Early the next morning, Chu Huanyan was still woken up.

Opening her eyes and looking at the curtains on the top of the bed, Chu Huanyan twitched her lips as she listened to the noise coming from outside the room, "They all really take turns to appear."

After slowly getting up and dressing, Chu Huanyan opened the door.

In the courtyard, Chu Ziyuan was stopped by Yun Chen and was not allowed to come near. He was so angry that he cursed loudly.

Seeing Chu Huanyan finally come out, she shouted angrily: "Sister, why is he still here!"

Chu Huanyan glanced at Yun Chen and said, "He is the guard I brought back. Is there anything wrong with staying in the house?"

"Of course not, you know I can't stand him!" Chu Ziyuan frowned.

"There are so many people that my second brother can't stand." Chu Huanyan sneered.

Chu Ziyuan looked at Chu Huanyan in confusion, and his heart became even more angry because of this smile, "Sister, what's wrong with you, you..."

"You came to my yard early in the morning and made a lot of noise, probably not just to ask me why Yunchen is still there."

Yesterday, Chu Ziyuan and Chu Wanyan had an unsuccessful argument, and there was no one at the Ministry of Household Affairs to comfort them. If she guessed correctly, the quarrel would have already reached the Yamen.

"Someone has come from the Yamen. They are waiting outside now. They actually said they would take me back to the Yamen for trial. It's simply ridiculous!" Chu Ziyuan gritted his teeth and didn't care about Yun Chen's affairs anymore. "Sister, hurry up. Think of a way!"

"There is no other way." Chu Huanyan spread her hands and refused simply, "It is your duty to cooperate with the Yamen in the trial. Now that people are here, you'd better go to the trial as soon as possible."

"Sister, are you crazy?" Chu Ziyuan looked at Chu Huanyan in surprise, "You actually asked me to go to trial. Do you want to see me go to jail?"

Hearing this sharp and rude voice, a flash of coldness quickly flashed across Yun Chen's eyes, and his eyes looking at Chu Ziyuan added a bit of indescribable darkness.

"You don't want to go to jail, so why didn't you go to the House of the Minister of Revenue to apologize yesterday?"

"Sister, I want to ask you again, why don't you..."

Before Chu Ziyuan finished his words of accusation, he suddenly choked when he noticed Chu Huanyan's cold eyes.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Ever since he came back from Wangbai Tower, the eldest sister's attitude had become very strange. Not only was she very cold towards him, she even allowed the Minister of Household Affairs to sue him to the Yamen!

You know, in the past, the eldest sister would handle these matters properly for him!

"It's nothing, it's just..." Chu Huanyan sighed quietly, "I think Wan Yan said something, and it's true."

"Chu Wanyan?" Chu Ziyuan's expression changed, "What did she say?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Chu Huanyan shook her head and glanced at Chu Ziyuan again, "As the eldest sister, I advise you to go to the Yamen as soon as possible to answer the trial, and then go to the House of the Ministry of Revenue to apologize. If you delay it any longer, I'm afraid you will have to He has gained a reputation as someone who despises the laws of the imperial court."

It was impossible for Chu Ziyuan not to understand the consequences of not going to answer the trial, and to be entangled with him here now was just to expect him to clean up the mess for him.

Chu Ziyuan looked at Chu Huanyan with a disappointed face, "Sister, do you really don't care about me?"

"You will be eighteen soon. If this matter cannot be solved, then... you are really not as good as Wan Yan. How can I rest assured that you will take on the responsibility of the Hou Mansion in the future." Chu Huanyan was also disappointed. color.

Chu Ziyuan's eyebrows were almost furrowed, and he became more and more suspicious of what Chu Wanyan said.

And just now, the boy came to report again, saying that people from the Yamen were already urging him.

Seeing Chu Huanyan's resolute attitude, Chu Ziyuan gritted his teeth bitterly and looked at her for a while. Finally, he left the yard in annoyance and followed to the Yamen to attend the trial.

"Miss, do you want to send someone to check on the prince's situation at the Yamen and come back at any time to report?"

Because of Chu Huanyan's constant concern in the past, Xianyue asked subconsciously.

"No need." Chu Huanyan shook her head.

If he found out that he had sent someone there, Chu Ziyuan would definitely count on him again.

It’s time for Chu Ziyuan to taste the bitter fruit of beating people!

……

At noon, news came from outside the house that Lin Zeyuan had gone out.

Chu Huanyan estimated the time, and not long after, he took Xian Yue out of the house together.

But when I got on the carriage, I found that the driver was gone and replaced by Yun Chen sitting in the driving position.

"My subordinate is driving for the young lady." Yun Chen lowered his head and spoke.

Chu Huanyan didn't say anything more, nodded slightly, and got into the carriage.

About half an hour later, the carriage stopped on the street outside Fujin Tower.

Fujin Tower is the largest brothel in the imperial city, and most of the people who come there are princes, nobles and wealthy businessmen. Because it is built on the lake, at night, lanterns of various colors are hung high and reflected on the water surface, making it look like floating light and gold, and it looks like a pavement of colorful brocades, hence the name.

Chu Huanyan got off the carriage and walked into the building with Xian Yue and Yun Chen. Although it was daytime, there was still the sound of silk and bamboo. Every scene and thing is luxurious yet elegant.

When the waiter in the building saw Chu Huanyan come in, and saw that Yun Chen had a cold temperament, resembling a thug, he thought it was a female family member from a wealthy family who came to arrest someone, so he stepped forward to stop him in a panic.

"If you want a private room, the best food and wine will be served." Xian Yue spoke before the waiter, and followed Chu Huanyan's instructions and handed over a one hundred tael silver note.

The waiter immediately beamed with joy and respectfully invited the person to the private room on the second floor.

"Is there a girl named Yue Yiyi in your Fujinlou?" Chu Huanyan sat down at the table and asked the waiter.

The clerk's expression changed and he asked cautiously: "Miss, what are you asking about?"

"Don't get me wrong." Chu Huanyan pointed at the cold-faced Yun Chen at the side, "This is my younger brother. He has had a cold face since he was a child. My parents wanted to marry him, but in the end he looked down on everyone, and he was so arrogant towards you. Miss Yiyi from Jinlou fell in love with her at first sight. As a sister, I have been so beaten by him that I have no choice but to come and see for myself. If I am really a talented person..."

Chu Huanyan didn't continue what she said, but from her expression to her tone, she was gentle, and she didn't look like she was looking for trouble.

Seeing this, the guy felt relieved.

Just think that Chu Huanyan wanted to see it for herself. If she was a good person, she could redeem her brother and make him a concubine or something.

"So that's it. But back to Young Master, this is really unfortunate. Miss Yiyi has a guest now."

"Then I will find a way to send the guest away in advance. No matter how much money he gives, I will give him three times the money. In addition, if the negotiation is good, it is not impossible to give him several times more ransom money." Chu Huanyan said with a look. Looks like he doesn't really care.

"This..." The clerk looked hesitant, "That young man seems to be a regular customer of Miss Yiyi."

"Since you are a regular customer, why not just spend money to book the place and save Miss Yiyi from seeing other people?"

Chu Huanyan looked confused, then chuckled again.

"I'm afraid I don't have enough money in my pocket. You have to be careful. Don't work so hard to take care of the guests and end up not having enough money to settle the bill."
