After my rebirth, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle
Chapter 26 Compensation
Lu Linchu stood up calmly, and before being taken away by the palace servants, he helped Fu Guiyun up first, and said solemnly: "I will never owe you a favor, and I will return you every penny of the money you paid for."
"Thank you."
Fu Guiyun's heart was relieved and he watched him "die heroically".
When he was unfilial, the sound of beating could be clearly heard from the yard.
Everyone just stared in silence as the prince was severely beaten with fifty boards, while Ye Zhilan just stared outside from beginning to end without blinking.
Everyone's mind was as clear as a mirror at this moment:
The princess' heart is no longer as soft as it used to be.
After the torture was over, the prince was sent away and the palace servants were dismissed. Only then did Ye Zhilan put away his anger and quickly kept Fu Guiyun.
"You silly child, how can you use your own dowry money to help that evildoer fill the deficit?"
Although Ye Zhilan was touched, the Lu family never took advantage of others, especially the dowries of female relatives.
"It was an emergency, and I was afraid that my mother would worry, so I made my own decision. Silver is a small matter, but I violated my father's order, and I feel deeply guilty."
Fu Guiyun also knew that the princess was not really blaming him just now, but he still explained what she said.
Ye Zhilan was well aware of the prince's intention, which was to use this matter to win the daughter-in-law's position in his son's heart.
But she never expected that her daughter-in-law would be so honest.
"You are obviously the one who has suffered the most injustice, but you have no choice but to be dragged down along with that evil creature."
Thinking of the rebuke he had just given her in the class, Ye Zhilan felt even more guilty.
"Madam Jiang, go find the box of Tuo Nan pearls that the late emperor gave me a few years ago."
Ye Zhilan held her hand tightly and said with a smile: "When your father was crowned king, the late emperor gave your mother a box of southern pearls to inlay with a seven-pearl crown. Your mother thought the crown was too heavy, so she kept this box of southern pearls. Now you can use it to decorate your jewelry."
The Tuo Nan Pearl can be regarded as the best among the South Pearls. Since the founding of the Great Kang Kingdom, it has always been incompatible with various forces in the South Kingdom. This item has become a rare item with a price but no market.
When Fu Guiyun was the empress dowager, she had wanted to find some fine South Pearls to make a new phoenix crown, but she had never fulfilled her long-cherished wish. Unexpectedly, today she would be able to satisfy her vanity from her previous life from her mother-in-law.
Looking at the box of beads that Nanny Jiang handed over carefully, each bead was plump, smooth, delicate and round, and the golden color made people feel delighted.
"Keep it well."
Fearing that she would dress too plainly as usual, Ye Zhilan patted her shoulder and warned her, "You are the prince's consort of the palace, don't always think about saving money for your father and mother."
"Thank you, concubine."
Fu Guiyun didn't feel that he had suffered much injustice, it was just three months' salary.
Even if the thirty thousand taels of silver were really given to Lu Linchu, it would be nothing.
Her mother-in-law's behavior made her feel guilty.
Today, Ye Zhilan finally realized that the evildoer was not a heartless person and he still had some sympathy for his daughter-in-law.
It is said that time reveals a person's true character. She is not worried that this bastard will not be moved by the generosity and kindness of her daughter-in-law.
Thinking of this, Ye Zhilan said in a gentle voice: "Chu'er should have realized the evil of human nature this time. Yun'er, please be more patient with him. Mother believes that sooner or later he will only keep you in his heart."
"Ah."
Fu Guiyun pursed his lips and smiled lightly, responded softly, and chatted with the princess for a while before leading the servants back to Chuxian Palace.
As luck would have it, the news of the Xuancheng incident also reached the imperial palace.
When Emperor Hui found out, he was both angry and amused.
"Lu Linchu is a hopeless dandy. He actually went to such great lengths for a lowly girl."
In the imperial study, Emperor Hui paced slowly: "Fortunately, I didn't marry my sister to him, otherwise, who knows how much of a joke it would have caused."
Mo sighed: "It's just a pity for the young lady of the Fu family."
"Who says it isn't?"
The old eunuch Hu An said in detail: "Your Majesty, you don't know. I heard that Master Lu not only spent a fortune on Miss Yunling, but also planned to hold a fireworks show. If it weren't for the order of Prince Liyang to cut off Master Lu's salary, Xuancheng would have been very lively last night. But Miss Fu was so stupid that she took her dowry to pay Master Lu's romantic debt."
"She is indeed a silly woman."
Emperor Hui smiled speechlessly and said, "The two girls of the Fu family are just like their father, they are submissive and obedient. I heard that Miss Fu II took the initiative to ask to go to the Earl of Changping to observe chastity. If Minister Fu had not agreed, I would have been a little embarrassed."
After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand without any doubt: "Forget it, forget it, they are all useless. You go to the Northern Palace of Liyang King to spread the will on my behalf, and allow Prince Lu to return south with his family at the end of the year, so that old man Lu Chen will not think that I have some ulterior motive by keeping his stupid son in the capital."
"Prince Liyang is a fierce tiger. Your Majesty, do you really want to let him go?"
Juan felt something was wrong: "Your Majesty, would you please reconsider this?"
"Now that the northern border is unstable, I want this old man to let go and roar in the south."
At this time, Emperor Hui no longer took the Liyang Palace seriously.
No matter how capable Lu Chen is, once his foolish son inherits the throne, the entire Jiangzuo will be defeated by him sooner or later.
But when he thought of Lu Linchu, he seemed to have thought of something.
"That idiot from the Lu family just wants to watch a fireworks display. I'll give it to him. There's no need to go to Xuancheng, which is a hundred miles away. I can just hold a grand fireworks display for him in Yundu City."
Glancing at Hu An with a sinister look, Emperor Hui asked meaningfully, "Do you think Lu Linchu will bring his legitimate wife to the banquet, or the slave girl in the mansion?"
Juan guessed that the emperor wanted Prince Lu to make a fool of himself before leaving Beijing, and he couldn't help but smile.
"I heard that Princess Liyang was seriously ill. When the Crown Princess returned home a while ago, she asked Miss Yunling to stop the carriage in the street. When the old princess found out, she was so angry that she bled."
After a moment of thought, he smiled even more wantonly: "If Prince Lu does something unorthodox in front of His Majesty and all the nobles in the court, the old princess will probably be so angry that she will die."
"That's just right."
Emperor Hui came up with a plan: "Ye Zhilan occupies a pivotal position in the Ye family. Without Ye Zhilan, how long can the alliance between the Ye and Lu families last?"
The two smiled at each other, and Emperor Hui immediately issued an order: "Pass the order to hold a grand spring banquet by the Huajiang Lake in three days, both to pray for the soldiers in the southern expedition and to congratulate the prince and princess of Liyang on their wedding."
Hu An immediately went to the Liyang Palace to convey the imperial edict, and Ye Zhilan and Fu Guiyun received it.
Upon learning that the emperor had allowed the royal family to return south before the New Year, Fu Guiyun was no less happy than her mother-in-law.
She knew that this matter was also inseparable from the disturbance caused by Lu Linchu in Xuancheng.
Although the process was not what he wanted, the result was always good. After sending his mother-in-law back to the palace to rest, he immediately sent Cheng Kui to Yurongju to inform him of the emperor's edict.
The court physician had just finished taking the young master's pulse and was busy checking Lu Linchu's cane injuries.
When Cheng Kui came to convey the imperial edict, Yun Ling and the court physician were applying medicine to Lu Linchu's sores.
Upon hearing this great news, Lu Linchu sat up excitedly.
"Great, we can finally go back to Liyang."
Thinking of the depression he had experienced in Beijing, Lu Linchu happily hugged Yun Ling in his arms.
"I said that His Majesty values the prince the most."
Yun Ling was naturally happy to be able to return to Liyang, but what made her even happier was the second imperial edict.
"His Majesty knows that we were wronged in Xuancheng, and he specially issued an order to make amends, and even specially arranged a fireworks show for me. His Majesty is really thoughtful."
She grabbed Lu Linchu's arm complacently and asked thoughtfully, "Linchu, what clothes do you think I should wear to look good?"
