"Princess Emperor, help me!"
Yingge was holding a bundle in her arms and knelt down in front of Yu Jinshu with a thud.
Yu Jinshu looked puzzled: "What's wrong with you?"
Yingge cried bitterly, "Princess Di, I should have come to disturb you right after you and the Crown Prince got married, but I simply can't go on like this."
After all, they were old acquaintances. Feng Yu helped Yingge up and asked, "What happened?"
Yingge cried, "A few days ago, an old man came. He was over seventy years old. He took a liking to me at first sight and even discussed with my mother about redeeming me and making me his concubine. My mother asked him for five thousand taels of silver, and he has already gone home to get it. He plans to take me away today. I heard that more than twenty concubines in this old man's house have died. If I were to be bought by him, wouldn't I be dead too? Woo... Prince, Princess, I really have no other choice. I think you are the only ones who can save me."
Yu Jinshu asked, "Then how do you want us to save you?"
Seeing that Di Ji had relented, Ying Ge's beautiful eyes immediately lit up. She handed over her bundle and said excitedly, "This is the money I saved at Baihua Tower. Including the jewelry, it's over three thousand taels. Di Ji, Your Highness, I am willing to enter the Liang Wang Mansion and serve you and Your Highness as a slave and concubine."
Yu Jinshu thought to herself that Yingge was very clever. The first person she knelt down to was not Feng Yu, but her. She had an advantage over Feng Yu's wife. If she didn't agree, she would be standing by and watching someone die, and would also be branded as stingy and jealous.
If Yingge was rescued and taken into the mansion as a slave or concubine, given Feng Yu and Yingge's long-standing friendship, who knows what kind of trouble might arise.
Now her relationship with Feng Yu is not stable yet. Feng Yu is not convinced with her and is angry that their marriage was arranged by the emperor. He might get close to Yingge just to deliberately irritate her.
Of course, she would rather believe that Feng Yu was not such a person.
But no matter what, she would not let Yingge enter Prince Liang's Mansion.
She was about to speak when she heard Feng Yu say, "Who is that old man? Take this prince to see him."
Yu Jinshu decided not to speak for the time being. She wanted to see how Feng Yu would handle it.
Yingge was anxious: "Sir, that old man is not only rich, but also has a strong background. I heard that his son-in-law is a high-ranking official in the court."
Feng Yu laughed. "Your son-in-law is a high-ranking official in the imperial court. This old man has really embarrassed his son-in-law. Just tell me. I will make the decision for you and will not let that old man buy you off."
Yingge was extremely anxious when she saw Feng Yu didn't mention her entry into Prince Liang's mansion. "My Lord, I'm afraid that old man will take revenge. My Lord, Princess, please accept me. I will serve you like a slave for the rest of my life."
Feng Yu said, "Even the servants in my mansion are not made to work like slaves. They work in the Liang Wang Mansion, they can eat and sleep, and they also receive a monthly salary. But being a servant in the mansion is not easy. You have girls to wait on you in Baihua Tower, and you are definitely not able to handle the affairs of the mansion. Why not let me drive that old man away for you, so that you can be safe and worry-free."
Yingge looked disappointed.
Seeing Yingge remained silent, Feng Yu continued, "If you don't want to stay in Baihua Tower anymore..."
Yingge raised her head and looked at Feng Yu expectantly.
Feng Yu: "Then I will redeem you. You can live on your own and find a good match in the future."
Yu Jinshu looked at Feng Yu and felt particularly good.
She originally thought that Feng Yu would agree to Yingge out of softness and take Yingge into his mansion, but she didn't expect that he would actually reject Yingge.
She could also see that Yingge's real purpose was to enter Prince Liang's mansion and become Feng Yu's concubine.
Yingge was so anxious that tears came to her eyes.
Feng Yu said, "Yingge, are you afraid to tell me the old man's name? Fine, if you don't, I'll go to Baihua Tower and ask him. Then the old man won't blame you."
As he spoke, he got into the carriage.
Yu Jinshu said to Yingge, "Miss Yingge, the Crown Prince will resolve this matter for you, so don't worry. If the Crown Prince can't solve it, I, the Imperial Princess, will also help you solve it. You must know that I, the Imperial Princess, can summon the Snake King."
When Yingge heard what Yu Jinshu said, she realized how terrifying Princess Rouhua was.
Previously, Princess Rouhua had been very kind and amiable every time she returned to Baihua Tower, which made her forget that Princess Rouhua had summoned the Snake King to kill 60,000 Beiyue soldiers. She even thought that Princess Rouhua was a woman who was easy to get along with and easy to control.
Yu Jinshu got on the carriage and looked at Yingge. "Miss Yingge, let's go! This imperial princess and the prince will go together to seek justice for you. This imperial princess is the emperor's guest of honor. Even this imperial princess's dowry was prepared by the emperor. Don't worry, if the prince can't help you solve the problem, this imperial princess will definitely help you solve it."
When Yingge heard this, she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Yes! How could she not have cared that Princess Rouhua's dowry was prepared by the Emperor?
There were hundreds of people carrying the dowry, and the street was ten miles long, with no end in sight.
If she really entered Prince Liang's Mansion in the future, what would she use to fight against Princess Rouhua?
Yingge felt her own recklessness and quickly got on the carriage without saying a word.
When the carriage arrived at Baihua Tower, Yingge got out and pointed at the old man who had gotten off the carriage in front of her and exclaimed in surprise, "That's him."
Yingge wanted to be Feng Yu's concubine, but she didn't dare to lie. What she said about the old man wanting to buy her as a concubine was true.
Feng Yu's follower Dashi recognized the old man as soon as he saw him, and he began to describe the situation in detail.
More than twenty concubines had indeed died in this old man's house.
The old man's name was Zhang Quanfu. He was originally a merchant with a wealthy family. Later, he spent money to buy himself an official position. It was a sinecure, but he made a lot of money from it.
Zhang Quanfu married his daughter to a scholar and sponsored his son-in-law to take the imperial examination. However, his son-in-law failed the exam, so he spent a lot of money to buy him an official position.
His son-in-law was a flatterer and rose to prominence, becoming a third-rank official.
However, his son-in-law is also a lustful man. Since he became a third-rank official, he has taken five concubines at home, often making chaos in the house.
After Dashi finished speaking, Zhang Quanfu saw Yingge and a smile spread across his old face as he walked towards her. "Miss Yingge, I have brought you five thousand taels of silver. You must go home with me today."
Feng Yu was about to show up when Yu Jinshu pulled him and she walked in front of Yingge.
When Zhang Quanlian saw Yu Jinshu, his old face froze, his mouth opened, and saliva was about to flow out. "Which pavilion is this girl from? She is so stunningly beautiful. I have seen countless women, but this is the first time I have seen such a beautiful woman."
He also reached out his hand, intending to touch Yu Jinshu's face.
Seeing this, Feng Yu raised his foot and kicked him, "Shameless old man..."
Yu Jinshu grabbed Feng Yu and said, "He's old and can't withstand your kick. If you kick him to death, it will be your fault."
Feng Yu frowned: "But he..."
Yu Jinshu smiled coldly: "I have my own way to deal with him."
