Chapter 240: An Old Man Chats with Me



"Your Highness, my master said that if you try to force your way in, I must hold a gong and announce to everyone, 'Your Highness is breaking into a private residence in broad daylight and trying to kill innocent people.'" When Shangguan Feiyun was about to force his way in, the doorman gritted his teeth and said what his master had told him. He was prepared to be killed by Prince Jin's men.

After hearing this, Butler Yang was shocked. Li Yun was so bold. She was provoking the prince. Didn't she know that the prince should not be provoked? He was wondering if the prince was angry and wanted to strangle the doorman to death, but he was disappointed. What shocked him even more was that the prince actually compromised.

"Okay, very good! Li Yun, I'd like to see when you will come to beg me for help." Shangguan Feiyun clenched his fists angrily, suppressed his anger, and walked away.

Butler Yang followed Prince Jin away in shock. He was certain that the prince loved Li Yun terribly, otherwise he would not be willing to hurt her and compromise. This realization made him realize that Li Yun might be the future princess and mistress of Prince Jin's mansion.

Li Yun knew that Shangguan Feiyun didn't dare to force his way in, so he lay comfortably on the recliner, enjoying the warmth of the sun.

The next day, Du Kun took his people to renovate the shop.

Li Yun also took Dabao to the Imperial College, intending to send Dabao to study there.

The emperor in the palace also knew about Shangguan Feiyun's actions, and was even more aware that Fei'er and Li Yun were unhappy because of the daughter of the Minister of Rites. During the morning court session, the emperor reprimanded those ministers and fined them a year's salary. The ministers dared not speak out, their hearts filled with hatred for their incompetent daughter.

Arriving at the Imperial College, Li Yun took out the letter of guarantee and notice given by the lantern owner and handed them to the doorman.

"Madam, please wait a moment. I will go and report to the Lord Chief Priest." The doorman said to Li Yun excitedly, holding the letter of guarantee and notice.

Some time ago, the chief priest received a letter from the lantern owner in Qingshan County. The letter said that someone in their Qingshan Village had answered the last riddle. They had been given a letter of guarantee and a notice, and might be able to study at the Imperial College in the near future.

"Okay, go ahead." Li Yun said politely to the doorman.

Soon the chief priest came out with the doorman. Looking at the mother and son in front of him, he felt that they looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember where they were.

"Madam, have we met somewhere before?" the chief priest asked Li Yun.

"Fuck!" Ancient people also had this way of chatting up girls, but old man, you can be my father. Li Yun was really speechless. He was not a beauty, nor did he look like a man or woman.

"Sir, I have never met you." Li Yun said coldly.

Such a pervert who strikes up a fight with every woman he sees can really teach good students. I hope she won't harm Dabao.

"Madam, I misunderstood. I just thought you looked familiar. I didn't mean anything else." The chief priest was disliked by Li Yun, so he knew that the other party had misunderstood him and hurried to explain.

"I understand, but you are not my type. Let's talk about enrolling in the Imperial College." Li Yun's expression of "I understand" made the chief priest feel even more embarrassed.

"Madam is Li Yun from Qingshan Village, and this must be your son Chen Wen, right?" The chief priest knew that the other party had misunderstood, and he couldn't explain it clearly at the moment, so he had to tell her about Chen Wen's enrollment.

"Yes, have you read the admission notice and the letter of guarantee? I wonder if you can fulfill your promise." Li Yun asked the chief priest.

"Of course. My word is my bond. I will ask Chen Wen to come for the exam tomorrow to see which class he is suitable for. But I am very curious. Boss Zheng said that the questions I asked were guessed by Madam. How did Madam guess them?" The Lord Chief Lieutenant said to Li Yun.

Li Yun explained the answer to the Lord Chief Academician, who praised him repeatedly.

"Brilliant! Really brilliant! I didn't expect Madam to be so knowledgeable and to be able to understand the answer in this way. I really admire you."

"Thank you for the compliment, sir. I was just lucky and guessed it right by chance," said Li Yun.

"Madam, you are too modest. There are not so many coincidences in the world." The chief priest thought Li Yun was low-key.

"I will bring my eldest son here for the exam tomorrow. I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first. Dabao, say goodbye to the chief priest!" Li Yun did not forget the chief priest's initial conversation. She felt that after the matter was done, it would be better to leave early.

"Goodbye, Master Jijiu!" Dabao saluted respectfully to the Master Jijiu.

"Dabao, goodbye!" Seeing Li Yun's expression, the chief priest knew that she still misunderstood him as a lecher.

What an interesting woman! Does he look like a playboy? The chief priest stroked his beard in deep thought.

Li Yun took Dabao back to the yard and told his family the good news.

Mr. and Mrs. Chen Mo were very happy and asked the cook to add more dishes tonight.

Li Yun asked Changjiang to take her to see the ice workshop. Changjiang took Li Yun to the courtyard bought by the emperor.

They soon arrived at the ice workshop, which was a large courtyard with five entrances. It was built deep in the mountains. It was very hidden and safe. It seemed that the emperor was also afraid of being peeped at by others.

"Madam Li, you're going to the capital." Li Yun heard Cheng Shan's voice as soon as he got off the carriage.

"Commander Cheng, why are you here? Shouldn't you be in the palace protecting the emperor?" Li Yun looked at Cheng Shan and asked in surprise.

"Your Majesty, please send me here to protect the safety of the ice workshop. Madam Li, let's go inside and talk." Cheng Shan explained why he was here.

"Okay, let's go in and talk." Li Yun followed Cheng Shan to a large room, which should be the living room for entertaining people.

Soon, a servant brought tea. Li Yun took a sip and found it had a refreshing and fragrant taste. It was the best Longjing tea.

"When did Madam Li arrive in the capital?" Cheng Shan was also drinking Longjing tea, which was a reward from the emperor.

"I've just arrived two days ago. By the way, I haven't thanked Commander Cheng for sending me the secret guards. You are so polite!" Li Yun said to Cheng Shan.

"Madam Li, you...it's just a trivial matter. Madam Li treated you well in Qingshan Village. Sending a few secret guards is just a trivial matter." Cheng Shan was about to say that Madam Li was wrong and that he did not send her secret guards, but Changjiang stopped him with a look. He then continued speaking. He thought that it should have been sent by His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin, and he did not want Madam Li to know.

"By the way, Commander Cheng, the bed has been delivered to the capital. When you are free, you can go and get it back, or I can ask Changjiang to send it here to you." Li Yun thought that Cheng Shan's bed was still in the mansion, so he said to Cheng Shan.

"Let Changjiang send it to my house. I will go back to sleep on it when I have time." Cheng Shan thought that such a good bed should not be placed here, so as to avoid being peeped.

"Okay, Changjiang, go back and send the bed to Commander Cheng's residence." Li Yun said to Changjiang.

"Yes, master." Changjiang said respectfully.

"Commander Cheng, who is here and why is he bringing you a bed?" A man's voice came from outside the door. It should be the voice of a middle-aged man.

"Master Jiang, the person you have been thinking about is here." Changjiang replied.

Li Yun rolled his eyes speechlessly and said, "Commander Cheng, do you know how to use words? What is the person you are thinking about so much? When did I become the one he is thinking about so much?"

What happened today? I kept running into older men and letting them take advantage of me. I probably shouldn't go out today.
