Chapter 490: Meeting People from Prince Huai’s Mansion
Murong Yi was so scared that he took a few steps back. He felt a chill on his neck and protected his neck tightly with both hands.
Looking at Su Xue in horror, he said, "You, you, you crazy woman, what do you want to do?"
Su Xue smiled evilly: "What? Of course I want to kill you. You are a man, how dare you ask me to plead for you? How incompetent and useless are you? What's the point of keeping such a useless man like you?"
Su Yue looked at Su Xue, whose face was distorted. Compared with her usual gentle and virtuous self, she was simply unbearable to look at.
She didn't know how twisted a person's mind had to be to have such an expression?
Seeing this, Su Yue was no longer interested in watching. She glanced at the two people who were already fighting, then turned and left.
There is no need for anyone to take action. These two people will not survive here for long.
In fact, they are not tempted by power. They will live peacefully until old age, and maybe even have many children and grandchildren.
Su Yue stopped at the door. She remembered that Murong Yi's wife was Chen Ying, and he also had a concubine, Chen Fanghua.
So she spread out her mental power and saw a person sitting on the floor in a dim room in the west wing. This person was Chen Ying.
Chen Ying was dressed neatly, with an expressionless face. She sat there quietly with her eyes closed. If you didn't see that she was still breathing, you would have thought she was dead.
Su Yue saw that she was wearing a monastic robe, but there was no wooden fish in front of her.
Su Yue also admired her very much. Her entire family was executed, and Murong Yi was demoted to a commoner and imprisoned in this clan residence. The two of them had already fallen out with each other, but she was still alive and well.
She looks calm and unconcerned with the world, but I have no idea what she is feeling.
However, since the person is no longer alive, there is no point in chanting Buddha's name.
Su Yue withdrew her mental power and looked at the other rooms again. There were some former servants of Prince Yi's Mansion in the rooms, but Chen Fanghua was nowhere to be seen.
She withdrew her spiritual power and asked the captain, "Doesn't Murong Yi have a concubine, Chen Fanghua? Why haven't I seen her?"
The captain of the officers and soldiers was stunned, wondering what the look in Princess Li's eyes was. He took a quick look at the east wing and realized that Chen Fanghua was not there.
However, he didn't think too much about it and replied respectfully, "Princess, you may not know that on the day before Miss Chen San's wedding, the old Duke went to the palace to ask the Emperor for an imperial decree to dissolve the engagement between Murong Yi and Miss Chen San. Naturally, Miss Chen San did not marry into Prince Yi's mansion."
After the captain of the officers and soldiers finished speaking, he was still thinking in his heart that the old Duke had a pair of sharp eyes and could see from the beginning that Prince Yi wanted to rebel.
"I see!"
Su Yue nodded. It seemed that the old Duke was not blinded by power and was a man who could judge the situation.
There is a reason why the old Duke's Mansion has been able to stand firm.
However, it is hard to say whether the old Duke's Mansion will collapse after his death. With foolish descendants like Chen Zihao and Chen Fanghua, its decline is only a matter of time.
Su Yue took Hongye Hongyu out of the clan residence and looked back at the closed door. She did not get on the carriage, but strolled on the street.
The two girls followed her, and the carriage followed her.
Su Yue was actually in a good mood. She just wanted to take a walk and see the trees on both sides of the street sprouting new buds. Spring had quietly arrived.
"Stop, stop right there!"
Suddenly, a roar was heard in the alley, followed by two people, one big and one small, chasing after them.
Su Yue stopped immediately.
Behind the Zongrenfu is a residential area. This residential area is special. It is inhabited by royal relatives who were demoted to commoners. These people were not exiled or imprisoned in the Zongrenfu.
To put it bluntly, they are all royal relatives who are innocent but have been implicated.
In order to prevent them from causing trouble, they were allowed to live in this area, and the transformed ones were imprisoned here.
People living here are not allowed to leave the capital without an imperial decree and can only move freely within the capital.
The person being chased was a boy about ten years old. He had a messy hair, a decent appearance, and was dressed in rags. He was wearing a pair of worn-out shoes. He ran staggeringly with his fists clenched, and looked back at the man chasing him from time to time.
The man chasing him was a little fat and panting, but he was well dressed and was cursing as he chased him.
Su Yue waved to Hongyu behind her. Hongyu nodded, ran quickly towards the boy and grabbed him.
The boy was suddenly caught by Hongyu. He looked up in surprise at the person who was holding him, then looked back at the slightly plump man who was about to catch up with him. He struggled hard, trying to break free from Hongyu's restraints.
Hongyu picked him up and brought him to Su Yue like a chick, then put him down, still not letting him go.
The boy looked at Su Yue with his eyes fluttering like a deer's. Seeing that she was the kind of gorgeous woman he had in his eyes, he struggled even harder.
Su Yue was very curious. When the boy saw her, he showed disgust in his eyes instead of asking for help.
"Who are you? Let this kid go!"
The slightly plump man had caught up and saw Hongyu holding the boy and standing in front of Su Yue, and immediately shouted.
Su Yue looked at him. This man looked like a fierce man, but he couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth.
She looked at the fat man coldly: "Who is this boy to you? Why do you scold him like this?"
The slightly plump man looked at Su Yue in amazement, then said disdainfully: "I am not related to him. I am just here to arrest him."
"Then why did you arrest him? Did he break the law or did he owe you money?"
The slightly plump man said impatiently, "Madam, I advise you to stop interfering in other people's business and leave this kid to me."
"I don't want to go back with you. I'd rather die of hunger and cold here than go back with you."
The boy in Hongyu's arms jumped and struggled violently, yelling at the slightly plump man.
The slightly plump man was furious after hearing what the boy said. He stepped forward and tried to pull him, cursing, "You little bastard, you think Prince Huai's Mansion is a place where you can come and go as you please.
Come back with me, maybe you can have a good life, otherwise your dying mother will wait for death."
As soon as Su Yue heard King Huai, she immediately winked at Hongyu. Hongyu understood immediately, raised her foot, kicked the slightly fat man away, and held the boy tightly in her hand.
"Who are you in Prince Huai's Mansion?"
Su Yue suddenly let out a cold air and asked in a cold voice.
The slightly plump man stumbled a few times before he could steady himself. He could feel the cold air coming from Su Yueye even from a few steps away. His pupils shrank involuntarily, but he quickly calmed down, squinting at Su Yueye and said proudly, "I'm the steward of Huaiwang Mansion. So, are you scared? If you are, just hand the boy over to me. Otherwise, I'll go back and tell Prince Huai, and you'll be in trouble."
Su Yue sneered, "You'd better go and call Prince Huai over. I want to see what he can do to me."
