Chapter 520 - In the Yu Manor, Consort Yu Visited the Wounded (1/2)
Yu Mingyong’s residence was also called the Yu Manor, which stood far apart facing the Yu Manor on the other side of the street. However, regardless of its gates’ location, the location of the manor, or its scale, it was more magnificent than the other Yu Manor. After all, it was the Emperor’s favorite consort’s home. Even though Yu Mingyong had not made much progress, he was still able to support the manor.
As soon as Consort Yu entered the yard, she heard Yu Mingyong’s screams. “Ouch, ouch, it hurts! d.a.m.n it! Look at the wound carefully before applying the medicine! Are you trying to kill me?”
“Sir, don’t move. The more you move, the more inconvenient it will be for me to apply the medicine.”
“You nasty servant! Get lost! You’re being reasonable?!” There was the sound of objects being pushed over and down, followed by the sound of begging for mercy.
The woman who walked into the yard frowned with displeasure. An older maidservant stepped forward at once and said loudly, “Consort Yu is here.”
There was a momentary silence in the room, followed by Yu Mingyong’s shouts. “Quick, help me to sit up. Come on in, let my sister in.”
Then came a series of noises. After the chaos, Yu Mingyong gave another scream. Now her bother was still messing around. Consort Yu was furious. She held a palace maid’s hand, stepped up the stairs, and walked towards the room. This time, she had specially asked for an edict and secretly returned home to see her only and useless younger brother.
Sometimes, Consort Yu hated the fact that other consorts and beauties all had well-off families that could support them, but she only had a younger brother who would do nothing but get her into trouble.Please go and support our new domain MangaBob.com.Thanks! She had just received news from the Emperor that her younger brother had offended King Xuan. Hearing the news, she broke out in cold sweat.
Now hearing Yu Mingyong’s screams, she was angry and embarra.s.sed. Couldn’t he just behave like a gentleman and do well for her so that when the child in her belly was born, it would have an uncle that it could rely on. If he continued to be like this, it would be no good for her child at all.
Touching her belly, Consort Yu made up her mind to teach her younger brother a lesson this time, saving him from provoking people that he could not afford to offend for the time being. How dare he want to have an affair with Consort Xuan? Even if Mo Xuetong was really divorced, it would not be his turn to marry her. There had never been a daughter-in-law in the royal family who had been divorced alive.
“Greetings, Your Highness.” When the door opened, Yu Feng in a navy blue robe walked out and bowed respectfully to Consort Yu.
Consort Yu did not expect Yu Feng to be here. She cast a light glance at him and nodded slightly as a way of greeting. Then, she walked into the room and Yu Feng followed respectfully behind her.
He was now the overseer of the Office of Imperial Kitchen, without any actual power. His position could not be compared with the a.s.sistant-head of the Office of Imperial Kitchen. Ever since the incident with Auntie Fang, the Yu Manor and the Mo Manor had officially broken off. Then, even Mo Xuemin had gotten into trouble. After that, Qin Yufeng did not live up to his expectations. All these things caused Yu Feng to have no interest in Mo Manor anymore.
As such, he often b.u.t.tered up to Yu Mingyong. When he heard that Yu Mingyong had been injured by King Xuan, he hurried over. It looked as if he was visiting Yu Mingyong, but in actuality, he was waiting for Consort Yu to appear. Her only younger brother had been beaten up by King Xuan and such a big incident must have been spread to Consort Yu in the palace. Hence, he had waited for Consort Yu here specially to show how close he was to her brother.
He used to be a local official and was not familiar with the capital. Later, because of Auntie Fang’s incident, no one in the capital was willing to help him and he had no one to rely on. In the past, Consort Yu tried to help him, but because of Auntie Fang, Consort Yu had never sent anyone to contact him again. He had gotten his wife to go to the palace several times to ask for meeting Consort Yu. However, Consort Yu refused to meet her on the pretext of ill health.
“Elder Sister, Elder Sister, you have to help me. You have to help me.” Seeing her come in, Yu Mingyong, who was half lying on the bed, immediately cried out excitedly as if he had seen hope. However, his big moves made him let out another scream. He had no choice but to lower his body and cry out in pain.
“Humph, you’re the one who asked for it. How dare you say that?” Consort Yu harrumphed coldly and glared at Yu Mingyong angrily. How could she not know what kind of person her younger brother was? However, her heart ached when she saw he was lying on the bed moaning plaintively.
“You had just recovered from your injuries. Now, you went to provoke those you shouldn’t. You’ve improved. Are you unwilling to rest until you’re tortured to death?” Consort Yu said angrily. Even though she felt pain in her heart, her expression still darkened.
The palace maid helped her to sit on the wide leaning chair at the head of the bed and carefully put a cus.h.i.+on behind her back. Then the maid stepped back and stood behind Consort Yu.
“You can’t blame me for what happened a few days ago. It was obvious that Ding General Manor had been too flaunting. She was just a s.l.u.t. How could she be his woman? I heard that she was Sima Lingyun’s woman. You said that children of Ding General Manor were well-bred, but why did they have such a black sheep?” Yu Mingyong said angrily.
