Chapter 574 Gonghuo
Zhou Chang didn't expect at first that after Yuan Yun had inquired for a long time, she only found out that Prince Yi and Mei Sheng lived together. Then he was glad that Yuan Yun never mentioned Yuan Qi from beginning to end.
Mei Sheng's problem is easier to handle after all.
Zhou Chang sighed heavily: "Well, let them all go first, we can talk slowly if we have anything to say."
The main reason I said this is to get Meisheng to leave this place of trouble first.
The skinny monkey took the opportunity to push Meisheng out.
"Don't go..." Yuan Yun was not so easy to fool.
Zhou Chang was even more nonchalant: "Didn't you say you didn't want to keep anyone here? Then just let them go."
Yuan Yun had just lost face, so she was unwilling to let him go easily: "Your Majesty, you know that's not what I meant. I meant to expel him from the palace. Humph, based on his past, if the truth is exposed, it won't be as simple as expelling him from the palace..."
"You dare..." Zhou Chang was furious again.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Yuan Yun's tears had long since dried on her face, and she also put her hands on her hips, "Does the prince want to do anything to me for him?"
Zhou Chang was unable to catch his breath and threatened: "I can't do anything to you, but if you want to ruin Lin Qishen's reputation, I will definitely not let you off easily."
"Not easy? Haha..." Yuan Yun smiled and started to cry again, "Not easy, so what? The prince would do his best to protect such a bitch, and with such an identity, the prince would travel thousands of miles to sacrifice his life to save her, haha... Then what about me? Your legally married wife, where do you put me?"
Zhou Chang had anticipated that Yuan Yun could not be unaware of why Prince Yi was rushing to the north, but facing Yuan Yun's questioning, she was indeed speechless.
The air froze for a moment.
Instead, Nanny Sun stepped forward and held Yuan Yun back, whispering to her, "Why are you talking nonsense again, Princess? Didn't you say before that you wanted to have a good discussion with the prince?"
Zhou Chang felt relieved when he heard this, and he also slowed down his tone: "All of you go down, I will have a good talk with the princess."
"No..." Yuan Yun was so angry that no one could stop her. She pointed at Mei Sheng with red eyes and said, "Even if I let you escape today, if I want to, it would be as easy as crushing an ant to death."
"Then there is nothing to discuss?" Zhou Chang was provoked again. "Now if you agree to release him, I will pretend that this incident never happened. If you don't..."
"What if I don't release him?" Yuan Yun raised her eyebrows. "Your Highness, you can give it a try. I don't even need to do anything to Lin Qi. As long as the news of what he did gets out, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his status as a Jinshi. Not to mention being ruined, even imprisonment and exile would be the least of his punishment."
"You dare?" Zhou Chang grabbed Yuan Yun's wrist.
"Wow... The prince bullied me..." Yuan Yun suddenly burst into tears out of grievance.
Zhou Chang didn't buy it.
Although Prince Yi was tall and strong, it was still clear how much strength he had exerted.
Nanny Sun came up to mediate: "Hey, Your Highness, if you have anything to say, please talk it over nicely. The princess's arms are like green onions. You should use your hands gently..."
"Ah... Mammy, you see, he only knows how to bully me, and you always tell me to be patient..." Yuan Yun cried even louder, "Now that it has come to this, what else can I do? What else can I do..."
"Get out." Zhou Chang roared, and at the same time released the hand that was holding Yuan Yun.
The air was filled with gunpowder. Everyone fell silent and began to move away.
The skinny monkey took the opportunity to carry Meisheng away.
Zhou Chang let go and felt regretful.
To be fair, from Yuan Yun's perspective, what does Prince Yi's behavior matter?
Yuan Yun cried bitterly while holding her arm that was taken back.
Nanny Sun coaxed them and advised them, "According to this old servant, you two should not get angry. If you have anything to say, go inside and talk slowly."
"Don't cry yet, go inside first and don't embarrass yourself here." Zhou Chang felt guilty again, but he couldn't find any nice words to say to comfort her.
Yuan Yun, however, just sobbed and didn't say anything.
"It's cold, and everyone's temper is tough. It's just a matter of dealing with an unrelated servant. This matter can be discussed. Princess, go in and have a couple of cups of hot wine with the prince to warm up your body, and everyone will be calm. There will be nothing to say at that time." Nanny Sun advised and pushed Yuan Yun.
Yuan Yun stopped crying and wiped her tears with her handkerchief: "It's easy for Madam to say that. I don't have the face to ask you to come to our place for dinner even after I invited you three times..."
These words were obviously meant for Prince Yi to hear, so how could Zhou Chang not know it? Moreover, now that things had come to this point, she had to appease Yuan Yun and not let her spread Mei Sheng's affairs.
It’s not that Mei Sheng really did anything, but making groundless accusations will only make things worse.
Yuan Yun and Nanny Sun sang in unison.
Zhou Chang walked down the stairs and said, "It's good that you don't cry. I was busy with work before, not because I didn't want to spend time with you. Look, the sun is setting now, let's go in and talk properly."
Yuan Yun finally burst into laughter and said, "Since Your Majesty says so, please go ahead."
Zhou Chang was about to turn around and go back to the bedroom, but he was still worried. He turned back to the servants who had hidden outside the courtyard and said, "What you heard about Lin Qi today is not true. I don't want anyone to discuss this matter anymore. If I hear any gossip that I don't want to hear in the future, I will blame you. Did you hear that?"
"Yes." Everyone poked their heads out to answer.
Zhou Chang was still worried and chased after him a few more steps.
The skinny monkey was helping Meisheng walk back, but Meisheng looked back worriedly.
"Monkey..." Zhou Chang gave his final instructions, "Take Meisheng downstairs and see if he's okay. Go get a doctor if necessary."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." The skinny monkey agreed readily.
Zhou Chang didn't even look at Mei Sheng. He sighed in his heart, turned around, and followed Yuan Yun into the bedroom.
Everyone finally felt relieved.
The two of them entered the bedroom and didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment.
It was Nanny Sun who stepped forward to liven up the atmosphere: "Alas, there is no couple that doesn't quarrel, but they quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. Your Majesty, you have wrongly blamed the princess. The princess had originally prepared a banquet tonight and wanted to drink with your Majesty. You two take a seat first, and I will have someone serve the food."
After saying that, Nanny Sun gently pushed Yuan Yun again and pushed her towards Zhou Chang.
Yuan Yun was pushed, as if she had received some reminder, and she perked up and smiled at Zhou Chang: "Yes, I almost ruined the mood of that lowly creature. Your Highness, please take a seat. I'll ask them to bring up some hot tea."
Zhou Chang was displeased when he heard the words "low-life embryo", but he didn't want to argue over a name anymore, so he turned around and sat down in the chair on the left side of the upper seat: "No need for hot tea or wine, as long as we can talk calmly for a few minutes."
