Chapter 41. Two People Who Hate Yunhua
When Duke Ningguo staggered back to his seat, he seemed to have lost all his energy and spirit in an instant.
His usually straight back was now hunched a little.
He looked at Yunhua deeply, and quickly suppressed the resentment in his eyes.
He was already dissatisfied with Yunhua's appointment as an official in the court, and now he was causing the Ningguo Mansion to decline.
[Xiao Huahua, Duke Ningguo hates you.] The Book of Life and Death flew over Yunhua's head, and he looked at the old man with a sinister look.
Yunhua felt a little wronged.
"He's got a problem, right? It wasn't me who made his daughter cheat on the Emperor, nor was it me who insisted on the Emperor investigating this matter. Now that things have gotten to this point, he still hates me?"
The Book of Life and Death pursed its lips, spreading its wings. "Who made you meet him? This kind of person won't look for faults in themselves, but will always blame others for all the mistakes. That's why the daughter he raised has no sense of propriety, honor, or moral integrity."
When Yun Xiaotian heard that Duke Ningguo was jealous of Shang Yunhua, he couldn't help but frown.
This old guy likes to play dirty tricks. His daughter's carefree personality can easily lead to her suffering. It seems that he needs to do something in advance!
No one expected it.
At this morning's court session, the final winner will be Yunhua.
From a seventh-rank historian, he was promoted to the fifth-rank deputy director of the Imperial Observatory.
They couldn't even imagine such a speed of promotion!
"Master Xiaoyun, congratulations, congratulations!"
"Lord Yun is blessed. Your daughter is young and promising. From now on, we will have another capable and capable general in the court."
Lord Xu walked up with a smile in his eyes. There was no jealousy in his expression, and he was congratulating from the bottom of his heart.
It’s just a pity that his successor as historian was poached to other departments.
"Congratulations, everyone."
Yun Xiaotian replied with a smile, looking proud of it.
There is basically no problem with my younger daughter’s official position, so I just have to wait for my eldest son’s imperial examination next year.
Duke Ningguo was supported by someone as he walked out. As he listened to the compliments, a barely perceptible sneer flashed across his lips.
"Humph, Master Xiaoyun's promotion is really fast. Be careful that you won't stay in that position for long."
His voice was hoarse and tinged with sarcasm, which was particularly harsh amid the lively congratulations.
Starting tomorrow, he will stay indoors for six months to reflect on his mistakes.
The court is full of unpredictable changes. When he steps in, will there still be a place for him?
Thinking of this, Duke Ningguo clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves tightly, and looked at Yunhua with a gaze as cold as ten thousand years of ice.
"Lord Xiaoyun, I wonder if you've ever heard that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. The emperor can pamper you one moment and chop off your head the next. I hope you'll take care of yourself."
When everyone heard this, they instantly became quiet!
Yun Xiaotian's originally smiling face immediately turned gloomy.
How could his little girl let others interfere? If he wasn't old, he would have wanted to beat the person up himself!
This damn old thing.
"Oh."
Yun Xiaotian sneered, "Don't bother the Duke to worry about that. My little girl's head is very strong, and it's welded tightly." Whenever he thought of the magic weapon on his daughter's body, there was pride between his brows.
It was so strong that even a knife could break it in two without hurting her at all.
"Your Majesty, if you have the time to meddle in other people's affairs, why not take advantage of this six-month period of seclusion to teach your son a lesson? Otherwise, the Emperor may not agree to confer the title of Crown Prince on you."
"By then, the Ningguo Mansion will really be without successors..."
"Shut up, old man!"
Duke Ningguo's soft spot was touched and he was shaking with anger. He stared at Yun Xiaotian with his deep eyes. His son was not doing well, but it was not his turn to say anything about him.
He would ask for the title of Crown Prince even at the risk of his life!
"Yun Xiaotian, just wait for me, I..."
"Me? Duke Ning, what else do you want to say?"
Prince Su was delayed for some time due to other matters. As soon as he left the palace, he saw Duke Ningguo making harsh remarks to his future in-laws.
This old man still has the leisure to quarrel now. It seems that he is not sad.
When Duke Ningguo heard Prince Su's voice, he trembled, flicked his sleeves, and turned away.
He didn't know why Prince Su always went against him.
When Prince Su saw the annoying guy leave, he was just about to say hello to the girl when she was taken away by the bastard Yun Xiaotian.
Oh!
He doesn't bother with this bastard.
The news of Yunhua's promotion soon spread back to the Yun Mansion.
Cui Wanxin was so excited that her eyes were full of smiles. She kept shouting, "Rewards, everyone will get rewards. All the servants in the mansion will get three months of silver!"
This is a great thing.
Whose daughter can serve as an official in the court, whose daughter will be promoted to the fifth rank within a month!
Cui Wanxin pursed her lips and smiled.
Oh, it turns out it’s her house!
The news of the reward spread throughout the mansion in an instant. The servants were stunned at first, and then burst into cheers, "Thank you, Madam, for the reward!"
"The fourth young lady is really amazing!"
"Yes, yes, being able to work in the Yun Mansion is a blessing from my ancestors. I have a little sister who is so envious of me."
"There are four sets of clothes for each season of the year."
"Of course not. Our master is kind and will not punish his servants casually. He also provides a lot of benefits."
Voices of thanks came from all directions, and the entire Yun Mansion was in an uproar.
The first thing Cui Wanxin wanted to do was to go to the ancestral hall to report to her ancestors.
But when I think about last night...
Forget it, I’ll go in a few days!
She waved her hand lightly and quickly called to the housekeeper who came to report: "Go and pick out the best ingredients in the mansion and cook all the dishes that the fourth young lady likes. Also, bring out a few jars of the precious wine."
"By the way, give orders to decorate the main hall nicely and make it festive."
As soon as Yunhua returned to the Yun Mansion, he was shocked by the grand scene!
"Mom, who in our family is getting married?"
Otherwise, why would even the red silk cloth be hung up?
Cui Wanxin glared at her.
Sisters Yun Ya and Yun Wei covered their mouths and laughed so hard!
[Stupid, you got a promotion, your mother is celebrating for you!]
Yunhua suddenly realized, and then was taken to the main hall by Cui Wanxin holding her hand.
A large group of people greeted us enthusiastically at the door, and then left happily.
Only Yun Xiaotian was left standing there stupidly.
no!
Is he, the head of the family, so unwelcome?
Yun Xiaotian sighed and could only follow the team silently.
The family sat at the Arhat table, clinking their wine glasses, smiling happily, in a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
And on the other side is the Lin Mansion.
Lin Wanyue was sitting leisurely in the octagonal glazed pavilion in the backyard at this time. Freshly brewed tea was placed on the stone table, and the fragrance of tea wafted into her nostrils.
She was the legitimate daughter of the Lin family, so naturally she would not copy the damn "Female Rings" herself.
But when she thought about being banned for three months and not being able to go out and meet the third prince, she hated it so much.
Her nails dug deep into her flesh, but she seemed to feel no pain at all.
"Miss, this is freshly brewed Biluochun, please try it."
The maid's voice brought her back to her senses. Lin Wanyue raised her hand to take the teacup, gently blew away the cool air, and planned to take a sip, forcing herself not to think about that little bitch Yunhua for the time being.
She has three months to plan slowly.
Just then, another maid rushed in.
"Miss, something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!"
