Chapter 104 No Rules
The maids and servants in the courtyard seemed to be doing their own job, but in fact, ever since Chen Yuan came in, their eyes had never left the two of them.
Liu Qingqing was being monitored.
Chen Yuan looked at Liu Qingqing, who nodded almost imperceptibly.
Chen Yuan winked at Taozi.
Taozi immediately said loudly, "My wife likes quietness and wants to have a private chat with you young ladies. You all should go down."
The maids looked at each other, and one of the older maids smiled and said, "Don't worry, young lady. The servants are all waiting outside and will not disturb the lady."
Taozi sneered, her chin held high, her face full of noble coldness, "Are all the servants of the Protectorate Mansion deaf? Our lady ordered you to leave!"
"Qingqing, you are too ignorant of the rules in this courtyard. If you don't know how to discipline someone, let Taozi discipline them for you today."
Shen Yuan's eyes were cold and tired, and her voice was calm.
"Madam, you are joking. We will withdraw now."
Scared to death!
Even if they had a hundred guts, they would not dare to offend the Prime Minister’s wife!
Only then was Shen Yuan satisfied.
After entering the house, Liu Qingqing's face fell. She was too naive, so naive that she couldn't hide her thoughts at all.
"Why are these people monitoring you?" Shen Yuan looked at her.
Liu Qingqing suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of Shen Yuan, "Qingqing wants to ask Sister to help me with something."
Chen Yuan helped her up, "Is it related to Zhinu?"
Liu Qingqing covered her mouth in surprise and asked, "Sister, how did you know?"
Chen Yuan looked at her and sighed, "Qingqing, your eyes can't hide anything."
"What happened? Tell me, please?"
Shen Yuan's voice was soft and gentle.
Liu Qingqing calmed herself down and spoke softly, "Zhi Nu came to see me a few days ago, but was discovered by my father. He ordered someone to beat him up. I'm a little worried about him and want to go see him. Sister, is it okay? Just once is fine."
Shen Yuan looked at her without saying anything.
Liu Qingqing's eyes darkened. "I know this is against the rules. If it makes things difficult for you, then forget it."
Chen Yuan looked at her seriously and said with certainty, "Qingqing, you like Zhinu."
Liu Qingqing did not deny it, but her eyes gradually became redder.
"Have you ever thought about it? You like Zhinu but you have to marry the Fourth Prince. How are you going to spend the rest of your life?"
Liu Qingqing's expression froze.
"If you're willing to fight for it, I can help you. If he's a man of good character, perhaps you could live a life of respect with him. But the Fourth Prince isn't a good match. Have you thought about how you're going to live your life in the future?"
Liu Qingqing's tears flowed down her face. She bit her lip and said nothing.
Shen Yuan held her hand and said, "You still have time to think about it slowly. Anyway, I will help you."
Liu nodded gently, "Okay."
The two talked about something else, and Chen Yuan took Liu Qingqing and walked out.
Before leaving the yard, a nanny came over.
"Excuse me, Madam, where are you and Miss going? If you want to visit the garden, I will go and prepare it right away."
Shen Yuan glanced at her calmly and said, "Slap her face."
Taozi rolled up her sleeves and slapped the old lady in the face.
"The master hasn't even spoken yet, and you're trying to find out where he's going. You really deserve a beating."
Taozi's hand was quite strong, and the old lady's head was knocked off course!
Chen Yuan took Liu Qingqing's hand and said, "This lady and Qingqing are going to leave the house, please get out of my way."
The nanny exchanged glances with the maid.
The latter should go and ask for the Duke of Protectorate's favor.
Chen Yuan had no intention of hiding it from the Duke of Protectorate.
She deliberately slowed down her pace and waited for someone to come over.
Sure enough, before they reached the gate of the Duke of Protectorate's mansion, the Duke of Protectorate came hurriedly.
He first glared at Liu Qingqing fiercely, then looked at Chen Yuan with a flattering face, "I really don't want to spoil your Madam's fun, but my daughter will be entering the Fourth Prince's residence soon, so I think it's better not to let her go out these days."
Shen Yuan's expression changed slightly, and she looked at the Protector of the Country and said calmly, "The Protector of the Country means that it is not safe for Miss Liu to be with this lady."
She and Gu Huailing spent day and night together, and unknowingly, she had developed a similar sense of oppression as him.
The Duke of Huguo wiped his sweat repeatedly and said, "Madam, you are joking."
"Don't worry, Lord Protector of the Country. I will definitely send the person back safely."
The Duke of Huguo's face froze, "This..."
Taozi snorted coldly, "The Duke is saying that you'll only agree if the Prime Minister comes in person?"
Chen Yuan looked at Taozi and scolded her softly, "How come you've picked up the habits of those cunning servants since you came to the Duke's Mansion? You're so unruly."
The master and servant sang the same tune, almost putting the Duke of Protector of the Country on the fire.
The Duke of Huguo gave a forced smile, "Madam, you are joking. I naturally believe you."
After saying that, he gave Liu a warning look and said, "Be smart. It's your blessing that the lady likes you. Don't make her unhappy."
Chen Yuan looked at the flattering attitude of the Duke of Protector of the Country and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It would be better not to have a father like this.
In the backyard of Shen's Jade Shop, Shen Yuan brought Liu Qingqing into Zhinu's room.
She looked at Liu Qingqing and said, "Don't worry, Taozi will be guarding outside."
Liu nodded gently.
She gently pushed the door open and went in. Zhinu's injuries had not healed yet, and he was beaten again, so he was still lying in bed and had not woken up.
The scar on his face has become much lighter. Although it is still a little hideous, it has improved a lot.
Liu Qingqing walked to the bed with very light steps.
She sat down and her hand couldn't help but touch the scar on his face.
Those scars, like brand marks, were imprinted on her heart.
"Are you stupid?" Liu Qingqing finally couldn't help it and spoke softly.
The man on the bed suddenly opened his eyes.
Looking at the woman in front of him in disbelief, he sat up and hugged the woman in his arms without thinking.
After just a moment, he immediately let go, his voice cautious, "I'm sorry, Miss Qingqing, I was abrupt."
Liu Qingqing's eyes were filled with heartache. "Why did you go to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion? Can't you just hide yourself?"
Zhinu looked at her, his dark eyes filled with incomprehensible emotions.
After a while, he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Did it cause you any trouble?"
Liu shook his head slightly.
Zhinu seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage, "Qingqing, are you willing to come with me? Let's leave here and go to a place where no one knows us."
"I know I have nothing now and shouldn't say this, but I swear, I will make you the most noble and happiest woman."
There was sincerity in his eyes.
Unlike before, Liu Qingqing did not reject him immediately.
Instead, he whispered, "Let me think about it."
Zhinu's eyes immediately showed an ecstatic look, "Okay, Qingqing, I will wait for you, no matter how long it takes."
Liu Qingqing was still a little scared, "What if the Fourth Prince knew I eloped and found us and killed you?"
A trace of disdain flashed in Zhinu's eyes, "That good-for-nothing is just born into a good family. If I were born into the royal family, I would find him so dirty that I would find him so dirty even at the sight of him."
When these words came out of his mouth, he was stunned.
It seemed as if there was a kind of pride in his bones that made him born to be superior to Li Ji.
That’s the Fourth Prince. How could a horse slave like him have such an idea?
