After a short rest at a roadside inn, feeding the horses and solving everyone's physiological problems, the convoy set off again.
This time, Nanny Hong got into Yu Zizhen's carriage before her, so as to prevent Yu Zizhen from locking her out again.
Yu Zizhen had other plans later, so he didn't insist on kicking her out of the car.
When Yu Zizhen heard Nanny Hong say, "I am worried about you," he just glanced at her coldly.
Nanny Hong gnashed her teeth in hatred, but because of so many eyes outside, she didn't dare to act too rashly in front of Yu Zizhen.
As she wished, she stayed in this spacious and comfortable carriage. While Nanny Hong breathed a sigh of relief, her dark idea of keeping Yu Zizhen in her hands became more and more resolute.
She did not let Yu Zizhen sleep. Instead, she took out two books and placed them in front of Yu Zizhen. She lectured Yu Zizhen in a pretentious tone, asking Yu Zizhen not to neglect his studies even if he was in a hurry.
"This old servant is doing this for your own good. The princess has always hoped that you, the prince, would be successful in your studies and bring honor to her. From now on, when you are on your way, read a book. When you go to an inn or post station, practice calligraphy for an hour. The next morning, get up and practice martial arts for another hour..."
Yu Zizhen sneered, "You can watch if you want, and write if you want."
The young owner loves martial arts and doesn't like reading. Yu Zizhen feels that his answer is true to himself.
As she was thinking, the baby-voiced system suddenly spoke, "Host, the original owner has a very gentle personality."
What this means is, stop flattering yourself, you are seriously OOC.
Yu Zizhen: ...Sure enough, the dog system is most energetic when it is complaining about her.
"Prince!" Nanny Hong suddenly raised her voice, startling Yu Zizhen who was trying to argue with the system that there was no OOC at all.
Yu Zizhen was furious. "Stop the car! Stop the car! I can't go to the capital!"
The coachman was not as bold as Madam Hong. When he heard Yu Zizhen's loud shouting in the carriage, he immediately stopped the carriage.
"Prince? What's wrong with you?"
Hearing the driver's nervous questioning, Yu Zizhen burst into tears, "Madame Hong is yelling at me! I haven't even left the northern border yet, and I've already been ridden on by a shrew. I... wuwuwu... I'm not going to the capital! I'm not going to the capital!"
She shouted the last two sentences so loudly that even the guards walking around her carriage turned their heads to look at her.
Nanny Hong was stunned by her fierce counterattack. She muttered to herself, "Is that called yelling?" But wanting to calm things down, she subconsciously covered Yu Zizhen's mouth with her hand.
How could Yu Zizhen sit there obediently and let her cover her? Relying on her petite figure and agility, she started playing a game of chase with Nanny Hong around the long table in the carriage.
As she ran away, she cried out in a shrill voice, "Ah ...
The driver was so frightened that he stretched out his hand to violently break open the door that was tied from the inside. However, before he could pull hard, the door was opened from the inside by Yu Zizhen.
Yu Zizhen deliberately pretended to be in a mess, and crawled out of the carriage, brushing against the driver's arm.
Even after his feet touched the ground, Yu Zizhen was still howling without any real action.
"Wow, wow, wow—I have no home—my parents don't want me anymore—now even a servant can chase me and beat me up—wow, wow, wow—what's the point of me still living? I'd rather die! Ahhhh—I'd rather be hit to death!"
At the end of the conversation, Yu Zizhen screamed and was about to crash into the carriage.
"Prince!"
"Prince, calm down!"
"Don't be impulsive, my prince!"
"Prince..."
The guards and attendants around her all exclaimed in surprise, and the two guards closest to her did not hesitate, one blocking her way and the other grabbing her collar.
Those who were far away couldn't squeeze in, so they could only ride their horses to find Mr. Jiang, the backbone of their team.
Mr. Jiang was furious when he received the report. He stopped the carriage he was riding in, and then ran all the way to Yu Zizhen with his robe in hand.
Yu Zizhen was stopped by the guards and his attempt to commit suicide failed. At this moment, his eyes were red and empty. He didn't look at anyone, sobbing and muttering over and over again.
"I have no home."
"My parents don't want me anymore."
"The nanny my mother sent chased me and beat me. My mother must have said something to her."
"If even a servant can beat and scold me, what's the point of living?"
"Let me die."
"What are you stopping me for?"
“…”
She didn't shed a single tear (mainly because she didn't have the handkerchief smeared with ginger juice with her), but her look of despair and despair made people around her feel more sympathetic than her aggrieved look with tears streaming down her face.
Knowing that she had caused a big disaster, Nanny Hong wanted to stop Yu Zizhen before the matter got out of hand. However, she was unable to catch Yu Zizhen even when she was in the carriage. Once she got out of the carriage, Yu Zizhen was protected by the entourage and guards from the Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion, so she had no way of contacting Yu Zizhen.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the only thing she could do was to put on a stern face, suppress her resentment, and soften her voice as much as possible to coax Yu Zizhen.
She wanted to coax Yu Zizhen before Mr. Jiang came over, but Yu Zizhen looked as if he could no longer hear anything outside and was immersed in his own sadness and despair.
"First, have someone take that old woman aside. Don't let her get in the way of the prince here!" Mr. Jiang, overwhelmed with worry, lost all his composure. He lowered his voice and instructed the leader of the guards, "Then send someone to tell those people in the capital that Madam Hong has suddenly fallen ill and we're mobilizing personnel to send her back."
The leader of the guard team immediately sent someone to do it. He knew that after hearing what Mr. Jiang said, Madam Hong would no longer be able to stay in this team.
But he didn't sympathize with the other party. Not only did he not sympathize with him, he even wanted to say, "Serves him right!"
He had never seen such a domineering servant as Madam Hong. First, she knocked on the door of Yu Zizhen's carriage like crazy, and then she shamelessly got into Yu Zizhen's carriage. She did some unknown things to Yu Zizhen in the carriage, forcing Yu Zizhen to jump out of the carriage crying and screaming. Now, she was simply out of sorts.
The wicked servant bullied the young master, and he did so under the banner of the young master's biological mother, the mistress of their palace. Is this something a normal servant would do?
"Prince." Just as the leader of the imperial guards was muttering to himself about Matron Hong, Mr. Jiang had already tiptoed to Yu Zizhen's side. Half-crouching, he said to Yu Zizhen in a gentle voice, "Don't be afraid, Prince. I will send Matron Hong back to the palace to receive her punishment."
Yu Zizhen turned his head blankly, "It's no use. She said she was following the princess's orders."
Mr. Jiang's heart skipped a beat.
