"What a disgrace! Take her away now!" Zhu Zheng said angrily.
Cui Lijun didn't dare say anything more.
He quickly took Zhu Jinyue away with the other maids.
This move really angered Xiao Yucheng.
This thank you was not enough, and we really became enemies.
Zhu Zheng quickly knelt down and apologized, tears streaming down his face.
However, it did not dispel Xiao Yucheng's anger.
Xiao Yucheng waved his sleeves and said, "Since the Zhu family is so committed to forming a marriage alliance with my family, then let your daughter marry me, the long-servant!"
His legitimate daughter was married to Xiao Yucheng's follower. This incident would make him a laughing stock in the entire capital!
But no matter how ridiculous it was, he would rather be laughed at than offend the Marquis of Yongchang.
Otherwise, let alone his official hat, he would even lose his head!
Zhu Zheng, sweating, quickly agreed.
Because he was kowtowing and apologizing, Zhu Zheng didn't see the dark look in the eyes of the attendant wearing a bamboo hat...
…
This long-time attendant was not an ordinary attendant of Marquis Yongchang.
He is the current emperor of Song Dynasty, Mu Qingshen.
The Song Dynasty and the Mongolian Tartars in the north have always been at odds.
However, there was a peace treaty between the Song Dynasty and Mongolia, and neither side could conduct large-scale military exercises.
Recently, secret reports have been received stating that Mongolia is secretly training its troops.
As an emperor, Mu Qingshen certainly couldn't sit idly by.
Therefore, he was secretly preparing for war in Yangzhou.
On the way back, he was ambushed by Mongolian bandits disguised as merchants and was wounded by an arrow in the back.
His identity cannot be revealed.
The imperial court announced that the Emperor of Song Dynasty went to the palace to take a hot spring bath.
In fact, Mu Qingshen disguised himself as Xiao Yucheng's personal attendant and was recuperating outside.
Even though my injury hasn't healed yet, I still have to put on a good show.
He also knew the intention of Xiao Yucheng's plan -
It didn't really mean that he would marry the second daughter of the Zhu family as a long-time attendant.
But there is a reason to recuperate here.
I would also like to take this opportunity to warn Zhu Zheng not to dream of useless things.
Being an honest official and thinking carefully about how to serve the court is the only way to get promoted.
"I, the long-time attendant, will stay in the Zhu Mansion and allow him to develop a relationship with your daughter."
"I will come to pick him up in a month."
"Master Zhu, if even a hair of my servant falls, your Zhu Mansion will be in trouble!"
If Mu Qingshen stayed with Xiao Yucheng, he would easily be discovered by someone with ulterior motives.
It’s better to stay in this small place like Zhu Mansion, which is safer after all.
Zhu Zheng agreed with tears in his eyes.
…
This matter soon reached Zhu Jinyue's ears.
She had just applied the medicine and burst into tears again.
She cried so hard that she actually broke out a front tooth.
Zhu Jinyue didn't care about her front teeth and could only protest: "I don't want to marry a servant! I am the legitimate daughter! How can I marry a servant? If this matter gets out, how can I face people?!"
"Good Jin'er, please don't say that! If the Marquis of Yongchang gets to know this, our Zhu Mansion will be in trouble!"
Cui Lijun had never expected that things would develop into this situation!
It would be better if Zhu Xianyue could also go to the front yard...
Oh, right, Zhu Xianyue!
"Give orders to have that young master stay at the Misty Rain Pavilion."
Yanyu Pavilion is the attic next to Yingchun Pavilion.
And there is always someone cleaning the place, so it is very clean.
After a pause, he continued, "Pick out some good things from the warehouse and send them over. Don't neglect the young master."
That young man is Xiao Yucheng's man.
Zhu Jinyue stopped crying immediately.
By arranging that young man to live next door to Zhu Xianyue, what mother meant was...
