Chapter 81 Fury
Early this morning, for the first time ever, the main gate of the Ninth Prince's Mansion was opened.
The King of Qi's health improved and he began to deal with various affairs of his fiefdom. Officials from Sucheng and the surrounding areas heard the news and there was an endless stream of carriages coming to the prince's mansion.
Lu Yunyang gave Jiang Jiu a holiday and did not ask her to serve him. Jiang Jiu finally had some free time to stroll around the yard and catch butterflies.
The sun was shining brightly. Jiang Jiu was admiring the exquisite garden landscape in the Ninth Prince's Mansion when Mudan hurried over.
"Hurry, go watch the fun! The prince and the princess are arguing."
When Jiang Jiu arrived at the prince's courtyard, it was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside.
Jiang Jiu glanced at the maids and guards in the mansion and smiled speechlessly: "Don't you have anything to do? Uncle Gui, the housekeeper, has caught you and is going to punish you again."
The maids pointed ahead, and Jiang Jiu looked carefully, not knowing what to say.
Uncle Gui, the housekeeper of the palace, was actually standing at the forefront of the crowd eating melons.
The King of Qi had a dark face and stopped the sedan chair of Princess Qiyang.
"Qi Yang, where have you been these past three days? Do you know that I haven't had a good night's sleep for three days and three nights because of you? If something happens to you, how will I explain it to my aunt?"
Princess Qiyang was lying on the sedan chair, unable to get out, clutching her cloak tightly with a guilty conscience.
"Cousin, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired and want to rest."
As everyone knows, Princess Qiyang might be the fiancée of King Qi. This trip to Sucheng, although she said she was visiting King Qi, actually she also wanted to cultivate feelings for him.
One is the daughter of the eldest princess, and the other is the emperor's younger brother. They are cousins and very close relatives.
However, the King of Qi was not someone who could be easily fooled.
"You don't even have the basic etiquette to meet this king? Get off here!"
Princess Qiyang stayed on Prince Yiyun's boat for three days and three nights. As everyone knows, King Qi does not care about his face.
Probably knowing that they had gone too far, the sedan chair of Princess Qiyang landed on the ground. Two strong maids pushed the maid aside, went in, and helped her out.
I have to say, she looked like a destroyed flower at this moment.
His hair was disheveled, he was swaying, his eyes were blurry, and there was an abnormal blush on his face.
"cousin……"
Anyone who has experience in human affairs can tell what's going on with her at a glance?
Jiang Jiu was a virgin, but he still felt something was wrong when looking at her.
"Has she been drugged?"
Mudan blushed and whispered to her, "The incense on Master Yiyun's flower boat has aphrodisiac ingredients, just like the ones in Hua Man Lou."
Jiang Jiu opened her mouth in surprise and exclaimed, "Ah, so she stayed here for three days. Did someone do that to her?"
Mudan's face turned even redder: "Then it's no wonder that the prince is angry. His head has turned into green grass."
But it is really unbelievable that the King of Qi tried Princess Qiyang in front of so many people for such a private matter. He must have been hiding something.
When the King of Qi saw Princess Qiyang's appearance, he was so angry that his face turned blue.
"Come here, bring that man up to me..."
Princess Qiyang leaned on the nanny, drowsy.
At this time, a young man in white clothes with disheveled hair was seen being pressed up by the guards of King Qi.
"I asked you to go out for fun, and you said you were going to worship Guanyin... but it turns out you were going with him... Qi Yang, Qi Yang, you really don't take me seriously."
As he spoke, the King of Qi drew out a sword and stabbed the young man in white.
Then Princess Qiyang yelled, "No..."
The young man in white was pierced through the chest by the King of Qi's sword and fell to the ground.
Princess Qiyang also fainted with a scream because of the death of the young man in white.
The King of Qi assassinated the young man in white, and everyone exclaimed, "Young Master Yiyun is dead?"
"What a pity! Such a handsome young man..."
"There's nothing we can do. Who made him so shameless as to hook up with Princess Qiyang?"
"She's the princess. How can Master Yiyun resist her orders?"
Everyone felt sorry for Master Yiyun.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Princess Qiyang suddenly woke up and angrily accused King Qi.
"You, you actually killed him. This princess only has feelings for him, and you..."
Princess Qiyang was too spoiled and actually drew the sword of the guard next to her and was about to stab the King of Qi.
Fortunately, the guards around him reacted quickly and took the sword for the King of Qi.
Princess Qiyang stamped her feet in anger: "Zhao Zhuoxi, return Master Yiyun to me..."
Seeing the young man in white being dragged away like a dead dog, Princess Qiyang was extremely anxious. The King of Qi waved his hand and the guards knocked her unconscious and put her back in the sedan chair.
A storm slowly calmed down.
But Jiang Jiu knew that another disturbance would soon reach the capital.
This dynasty was actually quite open.
It was only at this time that Jiang Jiu realized that women could not only do business, but also establish their own household, and more importantly, have lovers.
The eldest princess has several male lovers around her.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Princess Qiyang was attracted by beauty.
The problem is that she had done it before marriage, which meant she was unfaithful to the King of Qi. Moreover, there were rumors that the King of Qi was in poor health. Even if Qi Yang couldn't hold back, he would at least have to wait until she and the King of Qi got married.
Her behavior directly determined that the King of Qi was unfit.
It is the most humiliating thing for a man to be despised by a woman.
Lu Yunyang took advantage of Princess Qiyang's lust and planned this farce. Not only did he successfully cancel the marriage, it also indirectly reflected that his health was indeed not good and even Princess Qiyang looked down on him.
However, the matter is not over yet, and Qi Yang’s bullying of Jiang Jiu has not stopped.
Two days later, Princess Qiyang disappeared, and her personal maid also disappeared. The guards she brought with her said that she might have gone to find the body of Master Yiyun and give him a grand burial.
The King of Qi immediately sent people to look for him, but when they found him, Qi Yang was not only covered in wounds, but his lower body was also badly damaged.
Princess Qiyang's personal bodyguard died as an apology.
It turned out that he found Princess Qiyang among the beggars in the dilapidated temple.
The Qiyang County Lord ran away, and the beggars didn't know that she was a high-ranking princess, so they touched her all over and insulted her to their heart's content. Even her personal maid was insulted to death.
When the guards arrived, they could only rescue the dying Qi Yang.
The guards were so angry that they killed all the beggars.
The King of Qi said nothing but to block the news and send someone to treat Qi Yang.
Such explosive news spread to the capital again like a gust of wind.
So the news spread that Princess Qiyang was bewitched by a young waiter and fell out with the King of Qi, who angrily killed the young waiter. The princess was so obsessed with finding the body to bury it but mistakenly entered a wasteland and was insulted by a beggar.
The King of Qi was so angry that he fell seriously ill again.
Wave after wave of news reached the capital.
At this point, Jiang Jiu's revenge was achieved, and the marriage between King Qi and Princess Qiyang was also called off.
Princess Qiyang was recuperating in Prince Qi's mansion, and the sky in Sucheng was clear again.
However, the treasure that County Lord Qiyang is looking for has not been found yet.
In the evening of that day, Jiang Jiu was diligently embroidering a sachet in the yard when Nanny Qian came back from outside.
"Miss, I have asked the old shopkeepers. They do have a treasure that they used only once. It is said to be extremely powerful. It seems to be buried in the flower bed in the old yard."
