Chapter 994: Secret Deal, Defrauding Enemies

No one except the people in the Ye Palace, Yun Mujiu's relatives and friends, such as the Meng family, Bai Yanshuang, Princess Ji Ling, and You Luoyan, knew about the mysterious deal between Yun Mujiu and Yun Xiang and his daughter.

For this reason, the people in the palace and even the court did not know that Yun Mujiu had seized control of the Yun family by treating Yun Shirou. They thought that Yun Xiang was confused by Yun Mujiu and fell into her trap, so Yun Xiang was stupid enough to cancel the marriage with Meng and sever the father-daughter relationship with Yun Mujiu.

The emperor is now confused - why did Prime Minister Yun go to the Night Palace to admit his mistakes and beg for mercy, asking Yun Mujiu to forgive his past mistakes?

Eunuch Li's eyes rolled, and he immediately stepped forward, taking the initiative to relieve the emperor's worries. He guessed - could it be that Prime Minister Yun wanted to ease the relationship with King Ye and Princess Ye, and use the relationship of family affection to regain control of Princess Ye? After all, Prime Minister Yun was confused a few days ago, and actually signed a divorce letter to Meng, and severed the father-daughter relationship with Princess Ye!

The emperor thought it made sense, but even if Prime Minister Yun was considering him, he was not satisfied with Yun Xiang's decision to act first and report later, and he was even more dissatisfied with the fact that Yun Xiang had messed things up.

In addition, Ye Xiaohan sent a message into the palace, pointing out Yun Xiang's crime of gathering a crowd to cause trouble in front of the Prince's Mansion, and reminded Yun Xiang that there was still a punishment that had not been implemented, as well as the fact that Yun Shirou had left the mansion without permission.

The emperor was so angry that he slammed the table. He could only follow Ye Xiaohan's thoughts and issue relevant punishments to Yun Xiang and his daughter overnight.

That night, the people in the Yun Mansion had a very uneasy time.

As a result, some people also had trouble sleeping all night. The Night King's actions today also made many people in the capital feel uneasy. Some officials thought: The Night King had just suppressed Xu Houshan and his group recently, and now he has taken action against Yun Xiang. Will it be their turn to suffer soon?

For a moment, people's hearts were in turmoil. This night in the capital was destined to be uneasy.

And — — Zhongyue’s border was not peaceful either, there was a problem on Zhongyue’s border! At this time, the messengers from the border were on their way back to the capital, carrying the urgent military report from 800 miles away.

...

Early the next morning, the farce that happened in front of Prince Ye’s mansion yesterday spread quickly throughout the capital and to places further afield.

People talked about how Prince Ye protected Princess Ye and sent out the personal guards of Prince Ye's mansion to teach Prime Minister Yun and others a lesson. It was really satisfying! Over the past six months, as scandals related to the Yun Mansion continued to spread, people had no good feelings towards the left prime minister Zhong Yue and even the people in the entire Yun Mansion.

Some of them were officials who had been suppressed by Yun Xiang, and some were enemies that Ye, Yun Shirou, and Yun Jingyu had offended after years of arrogant behavior. Regardless of which side they were from, they now viewed Yun Xiang and others with the intention of having fun.

Yun Xiang went to the gate of Prince Ye's mansion and caused trouble, which disturbed Princess Ye. Prince Ye then reported the incident to the Emperor.

The emperor issued an order overnight, giving Yun Xiang the "punishment" that was reserved for last time and giving him a beating with a stick.

Just like that, with his old injuries not yet healed, Prime Minister Yun suffered new injuries added to his old ones, and now he couldn't even get out of bed, let alone dare to dream of returning to court.

These days, Prime Minister Yun has not been allowed to attend court, and he is not in good health to attend court. The Emperor has begun to promote other confidants and let them gradually replace the position of the Left Prime Minister.

While Yun Xiang was being caned, Yun Shirou was also not spared from punishment.

She had left the Yun residence without permission, violating the order to confine the residence, and was punished with a caning for this. A new caning made her already damaged body even more broken. Even if she had a great grudge against Yun Mujiu, she would not dare to rashly look for Yun Mujiu.

At this time, Yun Shirou was lying on the bed, and she did not forget to shout a few times at the top of her lungs: "Damn it! I want revenge! I want revenge!"

She just yelled a few words. If she were asked to really go out again now, she wouldn't dare to do so.

When Yun Shirou was shouting in anger, another maid with a bruised face came in.

It turned out that Yun Mujiu had someone bring some health-preserving medicine for Yun Shirou.

During these days, Yun Mujiu would send some recuperation medicine to Yun Shirou every once in a while, saying that Yun Shirou could take some recuperation medicine before the operation so that her body could meet the basic conditions for the operation.

Yun Shirou looked at the medicine bags and felt a wave of nausea rising from her throat. When she thought of those extremely bitter medicines, she couldn't help but vomit them out.

This time, she thought for the first time. Was Yun Mujiu deliberately making trouble for her? Every time he prescribed her medicine, it was so bitter that she was in great pain every day. Every time she took the medicine, it felt like it was going to kill her!

Moreover, these herbs are said to be able to help her recuperate, but they may not necessarily bring about significant improvement in her health. Perhaps these medicines are only specifically used to treat the lower body, and she will not be able to gain other healing benefits from them, such as nourishing her weak body, or allowing some old injuries on her body to have some rehabilitation effects, or helping to remove some scars on her body.

In other words, Yun Shirou's original plan to rely on the medicine prescribed by Yun Mujiu to get corresponding therapeutic effects in other aspects was dashed.

That is, Yun Mujiu promised to treat whatever she wanted and would never provide her with any other treatment.

Yun Shirou looked at the medicines and clenched her teeth in anger. She yelled and snatched the medicine bag from the maid, then began to tear the butter wrapper and the herbs inside the paper frantically.

If Yun Mujiu saw Yun Shirou's angry look, he would definitely laugh.

Just talk nonsense... Just talk nonsense...

She has plenty of these herbs, and they are very cheap, so she can get as much as she wants.

The Yun Residence was in chaos. Yun Xiang and his daughter were seriously injured and bedridden. The others were not much better off. They all had bruised faces and noses, all from being beaten by the people from the Ye Palace yesterday.

Outside the Yun Mansion, people on the street were discussing the interesting things they had learned.

Yesterday, all the people in the Yun Mansion were arrested by the officials and taken to the yamen. They were tried by the newly appointed Dali Temple Shaoqing Chen Sheng, who reprimanded them for their disorderly behavior and punished the servants and followers of the Yun Mansion.

As for Yun Xiang and Yun Shirou, when the emperor's punishment order arrived, they were beaten in public at the gate of the yamen.

The two performances yesterday were truly extraordinary. The personal guards of the Night Palace beat up Yun Xiang and his group in public on the street in front of the palace, while the people from the government office executed them in public at the gate of the government office.

After the two fighting scenes, it gave people in the capital some topics to talk about after dinner.

At the same time, the ridiculous scenes of Yun Xiang and Yun Shirou also gave everyone more material to comment on. Anyway, they were not afraid of being retaliated against by them, so of course they could speak freely.

In the past, people had been discussing Yun Mujiu as a useless and ugly woman, but now the situation has reversed. Yun Mujiu has become the object of everyone's praise, while Yun Shirou and others have become rats crossing the street that everyone despises.

Yun Mujiu, through her own efforts, made the world recognize what kind of person she really is. She is definitely not a useless lady. She is good at both literature and martial arts. She can practice medicine, martial arts and business. She is not the ugly woman who is laughed at, nor is she the waste who is despised.

She is herself, Yun Mujiu, and that's all!
