Nanxing chuckled when he saw her pitiful look.
"Let it go this time. In the future, be more observant. If you're unsure about something, ask Aunt Su, or Xia He and Chun Yu. If I'm home, you can ask me too."
And remember this: your mistress is a first-rank princess, and the prime minister's gatekeeper is a third-rank official. As the princess's gatekeeper, you must be at least a third or fourth-rank official. Stand tall and never back down, lest you embarrass your mistress, understand?
"Understood!"
Seeing that his master didn't want to send him away, the gatekeeper stopped crying and smiled, wiped away his tears, and went to guard the gate.
Xie Yushu was a little confused by Chu Mingzhu's sudden visit and antics. After thinking for a while, she decided to send Chunyu out to find out what Chu Mingzhu was up to this time.
Two hours later, Chunyu returned to report that Chu Mingzhu had told Xiao Yi yesterday that she would go to see him after she finished her work. She waited until dark but did not see Xiao Yi, so she became a little anxious.
The next morning, when the eunuch who was to deliver the imperial decree bestowing the marriage upon her came to deliver it, she couldn't help but ask, "Have you been to the General's mansion? Is the General at home?"
The eunuch who delivered the imperial decree was a servant of Consort Chu. He knew that the young man had a crush on someone and that he was constantly thinking about her. So, he held up the Chu Pearl and said...
"The General is at home, presumably he is happy to receive the Emperor's decree of marriage and has drunk a few more cups. When I went to deliver the decree, the General was still hungover!"
He was finally woken up by a servant, received the imperial decree, and then fell asleep again.
Upon hearing this, Chu Mingzhu ordered someone to double the reward money and gave her instructions.
"Since the general is drunk, please forgive him if he is negligent in any way!"
I stepped forward and quietly asked a question.
"I wonder where the Grand General's Mansion, bestowed by the Emperor, is located!"
"26 Fuyuan Street".
"Thank you so much, sir!"
Chu Mingzhu had long regarded Xiao Yi as one of her own, and had habitually assumed the role of the general's wife. Knowing that Xiao Yi was hungover, she saw off the eunuch who delivered the imperial decree, dressed herself up, and planned to go to the general's mansion to take care of Xiao Yi and show her virtuous and gentle nature.
At present, Xiao Yi's general's mansion has no gatekeepers, stewards, maids and servants, only a few personal guards and two beauties recently bestowed by the emperor.
So when Chu Mingzhu arrived, there was no one to guide her. Chu Mingzhu had to go into the mansion by herself. The general's mansion was a large courtyard with four courtyards, side courtyards, gardens and the like. Xie Yushu wandered around several places before she finally met a guard. After she gave her identity, the guard took her to Xiao Yi's courtyard.
After being woken up to receive the imperial decree, Xiao Yi was sober, but thinking of Xie Yushu's heartless attitude yesterday, he felt really bad. So he simply picked up the wine jar and drank two more jars. He felt that it was better to be drunk. When he was drunk, he didn't have to think about why things turned out this way, and he didn't have to feel that excruciating pain.
So, while Chu Mingzhu was taking care of him, wiping his face and feeding him hangover soup, he dazedly grabbed her hand and murmured...
"Yu Shu, you've forgiven me?"
I will definitely marry you back in style and glory!
Upon hearing this, Chu Mingzhu turned pale and angrily threw down her handkerchief, shouting...
“Brother Xiao Yi, that bitch Xie Yushu has already been divorced by your mother. I, Chu Mingzhu, am your rightful wife! Our marriage was arranged by the Emperor. Have you forgotten that? Why are you still thinking about her?”
We've known each other for ages, childhood sweethearts, have you forgotten all those feelings?
However, no matter how much she yelled, how unwilling she was, how heartbroken and disappointed, Xiao Yi didn't hear her; he was too drunk to hear anything.
Chu Mingzhu felt increasingly uneasy as he thought about it, so he called over his personal guard, who happened to be A-Ming, the one who had brought Xiao Yi back yesterday.
"Did Xie Yushu come to see Brother Xiao Yi yesterday? Why did Brother Xiao Yi keep calling out Xie Yushu's name?"
With a bit of guesswork, Amin figured out Xie Yushu's identity. The Chu Mingzhu in front of him was the newly betrothed general's wife. It seemed that his general was in love with the noble-looking woman from last night, but she had been divorced by the old lady.
But the person before him was chosen by imperial decree for their marriage.
Ugh! What a mess this is!
Seeing Ah Ming hesitate, his eyes darting around, but he wouldn't speak, Chu Mingzhu threatened...
"I am your general's rightful wife, the mistress of this general's mansion. If you dare to lie to me, believe me, the first thing I'll do after I marry you is kick you out!"
Amin wasn't a slave; he was simply skilled and brave in battle, which is why Xiao Yi had specifically chosen him to be his personal guard. Chu Mingzhu really didn't have the authority to decide his fate, but considering she was, after all, the general's wife, and out of respect for the general, she couldn't afford to openly disagree with her, so she replied coldly.
"No one came looking for the general; we just bumped into each other on the street!"
Chu Mingzhu was even angrier
"lie!
Kyoto is such a big place with so many people. Xiao Yi has only been back for a day, and they've already run into each other?
It must be Xie Yushu who saw Xiao Yi's rise to prominence and came knocking on his door!
snort! "
Chu Mingzhu was convinced that Xie Yushu knew she was a divorced woman and that no one would want to marry her except Xiao Yi, which was why she clung to Xiao Yi.
Enraged, he stormed out of the general's mansion and went straight to Xie Yushu's house.
That's why the scene just now happened.
Based on what Xie Yushu knew, she couldn't help but sigh that women in love have zero IQ, a fact that has remained unchanged since ancient times!
And she can sit here, drink tea, and listen to stories!
Okay! She's not good enough for me!
Last night, Xie Yushu and Xiao Yi bumped into each other on the road, and some passersby saw them. Today, Chu Mingzhu stormed in and was thrown out by Nanxing. Then, an imperial decree was issued to grant them a marriage. As a result, the melodramatic love triangle between the three of them immediately became the hottest topic in the capital and the primary topic of conversation.
Mrs. Han and Mrs. Han frowned as they listened.
"That Xiao guy is shameless!"
They've already received the imperial decree for the marriage, yet they're still dragging and pulling at that girl in the street, ruining her reputation!
Now, many people who don't know the truth are spreading rumors that Xie Yushu is shameless, seduced Xiao Yi, and disregarded imperial authority!
Does he realize that rumors are like invisible knives that kill without a trace? A woman with a weaker mind would have already slit her own throat by now!
Is this what a decent person should do?
So the next day, Han Wuyong impeached Xiao Yi and Chu Mingzhu in court for their improper behavior, insubordination, and offense against a first-rank princess!
Han Boyu then wrote a letter to his unjustly accused younger brother that very night, telling him that the person he was protecting like the apple of his eye was about to be bullied to death!
When Han Zhongyu received the letter, he was so angry that his hair almost stood on end and his rationality almost vanished. After finally finishing his business at the yamen, he dragged Chu Jinyu, who had just finished school, to his study and accused Xiao Yi of being a scoundrel, telling him to write a letter to his mother and not to let Xiao Yi deceive him!
He went back and wrote Xie Yushu a three-page "family letter".
They sent it to Xie Yushu overnight.
