Chapter 253 Anyone who dares to bully him must be prepared to bear the consequences!
Considering that Ye Runan had never eaten hotpot at Shanhaixuan, Yun Qingshi decided to have dinner at Shanhaixuan, hoping to meet Changshun by the way.
They set off quite early this time, so Ye Runan had not arrived yet when they arrived.
Now Yun Qingshi no longer needs to hide his identity. No one would dare to say anything even if he was aboveboard, so he wore a refreshing moon-white brocade robe today. The soft color of the fabric made his skin look even whiter and cleaner. Coupled with his good looks with red lips and white teeth, he looked like a young master who was respected by everyone.
He no longer had to get off the carriage in advance to act as a guard, but was directly carried out of the carriage by Xiao Jiwu.
However, Xiao Jiwu is now the crown prince, and in order to avoid many troubles, he did not bring any entourage with him on this trip. Only secret guards followed him in the dark, which was considered an incognito tour to conceal his identity.
Just because of those unusual eyes, someone recognized him as soon as he got off the carriage.
Therefore, Yun Qingshi and Xiao Jiwu did not stay outside for long. They went into Shanhaixuan as soon as possible, and the eunuch in charge of driving the carriage quickly drove the carriage into the alley.
Changshun had been waiting at the door long ago. Seeing the two of them, he hurried forward to greet them: "Wang, two distinguished guests, please come upstairs."
Changshun was about to call him "Prince" out of habit, but fortunately he reacted in time and changed his words.
Yun Qingshi smiled and replied, "Okay."
The first floor of Shanhaixuan is the lobby, and the second floor has special private rooms.
The business here is getting better and better now. It’s just noon and the building is almost full.
However, since the host Yun Qingshi was coming, he naturally reserved a private room in advance.
Changshun quickly welcomed the two masters into the private room, and then began to run around nervously, serving tea and water: "Your Highness, have some tea. Eleventh Master, have some tea."
Yun Qingshi couldn't bear to see Changshun's hard work go to waste, so he nodded and took a sip of the tea before speaking: "Stop busying yourself and tell me, how have you been here these past few days? Has anyone bullied you? Why are you the one welcoming guests?"
He had always been worried that Changshun would not be able to fit in here. Seeing Changshun welcoming guests at the door today, he became even more worried. He had asked Changshun to come here as a deputy manager, not a handyman, and he was not someone who could be bullied.
Chang Shun knew Yun Qingshi had misunderstood when he heard this, and he quickly replied, "Don't worry, sir. I've been doing fine these past few days. No one has bullied me. They know I was sent by the master, and they all respect me. It was my own request to greet His Highness and sir at the door. I went there on purpose because I knew the masters were coming. No one was bullying me."
Yun Qingshi felt relieved when he heard this. He nodded slightly and said with a smile, "That's good. Work hard. If you do well, I'll give you a raise."
Chang Shun also nodded with a smile upon hearing this: "Yes, thank you, sir."
While Yun Qingshi and Changshun were talking, Ye Runan was brought into the private room by a waiter.
As soon as he entered the private room, he gently waved his folding fan and said, "Changshun, Changshun, you only care about welcoming your two masters and don't care about me?"
When Changshun heard this, he was stunned and didn't know what to say.
Yun Qingshi spoke up at the right time to save the situation: "Brother, please stop teasing him. Changshun doesn't stand being teased."
Upon hearing this, Ye Runan smiled and found a seat to sit down. He indeed stopped teasing Changshun and said, "I've heard that there's a restaurant like this in Beijing. I didn't expect it to be opened by Xiao Eleven. I'm in for a treat today."
Yun Qingshi quickly responded, "It's not as magical as people say, but it should taste okay. I'll let you try it later."
While the two were talking, Changshun poured tea for Ye Runan.
Yun Qingshi then showed the menu to Ye Runan, and then the three of them each ordered a few dishes they wanted to eat.
Changshun got the ordered list and went downstairs to prepare.
It was at this moment that Yun Qingshi suddenly heard a man's voice coming from downstairs.
"The fate of a star of disaster... unknown..."
It wasn't that Yun Qingshi was eavesdropping on people's conversations for no reason, but the words that the other person said were really harsh. After all, he had heard these words too many times.
Ye Runan and Xiao Jiwu, who were originally talking, fell silent at this moment, obviously having heard each other's voices.
The man downstairs continued, his voice was not quiet, but he did not seem to be shy at all, and his speech sounded a little slurred, as if he was drunk.
"How can a man born with strange eyes and such a fate be qualified to be the crown prince? I think our lives will be difficult from now on..."
Then the man's companion said anxiously, "Don't say anything, or someone might hear you."
Unexpectedly, after his companions' persuasion, the man's voice became even louder: "So what if he heard it! I'm telling the truth!"
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi frowned suddenly when he was sure that the other party was talking about Xiao Jiwu.
He subconsciously wanted to go downstairs to argue, but before he could get up, a hand was on his shoulder.
It was Xiao Jiwu who stopped him from taking action.
Xiao Jiwu then said in a cold voice: "Qingqing, it's just a barking dog. Just kill it later. Don't dirty your hands."
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi lowered his eyes and finally suppressed his anger for the time being.
It is indeed not appropriate to go down now. If more people follow the crowd, it will be useless for him to argue. It would be a relief to beat them up openly, but if someone recognizes that he is someone close to Xiao Jiwu, he will probably suffer more criticism.
In the end, Yun Qingshi planned to have his men drive the man out and then find another opportunity to take action.
But before he could do anything, another voice was heard downstairs.
"So what if they have heterochromia? Yuquan County was hit by a disaster. If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's intervention, who knows how many people would have died! If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suppressing the enemy, would the people be able to live in peace today?"
"I just can't stand people like you. You're simply blind! Otherwise, how could you be so confused about right and wrong?"
Once there is a first person taking the lead, there will be a second person to step forward.
"Exactly. Let's not talk about the distant past, let's just talk about the recent past. Since the Crown Prince came to the court, everything he has done has been good."
"Weren't those corrupt officials who exploited the people dealt with by the Crown Prince himself?"
"What do you mean by calamity or bad luck? I think you are just blinded by greed and can't see the truth."
The man was immediately speechless. He just lowered his head to eat and didn't dare to say anything else.
But the crowd did not let him go.
Soon someone took the lead and spoke again: "What are you eating? You still have the nerve to eat? Get out of here!"
"That's right, go away and stop being an eyesore here."
"Go away..."
Except for those who never spoke, the rest of the people said the same thing. In the end, that person couldn't stay any longer and ran away in shame.
In the private room upstairs, Yun Qingshi slowly loosened his clenched fists upon hearing this, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, finally not everyone is unable to distinguish between right and wrong, and finally someone sees Xiao Jiwu's achievements.
But maybe, it wasn't that no one stood on Xiao Jiwu's side, but because of the person on the throne, no one dared to do so.
However, everything is moving in the right direction anyway.
But, that person dared to say that to Xiao Jiwu, he must not be let off easily!
Yun Qingshi: "Shadow One."
Hearing the sound, Ying Yi, who had been waiting outside, quickly entered the private room.
Yun Qingshi immediately spoke up, "Go and help me beat up that disrespectful idiot. Just beat him for that foul mouth. I'll keep him speechless for three days! Send him to the Ministry of Justice after you've beaten him. Tell them to deal with him strictly according to the crime of disrespecting the Crown Prince. The harsher the punishment, the better. It would be best if we could make an example of him and warn the rest. I wonder who would dare to talk nonsense again in the future!"
Anyone who dares to bully him must be prepared to bear the consequences!
If Xiao Jiwu hadn't forbidden him, he would definitely go there himself!
