Chapter 52 The original male protagonist Prince Li appears
Yingfeng followed the farmhand to the stables. Neither the horses nor the carriages could be left outside; they had to be taken to the designated stables and the area next to them for unloading the carriages.
Unlike the fear of the unknown in the warehouse, there were several people sitting in the main courtyard drinking tea and chatting.
Among them were several brothers of Prince Rui.
Ambergris was burning in the vestibule of the main courtyard.
There are fireplaces everywhere.
In the corner of the room, there were several pots of camellia in full bloom, one of which, the Eighteen Scholars, was in full bloom.
The hurricane outside did not affect the lively conversation inside at all.
"Brother, I heard that the useless guy is better now than before in the capital?" The speaker was Prince Li, the younger brother of Prince Rui.
Prince Li was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and was a handsome man.
He was dressed in a white dragon robe and wore a silver crown on his head. He looked modest, with a face like the spring moon and eyes like black ink.
Among the people present, only Prince Li is the most handsome.
Another man in a stone-blue robe was holding a string of warm jade beads in his hand. He narrowed his eyes and said sternly:
"Logically, this Southern Xinjiang poison will only get worse as it penetrates his bones, eventually draining him of all his energy and blood until he dies."
"How about we take this opportunity to take action?" The man in the purple brocade robe who spoke sat upright at the bottom and made a killing gesture.
The others all agreed with this, except Prince Rui who was at the top, who remained silent.
Everyone focused their attention on him.
Prince Rui held a teacup in his hand, a smile on his lips. "He's just a disabled man in a wheelchair, nothing to be afraid of. Besides, how about giving him a gift and adding a tattoo on his face?"
After a pause, Prince Rui looked out the window and said:
"You must know that the Emperor wishes us to be brothers and sisters. We cannot let Father down at this moment."
Prince Li agreed deeply:
"The Fifth Imperial Uncle is no longer useful. But the other Imperial Uncles are eyeing the position of Crown Prince. We can't let our guard down."
"Hahaha, tattoos are the symbol of slaves." Sitting below was a young man with a generous personality.
"Qiu Zhiying, a useless person is perfectly matched with the symbol of a slave. What kind of waves can such a person cause?" Prince Li glanced at Prince Rui who was sitting in the main seat, "Brother, please give me some more of this Nanshan Red."
"My Lord, may I ask for a few ounces of silver?"
The people sitting below had expectant looks on their faces. They knew that in the Zhou Dynasty, being able to produce Nanshan Red was a symbol of status.
"Hahaha, you're all family. No big deal."
Prince Rui smiled cheerfully and said:
"Zhou Wu, go open the small storeroom and get a few boxes of Nanshan Hong."
"Yes, Lord."
Zhou Wu bowed and left.
After Zhou Wu left, someone delivered a message at the door.
It was said that the people heading to Shihanzhou had been settled in the warehouse, and there were escorts waiting outside for a reply.
Qiu Zhiying stood up and clasped his fists, "Your Majesty, this is our man. I will go over and find out what's going on."
"Go ahead. Bring the two old ladies from the He family to the Princess's place. After all, it's a chance for them to meet each other as family members."
"yes."
Prince Rui looked at Prince Li.
"Second brother, there are several good girls in the He and Pei families. Would you like to pick two to warm your bed tonight?"
Prince Li shook his head and chuckled.
"Brother. If I had married her as my principal wife in the past, I would have used her. But now, I'm afraid even a concubine would be despised. As for her charm, she can't even compare to the girls in Zuihua Tower."
Hearing what he said, Prince Rui narrowed his eyes in displeasure.
Prince Li knew he had spoken out of turn, so he quickly stood up and clasped his fists to explain:
"Brother, what I said is quite reasonable. In my opinion, the daughter of Prime Minister Zhang is quite good. You can marry her to help us."
Prince Rui said coldly:
"Let's not talk about this right now. Let's first solve the problem at hand. Father is worried about that piece of trash."
"Okay, I'll have someone bring the waste over."
"Well, you take care of it." Prince Rui was very careful about his reputation and was unwilling to do many things himself.
A strange look flashed in Prince Li's eyes, and he lowered his head and left.
The wind outside is getting stronger and stronger.
People kept pouring into the warehouse, and some of them were crying bitterly.
Shen Yunyue knew that they all had family members blown away by the wind.
Wait until the wind has died down a bit.
The door was opened.
First, the two old ladies of the He family were called away, followed by the heads of the Pei, He and Lu families.
No one from other families moved.
Fu Xuanheng has not spoken since he came to the farm.
The whole person's mood is very low.
Hei had a cold face and no one around him dared to speak.
Shen Yunyue and he sat in the corner, and she had no mood to talk at the moment.
She sorted out the relationship between Prince Rui and Fu Xuanheng in her mind.
He also knew that the eldest prince would inherit the throne in the future, and that besides Prince Rui, there were several other princes who had emotional entanglements with He Luxue.
But at the last moment.
He Luxue chose Prince Li, a handsome and elegant man and the follower of Prince Rui.
Assisted him to ascend the throne.
Mr. Shen and his two brothers were trembling inwardly. They knew that this was not an ordinary family's farm.
Shen Ma, who was always talkative, also shut her mouth.
"Isn't this the young prince from the deposed crown prince's mansion?" Qiu Zhiying, wearing a golden peacock fur coat and a pair of small court boots with a green satin and pink base, kicked the wheelchair with his foot, his brows etched with disdain.
He touched his chin with his right index finger.
He suddenly realized:
"I forgot that you are now a commoner, a commoner exiled to Shihanzhou."
Fu Xuanheng's face was grim, and he clenched his teeth tightly, remaining silent. This Qiu Zhiying was just a dog by the side of Prince Rui, and in the past, he would only bow and scrape when he saw him.
Fu Xuanting's damn sense of honor suddenly emerged.
"So you're from the Qiu Mansion. Back then, you would always address our housekeeper as 'Old Master'. Now you've taken advantage of your master's power and forgotten how you used to fawn over others."
Fu Xuanting has not spoken since Aunt Feng died.
Qiu Zhiying turned his head and gave a sinister laugh.
"Little Princess." Qiu Zhiying walked over slowly and slapped Fu Xuanting aside with a hard slap.
"You're worse than a dog now, and you still dare to argue with me?"
Fu Xuanting spat out a mouthful of blood from the corner of her mouth, and she tried hard to stand up.
Shen Yunyue walked over and helped her up.
Fu Xuanting didn't expect that it would be Shen Yunyue who helped her up. She said softly:
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I have brought shame to my father. I cannot let these dogs insult him again."
Shen Yunyue knew in her heart that this was intentional.
These people will not let Fu Xuanheng have an easy time.
"Master Qiu, you are a magnanimous person, why bother with a child?"
"Hahaha, I heard that Prime Minister Shen's daughter has the same charm as he did back then. Let me see what she's like?" Qiu Zhiying took two steps forward, squinting his eyes and revealing a malicious smile.
He reached out to pinch Shen Yunyue's chin.
A warning flashed in Shen Yunyue's eyes, and she clenched her hands in her sleeves, wanting to hit him.
"Qiu Zhiying. Get out of here." Fu Xuanheng slapped Qiu Zhiying on the body.
He himself spat out a mouthful of blood.
Qiu Zhiying originally wanted to make Shen Yunyue suffer a little, but now he was attracted by Fu Xuanheng.
"How dare you, a commoner, fight with me?"
Qiu Zhiying wanted to embarrass Fu Xuanheng in public and let everyone present know that Fu Xuanheng was worse than a dog.
He grabbed Fu Xuanheng by the collar and threw him to the ground.
Looking at Fu Xuanheng lying on the ground spitting blood, he said, "Hahaha. Fu Xuanheng, what can you use to fight me?"
After squatting down, he reached out and slapped Fu Xuanheng's face.
"I can do whatever I want to you now. Do you still think you are a prince?"
Fu Xuanheng's eyes were bloodshot, he had to hold it in. He couldn't implicate Shen Yunyue and the Shen family.
"Qiu Zhiying, this prince will never bother to fight with a dog like you."
"Yeah?"
Qiu Zhiying spat on Fu Xuanheng's face.
He reached out and slapped Fu Xuanheng in the face.
Shen Yunyue really couldn't help it.
She screamed and knocked Qiu Zhiying over. Although she was short, she was very strong. She took the opportunity to reach out and put all the valuables on Qiu Zhiying into the space.
"I let you bully my husband, who do you think you are?"
Shen Yunyue used the Nine Yin White Bone Claw and scratched Qiu Zhiying desperately.
