted each other, Yun Xuanzhi found that Lord Qian's eyes swept around behind him!
"I wonder if Lord Qian has anything else to say? Has the case of my second brother been decided?" Seeing that Jingzhao Yin came to visit for the second time today, Yun Xuanzhi was curious and asked!
At this time, Yun Xuanzhi had already put away his anger and appeared calm and composed, making it impossible for people to realize that such a big thing had just happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion!
However, Lord Qian's gaze was fixed on a certain point. He then bowed to Yun Xuanzhi and said, "I am having someone prepare Yun Xuanmo's case, but I am here now because I have other matters to attend to! Please ask your steward Zhao to come in!"
Seeing the serious expression on Jingzhao Yin's face, as if he were judging a case, Yun Xuanzhi knew that Zhao De must have committed something. His face suddenly lost its luster and his expression instantly became gloomy. He coldly called to Butler Zhao who was waiting outside the door, "Butler Zhao, come in!"
How could Zhao De have expected that the Jingzhao Yin came in to find him at this moment? He was already nervous, and kept wondering in his mind whether Yun Xuanzhi had discovered that he was the one who did it and planned to let the Jingzhao Yin come to interrogate him!
He was not concentrating for a moment and accidentally tripped over the threshold when entering the room. He almost fell to the ground. He stumbled a few steps before he steady himself. This was a disgrace to Yun Xuanzhi, and it also made Yun Xuanzhi more suspicious. He didn't understand why Zhao De was so reckless today. He was usually a thoughtful person, but today he made mistakes again and again, as if he was afraid of something!
"I wonder what important matter you want me to come for, sir!" Zhao De was full of uneasiness at this moment. He didn't even dare to look directly into Sir Qian's eyes. He just kept lowering his head and asked in a muffled voice!
"Butler Zhao, look at this jade pendant. It belongs to Young Master Zhao!" Unexpectedly, Lord Qian took out a jade pendant that a man wore around his waist and placed it in front of him, asking him to identify it!
Zhao De took a look and knew that this was the jade pendant worn by his eldest son. He nodded and said, "It is indeed my son's! But I don't know why it is in your hand?"
While asking questions, Zhao De kept speculating in his heart, could it be that his useless son had gotten into trouble again? But this time, the Jingzhao Yin was alarmed, so it must be a big deal!
Thinking of this, Zhao De was shocked and looked even more nervous!
Yun Xuanzhi, who was standing aside, was staring at the expression of Butler Zhao, and the suspicion in his eyes became more and more serious!
"Since it belongs to Young Master Zhao, please ask Steward Zhao to let me go to Jingzhao Prefecture to claim Young Master Zhao! At noon today, Young Master Zhao had an argument with someone in a brothel and accidentally fell from the third floor and died on the spot!" After handing the jade pendant to Zhao De, Lord Qian spoke calmly!
But for Zhao De, it was a bolt from the blue. The jade pendant in his hand suddenly slipped onto the carpet. His eyes were full of disbelief. His mind was blank. He suddenly grabbed Master Qian's arm and asked again, "Master, are you mistaken? That can't be my son. My son is at home right now..."
But in the end, even Zhao De himself found it hard to believe that his eldest son would stay at home obediently at this time!
However, he never expected that his son would die so unclearly and suddenly. How could he be gone just like that?
"Young Master Zhao accidentally fell from the third floor during a fight with someone over a brothel girl!" Seeing that Zhao De was unable to accept the pain of losing his son for a while, Lord Qian began to explain again!
"I don't know who could have been so cruel to my son. Please tell me clearly, sir!" Zhao De's heart was filled with tears as he was suffering from the pain of losing his son. Although his eldest son was an uneducated one, he was his son after all. Now he died in unclear circumstances. He must seek justice for his son!
After saying this, Zhao De knelt down on both knees in front of Yun Xuanzhi, kowtowed three times, and said with a sad face, "Prime Minister, I have devoted all these years to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now my son's death is really strange. I hope that you can make a decision for me!"
As he said that, Zhao De burst into tears!
Yun Xuanzhi frowned slightly, feeling quite a bit of resentment towards Zhao De. He could only blame Zhao De for not being able to distinguish the important from the unimportant. He knew clearly that a big thing had happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but now he was asking him to make the decision for his good-for-nothing son in front of the Jingzhao Yin. It was really funny!
However, in front of Lord Qian, Yun Xuanzhi still frowned and asked, "Lord Qian, do you know who is so bold as to commit a crime in public?"
Seeing Yun Xuanzhi speak, Lord Qian's expression was tinged with embarrassment. After pondering for a while, he slowly said, "It's Yuan Qingzhou, the young master of the Hanguo Mansion!"
If Yuan Qingzhou is a philanderer, there's no brothel he hasn't visited, and no woman of rare beauty he hasn't touched! Furthermore, he's wealthy and comes from a prestigious family, with the backing of Prince Chen's Mansion and the Duke of Han's Mansion. This gives him even more confidence, and he's a well-known bully in Kyoto!
Zhao De's son was also a lecher who loved women. He loved to go to brothels on weekdays. In addition, his father was the steward of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, so he took advantage of his father's power and thought that he was a superior master. He only knew how to seek pleasure from prostitutes all day long, and it was common for him to have prostitutes with him. However, such a situation had never happened before!
Thinking that his son had become a corpse, Zhao De was filled with grief and anger, and wished he could find the murderer and kill him!
But suddenly he learned from Mr. Qian that the other party was Yuan Qingzhou, who was of greater importance. For a moment, Zhao De's face turned pale and his expression became uncertain. He stared at Yun Xuanzhi, hoping that he could make the decision for him!
Yun Xuanzhi, upon hearing Yuan Qingzhou's name, frowned in embarrassment. He glared at Zhao De with anger in his eyes, feeling a bit resentful that Zhao De would find trouble for him. He didn't take good care of his own son, and now he was trying to implicate the Yun Xiang Mansion. For a moment, Yun Xuanzhi was slightly angry, and the matter of Yun Ruoxue made him even more unhappy. He then said, "First, go with Lord Qian to Jingzhao Mansion to identify the body. We can discuss the matter later after you come back!"
This matter is neither big nor small. If you look at it in a small way, it is just a murder caused by jealousy between clients over a brothel girl. But if you look at it in a big way, it is a fight between two factions in the court!
Therefore, just in case, Lord Qian personally went to Prime Minister Yun's residence to find out Yun Xuanzhi's attitude!
But at this moment, Yun Xuanzhi's face was so calm that no one could tell his emotions, which made Lord Qian frown secretly, but he could only follow Yun Xuanzhi's words and lead Butler Zhao away first!
After Lord Qian and his lover left, Yun Xuanzhi's expression suddenly turned cold, but he was still weighing the matter in his mind, so he could only get up and walk towards Qiluo Garden!
Along the way, Yun Xuanzhi was thinking about how to start the conversation, and unknowingly arrived at Qiluo Garden. At this time, Yun Qianmeng had just woken up from a nap and was forced by Chu Feiyang to drink the ginseng soup in his hand. Then she saw Yun Xuanzhi walking in with a lot on his mind!
Taking the opportunity to put down the ginseng soup in her hand, Yun Qianmeng stood up and asked, "Why is father here?"
However, Chu Feiyang secretly glared at Yun Qianmeng, then pulled her to sit down, pushed the ginseng soup that she had only taken a few sips of in front of Yun Qianmeng again, and hinted to her with his eyes to drink it obediently!
Yun Xuanzhi looked at his eldest daughter's life after marriage, and thought about his useless second daughter. He felt a little melancholy in his heart for a moment. If he hadn't spoiled Ruoxue so much, perhaps something like this would not have happened today!
Turning his gaze from Yun Qianmeng to Chu Feiyang, Yun Xuanzhi told him what had just happened with Zhao De, and then observed Chu Feiyang's expression!
"How does Prime Minister Yun hope to resolve this matter? As far as I know, the eldest son of Housekeeper Zhao is an uneducated person. He usually gambles and visits brothels. If Prime Minister Yun stands up for such a person, isn't he afraid of being ridiculed by the people in Kyoto? They will even laugh at Prime Minister Yun for not managing the family properly. The servant's son made such a mistake, and the master actually stepped in to protect him! It also indirectly implicated Meng'er! Of course, if Prime Minister Yun cares about the friendship between master and servant, he can come forward for him. However, Meng'er may not be able to come to Prime Minister Yun's Mansion in the future, lest her reputation be affected!" Chu Feiyang's words were very clear. Either he should consider the friendship between master and servant and give up his daughter, or he should pretend not to know. Which is more important? The power involved here is so important that Yun Xuanzhi knows what to do without thinking too much!
"I just heard that my second sister is not feeling well. I wonder what happened? I wonder if it would be convenient for me to visit her!" Yun Qianmeng pushed the ginseng soup in front of Chu Feiyang without leaving a trace, picked up a handkerchief to wipe the corner of her mouth, and then asked with a faint smile, which successfully diverted Yun Xuanzhi's attention!
Hearing Yun Qianmeng mention Yun Ruoxue, Yun Xuanzhi's heart was in a mess. The anxiety of a father was immediately revealed on his face. Under his furrowed brows were hidden rage in his eyes. However, in front of Chu Feiyang, he still knew how to restrain himself. In addition, he did not want Chu Feiyang to know about Yun Ruoxue, so he simply said, "Children's temper is common! You can have lunch now, don't go hungry!"
Hearing this, Yun Qianmeng nodded slightly, but saw Guard Liu following Yun Xuanzhi to the door of the side hall!
However, Yun Xuanzhi did not let him in. Instead, he walked out himself and listened to Guard Liu's report outside the door. Then he took a belt from Guard Liu's hand and looked at it. Then he waved his hand and asked Guard Liu to leave first!
When Yun Xuanzhi returned to the side hall, he saw Yun Qianmeng looking at him with a puzzled expression. Being stared at by those clear eyes, Yun Xuanzhi was slightly stunned. His face turned pale, but he still forced a smile and said softly, "Daddy has something important to attend to. You two should just rest well in Qiluo Garden!"
As he was about to turn around and leave, Chu Feiyang stood up at this moment and said with a faint smile, "We have been bothering you for half a day. Now that Prime Minister Yun has something to do, Meng'er and I should go back home!"
After saying that, Chu Feiyang ordered Xi Lin outside to prepare the carriage. Yun Xuanzhi was in no mood to keep them at this time, so he nodded and asked another steward to send Yun Qianmeng and Chu Feiyang out of the Prime Minister's Mansion!
"Are we going back to Prime Minister Chu's residence?" Seeing that the road was different from the one they came from, and remembering Chu Feiyang's words before, Yun Qianmeng lowered the curtain and asked lightly!
"Meng'er, aren't you curious about what will happen next?" Chu Feiyang pulled her to sit next to him. Seeing that her hands were a little cold because of the wind just now, she tightly wrapped them in his palms to keep them warm!
Hearing his question, Yun Qianmeng shook her head and said, "Everything is just karma and reincarnation!"
If Su Qing had not harbored evil intentions to ruin his reputation, how could he have planted the evil seed of Zhao De? Now that the seed has sprouted and blossomed, and now that he has gained strength, he has begun to retaliate against those who have harmed him before. But Su Qing is no longer here, so he can only vent his hatred on Yun Ruoxue!
And if Yun Ruoxue had not coveted the glory, wealth and noble status of a concubine, how could she have allowed Zhao De to take advantage of her?
"But I have never understood why Ruoxue and Prince Chen got married on that day? Was it possible that people around Prince Chen were replaced more than once?" Yun Qianmeng clearly remembered that at that time, she only delivered Prince Chen's intentions and the plan he had in mind to Xi Lin through the cook!
Afterwards, Xi Lin set the fire according to her arrangement and took the opportunity to rescue herself from the prison!
In the following days, he stayed in the Prince of Chu's Mansion and did not appear in the eyes of others!
However, Prince Chen brought the unconscious Yun Qianmeng in the prison into Prince Chen's mansion that night. If Yun Qianmeng was Yun Ruoxue in disguise at that time, how could Prince Chen not notice the subtle differences between the two?
Yun Ruoxue wasn't so foolish as to think that covering her head with a veil would protect her from harm! Perhaps she didn't understand the situation at the time.
Seeing Yun Qianmeng finally ask this question, Chu Feiyang immediately curled his lips into a smile, then leaned close to her cheek and whispered, "Kiss me before I tell you the answer!"
Looking at the handsome face that suddenly approached, and seeing Chu Feiyang's cheating expression, Yun Qianmeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She felt that Chu Feiyang was really smart and would never let herself suffer any loss at any time!
Yun Qianmeng's stubbornness could not help but surge up. Seeing Chu Feiyang's smug look, Yun Qianmeng turned away and said sullenly, "I think about it myself, I just don't believe it..."
But before she could finish her words, her body suddenly lost its center of gravity and fell straight into Chu Feiyang's arms. Her red lips were immediately held by those gentle thin lips, and she was kissed deeply without resistance. With a hint of impatient longing, Chu Feiyang tossed and turned on those plump and tender red lips, savoring them carefully, as if treating them as the most delicious delicacy, and would not stop until he swallowed the last bite...
Yun Qianmeng felt furious. Why did Chu Feiyang always take the dominant position in such matters? She opened her eyes wide to prevent herself from falling into the infatuation he brought her. However, the faint scent of him lingered under her nose, making her feel dazzled unconsciously, and her eyes gradually half-closed!
At this time, Chu Feiyang slowly opened his eyes, with a hint of doting in his smiling eyes. He watched Yun Qianmeng gradually soften in his arms, and his heart was filled with indescribable joy!
He wanted to let her go, but her eyes were confusing and a little teasing at this time, which made Chu Feiyang's heart move. He lowered his head again and kissed her half-open red lips fiercely until he heard Yun Qianmeng's low moans in his ears, and then he let her go reluctantly!
"Damn it!" But the moment he let go of Yun Qianmeng, he heard Yun Qianmeng staring at him with wide eyes, and her whole fair and smooth face was already covered with blush!
"My lady, are you blaming me for letting you go?" Although Chu Feiyang knew that Yun Qianmeng did not mean that, he deliberately misinterpreted the meaning of Yun Qianmeng's words and wanted to continue what he was doing!
A soft little hand blocked Chu Feiyang's thin lips at this moment. Yun Qianmeng calmed down and said with a faint smile in her eyes, "Your Majesty is a man above everyone else, how could you go back on your word? Since I have met your request, please solve the mystery for me!"
Since they had already kissed each other, Yun Qianmeng didn't waste any opportunity to ask for the answer!
Chu Feiyang, on the other hand, carefully sniffed the sweet fragrance on her hand, then pursed his lips and kissed her delicate palm. He then took Yun Qianmeng's small hand and slowly spoke, "Marching and fighting doesn't just rely on brute force and direct confrontation! Sometimes, when facing some special enemies, special methods must be used! I have such an unknown guard in my hands. They will do anything, let alone such a simple task as imitating people's words and actions!"
Listening to Chu Feiyang's explanation, Yun Qianmeng was shocked. Such an extremely obscure matter, if it was not known to an extremely close person, even Emperor Yugan would not know it. But Chu Feiyang told her without hesitation. For a moment, she felt a little sweet in her heart, but she did not feel elated!
Although Chu Feiyang only gave a rough idea, she already had an idea in her heart. Throughout history, which dynasty did not have an army hidden in the deepest part? They were unknown to the public, but they played the greatest role!
"So, the one who was rescued by Prince Chen and brought back to Prince Chen's Mansion was me in disguise! And after getting on the bridal sedan, I had already been replaced by Yun Ruoxue! In addition, Yun Ruoxue herself is Su Yuan's niece. Even if she is not in prison, Su Yuan will probably not care too much! Even if Prime Minister Yun was sentenced to beheading at that time, Su Yuan could find someone from the death row to replace Yun Ruoxue, right?" She understood it immediately, but she had to say that Chu Feiyang's plan was more detailed than hers. Although it was improved on the basis of her own, it made this plan more perfect!
"But you were thousands of miles away at the time, how did you know about this?" Because time was tight, Yun Qianmeng contacted Xi Lin alone and did not write to Chu Feiyang!
Seeing Yun Qianmeng's determination to get to the bottom of things, Chu Feiyang raised his hand and pinched the tip of her delicate nose, saying with a smile, "Don't forget, the Prince of Fuguo's Mansion treats you like a precious jewel in their crown! Although Old Lady Gu ran into a wall with the Queen Mother, she sent your cousin to tell me at full speed! Fortunately, it was him. If Xi Lin had sent someone out, I'm afraid they would have been killed by Prince Chen on the way!"
Now, all the mysteries in her heart were finally solved. Looking at Chu Feiyang again, Yun Qianmeng felt that this person was truly unfathomable. He could control everything from thousands of miles away. He was truly a terrifying opponent!
Chu Feiyang looked at her lowered eyes with a thoughtful look in them, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly following her movements. He let his little wife fall into deep thought, while he admired her calm and wise side!
The carriage soon arrived at Prime Minister Chu's residence. Butler Hong had already received the news and was waiting at the gate with everyone in Prime Minister Chu's residence!
Seeing Chu Feiyang leading Yun Qianmeng out of the carriage and carefully helping her get off, everyone felt even more respect for Yun Qianmeng and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Lord Prime Minister, and Madam!"
But Chu Feiyang did not speak, he just turned his gaze to Yun Qianmeng and looked at her with a smile!
Yun Qianmeng, with a dignified look in her eyes and a faint smile on her lips, said calmly, "Everyone, get up!"
"Thank you, Madam!" Hearing Yun Qianmeng's clear yet steady voice, everyone responded immediately and stood up in unison!
Yun Qianmeng had already met Butler Hong, who was leading the group. Butler Hong was extremely respectful of the lady his master had painstakingly married. He smiled as he stepped forward and reported, "Prime Minister, Madam, the bridal chamber is ready! I've compiled a list of the gifts sent by various mansions in recent days. They're currently being stored in the warehouse. I'll send the list to Madam for review shortly!"
Yun Qianmeng had already witnessed Butler Hong's ability to get things done when he helped her get her dowry back, so she was very confident in what he had done and said with a smile, "Thank you, Butler Hong!"
"What are you talking about, Madam!" Butler Hong was not a talkative person, nor was he good at flattery like Zhao De. He just replied to Yun Qianmeng humbly and politely, then turned sideways to make way for Chu Feiyang and Yun Qianmeng!
This was Yun Qianmeng's first time entering the Chu Xiang Mansion. Compared with the ancient Chu Palace, the Chu Xiang Mansion seemed much younger, but it also had an ancient style. The pavilions and towers seemed simple, but they were rare in their refinement. The heritage contained in them was worth savoring again and again!
When Butler Hong and the others saw Chu Feiyang personally leading Yun Qianmeng to visit the Prime Minister's Mansion, they only left two maids to serve, and dismissed all the others!
Seeing that Yun Qianmeng seemed to be very appreciative of his Chu Xiang Mansion, Chu Feiyang felt happy for a moment, so he took her hand and planned to walk to another courtyard. "Come on, I'll take you to see..."
"Chu Feiyang, you actually didn't bring Meng'er back to the palace!" But at this time, Chu Nanshan's resentful roar came from a long distance!
Hearing this, Chu Feiyang immediately pulled Yun Qianmeng to hide behind him, and Chu Nanshan suddenly appeared in front of them. His bright eyes were now filled with anger. Looking at the person who was hidden tightly by Chu Feiyang, he even wanted to use his eyes to penetrate Chu Feiyang's body!
"What do you mean? Are you going to kick me away after you're done using me?" Dissatisfied, full of dissatisfaction in his heart, eyes, and body! Chu Nanshan finally met a girl he liked, but Chu Feiyang had to come out and mess things up. What kind of grandson is this? He's simply an enemy!
"Grandpa, doesn't you want to have a great-grandson? When has grandpa ever had any taboos in the Prince of Chu's Mansion? He barged into our new house so openly that it was very embarrassing for us, so we decided to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion! Who knows, maybe in a few days, grandpa will be able to have a great-grandson!" Chu Feiyang replied without blushing or beating his heart. Facing the King of Chu's fierce questioning, his face was calm without a ripple!
"I want a great-grandson, but...but..." He was speechless for a moment. If he had known, he would not have expressed his wish at that time. Now he was interrupted by Chu Feiyang. The anger in King Chu's eyes suddenly turned into resentment. He looked pitifully at the person standing behind Chu Feiyang, hoping to get Yun Qianmeng's comfort!
"Meng'er, you can't bear to chase Grandpa away, right?" If hard tactics don't work, try soft tactics. If Chu Feiyang can't conquer her, isn't there Yun Qianmeng who has the final say? As long as she nods, even if Chu Feiyang is unwilling, she can move in!
Yun Qianmeng was about to speak when she felt a slight pain in her hand. She looked down and saw that Chu Feiyang was holding her hand with a little force, as if reminding her not to speak easily. She sighed in her heart and decided not to get involved. After all, even if she didn't agree, Prince Chu could still stay!
"I haven't eaten the food cooked by Meng'er for a long time. I miss it so much!" The voice continued to be sad, even with a hint of crying. The King of Chu covered his heart with one hand and held the column on the corridor with the other hand. He slowly sat down on the bench in the corridor with a sad face, as if he had been abandoned!
"It's really pitiful to be alone in the palace. Nothing you eat tastes good! It's a pity that your grandmother passed away early, leaving me, an old man, despised everywhere, and unable to even beg for food!" The other party remained indifferent. Chu Nanshan continued to squeeze the tears from his eyes, raised his head and leaned against the column, his eyes full of resentment and miserable expression!
Alas, Yun Qianmeng sighed heavily in her heart!
Grandpa has already said so. If she doesn't agree, people will probably think she is a heartless and ungrateful granddaughter-in-law!
After all, my grandfather had put in a lot of effort to avoid King Chen's pursuit, so I should at least show some appreciation!
Without Chu Feiyang's consent, the delicate little face popped out from behind him. Yun Qianmeng looked at King Chu, who was still talking to himself, with a smile in her eyes and blinked at him!
After receiving the signal, Chu Nanshan immediately perked up. His previous sadness was immediately replaced by joy. Yun Qianmeng's beautiful voice rang in his ears, "Then Meng'er will make dinner for Grandpa tonight. Please don't be disgusted!"
Hearing this, Chu Nanshan's face was filled with joy. He hooked his eyes at Chu Feiyang with a look of pride and provocation, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was already overflowing!
After she finished speaking, Yun Qianmeng immediately felt two extremely cold gazes shooting down from above. She raised her eyes slightly and saw Chu Feiyang staring at her, as if blaming her for acting on her own!
Yun Qianmeng smiled at him flatteringly and told him with her lips that it was just a dinner and she did not agree to any other requests from her grandfather.
