Chapter 230 Beauty's Schemes (33) - Planning a Wedding
Prince Rui really left this time. Soon, the steward came and handed her a wooden box.
Ning Shu opened it and her eyes lit up.
Inside was a stack of silver notes and a lot of jewelry; she was now truly wealthy.
The housekeeper was actually a little flustered when he saw her accept the box without hesitation and wait with a smile.
After all, he had previously wrongly accused her of being a spy, but unexpectedly, she suddenly became the prince's concubine.
He was somewhat afraid that she would whisper in the prince's ear and trip him up, so he tried his best not to appear in front of her.
But the prince had ordered him to deliver the silver, so he had no choice but to come.
Miss Ruyi seemed to have no grudge against what he had done before, her mind was full of the things in the box, but she didn't give the prince what he wanted.
The steward was a little flustered. As the other party waved him away, he spoke up: "Miss Ruyi, the prince said that you have something to give him and asked me to put it away for him first."
Ning Shu was taken aback, not expecting that guy to be so stingy, he actually wanted it.
Looking at the wooden box in her arms, she felt she hadn't lost out in this deal, and said:
"I didn't bring that little golden tiger with me; I put it in a safe place, but the prince won't let me go out today..."
The steward, understanding the implication, immediately said, "This old servant can send someone to fetch it; young lady, you just need to tell this old servant where it is."
Ning Shu thought it was fine, since she couldn't go out today anyway, so she told the housekeeper the specific address.
After sending the person away, she grabbed a handful of silver notes and put them in her bosom, then hurried off to find the graffiti.
Although Tuya was being guarded, he wasn't considered a prisoner, so Ning Shu could still see him if she wanted to.
After all, Prince Rui only told her not to leave the mansion, but he didn't say she couldn't look at the graffiti.
The graffiti was overjoyed to see her.
He hadn't slept well all night, still confused about Ning Shu's actions yesterday, and was waiting for her to explain things to him with dark circles under his eyes.
Graffiti: "Sister Ning, why did you frame Brother Chuan? What will happen to our mission if he goes to jail?"
Ning Shu said smugly, "No, he's in jail, so we can all complete our mission."
Think about it, I want them to be able to get married in the end.
Letting them get married in prison is an option, isn't that simpler than breaking them out of jail?
Needless to say, it's even more so for your side. Would the Gao family let their daughter marry a prisoner? They would definitely break off the engagement.
If the Gao family is unwilling to annul the engagement, then I will go and beg the Prince.
Let him make Cui Zeyu's crimes even more serious, like the kind that would lead to the extermination of nine generations of his family. I don't believe the Gao family can hold out any longer.
This is a solution I came up with on the spur of the moment. Is it a brilliant idea?
This was indeed something Ning Shu came up with on the spur of the moment.
Cui Zeyu and Yin Xinyue were imprisoned together; how can that not be considered a happy ending?
It also solves the graffiti task at the same time, which is truly "killing two birds with one stone"!
It's much simpler to operate than before, and it's not illegal either. Well, at least she and the graffiti are free, right?
Besides, she sacrificed her first and second time in order to complete this mission.
So what if Cheng Chuan goes to jail? Can he suffer more than she does?
Ning Shu felt she had suffered a huge loss; the game should release her to make up for the damage done.
The graffiti artist thought that even a dog would shake its head at this idea.
He never expected Ning Shu to be so ruthless in order to complete the mission, even going so far as to exterminate the entire family.
For a moment, I didn't know whether I should sympathize with Cheng Chuan or not, whether having such a teammate was a blessing or a curse.
Meanwhile, Cui Zeyu had been thinking about it all night, unable to figure out how this had happened.
When did he offend Miss Ruyi, that she would so cruelly frame him?
Although he did intend to break into the prison, he didn't have a chance to do so. And the other party even falsely accused him of threatening them. What was the purpose of this?
Could it be that all her previous enthusiasm in helping to solve the case was just an act?
Was her initial goal to get close to him and then frame him?
But she must want something in return, right? He felt like his brain was about to explode, and he couldn't come up with a solution.
Suddenly, the jailer opened the door to his cell and shouted, "Lord Cui, please come in."
Cui Zeyu was puzzled. Was he about to be tried?
He still asked, "Where to?"
Jailer: "We'll move you to a different cell."
Cui Zeyu didn't understand and could only wait and see.
But when he arrived at Yin Xinyue's cell, he asked the jailer uncertainly, "Are you sure you want me to move here?"
Male and female prisoners in the Dali Temple were usually kept in separate prisons; it was unprecedented for them to be kept together.
Jailer: "That's what they said, just stay put."
After saying that, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Do wealthy families these days go to such lengths? Spending so much money just to lock a man and a woman up together."
Cui Zeyu was unaware of the truth, but when he saw Yin Xinyue, he suddenly felt very satisfied.
Although he didn't understand where this sense of satisfaction came from.
Yin Xinyue was both surprised and delighted to see him. After hearing that he had also been imprisoned, she felt guilty and the two began to "confide in each other".
Since graffiti couldn't leave the mansion either, Ning Shu gave the money to the steward.
He was asked to do something for him: to go to the Dali Temple and imprison Cui Zeyu and Yin Xinyue together.
The steward, knowing that Prince Rui was quite fond of Miss Ruyi, naturally complied with everything he asked. After all, he was the steward of Prince Rui's mansion, and everyone had to give him face.
With his financial resources, the jailers of the Dali Temple could still satisfy this small matter, but the steward had many doubts in his heart.
Following Ning Shu's instructions, the steward also sent someone to inform the Gao family about Cui Zeyu's imprisonment.
After all, the Prince Rui's Mansion and the Gao Mansion are now quasi-marriage relatives, so the Gao Mansion will not suspect anything from this exchange of information; on the contrary, they will be very grateful.
Ning Shu quickly calculated in her mind that there were only 5 days left in the dungeon.
She has to complete the task of getting Cui Yin married and Cui Gao to annul his engagement in these 5 days, which is a bit rushed.
Prince Rui returned in the afternoon, seemingly in a good mood. He wasn't angry when he heard that the steward had gone out to run errands for Ning Shu.
Taking the opportunity, Ning Shu asked, "Your Highness, are you aware that Lord Cui is fond of Yin Xinyue?"
Prince Rui was enjoying her massage with his eyes closed.
I was initially annoyed when she mentioned Cui Zeyu, but after hearing her complete sentence, I suddenly felt less upset.
He said casually, "Oh? And then?"
Ning Shu pressed her advantage, saying, "Then why don't we grant their wish and give them a simple wedding in prison?"
After all, Yin Xinyue was sentenced to death, and Lord Cui wanted to break her out of prison for her sake.
Such a moving love story shouldn't be celebrated; at least let it be given a happy ending, shouldn't it?
Prince Rui glanced at her, observing the subtle expressions on her face as she spoke.
He had previously thought she had feelings for Cui Zeyu, but was that just his imagination?
Last night she exposed Cui Zeyu, and I thought it was because of love turned to hate.
Her attitude changed so drastically in just one day, giving him a very disconcerting feeling.
