Chapter 233 You Still Know Li Mo
Chapter 233 You Still Know Li Mo
"If Miss Lu has such a request, Lord Lu cannot make any big mistakes."
She said, "Otherwise, if one person is convicted, the whole family will be implicated. This is inevitable."
She understood Ye Xinran's thoughts.
But she had to remind Ye Xinran that it was actually very difficult for her to have the best of both worlds.
"I understand."
Ye Xinran said.
The principle of aristocratic families is that everyone prospers together and suffers together.
She had thought about this question before.
She asked: "As long as the Marquis does not make any mistakes, it will not implicate me and my mother?
If it was just the old lady who attempted to murder the prince of Rui, how would the emperor punish her?"
“Parents are guilty, and children should bear the responsibility for their parents.
But if Lord Lu insists that he knew nothing about this, the emperor will probably just fine him some salary."
Chen Yueting guessed.
"Besides, the victim of this incident was originally the Rui Palace. For my father's sake, the emperor will also ask for my father's opinion when sentencing."
After hearing what Chen Yueting said, Ye Xinran felt relieved.
Chen Yueting ordered the housekeeper, "Keep an eye on that maid, don't let her die. Send her to the Ministry of Justice now and tell them that we have caught the assassin in the Rui Palace."
"Yes!"
The butler agreed.
Over the years, the two have gotten used to it. Chen Yueting makes the decisions, while housekeeper Chen is the one who shows up in public.
Because Prince Rui trained his troops in the Imperial Guards camp all year round, Steward Chen was the one who took the lead in many matters, so people in various government offices in the capital also knew about Steward Chen.
What Butler Chen meant was what Princess Yueting meant, and what Princess Yueting meant was what Prince Rui meant.
"Since the princess has made all the arrangements, I will return home and wait for good news."
Ye Xinran prepared to leave.
She has been out for most of the day, and her mother at home must be waiting anxiously.
But Chen Yueting didn't want him to leave.
"Miss Lu has been busy for so long and hasn't even had a sip of tea. I have asked the servants to prepare some snacks. Please have some before you leave."
"You're welcome, group leader..."
Ye Xinran wanted to refuse, but Chen Yueting said, "Miss Lu, if you go back like this, Dad will blame me for not treating you well."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xinran had no choice but to agree.
"Then excuse me."
The two of them walked through the corridor in the yard and went to the small courtyard where Chen Yueting lived.
There was a wisp of smoke rising from the courtyard; it turned out to be the maids burning incense.
Ye Xinran looked at Chen Yueting's simple and elegant courtyard, which was completely different from the magnificent outside. She couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you decorate the princess' courtyard a little more?"
Chen Yueting didn't say anything and led Ye Xinran into the house.
Fruits and snacks had already been placed in the room.
Chen Yueting asked Ye Xinran to sit down, and then said, "I like quietness, so I specifically asked my father to change this courtyard."
"Oh!"
Ye Xinran nodded in confusion.
Seeing that she didn't understand, Chen Yueting continued, "In fact, father doesn't like those fancy things either, but we have to give enough face to the outside world in Rui Wangfu, so the decorations outside are not exquisite, they just look gorgeous."
Ye Xinran nodded and sighed in her heart: As expected, in the eyes of truly rich people, money is really nothing, and they prefer to pursue elegance.
"By the way, I heard that Madam Lu brought Miss Lu back from Yuntong County."
Chen Yueting took a sip of tea and suddenly asked.
"Ok!"
Ye Xinran nodded.
Chen Yueting hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Miss Lu, have you ever heard of a medical clinic called Yongle Hall?"
Chen Yueting's expression was very calm, as if he was asking about something insignificant.
But Ye Xinran could tell from her tightly clenched fingers that she was actually very nervous.
It seems like there is still some expectation.
Seeing Ye Xinran looking at him without answering immediately, Chen Yueting shook his head and said with a smile, "You must have never heard of it. In Yuntong County, is Shunyitang the most famous one?"
Ye Xinran smiled.
Judging from Chen Yueting's expression, she must have wanted to ask this for a long time.
But out of face, I didn't say anything.
I must stay here today no matter what.
He must have come to find out about Li Mo.
Seeing Ye Xinran looking at him with a smile.
Chen Yueting was a little at a loss.
She reached out and touched her face, and asked, "Miss Lu, why are you looking at me like this? Is there something on my face?"
"No!" Ye Xinran stretched out her voice and said directly without hiding anything: "Not only do I know there is a clinic called Yongle Hall, I also know that the owner of the clinic is called Li Qiao and the boss is called Li Mo. It is said that this boss has a very powerful wife in the capital."
After hearing Ye Xinran say so much, Chen Yueting was unable to react for a moment.
She blinked and looked at Ye Xinran with an incredible expression, "You, how do you know everything?"
Ye Xinran's smile widened, "Not only do I know this, I also know that Li Mo's clinic is going to open a branch in the city, and he plans to invite his wife to attend the opening of the new store!"
"Did he really say that?"
Chen Yueting stood up suddenly.
Realizing her own gaffe, she sat down again and asked, "Miss Lu, do you know Li Mo? Are they familiar with each other? Is his business doing well?"
Chen Yueting had a lot of questions to ask.
For a moment I didn't know where to start.
Ye Xinran waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, Princess. I can tell you slowly what you want to know."
Chen Yueting was having trouble digesting the situation.
She looked at Ye Xinran and felt that the mysterious aura around her was growing heavier.
From the beginning, she was an ordinary daughter of a marquis's mansion, but in just a few days, she seemed to have a close connection with the Rui Palace.
What kind of person is this?
"You knew about my relationship with Li Mo from the beginning, right?"
Chen Yueting asked.
Ye Xinran replied: "I didn't know at first, but later when my mother mentioned your marriage, I guessed it."
"That Li Mo, did he really mention me to you?"
Chen Yueting couldn't believe it.
She insisted on this marriage.
At first, neither Prince Rui nor Li Mo himself agreed.
Li Mo's family was just a branch of the Qin Palace, and their power was weak to begin with. Li Mo's parents were so happy that they could be appreciated by Princess Yueting. They happily exchanged business cards with the palace and settled the marriage.
Li Mo felt that this hurt his self-esteem, and after marriage he did not treat Chen Yueting well just because she was a princess.
Chen Yueting didn't care, and since she often had to run back and forth, she was lukewarm towards Li Mo.
Li Mo was hurt even more because of her attitude.
He thought that Princess Yueting didn't want to marry him just because she liked him.
It's because he has no special skills and is easier to manipulate than others, so I married him.
