Chapter 754: Revenge must be taken, and death cannot be easy
"A big show? Hmm... Your Highness guessed right." Yun Mujiu's eyes sparkled with cunningness. "I am indeed looking forward to a big show, Your Highness, you understand me."
While the two were chatting and laughing, Wei Song came towards Huayang Courtyard with big strides.
Housekeeper Zeng, who was not far away, stopped Wei Song and said, "General Wei, what's the important matter? The prince is discussing matters with the princess."
Wei Song replied, "Butler Zeng, I have just heard a piece of news and I want to come to the prince to report it. If the prince is not convenient now, I will come later." Wei Bai kindly reminded him, "If it is not a big deal, do not rashly disturb the prince and the princess. Otherwise, the prince will not let you down."
Butler Zeng was thinking about whether to let Wei Song go over. From Wei Song's tone, he didn't seem very anxious, so it shouldn't be an urgent matter.
"Let Wei Song come over." Ye Xiaohan's cold voice came over.
Ye Xiaohan had strong internal strength and could hear the conversation between Wei Song and Butler Zeng from afar.
Wei Song smiled slightly, walked over, and looked a little serious.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that the princess has been keeping Wu Mingwei in the woodshed ever since she returned to her residence. She did not let her out the entire day yesterday."
Ye Xiaohan looked indifferent and said nothing.
Wei Song continued to report: "Wu Mingwei was seriously injured and did not receive good care in the Princess's residence. This morning, after being treated by the palace doctor at the Princess's residence, one of her eyes was found to be blind and one of her arms was disabled."
Yun Mujiu was still a little surprised, but it was only for a moment. Wu Mingwei had done everything she could to get to where she was today.
Wei Song's tone was indifferent, as if he was talking about an insignificant person. He glanced at Yun Mujiu, not sure whether to say the next word.
"Anything else?" Ye Xiaohan noticed Wei Song's hesitation. "Speak."
"Your Highness, even though Wu Mingwei had a bad experience in the Princess's residence, she still couldn't forget the Princess...most of the dirty words she said were directed at the Princess." Wei Song's expression was subtle, and he added: "Of course, she also blamed Princess Gaoyang, Miss Yun Er, and Yao Leyi."
From what Wei Song said, Yun Mujiu guessed that Wu Mingwei hated her the most, and the words she used to curse her were probably even more vicious and unpleasant.
Yun Mujiu smiled faintly: "It's okay, just a few words, I don't care."
Looking at Wei Song, he said, "Although it is often said that 'a kind word can warm you through the winter, but an evil word can hurt you through the summer.' But I have a broad mind, and I will not get angry no matter what others say about me."
It won't be long before she forces those people to step down completely.
"The princess has an open-minded attitude." Wei Song breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his report would make the princess angry, which would not only make the princess unhappy, but also make the prince unhappy.
Yun Mujiu stood up, walked to Butler Zeng, and asked, "Butler Zeng, is there any news coming out of the Princess's mansion?"
"My princess, not yet. This morning, several servants in the Princess's residence went out to purchase wedding supplies just like yesterday. Other than that, there has been no further movement."
"Well. It seems that Princess Gaoyang has not yet decided on the date for Wu Mingwei's wedding." Yun Mujiu said lightly.
Housekeeper Zeng glanced at Wei Song carefully, lowered his voice and asked Yun Mujiu, "Princess, is it possible that something happened to Miss Wu's fiancé? Is that why Princess Gaoyang has been postponing the wedding banquet?"
Yun Mujiu was slightly startled, and quickly replied: "No. Wang Gou committed a crime, but he was not sentenced to death. So many people were present at the tea party that day and heard the emperor read out the punishment. Even if Princess Gaoyang wanted to kill Wang Gou, she would not choose the recent time. She wants to deal with those she hates in a low-key manner and will only find an opportunity to kill them later."
When Wei Song heard the name "Wu Mingwei" and the special word "fiancé", his wheat-colored face remained expressionless. He and Wu Mingwei were not on the same path, so he didn't need to worry about whether he and Wu Mingwei had a future together.
Ye Xiaohan sat on the stone chair and glanced at Wei Song nonchalantly. Wei Song's reaction was flat, and he knew what Wei Song was thinking. As long as Wei Song knew how to distinguish right from wrong, he would always keep Wei Song, his subordinate for many years, by his side. If it weren't for their many years of friendship, he would have gotten rid of Wei Song long ago based on the fact that Wei Song had done bad things several times because of personal feelings.
Yun Mujiu turned his head and looked at Ye Xiaohan, "My Lord, there has been no news about Wang Gou in the past few days. Nothing big should have happened, right?"
Ye Xiaohan stood up, walked to Yun Mujiu's side, and faced Wei Song, but he said to Yun Mujiu: "Nothing serious happened, everything is normal."
He turned his head to look at Wei Song and said in a cold voice: "Wei Bai has sent someone to pass a message to this king. Wang Gou was caned at the last banquet and lost half of his life. He has been treated harshly in the Princess's residence recently. Now he is only hanging on with a few breaths."
"Thank you, Your Highness, for informing me." Wei Song nodded, indicating that he understood.
A hint of emotion flashed across the eyes of the housekeeper Zeng. Wang Gou was not dead, which meant that the marriage between Wang Gou and Wu Mingwei still existed in substance. Wang Gou was still Wu Mingwei's fiancé, and the two of them still had to perform their marriage.
"So that's how it is. He really can't die so quickly." Yun Mujiu was not at all surprised that Wang Gou would end up like this. She did not ask for Wang Gou to be executed directly that day because she didn't want Wang Gou to get away with it and die directly.
Wang Gou committed many evil deeds under Princess Gaoyang. Not only did he torture the maids in the Princess's mansion to death, but he also relied on the background of the Princess's mansion to oppress the people and harm innocent women.
No matter whether she was avenging herself for the day when she was almost framed by Wang Gou, or avenging those innocent women who died tragically, Wang Gou could not die easily!
After learning about the situation in Princess Gaoyang's mansion, the scene fell silent for a moment.
Yun Mujiu instructed Butler Zeng: "If Gaoyang Mansion sends an invitation, we don't have to refuse it."
She could decline the invitations normally, but she would not refuse this invitation. Because it was an invitation to Wu Mingwei's wedding, and she couldn't miss it. Wu Mingwei wanted to harm her with such viciousness that she was not a normal person. She was just giving Wu Mingwei a marriage.
"I understand." Butler Zeng smiled. The princess has a really good personality, and she will take revenge if she has any. The princess's personality is really a perfect match for the prince! They are indeed a perfect couple!
Afterwards, Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu went to the flower hall for lunch.
A group of Frost Shadow Guards were also on their way back to the Night King's Palace. Some of them came back from Beihan, while others came back from the vicinity of Duti Valley.
Eventually, the two groups met up in the northwest of Zhongyue, first riding horses and traveling by land, then taking a boat and traveling by water, and finally riding horses and traveling by land again, all the way back to the capital...
