Chapter 63 Young Master
Sang Ru was really scared at this moment. She was actually very timid.
In just these two months, she watched Yu Qinghuan offend one person after another. She supported him on the surface, but in fact, she was really worried about him.
Especially on the nights when the prince came to the manor, she was worried all night long, afraid that she would be discovered by the second master.
The second master is a lunatic. He even took away the tablet of the eldest master and now it is placed in his wife's room.
Looking at the situation today, she couldn't understand what they were doing, but she could hear what the three of them were saying together, which was full of sarcasm and all revolved around her wife.
The Crown Prince must have discovered what Madam and the Second Master were doing. When the two of them talk, Madam's dealings between the Crown Prince and the Second Master over the past few days will no longer be concealed.
This is really a run!
Yu Qinghuan patted the back of Sang Ru's hand and soothed her, "Don't panic."
How could Sang Ru not be panicked? She was so anxious that she almost jumped up and down.
"Madam, let's go. If we really wait for the Second Master to come back, we won't be able to leave."
Yu Qinghuan smiled as he took the bag off Sang Ru and pulled her to sit beside him. "Think carefully, what is the relationship between me and Xie Zhili?"
Sang Ru pouted, "Of course it's because I can't show it to others."
Yu Qinghuan: "Then think about it again, what is the relationship between me and the prince?"
Sang Ru: "...private relationship?"
Yu Qinghuan was silent for a moment. This girl really dared to say anything now.
"Then do you think that these two shady relationships are something glorious worth talking about?"
Sang Ru shook her head repeatedly. It was not glorious, so of course she couldn't tell it.
Yu Qinghuan laughed and said, "One is the Crown Prince, secretly meeting with a minister late at night, and the other is someone who is waiting for the Crown Prince to promote him. How could these two people tell others about such a shameful thing?"
When I saw the three of them sitting together in the yard, I was really panicked, afraid that Xie Zhili would speak without restraint and reveal everything.
But on the way back, she had calmed down.
Although Xiao Jinghe is the crown prince, according to Mu Huaian, he is still fighting with King Rui. If the reputation of him having an affair with a minister's wife gets out, it will be extremely disadvantageous to him.
Although Xie Zhili is on good terms with the prince, their status is not equal. He is obviously still waiting for the prince to promote him. Exposing his weaknesses now will not benefit him at all and will also become a handle for the prince to control him.
Thinking of this, Yu Qinghuan was no longer panicked. As long as he was more careful, situations like today's could have been avoided.
After hearing her analysis, Sang Ru felt a little relieved. However, when she thought of the young master, she was still a little worried. "Madam, what should we do about the young master?"
Madam had previously asked the young master to help with the painting, and this was no small matter. What if she let it slip in front of the Crown Prince or the Second Master...
Yu Qinghuan's eyes dimmed. "I've already confessed to him about Xie Zhili and I. I won't have any further contact with him from now on."
Sang Ru was stunned. "You told me everything?"
Yu Qinghuan nodded, "I've told you everything."
Sang Ru sighed, feeling regretful. It seemed like there was no hope at all for the lady and the young master.
However, she quickly remembered something else. "Madam, since you're no longer in contact with the young master, shouldn't you get your bellyband back?"
Such a private thing must not fall into the hands of outsiders.
Yu Qinghuan was puzzled, "What bellyband?"
Sang Ru: "Even when you came back from painting last time...I couldn't find your bellyband anywhere."
She remembered clearly that there was only one light red bellyband, and the lady had embroidered flowers on it herself. If someone familiar with it saw it, they would definitely recognize that it was the lady's stitches.
Yu Qinghuan's expression froze as she suddenly recalled that time when she was so lost in love that she almost got involved with Mu Huaian...
She didn't dare to think about this incident later, so how could she remember the bellyband?
Yu Qinghuan said calmly, "It's okay. The young master is a gentleman and won't say anything nonsense."
Sang Ru: "...but there are flowers embroidered by you yourself on it."
This is not a question of whether the young master is a gentleman or not, or whether he would say anything nonsense!
Seeing Sang Ru's disapproval, Yu Qinghuan was helpless. "I've already told him today that I won't look for him again. Otherwise... can you help me get my things back?"
Sang Ru's eyes widened in anger, "I won't go!"
Madam, you are shameless, but you still have some dignity to maintain.
Yu Qinghuan waved her hands. "Maybe he threw it away a long time ago. If he doesn't say anything, I won't say anything, and you won't say anything, no one will know that it's mine. I don't want to think about it anymore."
She thought to herself that she had only embroidered a purse for Xie Zhiwen, and he was the only one who could recognize her stitches. Since the person who could recognize her stitches was dead, it didn't matter where the bellyband was.
Right now, I should think carefully about how to deal with Xie Zhili tonight. I don’t know what tricks he will play tonight.
…
That night, Yu Qinghuan was in the house, waiting for Xie Zhili to arrive.
With Xiaowu's help, the young master, who had lived his life with integrity, strict self-discipline, and had never transgressed the rules, climbed over the wall of Xie's manor.
Xiao Wu was struggling to support him from below, whispering, "Sir, that's Madam Yu's yard, just jump down there bravely."
Mu Huaian frowned slightly, "Wait, someone..."
At this time, Xiao Wu could no longer hold on. He raised his hand with force, and Mu Huaian, who was not holding on to the wall, was pushed down by him!
With a "thump", the man fell in the yard, startling Sang Ru who was watching in the yard.
Sang Ru looked alert. He picked up the broom beside him, held the lantern in his hand, and walked over cautiously. He asked sharply, "Who's there?!"
Xiaowu on the other side of the courtyard wall slapped his forehead, he was really doomed!
But he couldn't blame himself, because his young master wanted to visit the boudoir at night but couldn't even climb over the wall.
At this time, Mu Huaian had already climbed up from the ground. He subconsciously adjusted his mask with his hand. Seeing Sang Ru coming over, he quickly straightened his body.
Sang Ru walked over, ready to beat up the shameless lecher, but in the dim light of the lantern, she saw an unexpected person.
The young master who was described by Yu Qinghuan as a gentleman during the day was now standing under the wall, his body still covered in dirt, but he stood with his hands behind his back, looking upright.
Mu Huaian: "Is your wife here?"
Sang Ru: “…”
…
Yu Qinghuan waited in the room, ready to have a thorough talk with Xie Zhili tonight.
The door opened and Sang Ru walked in. She asked in a deep voice, "Xie Zhili is back?"
Sang Ru shook her head, looking embarrassed, "It's not Second Master..."
Yu Qinghuan looked puzzled: "?"
The next moment, a figure walked out from behind Sang Ru, wearing a snow-white fox fur coat, with messy hair stained with dead leaves, blocking the large area of moonlight outside the house behind him.
He looked at Yu Qinghuan through the mask, his eyes surging with burning dark currents. Thinking of the purpose of coming here tonight, his throat tightened and he said in a hoarse voice, "It's me."
For a moment, Yu Qinghuan thought she was dreaming... How could Mu Huaian appear here?!
