Chapter 241: Chapter 243 Frightened
At this moment, Hei Yao came into the hall carrying a person. It was Lu Waner of the Lu family, the daughter of the minister of personnel.
Lu Waner was disheveled and her face was bruised and purple. She looked absolutely terrible.
All the young ladies there were frightened by what they witnessed. However, when they thought of Xiao Jiuyuan’s scary presence, they quickly covered their mouths to shut themselves up.
Hei Yao brought Lu Waner over and asked Xiao Jiuyuan, “My Lord, how should I deal with her?”
“Send her to her family and tell Lord Lu to discipline his daughter well. If she dares to be so stupid and ignorant next time, she will be killed.”
His cruel and sinister warning made many women there feel terrified.
After nodding, Hei Yao went out with Lu Waner.
In the courtyard, no one was in the mood to play games anymore. Chiang Yuxi regretted hosting the game given how things had turned out. She now realised that she shouldn’t have been so petty.
Thinking about this, Chiang Yuxi gave Yun Qianxue a very mean glare.?‘It’s all because of this woman! If not for her bad idea, things wouldn’t have turned out like this.’
Chiang Yuxi stood up and wanted to lighten up the situation. However, before she could speak two servant girls came into the courtyard and said, “Young Miss, the old madam has asked you to take all the ladies to Glory Crane Hall for a chat. The empress has come to see all the ladies.”
Chiang Yuxi was relieved and she quickly looked at Xiao Tianyu and Xiao Jiuyuan.
“Cousin, Your Highness Li Prince, the banquet will begin soon. I will take the ladies to meet the empress.”
Xiao Tianyu said, “Since the empress has arrived, we should go see her as well. Let’s go there together.”
......
Xiao Jiuyuan nodded and said, “Yes, I should also go and greet her too.”
After taking a few steps, Xiao Jiuyuan noticed Yun Qianyu wasn’t keeping up with him. Turning around, Xiao Jiuyuan looked back at her and asked, “Do you have some problem walking? Or do you not want to greet the empress?”
Yun Qianyu’s face darkened, unable to understand what her choice had to do with Xiao Jiuyuan.
However, seeing that everyone was looking at them, Yun Qianyu felt too lazy to say anything more to him, lest they became the center of attention again.
Thinking about that, Yun Qianyu said nothing and just followed Xiao Jiuyuan out of the courtyard. With the support of Little Bell, Hua Mei also went out.
All of the women breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed them out. No one dared to create any more trouble.
‘His Highness Li Prince is really terrifying! Who knows what will happen later on?’
However, everyone had become really afraid of Yun Qianyu. They all knew that they should never ever provoke Yun Qianyu, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble for themselves.
Although they saw that Xiao Jiuyuan had protected Yun Qianyu, most people didn’t think that Xiao Jiuyuan was treating Yun Qianyu any differently. They felt that Xiao Jiuyuan only protected Yun Qianyu because of the title she bore.
