Chapter 430 Apology
Lin Miaoyin frowned, feeling extremely anxious. After thinking carefully, she felt that Beigong You would not spread that word, but she could not suppress the annoyance in her heart.
Her face was gloomy, and she looked at Aunt Wu with an icy voice: "If you have any problem with me, go talk to Beigong You. Now, get out of my way!"
Nanny Wu sneered coldly and raised her hand casually. Immediately, a servant stepped forward and blocked Lin Miaoyin's way. "Miss Lin, is it because the princess is too lenient to you that you have completely forgotten the difference between superior and inferior, and between master and servant?"
Lin Miaoyin looked at the person who stopped her, her face instantly turned extremely ugly, her hands trembled slightly unconsciously, and because of panic, her hands and feet became cold, and her fingertips were pale.
"Why don't you tell me what the difference is in this mansion, between superior and inferior, and between master and servant!"
Just when Lin Miaoyin was about to force her way in, Beigong You's voice came from the side.
The moment Lin Miaoyin saw him, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, and she immediately staggered forward.
Her face was filled with anxiety that she couldn't hide. Her brows were twisted into a knot and she was even breathless when she spoke: "Yuzhu is missing! Maidong went to look for her, but there's still no news!"
At this moment, her voice trembled slightly due to excessive nervousness, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
She and Nanny Wu made such a big noise outside. If Maidong was inside, he would definitely make some noise.
But no!
Seeing her like this, Beigong You's expression softened and he whispered to comfort her, "Don't panic, they will be fine. We have to trust Maidong's skills."
Nanny Wu refused to give up. She stepped forward and said to Beigong You, "Your Majesty, if she admits her identity as a princess, then she will naturally be respected in the Princess's residence! But her words and actions show that she has no relationship with you. You are the Princess's bloodline and your status is extremely noble. How can you allow her to humiliate you like this?"
Beigong You's face darkened, and he said coldly: "Then I think that you are humiliating me by speaking to my princess like this!"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand. Feng Ming understood and quickly drew out his sword. With a "swish", the sharp blade was directly placed on Nanny Wu's neck.
At first, Nanny Wu looked calm, thinking to herself that even if Prince Ning did not take the eldest princess' feelings into consideration, he should at least consider the young master's sake and would never really be cruel to her.
But at this moment, Beigong You nodded slightly, and Feng Ming's strength in his hand instantly increased a bit.
Nanny Wu only felt a sharp pain in her neck. She widened her eyes in horror and stared at Beigong You, her eyes full of disbelief. She never expected that His Royal Highness Prince Ning would actually attack her.
"Madam, are you still not going to let me go?" At this moment, Lin Miaoyin saw that Beigong You did not want to completely break up with Madam Wu, so she said at the right time, "Or did Madam do this on purpose? Your pity for Miss Yu has overshadowed your loyalty to the Princess? Could it be that Madam wants to use her own death to force the Princess to put pressure on the Prince to pity Miss Yu?"
Upon hearing this, Nanny Wu was horrified and blurted out: "Miss Lin, you——"
Before he could finish his words, Beigong You became impatient and snatched the sword from Feng Ming's hand. He approached Nanny Wu step by step, with the sharp tip of the sword almost embedding into her neck.
The air around them seemed to freeze. Everyone held their breath, nervously watching this tense scene, not knowing how this conflict would end.
"Princess, you are standing in front of my courtyard like this. Are you thinking of breaking into my courtyard and seeing if there are any of your people inside?"
While several people were arguing with each other, the door of the yard was suddenly pushed open with a bang.
Two maids were seen carefully supporting Yu Lingxiu as she walked out.
Yu Lingxiu was delicate, like a willow in the wind. She looked up at Lin Miaoyin, with a hint of subtle provocation in her eyes: "Since I dare to ask you to investigate, if there is no such person, do you dare to apologize to me in public?"
Lin Miaoyin was calm when she heard this.
In her view, an apology was just a small matter and would not hurt her self-esteem at all.
She looked calm, nodded slightly, and said in a clear voice: "Okay!"
Yu Lingxiu raised a cold smile, stepped aside to make room, and made a gesture of invitation: "Go ahead!"
Just as Lin Miaoyin was about to step in, Feng Ming behind her quickly stepped forward, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and saluted: "Princess, please let me go!"
Lin Miaoyin subconsciously looked at Beigong You, and when their eyes met, she saw him nod slightly in agreement, then she stepped aside and said softly, "Then I'll leave it to you!"
Feng Ming took the order and quickly entered the yard to search.
At this time, there was silence outside the courtyard, and everyone held their breath, as if even the air had frozen.
About half a cup of tea later, Feng Ming walked out of the yard. He looked solemn and slowly shook his head at Lin Miaoyin.
When Lin Miaoyin saw this, she felt her heart suddenly tighten, as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
"Princess?" Yu Lingxiu deliberately prolonged her tone, her voice full of provocation, and her face was filled with a smug look of watching a good show.
.
Lin Miaoyin looked calm, she just glanced at Yu Lingxiu calmly, and opened her lips slightly, about to utter the word "hug"...
At this moment, Nanny Wu suddenly stepped forward and stood firmly in front of Lin Miaoyin.
With a look of shame on her face, she humbly said, "Your Majesty just taught me a lesson! I really lack proper respect for the princess!"
After she finished speaking, she did not give Beigong You and Lin Miaoyin a chance to react. She quickly turned around and looked at Yu Lingxiu. Her tone was calm but unquestionable: "Miss Yu, if you have anything to say, why not ask the princess to come into your courtyard and discuss it in detail? What do you think?"
Lin Miaoyin frowned, feeling that it was unnecessary, and said, "It's just an apology, I——"
But before she could finish her words, Nanny Wu interrupted her again anxiously: "There are some things that the princess is magnanimous and doesn't care about, but you have to consider the prince's face!"
Hearing this, Lin Miaoyin subconsciously glanced at Beigong You beside her, only to see that he frowned slightly and looked a little unhappy.
Her gaze then turned to Yu Lingxiu, only to see Yu Lingxiu looking at Beigong You with a face full of grievance, as if she had suffered a great injustice, but was willing to endure it silently for him.
Seeing this, Lin Miaoyin thought about it in her heart and finally decided not to say anything.
Yu Lingxiu was originally full of resistance. She wanted Lin Miaoyin to make a fool of herself in public and lose face in front of everyone.
But when she met the cold warning in Nanny Wu's eyes, her heart sank, and after weighing the pros and cons, she had to compromise.
