Chapter 78 The Prince is Too Easy to Coax
Ignoring Lin Ruoli's struggle, Lin Siqiong pulled her back to her seat.
As soon as Lin Ruoli sat down, tears began to fall from her eyes.
"Mother, why does the prince treat me like this?"
Seeing Lin Ruoli crying so sadly, Lin Yu felt heartbroken.
This is his niece who grew up under his care and has always been his pride. But now, because of Yu Youning, she has been hurt like this.
Yu Youning actually dared to compete with Li'er for the prince. He must teach Yu Youning a lesson and let her understand that she cannot snatch what is not hers!
"Li'er." Lin Siqiong whispered, her voice choking. "He is the prince, and you are a subject. What he wants to do is not yours to say. Although mother doesn't want to tell you this too early, she has to tell you now. It's just a pity for my Li'er. She is so young and has devoted herself to him, but..."
Lin Siqiong couldn't continue speaking and picked up a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes.
Yong'an Hou saw this scene as soon as he came back. He glared at Lin Siqiong fiercely and lowered his voice to scold her, "Why are you crying? Aren't you ashamed enough? If you cry again, go home and cry!"
Lin Siqiong's body trembled slightly, but she still forced a smile, "Father, don't be angry, I understand."
Lin Yu looked at this scene and became more and more angry.
His sister was eight years older than him. Ever since he could remember, she had grown into a beautiful young lady. Not only was she in charge of the household chores in the mansion, she was also loved by his father and mother and respected by the servants in the mansion. Even in the capital, she had an excellent reputation.
Over the years, my sister has been doing well and has given birth to a good daughter like Li'er.
But since Yu Tingwan and Yu Youning came back, everything has changed!
My sister and Li'er have been wronged one after another, and now they have to be treated coldly by the prince and scolded by their father in front of so many people.
His sister should live the most respectable life and should be envied and liked by everyone.
Lin Yu slowly turned his head and looked in the direction of Yu Youning.
Yu Youning was eating, and he looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.
But the prince seemed to be blind. Not only did he not despise her, he even kept picking up food for Yu Youning and took care of her meticulously!
The one who should receive this kind of care is Li'er!
If it weren’t for Li’er, the prince would have died long ago!
The prince is so ungrateful, he must have been bewitched by the little witch Yu Youning!
Lin Yu twitched the corners of his mouth, his eyes full of malice.
Since all this was caused by Yu Youning, wouldn’t it be enough to just get rid of Yu Youning?
...
The banquet at the Huainan Palace was so delicious that Yu Youning was not only very satisfied with the meal, but also took away a lot of snacks when he left.
Two big packages were hanging on Hongyun's side, perfectly demonstrating the meaning of "eating and taking".
Yu Youning didn't think there was anything shameful about this. On the contrary, she was very happy. She planned to make some nourishing pills and give them to Chu Qingran after she returned.
Chu Qingran really wants to have a baby, so help her!
"Grandfather, are there any medicinal herbs in the house?" Yu Youning asked in a baby voice.
"Medicinal herbs?" Marshal Wen was a little surprised and worried at the same time. "Youning, what do you want medicinal herbs for? What kind of medicinal herbs do you want? Are you feeling unwell?"
Could it be that I ate too much?
Marshal Wen thought he was a big eater when he was young.
But now, seeing how Yu Youning ate, he finally understood what it meant to surpass the master.
Yu Youning shook her head. "I'm not feeling unwell! I want to make some pills for Aunt Qingran to recuperate."
"So that's how it is!" Marshal Wen finally breathed a sigh of relief. "It's very good to repay a favor. There are some medicinal herbs in the mansion, but they may not be complete. When we get back, I will ask the butler to invite the owner of the medicine shop. You can just tell him directly what herbs you need."
"Thank you, Grandpa! Then I'll make some medicine for you!"
Marshal Wen laughed heartily, "Great! As long as it's made by Youning, Grandfather will take any medicine!"
In a carriage not far behind the two of them, Chu Huaixu stuck his head out of the window.
Although Marshal Wen was old, his posture was still straight, blocking Yu Youning in front of him tightly. Chu Huaixu could not see anything and could only sit down helplessly.
Thinking of Lin Ruoli, the smile on Chu Huaixu's lips faded a little.
He had already found out that Lin Siqiong had embezzled money in the Marquis' Mansion over the years, and a large part of it was sent to the Imperial Observatory.
Among them, the supervisor got the most.
From this, it can be seen that there must be a secret between Lin Siqiong and the director of the Imperial Observatory.
The only uncertainty now is whether the problem lies in Lin Ruoli's birth date or the supervisor's comment.
But since there is already a clue, and he just said that to Lin Siqiong at the banquet, Lin Siqiong must be feeling uneasy, right?
As long as she panics, she will make mistakes, and he just has to wait!
A quarter of an hour later, the large maroon horse in front and the carriage behind stopped at the door of the first-class general's mansion at the same time.
Looking at Chu Huaixu walking quickly towards him, Marshal Wen frowned slightly, "Why hasn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returned to the palace?"
Chu Huaixu had a gentle smile on his face. "There's nothing to do when we get back, so I'll just play with Yu Youning first. I guess I won't disturb you, okay?"
Marshal Wen's eyes widened.
This prince can now tell lies with his eyes open!
Although the prince is young and has not formally participated in court affairs, the emperor will not hide the affairs of the court from him.
He would even set aside an hour every afternoon to discuss court matters with the prince.
Not to mention, after returning to the palace every day, the prince has to study more advanced subjects with his master.
With so many things to do, the prince is so busy that he can’t finish it all, and yet he says he has nothing to do?
Who is he fooling?
Marshal Wen was just thinking about it when he heard Yu Youning's snoring voice.
"You have nothing to do this afternoon? Well, I'm going to make pills. Do you want to join me? This is fun too!"
Yu Youning spoke seriously, even with a hint of bewitching tone.
Chu Huaixu agreed without any hesitation, "Okay!"
Hearing that Chu Huaixu agreed, Yu Youning smiled even more happily.
This prince is so easy to coax!
It’s great to have someone to help you with your work!
Marshal Wen was much taller than both of them. He looked down at them and could see the smiles on their faces clearly.
Although both of them were smiling, they seemed very satisfied with the results.
But Marshal Wen felt that what the two of them were thinking now were probably completely different things.
But no matter what, the prince would definitely not leave, so Marshal Wen could only lead the two of them back to the mansion and asked the butler to invite the manager of Huichun Hall immediately.
Huichuntang is one of the best medicine shops in the capital. It not only has a complete range of medicinal materials, but also has good quality. It has a good reputation in the capital.
It didn't take long before the owner of Huichuntang arrived.
Yu Youning had already written two pieces of paper and handed them directly to the owner of Huichuntang. "These are the medicines! When can they be delivered?"
The shopkeeper of Huichuntang looked at the prescription carefully. The more he looked, the tighter his brows furrowed, and in the end, he looked very sad.
"Miss, most of the herbs you requested are too precious and are not available in Huichuntang!"
Before Yu Youning could say anything, Marshal Wen felt as if he had been slapped hard in the face.
He was just boasting about Huichuntang in front of his granddaughter, so how come he was slapped in the face the moment he turned around?
"Why not?" Marshal Wen asked hurriedly.
He was a little anxious and his voice was a little louder, sounding like he was angry.
The shopkeeper of Huichuntang fell to his knees with a thud, "Old Marshal, calm down!"
Marshal Wen, "???"
He was not angry!
He just wanted to ask why not!
Also, where can I get these herbs?
Yu Youning didn't expect that he wouldn't be able to buy these medicinal herbs.
When she was in Medicine King Valley before, these medicinal herbs were always available whenever she wanted to use them!
Even if it is a more rare and precious medicinal herb than this, she can use it as she pleases!
Yu Youning scratched his head in distress, "No, then——"
Then we can only send someone back to Yaowang Valley to get it.
But before he could finish his words, Chu Huaixu had already stood up and took the two pieces of paper from the owner of Huichuntang.
After a careful look, they all looked very familiar. I had seen them in the account books of his private vault.
Chu Huaixu's smile became even brighter.
Isn’t this a coincidence!
His time to show off has finally come!
"Youning, I have all these herbs. I'll have someone go back and get them and send them over."
The distress and confusion on Yu Youning's face disappeared instantly. "I said, these herbs should be very common!"
"Yes! It is indeed common!"
Chu Huaixu said as he handed two prescriptions to his guards, "Go back and get them now, and come back quickly."
The owner of Huichuntang looked at the two of them with a complicated expression, feeling mixed emotions.
Do these two know what they are talking about?
What does it mean that those medicinal herbs are common?
That's clearly...
Before he could continue thinking, he heard Marshal Wen speak again.
"Well, you've been on a completely wasted trip today. Sorry to bother you, housekeeper, please send him out!"
The shopkeeper didn't dare to complain. He immediately got up from the ground and followed the housekeeper out.
As soon as I stepped out of the door, I heard the little girl calling "Prince" in a soft voice.
The shopkeeper's legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees.
It turns out that the young boy is actually the prince!
No wonder he is so majestic!
No wonder they are so wealthy!
Those medicinal herbs are naturally rare for Huichuntang, but for the prince, they are indeed nothing.
He actually met the prince today, and the prince took something from him. Isn't that equivalent to the prince touching his hand?
The shopkeeper looked down at his hands and decided not to wash them when he got home.
In the room, Yu Youning was talking to the prince about what kind of pills they were going to make.
Since the prince had helped her, she also planned to make some pills for him.
