"Nothing interesting, but I heard that the Crown Prince came here several times and personally supervised the construction at the Plum Forest Courtyard. He also brought with him a talented craftsman who designed and built a pavilion specifically for the Plum Forest Courtyard."
"But later I heard that the skilled craftsman was just a name for nothing. He had only been at the Prime Minister's residence for half a day when he seemed to have changed into a different person. He couldn't build the pavilion, couldn't even draw the design, and was driven out."
"Miss, how can such a slacker be called a renowned craftsman? I'm afraid all his previous works were done by others, and he simply took the credit for their work and passed it off as his own!"
"This kind of person actually deceived the eldest prince. He deserves to be kicked out of the palace!"
"His Highness the First Prince was kind-hearted. He only gave him a hundred lashes, left him with a last breath, and threw him out of the palace."
"Yeah, if it were someone else, they would probably be beaten to death!"
Yan Yunshu's expression became serious. "Where is that person now?"
"Miss, do you want to go and see the excitement? It's better not to go. The bloody mess is really unbearable to watch. You are a noble girl, why would you want to get involved in such a bloody thing?"
Yan Yunshu said, "Oh, I didn't mean to go and see it. I was just curious. Life in this mansion is boring. I haven't encountered such an interesting thing in a long time."
Xiao Hong: "My dear Miss Shu, we haven't seen anything this interesting in a long time! We just went to the gate and saw a lot of people watching. This guy has a bad reputation and there's no one to take him away. I guess he's going to freeze to death at our gate soon."
Xiaolu: "No, the master has already ordered that after nightfall, the housekeeper should send someone to quietly wrap him in a mat and throw him into the mass grave!"
Xiaohong: "Why do you always have more news than me?"
Xiaolu: "Of course, don't you see what my nickname is? I'm the gossip of the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
Yan Yunshu looked at the two of them approvingly, then lowered her brows, ate a few more bites of pastry, stretched, and sent the two of them away on the pretext of preparing bath water.
After the two left, she hurriedly got up and went back to her room. After changing into a maid's uniform, she came to the residence she had arranged for Nanny Lin and Xiu Lian Xiao Ye.
Now she wants Xiaohong and Xiaolu to be pawns by her side, so she has not arranged for the three of them to serve her personally for the time being.
She hurried into the courtyard and saw Xiulian coming towards her from afar.
"Why are you here dressed like this, Miss?"
"Sisters, Yun Shu asks you for a favor!"
"What's up?"
"The skilled craftsman in front of the mansion, please bring him in quietly so that we can treat and take good care of him."
"Okay!" Xiulian and Xiaoye nodded without hesitation.
"Don't you want to know why I do this?"
"We will do whatever the girl tells us to do! She must have her own reasons for doing this! Whether she is right or wrong, we will always stand on her side."
Yan Yunshu was very moved and felt warm. In this life, she finally had more and more people who could help each other.
Xiulian and Xiaoye didn't waste any time, and quickly put on their veils and headed for the Xiangfu gate. Yan Yunshu, worried that the two would be exhausted from dragging a grown man, thought for a moment and followed them.
It was already completely dark and a light snow had begun to fall. There was no one at the gate of the prime minister's residence. Xiulian and Xiaoye struggled to pull the craftsman out of the snow. Then, each of them dragged the craftsman. They had only dragged one on each side of the craftsman for ten steps when they heard a sound from the gate of the residence.
"I guess he's dead by now, let's get rid of him quickly!"
"Yes, it's already night, and if the snow gets heavier, I'm afraid to go to the mass grave."
"Then let's hurry up..."
