Chapter 322 I don’t believe that the emperor would ignore the life and death of that woman for these
Cheng Yuheng pushed open the study door impatiently. After entering the study, he walked to the desk.
His eyes fell on a neatly folded light pink paper on the desk.
He picked up the neatly folded small rectangular piece of letter paper and wanted to open it. He turned it left and right in his hand, not knowing where to open it. He tried to pull the small triangles on the four sides with his hands and found that one place was loose, so he unfolded it little by little along the crease.
Cheng Yuheng looked at the beautiful and neat handwriting and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
This kind of paper; such fine strokes; such small handwriting, can only be written with Yun Duo's hard-tipped pen.
When he saw the arrival time displayed above, an irrepressible joy suddenly surged in his heart, as if a burning flame had ignited in his heart. His daughter is here! This news made his heart beat faster and he was ecstatic.
Before, in Yanqi City, he rushed out without hesitation based on a little intuition and guesswork.
However, looking back now, he felt extremely regretful and blamed himself deeply for being so impulsive at the time.
If he had been able to think calmly at that time, if he could let Duo'er's drone approach slowly, perhaps Duo'er would have been able to spot him in the lobby of the government office through the screen.
It took him nearly two hours to get back to Yanqi Pass on his horse at full speed. If he had not returned to Yanqi Pass but had gone out of the city to meet Duo'er, wouldn't he have been able to meet the little girl he had been thinking about day and night?
It's a pity that things backfired.
His mood seemed to have fallen from the clouds to the bottom of the valley. A sense of loss surged into his heart like a tide, and the smile on his lips was replaced by indifference like a withered petal.
Qiushou and Dongzang, who were unaware of the situation, stood behind Cheng Yuheng like confused monks, at a loss as to what to do. They didn't know why their master was like this, laughing one moment and acting so cold the next.
Qiu Shou asked tremblingly: "Master, what's wrong? What happened?"
Cheng Yuheng regained his thoughts as if waking from a dream: "Your mistress is here and will arrive in Yanqi City this evening."
"Could it be that what the master discovered was the mistress's drone?" Dong Zang asked with sudden realization.
"Oh! Master, if you take your subordinates and rush back to Yanqi Pass, wouldn't you be further away from my mistress?" Qiushou also felt sorry for not being able to see my mistress earlier.
"Let's go pick up your mistress." Cheng Yuheng walked out of the study at full speed.
"Master, wait a minute, listen to me first."
Qiu Shou really couldn't understand why his master, who was always calm and wise, would become so impulsive and lose his mind when encountering matters concerning his mistress.
"Master, don't worry. Let me use a drone to send a letter to the mistress, telling her that we are waiting for her at the Jinkelai in Yanqi City. That way, when we return to Yanqi City, the mistress and the others should have arrived. This way, we can avoid missing each other again."
"Qiu Shou, you stay here and deliver a letter to your mistress. Dong Zang, we'll leave."
After saying that, he took Dong Zang on his horse and rode away.
During the autumn harvest, he had no choice but to accept his fate and stay to deliver a letter to Yun Duo, and stay at Yanqi Pass to prevent Cheng Yuheng from missing Yun Duo again.
Yunhai, who had been sent back to the Cheng Mansion, did not expect that his granddaughter would be able to meet Cheng Yuheng so soon and so smoothly.
At this moment, in Changchun Palace, Yu Pingting, dressed in gorgeous clothes, was staring angrily at the small statue that her subordinates had just presented to her on the table.
He also dropped things at hand from time to time.
"For the sake of his son's wild woman, is he so sure that I won't kill those bugs in my hands? He actually helped his son protect this country doctor and the mud-legged peasant in the village for a village girl."
The palace servants knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.
Even the usually most popular Aunt Qiangwei and Aunt Guixu knelt obediently on the ground, no longer showing their usual arrogance in front of the little palace maid.
The person kneeling on the ground stared at the ground motionlessly, extremely frightened but not daring to make a sound.
The methods of their master are not something that ordinary people can withstand.
Yu Pingting suppressed her anger, and after calming down, she said in a deep voice: "Is this news true? The woman in the photo is only about fourteen or fifteen years old, and she is not stunningly beautiful. Can she really make the prince fall in love with her to this extent?"
A eunuch kneeling below replied tremblingly: "My queen, this is the news sent by the marquis. The messenger said that the news came from a couple named Zhang Ergui in Kaoshan Village. The Zhang family used to be Yunhai's relatives, so the news should be true. They also said that the Yun family married the prince and became rich, so they no longer recognize their poor relatives."
Yu Pingting laughed sinisterly: "I thought it was a great family. It turns out they are just a bunch of greedy villains. Is that the prince's vision?"
Thanks to the discussion among several village chiefs, they warned the villagers to speak with one voice, to say what they should say and not to say what they shouldn't say if they don't want to die.
Zhang Ergui described the Yun family as the kind of snobs who would forget their principles at the sight of profit, otherwise their lives and their ability to leave those villages would be implicated.
"I don't believe that the emperor would disregard the life and death of that woman for these peasants. I want to ask the emperor in person, is he really going to go against me for a group of peasants? Does he not care about the queen anymore?"
The eunuch hurriedly tried to stop her: "Your Majesty, please calm down. The Marquis asked me to tell you that everything is ready and he is just waiting for the Second Prince to return to the capital. Please don't ruin the big plan for some small minions."
Aunt Xu stood up and helped Yu Pingting sit back on the chaise longue: "My dear madam, please listen to my advice. They are just a bunch of peasants who are not presentable. Please be patient and let them jump around for a while. When things are done in the future, they will listen to your orders, right?"
"Then I will keep them for a few days."
Nanny Xu gave Qiangwei a wink, and Qiangwei stood up and ordered the maids to clean up as soon as possible.
The maids cleaned up very carefully and did not dare to make any noise, for fear of accidentally angering the imperial concubine and being punished.
At the same time, Jun Jingli was listening to Long Ying reporting the news to him.
"Your Majesty, I have already had someone deal with the Zhang family who leaked the news about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Yun.
The people sent to delay the second prince's entry into the capital have been arranged.
People were also sent to monitor Yu Desheng's movements at all times.
The person sent by the emperor to monitor Yu Desheng discovered something at Yu's house.
This matter is of great importance, please let the emperor make the decision."
"What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, according to the report from the people stationed in the Yu family, there is a secret room in the Yu family, and a man lives in it. There are poisonous insects, snakes and ants all around the secret room, and there are often screams of women coming from inside. I suspect that place is where the poisonous insects are made."
"Continue to monitor, and don't act rashly. Wait until the Queen's poison is removed before dealing with it. Send more people to protect Cheng Mansion and Xiangyun Village. If there's nothing else, go and make the arrangements!"
"Yes, I'll take my leave." Long Ying withdrew and hid in the darkness.
