Chapter 259 He Yunyao Returns Home

He Yunyao's guess was right. He Yong was blocked by the thugs around the brothel owner before he even saw her.

"You are so brave!" He Yong suddenly showed his authority, "Do you know who I am?"

The thug didn't buy it, "Your Excellency, there's no need to show off here. Even if the prince from the palace came today, I would still say the same thing."

Then the thug pointed around and said, "Go ask around yourself, everyone in this room has rights."

Hearing this, He Yong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, everyone who came here had some power.

Besides, He Yong himself didn't want the other party to know his identity.

He paused and lowered his voice: "Please tell your mother that I really like that girl and want to redeem her."

The thug still refused to give in: "Don't even think about it, sir. There is no precedent for this here."

He Yong spent half a day talking to the thug, saying all sorts of nice things and bad things to him, but he still didn't see the brothel owner.

I had to return home in disappointment.

But not long after, the brothel owner received a letter from her master, asking her to sell the woman to He Yong.

Although it broke the rules, for the madam, the master's words were the rules.

He immediately stood up and went to the private room where He Yong had been waiting.

At this time, He Yong was standing outside the door, not daring to go in, not knowing how to face his daughter. However, he saw the madam and her people walking hurriedly towards him.

At first He Yong was a little scared. He even thought that they had discovered his identity and were going to take Yun Yao away and hide her.

But the next sentence the madam said saved his heart: "I heard that Master He is very interested in this girl. I think if Master is willing to spend some money, it is possible."

Upon hearing this, He Yong immediately became excited and looked at the madam with sparkling eyes: "How much do you need? Just tell me, Mom."

The madam just raised a finger and said nothing.

He Yong knew that she would need a lot, so he naturally guessed higher: "One thousand taels? Don't worry, mom, I'll prepare it right away."

Unexpectedly, the madam shook her head and said, "Ten thousand taels."

He Yong's eyes widened immediately. Although he was a little greedy, ten thousand taels was indeed a bit too much. This would empty out all his family assets.

The madam did not stop talking, but continued, "Ten thousand taels of silver."

In their line of work, naturally no one wants banknotes.

It would be inappropriate if someone found something when I went to the money shop to exchange silver.

He Yong opened his mouth again and again, but finally just nodded: "Okay, I'll send someone back to get it."

"Please prepare a piece of clothing for her, mother."

The madam knew that Minister He was determined to take the girl away, so she prepared everything early and ordered the thugs beside her to pass the things over.

When He Yong saw the clothes that had been prepared long ago, his expression froze. He seemed to have fallen into someone else's trap.

But now that it had come to this, He Yong didn't have time to think about it anymore. He turned around, picked up his clothes and went inside.

But when he saw He Yunyao lying huddled on the bed, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

What on earth had my daughter gone through in the past two days to become like this?

In the past, she was always the most lively.

He Yong didn't know how he brought He Yunyao back home in a daze.

But all the servants in the mansion knew that the master had carried a woman down from the car and brought her directly to Lin's yard.

As soon as Lin saw He Yunyao, he went crazy.

Especially when seeing He Yunyao's hopeless eyes and the scars all over her body, Lin even thought of how she was tortured.

But she didn't even dare to ask whether He Yunyao was still a virgin.

She didn't dare, for she was afraid of hurting Yun Yao's self-esteem; she didn't dare, for she was afraid of hurting her own heart.

Lin held He Yunyao in her arms, tears streaming down her face.

All he could say was angrily curse at Zhou: "Zhou, I want her to die!"

After saying this, he didn't care that He Yunyao was still beside him, and walked to the side and knelt in front of Minister He: "Master, you must avenge our Yunyao."

He Yong glanced at He Yunyao, raised his finger to his lips, and signaled her to be quiet.

He will definitely avenge his daughter.

Zhou, who was at the Duke of Anguo's Mansion at the time, naturally also learned the news.

He immediately ignored the strange looks from the people around him and laughed loudly: "Lin, He Yunyao, now you have also suffered retribution."

Zhou knew that the He and Lin families were the most proud. It would be more reassuring for them to let their daughter die outside rather than return home in such humiliation.

The news spread throughout the capital on the next day.

It was said that Minister He brought a young woman home from outside late at night, and without caring about the mistress of the house, he took the woman directly to Lin's yard.

He bluntly said that he wanted to make the woman his concubine.

Lin went crazy in the yard at that time. I heard that the woman's surname was Zhou.

People around spread the rumor in a very detailed way, and it was even said that Lin wanted Zhou to die.

In the next few days, Lin was instructed by others in the capital and almost dared not raise his head.

She couldn't rush up to explain to others that it was her daughter.

I could only swallow my anger and just stay at home.

Lin Hecheng, of course, also heard the crazy talk outside, so after court that day he took the initiative to walk up to He Yong and question him.

"Did my brother-in-law really bring a woman to my sister's yard late at night?"

He Yong glanced at him but didn't intend to pay any attention to him.

Lin Hecheng got to his position on his own, but He Yong found that he had become increasingly disrespectful to him recently.

Moreover, she had been secretly dating the Third Prince many times behind my back, and she seemed to be completely ignoring me.

Thinking of this, I felt even more dissatisfied with him.

So he stopped answering him.

Seeing that He Yong didn't say anything, Lin Hecheng felt that he was feeling guilty.

I am now at the same official rank as him. Although I relied on him for support in the past, I have also made sacrifices over the years.

What's more, the Third Prince now values ​​him more than He Yong.

Thinking of this, Lin Hecheng's tone became a little tougher: "Brother-in-law, my sister married into your He Mansion as a concubine for you. Now that you have become rich, don't do anything to let my sister down."

He Yong got angry when he heard this, and his tone became worse: "Whether your family is doing this for me or for my official position, you know it in your heart."

"Besides, isn't it abnormal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?"

"Master Lin, are you only sticking with that bitch Zhou and not willing to take a concubine? From what I know, my uncle has quite a few concubines."
