Chapter 48 The Prince's Angry Struggle
Haitang immediately bent down and went in to light the lamp. She had never lived in such a place before, and she hit her head as soon as she entered.
Haitang's eyes went black after being hit, and then she realized that not only was the door built so low, but the house itself was so low.
People can't even stand up straight in there.
Haitang searched for a while but couldn't find a place to light the lamp, so she put the lantern she was carrying inside, which illuminated the dilapidated hut.
He bowed again and walked out, walked to Ye Yunchu and saluted: "My Lord, she is indeed not in there."
Ye Yunchu wanted to go inside.
Haitang hurriedly stopped him: "My Lord, I can't even straighten my back if I go in, let alone you. It's better not to go in."
Ye Yunchu seemed not to hear it and he bowed and walked in.
"My Lord, be careful not to hit your head."
Even with Haitang's reminder, Ye Yunchu still hit his head once and his back once.
He may never have been so embarrassed.
Ye Yunchu was really suffocated by the smallness of the place. He took a quick look and saw a tattered wooden bed covered with straw and a curtain hanging above it.
There was a stove on the ground, three chairs. The chairs looked like they were homemade, but the craftsmanship was not very good. They were ugly and barely looked like chairs. There was also a low table.
A teapot without a lid and a tea bowl with a missing corner may also be a rice bowl.
The advantage is that they are all relatively clean.
Ye Yunchu walked over and lifted the curtain. Inside should be where Li Runrun was sleeping. There was a faint scent of cold chrysanthemums. Although the worn bedding was patched, it was very clean.
The things were kept in two baskets, one for embroidery and the other for sundries. The wound medicine and scar removal medicine he gave her seemed to be the most valuable.
The clothes were washed and neatly folded at the head of the bed. She didn't have any decent clothes. Ye Yunchu saw at a glance the green shirt that he had deliberately torn for the second time. She was reluctant to throw it away, so she sewed it up again.
Ye Yunchu reached out and took it. She embroidered the parts that couldn't be sewn properly. Her craftsmanship was really good.
If I were not a low-ranking servant in the marquis's mansion, and went out to be an embroiderer, my life would be better than it is now.
I was really suffocated by this small place. It felt like I was trapped in a coffin and couldn't turn over. The suffocating feeling in my heart was really painful.
Ye Yunchu picked up a chair and went out.
He put the chair on the ground, took a deep breath, and scolded: "Haitang!"
Haitang's heart sank, she knew something was wrong. The prince was extremely angry and had never spoken to her so harshly before.
Haitang knelt on the ground: "Prince..."
I haven’t finished calling you Prince yet.
Ye Yunchu went up to the chair that he had brought from Li Ruanruan's house and sat down imposingly, then...
The leg of the chair broke, and Ye Yunchu didn't have time to react before he fell to the ground with a face down.
The prince's secret guard who was lying on the wall in the distance was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
They have received professional training. It is just that the prince is too glorious and prosperous on ordinary days, and no one has ever seen such a day for him.
He couldn't hold back, he couldn't hold back, and then the prince's secret guards were captured by the Secret Five and Secret Four who appeared.
Ye Yunchu didn't expect that he would fall like this. He was really unprepared. He fell off the chair and rolled half a circle on the ground.
His white robe was stained with mud, his hair was slightly disheveled, and his jade crown was askew. He looked nothing like his usual cool and elegant self.
Ye Yunchu laughed out of anger, really laughed out of anger: "Okay, that's great!"
His face turned cold again. He pushed away Haitang who came to support him, stood up, pointed at Haitang's nose and asked condescendingly: "Does this prince's concubine usually live in a place like this?! I didn't know, but you guys are really tight-lipped. Well done!"
As soon as Ye Yunchu got angry, the secret guards and maids knelt on the ground.
The lower-ranking servants even crawled on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.
Anwu and Ansi felt a chill on their necks, exchanged glances, and temporarily suppressed the prince's secret guards, not daring to cause trouble in front of the prince again.
Haitang knelt on the ground and said, "It is my fault. Please punish me, my lord."
Shaoyao came and heard what happened. She didn't dare to show up again to bring bad luck to the prince, so she hurried back.
Ye Yunchu returned to his usual cold and emotionless appearance, but this time he lost his usual indifference and became even more aggressive: "Everyone in the East Court will be punished."
Ye Yunchu asked An Ba: "Where is Li Ruanruan? Have you found her?"
An Ba knelt down and replied, "Master, I am useless and don't even know where the concubine is."
"Come find the second young lady."
Ye Yunchu waved his hand again: "Forget it, I'll go ask my mother myself."
West Courtyard.
When the Marquis came out and saw Ye Yunchu, he couldn't help but say a few words: "Yun'er, even if there is something serious, you shouldn't disturb your mother's rest."
"It's a big deal. I finally got a concubine I like, but now she's going to torture me to death."
"ah?"
The Marquis's expression changed, and he glared at the Marquis's wife who had just come out. "You are so unbecoming! I've already told you that she's just a concubine, and she can't do anything wrong. How can you be so intolerant of her?"
The Marquis's wife's face turned pale. "My Lord, there must be a misunderstanding. That concubine almost killed Shuang'er, and I only punished her by sending her to the manor to learn the rules for two days. How can it be said that I can't tolerate her?"
As they were talking, the old lady arrived. "It's quite lively in the mansion today. You two should stop being so angry with Yun'er. The mansion is now entirely supported by him. I've heard that he doesn't dote on his concubine, nor does he dote on her to the extreme. Why is it that everyone is so against her?"
The old lady walked over distressedly, took Ye Yunchu's hand, and wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "My dear grandson, today I must ask for an explanation for you. Look how anxious you are, and you fell down. This really makes me sad. It's all your fault, your cruel father and your heartless mother!"
The Marquis's wife was pale and dared not say a word, and the Marquis did not look embarrassed.
As he was speaking, Ye Shuang was also called over.
Ye Qiaoqiao also came with them.
Ye Shuang immediately started to complain, "Brother, why are you making such a fuss over that concubine? She was only punished to go to the manor to learn the rules for two days and she will be back in two days. Can't you say that brother can't leave her for even a day?"
Ye Shuang tilted her neck back and showed Ye Yunchu the wound: "Don't you feel sorry at all that I almost lost my life?"
Ye Qiaoqiao couldn't stand it any longer. After greeting each other, she said to Ye Yunchu, "Big brother, you don't know. Ruanruan hurt me because I went too far. I pushed Ruanruan into the water to drown her, and then I stripped her naked and humiliated her. Ruanruan kidnapped me because she was forced to protect herself."
Ye Yunchu's eyes were cold as he looked at Ye Shuang: "Is that so?"
Ye Shuang glared at Ye Qiaoqiao who was complaining, and then said: "I was just joking with her, how dare I..."
“Snap—”
Ye Yunchu slapped Ye Shuang hard.
Ye Shuang covered her face and sat on the ground after being beaten. She looked up at Ye Yunchu in disbelief.
Ye Yunchu sneered: "I was just joking with you, is it funny?"
