"You------" Fu Yurou was about to curse, but when she saw Tang Yu's raised hand, she was instantly frightened.
The burning pain in her cheek was sharp. If she was slapped again and her face was disfigured, how could she fight for favor?
Qingshan was still there, so she didn't have to worry about running out of firewood. She would settle accounts with Ye Xingchen later.
"Sister, forgive me. It was my unbridled words that offended my sister. It was my ignorance. I will never dare to do it again." Fu Yurou immediately begged for mercy.
Ye Xingchen raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "You know what you mean, next time, it won't be a slap in the face, but I'm not a sister. I don't have a concubine sister. If you call me sister, I don't mind calling you sister." His tongue was cut."
Fu Yurou's face was extremely ugly, especially when she understood the words "sister who is a concubine", Ye Xingchen really spared no effort to humiliate himself.
However, she was even more afraid that she would actually cut her own tongue.
"Princess, forgive me, I will never make a mistake again. But Princess, you brought so many women back to your house, and they used all kinds of tricks to seduce the prince, which will only make the prince dislike you even more." Fu Yurou said softly, But he deliberately picked on Ye Xingchen's faults just to stimulate her.
"Oh, what do you think?" Ye Xingchen asked deliberately.
"Of course we have to drive them all out, leaving no one behind. Only after they are gone can the prince see the princess."
Ye Xingchen's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm: "If they all leave, the prince is not my princess's at all, but yours. How does it feel to have so many women suddenly come to compete with you for favor?"
Fu Yurou's face was black with anger, and her brows were knitted together. But when she saw Tang Yu in front of her, she immediately did not dare to make any mistakes: "Princess, why do you say that? The prince belongs to you and me. As long as you and I join hands, they will not be able to do anything." No splashes can be made from jumping around."
"Why should I join forces with you?" Ye Xingchen asked coldly.
"Because you like the prince. When you encountered robbers and almost had an accident, it was the prince who saved you. Have you forgotten?" Fu Yurou mentioned what happened that year.
Ye Xingchen's originally cold expression suddenly turned gloomy, and Fu Yurou reminded herself that it was King Mo who paid off the robbers and deliberately acted in front of the original owner.
"I have indeed not forgotten that the prince saved me in the first place, so I will give him a big gift. No matter how those women compete for favor, I am still your majesty's personal concubine Mo, but you are different, so you should take it out and see It's all about family, Tang Yu sees off guests!" Ye Xingchen was too lazy to talk nonsense to her.
When Fu Yurou saw that Ye Xingchen was not getting enough food and salt, she was furious and left in frustration.
"Princess, the concubine just now obviously wanted to use you as a spearman. I was afraid that you would agree. Fortunately, you didn't agree to her." Qingluo said worriedly.
"Silly girl, am I that stupid?" Ye Xingchen joked.
"The princess is the wisest."
In the blink of an eye, three days later, early in the morning, the Duke of Zhen and his wife came to the Regent's Palace together.
The menacing look frightened the boy guarding the door.
As soon as Fu Yurou heard that the Duke of Zhen and his family came to the door, she immediately took her maid to King Mo's study. Seeing Luo Bing helping King Mo grind, Fu Yurou put away the jealousy and hatred in her eyes and looked extremely anxious.
"The prince is not well. The Duke of Zhen and the Duke's wife came to visit him. It couldn't be that the princess and sister failed to save him a few days ago." Fu Yurou said.
Luo Bing, who was grinding, frowned slightly when she heard this, but she did not speak.
Mo Wang Cang Tingchen's face was furious: "This damn Ye Xingchen can only cause trouble. Now that the Duke of Zhen is here, I must divorce her today." After saying that, he followed Fu Yurou to the front hall.
When the Duke of Zhenguo saw King Mo coming, he immediately saluted: "Old minister, I have seen King Mo."
"I've met King Mo." Mrs. Zhenguo also said.
"Young Master and Madam, you don't have to be so polite. I wonder what you are here for?" Cang Tingchen asked.
"We are here to see the princess. I wonder if the princess is at the house?" Zheng Guogong said, his expression not very good.
After all, it was one hundred thousand taels. He and his wife borrowed several relatives and colleagues to get the amount together.
"Is it because my sister didn't save the adults a few days ago? If my sister did anything wrong or was negligent, Rou'er will apologize to the Duke and Madam for my sister's fault." Fu Yurou immediately said understandingly.
Mrs. Zhenguo's face turned dark immediately: "What the side concubine said is wrong. How can you, a concubine, represent the main concubine? What's more, who said that the princess did not save the adult? The princess saved my son. Today, my master and I are I came here especially to thank the princess.
I told her to go directly to the princess's courtyard, but my husband had to tell Princess Mo that he wanted to see King Mo first. This caused some people to misunderstand and almost put the shit basin on the princess. "
Fu Yurou's face was embarrassed and ugly, because of her words about concubine, and even more because she heard that Ye Xingchen actually saved someone.
"Okay, please stop saying a few words." Duke Zhen Guo glared at his wife.
"I'm not wrong. She came out and jumped around before she understood the matter. She looked everywhere. She was actually the prince's concubine. This old woman opened her eyes." Mrs. Zhen Guogong said in a smooth tone.
She had disliked Fu Yurou last time. If she had calmed down, how would she have had the chance to confront her.
"Your Majesty." Fu Yurou looked over aggrievedly.
Cang Tingchen couldn't care less about comforting her. He was still thinking about the words "saved my son" and immediately asked: "Mr. Zhen Guo, did Ye Xingchen really save people?"
"Back to your lord, Princess Mo did indeed save my son." Duke Zhenguo replied respectfully.
"How is this possible?" Cang Tingchen was shocked.
How could this happen? He had already prepared the divorce letter, but in the end he said that she had saved someone. This dramatic scene made Cang Tingchen unable to accept it.
"These are the thank-you gifts we gave to the princess. One hundred thousand taels, the master and I delivered them in full." Duke Zhenguo said.
The boys came in carrying more than a dozen boxes and opened the lids. Fu Yurou's eyes were blinded by the boxes of gold, silver, treasures, jades and antiques.
Cang Tingchen was even more shocked when he saw the gold and silver: "Ye Xingchen actually wants one hundred thousand taels from you?"
He didn't even dare to think about so much money.
"Yes, one hundred thousand taels will ensure my son's life is safe. I don't know where the princess is. I wanted to thank her back then." Mrs. Zhen Guogong asked.
Fu Yurou's eyes flickered: "Back to Madam, what a coincidence today, the princess is not in the palace. When she comes back, Rou'er will tell her your gratitude."
Cang Tingchen glanced at Fu Yurou with his cold eyes, but did not expose her: "It is rare for the Duke of Zhen and his wife to come to the palace, so why not go inside and have a cup of tea."
For the sake of Shi Wan Liang, Cang Tingchen's tone became much more polite.
"Since the princess is not in the house, my master and I will not disturb you." said the Duke of Zhenguo.
"I'm taking my leave." After the Duke of Zhen Guo finished speaking, he took his wife and left. However, the two of them had just walked a few steps when they saw a familiar figure.
"Princess, didn't you say that you are not at home?" Mrs. Zhenguo asked in surprise.
Ye Xingchen looked at Fu Yurou inside. She was avoiding her eyes and was extremely embarrassed. Cang Tingchen was also afraid to look at her. Ye Xingchen guessed that these two people wanted to monopolize the one hundred thousand taels.
"I have been at the house, but no one informed me. I heard from the maid in the yard that you are here, so I will rush over. Since the Duke's wife has sent one hundred thousand taels, someone will carry those boxes back to me The yard." Ye Xingchen snorted coldly.
"Yes." Tang Yu and others immediately walked over, carried the box and left.
Ye Xingchen's guardian made Fu Yurou feel ashamed. Seeing the boxes being carried away, Fu Yurou was extremely anxious. How the hell could Ye Xingchen get the news so quickly. That's one hundred thousand taels. I have never seen so much money in my life. It would be great if I could give that money to myself.
