Accidentally dressed as an empress

After this incident, Yunxiu and Zhongyi no longer had the heart to go shopping.

Yun Xiu instructed Zhong Qi, "The more people who know about Zhong Yuan's beating, the better."

Zhong Qi nodded and said, "The whole way to the clinic was filled with onlookers, and the girl from the Xu family also had her leg broken."

The system was eating melons, [Host, the Xu family members are already crying in front of the Neishi Mansion.]

Yunxiu said, "I will make Third Sister give an explanation to the Zhong family."

Zhong Qi's eyes were filled with tears and he looked grateful. Zhong Yi patted Zhong Qi on the shoulder and said, "Let's go back to the Zhong family first. For such a big matter, we need to let the elders in the family come forward."

Zhong Qi nodded and said goodbye to the two of them.

If this matter wasn't settled privately, the public opinion would ferment and Yun Ji would suffer enough. Was she too arrogant, or too foolish? She was giving him a handle.

After saying goodbye to Zhong Qi, Yunxiu took a carriage back home. When passing through the East Market, she found that Ren Li had also closed his stall.

As soon as she returned to the mansion, Yunxiu asked the housekeeper Li to call Ren Li to the study.

Yunxiu picked up the green jade cup with freshly brewed tea in it and took a sip.

Seeing Ren Li walk in dejectedly, Yun Xiu found it amusing and said, "You have quite a few novel ideas. How much did you earn today?"

Ren Li drooped his brows and said, "Mr. Zhong won the jackpot, but today it's still a loss."

Yunxiu put down the jade teacup, tapped the table with her fingers, and said with an unfathomable look, "What you gave me was a fifty-liang voucher for Lirenfang. Ren Li, you really know how to have fun."

Ren Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Highness, I can make amends."

Ren Li fumbled around in her bosom with trembling hands. Before she could even warm up her small change, the fifty taels she had earned from the Beauty Shop in exchange for information were gone.

Yun Xiu changed the subject and said, "But you made Mrs. Zhong laugh, and I am very happy."

Yunxiu took out five silver ingots from his pocket, stuffed them into Ren Li's pockets, and said, "Here are fifty taels, a reward for you."

Ren Li's gold farming system suddenly prompted, "Congratulations to the host for completing the task ahead of schedule..."

"Your Highness, please stop toying with me..." Ren Li wailed, "Your Highness, I know you also have a system, and it's of a very high level, a god-level existence. Could you please stop toying with us, the lowly shrimps, in such a bad way?"

"You just gave me fifty taels, and the system made me earn another five hundred!" Ren Li wanted to bang his head on the ground, "Oh my God, let me die..."

This woman, Ren Li, looks like a dignified and elegant lady when she is silent, but once she opens her mouth, all her elegance is ruined.

Zhong Yi stood at the study door, neither going in nor out, listening to the whole thing. What system? Master? What? What does it mean?

Zhong Yixiu's beautiful face was full of confusion, and she frowned as she turned and returned to Zhongxiuyuan.

Miyazato

Cui Ti, the Shaofu Ling, gathered her sleeves and waited outside the gate of Jingming Palace. After a while, she saw the third princess humming a little tune as she returned to Jingming Palace.

Cui Ti said, "Third Prince, the incident of you beating someone today has spread throughout the city. His Majesty has ordered that you, Third Prince, reflect on your mistakes in the quiet room starting tomorrow."

Yun Ji's expression froze, and he said, "I want to see His Majesty."

Cui Ti gathered her hands in her sleeves and said, "Your Majesty is very busy right now."

Yun Ji had no choice but to say, "Then I'll go and pay my respects later."

Cui Ti said gently, "I hope Your Highness will take care of yourself." Then she walked away.

Yun Ji lowered his head and said, "Farewell, Aunt Cui."

After Cui Ti left, Yun Ji snorted coldly, "He's just a lowly official, relying on the power of the tiger to bully you."

"Aji, please stop talking. You're always so blunt and outspoken, and it's easy to cause trouble."

"Ajue, why are you back?"

Yun Jue pulled Yun Ji's sleeve and said, "Aji, please restrain yourself. I heard that His Majesty is really thinking of asking you to leave the palace and build a mansion this time."

"If I leave the palace, won't that just satisfy your wish?" Yun Ji said with a cold face.

Yun Jue was about to cry.

She pushed the door open and said to Yun Jue, "Go away."

"Aji, don't you also miss the friendship we had growing up together?"

Yun Jue threw himself into her arms, but Yun Ji still pushed him away, "I let you go for your own good."

Yun Jue left sadly, and Yun Ji also stood there in a daze.

Yunji Palace Study

Xu Mi's mother, Xu Yan, pulled along Grand Minister of Agriculture Xu Ling, and together they knelt before His Majesty to complain: "Our daughter had just passed the martial arts test and was about to join the army. Now she's been brutally beaten, her legs broken, her eyes blinded, her future ruined. What can we do..."

Yu Yan was even more exaggerated. He directly carried General Zhong Xi's spirit tablet into the palace, knelt before the emperor and cried, "All the women of the Zhong family are guarding the border outside, leaving the family without a backbone. Now the Zhong family child has been beaten half to death and is unconscious. As a man, I am helpless. It's a pity that my wife sacrificed her life for the country. It's a pity that the Zhong family, with so many generals, couldn't even protect her family..."

His Majesty frowned and said, "Everyone, please stand up. These youngsters are fighting and have no regard for the severity of their actions. I will definitely punish the Third Prince and give everyone an explanation."

"Cui Ti, have Doctor Zhou go to the Zhong family to treat the girl, and Doctor Li, who is good at bone setting, go to the Xu family to treat the girl."

Yun Se paused and said, "After the Xu family's daughter recovers from her injuries, she will be appointed as the cavalry commander of the garrison. The third daughter of the Zhong family is also of age and will be appointed as the captain of the garrison."

Yun Se also asked Cui Ti to take some jewelry, gold and silver from the Shaofu to appease the Zhong and Xu families.

After sending the two families away, Yun Se pinched her brows. The Imperial Household Officer Cui Ti handed over the calming sachet prepared by the Imperial Physician and said, "Your Majesty's headache has come back again."

"How can my head not hurt?" Yun Se took the sachet and said in a low voice, "Oh, in Qingfeng Tower, fighting for a man."

Cui Ti said, "The First Prince even came forward to help the Third Prince resolve the matter, but was ridiculed by the Third Prince. Later, the Internal Affairs Office received a report from the Xu family, and the matter escalated."

Yun Se's brows furrowed even deeper when she heard this. Her eldest daughter, Yun Xiu, was no pushover either.

Well, she has many daughters, so she can take her time to choose one that suits her.

Yun Se pressed his temple and said, "Call over that useless Yun Ji."

A quarter of an hour later, Yun Ji walked into the study and bowed politely.

Queen Yunse sat on the throne, her expression cold: "Yun Ji, do you know your mistake?"

Yun Ji knelt down and said in a voice as loud as a bell, "I know I was wrong. I was impulsive and lost control of my strength, so I hurt someone."

Yun Se asked sternly, "Do you know who you are beating? One is from the Xu family, and the other is from the Zhong family. Civil officials and military generals, you've offended them all."

Yun Ji lowered his head.

"Since you've done something wrong, you must be punished." Yun Se paused, "Reflect on your mistakes in a quiet room for half a month. You don't need to go to the garrison for now."

Yun Ji gritted his teeth and said, "I obey your command."

"When you throw a punch, first make sure you know who can hit you and who can't." Yun Se said in a disappointed tone, "When will you be as steady as your elder sister?"

Yun Se waved his hand and said, "Forget it, leave now."
