After traveling through time, she just wanted to eat, drink and have fun
Chapter 18 Something Happened to Prince Jing
Seeing her kneeling there, still sobbing and aggrieved, Zhu Yu suddenly felt impatient. She clapped her hands, stood up, and said to Xiaoying, "It's no use talking to her. Just send her away as you said."
She had done the most she could. She had no obligation to her in the first place. Helping her was out of kindness, but it was okay if she didn't help for her own safety. As for what others thought or what Ai Yun thought, it was none of her business.
In this way, the Sakura duo dragged Ai Yun, who was lying on the ground begging and not wanting to leave, out. When they got to the yard, they really couldn't hold her back, so they called Jiaozi and Yuanxiao to help them send Ai Ying out of the Prime Minister's Mansion through the side door. Before leaving, they did not forget to bring her three days of food. Ai Ying, who was sent out of the mansion, stared blankly at the package in her hand for a while, and left in a lonely manner. When she turned around, no one saw the gloom that flashed across her eyes.
As soon as Ai Yun was dragged out to eat wontons, Zhu Yu and his friends started to set the table. Zhu Yu was attracted by the aroma of the food and instantly forgot what happened just now. As a result, before she finished her meal, Zhu Wenyun sent someone over to say that she had something urgent to discuss with her. Zhu Yu put down her chopsticks, grabbed a chicken leg, and walked towards Zhu Wenyun's study while eating.
"Dad, what's the emergency?" Zhu Yu said as he picked up a piece of rice paper on Zhu Wenyun's desk to wipe the oil off his hands. Zhu Wenyun couldn't help but twitch his eyes a few times when seeing this, because this was the top-quality rice paper given to him by Lord Zhang.
Zhu Wenyun: "Come, come, dear, come and sit next to daddy first."
Zhu Yu walked over and sat on the chair next to Zhu Wenyun, continuing to wipe his hands while looking at him and waiting for him to speak.
Zhu Wenyun couldn't help but glance at Zhu Yu's hand. He took a deep breath to calm himself down, then said to Zhu Yu seriously, "My dear, you have to be mentally prepared. I'm afraid it's not easy to cancel your marriage with Prince Jing."
Zhu Yu: ???
Didn’t Prince Jing say before that he could retire as soon as he came back? Why is it still not so easy to retire now?
Zhu Wenyun: "The news just came from the palace that Prince Jing encountered an assassin on his way out of the city last night and was seriously injured. He has been in a coma ever since. The imperial physician said that the chances of him waking up are slim, and even if he wakes up, he won't be able to walk."
Zhu Yu: "I can tell at a glance that he didn't do anything good."
Zhu Wenyun looked at Zhu Yu with a look of regret: "My dear, it was Daddy who harmed you. If Daddy hadn't asked the Emperor for a marriage every day, I wouldn't have pushed you to the point of provoking Prince Jing."
Zhu Yu: "Dad, don't say that. As a father, you are very good to your daughter. You can't be blamed for this. Things have come to this point, and no one can do anything about it. You are more knowledgeable than your daughter. I will listen to your opinions on what to do next."
Zhu Wenyun sighed with emotion: "My sweet baby has grown up without me noticing."
Zhu Yu: Don’t be happy too soon. If what you say is wrong, I will definitely not listen.
After coming out of Zhu Wenyun's study, Zhu Yu was still doing what she had to do. What a joke! What could she do? She didn't have any medical skills and couldn't save people. She might as well live a carefree life day by day.
After Zhu Yu returned to his own courtyard, he first took the account book he brought back from the farm to find Aunt Lin, and compared the things in the farm with her. He also told her about the little beggar he picked up and then sent away. Aunt Lin was very sensible. Although she thought in her heart that Zhu Yu should not have been involved in the cause and effect of the little beggar from the beginning, she did not tell her. After all, her identity was there, and she did not qualify as the legitimate daughter of the church.
When she was about to go to Zhu Wenyun's house for dinner in the evening, Zhu Wenyun's servants hurried to her yard and told her that Zhu Wenyun asked her to pack up as soon as possible and go to the palace with him, and also reminded her to dress simply.
Zhu Yu asked Xiaoying to send the servants back to report, and asked Xiaohua to dress her up little by little. While she was dressing her up, she muttered, "What's going on? There's no peace and quiet every day." Then she saw Xiaoying come in through the curtain, and immediately said, "Xiaoying, go to the kitchen and take out six of the thousand-shredded pork buns I asked them to make for me to eat in the carriage. I guess they won't provide meals when we get to the palace. Oh, what's going on? I was thinking of having a late-night snack of roast duck after dinner at my father's."
After hurriedly washing up and getting on the carriage, Zhu Yu took the roujiamo wrapped in oil paper from Xiaoying and handed three to Zhu Wenyun first. Looking at the greasy oil paper, Zhu Wenyun instinctively felt a little resistant.
Zhu Yu: "Dad, eat some roujiamo to fill your stomach. There will be nothing to eat when we get to the palace. Don't starve. Don't worry, I asked Xiaoying to wet the plain handkerchief for wiping your hands."
Zhu Wenyun was touched to see her daughter being so thoughtful, so she took it.
The palm-sized roujiamo in Zhu Wenyun's hand was still warm. Unlike the steamed buns here, this one looked as crispy as a thousand-thread cake. When he took it, he used a little too much force and some crumbs fell off. He didn't know what the meat inside was stewed with, and it was paired with refreshing and spicy chopped green peppers. The indescribable fragrance made him want to take a big bite, but as a scholar, he still had character. He took a small bite carefully. Well, it was as delicious as he had imagined. The steamed bun was crispy, the elbow meat was soft and tasty, and the green peppers were sweet with a hint of spiciness, which cleverly relieved the greasiness of the meat. He ate while Zhu Yu was not paying attention and secretly stuffed one into his sleeve without paying attention to the grease.
After the father and daughter finished eating roujiamo, they sat in the carriage and began to discuss going to the palace.
Zhu Wenyun: "My dear, when you enter the palace later, if the emperor says something that you don't like, don't talk back, just kneel down, and dad will know. Let dad negotiate with the emperor, and if you are willing, just bow to him and thank him. In short, no matter what happens later, dad will be there for you. Let dad handle it."
Zhu Yu was touched. Her father really treated her well with all his heart. She wiped Zhu Wenyun's hands carefully with the wet towel she received from Xiaoying and said, "Thank you, Dad."
When Zhu Yu arrived at the imperial study, he found a woman standing inside. The woman's clothes were similar to Zhu Qiaoqiao's, but her expression was different. No matter how plain Zhu Qiaoqiao's clothes were, she couldn't hide her playfulness. But the woman in front of him was different. She was wearing a plain dress with light green bamboo leaves embroidered on it. She was thin and had an indelible sadness on her face. She looked like a real and lovable sickly beauty. Zhu Yu thought to himself that he should let Zhu Qiaoqiao meet this woman and learn from her, instead of hanging around in front of her every day.
Seeing that everyone was gathered, the emperor sat on the dragon throne and spoke: "I believe you all already know about Prince Jing's affairs."
Emperor: You must know. I personally sent people to spread the news to you. If you dare to say you don’t know, just try it.
After getting the affirmation, he continued, "The doctors in the Imperial Hospital are doing their best to treat him, but I am still worried, so I went to see Master Liaowu. Master Liaowu said that we can try to let someone who is destined to be with Xian'er always be by his side. I thought that Xian'er and Liu Yinyin have a close relationship since childhood, so why not just grant you two a marriage? But then I thought about what Zhu Yu did some time ago, and the marriage with Xian'er is a clear path, and the only thing left is the granting of marriage, so I called you two over to listen to your thoughts. Liu Yinyin, you speak first."
When Liu Yinyin heard that the emperor asked her to speak first, she immediately fell to her knees. Zhu Yu's heart was relieved. She thought that she might have got the script of the vicious female supporting role. The relationship between the male and female protagonists was indestructible. When the male protagonist was seriously injured and unconscious, the female protagonist resolutely chose to marry the male protagonist. The two finally got their happy ending. However, she broke the engagement at such a critical juncture. Later, when the male protagonist recovered, she shamelessly pestered him and finally suffered the consequences. Well, that should be it. What she had to do was to follow the promise she made to Prince Jing before, go with the flow, and then disappear in front of the two of them as if she had disappeared, and reverse her fate as the vicious female supporting role.
While Zhu Yu was still imagining, Liu Yinyin had already kowtowed deeply and spoke with tears streaming down her face: "I, the daughter of a guilty minister, Liu Yinyin, thank the emperor for his willingness to help me."
Zhu Yu could hardly suppress the smile on her face. She thought to herself: Yes, just act like this, and then try to convince me. I am easy to convince.
But what Liu Yinyin said next made her realize what it meant: her heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally died.
