A cold ink shadow suddenly appeared beside Ye Jinxiao, and the whole body was filled with fierceness, like the wind blowing in winter, even though there was a charcoal fire burning in the hall, the temperature suddenly dropped.
Freezing air.
"Yu...see His Royal Highness King Yu!"
Everyone was shocked and hurriedly knelt down to salute.
Yun Weiwei also leaned forward.
From the corner of his eye, he looked at the man's noble clothes. Even the fingers holding the teacup were strong, perfect and slender. He couldn't imagine how elegant the prince in the East Palace would be?
This year, she finally got haircut. If she can be favored by the prince at the end of the year palace banquet...
Ye Jinxiao tilted his head and said in a cold tone: "What are you doing here?"
Chu Yuci's eyes were dim. She didn't care about the couple's face when she went out, and she wanted to distance herself from him in every word.
"I...have nothing to do, just take a walk."
Just walk casually and come to Taifu's Mansion?
"Everyone is free of charge."
"Thank you, His Highness King Yu."
The old lady sat back.
Everyone in the imperial capital knew that King Yu did not favor Concubine Yu. Although it was not known why King Yu abandoned Concubine Liu, looking at the way the two got along, Ye Jinxiao was still not favored.
What kind of airs can a disgraced Princess Yu put on?
"Come here, serve tea to His Highness Prince Yu."
The servants served him with great respect.
Chu Yuci sat next to Ye Jinxiao, "I will sit here casually and leave later. You don't have to be formal."
"yes."
Just sit around and come to Taifu's Mansion?
What does His Highness King Yu mean?
Everyone couldn't tell what King Yu was thinking, but just because Ye Jinxiao was not favored, the old lady quickly put on her airs again and assumed the majesty of an old matron of the family:
"Xiao'er, it's rare for you to come home. Your aunt and brothers and I miss you very much."
There was a kind smile on her face, as if she was not the one who smashed the tea cup just now.
"How have you been living in Prince Yu's Mansion recently? If you need anything, just ask your grandmother. The Tutor's Mansion is your natal family and your backing, and will never let you suffer injustice outside."
Ye Jinxiao raised the corners of his eyes and glanced at her sideways: "If you have anything to say, just say it. I have other things to do. I will leave in a quarter of an hour at most."
The old lady almost lost her temper: "You!"
How can anyone talk to elders like this?
Aunt Liang was immediately angry: "Fourth Miss, the old lady is talking to you, how can you not respect her!"
"Master, speak, concubine, please don't interrupt."
"Ye Jinxiao! You..."
Snapped!
Just as Aunt Liang was about to get angry, there was a loud sound of a tea cup being dropped on the table. Everyone's hearts tightened and they subconsciously looked at the noble dark figure.
King Yu put down the teacup with his usual expression: "My hand slipped."
"..."
With such an obvious hint, how could Aunt Liang dare to speak again?
The old lady was angry.
What is King Yu here for?
He doesn't dote on Ye Jinxiao, but he sits here like a god of plague, and he can't let go of Ye Jinxiao because of his face.
It’s really frustrating.
"Xiao'er, grandma knows that you are used to being straightforward, but now that you are Princess Yu, you must pay attention to your status in your words and deeds. When you go out, be careful with your mouth and don't embarrass Prince Yu's palace."
She smiled and returned Ye Jinxiao's words intact.
Ye Jinxiao sneered.
Have a verbal argument with her?
"What the old lady taught me is that fortunately, Mrs. Ye had help from noble people. One person became enlightened and the whole family ascended to heaven. Otherwise, when I passed by the market and saw the egg seller shouting at the old lady, I wouldn't even look at him twice, let alone Listen to what nonsense she says.”
The old lady slammed the table angrily.
This is clearly an insinuation and insult to her!
"Ye Jinxiao, I am your grandmother! You are disrespectful and I am qualified to teach you a lesson!"
"Did I mention you by name?"
Ye Jinxiao looked innocent: "I didn't say anything about you. If you insist on taking your seat, there's nothing I can do about it."
"you you!"
"Teacher Ye entered the official position halfway, but you put on airs and pretended to be an official. As the saying goes, a fallen leaf returns to its roots, but one must not forget where he came from."
Straightforward words, without any cover-up.
Be as direct as you want.
The fights between the women in the house are nothing more than slander, frame-up, misfortune, and moral kidnapping. It’s very tiring to play it out over and over again.
She has to go to Shuntian Mansion to pick up Chunjing later, so she doesn't have time to waste time here.
Besides, she doesn't have much affection for the Ye family.
The old lady almost fainted with anger.
"Old Madam!" Yun Weiwei rushed forward anxiously, holding the old lady's arm, her eyes red with fear.
"Cousin, how can you talk to the old lady like this? The old lady cares about you for your own good. How can you talk back to your elders?"
A pair of tearful eyes looked at King Yu pitifully, biting his lower lip:
"His Royal Highness, King Yu, please give me a fair word."
A childish face is undoubtedly the best weapon to seduce men. Her weak and bully look is ten times whiter than Liu Mingyue's.
Ye Jinxiao didn't say anything, but grabbed the teacup at hand and smashed it directly.
Snapped!
"ah!"
Yun Weiwei dodged in embarrassment and fell to the ground, almost getting hit.
"Cousin, what are you doing!"
"Am I not caring about you? The old lady cares about me. I care about you. What are you hiding from?"
"you!"
Yun Weiwei was so choked that she couldn't speak.
When Chu Yuci saw Ye Jinxiao's actions, a glimmer of hope overflowed from his eyes.
Yun Weiwei seduces him in public, Xiaoer can't stand it anymore?
Xiaoer still has him in her heart!
"Besides, if this young lady is talking, why would you, an outsider, get in the way?"
"I...I...I'm also worried about the old lady..."
Yun Wei's eyes turned red slightly, her childish little face looked extremely pitiful, "Cousin, Wei Wei knows that she is of low status and cannot compare to your rich body, but Wei Wei cares about her elders and respects her filial piety. What's wrong with that?"
That sensible look won the hearts of the old lady and Aunt Liang.
Look, look!
A cousin from Luo City is so well-educated and well-mannered.
Look at Ye Jinxiao again, as rude as a shrew!
How could Taifu Ye give birth to such a vulgar daughter!
How great would it be if Weiwei was the daughter of the Taifu Mansion?
Ye Jinxiao asked back: "Since you know that you are lowly, why are you still shamelessly staying in Taifu's house? You have been here for ten years."
Yun Weixiao's face suddenly turned red.
this!
She was just being polite and saying something self-deprecating, but who knew that Ye Jinxiao climbed up the pole without giving her any face.
How could she answer the call?
Extremely embarrassing!
A pair of watery eyes looking for help looked at King Yu with great pity: "Your Highness King Yu, I have no intention of being an enemy of my cousin. I just care about the old lady, but why is my cousin so aggressive and can't let me go?"
He knelt and crawled over, grabbed the man's noble clothes, and said aggrievedly:
"I would also like to ask His Highness King Yu to make the decision and clarify Weiwei's situation."
"Weiwei not only wants to make the old lady feel at ease, but also wants to make her cousin happy. Weiwei just wants them to get along well with each other. What's wrong?"
She choked and cried.
With such a sensible look, any man who sees her will think that the arrogant and magnanimous Ye Jinxiao bullied the simple and weak Yun Weiwei.
Chu Yuci lowered his eyes and looked at the person at his feet with extremely calm eyes:
"Since Miss Yun is kind-hearted, please don't interfere in the affairs of Taifu's Mansion. Just leave Taifu's Mansion and go home."
"..."
She even cried. Why is King Yu so cold?
impossible!
She was naturally childish. Even though she had hair extensions, she was still as young as eleven or twelve years old. Many men could not move their legs when they saw her such a delicate appearance.
When the son of the minister of the Ministry of Industry saw her, he was so fascinated by her that he had to be her.
How could King Yu not have any compassion?
She calmed down and took on an even more weeping look, like a delicate flower that was beaten by a storm, crumbling:
“Does His Highness Prince Yu also think it’s Wei Wei’s fault?”
"Yes, it's all Wei Wei's fault."
"Weiwei is just an outsider. He is soft-spoken. Even if he lives in the Taifu Mansion, he is still under someone else's roof. He must be careful. If my cousin must drive Weiwei away, just leave Weiwei..."
Chu Yuci's face was expressionless and his voice was impatient:
"Whether she can drive you away, I don't know, but if your hands grab my robe again and dirty my clothes, be careful with your claws."
