"What else do you have to say, Lord Su? If you stop me, I'll arrest you too," Sheng Jingyu said coldly.
Su Yuan opened his mouth, but found that this was difficult to explain.
If she were said to be the Crown Prince's person, it would become that the Crown Prince wanted to harm Su Wenyuan, making the situation even more complicated.
There was nothing he could do but keep quiet for the time being.
"Let's go." Sheng Jingyu raised his arm, and Su Wenyuan eagerly went over to help him into the carriage.
He is indeed a prince; this identity is somewhat useful, allowing him to completely suppress Su Yuan.
They can arrest people whenever they want, how convenient!
All the people from Prince Chen's mansion had left, and Su Yuan looked at the empty gate, feeling like he had nowhere to vent his anger.
He still needed to find Sheng Yuanhe and figure out a way to rescue the guards who had been trapped inside.
It's not easy to keep loyal people in the manor; it's worth it for them to die for the cause. What kind of mess is this?
Su Xian realized the situation was bad and had already run away; he still needed to find a way to get some money out.
But he had lost all his money, and Wang Shi was also gone. How could he redeem the jewelry? He also had to pay back what he owed Sun Gui. All things considered, this was no small sum.
While he was anxiously waiting in his room, someone told him that Su Yuan had some silver notes sealed in a small box that he wouldn't touch normally, but could be used in an emergency.
This person was also arranged by Su Wenyuan; she just bribed him last night.
He also told Su Xian that as long as he returned the money later, he wouldn't be discovered. Right now, it was more important to give the jewelry to Su Lin'er, otherwise she would complain.
Su Xiangang was terrified after being slapped by Su Yuan. He couldn't even imagine how Su Yuan would react if he knew about these things.
His fear and terror helped Su Wenyuan once again.
Su Wenyuan ignored the trouble left for the Su family; she was more curious about what was wrong with Sheng Jingyu.
After getting into the carriage, he kept a gloomy face and spoke to her in a very unfriendly manner.
"You've entered the palace? What did your father and mother say to you?" Su Wenyuan tried to find out the reason.
Sheng Jingyu replied, "What does this have to do with you?"
"???"
Su Wenyuan was full of questions and asked again, "Then what are you doing at the Su residence?"
"Just passing by, wanted to hear a sound!" Sheng Jingyu's tone remained unfriendly.
Su Wenyuan said calmly, "So you're in a good mood, is there anything else you want to do?"
"I want to take you back to the Prince Chen's mansion and lock you up!" Sheng Jingyu said bitterly.
Just because I wasn't watching her for a moment, she wants a divorce? This princess is something else, she can do whatever she wants.
Su Wenyuan slapped his thigh hard with a loud "smack".
"I'll give you another slap, can't you speak properly?" Su Wenyuan's patience was running out.
I was initially quite grateful to Sheng Jingyu, but why is he being so sarcastic?
Sheng Jingyu winced in pain and shifted to the side, keeping her distance from Su Wenyuan.
Su Wenyuan lifted the curtain and instructed, "Meng Qi, find two people to beat up Su Xian a few times when he goes out at night, but don't let anyone find out."
"Ye Shan, go find Sun Gui for me. The jewelry still needs to be returned to him. I need him to sell it to Su Xian at a higher price. Whether we can make a profit depends entirely on him."
This kind of debt that can be cleared up as quickly as possible shows how ruthless Su Wenyuan can be.
Anyway, she won't admit it if I contact her again later. As long as she doesn't rip off the house too badly, it'll be fine.
Before the curtain was even drawn, Sheng Jingyu said from behind, "Oh, I thought you were being treated like royalty when you returned to the Su residence. Is this all?"
I thought she was living a good life, which is why she wanted to divorce and go back.
Su Wenyuan glanced at him and said, "Don't you know how those people in the Su family treat me? You're deliberately rubbing salt into my wounds! If I were to do well in the Su family, would you have a chance to marry me?"
Sheng Jingyu was speechless for a moment. Why was she angry?
The latter statement is true; if she were as favored as Su Lin'er, they wouldn't have had the chance to meet.
The carriage stopped, and Su Wenyuan jumped down without paying any attention to Sheng Jingyu.
There were a bunch of guards behind him, so someone was always in charge.
Yuexiu turned around uneasily and asked, "Your Highness, is this alright?"
Su Wenyuan said, "Why don't you take care of me first! Who offended him? After Ye Shan comes back, have her come to me. What exactly did the palace say?"
Since the incident involving the Seventh Prince, no one from the palace has come looking for them.
The fact that they're suddenly contacting Sheng Jingyu now probably means something bad is going on.
Ye Shan brought Sun Gui back, and Su Wenyuan returned all the jewelry to him. She then recounted how she had deceived Su Xian and Su Lin'er.
Sun Gui knew what was going on as soon as he heard the beginning, and said with a smile, "If he comes to ask me, I will say that because I can't find him, I was thinking of selling the jewelry for a high price. After thinking about it, I felt that the princess was interested, so I came to recommend it to her."
Su Wenyuan nodded approvingly and said, "If you say it like that, he won't doubt it, and he'll buy it back."
After seeing Sun Gui off, Su Wenyuan began to question Ye Shan.
"What's going on in the palace? Your prince went there and came back and nothing seems right."
She never imagined that one of her words would upset Sheng Jingyu.
The main reason is that Meng Qi didn't understand what was being said and took it as fact.
Ye Shan replied, "The autumn hunting competition is in two days. Since the prince went blind, he has never participated. But this time, the emperor insists that the prince go, saying that he cannot be absent. Even if he cannot participate, he can still sit and chat."
"His Majesty also said that since the brothers grew up, they no longer had the desire to study and play together as they did when they were young, and their relationship had become distant. This is a good opportunity to rekindle their brotherly bond."
Su Wenyuan blurted out, "Why didn't the Emperor say this when the Crown Prince harmed him?"
Sheng Jingyu is blind! Sending him to participate in the hunt? That's an insult.
