Chapter 869: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Daughter 11
Mrs. Dong became interested after hearing this. One is vicious, the other is cowardly. No matter which one she marries, there will be unrest in the harem. How great!
Mrs. Dong frowned and scolded, "You are a matchmaker, how can you slander the girl's reputation like this? If it gets out, the girl's life will be ruined. It's nothing but groundless gossip. Don't say it again in the future."
"I like the girl from the Ji family better. I asked a master to calculate it. Yun Ye is suitable for a girl with this kind of fate. Marrying her will definitely bring prosperity to the family!"
Matchmaker Liu was sweating all over her forehead. She had already made her words so clearly. From what the Duke's wife said, she probably didn't want to find a good marriage for the prince.
It turns out that none of the wealthy families are simple. Everyone outside praises that the Duchess loves the Crown Prince more than her own son, but it turns out to be false.
"Madam, you are right. I have learned your lesson! I also understand what you mean. I will do my best to find a good marriage for the prince."
Madam Dong smiled with satisfaction, "We can't just decide casually. We still need to look around and ask more questions. I will also attend a few more banquets to let the whole Shangjing City know that I have carefully selected a marriage for Ye'er."
After receiving the reward money, matchmaker Liu naturally wanted to spread the word that the Duchess's wife worked hard for the prince and cared about him more than his own mother.
The Duke returned home and went straight to the main courtyard.
Mrs. Dong immediately went over and helped the master take off his official uniform and change into comfortable clothes for home.
Yun Ting was so anxious that his mouth was covered with blisters. He wiped his face carelessly, handed the hot towel to his wife, and said anxiously:
"Okay, that's all, stop struggling! How is Ye'er doing today? Is he still unconscious? Does he have a fever? What did the doctor say?"
The two of them went to the prince's Yuhuayuan one after the other.
Mrs. Dong had to jog all the way to barely keep up with her tall husband. It had always been like this over the years. Normally, he was quite considerate to her, but once the matter of the Crown Prince was involved, the Duke's Mansion would be completely concerned about the son they had just given birth to.
They were a couple who got married later in life. The Duke gave all his true love to his first wife who died in childbirth. No matter how well she did, she could never be better than a dead person!
No matter how smart and sensible her son is, the position of crown prince belongs to Yun Ye. How can she be willing to accept this!
Even if it's for her son, she has to fight hard and can't just accept her fate.
Yuhua Courtyard is the best courtyard in the Duke's Mansion. Except that it is slightly smaller than the main courtyard, the courtyard layout, plants, flowers, utensils and ornaments are even more exquisite and luxurious than the main courtyard.
Madam Dong wanted to send all the good things to the prince, and fulfill his every request. Even raising a daughter was not as precious as this, so she raised the prince to be ignorant and unable to endure any hardship or grievance, let alone make any achievements.
The young master was lying on the bed, with five or six maids serving him in the room, seven or eight servants waiting outside, and four wet nurses who had served him since childhood busying around, making the room very lively.
Seeing the Duke coming, everyone put down their work and saluted together.
Yun Ting normally hated to see his son being spoiled like this, but now that his son was in a coma, he was very satisfied with how well these people were serving him.
"If even a word of the prince's coma is leaked out, everyone in the courtyard will be dead! You will all be rewarded for serving well, so get busy!"
Mrs. Dong was so tired that she was panting as she followed, and the phoenix hairpin on her head was even crooked.
Yun Ting supported Feng Chai and took his wife's hand into the house. "My wife, you have worked hard these days. You have to take care of everything inside and outside, and take care of this useless thing! I didn't owe him anything, but I don't know who you fainted for! Did you make a mistake again and are too embarrassed to see me?"
Yun Ting reached out and felt Yun Ye's pulse, which was strong, but the person was unconscious.
Madam Dong knew that although the Duke said he disliked her, he was actually more anxious than anyone else. She had worked diligently for sixteen years, sowing discord and making the Crown Prince crooked, but the Duke still loved him more.
Mrs. Dong took out a handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes, choking with sobs, "What are you talking about, Master? Ye'er is the most filial. He always remembers to bring me a hairpin when he goes out to gamble. How could he be willing to pretend to be sick and make me anxious?"
Yun Ting had a bad temper and wanted to hit someone instantly. "He dares to go out and gamble on football? When he wakes up, I'll show you how I'll deal with him! What a wretch!"
Madam Dong naturally wanted to protect the prince. She sat beside the prince's bed and glared at the Duke, "Ye'er is almost dead, and the master still wants to beat him. Why not just kill me first!"
"He knew how to smile at me when he was so young. He was weak and sickly since he was young. It was not easy to raise him to this age. It's all your fault! You always beat and scold him. The child is frightened by you."
"He just didn't come home all night and didn't attend the flower-viewing banquet. What's the big deal? You rushed into the yard to deal with him, and you must have been scared to death! He has been taking life-saving pills to keep himself alive these days, and the maids and nurses have been turning him over, cleaning him, and massaging him every day. He looks like he is asleep."
Mrs. Dong reached out to touch Yun Ye's face. His complexion was rosy and there was no sign of death at all.
Could Master Lingbao be lying to her? He said he could kill people, but why was he just unconscious and not dying?
She had no choice. When she first entered the mansion, the Duke was wary of her, so she could only pretend to be kind. Later, when the Prince grew up, the Duke really believed her and loved him wholeheartedly. Even after she had her own child, the Duke still trusted her.
There are so many people in the mansion, it is very difficult to kill the prince without leaving any traces. She doesn't want to get herself involved, so in the end she can only seek help from ghosts and gods, and tried to kill Yun Ye with witchcraft.
Although he didn't die, Master Lingbao still has some abilities. If Yun Ye continues to lie like this, the Duke can't let a living dead inherit the Duke's Mansion, right?
Mrs. Dong wiped away the tears that she had forced out, tucked Yun Ye’s bedding into place, and showed her loving motherly heart.
"Fortunately, the news in the mansion cannot be spread out, and the outside world does not know that the prince is in such a state. Master Lingbao has already calculated and said that a wedding is the best way. As long as he finds a woman with a matching fate to marry, Ye'er will definitely wake up!"
She wanted to spread the news that the prince was in a coma, but unfortunately the Duke was very strict and there were many more guards in the mansion, so she didn't dare to spread the news against the Duke's wishes.
Yun Ting was most afraid of his wife crying. His original wife was the daughter of a military general, and was straightforward and bright. However, Mrs. Dong had a soft personality, and he was careless and had no idea how to coax her.
"Okay, okay! Don't cry, I'll do whatever you say! After all, my daughter-in-law is married into the family, she will listen to your instructions, so you can find the one you want."
Yun Ting sighed, "But Ye'er's condition is like this. Isn't it harmful to the girl? The imperial doctors in the palace are useless. I'm already trying to find famous doctors all over the world. The marriage should be arranged in advance. We have to wait until Ye'er wakes up before getting married."
"If there is any accident..."
Madam Dong glared, "What kind of accident could there be? Ye'er will definitely wake up! To bring good luck, she must marry in early. For those girls from small families, marrying into the Duke's Mansion is considered high-class for them. If they marry in, they will be the precious consort of the Crown Prince. They would be eager for that."
"Anyway, I don't care. My Ye'er must get married. I can't let him be alone."
