Chapter 8 The Eldest Lady (Event Must See)
That waste wood of the Chu family, Chu Liuyue, is crazy!
Almost overnight, the entire imperial capital was discussing this matter.
"My cousin's third uncle was on an errand at the Chu family, and I saw with my own eyes that on that day, the people of the Treasure Pavilion respectfully sent half a cart of medicinal materials! Moreover, it was clearly said that it was sent to Chu Liuyue!
"Wouldn't it? Who doesn't know that Chu Liuyue was born with waste wood, and she can have something to do with the Treasure Pavilion? Half a cart of medicinal materials from the Treasure Pavilion... That's a lot of money, right? Can she afford it?"
"That's why she's crazy! Treasure Pavilion has never made a loss-making deal. You say, where the hell did she get the money? The prince gave it to you?"
"Ha! The prince has never mentioned Chu Liuyue for so many years, how could he do such a thing? Could it be that she still thinks that with those medicinal herbs, she can turn herself from a waste wood into a genius?"
"Hahahaha!"
The people in the entire imperial capital were full of ridicule, waiting to see Chu Liuyue's jokes.
...
Prince's Mansion.
In the study, a man in a purple brocade robe was looking at the folds on the table.
He looked about his early twenties, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, very handsome, and with a noble aura unique to the superiors.
This person is not an outsider, it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is now respected in Yaochen Kingdom - Rong Jin!
"Your Highness, there seems to be something going on over there of the Chu family..."
The prince's personal bodyguard, Song Yuan, opened his mouth carefully.
Rong Jin raised his eyes:
"What can happen to the Chu family? Could it be Minmin-"
Seeing that Song Yuan's expression was not quite right, Rong Jin realized something and squinted his eyes.
"Say, what the hell is going on?"
Song Yuan hurriedly explained the matter of Chu Liuyue and the Treasure Pavilion in the past two days.
โ... This... I don't know where Miss Chu got the silver, but she can afford to buy so many medicinal materials in the Treasure Pavilion..."
Those medicinal materials were all sent in jade boxes, and it was impossible for others to know what was inside.
But even so, just thinking about it, you know so many things, it must add up to a lot of value!
Rong Jin frowned, his tone a little impatient.
"What the hell is she doing?"
If it weren't for that marriage contract, how could he possibly put the waste wood of the Chu family in his eyes?
Over the years, Chu Liuyue has not only been a shame for the Chu family, but also a stain that is difficult for him to get rid of!
Song Yuan said with some uncertainty:
"Your Highness, in fact, although Chu Ning has been a lot of downfall over the years, after all, he has been in the limelight back then, and it is not impossible to have some savings in his hands... The point is, what are they going to do with so many medicinal herbs? maybe..."
"Hmph, it's just that I still want to try to solve the problem of her natural waste firewood!"
There is still a month left before the engagement time of that marriage contract, is she still delusional to try to turn the tide?!
"Ridiculous!"
The original vein is broken, and no one in the entire Yaochen Kingdom can solve it, if they really have a way, they will not fall to such a state for so many years!
"She's not worth mentioning, it's just a joke. Sooner or later, Hongu will break off her engagement with her. Right now, the more important thing is... Rong Xiu is coming back?"
At the mention of Rong Xiu, Song Yuan's expression was full, and he said in a low voice:
"Yes. They will arrive in the imperial capital today. According to his subordinates, this time the Seventh Prince only brought two entourages and returned in simple clothes. โ
Rong Jin sneered.
"Count him as acquaintances. โ
Unlike other princes, Rong Xiu was born weak, so when he was a child, he was taken to the Bright Moon Tianshan thousands of miles away to recuperate, and he only came back twice for so many years.
The last time I came back, it was three years ago.
Most people may not have taken this Seventh Prince to heart, and some people even don't remember his existence at all, but Prince Rong Jin doesn't think so.
Rong Xiu returned this time, he was very vigilant, and even sent someone to secretly track and trace him early.
"Keep the people down there watching. If there is anything abnormal, report it immediately!"
"Yes!"
Although Song Yuan didn't know why the crown prince attached so much importance to the weak and unbackgrounded seventh prince, he immediately responded.
"By the way, Your Highness, there has been another five-grade demonic beast in the hunting ground recently, when do you want to take a look?"
Rong Jin pondered for a moment, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.
"In a while, it will be the birthday of this palace. This year's birthday banquet will be held in the hunting ground!"
"Yes!"
...
Chu family.
Half a cart of precious medicinal materials was swaggered to the courtyard of Chu Liuyue's father and daughter.
Before Chu Ning came back from going out, Chu Liuyue was alone, moving those medicinal materials into the house little by little.
Soon, she found that outside the originally remote and quiet courtyard, there were many more pairs of peeping eyes.
Chu Liuyue was very calm, as if she didn't notice it, and even occasionally opened the jade box to check the color of the medicinal materials.
The Treasure Pavilion is indeed very attentive to her, and the things sent are in good condition.
It's also very helpful for her to restore her original veins.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, and a man was shouting.
"Go, arrest Chu Liuyue for me!"
Chu Liuyue sneered in her heart - sure enough, she still came!
Looking up, a group of people had already kicked open the gate of the courtyard and rushed in!
The man at the head had a fierce and vicious face, and there were more than a dozen strong men behind him, and he was looking for trouble.
Chu Liuyue narrowed her eyes and finally recognized this man.
Chu Liansheng.
This person is Chu Xianmin's henchman, and he is also one of the accomplices who helped the original body to death before!
What a coincidence, she was looking for him, and she took the initiative to send it to the door!
While speaking, there were already two men rushing towards Chu Liuyue!
Chu Liuyue's eyes were like knives, and he said sharply:
"Presumptuous! Who gave you the guts to dare to trespass into here without permission!"
Her questioning was loud, which immediately made everyone present stunned and subconsciously stopped.
Chu Liansheng was also taken aback, but then reacted and said mockingly:
"Heh, Chu Liuyue, why are we here, don't you know? What is the price of the medicinal materials in the Treasure Pavilion, and you can afford it? Your money must come from the wrong way! I advise you to be honest, obediently hand over these things, and come with us. Otherwise, don't blame us for being polite!"
When Chu Liuyue heard this, she looked around and put down the things in her hand.
"Oh, what if I don't?"
Chu Liansheng was stunned for a moment, and then sneered:
"What qualifications do you have to say no?"
He looked Chu Liuyue up and down, his eyes full of contempt.
"A waste of firewood, eating and drinking for nothing in the Chu family for many years, is already extremely humiliating! Now, I don't know what shady means I used to get the money to buy these things! Chu Liuyue, you are shameless, our Chu family still needs it!"
Chu Liuyue looked at him fixedly, and then walked forward.
It seems that he is planning to be caught.
Chu Liansheng became more and more proud, and glanced at the people next to him.
"Why don't you put all that stuff away! these are crucial pieces of evidence, not at allโ"
Syllable!
A loud slap sounded!
Inside and outside the courtyard, there was a dead silence in an instant!
Just now... Chu Liuyue actually beat Chu Liansheng!?
Who doesn't know that he is the confidant of the third lady Chu Xianmin, who is very face-saving when he sees him on weekdays, Chu Liuyue is crazy and even dares to fight him?
"You!How dare you hit me!?"
Chu Liansheng was directly blinded, and the hot pain on his face instantly ignited his anger!
"You're tiredโ"
As he spoke, he subconsciously raised his hand and hit Chu Liuyue!
However, his hand didn't fall for a long time, but was choked by Chu Liuyue's wrist, and then gave a second slap with his backhand!
Syllable!
This time, Chu Liansheng, who hit him directly, was full of blood!
