Chapter 111 Missing
"Go back."
"Yes......"
Lingxiang didn't dare to be stubborn anymore.
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Yinhe's eyes: You don't know the importance of things.
That's good. With Lingxiang as a supporting role, it would save me some trouble.
Madam Qi was extremely efficient, or rather, Mrs. Fu was eager for Yinhe and Lingxiang to settle down early so as to give Lin Yulan a break. Not only did she promptly find a nice courtyard for them, but she also made all the arrangements extremely quickly.
When Shao Xun came back, everything here had been settled.
Shao Xun was furious, "They are just bored, I will chase them away right now!"
Shao Xun thought it was ridiculous. Crown Princess? Was the Crown Princess bored? Would she do such a thing?
And he simply didn't believe that the prince didn't know about this.
Regardless of whether the prince knew about it but pretended not to know, or whether it was the prince's hint, Shao Xun felt that this man had such a narrow mind that it was ridiculous.
The imperial examination is about to begin, and the Crown Prince is in charge of this important mission, but he actually has the leisure to meddle in his own backyard. He is totally out of his mind!
Shao Xun even thought to himself with some sarcasm, maybe... there is some providence in this, could it be that the prince has some foresight in his subconscious? He knew that he was going to make trouble in the imperial examination, so he made trouble for himself in advance?
That's good, since there is give and take, it's only natural for him to retaliate.
The nails that were buried before have finally come to be used.
Lin Yulan felt much more relieved after hearing what Shao Xun said. She no longer felt as aggrieved and depressed as when she first brought the two back. She smiled and said, "My Lord, since they are here, let them stay. After all, they are a reward from the Crown Princess."
Shao Xun was extremely sarcastic: "So what? Anyone can pretend to be deaf and dumb unless they have experienced the bright road."
Lin Yulan smiled: "But even if they leave, the old lady will not let them go."
She would still send people over, endlessly.
Since it is an ineffective resistance, it is better to save your energy.
At least, this person is not theirs, but the Crown Princess's. They may not be without fear.
Shao Xun's mind, which was overwhelmed by anger, gradually calmed down a bit, and he looked at Lin Yulan guiltily.
He was thinking too simply. He was a married man now, and things were different. He couldn't be so careless and impulsive.
He was not restricted to the inner courtyard, but his wife was not. She lived and worked in this mansion every day. Even though he did not have any strict restrictions on her, as the wife of a marquis, she could not possibly wander around outside as freely as he did.
"I took it for granted," Shao Xun looked at Lin Yulan and said seriously, "Don't worry, Madam. Let alone the so-called reward given by the Crown Princess, even if it was given by the Emperor or the Empress, I don't like it. Those things are clearly ill-intentioned and come with bad intentions. I won't even look at them."
"If they are sensible and know what's good for them, Madam will just ignore them. They are just two idle people kept in the mansion. If they dare to have evil intentions and do something else, Madam, don't be polite to them. Punish them severely and make an example of them. I will take care of everything."
"Master, Master - in short, I will take care of everything. The only person I trust is Madam! Madam, do you understand?"
Lin Yulan smiled and said, "My Lord, I feel relieved when you say that! But what if one of them accidentally kills them?"
Lin Yulan didn't really want to kill anyone, but she had seen too much of the cruelty of the secret struggles in the backyard in her previous life, and it was hard to say when someone might die if she wasn't careful. She said this to prevent trouble before it happened, and it could barely be considered a half-joking, half-serious test.
Shao Xun: "What are they? They are just playthings. In my eyes, life or death makes no difference."
Lin Yulan didn't know what to say for a moment and stood there in a daze.
Shao Xun was also stunned for a moment, and then he realized that what he said seemed a bit too cruel and ruthless, and he couldn't help feeling annoyed!
Would it scare her? Would it make her think that I was a cold-blooded, heartless bastard who didn't care about human life?
Shao Xun hurriedly said softly, "Madam, please don't misunderstand. Those people have ulterior motives. I will naturally not forgive them. Madam, the wet nurse, and the cousins of the An family, etc., we are all family members, and we are naturally different from them. I will not allow anyone to hurt you."
Lin Yulan smiled and said, "I understand. With your words, I know what's going on."
Shao Xun smiled and was about to speak when Xiao Qu came in to report: "My Lord, Madam, Aunt Yinhe and Aunt Lingxiang are here."
Xiaoqu curled her lips and glanced at Shao Xun with a little resentment. The little girl felt somewhat angry and resentful in her heart.
These two concubines were given by the old lady. They look like fairies and they don't dress properly like those from good families. It's obvious that they have bad intentions.
I don’t know how the Marquis will react when he sees them.
Shao Xun sneered, "No, let them go."
Xiao Qu suddenly became happy and answered loudly: "Yes, Lord!"
Lin Yulan also disliked those two people and did not speak up for them. If the Marquis did not want to see them, then he could just not see them.
Yinhe and Lingxiang couldn't believe it.
Lingxiang couldn't help but said, "We haven't met the Marquis yet, so we should pay our respects to him in accordance with etiquette. Please pass on the message, young lady."
Xiao Qu said bluntly: "In Chunhui Garden, the Marquis' words are the rules. When is it Lingxiang Auntie's turn to set the rules? The Marquis said he doesn't want to see her, so Lingxiang Auntie, please leave quickly. Don't disturb the Marquis and his wife from having dinner. Dinner will be served soon!"
Lingxiang glanced at Xiaoqu hatefully and had to give up.
Yinhe didn't say anything, she just lowered her eyes slightly with a faint expression.
For three or four days in a row, Shao Xun did not enter the backyard, so Yinhe and Lingxiang stared at the direction of the second gate, trying to have an easy "encounter" with the Marquis but to no avail.
Fu also kept staring at Lin Yulan and Chunhui Garden, waiting to watch the fun with a gloating look on her face.
Helplessly, Shao Xun refused to enter the backyard, so he had to give up for the time being.
When she met Lin Yulan during the greetings, she couldn't help but say a few sarcastic words, but Lin Yulan didn't bother to pay attention to her. Shao Xun told her that he had some things to do in the next few days, so she didn't need to worry.
The two newly appointed concubines wanted to come over to pay their respects and keep her company, but Lin Yulan refused to see them. She was fair to everyone and kept her distance from them all.
It was as if they were some kind of terrible beast and they had to avoid them as much as possible.
As a result, even Yinhe, who had appeared quite calm at first, began to feel a little uneasy.
