That Princess, But With a Temper?

Su Wenying transmigrated, only to find herself marrying a supposedly insane prince who was supposedly blind and physically weak.

Rumors claimed this prince had slaughtered over a dozen co...

Chapter 315 Will Not Be Recognized

Those whose homes were raided were the masterminds behind that incident years ago.

The Yin and Wu families, relying on their power, committed many evil deeds in the capital. Now that they have come to this end, it is truly gratifying.

Yuexiu put in a bit more effort and said, "It involves the defeat in the war back then, so the people are naturally resentful and dissatisfied."

Su Wenyuan felt uncomfortable, so she readjusted her posture and finally straddled the windowsill, letting out a long sigh of relief, thinking that this was still the most comfortable way.

Yuexiu hurriedly reminded her, "Your Highness, please be careful. Just take a quick look, or you might be recognized."

"I won't be recognized. Everyone's looking down. Who's looking at me?" Su Wenyuan grinned and turned around to see a man in the next private room also peeking out to watch the commotion.

Did he just hear... the Princess?

The man looked at her in fear, unsure whether to bow or back. Finally, he gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and said, "I didn't recognize you."

The ostrich-like explanation made Su Wenyuan's frozen smile instantly relax. She didn't care whether it was true or false, she would take it as true.

Then she tugged at her skirt, trying to make herself look more dignified.

But how dignified can one be when straddling the windowsill?

Helpless, Yuexiu could only hold onto her legs, afraid that she would fall.

The person has arrived.

Most of them were crying and shouting, claiming they were wronged, while some admitted their mistakes. Amidst the wailing and cursing of the common people, it was quite a scene.

Among them were several elderly ladies who had made things difficult for her back then.

The line was very long and seemed to stretch on forever, but the people were furious and their anger showed no signs of abating. No matter how many people came, they were given plenty of rotten vegetable leaves.

Su Wenyuan inevitably thought of the Yu family and asked, "Was the Yu family like this back then?"

The charge is treason, so it's probably not going to be any good.

Yuexiu forced a smile and said, "I was too young to know back then."

In the private room on the other side, a slightly older man emerged and calmly said, "No, the Yu family never bullies others by abusing their power, and Marquis Anle does not allow anyone in his household to do so, which is why they are deeply loved by the people."

"That day, soldiers cleared the road, so the imprisonment was much faster than theirs; it was practically a public parade. And most of the people didn't even realize what was happening until later, when they learned it was treason..."

Before the man finished speaking, there seemed to be sadness in his eyes, and Su Wenyuan secretly memorized his appearance.

As the long line passed, Su Wenyuan was about to climb down from the window when she heard a series of firecrackers going off in the distance.

The sound of firecrackers came from more than one place, from all directions.

The onlookers were very curious and searched for the source of the firecrackers.

Su Wenyuan asked in confusion, "Are you so happy? Are you going to set off firecrackers to celebrate?"

Just as I was wondering, some people below shouted: "The snack shops on East Street, as well as Xianlin Pavilion next to Qingyue Tower, are opening at the same time."

Another person added, "There's also the Golden Decoration Building and the Neighboring Dust Residence; these shops all opened suddenly, they weren't originally scheduled for today!"

Su Wenyuan asked in surprise, "Are they all opening today? Or are they temporary?"

The middle-aged man who had previously answered her question peeked out again, smiling, and said, "These shops are all owned by the same person. Today is an auspicious day, so they've all opened as long as they can."

Su Wenyuan added, "But if they open at the same time, people will have already dispersed."

The man replied, "One family can't possibly feed that many people. These shops all sell different things, so it's more fun to have them all open at the same time."

She had no talent for business and had no intention of learning, so she nodded as if she understood.

As long as the shopkeeper thinks it makes sense, whether it works or not, we'll know in time.

However, it's all owned by one person. This person must be quite wealthy. I wonder who they are.

"Prince Chen is here!" A shout from downstairs startled Su Wenyuan.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that the Prince Chen's carriage had stopped in front of the restaurant at some point.

Su Wenyuan wanted to go down, but it was a bit high, so she quickly asked Yuexiu to bring a chair over.

It's easy to climb up, but difficult to come down.

"It's too late!" Su Wenyuan moved to the side, trying her best to hide herself.

As Sheng Jingyu stepped down from the carriage, he looked up and saw Su Wenyuan looking for a place to hide.

He said helplessly, "Stop hiding, why don't you go up to the roof and look?"

Su Wenyuan chuckled awkwardly and patted the windowsill, saying, "That's enough. The roof is too high; I can't get up there."

Everyone gasped in surprise and turned their gazes toward Su Wenyuan.

Yuexiu brought over a chair, and Su Wenyuan stepped onto the chair to pull her other leg back.

Only after Sheng Jingyu saw that the person had safely returned to their room did he go upstairs to share the good news with her.

A group of excited people were left behind, having witnessed firsthand that Prince Chen's eyes had indeed recovered.

Although the news had been circulating for a while, there were always people who questioned it. This time, no one will question it anymore.

“If you want to see it, you can go directly to the prison,” Sheng Jingyu said.

Su Wenyuan laughed and said, "That's no fun. What are you doing here? Didn't I leave a message? Go back after you've read it."

"Several shops are opening today, don't you want to go and take a look?"

Su Wenyuan asked in surprise, "Your information network is too good! Wasn't it supposed to be a last-minute decision? How did you know?"

The firecrackers just went off here, and Sheng Jingyu has been out of the Prince Chen's residence for quite some time now.

Sheng Jingyu said, "The managers of these shops are all the same person. He came to the capital and first bought several large mansions, and then bought shops everywhere. How could I not know about such a big move?"

Sheng Jingyu was keeping an eye on things back then. This morning, as soon as the news from the court came out, these shops were busy preparing for their opening.

"These firecrackers went off well, making people happy, so everyone went to support them." Sheng Jingyu looked down from the window; the people on the street had mostly dispersed.

Su Wenyuan suddenly realized, "Since it's an opening ceremony, it can also be interpreted as a celebration of the Yin family, the Wu family, and others being imprisoned after their property was confiscated."

Sheng Jingyu nodded and said, "That's right. Father Emperor has agreed to reinvestigate the Marquis of Anle's treason."

"What?" Su Wenyuan was taken aback.

She seemed to have just heard something incredible.

Sheng Jingyu repeated, "Father has agreed to reinvestigate. Although the results will not implicate Father, the Yu family's innocence is definitely not in question."

Overjoyed, Su Wenyuan threw herself at Sheng Jingyu.

"Eh eh eh..."

"princess……"

The others in the room were startled and simultaneously warned Sheng Jingyu, fearing that her wound might reopen.

Su Wenyuan suddenly realized what was happening and took several steps back.

Sheng Jingyu's hand was hanging in mid-air; before he could even hug her, she ran away.

"..."

That was kind of awkward.

Su Wenyuan was overjoyed and dragged him around, visiting all the newly opened shops.

Each shop has a private room, which Sheng Jingyu had booked in advance to avoid being surrounded by onlookers.

At the dim sum shop, Su Wenyuan ordered a whole table of food, tasting each one in turn, and each flavor was amazing.

"Try it!" Su Wenyuan pinched a pastry between her fingers and held it to Sheng Jingyu's lips.
