Chapter 66 The Innermost Room
"Don't talk nonsense, woman. The king's uncle is extremely brave, why would he need those things!" a follower said angrily.
The long list of medicinal herbs just mentioned are all nourishing medicines for men. Isn’t this little girl deliberately slandering the emperor’s uncle?
Chen Guojiu's eyes were a little vague.
How could she know all this, especially what happened two months ago...
"You have a blood debt on your body. Now you can't sleep well every night. Retribution is not far away." Yun Qingqing said calmly.
Uncle Chen shuddered and his face darkened.
"How dare you slander me, you bitch! I gave you some face because I saw that you were pretty, but I think you are..."
Yun Qingqing's eyes turned cold, and she picked up the teapot on the table and smashed it directly into his face.
"Even if it's the Queen, I won't stop at anything. Who do you think you are? If you don't keep your mouth shut, I'll punish you just the same!"
The tea in the pot was still hot. Uncle Chen screamed in pain, wiping his face in a panic while shouting:
"How dare you plot against me! Catch her now!"
The two followers rushed towards Yun Qingqing cursing.
"Miss, run quickly! I'll stop them!" Qiao'er hurriedly tried to push Yun Qingqing out.
However, Yun Qingqing directly pulled Qiao'er behind him and sneered:
"If I don't teach that scum a lesson, I won't be able to enjoy my meal today! Get out of the way!"
A moment later.
The three men fell out of the Tianxiang Pavilion with bruised faces and noses.
Yun Qingqing brushed off the non-existent dust on her sleeves.
It feels good.
"You bitch, just wait for me!" Several people ran away cursing.
…
Regent's Palace.
"Your Highness, something bad has happened. The princess..." The secret guard who reported spoke hesitantly.
Nan Zheng frowned and said:
"If you have something to say, please speak clearly. Why are you hesitating so much?"
"...We, the subordinates, were ordered by the prince to protect the princess, but we saw her...enter a brothel on East Street."
Click.
There was a crack in the teacup in Xiao Changheng's hand.
Nanzheng was shocked:
"Do you know what it means to frame the princess?"
"How dare I! I saw the princess go in with my own eyes!"
The secret guard broke out in a cold sweat. Who would make up such a thing that could cost him his life?
"Prepare the sedan." A certain prince said expressionlessly.
"Yes!" Nan Zheng's eyelids twitched wildly, and he clearly felt that the air around the prince was freezing.
He didn't want to believe what the secret guard said, but... when he thought of the princess's previous unexpected and bold actions, he felt that she was really capable of doing it.
But the flower house...
Alas, Princess, when can you please let us have some peace of mind?
Nan Zheng took two steps forward, then turned around and said:
"Your Highness...the Princess is leaving in plain clothes. Why don't you...go incognito as well?"
Xiao Changheng sneered:
"Just use my usual carriage and bring five hundred palace guards!"
Nan Zheng was shocked: "This..."
"Hmm?" Xiao Changheng glanced at him indifferently.
"Yes, sir!" Nan Zheng was startled and hurried to make arrangements.
Princess, please be more submissive... If the prince gets angry, I'm afraid the entire brothel will be razed to the ground!
…
Tianxiang Pavilion.
"Miss, you are so majestic!" Qiao'er clapped her hands and smiled from ear to ear.
Yun Qingqing thought to herself that this was nothing. If her cultivation had returned to its original level, she wouldn't have to lift a finger to deal with these scumbags.
Mother Yu came back to her senses from her stunned state, and breathed a sigh of relief, but also worriedly said:
"Miss, you have offended the uncle of the king. He will not let it go and will definitely bring people to arrest you. You'd better leave quickly."
Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows and said:
"If he really returns with his men, then if I leave now, won't your Tianxiang Pavilion be in trouble? Aren't you afraid of the boss's blame?"
Mother Yu's expression paused, and just as she was about to speak, a soft sigh suddenly came from above the stairs.
"Well, this place should have closed long ago anyway. I can't just throw a beautiful girl like you into danger just to survive for a few more days."
Yun Qingqing looked up and saw a woman with a graceful figure, fair skin and rosy cheeks walking down slowly. She was wearing a light gauze dress that swayed with her steps, making her posture even more graceful.
However, on that beautiful face, there was a scar running from the left eyebrow across half of the face, making it look hideous and terrifying.
Yun Qingqing felt a slight palpitation in her heart. That was the original owner's emotion. It was probably because of her previous disfigurement experience that she felt a sense of sympathy with this woman.
"Boss!" Mother Yu came forward and asked, "Why did you come down?"
"I heard the guests downstairs making noise, so I came to check what was going on. I didn't expect to see such a good show." The woman smiled softly with her hands covering her lips. Even though her face had a scary scar, she still exuded a lot of charm without realizing it.
Yun Qingqing looked at her in surprise:
"Are you the owner of Tianxiang Pavilion?"
I didn't expect that the owner of such a big brothel would be such a woman.
"My name is Mu Hongling. May I know what your name is?" The woman nodded slightly.
"Yun Qingqing."
Mu Hongling's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she said in surprise:
"Yun... Qingqing? There's only one Yun family in the Imperial Capital. Could you be the princess the Regent recently married?"
"Princess?" Mother Yu was shocked and quickly greeted. "I didn't realize it was the Regent Princess who came to visit. Please forgive me!"
"No need to be so polite, just treat me as an ordinary guest." Yun Qingqing said.
Mother Yu had a complicated look on her face, thinking that it was no wonder that she was not afraid of the king's uncle at all. However, it was really confusing for a princess to come to Tianxiang Pavilion.
Qiao'er's face was not very good. She pulled Yun Qingqing's sleeve and whispered:
"Miss, why did you reveal your true identity? This is a brothel..."
Although her voice was low, Mu Hongling still heard it and chuckled:
"Don't worry, I'm not that fond of gossiping. I just don't know why the princess came to my place."
Mother Yu finally remembered the important matter and immediately said:
"Boss, the princess said she can solve the problem in the room on the third floor!"
Mu Hongling's eyes flickered slightly, and without asking any more questions, she said directly:
"Come with me."
A few of them walked towards the third floor. It was very quiet along the way. There were only some girls watching out of curiosity. Apart from the prince's brother-in-law and his entourage whom she had kicked out before, there were no other guests.
When I reached the third floor, I found that the entire floor was deserted. All the doors were closed, the corridor was dimly lit, and even the air seemed a little colder than other places.
Mu Hongling stopped and looked at Yun Qingqing seriously:
"I've heard that both Xu Daru and Duke Ming said that the princess is capable, but the problem I have here may be different from what you've encountered before. If the princess is unsure, there's no need to force it."
Yun Qingqing smiled calmly:
"She's not a ghost yet, so she's not dangerous. Leave her to me."
Mu Hongling's eyes widened slightly, and she stared at her for a moment, her expression a little more respectful than before. She turned around and gestured, saying:
"Princess, please."
Yun Qingqing glanced at Qiao'er, who was cowering with her arms folded, and patted her head with a smile:
"Just wait here for a moment. I'll go take a look."
As she spoke, she followed Mu Hongling towards the innermost room.
