Chapter 23 Betrothal Gift
Wangyue City had just experienced a war-torn period, and the little food left in the city was only enough for the people to survive for three days. After weighing the pros and cons, he decisively ordered the entire army to obey his orders, leaving a suicide letter to each family, and handing it to a special person to take it out of the city with the people. The other soldiers followed him out of the city gate, leading away the Hansha army, and doing their best to protect the safe transfer of the people in the city.
He and his brothers who had been through thick and thin together fought desperately in the army, just to give the people a glimmer of hope.
Later, he was shot by an arrow and fell into a coma.
When he woke up, he found that he was the only one left on the battlefield, surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of corpses. His brothers protected him in the middle, and there were piles of silver fox skins around him. Those were the skins he had hunted in the depths of the desert when they had won the battle.
Now, they gave all their hope of life to him.
After returning to the Imperial City, he personally sewed the silver fox fur into a silver fox cloak and carried it with him throughout the winter. Until that day, he put it on Yan Yunshu.
It represents his wish to give all his hope of life to Yan Yunshu, who is trapped in her inner demons, hoping that she can find her former self, struggle out of the mud, and make those who hurt her pay the price.
He hated her, but he couldn't let her go.
Even though he knew now that she wanted to drag him into the game and use him as a pawn, he was willing to do so!
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists tightly.
Ying Feng said, "Is Your Majesty worried about Miss Yan Yunshu? If so, I will go investigate..."
"No need for that. She can already turn the tables on herself now."
"Will the secret guards continue to follow?"
"with!"
"Oh! Then you just said it's not necessary!"
"Yingfeng! When did you become so talkative?!"
"Your Highness, please forgive me. I was really upset today on the beams of Caiyunfang."
Xu Jinghuai's face was full of black lines and he stopped talking.
Ying Feng continued tentatively, "Do you still report Miss Yun Shu's situation every day?"
"Ah."
"Your Majesty, what does 'hmm' mean?"
"report!"
Xu Jinghuai's face darkened even further. Yingfeng pretended not to notice. After a long silence in the carriage, Yingfeng suddenly seemed to think of something and spoke.
"Your Highness, the Phantom Light Pearl you asked your subordinates to find today has already been found on the black market. We'll see the real thing in three days, but it's ridiculously expensive."
"purchase."
"Your Highness, I don't understand why you went to so much trouble to get this night-shining pearl that only looks good but is of no use."
"I bought it to play with."
"..."
We have arrived at Prince Huai’s Mansion.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw the butler coming quickly.
"Your Highness, the betrothal gifts you requested yesterday have been prepared according to your request. However, I wonder if Your Highness has found the Ghostly Light Pearl on the list."
The housekeeper said as he took out a thick stack of notebooks.
"Please take a look at it, Your Majesty."
Xu Jinghuai felt uncomfortable thinking that Yingfeng was listening on the eaves. He quickly responded and took the list of betrothal gifts away.
Leaving Yingfeng stunned.
It turns out that the bead was given to the future princess, but what about what the prince said just now about buying it to play with?
On the other side, the main hall of the prime minister's residence.
Yan Yunshu was facing her father's wrath, but now behind her stood not only the Marquis' Mansion, but also the Second Prince and the Second Prince's Ministry of Justice. She became much calmer and composed.
However, no matter how calm she was, she could not escape her noisy and incessant father.
He kept repeating, "You evil creature! You beast! Do you know how much trouble you have caused?" He said it no less than ten times.
Yan Yunshu couldn't bear it anymore and could only say, covering her ears.
"Heh... I just left the mansion to look for the owner of the cloak. Why is Prime Minister Yan so angry? Could it be that he can't survive without me in this mansion?"
"Evil creature! Today, your sister Yao'er caught a cold while searching for you and is now bedridden! And you left the house just for a cloak!"
Yan Yunshu sat on the chair, looked at her father and aunt, and sneered.
"How ridiculous! Yesterday, because of a cloak, you accused me of stealing from the palace without any basis whatsoever. You lynched me without any evidence. I left the palace to seek the truth and clear my name. Is this wrong?"
"Don't talk about other things. Your sister is looking for you because you are sick, but you tell me something else. You deserve to die."
"If she can't find me, I'm doomed. My concubine's sister is so noble, someone who doesn't know her would think she is the Empress of Datianze!"
Yan Yunshu's smile became even colder.
Prime Minister Yan became even more enraged. His face flushed red as he continued to curse, "You evil creature! You have no respect for your elders, are narrow-minded, and cannot tolerate your younger sister. Your younger sister caught a cold while trying to find you and is bedridden, and you still dare to talk back to me."
"Master Yan, her coming to me is her business, not mine. You love your daughter so much, and if you want to find the one who deserves death, you should find her."
As she spoke, Yan Yunshu looked coldly at Aunt Zhu who was hiding behind the crowd.
Prime Minister Yan continued to point at Yan Yunshu's nose and curse, "She got sick because of you, you deserve to die!"
Yan Yunshu's face darkened. She stood up, walked up to the two of them, and said in a cold voice.
"Prime Minister Yan is absolutely right. My mother died while blocking an arrow for you. My mother's death was caused by you. You deserve to die, but why are you not only alive and well now, but also not even blamed for my mother's death?"
After hearing this, Prime Minister Yan obviously didn't know how to respond, so he simply sat down and drank his tea angrily.
Yan Yunshu refused to give in. "Yunshu only wants to ask you, my mother died because of you, do you deserve to die???"
"Get out!" Yan Xiang was furious, his veins popping out. "Get out of here to the woodshed! You're not allowed to come out without my permission!"
Hearing the word "firewood room", Yan Yunshu smiled.
Look, her partner Xu Jinghuai came in handy so soon.
"If Lord Yan imprisons me in the woodshed today, the Ministry of Justice will come looking for my father tomorrow to punish you for child abuse."
"The Ministry of Justice is such an important place, how can a girl like you commandeer it at will? You really don't know your place!"
Yan Yunshu patted her cloak lightly, her eyes cold.
"This cloak belongs to His Royal Highness the Second Prince."
Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Yan was shocked. His Royal Highness the Second Prince had not worn armor since the Battle of Wangyue City, but had been in charge of the Ministry of Justice. If what Yan Yunshu said was true, the cloak was real, and the Second Prince really cared about Yan Yunshu, then it was still possible that the Ministry of Justice would come to look for her tomorrow.
He was shaken and frightened by Yan Yunshu.
He could only point at Yan Yunshu and angrily said, "When children are naughty, it is natural for parents to discipline them. How can you bring them to the Ministry of Justice?"
Yan Yunshu snorted coldly, "Prime Minister Yan, you are not worthy of being the steward of the family's children."
"You, you, your sister is still bedridden..."
Yan Yunshu laughed.
"Yes. Tomorrow, when someone from the Ministry of Justice arrives, you can tell them that the concubine's daughter took it upon herself to look for the legitimate daughter who was out on business, causing her to catch a cold. And you, the great Prime Minister Yan, have imprisoned the legitimate daughter in the firewood room because of this. This way, you can prove that Prime Minister Yan is abusing his children. Very good..."
