Yunliu’s words also echoed Eleven’s concerns.
Everyone isn’t a fool, their prince hasn’t shown up for several days. Given his temperament, it’s impossible for him to let Cheng Ru’er act so recklessly.
“I don’t know what came over me, Yunliu patted her forehead with some regret and said indignantly, “We shouldn’t have let her go just like that.”
Eleven raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean, Sixth Brother?”
“When has our prince ever shown any face to those women? And the prince never really took the emperor’s so-called imperial edict seriously. So, according to our prince’s temperament, he definitely won’t let this Cheng Ru’er go easily.”
They were inexplicably slow to deal with this matter, and surprisingly, they didn’t go all out against Cheng Ruier because she had an imperial decree in her hands. This style of conduct was completely unlike their usual approach as a prince.
This has become more difficult. It seems the people watching them secretly are about to confirm that their prince is not at the military camp.
Eleven also realized this, his mind sharping. “Then… then we go kill that woman now?”
That would be even more inappropriate. Acting now would only make them think we’re guilty, and it would only confirm their suspicions that the prince is not at the camp.
Upon hearing Yunliu’s explanation, Eleven also felt that there was some truth to it. However, the situation was currently perilous, and they were uncertain when the prince would return.
The more crucial the moment, the more imperative it is to keep the prince’s whereabouts secret from the enemy.
Originally, Han Yun playing their prince was quite good, and no one would have discovered it. Now that Cheng Ru’er has made a fuss, things have become tricky and difficult to handle.
This woman is truly a scourge.
After a moment of silence, Yunliu sighed, “It seems we need to come up with a plan tonight to create the illusion that the prince is at the military camp.”
But this method is rather risky. If the person watching them is not very familiar with their prince, perhaps it could work.
The fear is that this person in the shadows has done extensive research on the prince. Then, pretending to be Han Yun would likely be difficult to pull off.
However, we can only take it one step at a time.
Yunliu stroked the warhorse’s neck, “Let’s go. We still need to discuss this with Han Yun properly. If we want to make it happen tonight, we’ll need his cooperation.”
“Mmm.”
The two men immediately rode their horses back to the stable and, after having the stable soldiers lead them away, Eleven glanced at Yunliu’s warhorse. He suddenly remembered what Yunliu had done with his horse at the entrance and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“What are you laughing at?”
“Brother Liu, what you did today was unmannerly.”
“?!”
Eleven suddenly came up with such a nonsensical remark, which only confused Yunliu further, “What is unbecoming?”
“It’s just using the war horse to scare Cheng Ruier, you know. She’s just a weak woman who can’t stand being scared like that by you. You didn’t see it, when the horse charged past just now, I saw Cheng Ruier trembling all over and almost fainted! Hahahahaha, Yunliu, you really don’t know how to be merciful!”
<As he spoke, Eleventh couldn’t help but picture Cheng Ru’er’s timid appearance, and burst into laughter. >>>
“… ” Let me know if you have any other text you’d like me to translate! ?
Yun Liu, after hearing his words, gave him a speechless glance, her eyes as if looking at an idiot. After Shi Yi laughed himself silly, he rolled his eyes and said in a bad mood:
“Is that funny? First, that woman isn’t Ning’er. I don’t have a soft spot for women like that, and I’m not stupid. Besides, how did you see that I was just scaring Cheng Ru’er just now?”
“Huh? Sixth Brother, are you serious? You’re not just scaring her?”
“Of course not, I charged forward to test the abilities of those she brought with her. But I never intended to frighten her. If that person hadn’t rushed out to shield her, my horse… would have truly trampled her.”
It wasn’t until those people rushed over that he realized they were no ordinary individuals. Their skill was evident, and it was clear they weren’t the Imperial Guards sent by Cheng Ruer as she had claimed.
If they had actually fought just now, he and Eleven together might not have been a match for those people.
This is also one of the reasons why Eleven suggested returning to kill Cheng Ru’er, but he disagreed.
Through a brief test just now, he knew very well that the people around Cheng Ru’er were deeply skilled in internal energy. If they rashly made a move, they would gain nothing but trouble, and would only make matters worse.
It wouldn’t be feasible to have him mobilize the Yun family army that came with the prince at this time to deal with those people, because they are currently short-handed. Everyone in the army has their own specific duties, and it would be impossible for them to leave their posts easily. Otherwise, if an emergency situation arose, the army would surely fall into chaos.
After much deliberation, the most prudent course of action is to await the prince’s return before proceeding.
Eleven soon realized the pros and cons of this, he snorted in displeasure, “In that case, they can only continue to frolic for a few days.”
Let them wait for their prince to return and take charge. Then, he’ll go and see those people himself, and find out who they really are.
……
Meanwhile, back at her temporary residence, Cheng Ru’er seethed with anger. The thought that just two servants dared to treat her so ruthlessly made her blood boil the more she thought about it.
As soon as I got back to the room, I was so angry that I threw everything off the table to the ground. It shattered all over the place with a crash.
Those who followed her in also frowned uniformly.
At this point, their eyes held no respect for Cheng Ru’er; instead, they saw her as nothing more than a waste of space.
As soon as she thought about how she, holding the Emperor’s imperial decree, was still unable to get the King of Beijang to meet her, the looks in those people’s eyes turned into ones that treated her like trash.
This time, she had failed to accomplish anything, yet she still dared to throw a tantrum and smash things. The look in their eyes immediately turned impatient, revealing a murderous intent.
It’s a pity that Cheng Ru’er didn’t realize these people’s impatience and murderous intent at all. She was used to being a young lady, so after throwing things, she subconsciously turned around and roared at the people behind her:
“You bunch of useless idiots, why didn’t you stop those two lowly servants just now? Allowing them to swagger in front of me! What on earth are you doing, you imbeciles!”
“… ” Let me know if you have any other text you’d like me to translate!
These people instantly changed color, apparently they didn’t expect Cheng Ru’er to yell at them.
Doesn’t she truly treat them as servants? With such entitled accusations towards them?
What a fine Cheng Ru’er.
Cheng Ruer, preoccupied with her own thoughts, hadn’t noticed the subtle shifts in expressions on these people’s faces. The humiliation Yun Liu and Eleven had inflicted upon her earlier left a burning ember of anger within her; she desperately needed an outlet to unleash it.
And subconsciously, she treated the people in front of her as her servants, thinking she could scold them at will.
Then, she pointed at their faces, gritting her teeth as she continued, ” Aren’t you all very capable? How come so many of you can’t do anything about those two servants? You bunch of cowards who only know how to hide, you… ah!”
