Chapter 6 The Regent Rebelled
Diao Si retracted his foot, his eyes gleaming with a hint of brilliance. He leaned over, stared at Shu Yan for a moment, and twirled his fingers. "Ten million, or no deal."
"Okay, I'll come to you with 10 million within three days."
Diaosi made an OK gesture.
Shu Yan went downstairs and was calculating how much money she could earn after completing the remaining tasks when a young man in a suit and shirt came towards her.
"Yanyan." He quickened his pace slightly, his voice tinged with a hint of surprise. "Where have you been? Did you see the job posting I sent you?"
This is Zhou Chu's most capable assistant, Wei Min, with whom she has always had a good relationship.
His parents died early and she was also an orphan, so they recognized each other as siblings and took care of each other.
He has a strong business acumen and is not only a capable assistant but also Zhou Chu's brain trust. Without him, Zhou Chu's IQ would drop by half.
Shu Yan thought about this and said with a smile: "I don't want to work anymore. I plan to start my own company."
Wei Min was slightly surprised: "Are you still in the clothing industry?"
"Yeah." Shu Yan smiled. Seeing that there were many people on the first floor, she leaned in and whispered, "Brother, if I offered you a higher salary, would you consider coming over?"
Wei Min was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, she had already stepped away: "Don't worry, brother, think about it first, I'll leave first today."
She waved and walked out of the company's glass door.
Shu Yan returned home. She still had tens of thousands of dollars left from her last house purchase, so she ordered a delicious meal of crayfish, ate it all by herself, washed up, and went to bed.
The next day, Shu Yan got up in the morning and had breakfast. Since she had no job and was a vagrant, she called the system to enter the plot and play.
"Hongying, is he still crawling?" Princess Ning Ruyue was asking another maid in the Ning Mansion.
"Yes," Hongying wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. "I crawled for a whole day and night... The horse woke up several times, and was knocked unconscious by the prince, no, Master He..."
"More and more people are watching, and there are people selling sunflower seeds and peanuts in front."
Ning Ruyue's face didn't look good. She turned to look at Shu Yan and said, "Isn't he trying to roast me like a fire?"
Did he hate her so much? Was he willing to lose face and force her to return home?
"Miss, Miss," another servant hurriedly asked for an audience. "Oh no! Master He has crawled to the front door... and ordered you to open the door, otherwise he will come in and arrest you!"
"Oh no! Young Master He's men have surrounded the Ning Mansion!" Another person reported, "He's kneeling and crying publicly outside the mansion, saying he knows he's wrong and begging you to give him another chance..."
Shu Yan looked up and saw Ning Ruyue's face turned green.
Isn’t this moral kidnapping?
Geld, does he think he is very affectionate?
"Oh no!" Another person came running in hurriedly: "Master He said that since you haven't responded for so long, he has reason to suspect that you've been kidnapped. If you don't come out to see him within two quarters of an hour, he'll break down the door and come in to rescue you!"
Ning Ruyue couldn't catch her breath and almost fainted.
Her father held military power and had been stationed at the frontier with her mother for years, never returning to the capital. Now she was the only one living in Ning Mansion. If He Gu were to come in, wouldn't she be a fish on his chopping block?
You have to know that she and he are husband and wife. In this situation, even if they report it to the government, the government will not do anything!
How come she hadn't noticed how shameless he was before?!
"What should I do, Luyin, save me, I don't want to go back, I don't want to go back..."
"Okay, okay, don't be anxious, miss." Shu Yan supported the shaky Ning Ruyue and started the story.
He Gu knelt outside the Ning Mansion. He had been crawling all day, his face extremely haggard, and he cried heartbreakingly: "Yue'er, I know I was wrong. I really miss you. Please forgive me once more..."
The onlookers couldn't help but feel sorry for him when they saw him crying so pitifully.
"A real man should kneel to heaven, earth, and his parents. But Master He actually kneeled to a woman. This shows how infatuated he is! Judging from what happened before, Master He must have had his reasons."
"Let's not talk about anything else. Mr. He is so sad, but this Madam He didn't even come out to see him. She is really cold-hearted."
"It takes two to tango. Doesn't Mrs. He have any responsibility for the couple's quarrel? I don't think Mrs. He is a good person either!"
"Yeah, after all, it's inevitable for a couple to have some bumps and bruises. Just bear with it and you'll get through it, right?"
He Gu looked at everyone's reactions and felt proud. After crying for fifteen minutes, he ordered his servants to break down the door.
[Boom, boom, boom, boom——]
He Gu watched the door of the mansion gradually loosen, feeling more and more proud. Haha, Ning Ruyue, did she think she could escape his clutches? When he takes her back and gets the tiger talisman, he'll let her die!
Shu Yan clenched her fists and turned her thoughts into words.
He Gu watched the door of the mansion gradually loosen, and his words became more and more proud. "Haha, Ning Ruyue, do you think you can escape from my grasp? Wait until I take you back and get the tiger talisman, and then I will kill you!"
The crowd who are moved by the beautiful love: "?"
"What? He just said that he wanted his wife to die?"
The crowd suddenly fell silent.
He Gu's face flushed red, and he was so angry that he almost jumped up and down. He suddenly started crying again, gesturing with one hand to order the servants to continue banging on the door.
Ning Ruyue is now his only lifeline. He must bring her back today no matter what, even if it means being criticized!
[At this moment, the palace door opened a crack. He Gu was overjoyed and led two hundred secret guards in to capture the princess.]
Shu Yan changed the title of princess to emperor.
He Gu and his secret guards had just entered the Ning Mansion when they suddenly stopped, turned around in everyone's confused eyes, and walked towards the palace tiredly and fearfully.
Onlookers: “?”
Two hundred secret guards: "?"
......
"When the sun rises, the capital is covered in flowers. The Prince Regent is crawling on the ground. He is not afraid of the mud on his hands. He swears to crawl to his father-in-law's house."
"Ha ha ha ha," the emperor laughed so hard in the palace, "Which bastard wrote this poem? Give her a reward!"
"Oh no!" A eunuch suddenly ran over: "The deposed regent...is leading his troops to attack the palace!"
"What?! This traitor!" The emperor was furious: "Mobilize the Five Army Battalions! The Three Thousand Battalions! The Divine Machine Battalion! The Imperial Guards! The Embroidered Uniform Guards! The Five City Military Command!"
"...Wait, how many soldiers did He Gu bring?"
"Two, two hundred." The father-in-law scratched his head.
