Chapter 198 Why is Madam Yu sighing?
Yu Qinghuan was originally thinking about how to deal with Xiao Jinghe, but a day and a night passed without seeing him. Only countless delicacies and exquisite jewelry were continuously delivered to her temporary bedroom.
In just one day, the news spread throughout the palace that the prince had abducted the recently divorced Yu and brought her into the palace, where she was being served with fine clothes and delicious food.
Some people also said that the prince had been eyeing Yu for a long time, and the reason why Ningyuan Hou divorced his wife was because the prince used his power to force him.
Fabricated by some people with ulterior motives, rumors spread throughout the capital, saying that Yu was a vixen who had previously turned the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion upside down and caused the Xie brothers to turn against each other. Now she had hooked up with the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace, making him lose his mind and even intending to marry a divorced woman as his Crown Princess. It was absurd in the extreme.
Some people scolded Yu Qinghuan for being unfaithful and shameless, while others envied her but dared not say it out loud.
More people are curious about how beautiful Yu is to make these men fall for her one after another.
In Xifeng Tower, a group of people were drinking and chatting. They were discussing interesting things happening in the capital recently. Someone asked mysteriously, "Do you know what happened two days ago?"
"But what happened at the gate of the Dali Temple?"
"That's it!"
The people nearby were wondering why they hadn't heard anything about what had happened in the past two days. They immediately urged, "What are you guys whispering about? Tell us quickly."
The man looked around and then whispered, "You all know about the girls who disappeared in the capital a while ago, right?"
"I know, I know. I heard today when I came out that the Dali Temple seemed to have caught the kidnapping suspects."
The man deliberately kept the question in suspense, "Then do you know how this group of people were arrested?"
"Tell me now!"
"I heard about this as well. They said that group of people were desperate and captured Yu. The Dali Temple Minister Xie was so angry for the beauty he loved that he immediately forced General Du of the Jinwu Guard to seal the city gates and search the entire city. Only then did they catch the person!"
"Oh my god, I heard before that the reason Yu was divorced by Marquis Xie was because she had an affair with Lord Xie. I didn't expect it to be true."
The man continued mysteriously, "That's not the most important thing. When they heard that Yu was missing, even the one in the East Palace was alarmed. He left the palace the night before yesterday and ran to the Dali Temple to snatch her away, and then abducted her to the palace!"
"sky!"
"Then how did the Yu family get involved with that person?"
"They must have hooked up before..."
"No way, that's the Crown Prince of the East Palace!"
The man smirked, "If you ask me, they must have been having an affair for a long time. Otherwise, how could Yu be involved with that person from the Eastern Palace right after being divorced? Now she's even living in the palace. I heard that the Crown Prince wants to marry her as his consort!"
There was an uproar!
"I've heard that Yu is beautiful, but I've never seen her. Have you ever seen her?"
"Not really."
"I heard that the Yu family went to the Spring Flower Banquet before..."
"Brother Zheng must have seen it!"
When Zheng Qibai was mentioned, someone immediately nudged him and asked curiously, "Brother Zheng, didn't Yu go to your family's Spring Flower Banquet before? Have you seen that person? Is she really beautiful?"
Zheng Qibai's eyes suddenly flashed with the stunning sight of her that day. Her beauty was so stunning that it was no exaggeration to call her a goddess.
But looking at the malicious faces and dirty words in front of him, he frowned slightly and suddenly didn't want these people to know anything about Yu's sister.
Seeing that he didn't speak, someone asked hurriedly.
Zheng Qibai replied casually, "I don't know, I've never seen it."
The young man next to him who was on good terms with Zheng Qibai thought of the woman in pink whom he had seen at Zheng's house that day, and suddenly realized that the woman in pink must be Yu, who was extremely beautiful!
He was about to speak when Zheng Qibai stopped him.
Zheng Qibai pulled his friend away from the table and said, "Everyone, we have something to do first. Bye."
After leaving Xifeng Tower, his friend was puzzled, "Zheng Er, didn't you meet Yu Shi, the one in the pink shirt that day? You even talked to her!"
He felt that his good brother was a little abnormal today. He had been absent-minded since he left home this morning, and just now he lied that he had never seen Yu.
Zheng Qibai looked unhappy. "Sister Yu is a good person. Do you think they have a single clean word?"
The friend was stunned and laughed awkwardly, "That's not what they meant. They were just talking casually. Why take it so seriously?"
Zheng Qibai, however, could not bear to hear these people say anything bad about Yu Qinghuan. She was his sister's benefactor and a guest of honor in their Zheng family. He immediately decided to draw a clear line with these people.
"If you want to interact with those people in there in the future, don't take me with you."
With that, he left quickly.
The friend saw that Zheng Qibai was really angry, and without caring about his new friends in the building, he immediately chased after him, "Don't be angry, I won't have any contact with them anymore!"
Zheng Qibai's expression improved. How could those who gossiped about others be good people?
It is not the place for these people who have never even met the sister of the Yu family to make random comments about what kind of person she is.
…
At the same time, in the Imperial Garden.
At the suggestion of a serving palace maid, Yu Qinghuan took Sang Ru and avoided the palace servants who were following them and ran here.
The imperial garden was ablaze with flowers, their vibrant colors making one unable to look away, especially the rare and valuable varieties. Yu Qinghuan had only seen them in books, but now she was so attracted by them that she couldn't move her eyes away.
"Sang Ru, do you think Xiao Jinghe would give me these two flowers if I asked him for them?"
Hearing this, Sang Ru smiled, "If the young lady is willing to stay in the palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will find a way to give her not only these two flowers, but even the entire imperial garden."
Yu Qinghuan suddenly stopped talking and sighed deeply. The flowers are beautiful, but the place is not suitable.
At this moment, a deep voice sounded from behind, "Madam Yu, why are you sighing?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Yu Qinghuan subconsciously turned around. The person in front of her was wearing a purple official robe and was walking towards her.
It was the first time she saw this person wearing a color other than red. His clothes were more reserved and noble than red, just like the precious orchids she had just set her eyes on, which were too valuable and could not be touched.
Sang Ru was surprised. Why was Lord Cheng here?
This was the first time the two had met since the Spring Flower Banquet.
Their eyes met, and Yu Qinghuan looked away, bowing and saying, "Why is Lord Cheng here?"
She did not add the word "you, old man" as before, but she called him "Lord Cheng", which was more distant than calling him "Mr. Cheng" all the time.
Cheng Gongjin frowned slightly and said calmly, "Huai'an heard that you were abducted into the palace and begged me to come to the palace to find you."
Yu Qinghuan was instantly delighted and took two steps closer to Cheng Gongjin. "What did Huai'an say?"
Seeing this, Sang Ru skillfully walked to the side to watch.
Seeing the unconcealable joy on her face, Cheng Gongjin felt inexplicably unhappy. "Now that you have entered the palace with the Crown Prince, why do you still care about what others say?"
