The Young Lady is Targeted by the General

A bidirectional uncovering of royal secrets.

Shangguan Fuyyao, a merchant's daughter, loved martial arts, freedom, and hated evil from a young age, starkly different from the typical nobl...

Give me the steps and go down

Give me the steps and go down

After leaving the kitchen, Fuyao took the bowl of medicine and went to the study. She knocked on the door gently, and Feng Chenyu's voice came from the room.

"Enter."

She pushed the door open and walked in.

Seeing Fuyao coming in, Feng Chenyu said softly,

"Not asleep yet."

"I made a bowl of medicine that can dispel blood stasis and reduce heat, which will help your injury."

She walked towards the bed.

Feng Chenyu put down the book in his hand,

"Leave it there, and let the horse monster come and feed me later."

Fuyao smiled helplessly,

"Let me do it. It won't be good if it gets cold."

Then he sat down beside the bed, scooped a spoonful of medicine and handed it to Feng Chenyu's lips.

He was stunned at first, then he opened his mouth and drank it obediently.

"His Majesty has always held you in high esteem. What did you do to anger him?"

Fuyao asked questions while feeding the medicine.

Feng Chenyu swallowed a mouthful of medicine and said disdainfully,

"I just beat the prince."

"What?"

Fuyao was surprised.

“Why did you hit him?

Is it because of me?"

Feng Chenyu turned his face away and didn't look at her.

"I just don't like him!"

"Feng Chenyu, could it be that you were the one who beat the Duke last time?"

She suddenly remembered what happened last time. In this huge Yu'an City, he was probably the only one who dared to do such a thing.

"I'm tired, please go out."

The guy lowered his head and lay on the bed.

Looking at his arrogant look, Fuyao felt both angry and amused.

Fuyao and the others went to the store early in the morning because they were worried that Zhang Buren would cause trouble while no one was around.

After arriving at the store and seeing that everything was fine, Fuyao took Qiu'er to Zhang Buren's house, while Xianning and Zhuo Yunmeng took care of the store together.

When she reached the front door, Qiu'er walked forward and pushed it gently, and it opened. She entered the yard and saw that the bedroom door was half closed, so she walked in.

I saw Zhang Buren lying on the bed, snoring loudly.

It seems that he drank too much last night and is still not sober.

"Zhang Buren is up."

Fuyao stepped forward and shouted.

It’s just that the other person was sleeping so soundly that he didn’t hear it.

Seeing this, Fuyao picked up the pillow on the bedside and threw it at his face.

"what?

who? "

Zhang Buren, who was sleeping soundly, woke up from his dream and sat up.

Fuyao chuckled.

"He's awake now."

Zhang Buren rubbed his eyes and finally saw who was coming.

"What do you want?"

"This is a divorce agreement. As long as you sign it, Madam Zhuo and Xi'er will have nothing to do with you from now on!"

She threw the divorce papers on the table.

Hearing this, Zhang Buren stood up and walked to the table, raising his voice.

"You want a divorce? No way."

He would not divorce easily, because Zhuo Yunmeng was his God of Wealth. Who would he rely on if he divorced her?

Then he rolled his eyes again,

“You look well dressed, so it’s not bad actually.

As long as you are willing to give me some money, I will sign immediately."

"You want money?

Absolutely not.”

Fuyao glared at him sideways.

"Why do you still want to hit me?"

Seeing Fuyao clenching his fist, Zhang Buren hurriedly said.

Fuyao then smiled slightly,

"What's wrong with beating you? My husband even dares to beat the prince, who do you think you are?"

She turned around and picked up the divorce papers, looking back with a sullen face.

"Just wait for the divorce!

Also, if you dare to harass them in the store again, I don’t mind beating you up.”

He turned around and left with Qiu'er.

After returning to the General's Mansion, Fuyao immediately drafted a divorce lawsuit, which specifically mentioned that Zhang Buren was addicted to gambling, sold his real estate, and beat his wife and children when drunk.

Just as she was checking whether there was anything missing from the lawsuit, the bedroom door opened and Feng Chenyu walked in.

"What are you looking at?"

I saw her lowering her head and looking carefully at the manuscript in her hand.

As he spoke, Feng Chenyu had already arrived in front of her.

"Divorce proceedings?"

As soon as he saw those big words, he couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Um."

Fuyao responded softly.

"Shangguan Fuyao, do you really want to divorce me?"

Feng Chenyu never expected that she would file a lawsuit because he didn't want to divorce.

Fuyao looked up helplessly,

"Take a closer look."

Then he handed him the manuscript.

After reading the manuscript, Feng Chenyu lowered his head and touched his nose awkwardly.

"Who the hell is this man? How could he treat his wife and children like this?"

"Who says it isn't true? I really want to beat him up every time I see him."

Fuyao gritted her teeth.

In fact, when Zhang Buren went to the store to make a scene, Feng Chenyu had already received the news and specially sent someone to investigate the reason, so he knew a little about Zhuo Yunmeng's affairs.

But he didn't expect that his wife was already helping someone prepare divorce documents.

But he knew that it would be difficult for the government to respond to this kind of unilateral litigation and divorce in a short time.

So he asked,

"Can I help you?"

Fu Yao also understood Feng Chenyu's concerns. She had planned to ask Shao Hansu for help after writing the lawsuit, because the sooner the matter was resolved, the better.

"It would be best if you could help."

She did it reluctantly.

Feng Chenyu lowered his head and chuckled, then put the lawsuit away and held it in his hand.

"Wait for good news."

"Does your injury still hurt?"

Fuyao suddenly remembered.

Feng Chenyu turned his head.

"It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about."

New Year's Day is approaching, and Yu'an City is decorated with lights and is full of joy.

After seeing off a few customers in the shop, Fuyao took Xianning and said they would go to the garment store to take a look.

"How do you like this dress, sister?"

Fuyao pointed to a light yellow short jacket paired with a white skirt.

"Not bad, quite elegant."

Xian Ning looked over.

"Go ahead and try it. I'll give you a New Year's gift."

Fuyao said happily.

Xian Ning couldn't refuse, so she went to try on the clothes.

After a while, she came out wearing a dress. She was slender and had a gentle and lovely appearance. The dress made her look fresh and refined.

"Wow, sister looks like a fairy descending to earth."

Fuyao shouted happily,

"If I were a man, I would fall at your feet."

Xian Ning blushed a little,

"Okay, stop teasing me."

Then Fuyao asked someone to pack up the clothes.

While the two were talking, Feng Chenyu, Princess Xiao and a maid walked in.

"Sister Fuyao."

Princess Xiao shouted.

Fuyao looked up with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Meet the princess."

She didn't expect that Feng Chenyu was unwilling to stay at home to recuperate and actually came to accompany the princess.

"Who is this?"

Princess Xiao looked at Xian Ning who was beside Fu Yao.

Fuyao quickly replied,

"This is my sister, Xian Ning."

"Oh, hello, Madam Xian Ning."

Princess Xiao asked politely.

Xian Ning hurriedly returned the gift.

Feng Chenyu stood there bored. He didn't expect to meet Fuyao and the others here.

Fuyao turned to look at Feng Chenyu. Why don’t you say hello?

"I just came out of the Xiao Mansion, and the princess asked me to bring her here to have a look."

He had no expression on his face.

"oh."

Fuyao responded softly.

If she didn't know who he liked, she would really think that Feng Chenyu and the princess were having an affair!

After returning to the general's mansion, Fuyao went to the bedroom to embroider an eggplant bag.

After about an incense stick of time, the door was pushed open from the outside.

She looked up and saw Feng Chenyu walking in, then lowered her head and continued what she was doing.

Feng Chenyu put a cloth bag on the table.

"Open it and take a look."

Hearing this, Fuyao raised his head.

"What?"

"You'll know when you open it."

He whispered.

Fuyao put down the work in her hands, opened the bundle and found a set of green clothes.

"What does this mean?"

Feng Chenyu couldn't help but sigh.

"This is for you. It's almost a holiday."

"oh."

Fuyao hummed softly, then looked up at Feng Chenyu with a smile.

"Why don't you go shopping for clothes with the princess and bring me some too?"

Feng Chenyu took a step forward and looked at her face with sharp eyes.

"Are you jealous?"

"I'm just curious why the princess would come here to buy clothes."

After saying this, Fuyao sat back in her chair and continued to embroider the eggplant bag in her hand.

Looking at her calm and composed look, a hint of disappointment flashed in Feng Chenyu's eyes.

That’s right, she is the one who wants to take a concubine for him.

Soon, news came from the government, asking Zhuo Yunmeng and Zhang Buren to go to the government office.

That day, Qiu'er accompanied Zhuo Yunmeng and Xi'er to the county magistrate's office.

Zhang Buren had arrived earlier than them.

When the magistrate saw that everyone had arrived, he began to speak.

"Just now, Zhang Buren said that everything written in the lawsuit was false. Do you have any evidence?"

Fuyao chuckled.

"My Lord, there are only a few bad guys who will admit they did something wrong.

Now both Madam Zhuo and Xi'er have injuries on their bodies, which is physical evidence.

The magistrate should send someone to examine the injuries of the two men!"

The magistrate nodded and let the two men into the house to examine the injuries.

After a while, several people came out.

The person in charge of the medical examination,

"Both of them did have injuries of varying degrees, with Madam Zhuo's being particularly severe. It's confirmed to be the result of a human attack."

"Zhang Buren, do you have anything else to say?"

the magistrate asked loudly.

"But that doesn't prove that I was the one who hit him!"

Zhang Buren shamelessly argued.

"you.."

Mrs. Zhuo standing by was so angry that her face turned red.

At this time, Fuyao looked down at Xi'er beside her and said softly,

"Xi'er, is your father usually nice to you?"

Xier looked up at Zhang Buren,

"not good.

Dad loves to gamble. When he loses, he likes to drink and beat people.

And he always said that you can’t hit someone in the face because people can easily see it.”

"How dare you talk nonsense here, kid!"

Zhang Buren didn't expect Xier to be like this, so he said loudly.

Anyone with a discerning eye present probably knew the origin of the matter.

Then the magistrate said sternly,

"Zhang Buren, you've ruined your family through gambling and assaulted your wife and children. Your actions are deplorable, so I approve Zhuo Yunmeng's request for a divorce."

At the same time, he ordered someone to prepare a divorce letter, asked Zhang Buren and Zhuo Yunmeng to sign it, and then sent the divorce letter to Zhuo Yunmeng.

When Zhuo Yunmeng received the divorce letter, her eyes couldn't help but tear up.

New Year's Eve came in a blink of an eye. Nanny Wu in the general's mansion ordered people to do a thorough cleaning early in the morning, sweeping the courtyard and the house to remove dust and dirt.

As soon as it got dark, Fuyao asked Zhuo Yunmeng to close the store early, and asked Qiu'er to buy some food and clothes in advance for the mother and daughter to celebrate New Year's Eve.

When they returned home, a variety of food and wine had been prepared, filling the table.

Seeing that everyone was there, the housekeeper went to the room and invited Feng Chenyu to have the New Year's Eve dinner.

Fuyao, Feng Chenyu and Xianning sat at the same table.

Feng Chenyu turned around and looked at the person standing behind him.

"You guys come too."

Then Nanny Wu, the housekeeper, Qiu'er, and Ma Sui reluctantly came to the table.

"Happy New Year's Eve, everyone."

Fuyao looked at everyone happily.

"Madame Wu, housekeeper, thank you for your hard work."

Fuyao spoke sincerely. She knew in her heart that Nanny Wu did not like her, but she managed the general's mansion in perfect order.

"Madam, you are embarrassing me."

The butler raised his glass.

"Thank you, ma'am."

Nanny Wu was lukewarm.

The three of them drank the wine together.

"And Qiu'er, the store is so successful thanks to you!"

Fuyao turned around, raised her glass and looked at Qiu'er beside her.

Qiu'er is shy,

"This is what a servant should do."

After drinking the second glass of wine, Fuyao poured himself another glass.

"Come, Ma Sui, we've been to Ningbei together before. Thank you for taking care of us along the way."

As he said this, he raised his glass and clinked it with his.

Ma Sui hurriedly bowed his head respectfully,

"It's all part of my job."

After drinking a cup with Ma Su, Fuyao's face flushed. She turned around and smiled at Xian Ning who was sitting next to her.

"Don't worry, sister, let's drink slowly.

The biggest surprise of this New Year’s Eve is that I can spend it with you.”

Feng Chenyu originally thought that Fu Yao would say something to him, but he found out that she clinked glasses with everyone but him, which made him quite unhappy.

"Prime Minister, I respect you and thank you for everything you have done."

Xian Ning noticed the change in Feng Chenyu's expression and quickly raised her glass.

Feng Chenyu turned around and smiled,

"I appreciate your kindness. I won't drink since I'm injured."

He found a way out for himself.
