Chapter 133 Did something wrong
The next morning, the sun shone through the window onto the table. Crown Prince Chu Chengli sat there, looking at the food in front of him with a dazed look. Sitting next to him was Li Jingshu, who was asking softly, "Your Highness, did you not get enough rest last night?"
Chu Chengli frowned slightly, as if he was still immersed in some thoughts. He murmured to himself: "Jingshu, you know, I had a strange dream last night. In the dream, a person turned into another completely different person. What does this mean?"
Hearing Chu Chengli's words, Li Jingshu's heart tightened, but she tried to keep her voice calm: "Your Highness, did you dream about Luo Lingyue?" She stared at Chu Chengli, trying to catch a clue from his expression. Chu Chengli opened his eyes wide in surprise, and his voice unconsciously raised: "How did you know?"
Li Jingshu's mouth twitched slightly, but she soon regained her composure. She lowered her head and drank milk silently, as if she wanted to use this action to cover up her inner anger. However, when she raised her head again, her face showed an elusive indifference.
"I heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince calling Luo Lingyue's name last night." Her tone was light, as if she didn't care, but there was a barely perceptible resentment in her eyes.
Chu Chengli's expression suddenly became a little ugly, his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about how to deal with the situation. After a moment of silence, he finally explained to Li Jingshu: "Last night I dreamed that the ugly maid was Luo Lingyue! Maybe it's because too many things have happened recently, which makes me a little uneasy."
Li Jingshu's mood became heavier, but she still forced a smile and comforted him, "Your Highness, dreams are often illusory and impermanent, so don't take it too seriously. Perhaps you have been too tired and restless recently." However, her heart was not as calm as it seemed, because she knew very well what this dream might mean...
After Li Jingshu finished speaking, she felt heavy in her chest and continued to eat her breakfast absentmindedly. Her mind had already flown elsewhere, and she didn't pay much attention to what Chu Chengli said later.
Seeing this, Chu Chengli also felt bored and did not mention the dream again. After all, to him, it was just an insignificant dream.
However, after falling asleep last night, Li Jingshu fell into that strange dream again. In the dream, she tightly entangled a man's body like in the previous dream, and constantly bewitched him with sweet words: "Cheng Li! Kill Luo Lingyue! Kill her, and everything will belong to us!" Her voice was full of temptation and desire, as if Luo Lingyue's existence was the biggest obstacle to their happiness.
After Chu Chengli finished his breakfast, he got up and left the East Palace. His steps seemed a little hurried, as if there was something important waiting for him to deal with.
At the same time, in the East Palace, Li Jingshu called Bing'er. Her eyes flashed with resentment, as if burning with endless anger. Bing'er stood quietly aside, feeling the anger of her master, but she dared not say much, just silently waiting for instructions.
"Go find someone to find a way to get rid of Luo Lingyue!" Li Jingshu's voice was cold and firm, revealing a sense of determination. Bing'er trembled slightly. She knew the difficulty of this task, but she also knew that she could not disobey her master's order.
On the other side, in a teahouse in the capital, Dark Moon Fairy was meeting with Ying Liu. Her brows were furrowed, and her eyes revealed dissatisfaction and confusion.
"I asked you to go to Jiangnan and follow Luo Lingliu, why did you come back?" Dark Moon Enchantress' tone was filled with a hint of blame.
The corner of Ying Liu's eye twitched, and he lowered his head, not daring to look Dark Moon Fairy in the eye. "Pavilion Master... I seem to have done something wrong..." His voice was filled with self-blame and uneasiness.
The Dark Moon Pavilion Master's heart suddenly sank, and an ominous premonition came to her mind. She hurriedly asked, "Where are Sword Four and Sword Five?"
Ying Liu quickly replied: "They are still in Jiangning, secretly protecting Young Master Luo..." There was a hint of helplessness and regret in his words.
The Dark Moon Pavilion Master poured a cup of tea and gently handed it to Ying Liu, motioning him to sit down. Her voice was calm and serious: "Tell me in detail what you did wrong." Ying Liu took the teacup, looked at the Dark Moon Pavilion Master gratefully, then slowly sat down and began to tell what happened.
Luo Lingliu embarked on the journey to Jiangnan and had a safe journey. As a shrewd and capable businessman, Luo Lingliu not only has excellent eloquence, but also has keen insight. While carefully examining the operation of his own business, he also paid attention to the dynamics of merchants along the way, and made many like-minded business friends.
At the same time, Jian Si, Jian Wu and Ying Liu were ordered by the Pavilion Master to come and protect Luo Lingfeng. They disguised themselves as chivalrous knights and followed Luo Lingliu quietly, always keeping vigilant.
After a long journey, Luo Lingliu finally arrived at the destination of this trip, Jiangning, the most prosperous and lively city in Jiangnan. This is the largest silk and satin production base in Dazhao Country, and its reputation is far-reaching. Luo Lingliu came to Jiangning this time to purchase various goods. In addition, he also intends to open a restaurant here, mainly serving Shangjing specialty dishes, in order to expand his business territory.
Everything was going very smoothly, but unexpectedly, when buying silk and satin, Luo Lingliu met a business expert. This woman was Shen Yourong, the only daughter of Shen Yuqi, the richest businessman in Jiangning.
Shen Yourong is well-known in Jiangning because she is famous for her business skills. Although she is beautiful, her overly shrewd personality makes people stay away from her. In Jiangning, as long as the name Shen Yourong is mentioned, most people will shake their heads helplessly.
Now, Shen Yourong is over 19 years old, but still unmarried. The reason is that the Shen family only has this precious daughter, and Shen Yuqi has set a rule for this: Shen Yourong's future husband must marry into the Shen family, and their children must also have the surname Shen! Such harsh conditions have discouraged many interested parties.
The many famous and scholarly families in Jiangning City all valued dignity and reputation, so how could they easily send their sons to become sons-in-law of merchants? After all, in the eyes of these families, merchants had a low status, and even if the other party was extremely wealthy, it was difficult for them to match them.
On the other hand, ordinary people were also afraid of Shen Yourong. Although they coveted the wealth of the Shen family, they were afraid of Shen Yourong's aggressive and shrewd personality. No one wanted their son to be bullied after marriage and live a miserable life.
As time went by, Shen Yourong's marriage was delayed until she was already 19 years old, but she still hadn't found her ideal husband!
