Chapter 771 Opportunity, Serving the Prince Loyally
Yun Mujiu was thinking about what Ye Xiaohan was thinking about her, while she looked up at Fusang who was looking down. Fusang was skilled in martial arts and had better hearing than Chunlan. It was estimated that Chunlan was with Fusang and heard her talking in her sleep.
Yun Mujiu forced a smile: "I was just too tired, that's why I said that nonsense, I don't usually say that kind of thing."
"Princess, we understand." Chunlan and Fusang smiled. The arc of their smiles was surprisingly the same, like the signature smiles of the waiters at Yueguilou and Baihuayuan.
Yun Mujiu glared at them angrily, "You've become bolder, huh? Now you always dare to tease me."
“Don’t dare, don’t dare!” Fusang and Chunlan pretended to be afraid and lowered their heads immediately.
"I have spoiled you girls and you are becoming more and more naughty. Tomorrow I will marry you all off and send you far away so that I won't see you often and won't be upset." Yun Mujiu said with a tense face, saying one thing and thinking another.
"No!" The two maids were terrified and begged, "We just want to stay by the princess' side forever."
Yun Mujiu raised her head proudly, "Then you have to listen to me."
Fusang and Chunlan nodded vigorously, and said to Yun Mujiu, "Understood!"
The three of them chuckled, leaving Yingliu in the dark, touching his head and complaining in his heart: He really doesn't understand girls' minds. I thought the princess and the others were going to have a quarrel just now, why are they laughing so happily now?
...
"Dong, Dong, Dong..." The sound of gongs and drums came, followed by a shout: "Dinner is ready."
Several jailers carried buckets of food and held a pile of broken porcelain bowls and moldy wooden chopsticks.
The silent prison suddenly became noisy. The prisoners slowly stood up and waited for the jailer to give them food.
"Hiss..." Doctor Wu was awakened, and the pain from his old wounds made him utter a sound of pain.
He was stunned for a long time. Didn't he have unbearable abdominal pain last night? He couldn't remember what happened last night.
Looking at the jailer distributing food not far away, I was puzzled.
A fat jailer walked up to him and asked, "What are you staring at? Don't you want to eat lunch today?"
A hint of murderous intent flashed across Doctor Wu's eyes, and he nodded, pretending to be afraid.
He asked what happened last night. It was obvious that he asked the jailer for help because he was not feeling well, but why did he have no memory of what happened afterwards?
The fat jailer snorted coldly with a look of impatience on his face.
"Prisoners do not have the right to see a doctor. We came here last night not to help you, but to warn you to be quiet and not make any noise."
He glared at Doctor Wu and said, "What do you think this place is? You still want us to serve you? You fainted last night. What can a fainted person know?"
Doctor Wu didn't dare to say more, and lowered his head to show his humility. He thought to himself: So he fainted from the pain.
Then he looked at the food bucket in the jailer's hand with a hint of disgust. He must have felt sick because of the food in the prison. Fortunately, nothing serious happened to him in the end.
As Yun Mujiu expected, Doctor Wu remembered nothing after waking up.
Ye Shi also looked indignant when she saw the jailers moving around. Why did she send someone to pass the message to Yun Mujiu, but there was no reply yet! Yun Mujiu was just as hateful as Meng Shi!
Ye called the fat jailer to ask about the reply from the Night Palace, but was met with a cold face from the jailer. She remembered that the fat man was beside Master Zong when she asked him for help last time. She didn't expect that the fat man didn't report the follow-up situation to her in time.
"Who are you? Do you really think that we adults have to run errands for you just because you say something casually?" the fat jailer scolded.
The fat jailer only scolded Ye and refused to mention whether Zong Quan had conveyed Ye's message, which made Ye unsure whether Yun Mujiu had learned about Ye's plea. Furthermore, Ye could not guess what Yun Mujiu was thinking.
Ye was so frightened by the scolding that she didn't think of asking further questions.
Is she really trapped in the prison? The emperor ordered her to stay in prison, and the specific trial of her has not yet begun. According to the crime that Yun Mujiu charged her with, if the term of her imprisonment is up and the people in the government office start to sentence her, then she will really have no way to protect her safety!
Ye's eyes widened, and he fell into panic and despair...
"Master Zong, I have done everything you asked me to do."
"Okay." Zong Quan nodded with satisfaction and waved to the fat jailer in front of him.
The fat jailer nodded to Zong Quan, then nodded to a man next to Zong Quan, and then left.
"General Wei, if there is any new news, I will inform you in time." Zong Quan said calmly.
"Thank you." Wei Song clasped his fists towards Zong Quan and smiled slightly.
"General Wei, you are too polite. We are all the prince's men, so we are all loyal to him and his wife."
Wei Song nodded calmly. Yes, Lord Zong was right. They should do their job as subordinates. And he would not be lenient to the father and daughter this time. He would just follow the instructions of the prince and princess.
Wei Song returned to Prince Ye's Mansion and told Ye Xiaohan all the news he had obtained.
"I understand." Ye Xiaohan put down the teacup in his hand and reminded: "In addition to the situation in the prison and the Princess's residence, we also need to keep an eye on Beihan and Dudigu."
In a few days, the master and elders of Duti Valley, as well as a group of people from Beihan, will arrive in the capital.
"Yes, I understand." Wei Song responded seriously.
"If you don't want to deal with those things, I can let Wei Bo and Du Ziheng do your work."
"Your Highness?" Wei Song understood that those things were about Doctor Wu and his daughter. His face was tense and he said firmly, "Your Highness, I can do it well. Please give me a chance."
"Okay." Ye Xiaohan retracted his gaze from Wei Song. Since Wei Song didn't need the escape route he offered, he would just let Wei Song keep doing it. Wei Song was already sober, so he just needed to deal with the affairs of the Ye Palace seriously.
At this time, Du Ziheng and Wei Bai came to the study. They heard that the prince had something to discuss, so they came early.
However, it was not the time to discuss the matter formally yet, because there was still some news about the Night King that had not yet reached the capital. So everyone was waiting in advance again to get the latest news in time.
Today, not only is there news coming back from the Northern Territory, but there is also news coming back from the Eastern Empire...
