After I traveled through the book, I fought back in the Hou Mansion

chapter Ten

This jade pendant is made of top-grade black jade, worth a fortune and extremely rare. It was accidentally obtained by the ancestors of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

After the two sons of the Zhongyong Marquis were born, the old Zhongyong Marquis cut and polished it with his own hands and engraved his grandson's name on it. The one with the word "Zhou" was the eldest son of the Zhongyong Marquis.

In the original novel, Luo Shuiyao was originally driven out of the mansion by the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, but the real culprit who caused her to fall into such a miserable situation was Ye Yunzhou, the eldest son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

However, it's no wonder Ye Yunzhou was so cruel to the original owner. Ever since Luo Shuiyao went to Shangjing, she had been fighting with the heroine in every way.

The original owner was obsessed with marrying into a wealthy family, even if it meant being a concubine. The first people he targeted were the two sons of the Zhongyong Marquis's mansion. She showed her affection to the Zhongyong Marquis's son, but for unknown reasons, he loathed her. He never showed her a friendly expression, but instead treated the heroine with great care.

After the original owner saw that it was hopeless to please Ye Yunzhou, she turned to please the second son, Ye Yunxing. However, the second son was not very happy with her either. He rarely paid attention to her, but only politely gave her some face.

Seeing this, she was furious and even listened to others' instigation and stole the Second Young Master's jade pendant, causing him to break both legs. It was because of this that Ye Yunzhou hated her so much.

However, at that time, she had not yet been completely abandoned by the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery and his wife, so the prince did not touch her. Later, she was driven out of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion and ended up in such a predicament. The fact that the playboy was able to find her was largely due to the prince of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion.

Luo Shuiyao took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in her heart. She must not be swayed by her emotions at this moment, and must remain calm and rational.

"What's wrong with you? Are you unwell?"

Ye Yunzhou looked at Luo Shuiyao and saw that she was smiling just now, but her face suddenly became so ugly. He couldn't help but frowned and asked lightly.

If Luo Shuiyao had raised her head, she would have caught the fleeting flash of concern in his eyes. However, she was so distracted at the moment that she didn't dare to look up at him, and naturally didn't notice the change in his expression.

Luo Shuiyao took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She forced a smile, but she still hadn't figured out how to face the person before her. Instinctively, she knew she couldn't show any emotion at this moment.

She responded softly, "I just suddenly felt a little unwell, it's nothing serious, let's enjoy the food quickly."

After saying that, she lowered her head and began to concentrate on eating the wontons in the bowl. When she smelled the aroma of the wontons just now, Luo Shuiyao was full of anticipation, but now it tasted like chewing wax, bland.

Seeing that she didn't want to say more, Ye Yunzhou pursed his lips and didn't ask any more questions. The atmosphere between the two of them became a little cold, and the relaxed atmosphere just now disappeared.

At this moment, Dujuan's voice came from the front: "Miss, Miss, where are you?"

Luo Shuiyao quickly stood up, waved at her and said, "I'm here!"

She turned her back to Ye Yunzhou and tried her best to calm herself down. Then she turned to him and forced a smile. "My maid is here to look for me. Let's say goodbye now. I'll take my leave now."

"Boss, let's settle the bill," Luo Shuiyao waved to the boss.

After saying that, he placed the copper coins on the edge of the bowl and turned to walk towards where Dujuan was.

"Miss, where have you been? I couldn't find you just now and was almost scared to death."

Du Juan ran back to put down her things and ran back, but she couldn't find her young lady. She was so anxious that she was sweating. When she finally saw her young lady, she couldn't help but mutter to her.

Luo Shuiyao looked at the thin layer of sweat on Dujuan's face and couldn't help but feel a little sorry. She had promised Dujuan to wait there, but she had run away without a trace, causing the little girl to worry for no reason.

She held Du Juan's hand and said, "It's my fault. It's getting late. Let's go back."

Du Juan wiped away her tears and nodded, "Okay, Miss."

Ye Yunzhou looked at the master and servant walking away in silence.

Ye Yi, who had grown up with him, was well aware of his mood swings. He noticed his master's obvious displeasure and muttered to himself, "Could it be that the prince is so overbearing that he even gets jealous of women?"

Just as he was lost in thought, he suddenly felt a cold gaze falling on him. He turned around and found Ye Yunzhou staring at him expressionlessly, as if he knew his inner thoughts.

"You have nothing to do?" he asked coldly.

"Of course there is something. Manager Zhang came to you to report something," Ye Yi said with a wry smile.

Ye Yunzhou stared at him for a few seconds with an inexplicable look on his face. "Then hurry up and leave."

"Let's go, hehe, let's go," Ye Yi laughed and followed Ye Yunzhou.

Looking at the back of his master, Ye Yi secretly cried out in his heart: "Alas! Your son almost touched the tiger's butt today."

Zuixian Restaurant

Ye Yunzhou stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the bustling street outside.

"This old servant went to find the caravan early this morning, and will return to Kyoto with them. Miss Luo is still a lady of the boudoir, and it would be inappropriate for her to stay with us rough guys for ten days or half a month. It would damage Miss Luo's reputation."

"Well! You've thought it through."

A cold voice sounded. Ye Yunzhou turned to look at him, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes as he recalled the arrogant words he heard that day.

Steward Zhang keenly sensed the displeasure etched in Ye Yunzhou's words. He lowered his head slightly and remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking, "When I left the capital, the Marquis solemnly instructed me to treat Miss Luo as his own daughter and not to neglect her in the slightest. I have always remembered the Marquis's instructions and dare not neglect them in the slightest."

Ye Yunzhou snorted lightly, his eyes swept coldly towards Manager Zhang, and he said with a hint of sarcasm, "Then you can arrange it. You don't need to tell me again in the future."

Manager Zhang has been a manager for many years, and observing people's expressions is his job. So when he saw the undisguised disgust on the prince's face, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He secretly pondered in his heart that this Miss Luo and the Prince didn't seem to have any connection at all! Moreover, he felt that Miss Luo was a gentle, polite, and measured person. Although she didn't come from a prominent family, she was a beautiful girl from a small family, with a unique charm that made people love her.

How could such a woman be hated by the prince so much?

However, these questions only flashed through his mind. After all, he was just an insignificant servant, so how could he have the right to question the prince about why he treated Miss Luo in this way?

Thinking of this, Manager Zhang nodded quickly and replied, "Yes."

Afterwards, he looked at the prince cautiously, and seeing that he had no other instructions, he quickly took his leave.
