Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 379
Chapter 379 Jing Yan Asked to Marry
Yun Clan’s Eldest Young Master, Yun Yang, got married. From the beginning until he married Lan Shuya, all of them were filled with joy in the capital. In addition, Yun Clan’s Eldest Young Master got married, but no one was there. The rumors of his sister’s death that night were like a gust of wind, sweeping across the capital. Even if someone wanted to suppress this matter, they couldn’t suppress it.
The Yun Clan’s main gate was closed, and the city was filled with wind and rain. Inside the gate, it was as quiet as dust.
In the past two days, the Yun Clan had blocked all the hidden tunnels under the mansion. However, there were still many that could not be found. Especially just now, someone came to report that they had discovered two more hidden tunnels when they were digging the soil in the pond. The tunnels were bright and dark, so it was very difficult for people to discover them. If it wasn’t for today’s earth-shaking, no one would know.
When they saw the secret path, everyone in the Yun Clan felt as if their hearts were covered in dust, and their faces were gloomy.
I didn’t expect that there would be so many hidden tunnels under this mansion. If someone wanted to use the hidden tunnels to harm the lives of the Yun Family, no one would be able to escape.
Last night was a good example. If it weren’t for this secret path, the Yun Clan wouldn’t have suffered such a calamity.
Yun Xiao listened to the maidservant’s report and waved her hand. Suddenly, she remembered something and asked Qing Mo, “How is the body of the Jin Emperor these two days? I heard that there is a miraculous doctor treating the Jin Emperor. Has he been cured?”
Yun Xiao had been thinking about the matter of the secret path for the past two days, but she had actually neglected this most important matter.
Qing Mo had been paying attention to these things. However, seeing that Yun Xiao’s health was not good, She did not tell Yun Xiao these things, Seeing Yun Xiao ask, he could only honestly say, “Yesterday, His Highness the Crown Prince brought a divine doctor into the palace to treat the Emperor. The divine doctor said that the Jin Emperor’s body could be cured. Last night, the divine doctor fed a medicine to the Jin Emperor. The Jin Emperor’s spirits have improved a lot. For this, the Jin Emperor rewarded the Crown Prince and the divine Doctor with a lot of gold, silver and jewelry.”
Yun Xiao nodded. In his previous life, the Jin Emperor had an accident in the capital because of His Highness the Seventh Prince’s horse. His Highness the Seventh Prince was punished, and the Jin Emperor became sick in anger.
Later, it was Zhou Jingyan who brought a divine doctor to treat the Jin Emperor, and then the Jin Emperor’s body began to heal bit by bit.
Ever since then, the Jin Emperor had looked at Zhou Jingyan differently. It was also at that time that Zhou Jingyan began to show his sharpness bit by bit.
In his previous life, the Crown Prince had been assassinated and killed from the very beginning, Zhou Jingyan’s opponent was only the Fifth Prince and Seventh Prince. The Ninth Prince and the Fifth Prince loved beauties alone, and finally died on the beauties. Although the Seventh Prince was punished, he did not lose his favor. Zhou Jingxu was the most doted on by the Jin Emperor, so Zhou Jingyan treated Zhou Jingxu as a thorn in his side. He specially made her cook in the palace, attracting the Ninth Prince to frequently go to the Third Prince’s mansion.
In the end, after Zhou Jingyan had finally killed everyone, he had finally ascended to the throne.
Thinking of this, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but suspect that the Jin Emperor’s body had always been very good. He suddenly exploded out of anger. Was it because someone had poisoned the Jin Emperor’s body from the beginning? The poison slowly accumulated and only waited for it to accumulate to a certain extent. It could induce the poison to explode.
It had to be said that Yun Xiao really was the truth.
Unfortunately, Yun Xiao did not have any evidence to prove her speculation.
“Continue to pay attention to every move in the palace!” After Yun Xiao finished writing this sentence, she suddenly remembered that she had a vacancy in Imperial Kitchen. If something happened to Imperial Kitchen, or if the poison entered the Jin Emperor’s body through food, then she would not be able to escape this calamity now.
No, thinking of this, Yun Xiao immediately continued to write, “Tell Cao Bingrong to keep an eye on every move of the Imperial Cuisine Room. In addition, especially the Jin Emperor’s food, there must be no carelessness.”
Although Qing Mo did not know why Yun Xiao had instructed him like this, since Yun Xiao had instructed him, she could only obey him.
She turned around and was about to leave. Who knew that Chun Lan would suddenly come running in from outside, her forehead covered in sweat.
Qing Mo pressed down on Chun Lan’s shoulder and frowned, “What happened?”
Chun Lan ran all the way here. She didn’t dare to delay the journey for a moment. She had just arrived at the courtyard and was gasping for breath, but she couldn’t say a word.
She took a few breaths and tried to say, “Gu … Miss?”
Qing Mo frowned. He wished he could open Chun Lan’s brain and see what she was going to say. He carried Chun Lan into the room and poured her a cup of tea. He stuffed it into her hand and said, “Drink quickly, drink and talk.”
Chun Lan didn’t care about Qing Mo’s attitude anymore. She took a few big gulps before saying, “I just heard that the deputy manager of the Imperial Cuisine Room had come. He said that he had something urgent to do with our girl. He said that it was related to where he bought the girl’s marriage, so I immediately ran back.”
“What?” Qing Mo shouted, “What does Imperial Kitchen have to do with the girl’s marriage?” Qing Mo couldn’t react.
However, when she turned around, she discovered that Yun Xiao had actually stood up as well, her small face carrying a trace of unconcealable astonishment.
Qing Mo was somewhat shocked by Yun Xiao’s reaction. He walked over and wrote Chun Lan’s words in Yun Xiao’s palm again. Finally, he added, “What should we do?”
Yun Xiao’s body trembled uncontrollably. The thing she was most afraid of was still coming!
When she heard Chun Lan’s words, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but stand up immediately. After hearing Qing Mo’s words, Yun Xiao’s mood was able to calm down a little. She immediately turned around and Bina walked out.
These past few days, she had been in contact with each other in the room day by day. She could feel the location and furnishings of the room clearly. Thus, even though she couldn’t see them now, when she walked out, she still didn’t fall or touch anything at all.
However, after leaving the room, Qing Mo and Chun Lan immediately followed behind and stood beside Yun Xiao, one on the left and one on the right, to guide Yun Xiao.
Originally, it would take less than half an hour to arrive at the main courtyard, but because Yun Xiao was too anxious, she had shortened her time by quite a bit.
When they arrived at the main courtyard, Yun Xiao noticed that the atmosphere in the main courtyard was somewhat stagnant, and no one spoke.
She walked over and greeted Madam Lu, Yun Maozhe, Second Master Yun and the others.
Then, he heard Cao Bingrong’s voice not far away, “Greetings, Manager.”
Qing Mo asked Cao Bingrong to stand up. Yun Xiao was already sitting at the side. She looked at Cao Bingrong with a puzzled expression. Qing Mo had already said on behalf of Yun Xiao, “My lady asks you, what happened in the imperial palace? Why did you say it was related to my lady’s marriage?”
Cao Bingrong’s gaze was also somewhat strange. Ever since Yun Xiao had let him meet Liu Chan last time, coupled with Liu Chan’s words, he clearly knew that Liu Chan was planning to take Yun Xiao as her disciple. Therefore, when he was in the Imperial Palace, he had to do it with even more care. He naturally had to tell Yun Xiao everything as soon as possible.
“Today, I brought my father-in-law to feed the Jin Emperor, Outside the hall, he just happened to hear the divine doctor say that he wanted the Jin Emperor’s body to completely recover. the flesh of the Jin Emperor ‘s own son should be used as medicine, As the saying goes, if the Jin Emperor is in trouble, the Prince should do his best. Therefore, the Third Prince made a prompt decision and took out a dagger not far away. He gouged out a piece of meat from his arm, which moved the Jin Emperor greatly. He praised the Third Prince greatly. After the Jin Emperor drank the medicine made from the Third Prince’s meat, he really felt his body was getting better and better. “That’s why I want to reward the Third Prince. The Third Prince said that he doesn’t want any rewards. He only loves the Fourth Young Lady and asks the Jin Emperor to give him and the Fourth Young Lady a decree to marry …”
Cao Bingrong said as she told him everything she knew.
This matter was not spread out, so only a few people had heard these words at that time. If it wasn’t for him delivering food to the Jin Emperor, they probably wouldn’t have heard such a thing.
After Cao Bingrong returned to Imperial Kitchen, he immediately found an excuse to leave the palace and found Yun Clan. He wanted to tell Yun Xiao about this matter earlier, so he could take precautions earlier.
Yun Xiao had guessed that it was one thing before, but now that she had heard it with her own ears, it was another thing, so her face was also terribly pale.
However, right now, she still had to pretend that she hadn’t heard anything and calm herself down as quickly as possible. At the end of the day, Qing finally knew what kind of connection Imperial Kitchen had with the marriage of the Fourth Young Lady.
Yun Xiao immediately wrote this matter to Yun Xiao. After Yun Xiao finished writing these words at the end of Qing Dynasty, her face was as pale as white paper. She immediately took out a pen and paper and wrote on the table, “I won’t marry!”
The three words were written in such a hurry that they were all connected, but everyone could still see them clearly.
If they were to marry the Third Prince, they would at least be Emperor’s descendants. No matter what, it would be a joyous occasion. However, the current situation of Yun Xiao was known to all the Yun Family. With Yun Xiao’s current appearance, even if she was married to the Third Prince, she would still be lonely. If a blind man saw everything, how could she be a princess?
Furthermore, everyone clearly saw that the Third Prince was doing this for the sake of the Yun Clan’s wealth. If he married Yun Xiao to the Third Prince, the entire Yun Clan would probably be led by the nose by the Third Prince in the future.
Hence, after hearing this news, no one was happy about it. Instead, they all had a sad expression on their faces.
They originally thought that Yun Xiao would happily accept this news after hearing it. What should they do then? They didn’t expect that Yun Xiao would directly say without thinking, “She doesn’t want to marry!”
Seeing that Yun Xiao was so stubborn, the Yun Family finally felt relieved. Moreover, the son-in-law that Yun Maozhe valued the most was Rong Jin.
In addition, Yun Maozhe had already told Rong Jin’s story more than once these past few days, so many people knew about Rong Jin. The Yun Family was also extremely satisfied with Rong Jin, but Yun Xiao was unwilling to marry him, so they had no choice.
Cao Bingrong hated the royal family the most. He came to the Yun Clan to tell Yun Xiao about this matter earlier. Regardless of whether Yun Xiao wanted to marry or not, she should have prepared the dishes earlier. Now that he heard that Yun Xiao had made a decision not to marry into the palace, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He was relieved, but at the same time, he was also annoyed. How could anyone say if the royal marriage was willing or not?
This was the Yun Clan, and there was no outsider here, so Cao Bingrong immediately cupped his hands and said goodbye to everyone.
