Song Ziyu hurriedly sent someone to call for Madam Yuan, temporarily putting the matter of Mr. Yun Que out of his mind.
As they passed Yun Que's carriage, Pei Xuan seemed to slow his pace, tapping the carriage lightly with his folding fan before following Song Ziyu into the mansion.
His Highness the Crown Prince's arrival caused a sensation in the General's Mansion.
After Song Ziyu settled Pei Xuan, he thought of Mr. Yun Que again and was about to go find him when he saw Steward Zhao hurrying over.
"General, Lan You and Zhu Qing are making a huge scene, smashing things all over the place. This old servant really can't stop them. If you don't go soon, I'm afraid we'll disturb the distinguished guests in the front courtyard."
Song Ziyu was furious and muttered a few curses.
“There is a Mr. Yun Que at the table. Find him yourself and tell him that I have urgent business to attend to and that I will personally accompany him later.”
After saying that, he hurriedly went to the backyard.
Butler Zhao could not find Mr. Yun Que.
It wasn't because of Jiang Wan's instructions, but because Yun Que didn't dare to enter the door at all.
He was sitting in the carriage at this moment, and his face turned slightly pale, as if he was thinking about something.
The attendant asked in confusion, "We've finally made it this far, aren't you going in, sir?"
Yun Que lifted the carriage curtain, looked at the magnificent plaque at the entrance of the General's Mansion, and said with a heavy expression: "Turn around, leave this place, and never come near it again."
He had come to Wangyue Tower at the invitation of the authorities, but had not seen Song Ziyu. In his anger, he originally intended to come to the General's Mansion to argue with him.
Unexpectedly, a guard appeared halfway and stopped him, subtly warning him not to approach Song Ziyu.
Judging from the guard's tone, his master was of extraordinary status, and Yun Que even saw the imperial palace badge on the guard's waist.
Yun Que did not want to offend the important people in the capital, so as to be cautious, he did not insist on going to see Song Ziyu.
In the following days, things were calm, but the more he thought about it, the stranger it seemed, and he suspected that he had been tricked.
Having heard that Lieutenant Li had been invited to a banquet at the General's Mansion, he specially chose today to visit him, hoping to take this opportunity to find out more about the Song family.
Unexpectedly, before they could even meet Song Ziyu, the Crown Prince himself arrived.
The knocking sounds coming from the carriage were like thunderclaps exploding in Yun Que's mind.
He had suspected that the guards that day were a minister or a prince's personal guards, but he never expected that they were actually the subordinates of Crown Prince Yongning!
Perhaps... Pei Xuan's actions just now were a warning to him about his restlessness.
Yun Que's face was grim as he gave the order.
"Pack your things, I'll leave the capital tonight. I'm going to stay at my estate in Pingcheng for a while."
If you've offended someone you can't afford to offend, you should stay far away from them.
