Chapter 317 The Princess of the Dandy World Just Wants to Show Off 13
Lanxinyuan is the largest courtyard in the backyard. According to the rules, it should be reserved for Zhengfu.
But at that time, the original owner doted on Lu Feiyu and had no husband, so she gave him this courtyard to live in and ordered people to renovate it. There were small bridges, flowing water, and clusters of flowers, and the scenery was extremely beautiful along the way.
The main house is even more exquisite and magnificent.
Xie Wuyu's gaze swept across the high roof and landed on the dust-free stone steps, and he couldn't help but twitched his lips.
Mingnan noticed that the atmosphere around him was a little strange and glanced at him secretly.
Xie Wuyu also happened to be looking over there, and when their eyes met, Xie Wuyu stared at her dimly, saying in an ambiguous tone, "The king really dotes on his concubine."
Mingnan was about to say something but stopped himself. While no one was paying attention, he secretly stretched out two fingers, pinched his sleeve, and gently pulled it.
Xie Wuyu raised his eyebrows slightly, "What?"
Mingnan came closer and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "That was in the past. Don't take it to heart. I will definitely do what I promised you."
"Who cares?"
Xie Wu Yu sneered but did not pull his sleeves back.
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the two thin white fingers. His face remained expressionless, but he felt inexplicably happy in his heart.
Mingnan did exactly what he promised.
She said she would send all the people in the backyard away, and she really did it. She also wrote down the progress and the whole story and sent it to the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion for him to see.
The first group to be sent away were Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhao.
Mr. Zhao tried to poison Lu Feiyu, but Mr. Liu saw it and pretended not to know. He took advantage of the situation and gave the bowl of red date soup to Lu Feiyu.
When the truth was revealed, Liu Fulang believed that he would be vindicated, so he concealed the truth on purpose and went to stay in the dungeon. He thought that by using a little self-torture, he believed that when Mingnan found out the truth, he would definitely feel sorry for him, and wouldn't his position be secure?
Unexpectedly, Mingnan found out everything, so he and Mr. Zhao were both beaten with a stick and kicked out.
Later, two more people secretly sent messages to the palace, but were discovered by Mingnan. She did not let anyone intercept the secret letter, but only said that they were acting sneakily and had ulterior motives, and sent them far away to the manor, never to return to the palace in this life.
As for whether they would run away or where they would run to, she didn't care.
As long as it's not in her yard, it's fine.
Some people got sick for unknown reasons and infected two people.
Mingnan immediately ordered them to be packed up and sent to the farm, where the doctor would treat them properly and they would talk about it when they were cured.
In just half a year, seven of them had been sent away. So, including Lu Feiyu, there were still eight people in the backyard.
But these eight were cautious and not so easy to get rid of. Mingnan couldn't make any move either, as it would be too conspicuous and might alarm Feng Jun, and there would be arguments too, so he could only take it slow.
But this is enough for Xie Wuyou.
What he wanted was Mingnan's attitude.
If you make a promise and do it, you have surpassed many people.
Thinking of this, Xie Wuyu's unhappiness immediately faded away.
Du Yao led the way. He pushed open the door and entered the inner room first, calling out, "Master, the king and his wife are here to see you."
Mingnan stepped over the threshold, looked up and glanced inside, but he couldn't see anything through the screen and could only hear a suppressed cough coming from inside.
It sounds low and muffled, and makes the listener feel uncomfortable in the throat.
Mingnan was about to speak when Lu Feiyu laughed weakly at himself, "Don't lie to me. How could the Queen come to see me... She must have forgotten who I am... cough cough cough cough..."
That mournful tone of voice truly breaks one's heart and brings tears to one's eyes.
Even if I didn't see him, I could imagine how sick and broken he looked at that moment.
It's this acting that's a bit embarrassing.
Du Yao also cooperated and said: "It's true! Master, the king is really here!"
Lu Feiyu: "No, I don't believe it. Du Yao, don't comfort me. She just married her husband and they are inseparable. Do you think she will treat him the same way she treats me?"
"master……"
Mingnan: “…”
She silently clenched her toes in her embroidered shoes.
Xie Wuyou gently poked her lower back from behind, which gave Mingnan a startle.
She turned around in confusion, [Why are you poking me? ]
Xie Wuyu raised his chin towards the inner room and said, "They're calling you, come in quickly."
Mingnan: “…”
She glanced at him helplessly, slapped his dishonest hands, turned back and covered her lips with her hands, and coughed lightly and deliberately, "Ahem——"
The inner room suddenly became quiet.
Mingnan then walked around the screen leisurely, opened the pearl curtain and walked in and said, "The most taboo thing when you are sick is to worry. Lu Feiyu, you don't love yourself, so who do you expect to love you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of everyone present changed.
Lu Feiyu leaned on the bed, his already pale face turning completely pale.
He stared at Mingnan with his watery eyes in disbelief, as if he didn't know her.
Xie Wu Yu was also a little surprised. He thought Ming Nan would at least say a few words of comfort to calm the person, but he didn't expect that she was too lazy to even save face.
He subconsciously looked at the legendary Lu Cefu who was "vomiting blood".
Lu Feiyu suddenly came to his senses, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and started coughing violently. This time it was a heart-wrenching cough, and it felt like his lungs would be coughed out in the next moment.
Du Yao came back to his senses and rushed to the bedside to pat his back to calm him down. Tears welled up in his eyes and he said, "Master, please go slowly. Don't be impatient. Don't be impatient."
He turned to look at Mingnan, unable to suppress his emotions, with a bit of resentment in his eyes, "Lord, aren't you being too cruel? How has your husband wronged you that you have to humiliate him like this?"
"Is telling the truth a humiliation?" Mingnan didn't care about his disrespect and stared at Lu Feiyu with his beautiful and cold eyes.
Lu Feiyu's long eyelashes drooped and trembled as he moved.
“Lord…”
He took a deep breath, finally suppressing the itching in his throat. He slowly lifted his eyelids, revealing red eyes filled with sadness and unwillingness. "Just because I went to him without permission and asked him to cancel the engagement, you hate me so much?"
He pointed his pale finger at Xie Wuyu.
Xie Wu Yu raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
He was afraid that if he opened his mouth again, he would anger the staggering sidekick to death.
Mingnan shook his head. "No, I don't hate you. I just hate people who think they are smart."
She shifted her gaze from Lu Feiyu to the exquisitely carved bed frame. "Just because I don't tell you something doesn't mean I don't know it. In the last poisoning case, do you dare to say that you didn't help behind it?"
Lu Feiyu's eyes suddenly widened, and a trace of panic flashed across his face.
"If you use this trick once, I'll just turn a blind eye. But if you use it twice, it's a bit too boring."
Without waiting for him to explain, Mingnan suddenly asked Xie Wuyu, "What does Wang Fu think of this room?"
