"General Manager, there are guards Ying and Guard Deng outside asking to see you." Yingying, one of Song Liuying's maids, came over and reported in a crisp voice.
The girls looked at him.
Chu Li waved his hand and said: "Let them go back, I know what you want."
"Yes." The maid walked out lightly.
"The two guards retaliated against you, the Chief Manager, and were almost expelled from the palace by the prince." Song Liuying sighed: "You haven't seen them even once, so you're not afraid of hurting their hearts?"
Chu Li shook his head and sighed: "It's not good for them to meet, so it's better not to meet."
Song Liuying looked at him deeply and shook his head.
If the prince can be magnanimous and take Chu Li under his command, he will be even more powerful than a tiger. This is really a rare talent!... Unfortunately, the prince is not broad-minded enough.
The prince cannot force himself to be broad-minded.
After Song Liuying had dinner, he came to King An's study.
There was only Xue Ningyu in the study, and Xu Ning was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing her coming in, Xue Ningyu yawned and wanted to get up and leave.
Song Liuying pulled her and told Chu Li what he said.
Xue Ningyu's bright eyes widened and she looked at Song Liuying in surprise.
Song Liuying shook his head and sighed: "It seems that the chief manager is not from our palace after all, and the prince will never tolerate him."
"That's such a pity." Xue Ningyu frowned and said: "Such a person cannot be used by himself, and the prince is really..., forget it, we can't control so much, so what should we do?"
"It seems that we can no longer let the general manager interfere in the affairs of the house." Song Liuying shook his head and said: "The general manager also means this when he says this. He wants to stay aloof and just guard sister Xiao."
"Alas... what a pity!" Xue Ningyu sighed: "I originally wanted to find an opportunity to persuade the prince to relax his mind, but now it seems that it is not possible. The general manager has saved our lives, so we can't just watch it.
He lost his life."
"I hope the prince can forget him." Song Liuying said.
If the general manager stays at Tianshu Court and does nothing, as time goes by, the prince may slowly calm down, out of sight, out of mind, and forget to deal with him.
"Princess!" Li Gui's voice suddenly came from outside.
"What's the matter?" Xue Ningyu snorted impatiently.
After listening to Chu Li's words, she stared at Li Gui silently and found a clue.
As expected, this guy really had some undue thoughts about Qiu'er, so she wanted to find an opportunity to send him away so that he wouldn't be in front of her eyes and stop his thoughts.
Li Guidao: "The guard guarding the door was beaten!"
"Shouldn't you close the door?" Xue Ningyu hummed.
Li Guidao: "The door of the mansion is closed, but there are still guards. I didn't expect someone to be so bold as to injure two guards!"
"Does it matter if the person is there?"
"My legs and arms are broken, and my tendons are severed. Even if I recover, I'm afraid I won't be able to retain much of my martial arts skills." Li Gui sighed.
He is also a martial arts practitioner and knows that suffering this kind of injury is the most terrifying thing.
Xue Ningyu said: "Go get some of our family's golden ointment and treat them well!"
"Yes." Li Gui responded: "Princess, do you still need to send guards outside?"
Xue Ningyu glanced at Song Liuying.
Song Liuying frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head.
If we send the guards out now, I'm afraid it will have the same result. The other party has made it clear that the bullying is coming, and it must be King Cheng's hand. It's really hateful!
But before he went to bed, the prince had told him to be patient in everything. Furthermore, with Chen Kong around, I'm afraid the guards in the mansion wouldn't be able to get him to do anything good.
Xue Ningyu hummed: "What kind of guards should I send? Are you going to die again?"
Li Gui responded cautiously: "Yes."
"Hurry up and treat the injury!" Xue Ningyu said: "We can't hire any imperial doctors, so just use gold wound ointment. Use it to your heart's content, don't let them become disabled!"
"Yes." Li Gui responded and slowly backed away.
Song Liuying sighed, shook his head and said: "King Cheng is unscrupulous and will never give up and will go even further!"
"No matter how much you go too far, you can't break into the house, right?" Xue Ningyu gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "If they really dare to break into the house, then deal with them!"
"I'm afraid that the guards in the mansion can't deal with these guys." Song Liuying shook his head.
"Let's see what the prince says when he wakes up." Xue Ningyu said.
While the two were talking, King An slowly woke up.
"Your Majesty!" The two of them were overjoyed.
King An smiled. Seeing the two princesses staring at him with such concern, his cold heart felt a touch of warmth.
"Your Majesty, the guard guarding the door outside was injured. His hands and feet were broken, and his muscles were injured." Song Liuying sighed: "I'm afraid it will be the root cause of the disease. Now we have no idea, what should we do?"
King An's face darkened.
Xue Ningyu said: "I'm worried that King Cheng will break into the mansion next, this damn guy!"
"Humph, he dares!" King An snorted coldly.
Xue Ningyu said: "I think he may not dare!"
Song Liuying sighed: "I'm afraid the guards in our mansion are useless. What if Chen Kong breaks into the mansion?"
King An frowned and pondered.
"If that's not possible, we should ask the guards from the Forbidden Palace." Xue Ningyu said, "My lord, you are seriously injured, so you shouldn't hide it from the Queen."
"I don't want my mother to worry." King An shook his head.
Xue Ningyu said: "If the empress knew that you were injured, she would definitely come to visit. King Cheng would not dare to act like this!"
King An glanced at her.
Once he seeks help from the Forbidden Palace, he will become weak in the eyes of his father. Solving the current predicament will cause far-reaching harm to him.
Song Liuying said: "Your Majesty, now that we have no idea, Commander Zheng and the others may not be able to do anything about Chen Kong, right?"
"...He doesn't dare to go too far!" King An said in a deep voice.
Although King Cheng has a bad temper, acts in extreme ways, and takes eccentric swordsmanship, he is still a brother. No matter how much trouble he makes, he cannot go too far. At most, he can take it out on the guards and will not harm the princess or himself.
"Then let him deal with us unscrupulously?" Song Liuying snorted.
Xue Ningyu stared at him with bright eyes.
King An frowned and said nothing, thinking deeply.
Xue Ningyu sighed secretly.
The prince's mind is indeed too narrow to accommodate anything.
When Chu Li killed the guards of the palace, it was not for himself, but for the Duke's palace. Everyone should be his own master. He shouldn't be too harsh. The prince just clung to this hatred. In fact, there was jealousy in his heart.
Xue Ningyu couldn't help it anymore and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to mention this matter to the chief manager?"
"No!" King An's face was cold and he stared at her indifferently: "You are absolutely not allowed to say a word to Chu Li. Remember, after returning home, Tianshu Academy was sealed and no news was allowed inside!"
"Your Majesty..." Xue Ningyu wanted to persuade.
Song Liuying hurriedly said: "Yes, just don't let the chief manager know!... Your lord, can you just endure it like this?"
"Be patient!" King An snorted: "When I recover my martial arts, I will settle the score with them again. It's no big deal to endure my anger for a while!"
"...Yes." The two women nodded helplessly.
Li Gui's voice came from outside again: "Princess, two guards have been killed."
"Isn't it forbidden to leave the house?" Xue Ningyu said hurriedly.
Li Guidao: "The sundries in the house have to be sent out. Just send them to the street. I didn't expect..."
