Chapter 39
The Ministry of War makes things difficult
"Mom, are you unhappy?"
Yu Xiaobaozi was munching on the noodles while looking at Yu Yunxi with innocent and blank eyes.
Yu Yunxi had already changed into clean clothes and was sitting in the inn. When she heard her son's words of concern, she gave a pale smile.
"Mom, it's okay."
"Is someone bullying my mother? Jin'er can help you get revenge." Little Baozi clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said seriously.
"Mom has not been bullied..."
Yu Yunxi gently rubbed his furry head and answered patiently.
"Qianjiao, what happened to Master?" Qianmei pulled Qianmei aside and asked worriedly.
"I don't know what happened. After the county master entered a house, his mood was not quite right when he came out. By the way, I saw Yu Wanrong here as well." Qianjiao tried her best to recall.
"What house? Yu Wanrong is here too..."
Qian Mei thought for a moment, and suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind.
She asked Qianjiao in a strange tone: "Could it be...the regent's?"
Qianjiao also suddenly realized that it seemed that only matters involving the regent would make the county owner so rude.
They couldn't help but look at Yu Yunxi with worried eyes, not knowing what happened to their master inside.
"Jin'er, I have wronged you and been hiding in the inn these days. Mother promises you that when the flood in Minzhou is better, mother will send someone to escort you back to the southwest."
Yu Yunxi comforted the little bun with a soft voice.
Little Baozi nodded obediently, "Well, actually, there's no rush. Jin'er wants to stay with her mother in the capital for a longer time. Uncle said that you are doing something very dangerous, so you have to protect yourself."
"Yes, mother will do it. Jin'er, mother also promises you that I will only stay here for one year at most. After one year, I will return to the southwest to be with you."
Seeing his well-behaved appearance, the depression in Yu Yunxi's heart also dissipated a lot.
"good."
The two mother and son chatted for a long time. When Qianjiao reminded her that it was getting late, Yu Yunxi had no choice but to say goodbye to Little Baozi.
"Jin'er, you have to listen to Aunt Qianmei, do you understand?" After walking out of the door, Yu Yunxi did not forget to look back and patiently warned her.
"I know, mother, please lower your head, Jin'er has something to tell you." Little Baozi waved to Yun Xi.
Yu Yunxi also bent down obediently.
Little Baozi quickly stepped up and hugged her with his short arms.
He leaned into her ear and said coquettishly: "Mom, did daddy make you angry? Jin'er apologized to you on his behalf. Don't be sad."
Listening to the sweet words in her ears, Yu Yunxi was stabbed in the heart and her eyes turned red.
"Okay, mother, I'm not sad." She won't be sad for someone who doesn't deserve it.
After saying that, Yu Yunxi pinched his cheek and then reluctantly went downstairs.
But what she didn't know was that there was a gaze watching her from the corner upstairs.
"Little Marquis, what are you looking at?" the attendant asked depressedly.
Luo Xiuran closed the fan and frowned: "Isn't that Princess Yi Li's princess?"
"What? Princess Regent?"
"It's strange. Why did she come to the inn so late at night? Did she just hold a child? The distance was too far. I couldn't even see what the child looked like, let alone hear what they said."
Luo Xiuran muttered and wanted to go down and take a look, but Qian Mei had closed the door long ago and he couldn't see anything.
Just at this moment, Jiang Chuan hurried over. He gasped and said, "Little Marquis, I have finally found you. Something happened to our prince."
"What? Isn't your prince taking a medicinal bath at this time? Why did an accident happen? Take me there quickly."
Luo Xiuran's expression suddenly changed. He no longer cared about who the child was. He hurriedly left with Jiang Chuan.
…
The next morning.
Yu Yunxi was woken up by the noise.
She opened the door with a chill all over, only to find that her yard was bustling.
"Hey, the eldest lady is awake. Someone from the Ministry of War is here." Gao Aunt Gao stared at Yu Yunxi with resentful eyes, and then she said angrily.
There were thick blue shadows under her eyes, and it was obvious that she had not slept well all night.
Indeed, Yu Huaping had been having a fever last night. She stayed up all night and was anxious all night. It was strange that she could sleep well.
Mrs. Zhou was on crutches and was being supported by others, and her expression was very bad. She was also thinking about venting her anger on her sweet grandson.
"When this matter at the Ministry of War is over, let's clean up the house and bring justice to Hua'er." She stamped her cane and spoke gloomily.
The Ministry of War? Yu Yunxi said nothing, and the look on his face was extremely cold.
Qianjiao walked over quickly and said in a slightly anxious tone: "County Master, it seems that someone from the Ministry of War has come, and they are very aggressive."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Wanrong walked in at the entrance of the courtyard with a middle-aged man in official uniform, followed by many guards in armor.
It's coming fiercely.
"Master Huang, my sister is the person you are looking for. If you have anything to do, please tell me now." Yu Wanrong nodded and said softly, her tone was extremely gentle.
"I feel a little sorry that I have to trouble Second Young Lady with such a trivial matter." Huang Hongfu said, stroking his beard, pretending to be guilty.
Yu Wanrong covered her mouth, and her smile could be detected through the veil.
She said softly: "Master Huang was sent here personally by the regent, so it is right for Wanrong to take him seriously. Besides, this matter also concerns the Yu family, and that means it concerns me."
"The regent is so kind to the second lady. Before I came out today, he repeatedly told me that he must help you and Prime Minister Yu handle this matter properly." Huang Hongfu said with emotion.
Regent?
When Yu Yunxi heard these three words, her eyelids jumped, and a feeling of uneasiness surged into her heart.
Over there, Huang Hongfu turned to look at Yu Yunxi, his eyes looking at him sharply.
"This must be the county chief from the southwest."
He spoke slowly. Although he called Yu Yunxi the county lord, his tone was not very polite.
Before Yun Xi opened his mouth, he continued: "You went to the Ministry of War to donate things a few days ago. This should have been something worthy of praise. However, you occupied the magpie's nest and took other people's things as your own.
You are trying to give these things to the Ministry of War so that we can be the villain for you. You are clearly teasing the Ministry of War, you are so brave!"
"Did the Prince Regent tell you to say that?"
Yu Yunxi clenched her fingers, straightened her thin shoulders, and asked this sentence word by word with cold eyes.
Feng Yili, you are really ruthless. You only responded to Yu Wanrong last night, and now you take action today.
After hearing Yu Yunxi's words, Huang Hongfu's expression hesitated for a moment.
However, he quickly raised his head and said with great momentum: "That's natural, the Ministry of War is in charge of the regent. Without his order, I would not dare to act arbitrarily."
Sure enough...it's him.
Yu Yunxi lowered his eyes, hiding the expression deep in his eyes, feeling a little tired.
