Chapter 29 Life is Worse than Power

Now that nothing happened, Xia Jingxuan just remembered that Yan Yu was there.

He had done a good job in protecting the princess, and he heard that Yan Yu had gone to Zhunxu Pavilion to serve Xia Jingsheng closely during the few days when he was away. It must have been Lang Youqing's concubine who wanted to do it. Yan Yu was injured, so Xia Jingxuan thought of fulfilling her wish and let her

She stayed in Zhunxu Pavilion, which satisfied her desire to be in a higher position and allow Xia Jingsheng to have a wife as soon as possible. However, she could not make the decision by herself, so she went to discuss it with Xia Jingsheng.

Xia Jingsheng didn't even raise his head, he was busy with what he was doing. He didn't hear what Xia Jingxuan said clearly, so he casually added: "It's up to you."

Little did he know that Xia Jingxuan was going to put someone in his room!

Xia Jingxuan was still very happy, thinking that Xia Jingsheng's thousand-year-old iron tree had blossomed. As soon as he left the study, he arranged for people to carry Yan Yu into the Zhunxu Pavilion, which made others envious of Yan Yu.

The servants who had given gifts in advance to ask for support had already filled Yan Yu's hut, and Yan Yu could only sit with his injuries and thank them one by one.

Yan Li often has the best information, and he was afraid that the informants had conveyed the wrong information. As a result, when people in the capital heard that King Xia was going to make Yan Yu his concubine, Yan Li hurriedly prepared a gift and took his youngest son Yan Li with him.

An took a carriage to the capital that day.

It was almost dusk when the carriage stopped in front of the Xia Mansion. Yan An was young and didn't understand the concept of superiority. He only knew that he was tired. As soon as he entered the mansion, he was led by his servants to the guest room to rest.

As if he was tired, Li Li went to see Xia Jingsheng first, and then rushed into Zhunxu Pavilion to find Yan Yu.

Before Yan Li entered the mansion, the maid in the mansion first went to report a letter to Yan Yu.

Yan Yu was surprised, thinking that Yan Li was worried about her injury and came to visit her. Maybe he knew that the palace was dangerous and could take her home. He was so moved that tears filled his eyes. He insisted on getting up to change his clothes and meet his father decently, but the wound became festering and painful.

It was unbearable, and she couldn't sit up after thrashing around for a long time. Yan Li happened to come into the room and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her to lie down, feeling as if she was distressed.

"Ouch! Don't get up, don't get up! You're seriously injured. Come and cover yourself with the quilt. Don't catch the cold again." Yan Li hurriedly put the quilt on Yan Yu and looked at Yan Yu as if he were looking at the precious gold.

Pimple-like.

"Daddy..." Yan Yu choked, holding Yan Li's arm and crying.

These days, she was filled with sorrow and grievances, but she had no one to talk to, and she kept them all in her heart. Fortunately, her father came to see her.

However, Yan Li seemed not to hear Yan Yu calling her, her whole body was trembling, and her heart was ecstatic, OK! Seeing her precious daughter lying on King Xia's bed with her own eyes, wasn't she going to achieve success?

"But... don't dare to hurt Feng's body... just lie down." Yan Li breathed heavily and murmured.

"What... phoenix body?" Yan Yu's heart suddenly went cold, phoenix body?

Did Yan Li really treat her as a princess like others? You must know that Xia Jingsheng was busy with official duties and never touched her. Those were all rumors spread by outsiders!

"Dad, Yu'er is your daughter. How can a little concubine deserve... a phoenix body?"

"Dad knows it all!" Yan Li smiled widely, his beard twitching in response, "Dad knows it. It's normal for a daughter to be shy. You are going to be the princess. What a beautiful girl! Daddy.

Sure enough, I saw you right! In just a few days, I have already stayed in Zhunxu Pavilion, much better than your useless sister!"

Yan Yu's heart sank, her biological father actually came here for power.

"Dad, my daughter is injured." Yan Yu whispered.

"Father knows that if you are favored by King Xia, a minor injury is nothing." Yan Li responded with a smile.

A small injury? What a small injury.

"The wound has suppurated, and the imperial doctor said it will leave scars."

Hearing this sentence, Yan Li panicked and said anxiously: "Leave a scar? How can you leave a scar? The scar is ugly. If the prince is displeased, what will he do if he abandons you! You are the same, don't pay attention to yourself!"

I'll think of a way and ask your eldest sister to send a few bottles of medicine from the palace. You can use it and be sure to remove the scar! If you can't remove it, Yanfu will not let you stay! You can go wherever you like!

Drive out of the palace, but don’t embarrass the Yan family!”

What a scolding.

"I came back from the den of thieves and almost died. I have been bedridden. I finally looked forward to your arrival, but what you care about most...is whose bed I will sleep on..." Yan Yu sobbed softly.

.

Disappointment, helplessness, and pain were all mixed together, and Yan Yu really wanted to commit suicide.

Why! Is power so important?

Yan Li was stunned, thought for a while, and then pretended to coax Yan Yu, but in his heart he complained that Yan Yu had no future.

Yan Yu no longer believed in him. She knew that Yan Li was just afraid that he would fall and ruin the Yan family's path to glory and wealth. Why? If the Yan family wants to advance, they must send their daughters abroad. Yan Li, you

Cruel enough.

Yan Yu was furious, but still couldn't control himself.

"I will never...never stay up. I can't do such charming and seductive things! The prince has never touched me!" Yan Yu growled.

The anger that had been accumulated for sixteen years broke out at this moment, but it was just a word. The fact was before her eyes that she was nothing and could do nothing.

Yan Li stared in disbelief at first. The most obedient daughter in the family spoke back for the first time, and she actually ignored the future of the entire Yan family?!

"Crack!"

The next second, a trace of blood appeared on Yan Yu's originally pale face.

Yan Li retracted his hand in fear. He couldn't control it. He watched Yan Yu turn his face away, closed his eyes, suppressed his tears and then looked back at him coldly, as if he was extremely disappointed, but so what?

Yan Li immediately regained his seriousness, straightened his back and shouted sternly: "Then you will stay in Prince Xia's Mansion and be an old maid for the rest of your life! Don't recognize me as your father again!"

So what if I'm wrong? Yan Li is Yan Yu's father. He has always been the one who has always been in favor of Yan Yu. How could he admit his mistake to her?

Xia Jingyan stood at the door of Zhunxu Pavilion for an unknown amount of time. His original intention was to visit Yan Yu. Yan Yu saved Lu Chaoya. Even if he hated Yan Yu, he should come and say thank you in person. He didn't want to hear these words.

It turns out that this is the case, what a good magistrate! He is worse than a beast! Xia Jingyan ordered his servants to open the door and entered Zhunxu Pavilion with a cold face.

When Yan Li heard the door open, he thought it was some maid who didn't understand the rules and came into the room to serve tea in front of him without even announcing it. He was about to curse a few words and let out a few words, but he didn't expect to turn around and saw that it was Xia Jingyan.

, almost losing his waist, he hurriedly supported the seat to stand up and then knelt down to salute. Yan Yu also supported the bed and wanted to get up.

"No need to be polite," Xia Jingyan said.

Yan Li happened to have time to pay homage, and was secretly happy. He thought that Xia Jingyan probably knew that his daughter would soon be her sister-in-law, and recognized him as an elder. Just as he was about to stand up, he heard Xia Jingyan add: "I

Say Yanyu didn’t tell you anything.”

This was the case. Xia Jingyan was worried about Yan Yu's injury so he didn't need her to salute. How could Yan Li not bow to her? He really regarded himself as a figurehead.

Yan Li could only kneel back down with a straight face.

In Dongjiang worship, one needs to kowtow to the person with a high position, and the person with a high position is not allowed to raise his head.

Xia Jingyan didn't respond, and Yan Li kept kneeling there. Xia Jingyan slowly sat down next to Yan Yu, picked up the tea on the table and moistened his throat, and said "get up" after a long time.

She was just wasting Yan Li, trying to kill Yan Li's prestige and make Yan Li see her position clearly.

"Get up" instead of "free from courtesy", Yan Yu could tell that Xia Jingyan was deliberately trying to embarrass Yan Li. He must have heard the conversation between the two just now, and Yan Yu felt uneasy in his heart.

When Xia Jingyan found out Yan Li's original intention of sending her into the mansion, what would happen to her? Will she drive him out of the mansion? Or punish the Yan family, and that would be the end of it! But Yan Yu didn't dare to interrupt, so she could only wait and see what would happen.

.

Xia Jingyan sat on the couch, thinking about it, but he still couldn't be impulsive. If he got into trouble again, wouldn't it cause more trouble for his brother? It was better to leave it alone and let Yan Yu handle the family affairs by himself. She was only responsible for visiting and reporting the matter to Xia Jingsheng.

.

"This is the pearl ointment specially prepared by the imperial doctor. It is good for your injuries. Long-term use can remove scars." Xia Jingyan took out a jade bottle about the size of a fist from his arms and gave it to Yan Yu's hand.

"Yan Yu thanked the princess." Yan Yu nodded lightly towards Xia Jingyan.

"As for whether you can really get the favor of Brother Wang, it depends on your own destiny." Xia Jingyan leaned into Yan Yu's ear again and whispered: "You saved Chao Ya and you are kind to me. I won't stop you, but I

I won’t help you either.”

Yan Yu was shocked, she really knew everything, but after hearing this, Xia Jingyan probably had no intention of punishing her. Also, although Xia Jingyan was young, he was well-versed in the world, so he would not harm her because of this matter.

"Thank you, Princess." Yan Yu whispered.

It was almost nightfall, and Xia Jingyan didn't have anything else to say, so he stood up and prepared to leave. He told Yan Yu to get some rest before going out.

Lu Chaoya was waiting at the door. When she saw Xia Jingyan coming out, she glared at Yan Li and followed Xia Jingyan.

Yan Li sat down for a while and then went into the guest room to rest. His youngest son Yan An had just woken up and was clamoring to see his sister. Yan Li had no choice but to ask the palace officials to send Yan An to Zhunxu Pavilion.

Yan Yu didn't know that Yan An was coming, she was crying quietly.

"Sister...what's wrong with you?" Yan An has always been a little crybaby. When he saw Yan Yu crying, he felt aggrieved.

"An'er!" Yan Yu looked at the door in surprise when she heard this voice. It was her dearest brother, "Why are you here?"

"Dad brought me here." Yan An walked to Yan Yu, his eyes were red, and he was extremely aggrieved, "Sister, don't you want to be here? An'er wants you to go home, and An'er misses you."

In the eyes of outsiders, Yan An is young and promising, with far-reaching knowledge. He is even more knowledgeable than Yan Li when he is in his teens, and his martial arts skills are quite impressive. He is a talent that can be made. He works hard at everything he learns. He is a resolute little man who only has

In front of Yan Yu, he would look like a little crybaby.

"No, how could it be? Your Majesty treats your sister very well." Yan Yu wiped Yan An's tears.

Poor Yan An, this miserable child, lost his mother at a young age and was raised by a concubine. A few years later, his dearest sister was also sent to the prince's palace as a gift.

"An'er, my sister is from a daughter's family, and she will eventually get married. If she can marry the prince, it will be the blessing that she has cultivated in her three lifetimes. She will not be wronged."

Yan Yu said that, just so that Yan An wouldn't worry.

"Sister, don't cry." Yan An took out his hand and wiped Yan Yu's tears, hating that he was now incapable of protecting his sister and taking her home.

"An'er, you have to work hard, you know? Listen to the academics, even if it's for you, my sister must serve the prince." Yan Yu said, feeling like a knife was twisting in his heart.

Although King Xia is a good person, Yanyu has only known him for a few days. Who is willing to entrust his life to a stranger?

Forget it, a concubine with a humble status and fate, what qualifications does she have to seek perfection?

Early the next morning, Yan Li packed up his clothes. A county magistrate who could stay in the palace for one day had already benefited from his daughter. How could he bother her any more? He immediately got up and left the mansion.

Yan Yu couldn't walk around yet, so he didn't send Yan Li off. Only a few low-class maids sent Yan Li out of the house.

It's peaceful here, but it's still lively over there in the west wing!
