Chapter 116 Buddha said, it cannot be said
After returning to Prince Rui's Mansion, Ling Feng went straight to Zhou Jiafu's residence.
At this time, Zhou Jiafu was still practicing over and over again the scenes that Su Yuyan had just told him.
"Uncle Zhou, the princess asked you to take this pill and then come with me to Qiongyanfang."
After he finished speaking, Ling Feng took out the porcelain bottle from his waist that Su Yuyan had given him before leaving the house for the appointment.
Zhou Jiafu took the porcelain bottle without saying a word, poured out the pills and swallowed them.
The pills in the porcelain bottle are used to put the poisonous insect in Zhou Jiafu's body into a dormant state, out of Shangguan Rao's control.
Only when Zhou Jiafu is out of control can Su Yuyan's plan go smoothly...
At Qiongyanfang, quarter of an hour later, Shangguan Rao took the banknote from Shangguan Jue's trusted guard and handed it to Su Yuyan.
"This is a silver note worth one hundred thousand taels of gold. I'll take it away when the old slave comes."
Su Yuyan took the banknote.
"No problem."
Another quarter of an hour later, Ling Feng led Zhou Jiafu into a luxurious private room.
"Princess, the person has been brought here."
Su Yuyan looked at Zhou Jiafu.
"Uncle Zhou, you've been lonely for most of your life, but now your luck has come. The personal maid of the legitimate princess of Yuheng Kingdom has taken a fancy to you. Out of consideration for your happiness, I'm selling you to the legitimate princess of Yuheng Kingdom. From now on, she will be your master."
Shangguan Rao, who shares the same fate with Zhou Jiafu, has already discussed with Shangguan Jue: after buying Zhou Jiafu today, they will take this old slave to southern Xinjiang as quickly as possible to find Ayina to inquire about whether there are any witchcraft techniques that can prolong life.
So as soon as Su Yuyan finished speaking, Shangguan Rao gave instructions to Zhou Jiafu.
"This princess and my brother have been in Dafeng for quite some time. You should follow me now. We will be leaving for home soon."
Zhou Jiafu began to act out his script according to Su Yuyan's instructions.
He strode up to Su Yuyan and knelt down.
"Princess, I have worked in the palace for over forty years. How could you sell me off? And to another country!"
Su Yuyan took the role.
"Uncle Zhou, it is precisely because you have devoted yourself to the palace that I want you to have a happy old age. The maidservant beside the legitimate princess is not only young and beautiful but also wealthy. This kind of good fortune is not something that everyone can encounter."
After practicing for two hours, trainee Zhou Jiafu burst into tears.
"Princess, although I am bound by death, my ancestors have all been from Dafeng! They have all lived in Dafeng! I do not wish to follow the Princess of Yuheng to live in a foreign country! I beg you to revoke your order!"
Su Yuyan continued to take on roles.
Her face immediately darkened.
"Uncle Zhou, I'm doing this for your own good! Don't be ungrateful! You just said you're in a death bond, so you'll do whatever the master tells you to do!"
Shangguan Rao, who had spent a huge amount of money to buy an old man, was both unhappy and impatient.
She was about to give an order when she heard Zhou Jiafu suddenly raise his voice.
"I am the only child in my family! Dafeng, where my ancestors have been buried, is my root! So I will never go to a foreign country!"
"Since the princess has made up her mind, I will now smash my head against the wall and die in Dafeng! It will be like returning to my roots!"
After saying this, Zhou Jiafu slowly stood up and rushed towards the column in the private room.
Shangguan Rao was so breathless when he saw this!
"Zhou Jiafu, you are not allowed to kill yourself!"
But at this time, the Gu in Zhou Jiafu's body had become dormant under the effect of the medicine, so he did not stop.
Shangguan Jue also suffered from suffocation!
Seeing that Zhou Jiafu was not controlled by his sister, Shangguan Jue immediately gathered his energy and teleported forward to stop Zhou Jiafu.
While Shangguan Jue and his sister were still wondering why they couldn't control Zhou Jiafu by giving orders, Su Yuyan spoke again.
"You're looking for death over a disagreement? You really can't be kind to a servant at all!"
"Uncle Zhou, since you choose not to live, then go and die!"
After she finished speaking, Su Yuyan looked at Shangguan Rao again.
"Since I've already taken your money, after he dies, you can arrange for someone to carry his body away and deal with it yourself."
Shangguan Rao: “!!!”
If he dies first, I will die right after him!
"Princess Rui, I spent so much money, but in the end I got a corpse. Is this reasonable?"
Su Yuyan looked innocent.
"You saw and heard what happened just now. I tried to persuade him earnestly, but not only did he not listen, he even shouted at me."
"What else do you want from me? What do you want?"
"Do you really want me, the princess, to kneel down and beg him?"
"You paid me to buy him, and I gave him to you in good faith after receiving the money. But I can't do anything about him trying to commit suicide! How about this? I'll pay for a craftsman to make a coffin, and then I'll give you both the man and the coffin. That should be fine, right?"
Shangguan Rao: “!!!”
She was furious, but she couldn't find any fault with the other party.
When Jiang Xingyue, who came following, saw this, her eyes almost popped out: The emperor's sister-in-law is really awesome!
Shangguan Rao took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and stopped arguing with Su Yuyan. Instead, he began to think about the Heart-to-Heart Gu: He had clearly given Zhou Jiafu an order by name just now, but why was he not under his control?!
Shangguan Rao, who was confused, walked towards Zhou Jiafu, intending to give him another order.
"Zhou Jiafu, you must follow this princess right now."
Zhou Jiafu stood still like a mountain.
Shangguan Rao, not knowing what the problem was, was completely at a loss.
She thought for a moment: It’s no use continuing to be stuck in this stalemate. This old man has such a bad temper. Don’t make him angry to death.
"Since Zhou Jiafu doesn't want to leave Dafeng, I'll let Chunlan stay in Dafeng to take care of him."
Chunlan, who was standing respectfully behind Shangguan Rao, felt as if she had lost her parents when she heard this.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Jiafu suddenly raised his arms and shouted in a clear voice.
"Princess, I am from Dafeng! I would rather die than marry a woman from another country!"
Chunlan, who had been thinking of committing suicide, immediately saved her life after hearing this.
Su Yuyan, who was standing by, almost broke her back teeth before she could hold back her laughter.
"Shangguan Rao, how can we, as masters, let our servants control us? Show your courage and let him die."
Shangguan Rao: “!!!”
She felt a lump in her chest, unable to breathe, but she had no way to vent it.
She was really at her wit's end, so she thought for a moment and then spoke again.
"I didn't spend so much money to let him die! Besides, Chunlan would be heartbroken if he died."
"How about this? I'll give you another 10,000 taels, and you'll keep him safe."
Su Yuyan accepted it with pleasure.
"No problem. I'm absolutely trustworthy when it comes to running a business with integrity."
Now things have gone completely as planned. Shangguan Rao, who is in a dilemma and has no other options, gives Su Yuyan another ten thousand taels and turns away.
Because she felt that staying with Su Yuyan for a long time would make her angry to death!
Seeing his sister leave, Shangguan Jue glanced at Su Yuyan, then followed her.
Meeting his gaze, Su Yuyan stood up and walked forward, ready to test whether he had any romantic feelings for her.
"Shangguan Jue."
Shangguan Jue stopped.
"Um?"
Su Yuyan took out a piece of rice paper from her wide sleeves and handed it to him.
"It's nothing, actually."
"For someone who can sit on the throne of the Crown Prince, the ability to compose poetry and songs is a must. I wrote a poem yesterday and would like to hear your comments."
Shangguan Jue was stunned for a moment, not expecting her to come to him. Then he took the rice paper and opened it:
Tender Spring
The young plum blossoms are blooming, and the young branches are less damaged.
It smells tender like water from afar, and the spring green is easily visible.
After reading the entire poem, Shangguan Jue raised the corners of his lips slightly. Not only was there no anger in his eyes, but there was even a hint of smile.
"I didn't expect that Princess Rui could not only be vulgar but also write poems to criticize others."
“This poem is sharp and funny.”
Su Yuyan said, taking in every expression on his face.
"Since you think it's good, I'll give it to you."
Shangguan Jue folded the rice paper and stuffed it into the lapel of his shirt.
"Thank you very much."
Seeing that he showed no anger at being scolded from beginning to end, and instead placed the rice paper against his chest with great care, Su Yuyan had the following six points to say: "..."
No, do you have such a strong taste?
The jealous jar at home is about to be overturned again...
After testing, Su Yuyan returned to her seat.
"Your Majesty, I'm hungry."
Jiang Hanyu, who had just been staring at Shangguan Jue's changing expression, suppressed the jealousy in his heart and picked up the chopsticks to serve her the food.
Jiang Huaijin, who was watching Su Yuyan's every move the whole time, naturally also noticed Shangguan Jue's reaction.
It's okay to cooperate with Shangguan Jue, but if he sets his sights on Su Yuyan, Jiang Huaijin will never give in.
Because ever since Jiang Huaijin gradually discovered Su Yuyan's great wisdom and unfathomable nature, he secretly vowed to get her.
So, Jiang Huaijin decided to meet Shangguan Jue after leaving Qiongyanfang, and then speak frankly to him.
Having made up his mind, Jiang Huaijin found an excuse to leave.
After eating and drinking, Su Yuyan stood up.
"My Lord, let's go home."
Jiang Hanyu covered her small hand with his big palm.
"go home."
Jiang Xingyue jogged to catch up, and then couldn't help but start talking on the microphone.
"Imperial Sister-in-law, your control over the entire situation today is truly incredible! How did you manage to control everyone? Do you have any secret weapon? Also, was everything that happened today within your expectations?"
Su Yuyan curled her lips.
"The Buddha said, it cannot be explained."
Jiang Xingyue: "..."
Let me explain this in two ways.
On this side, Shangguan Jue, who received the message from Jiang Huaijin, replied to Jiang Huaijin immediately, because he also wanted to discuss some things with Jiang Huaijin before returning to China.
At midnight, the third private house behind Zhangji Carpenter Shop in the west of the city.
Jiang Huaijin, Shangguan Jue and Shangguan Rao sat around the table.
Shangguan Jue went straight to the point with Jiang Huaijin.
"The Lunar New Year is just a month away, so my sister and I will be preparing to return home soon."
"Since that old man is determined not to leave Dafeng, I would like you to send one of your nimble men to sneak into the Rui Palace as soon as possible, knock him unconscious, and then sneak him out."
Jiang Huaijin was very unhappy about being ordered around by Shangguan Jue again and again.
