As soon as Yuan Zhao stepped out of the Rong family mansion gate, he collapsed.
"Miss!?"
Wenfeng and Linglong had been waiting anxiously outside, and rushed over as soon as they saw Yuan Zhao.
Seeing Yuan Zhao, who was barely clinging to life after all the ordeal, the two maids' eyes reddened.
“Miss, let’s go back to the General’s Mansion. We’ll ask the General and the Young General to stand up for you. We won’t let this injustice happen to us.”
Linglong said, sobbing.
"……don't want."
Yuan Zhao, barely holding on, said:
"Don't tell Father."
"Miss?!"
Linglong looked at Yuan Zhao disapprovingly. She didn't understand why Yuan Zhao hadn't asked the general for help at this point.
That castrated dog is getting more and more ferocious; if this continues, he'll lose his life.
"Listen to me!"
Yuan Zhao gripped Linglong's hand tightly.
Upon seeing this, Wenfeng quickly said:
"Linglong, don't argue with Miss."
Seeing that Yuan Zhao was truly unwell, Linglong quickly nodded and said, "Okay, okay, okay, Miss, I'll listen to you. I won't tell the General. Please don't say anything, just rest."
As the two maids helped Yuan Zhao up, wondering what to do, Qingzhu personally drove the carriage over:
"The Grand Eunuch instructed me to escort the Crown Prince's wife."
"Get out, you dog slave!"
Linglong roared angrily.
"exquisite!"
Wenfeng shook his head at her, signaling her not to offend Qingzhu.
Seeing that Linglong had calmed down, she nodded to Qingzhu and said:
"Thank you for your trouble, sir."
Qingzhu wasn't angry; she helped the two of them get Yuan Zhao into the carriage.
The carriage was fully equipped with hot water, pastries, and meat porridge.
Yuan Zhao drank some water and ate some food, which made her feel a little better. She glanced at the things and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes.
Rong Ruo's tactic of slapping her and then giving her a piece of candy was truly ingenious. He tormented her to such an extent, and then gave her these things, thinking that it would make up for what he had done.
Perhaps it wasn't to undo what he did, but simply to prevent her from dying!
At this moment, Yuan Zhao regained some energy, and his mind started working faster.
Previously, she was determined to fight Rong Ruo to the death, which enraged Rong Ruo at the time. Clearly, he had not been threatened by anyone.
When he looked up at her, she instantly felt as if death had descended upon her.
At that moment, she thought she really couldn't escape today, but to her surprise, in the end, he still didn't kill her.
He called back the gyrfalcon on her shoulder, then gave her a single word: Get lost!
She just rolled out like that.
Why didn't Rong Ruo kill himself? Was it because he feared his father and brothers?
Yuan Zhao couldn't think of any other reason besides this, but she always felt that it wasn't that simple.
A lot happened today, and there was a lot of commotion at the Rong residence. By the time the carriage returned to the Yongning Prince's residence, night had already fallen.
After dropping them off, Qingzhu drove away. Linglong went up and knocked on the door. This time, no one dared to lock them out.
Yuan Zhao originally wanted to go back to her room to rest, but she didn't expect that as soon as she entered, the housekeeper said to her:
"Madam, the old lady, the Marquis, and the Marquis's son are all waiting for you in the main hall. Please go directly to the main hall upon your return."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhao raised an eyebrow slightly and said calmly:
"Since everyone is waiting for me, let's go."
"Miss?"
Wen Feng looked at Yuan Zhao with concern.
Given Yuan Zhao's current situation, if the people from the Yongning Marquis's residence were to cause further trouble, she would be unable to withstand it no matter what.
"It's alright, I know what I'm doing!"
Yuan Zhao spoke.
After saying that, she pushed away Wenfeng and Linglong's hands, straightened her back, and walked step by step toward the main hall.
