Chapter 264 The Eldest Lady
The man had a gentle and elegant appearance, wearing a dark blue brocade robe and a blue jade hairpin in his hair. However, because he was in a hurry, his hair was a little messy.
This person was none other than the Uncle Zhuo Zhuo Hongli mentioned by Mo Yunzhu.
Yuan Qing was very anxious at the time and ran as fast as he could on the road, fearing that something might happen to the young lady. Fortunately, Brothel Street was not too far from Wanyao Pavilion.
Yuan Qing met Uncle Zhou first. He said that something had happened to the eldest lady. Uncle Zhou was also shocked and immediately took him to see Zhuo Hongli.
Zhuo Hongli was checking the accounts. When he heard Yuan Qing say that Mo Yunzhu was chosen by the Seventh Prince and was brought into the brothel, he stood up suddenly and dropped his brush to the ground.
"Master Zhuo, if you don't go and save the young lady, she will be in trouble. It's obvious that the Seventh Prince is not a good person. The young lady can't be ruined by such a man." Yuan Qing knelt in front of Zhuo Hongli and cried.
Zhuo Hongli's face was extremely grim, and he immediately shouted angrily: "Seventh Prince, you are so good, Lao Zhou, prepare the horses!"
Uncle Zhou rushed out immediately. Zhuo Hong called Uncle Zhao and whispered a few words into his ear. Uncle Zhao's face changed several times, then he immediately agreed and went out.
Zhuo Hongli then rushed out of Wanyao Pavilion. Yuan Qing, who was behind him, felt better seeing Zhuo Hongli so anxious, but he had no horse, so he could only continue to run back.
As soon as he walked out the door, he saw Chang Teng coming back, and he quickly pulled Chang Teng to run together.
"What did you say!" Chang Teng almost hit Yuan Qing, "Why aren't you looking at the young lady?"
Yuan Qing also said depressedly: "Do you think I can keep an eye on her? But looking at the way the young lady is, she shouldn't be in any trouble. Let Master Zhuo go, there will definitely be something good going on."
Chang Teng raised his eyebrows. Thinking of everything that the eldest lady and the prince had arranged in Qingyun, he didn't think that the eldest lady would take the initiative to come and be made fun of by the seventh prince.
"Where have you been? Why are you back so late?" Yuan Qing asked.
"I went to find Ji Xingyun. I came back early, and Ji Xingyun took me to meet Xu Haoqin." Chang Teng said.
"Xu Haoqin?" Yuan Qing didn't know this person.
"Ji Xingyun came to Chen State. Master Zhuo trusted him and asked him to find Xu Haoqin to protect Ji Xingyun's safety. Today I met Xu Haoqin and found that he is not an ordinary person."
"Oh?" Yuan Qing was surprised.
"He is a killer, and he is very skilled in martial arts. It is no problem for him to protect Ji Xingyun, but I don't think he is just a killer." Chang Teng said, "He said he wanted to see the young lady."
"Mr. Zhuo's people should be reliable. Now that Mr. Zhuo is back, the eldest lady will definitely meet him." Yuan Qing said.
Chang Teng nodded, and Yuan Qing talked about Junko and Rika again. Chang Teng quickly understood the whole thing.
Everyone would be angry when encountering this kind of bullying behavior, let alone the straight man, the eldest lady would definitely jump out.
If it weren't for the Seventh Prince, there would probably be other righteous people who would have stepped forward.
In Yueya Tower, Mo Yunzhu saw Zhuo Hongli coming and immediately stood up with a smile.
"Uncle Zhuo, you are here. If you don't come, I will be bullied by the Seventh Prince."
Mo Yunzhu's smile and then her aggrieved pout at Zhuo Hongli made Zhuo Hongli a little dazzled and heartbroken.
He didn't know how many years it had been since he had felt such complicated emotions.
The Seventh Prince and Zhao Qinghao both looked at Zhuo Hongli who came in.
Zhao Qinghao was more nervous than the Seventh Prince because he knew he was no match for Zhuo Hongli.
Zhuo Hongli is also an expert in using poison, and Wanyao Pavilion secretly hides a group of killers. It is best not to offend such people.
What's more, Zhuo Hongli has a very good relationship with the current Emperor Retired Chen Tianqi. Uncle Zhuo secretly helped the Emperor Retired to ascend the throne smoothly, and he played a great role.
It's just that he himself didn't want to stay and chose to open Wanyao Pavilion, and he was not keen on power.
I didn't expect that he is Mo Yunzhu's uncle. He seems to be very nervous about this niece.
"Yunzhu, don't be afraid. Uncle Zhuo is here, and you will be fine." Zhuo Hongli was attracted by Mo Yunzhu's smile and the aggrieved expression at the end, and immediately expressed his reassurance to her.
Mo Yunzhu walked to Zhuo Hongli and said aggrievedly, "Uncle Zhuo, you know I don't know many people here. I didn't expect to offend the Seventh Prince as soon as I arrived. I think I have to go back as soon as possible."
"That won't do, Yunzhu. Don't be afraid. I'll take care of this matter." After Zhuo Hongli finished speaking, he looked at the Seventh Prince and Zhao Qinghao.
Then he clasped his fists to the Seventh Prince and said, "Seventh Prince, my niece is still young and doesn't know much. If she has offended you in any way, please don't take it too seriously and just give me some face, how about that?"
"Master Zhuo, is she really your niece? She's not from the Chen Kingdom, right?" The Seventh Prince had already seen the look Zhao Qinghao gave him, and he knew that he couldn't do anything to Mo Yunzhu tonight.
"Ahem, she's my good friend's daughter. She came from Qingyun to play. Unexpectedly, she met the Seventh Prince right after she arrived." Zhuo Hongli looked at Mo Yunzhu and smiled kindly.
“But she clearly knew that I was the Seventh Prince, yet she still dared to provoke me. This can’t be taken lightly.” The Seventh Prince raised his eyebrows.
Zhuo Hongli was stunned and turned to look at Mo Yunzhu. Could it be that she had brought this upon herself?
"Uncle Zhuo, let me tell you what happened." Mo Yunzhu did not hide anything and started with Shunzi. Finally, she said, "Uncle, I couldn't bear to see that girl being bullied. Secondly, I saw that the Seventh Prince's health was indeed too bad, so I reminded him with good intentions. Uncle, you know my medical skills. I can't stand them questioning my medical skills!"
Mo Yunzhu acted as if the Seventh Prince looked down on her.
"Ahem, ahem, I'm fine." The Seventh Prince felt that this was a very embarrassing thing, but he was actually extremely panicked inside. Was he really going to give up?
"Bullshit!" Mo Yunzhu immediately retorted.
"You!" The Seventh Prince was so angry that he almost exploded.
Mo Yunzhu was still making faces at Zhuo Hongli from behind. Was she trying to piss him off to death?
"Seventh Prince, Yun Zhu's medical skills are indeed amazing. If she sees that there is something wrong with you, she is definitely not wrong." Zhuo Hongli said seriously, "You should go back immediately and let the imperial physician diagnose you again, so as to avoid irreparable consequences."
Just as the Seventh Prince was about to lose his temper, Zhao Qinghao immediately said, "Prince, actually Master Zhuo is right. The most important thing now is to make sure whether you really have a problem. Nothing else matters." He winked at him as he said that.
The Seventh Prince and Zhao Qinghao had always gotten along well, and it was also because Zhao Qinghao was a bit smart, so he fell silent.
"Seventh Prince, Yun Zhu has a bit of a naughty temper, please don't be offended. I will come to your house to apologize later." Zhuo Hongli was very humble.
"Hmph!" The Seventh Prince looked at Mo Yunzhu unhappily. Mo Yunzhu had an arrogant expression as if to say, "What can you do to me?"
"Yunzhu, apologize to the Seventh Prince." Zhuo Hongli said to Mo Yunzhu.
"Ah! Apologize, what for? I'm not wrong! Uncle, he might need me to treat his illness in the future! I'll have to pay him a lot of money then!"
Mo Yunzhu acted like a typical spoiled young lady.
