Chapter 197 Watching the Fun
"What are you doing? How dare you! I am the Shangshu's wife. You are trespassing and will be arrested!"
The leader of the Imperial Guards looked at the crazy woman in front of him impatiently and unfolded the imperial edict in his hand.
"You woman, I originally wanted to go to the palace to announce the decree, just to give you face, but you were so ignorant that you wanted to stop me. Don't blame me for being unkind!"
He just waved his hand, and the imperial guards behind him neatly surrounded the Shangshu Mansion, and not a single fly inside the mansion could escape!
Being surrounded by so many imperial guards, Li had never seen such a scene before, and immediately became even more panicked. Just as she was thinking about whether to have someone close the gate, she heard the leader shout angrily:
"The Emperor has issued an order, the Shangshu Mansion is accepting it!"
The doorman knelt down instantly, his trembling legs showing his inner fear, and it was also because of this shout that Li was so scared that he knelt on the ground with a thud!
Feeling the sharp pain in his knee, Li finally came to his senses, but it was too late now.
"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:
The criminal Yu Huaiyi intended to assassinate the emperor. His crime is unforgivable. I now order the Imperial Guards to search his house and throw him, regardless of gender, into the prison to await punishment. Anyone who resists will be executed on the spot!"
Intent on assassinating the emperor? How is that possible!
"Madam Shangshu, it's better not to resist!"
The leader looked at the man slumped on the ground meaningfully and sneered in his heart.
Still want to resist? Today, not even a fly can escape!
"Royal Guards, listen up. Don't let a single fly go in this palace. Do you understand?"
"Yes!"
Everyone responded collectively, and when they saw their leader wave his hand, they all rushed inside.
The people were also shocked by this incident and looked at the scene in front of the Shangshu Mansion in disbelief.
"Minister Yu actually intended to assassinate the emperor?"
"Oh my God, is it true?"
Someone reached out and pushed the person who was speaking, shouting, "How could it be fake? Look, the imperial edict has been issued, it must be true!"
These words also woke Li up. She ignored the pain in her knees, got up and rushed into the mansion.
"No, no, this is not true. The master respects the emperor the most. How could he possibly do something like assassination? There must be a misunderstanding here, there must be!"
Yu Tingwan looked at those people who had already entered the Shangshu Mansion, and turned to look at Jiang Wanyun.
"Mom, do you want to go in and take a look?"
After asking, he signaled An San, who was driving the carriage outside, to drive the carriage directly into the Shangshu Mansion.
An San heard the order and did as he was told, but was stopped at the door.
"What are you doing? Can't you see we are ransacking your house? Are you looking for death?"
A royal guard didn't even see the carriage clearly and started shouting, completely ignoring the suggestive looks from his colleagues around him.
boom!
"Ahhh!!"
A scream was heard, and the shouting Imperial Guard was kicked out by An San.
An San snorted coldly and said sternly: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, you dare to stop the princess' carriage!"
When the royal guards saw the sign of "Prince Chen's Palace" on the carriage, they all knelt down and apologized.
"Please forgive me, Princess."
An San glanced at them with disdain and drove his carriage into the Shangshu Mansion in a swaggering manner.
"Who are you and who let you in?"
The Imperial Guards who were watching the house search and confiscation in the mansion were puzzled when they saw someone else coming in. Shouldn't they stay away at this time?
When he saw the carriage logo clearly, he was shocked at first, and then became more confused.
Prince Chen? Why is he here?
Not daring to think any further, the chief hurried forward to salute.
"I didn't know it was Prince Chen who came. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Your Excellency, thank you for your courtesy. The prince is not here today. I am just bored and came to see what is going on. Is it convenient for you, Your Excellency?"
A woman's voice was heard from the carriage, and then the leader saw two women getting out of the carriage out of the corner of his eye, and he looked up.
Aren’t these the mother and daughter who have caused quite a stir in Beijing recently?
The leader didn't dare to stare at him any longer, so he lowered his head again and said respectfully:
"What are you talking about, Princess? It is an honor for them to have you here. Of course it is convenient."
Wouldn't it be inconvenient?
Who is Prince Chen? Even the Emperor has to respect him. How could a mere commander of the Imperial Guards dare to say no?
"That's good."
Yu Tingwan looked at the busy Imperial Guards and smiled at the leader.
"You are busy, we won't disturb you, sir. We will just sit here and watch for a while."
The chief's mouth twitched slightly, he bowed and continued to do his own thing.
Everyone in the capital knew about the feud between these two and the Shangshu Mansion, and he knew exactly why they came here at this moment.
We are just here to watch the fun, not to stop him from doing his job.
After all, he couldn't afford to offend either Prince Chen's Mansion or the Jiang family.
After the Imperial Guards were busy, Yu Tingwan and Jiang Wanyun moved two chairs and sat in the yard to watch them search the house, making comments from time to time.
"My dear, there are many good things in that lady's yard. I saw quite a few when I was here before!"
Although now they have basically been looted by her!
"My lord, you don't know that this Lord Yu is the best at hiding things. You have to look carefully in his territory!"
As a result, Yu Tingwan never expected that the Imperial Guards actually looted a lot of things from him.
Looking at what they found, Yu Tingwan felt extremely distressed.
Or maybe I don’t know how to search. Look, these were originally hers!
This trip was not in vain. At least she learned a lot from watching these royal guards search the mansion.
It turns out that silver can be hidden in these places!
It turns out that the seemingly inconspicuous vase contains so many jewels when it is smashed open!
Learned, learned!
Yu Tingwan, who was watching with great interest, heard loud shouts and even laughter coming from the other side.
So I looked over curiously.
I saw a disheveled woman running in front, followed by Li, who was panting.
"Hahaha, mine, these are all mine, I won't give them to you if I don't give them to you!"
"Lin'er, come here quickly, come to your mother!"
The imperial guards standing by felt sad when they saw that the most talented lady in the capital had turned into a fool, but they did not feel the slightest bit of sympathy for her.
He really couldn't feel any sympathy for Yu Tinglin because of the way she was!
"You lunatic, you dare to steal things, give it to me!"
Another imperial guard chased after her, snatched the jewelry from Yu Tinglin's hand, and was about to leave when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm!
"Ahh! You crazy, bitch!"
With a 'bang', Yu Tinglin was pushed to the ground. Feeling the pain, she immediately started crying and making a fuss!
