N-A-A Chapter 1712 No Need for Serving
Chapter 1712 No Need for Serving
When Zhou Shiyue returned to the banquet hall, everyone saw that he was alright and had come out again, so those who had been worried about him were relieved.
Although Lord Chen and Lin Rong were already somewhat drunk, they visibly relaxed when they saw Zhou Shiyue approaching.
They were worried when they saw Zhou Shiyue leave the banquet hall, because it was impossible for nothing to happen on such a grand wedding day at the Prince's residence. Now that Zhou Shiyue has returned, they figured that anything that happened must have been dealt with.
The Crown Prince breathed a sigh of relief. The Grand Master had returned to the banquet hall, and Madam Yao had also come over. Madam Yao heard him say a few words in a low voice.
The doctor only said that the girl from that clan was probably framed in the guest courtyard of the Prince's mansion, but she is still unconscious and there is a problem.
Yao's heart was in her throat.
The guards from the Prince's residence came and led her to the guest courtyard.
Everyone else had left. Yin Yunting waited there, and upon seeing her, he said, "Madam Fu, please come in and take a look. Is this your niece from your clan? If you recognize her, please tell us who she is familiar with and close to. Because she has some health problems right now, we used a talisman to put her to sleep, so she can't answer your questions. Don't be too surprised when you see her later, and don't tell anyone yet."
Doctor Fu was already quite familiar with Lu Zhaoling, and the Fu family had received so many of Lu Zhaoling's talismans, and had witnessed the immense power of his talismans. Therefore, they were very accepting of the use of talismans.
Upon hearing Yin Yunting's words, Madam Yao immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry, Young Master Yin, I won't say anything I shouldn't." She quickly added, "I actually have very little contact with those people in the clan. I don't know what they're doing. You must believe me, Young Master Yin, that I'm standing with my husband's family now, and I've never had any intention of harming the Prince or Miss Lu."
Seeing that she seemed a little nervous, Yin Yunting quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, Madam, we know all this. The Prince and Senior Sister also know, otherwise they wouldn't have just invited you to come and recognize people."
Today, Yao Shi is still helping out at Huaiyuan. Yin Yunting is naturally aware of their sincerity and affection for Lu Zhaoling, so he has never doubted Yao Shi.
Seeing that he was still kind and trusting, Yao felt relieved and went into the room.
Fu Cheng also came with his mother. He said, "Brother Yin, I'll go in and take a look too. If it's someone my age, I might know more about them than my mother does."
Fu Cheng was also clever and quick-witted. Yin Yunting nodded and said, "Okay, go and take a look, but the two of you should not get too close."
The mother and son went inside and took a look. Sure enough, they recognized her. However, they were still startled when they saw Yao's very obvious and terrifying dark circles under her eyes. They really didn't know why a perfectly healthy person would suddenly have such dark circles under her eyes.
It looks like someone punched him, but why is it that only the area around his eyes is black, while his eyelids are the same color? It looks very strange.
Because her eyes had become like this, and she was asleep, although it was clear that she was indeed the girl from the clan, Yao hesitated because the matter was of great importance and she was afraid that she might not recognize her properly and harm her.
Fu Cheng said from the side, "Mother, I think I heard before that this little girl fell and injured herself when she was a child, and she has some small scars on her ankle."
When he mentioned it, Yao remembered it too. Indeed, there had been a few children who were making a ruckus before, and this girl happened to be nearby and was accidentally injured by them.
She asked Yin Yunting if she could take a look, and Yin Yunting naturally agreed.
Ms. Yao then removed the other person's shoes and socks to verify.
"It's her." She was now certain.
“Since it’s this younger sister, I roughly know who she’s been spending a lot of time with lately,” Fu Cheng said from the side. “This is indeed a matter for our generation, and no one would tell their elders casually, so Mother and you may not know.”
“Let’s go outside and talk,” Yin Yunting said.
He has summoned two ghost messengers and ordered them to guard this place.
The wedding banquet lasted a long time, and as the banquet came to an end, the guests left in batches.
Some left, while others took the opportunity to speak with the Prince of Jin.
Some were so drunk they were unconscious and stayed in the side room to sober up.
Some were reluctant to part, so they changed tea and continued chatting.
Opportunities to eat and drink at the Prince of Jin's mansion are rare.
The chances of the Prince of Jin having such a proper conversation with them are even fewer.
Some officials were concerned about the people and the administration of the country, and they came here for other purposes as well. In the end, they even whispered to the crown prince.
Since they've come all this way, they're bound to find out the direction of the wind.
The Emperor and Empress are both here today, and the ministers are curious to know what the two are thinking.
So, with all these things delayed, it got to night.
The lights came on, turning everything red.
The aroma of the wine lingered for a long time.
Zhou Shiyue left the outside affairs to others and went back to his room.
The girls who had come to the new house before naturally all left.
Lu Zhaoling changed into lighter clothes and fell asleep in bed.
When Zhou Shiyue arrived, Qingyin and Qingbao were still guarding the door.
"You must be tired today, go and rest." Zhou Shiyue gestured for them to leave.
Qingyin paused for a moment.
Qingbao was more direct, "Your Highness, don't you need us to serve you tonight?"
Zhou Shiyue didn't understand what she meant at first.
Then Granny Qing arrived.
"Your Highness, if there are some things you don't understand, may I have Old Yun come and explain them to you? Also, the kitchen will always have water on hand tonight, and I'll arrange for a few maids to wait outside the courtyard."
Granny Qing was afraid that her master was too shy, so she spoke to him in a low voice.
At this moment, she had mixed feelings.
It seems that no one has ever taught the prince these things.
The palace did offer to send him two maids to tutor him, but the prince refused at the time.
The two maids she originally trained for the prince are now completely devoted to the princess, and don't want to look at the prince even once.
Even Granny Qing wouldn't do something like summoning all of the princess's personal maids to serve the prince.
Moreover, she now hopes that the prince will be devoted to the princess and have no other ulterior motives.
But that's just how it is—
Will the prince actually consummate the marriage?
Zhou Shiyue finally understood what they meant.
His face immediately hardened.
"All of you, step back and rest. I'm tired today and won't do anything."
Why prepare water all night?
He really wants to stay up all night!
It's infuriating!
After saying that, he chased the person away without further ado.
After leaving the courtyard, Granny Qing was still in a daze.
"No, Your Highness, how could he do this?"
Qingyin and Qingbao exchanged a glance, both maids looking somewhat embarrassed.
"Granny, let's listen to the prince."
"No, how can he not consummate the marriage just because he's tired? That would be unfair to the Princess!" Granny Qing exclaimed angrily.
