Chapter 424 Quarrel
The eldest princess sat on the main seat, her posture dignified, but her face was filled with unquestionable majesty. She looked at Beigong You and spoke slowly: "Yu Xiuling suffers from a leg disease, and it will be difficult for her to find a good husband in the future. You should take her into your room, which can be regarded as making up for her mistake this time."
Beigong You heard this and sneered, his smile full of mockery: "It's just that he has a leg disease, it's not that he can't walk. There are so many men with leg diseases. If she wants a few, I can give her a few!"
His voice was clear, yet with a hint of unruliness, which seemed particularly abrupt in this quiet room.
The princess's face instantly turned livid, and she was so angry that she almost fainted. She stood up suddenly, her hands trembling slightly: "She is the daughter of the county lord. How can those commoners be worthy of her?"
Beigong You did not show any weakness and looked directly into the eyes of the princess: "Can I accept such a woman?"
The eldest princess was completely enraged. She slapped the table hard, and the crisp sound of "pa" echoed in the house: "I am your mother. I asked you to bring someone into the house without even needing your approval!" Her voice was sharp, with endless anger and majesty.
Beigong You looked at her indifferently, and said word by word: "As long as she dares to step into my yard, I can make her go from having a leg disease to having no legs at all!"
The look was icy cold, as if it could freeze a person.
The princess looked at Beigong You and felt a chill in her heart. She knew what her son said was true. She felt a black screen in front of her eyes and felt dizzy. "Get out! Get out of here!"
Beigong You didn't say another word, turned around and walked away.
Just as he was about to step out of the door, he suddenly paused, turned around to look at the eldest princess, and warned in a low voice: "People around Miaoyin, I advise you not to have other thoughts, otherwise I will take Youan and move out!"
When the princess heard this, she couldn't catch her breath and fainted.
Beigong You was about to step forward to help, but Nanny Wu in the room got there first like a gust of wind.
He looked at the court physician who had hurried over, and the maids who were anxiously shouting around the eldest princess. The corners of his lips unconsciously pursed slightly, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
However, just as he was about to go forward to check on the princess, he found that Nanny Wu, who should have been extremely anxious, had deliberately made way for him. He stopped in his tracks, looking at the princess's slightly trembling eyelashes, and instantly realized that he had been tricked again.
He sneered coldly, a laugh full of self-mockery and disdain, then turned around and left without hesitation.
The princess heard his footsteps as he left, and forced herself to open her eyes, only to see his ruthless back as he left. She could no longer suppress the rage in her heart, and cursed, "Evil creature!"
Then his eyes rolled back, and this time, he really fainted.
There was a bustle in the Princess's courtyard, but the chaos seemed to be blocked outside by an invisible barrier, and Lin Miaoyin knew nothing about it.
She was sitting leisurely in her yard, fiddling with a few newly opened flowers in her hands, the elegant fragrance of the flowers lingering around her.
Suddenly, she saw Beigong You walking towards her with a serious expression, hurried steps and a frown on his face. She vaguely guessed in her heart that the conversation between him and the eldest princess was probably not very harmonious.
"Don't worry, I've already told her about the medicinal herbs." Beigong You's voice was low and a little tired.
He originally planned to tell Lin Miaoyin word for word what the princess had said to him, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
He looked at Lin Miaoyin in front of him, thinking secretly in his heart, her feelings towards him are so indifferent now, even if he tells her, she will just be indifferent, why should he add to his troubles and make himself more depressed?
Lin Miaoyin looked calm when she heard this and nodded slightly. In her mind, the matter of the medicinal materials had been settled the last time she left the princess, and she didn't need to worry about it anymore.
Beigong You paused, then continued, "However, when I first went to the Princess' place, I heard Nanny Wu tell the Princess that Yu Lingxiu was planning to ask Yuzhu, who was by your side, to serve her."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Miaoyin's originally calm eyes suddenly became sharp, and the momentum around her suddenly changed. Her originally gentle temperament became more solemn and murderous: "What does she want to do?"
Beigong You shook his head slightly, his face full of confusion: "I don't know either. But I heard that the girl who confessed for her before has been with her since she was a child. Now she has set her sights on Yuzhu. It is obvious that she wants to take revenge on you."
Hearing this, Lin Miaoyin sneered, her smile full of self-mockery and regret: "Back then, I shouldn't have swallowed my anger so easily!"
There was a flash of regret in her eyes. If she had investigated the rumor thoroughly, she would have suppressed Yu Lingxiu completely and left her no chance of making a comeback. How could she be in such trouble today and still be able to jump around in front of her?
A hint of determination flashed in Lin Miaoyin's eyes. She ignored Beigong You and walked straight towards Youan's yard.
As soon as I stepped into Youan's yard, I saw Yuzhu standing quietly behind Youan.
Seeing this familiar scene, Lin Miaoyin breathed a sigh of relief, but the uneasiness in her heart had not dissipated, and her steps became more hurried.
Yuzhu was concentrating on grinding for Youan, while Youan was immersed in the book.
Hearing the hurried footsteps, they both looked up at the same time, their eyes full of confusion.
"Father?" Chu Youan's gaze passed over Lin Miaoyin's shoulder and looked behind her. Not seeing Beigong You, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
My father sent someone to invite my mother over, saying that there was something important to discuss. How come she came back so soon?
"Your father is busy and didn't come!" Lin Miaoyin changed the subject, her expression solemn, and said in a serious tone: "Yuzhu, from now on, you will stay with Youan. Unless I come to find you in person, even if Beigong You comes, you must not leave, understand?"
Yuzhu was startled by Lin Miaoyin's unprecedented serious expression. The smile on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by tension and worry: "Miss, what happened?"
Thinking of her young lady's difficult situation in the princess's mansion, her eyes became firm, "Is someone trying to threaten you with me? Young lady, just go and do what you want, I will never hold you back!"
Lin Miaoyin sighed, "No, I implicated you! When dealing with the rumors earlier, the princess pushed Yu Lingxiu's personal maid out as a scapegoat! Now she is biting everywhere like a mad dog because of her leg disease. I don't know why she has the idea again and wants you to be with her. I guess she wants to take revenge on me by tormenting you!"
Just serving people?
Yuzhu finally relaxed: "I am not afraid of this. I am just serving her. It is not a big deal! Miss, don't let this make it difficult for you to stay in the princess's mansion."
