The invalid Chu Liuyue from the Chu family had gone crazy!
Everyone in the whole of Imperial City was discussing this incident overnight.
“My cousin’s third uncle works at the Chu family; he personally witnessed the people from Zhen Bao Pavilion respectfully delivering half a year’s worth of herbs. Also, they clearly said that it was for Chu Liuyue! Don’t you think this is creepy?”
“It can’t be Everyone knows that Chu Liuyue is naturally an invalid. How can she be related to Zhen Bao Pavilion? It should be worth quite a bit of money for Zhen Bao Pavilion to give half a year’s worth of herbs, right? Can she even afford it?”
“That’s why I said that she went crazy! Zhen Bao Pavilion never makes a losing deal. Where do you think she got her money from? Could it be from the Crown Prince?”
“Hah! The Crown Prince has never mentioned Chu Liuyue in so many years. Why would he do such a thing? He definitely wasn’t the one who gave Chu Liuyue the money. She even bought herbs Does she really think she can transform herself from an invalid to a talent just with all those herbs?”
“Hahaha!”
Everyone in Imperial City was filled with sarcasm and was waiting to see Chu Liuyue’s farce.
In the Crown Prince’s mansion
In the study, a man wearing a dark purple robe was reading the documents on the table. He looked like he was in his early twenties; his features were sharp, and he was very handsome. His every move and action further brought out his distinguished aura.
This person was none other than Country Yao Chen’s respected Crown PrinceRong Jin.
“Prince, there seems to be a problem with the Chu family” The Crown Prince’s personal bodyguardSong Yuancarefully spoke.
Rong Jin looked up. “What can happen to the Chu family? Could it be Minmin” Rong Jin realized something upon seeing Song Yuan’s strange expression and squinted his eyes. “Say it. What exactly happened?”
Song Yuan hurriedly reported the happenings between Chu Liuyue and Zhen Bao Pavilion to him in detail.
“I-I have no idea where Big Chu Missy got all those silver taels from to afford so many herbs from Zhen Bao Pavilion.”
All the herbs were contained in jade boxes and delivered over, so outsiders would not even know their contents. Even so, one could just randomly guess and know that the items inside would add up to an astronomical figure.
Rong Jin knitted his brows and said in a frustrated tone, “What the heck is she doing?”
If it was not for that marriage agreement, why would he even care about that invalid? All these years, Chu Liuyue had not only been the Chu family’s humiliation, but she was also a stain in his life that he could not get rid of. He felt disgusted once he thought about it.
Uncertain, Song Yuan said, “Prince, although Chu Ning has lost favor in recent years, he was once pretty powerful. It’s not impossible for him to have some savings. The point is, why would they buy so many herbs? Perhaps”
“Hmph, she’s just trying to solve her natural invalidity!”
There was still a month left until the agreed engagement period on that marriage agreement. Was she still hallucinating and thinking of climbing her way up the ladder?
“Ridiculous! In the entire Country Yao Chen, nobody could solve the problem of a lacking Yuan meridian. If they really had a solution, she would not have ended up in this state. She’s not worth mentioning. This is just a farce. The palace will break off the marriage agreement with her sooner or later. In the meantime, the more important thing is is Rong Xiu coming back?”
Once Rong Xiu was mentioned, Song Yuan’s expression changed, and he said softly, “Yes. They’ll be reaching the Imperial City today. According to what I found out, Seventh Prince only brought two entourages with him, and they’re coming back in simplicity.”
Rong Jin chuckled. “At least he knows his place.”
As Rong Xiu was naturally weak, he was different from the other princes. He was often taken to Mingyue Tianshan, which was miles away, to nurse himself back to health. He had only come back twice in so many years.
It had already been three years since he had come back last time.
Most of the people did not even take the Seventh Prince seriously; some didn’t even remember his existence, but not Rong Jin, the Crown Prince. He was very alert about Rong Xiu’s current return and had even sent people to follow him in secret.
“Tell the subordinates to be more alert. If there’s anything amiss, immediately report it to me!”
