Chapter 137 This letter came from the capital
After Su Rui left, Changning ordered someone to take Chen Youmin away.
But the Winter Banquet cannot be stopped because of this matter, and Changning, as the organizer of this event, cannot leave early.
I could only hold back my anger, but it only grew stronger.
After Su Rui left, Chen Youmin couldn't punish her in public, so he vented all his anger on Zhou Yao who accompanied him.
He let Zhou Yao serve him tea and water, and prepare food like a maid.
In a moment of carelessness, he lost his grip on the dish and it fell onto Changning's skirt.
"How can you do anything without eyes?"
The nanny shouted angrily and pushed Zhou Yao, who had already lost a lot of weight, with a palm. She was pushed down and hit the long table next to her. Her forehead hit the corner and blood immediately came out.
But no one came to help her.
In the eyes of the noble ladies, Zhou Yao's reputation was ruined and she was no longer in the social circle. Why should they offend Chang Ning for such a person?
They pretended not to see anything and continued eating their own food.
Zhou Yao covered her head, crying and wailing, "I... I really don't have the strength."
"No strength?" Chang Ning raised his eyes and said coldly, "Why? Didn't my Prince Long's Mansion give you food?"
Zhou Yao shuddered with fear and shook her head repeatedly. "No, no, it's me. I'm weak and have no strength."
Zhou Yao was really scared.
I have been tortured badly by Changning these days.
Changning was even more cruel and terrifying than she had imagined. He had all kinds of ways to torture people, but none of them could kill them.
After a few days, there was not a single piece of healthy skin on her body. She was tortured day and night and never slept for more than an hour.
She was extremely afraid of Changning now, and just one look from him made her legs tremble.
She came here today thinking that she could see her mother and ask her to save her, but her mother did not come because of heart disease.
It was obvious that he deliberately didn't want to save her because he was afraid that she would be embarrassed because of her!
She is her own daughter!
But Su Rui lived so well that even Chang Ning couldn't do anything to her.
"I see. Then..."
"Cousin!" Tang Yuli interrupted Changning and whispered, "Didn't my uncle instruct us to show everyone the power of Prince Long's Mansion today? If we treat them too harshly, I'm afraid they'll be worried."
Is she, the Prince Long’s Mansion, afraid of people’s concerns?
But facing those eyes that were not looking directly at him but were always watching him out of the corner of their eyes, Changning did not continue.
He simply waved his hand and had the nanny take Zhou Yao away, then whispered a warning to Tang Yuli. "I'll settle your matter with you when we get back."
Tang Yuli's expression darkened, and he didn't refute anything.
…
After the Winter Banquet ended, the rumors did not end.
It is said that when Chen Youmin returned home that day, he was beaten half to death by Changning and was only hanging on to his last breath.
There are also people who say that Changning loved Chen Youmin so much that even though he was dishonest several times, she still chose to forgive him and nothing happened.
No matter what, it had no impact on Prince Yong's Mansion, or more precisely, on Su Rui.
Even Su Rui didn't pay any attention to it. She was too busy and had no time.
Ever since Rudongyan left, she has been working on opening a shop.
The ointment would take effect in one day, and thirty jars of ointment would be enough if ten people used it.
A jar of ointment is only enough for one month, so Su Rui wants to use this month to open the shop and spread its reputation.
It doesn't matter whether she makes money or not. She has to make these ladies from aristocratic families come once and keep them, so that they would rather put aside their contempt for her and their concerns about Prince Yong's Mansion and come.
After two or three times, as time went by, he would have his own bias in mind, and he could speak to the head of the family, and he would always be able to convince a few people. At least, more people would consider Yun Ji, the Prince of Yong.
But it is easier said than done.
Su Rui had never done business before. The shops that were part of her mother's dowry were all managed by Liang, so it was not her turn to run the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion.
She hasn't even decided on a location yet.
Either the location is not suitable, or the owner is afraid of being implicated and refuses to sell.
Her headache made her temples swell, and she felt even more tired than before. She cursed in her heart that Yun Ji, the damn bald donkey, was so comfortable hiding in Yanzhou and enjoying himself.
As he was cursing, he fell asleep.
"Ah Qiu!"
The guard sneezed and almost hit the letter in Yunji's hand.
Yun Ji moved away a little, "If you have caught a cold, go back and rest, there is no need to force yourself."
The guard wiped his nose and shook his head.
This group of secret guards were transferred to the personal guards, and they were most aware of Yun Ji's current predicament.
Although these soldiers from Yanzhou are fat meat that everyone can see, they are also thorns and extremely difficult to tame.
From the time Yun Ji came to Yanzhou until now, none of his soldiers have ever been submissive to him. All of them look fearless and would rather lose their heads than submit to a commander who was parachuted in after returning to secular life.
The vanguard commander of the Marquis of Yong'an was also useless. Old Loach's tricks had no effect on those troublemakers at all. Instead, they made them even more dissatisfied. They felt that Yun Ji only had this little ability and still needed his father-in-law to do things for him.
Yun Ji did not explain, but a group of guards felt sorry for their master. However, since Yun Ji had given the order, they could not refute anything and could only stay by his side to ensure his safety.
Just when he was feeling sorry for his master, the guard saw Yun Ji's mouth corners raised.
Since coming to Yanzhou, although the master still has the same indifferent expression as before and does not show much emotion, he has never smiled.
Now he smiled when he saw the letter?
Oh! This letter came from Shengjing, and it's about the witch, no, the concubine.
Ah, the master is really so confused that he can’t tell north from south.
Yun Ji was unaware of the guards' shouting in their hearts. He only looked at the situation in the capital in the letter and laughed. Su Rui's mind was indeed filled with countless evil ideas.
A jar of ointment directly hit the hearts of the noble ladies in the capital, easily broke through Changning's obstacles, and taught Chen Youmin a lesson.
I was worrying about her unnecessarily.
In his hand, he stroked the jade pendant with a heart knot that Su Rui asked Black Bodhisattva to send back to him on the day of the engagement. These days, he relied on the jade pendant to calm his restless heart.
He hasn't hung up since the day Su Rui sent it back to him.
After all, he and Su Rui were just like that, so it was not good to carry something that was a token of their love.
He couldn't explain why he brought it this time.
I saw it before going out and put it in my bag.
"Prince! Prince!" An urgent and panicked shout came from outside.
The guards immediately became alert. The Yanzhou military commander came running in, sweating profusely, pointing outside and shouting, "Your Highness, this is bad! Your guards and Deputy Commander Shen are fighting!"
Deputy Commander Shen Duo is the biggest troublemaker in the Yanzhou army and also the most prestigious. If Yun Ji had not parachuted in, he would have been the commander.
If a fight broke out at this time, it would be a big trouble, so Yun Ji immediately stood up and rushed out.
