Lu Jinmi's face was pale, and she bit her lip tightly without saying a word. She had lived here for sixteen years, and everything in it was carefully selected by her.
Why should she give it up like this? She's not willing to accept it!
Lu Jinmi stared intently at Zhu Yu: Lu Xiaoyun, we'll see!
The Duke of Zhenguo said to the group of maids and servants who were standing trembling to the side, "What are you standing there for? Help the Second Miss pack her things."
Tongjia Courtyard is the largest courtyard in the backyard besides the main wife's courtyard. It was also the courtyard that Lu Xiaoyun's birth mother personally arranged for her unborn child.
Besides the two personal maids, there were two second-class maids, two wet nurses, two head maids, and a group of servants waiting outside.
Having heard the Duke of Zhenguo's instructions and with Qiu Shui's lesson in mind, how could the crowd not take action?
The Duke of Zhenguo then said coldly to Fang, who was sprawled on the ground with her hair disheveled, "The Begonia Courtyard is Xiaoyun's mother's courtyard. I think the Green Bamboo Residence is a good place to cultivate one's character. You should move there."
Fang looked up in disbelief, staring intently at the Duke of Zhenguo: "Your Excellency, I have devoted myself to this family for more than ten years, and you have no regard for our past relationship at all! You and the heir are away from Shengjing City for most of the year. If it weren't for me, this family would have fallen apart long ago."
Lu Yucheng couldn't stand it any longer, and even his good manners couldn't stop him.
“Madam, if Father had no regard for our past relationship, do you think you would still have a place in the Duke of Zhenguo’s mansion? What mother would do to Xiaoyun?!”
Fang and Lu Jinmi were taken away by guards.
After the Fang mother and daughter unleashed their curses, Zhu Yu's bracelet now held 11,500 points.
He glanced down at the bracelet, indifferent. It was just an extra 1,500 points; he could raise it as much as he wanted.
The servants were quick; in no time, someone brought brand-new bedding and sheets and changed the things on the bed in the main room of Tongjia Courtyard.
Even the tea set in the room has been replaced with a new one.
Just then, Li Feng finally ran back, panting heavily.
She just didn't know that, so she went to Cuizhu Residence first.
When they arrived, the place was desolate. Even the gate was locked and covered with a thick layer of snow. Several sections of the wall had collapsed, and it looked like no one had ever been there.
She hurriedly inquired and finally found Tongjia Courtyard.
As soon as they arrived at the courtyard gate, they saw Madam Fang and the second young lady being escorted out. Their hair was disheveled and their clothes were filthy.
This surprised her greatly. Madam Fang considered herself the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo and held an imperial title, and was always very dignified.
The second young lady constantly flaunted her status as a first-class noblewoman in Shengjing City.
She usually only associated with noble ladies such as princesses and county princesses, and was very arrogant towards other women in the capital who fawned over her.
How could things have turned out this way?
Lu Jinmi glared fiercely at Li Feng.
Li Feng found it all very strange.
Seeing the second young lady's servants hurriedly packing their things, each with a dejected look on their faces, she didn't dare to ask any questions. Holding the dress that the prince had prepared for the princess to wear to the palace banquet tomorrow, she carefully stepped into the room.
The princess was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, and Old Master Hong was taking her pulse.
Li Feng rushed into the room, choking back tears, and asked, "Your Highness, are you feeling unwell again?"
Lu Yucheng glared and said, "What princess? You're not allowed to call me princess!"
Li Feng was startled: "Young Master..."
Lu Yucheng clutched the divorce agreement tightly to his chest. After Old Master Hong had read it, he would go to his father and tell him about it. He would tell him that Xiaoyun would stay here from now on and not go anywhere else.
It would be best if Father went to the palace tomorrow to ask the Emperor for a divorce decree, so that Xiaoyun and Prince An would never see each other again.
Any good man could be worthy of his sister, and even Prince An might not be worthy of her.
If she doesn't want to get married, then he can support her for the rest of his life.
After taking her pulse, Old Master Hong said to Zhu Yu, who was lying on the bed, "Miss, please lie down so I can take a look at the injury on your back."
Zhu Yu really didn't want to see him. Didn't he know about the injury on his back? He had a high fever last night, and the old doctor had probably already taken his pulse and knew his condition.
So much happened today; the wound on my back is aching again, and I'm afraid it's reopened in a few places.
He said, "Thank you for your concern, Elder Hong. My injury is nothing serious. The physician of the Prince An's Mansion, Mr. Lu Yuyan, is also extremely skilled in medicine. He has already examined me and said that as long as I rest properly for a while, there is nothing to worry about."
Lu Yucheng glared at his sister and said to Old Master Hong, "Old Master Hong, don't listen to her. Please take a good look at my sister."
Seeing his sister's weak state, and knowing that she had been leaning on him the whole time outside, he knew that she probably wouldn't be able to stand up any longer.
Old Master Hong nodded: "Young Master, I just took the pulse of the young lady. She is not only seriously injured and her spleen is damaged, but she was also poisoned a few days ago."
Lu Yucheng asked urgently, "The poison, now?"
Old Master Hong shook his head: "Young Master, don't panic. The poison was forced out in time. The doctor Mr. Lu that Miss mentioned is extremely skilled. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy to completely expel the poison from Miss's body after such a serious injury. If things had gone wrong, something terrible could have happened."
Lu Yucheng breathed a long sigh of relief, and his opinion of Lu Yuyan changed somewhat. Apart from being a homosexual and having an ambiguous relationship with Prince An, the young man now seemed to have some ability.
Lu Yucheng frowned slightly. How could this person have such a similar name to his own? Anyone who didn't know better would think they were brothers.
Old Master Hong turned to Zhu Yu and said, "Miss, your health is really too poor. I need to see the injury on your back with my own eyes before I can feel at ease prescribing medicine."
Zhu Yu had a headache. Why was Old Hong just like his brother-in-law, so stubborn?
Lu Yucheng: "Old Hong, is my sister seriously injured?"
Old Master Hong frowned, unsure whether he should speak frankly to the young lady's face, for saying such things would truly upset her.
Zhu Yu sighed silently. Rather than having Old Master Hong and his brother-in-law say something serious later, it would be better to talk it out in front of him.
He was quick-witted and said, "Mr. Hong, please feel free to speak. Besides, Mr. Lu has already told me that my health is indeed poor, mainly because it was congenital, so there's no need to hide it."
Old Master Hong nodded: "Miss, your arrow wounds haven't healed. You didn't receive timely treatment after being shot, which delayed the best time for treatment. Also, you have a wound on your knee, and your weakness and cold constitution are extremely serious."
“Young Miss’s body, alas, is riddled with wounds and needs proper care. Otherwise,” he paused for a moment before saying, “not only will she be unable to have children, but her lifespan will also be short.”
