He motioned the maid to retreat and said, "In that case, I will give you ten thousand gold."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Chu Yan kowtowed respectfully, behaved magnanimously, and did not feel there was anything wrong with what he did.
Li Ping gave her a lot of money, but they were all shady things and she couldn't spend them at will.
Asking her to ask Chang Zhe for money, she really didn't want to.
If the prince rewards her, it will be much easier for her in the capital, and she may even be able to escape from Changzhe.
"Miss Yan is very special."
Xiao Tong said something again, and Chu Yan stood up, his face stiffened, and he frowned subconsciously.
If it was according to etiquette, she would still have to kneel down.
Therefore, she was a little unhappy.
Xiao Tong seemed to see what she was thinking, and was immediately amused by her subconscious reaction, and said hurriedly, "That's it, sit down."
So Chu Yan sat down with peace of mind.
Getting the money made her feel good.
Even Changzhe discovered it.
"In the future, you will be responsible for managing the expenses and income of the general's palace. Why should you ask the prince for money?"
Chang Zhe said something in her ear.
Chu Yan raised her eyes and glanced at him. Li Ping could see that he liked money. Could it be that Chang Zhe didn't know about it?
She had been living in the General's Mansion for several days, and the man had never mentioned this matter, nor even offered to give her any money.
But it was all because Yu Lian made him a little anxious, and he had evil intentions, so he was still waiting and watching.
Yesterday, when she went back, she mentioned Yu Lian's affairs and let him know Yu Lian's little thoughts. Chang Zhe might have seen something about Yu Lian's character, and now she came to express her loyalty.
If he had been firmer, Chu Yan would not look down on him like this.
Chu Yan fiddled with the tea cup in front of her carelessly and said calmly, "More money is not a bad thing, right? I don't like that jewelry."
She made no secret of her disgust towards that thing.
Chang Zhe was stunned for a moment, frowning and staring at the woman next to him, with a hint of impatience in his eyes, "At least it was a gift from the prince, so you still..."
Chu Yan suddenly raised his eyes.
Her eyes were so clear, so bright that they seemed to scare people's hearts.
Chang Zhe subconsciously closed his mouth and found that Chu Yan was very cold at this time, which made him panic.
"I see."
Chang Zhe was speechless.
At this moment, someone came over to propose a toast, and Chang Zhe had to deal with it.
Only then did Chu Yan have some free time.
She was too drunk and did not dare to drink more. She just looked at the hypocritical masks on everyone's faces in boredom.
Maybe it was because she was really beautiful, and she acted bravely in rejecting the prince, so from time to time, several young ladies from rich families would come over to talk to her.
"Yanyan..."
While he was talking, Yu Lian came over holding a wine glass.
Chu Yan's lips curled up into a smile, but he didn't speak.
Yu Lian held her arm and looked like they had a good relationship with her, "This dress looks really good on you, I'll just say it suits you."
"You picked this?"
Someone next to me said something immediately.
Yu Lian hurriedly said, "Of course, how else could Brother Chang have such vision? I asked him to buy it. I thought Yanyan couldn't live without a good-looking dress when attending the banquet."
After she explained this, the expressions of the people around her changed several times.
Chu Yan caught a glimpse of Li Xuan, who was gradually walking behind them, and smiled.
"You and Chang Zhe have such a good relationship, no wonder he insisted on marrying you before."
Chu Yan said something exaggerated, but Yu Lian didn't seem to realize the problem, and a shy expression appeared on her face, and she pretended to be coy.
"Don't say such nonsense."
"You can't talk nonsense anymore. Chang Zhe also said that you were not having a good life at your husband's house. There were still marks of being beaten on your hands. He felt sorry for you. He blamed himself for not coming back to you earlier. It's a pity that you
If you are not married, he will definitely marry you."
After what Chu Yan said, Yu Lian's expression suddenly changed.
"What did you say?"
"Isn't it? Chang Zhe said that the injury on your hand was caused by your husband. He also said that your husband wouldn't let you go out. He also said that he forced you to marry him. Isn't that true?"
Chu Yan was born with a pair of innocent eyes. When she looked at her like this, everyone would believe her.
What's more, the aura between Chang Zhe and Li Xun just now was not harmonious, which is even more confusing.
"Chu Yan, you are talking nonsense!"
Yu Lian was anxious.
She knows better than anyone that this is a lie.
Chu Yan shrugged, "Could it be that Chang Zhe deliberately lied to me in order to rekindle his old relationship with you? Oh, he just said that I would be responsible for managing the income and expenditure of the General's Mansion in the future. Why is he getting involved with you all of a sudden?
Not clear?"
"Yes, I heard General Chang say that just now."
There was someone nearby who hurriedly agreed.
Yu Lian's entire face became paler. She was shaking all over, gasping for air, and trying hard to win the game.
"Chu Yan! They don't know, right? You were naked when you were in Qinggan Village. It was Chang Zhe who rescued you. You were the one who took advantage of this opportunity to hook up with Chang Zhe."
"You are such a fox!"
Yu Lian's voice suddenly became torn apart.
Many people around heard it, and even the prince glanced this way.
Chu Yan just paused and quickly returned to normal.
She didn't expect Chang Zhe to even tell Yu Lian about this, and it seemed that he really cared about it.
She looked far ahead and looked at the man who quickly turned away. She had not found a chance to completely separate from Chang Zhe. Today... isn't this a good opportunity?
Chu Yan will still live in the capital in the future. She just wants to kill people with a soft knife. It can only be because others have failed her, not her.
The infamy Changzhe made her bear in her previous life should be left to him in this life.
I saw Chu Yan looking like he was about to cry, his eyes full of tears, "How did you know about this? Chang Zhe saved me, which means he is an upright person. Does this have anything to do with me being a foxy person?"
What does it have to do with my son?"
"Who knows if you fell on purpose?"
"Why do you think of others like this? If it was because of Chang Zhe who brought me back to the capital, I would leave the General's Mansion from then on. I know that you have a good relationship and he has always protected you. Now you regret not waiting for him. I
Just give him to you, don’t hurt others with such words, I am innocent, I..."
Before she finished speaking, she burst into tears.
With more and more people around, Yu Lian suddenly started to panic.
She saw her husband in the crowd and felt a sudden chill on her back.
Yu Lian had a very bad premonition. Only then did she realize what she had just said. If Li Xuan heard it, she could not imagine the consequences.
She wanted to quit.
But how could Chu Yan give her this opportunity?
She saw her tightly clenching Yu Lian's wrist, and the other party immediately began to struggle violently.
"Let go, you bitch!"
"ah!"
Chu Yan was slapped by her and fell to the ground.
She covered her face with her hands. In fact, she had covered her face with her hands just now. The crisp sound was just hit on the back of her hand, but so what, who cares?
