Yang Yunzheng smiled slightly . She didn’t seem to feel that s.h.i.+ Huiru was reckless in asking . She calmly replied: “My brother is at home . He might come over soon . ”
It was just a reply that was not certain, but the ladies had already made the faces of joy . They pulled Yang Yunzheng to sit with them and started chatting .
“Is it true that the day before yesterday, the prince used a few splashes of ink to paint the House of the Banished Immortal, and painted a three-foot-long beautiful landscape in less than an hour?”
“I heard that someone is going to buy this painting for a thousand taels of gold!”
“Doesn’t the prince refuse to sell? The painting could be in the house . Can we take a look?”
Yang Yunzheng smiled slightly: “My brother paints in the street, and my father said he was messing around and he has already been punished . ”
After saying this, s.h.i.+ Huiru looked astonished: “This is a good opportunity to make the prince famous . Why should Lord Hou punish him?”
Yang Yunzheng said: “Father said that he is too proud of his talents . There is no such thing as a modest gentleman . ”
s.h.i.+ Huiru was obviously very dissatisfied with the punishment of the Changting Hou prince: “What do mean he’s too proud? The prince is so good at painting, are these amazing geniuses going to be buried?”
Everyone started discussing immediately, obviously agreeing with s.h.i.+ Huiru’s statement .
When Yu Linglong heard what these boudoir daughters said, she felt very bored, so she turned around to admire the peony flowers next to her .
It happened that a maid came to pour tea, and when Yu Linglong turned around, the teacup in that maid’s hand was not held firmly, and it was directly knocked on Yu Linglong’s lap!
“Ouch!” she exclaimed . The maid was so scared that she threw herself onto her knees, “Miss, forgive me, I didn’t mean it!”
The movement here was not small, and even Yang Yunzheng looked over .
Yu Linglong stood up and dusted the remaining tea leaves off her body . The maid who was kneeling on the ground came back to her senses, tidying up her clothes for Yu Linglong in a panic while begging for mercy .
Fortunately, the clothes of the ancients were thick, otherwise, the hot tea would be really uncomfortable .
Yu Linglong’s gaze fell on the maid’s cuffs, and she paused for a moment, but in a flash, she revealed a wistful smile .
The maid didn’t notice Yu Linglong’s eyes . She looked in the direction of Yang Yunzheng with horror . She repeatedly kowtowed to Yu Linglong: “Miss, forgive me! Miss, forgive me!”
If you do something wrong on such an occasion, unfortunately, this maid will be punished, right?
Sure enough, Yang Yunzheng frowned in that direction, turned her head, and said a few words to the maid behind her . The maid walked over and apologized to Yu Linglong: “This maid of our house has no rules . Please forgive her . ”
She said sharply to the maid who was kneeling on the ground: “What is your name!?”
The maid was trembling with fright: “I’m called Bai Zhi . ”
The maid yelled coldly: “Bai Zhi? The Third Lady has an order to revoke your three-month pay, and you will immediately go down and get twenty lashes!”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse . com]
Bai Zhi burst into tears but did not dare to argue . She kowtowed to Yang Yunzheng from a distance, and then went down to receive the punishment .
“Hold on!” Yu Linglong, who had been silent for a long time, stopped Bai Zhi . She smiled at the maid on her side, her pretty face suddenly radiant, “She didn’t mean it . I don’t blame her . It’s better to let your lady take back her fate, okay?”
Everyone’s complicated eyes were projected immediately . It was just an irrelevant little maid . Why did the Fourth Lady Yu want to help her?
Yu Linglong didn’t mean to explain . Although she faced the maid who was speaking, she looked at Yang Yunzheng not far away, as if she was waiting for her decision .
Yang Yunzheng paused and showed Yu Linglong a gentle smile: “Since Fourth Lady Yu doesn’t blame her, let’s drop it . ”
Obviously, s.h.i.+ Huiru beside her had already told Yang Yunzheng of Yu Linglong’s ident.i.ty .
