Long Live the Empress

"Stop!" Yue Jinghao walked out of the crowd, "How much silver does this gentleman want?"

The noble young man burped, looked Yue Jinghao up and down, and wanted to touch her face, but his hand was held by Nanny Hong.

"How dare you! Do you know who I am? Let me go!" The nobleman screamed in pain, "You are all dead, why don't you beat them to death for me!"

Upon hearing this, those young masters and servants immediately rushed towards Yue Jinghao with ferocious looks.

Yue Jinghao, however, remained calm and composed, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Prince Rong, tell me, if I tell Prince Rong about you peeping at Seventh Aunt taking a bath, how will he deal with you? Hmm?"

Rong Cheng was stunned for a moment, then he started to yell again, "How dare you slander me! I will beat you to death, you stinky girl who talks nonsense!"

"There is a book of exotic talks on your bookshelf. The core of the book has been hollowed out. Inside is the pink butterfly bellyband of the Seventh Aunt..." Yue Jinghao looked up at Rong Cheng, who was already dumbfounded. "I'm taking the person away. Please don't stop me, Prince Rong!"

Nanny Hong was very strong and easily carried Li Zhaoyu on her back, then followed Yue Jinghao and left the crowd.

The remaining young masters and servants were confused by Yue Jinghao's actions.

A young man stepped forward and said viciously, "Prince Rong, why did you let that stinky girl go like this?"

Rong Cheng glared at him and spat fiercely on the ground, "Get out of here! Don't you think I'm embarrassed enough?"

The crowd immediately scattered like birds and beasts...

Inside the hospital

The doctor treated the wound on Li Zhao's head and handed some medicine to Manjue, "Miss, this young man is fine. He will be fine after taking some medicine."

Manju took the medicine and looked at Li Zhaoyu who was still unconscious. "But why is he still not awake?"

The doctor coughed lightly and said, "This young man probably hasn't eaten for several days, so..."

To put it bluntly, he fainted from hunger! Agate turned away awkwardly and stopped looking at the doctor's face.

Nanny Hong bought a bowl of porridge and fed it to Li Zhaoyu bit by bit. He woke up before he finished the bowl.

Li Zhao looked at the unfamiliar environment and three strangers around him in a daze. He took out a burnt branch and a piece of straw paper from his sleeve and wrote something with trembling hands.

The agate was shown to Yue Jinghao, and there were words of thanks to Yue Jinghao written on it.

Yue Jinghao nodded, "Don't worry, sir. But today you offended Prince Rong of Prince Rong's Mansion. If he catches you again..."

Li Zhaoyu looked embarrassed. He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid of living a life worse than death. He was a man of seven feet tall, but he was sent to Yongle Lane to do that...

Yue Jing looked at his clenched hands and said, "Why don't you go to my daughter's farm outside the capital to recuperate? When you recover, I'm sure this matter will be settled. Then you can make plans. How about that?"

Li Zhaoyu pondered for a moment, then wrote on the paper, "I am Li Zhaoyu. Thank you for your arrangement, young lady. When I recover from my injury, I will definitely repay you for your kindness!"

Yue Jinghao spoke to him for a few more words, then instructed Lao Zheng to send Li Zhao to a farm outside Beijing and to take good care of him!

Yue Jinghao watched the carriage go away and prepared to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion. As soon as she turned around, she was stopped by Rong Cheng, who was drunk. Madam Hong was about to push Rong Cheng away, but was stopped by Yue Jinghao, "I wonder if Master Rong has any advice for me?"

Rong Cheng had a lot of questions in his mind and wanted to ask Yue Jinghao, but he didn't know where to start. "You...you..."

Rong Cheng hesitated for a long time but couldn't say anything. He looked so stupid. How could he still have the authority he had when he beat someone just now?

"Prince Rong wants to ask how I knew you were peeking..." Before Yue Jinghao could finish her words, Rong Cheng interrupted her hastily, "You...you are such a shameless girl, how can you say such things! Didn't your mother teach you the virtues and rules of being a woman?"

"I'm sorry, my mother passed away a long time ago. If you want to argue, Prince Rong, you can go to the underworld to find her!" Yue Jinghao smiled faintly, but the words she said made Rong Cheng feel uncomfortable.

Rong Cheng pointed at Yue Jinghao again, his hands shaking with anger, but seeing Yue Jinghao's expression remained unchanged, he could only withdraw his hand angrily, "How did you know?"

"Seventh Aunt is younger than Prince Rong, so it's no surprise that Prince Rong has such thoughts about Seventh Aunt... About hiding the bellyband..." Yue Jinghao looked at Rong Cheng, who was originally arrogant, and now blushed. She felt very amused, "Men of Prince Rong's age like to read exotic gossip. The most dangerous place is also the safest... Prince Rong, am I right?"

Rong Cheng stared at Yue Jinghao who was analyzing the situation clearly. It was terrifying that the woman in front of him could see through his thoughts! "You... who are you? How do you know I'm Rong Cheng?"

Yue Jinghao smiled and covered her lips. "Who in the whole capital doesn't know the reputation of Prince Rong? Although Prince Rong has not been involved in court affairs for many years, Prince Rong has earned a lot of reputation for Prince Rong."

What reputation? The reputation of being the evil young master of the capital! Rong Cheng wanted to get angry again, but the other party had the upper hand over him, so he had to hold back his anger, "You haven't told me who you are yet!"

Yue Jinghao bowed slightly to Rong Cheng, "My daughter, the Prime Minister's legitimate daughter Yue Jinghao, greets Prince Rong!"
