Zhu Yu remembered that when Lu Xiaoyun married into the Prince An's mansion, she only brought the fat woman with her. Seeing that her face was red and swollen, her forehead was bruised, and her clothes were dirty and messy, it seemed that she had secretly slipped out of the Duke Zhenguo's mansion and came to find Lu Xiaoyun.
His Prince An's residence was not a place that just anyone could enter.
As for the injury on his face, it was absolutely impossible for it to be done by the servants in his Prince An's mansion. They would either kill him directly instead of bothering to hit a little girl, or they would just throw him out.
It was either someone from the Duke of Zhenguo's faction who did it, or someone from my mother's faction.
Judging from her appearance, which is almost exactly the same as my own swollen cheeks after being slapped, it must have been Zhang Mama who did it.
It's surprising that they didn't kill him.
Li Feng cried, "I heard that Miss was shot by an arrow on the wedding day. I was so worried. I was afraid that Miss would be left without anyone to serve her, so I secretly slipped out to go into Prince An's mansion to take care of her. But, but I can't get into Prince An's mansion at all. I can't see His Highness Prince An."
Zhu Yu knew that the assassination attempt on the Prince's mansion three days ago, and the fact that he was shot and fell into a coma, was probably known only to a few people, including his personal attendants and the imperial physicians who treated him. Even his father, the Emperor, probably didn't know the full story.
The imperial physicians who entered the Prince's residence would not allow the news to leak out unless the prince either woke up and was out of danger or died.
Li Feng, a mere maid, naturally had no idea that the "Prince An" she spoke of had only just woken up today.
The fact that Lu Xiaoyun was shot and fell into a coma was probably leaked by either the steward or Jiang Chuan on purpose, which is quite surprising that such a loyal maid found out.
"Waaah, thank goodness, I ran into the steward of the Prince's mansion who was going out."
"The steward just allowed it?" Zhu Yu was extremely dissatisfied. Yuan Xiu had lost his mind, letting just anyone in. Was the gate of his Prince An's mansion just for show?
Li Feng shook her head, wiping away her tears, and chuckled smugly, "No, the steward completely ignored me and ordered people to throw me out. But who am I? No matter how many times Steward Yuan throws me out, as long as I have a breath left, I can get up."
“Every time they threw it, I would get up and beg them again and again. I knelt in front of the Prince’s mansion for three days, and Steward Yuan was so annoyed by me.”
Zhu Yu grew increasingly furious as he listened, his brows furrowing deeply. How could Yuan Xiu be the steward of the Prince's mansion? Why didn't he kill the man, and instead let a little maid cause a scene at the mansion's gate for three days?
If word gets out, what will become of the Prince An's mansion's reputation!
When did Yuan Xiu become so incompetent? He's a disgrace to the Prince An's mansion.
However, Zhu Yu felt that this idea was somewhat inappropriate given the current situation.
That damned woman, I don't know what kind of sorcery she used!
Li Feng continued, "Later, more and more people gathered on the street to watch the commotion. We also heard that Consort Duan had come to Prince An's residence. The steward was worried that my presence there would have a bad influence, and that it would be even worse for him if Consort Duan found out. So he agreed to ask Prince An. Unexpectedly, Prince An actually agreed. That's why I came in."
Lu Xiaoyun, ha, does she really think that by bringing her personal maid to the Prince An's mansion, she will have an ally by her side and be able to keep possessing his body forever?
What a joke! Do you think they can let a third person know what they're like now?!
However, this is for the best. In his current state, he does indeed need a maid to take care of him.
Moreover, regarding Lu Xiaoyun, whether she was truly a wolf in sheep's clothing during her eighteen years in the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, as she claimed, needs to be investigated from the maid named Li Feng.
Zhu Yu said calmly, "You ran out like this, didn't Madam send you back?"
Li Feng blinked. Miss used to call Madam "Mother," but she didn't think much of it and shook her head, saying, "Of course. But I'm very clever. As soon as they came, I clung tightly to the stone lion at the entrance of Prince An's mansion, and they didn't dare to touch me."
Zhu Yu was still gratified by this; no one in the entire capital city would dare to touch anything belonging to the Prince An's mansion, not even a single blade of grass.
Of course, Li Feng's puzzled look as soon as he blinked did not escape his notice.
Little did Li Feng know, she continued, "Although my indenture is still in Madam's hands, I can't care about that anymore. I just want to come to Miss's side. Miss, from now on I will follow you wherever you go. Please don't leave me behind again, okay?"
Zhu Yu nodded, surprised that someone like Lu Xiaoyun would have someone so loyal to her: "Before, when I treated you like this, no one was willing to come to the Prince An's Mansion with me. Why were you willing?"
Li Feng's nose tingled with emotion: "Miss, have you forgotten? It was you who saved my life and the lives of my family."
Would Lu Xiaoyun really be so kind?
Zhu Yu said, "It's a small matter, who would take it to heart?"
Li Feng shook her head and said, "Miss Yu, this is a small matter for you, but it is a life-saving grace for me. When I was five years old, my hometown was flooded, and everyone in the village was fleeing. There was no food, and many people starved to death. At that time, my family came to Shengjing City with the famine refugees. It was you, Miss, who saw me faint from hunger and bought me with silver. Moreover, you gave my family an extra two taels of silver so that they could buy some food."
"If it weren't for you, Miss, my family would have starved to death ten years ago. Not to mention that after arriving at the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, I have never gone hungry again. So, no matter where you go in the future, Miss, I will always follow you."
Zhu Yu paused for a moment. Ten years ago, Lu Xiaoyun was only eight years old. Did she still have a shred of conscience?
"Miss, please rest well. I'll go and beg the Prince again in a little while. Since the Prince has agreed to let me enter the Prince An's residence, he certainly won't abandon you. At worst, I'll just kneel a few more times."
Zhu Yu frowned and said, "Haven't you had enough of being beaten yet?"
Li Feng shook her head: "My life is cheap, it's alright, it doesn't hurt." She grinned as she finished speaking, but then pulled at her wound and hissed in pain.
It really hurts.
Zhu Yu snorted softly.
Li Feng got up and tucked the blanket around "Miss". When her eyes fell on the blood on Zhu Yu's shoulder, her face turned pale. She immediately lifted the blanket to check. When she saw that her "Miss" was covered in blood, she burst into tears again.
"Miss, how did you get so badly injured? Does it hurt a lot?"
And the injuries on the young lady's face, sob sob, who was so wicked to hurt her like this?
After saying so much, Zhu Yu felt even weaker and his head was spinning again: "Don't cry, I'm fine. Go and pick some honeysuckle, boil it into a soup, and I'll drink a few bowls. If the fever goes down, I'll be fine. Also, make sure you're clean."
We must bring down his fever first, otherwise he will surely be burned to death, which would be a waste of that vicious woman, Lu Xiaoyun's, resources.
She's dreaming!
How could he let her succeed!
