Ye Jingyu raised an eyebrow, "Are you trying to persuade this king to reconcile with him? Little one, you're still too young to advise adults."
Su Yunmo pouted and crossed her arms, "I hate it when you act mature. Haven't you heard that listening to advice leads to a full meal?"
The Emperor had so many concubines in his harem. If he didn't have true feelings for Consort Liang, why would he still be thinking of her after all these years?
The last time Consort Liang fell into the river, the Emperor had jumped in without regard for his own life. Not all men could do something like that.
Ye Jingyu pursed his lips and looked at her, then suddenly chuckled.
The little dumpling immediately huffed, "What are you laughing at! I'm being serious!"
Ye Jingyu was the most annoying!
"Alright, I have things to do. You go play by yourself," Ye Jingyu said, rubbing her little head and preparing to put her down.
He had a lot to do today and no time to talk about love with a little girl who had just been weaned. Such things were indeed too early for her.
Su Yunmo knew he was looking down on her, so she huffed and turned her head away.
Qianxue knocked and entered, looking a little flustered, "Little Miss, someone from Second Young Master's side said to ask you to go over."
Su Yunmo pouted, "I know. Second Brother is too impatient."
She was helping him with something, why was he rushing her so much?
Qianxue frowned, "It seems something happened at the jewelry store Second Young Master just opened, and he had to rush back."
Su Yunmo was startled, "What happened?"
Qianxue shook her head, "They didn't say what exactly, just that it seemed like a big commotion."
Su Yunmo subconsciously looked up at Ye Jingyu.
Ye Jingyu sighed inwardly, stood up, picked her up, and walked towards the door. "Prepare the carriage, this king will go and see."
Su Yunmo's eyes lit up, and she hugged his head and kissed him, "You're such a good person!"
With him around, she could be like a fox borrowing a tiger's might!
Ye Jingyu shook his head helplessly.
Only at times like this could he hear her say something nice.
Su Siqi's jewelry store was located on the main street in the east of the city. A crowd had gathered outside, all craning their necks to look inside and pointing.
When Su Yunmo arrived, she heard screams coming from inside.
Su Siqi stood at the innermost part of the store with a displeased expression. The mute servant was beside him, and several henchmen were lying on the ground.
Su Yunmo was carried inside, "Second Brother, are you alright?"
Su Siqi gritted his teeth in anger, "No one is dead, but my heart aches!"
These bastards dared to make a move while he was away. Everything in the store was something he had bought at great expense, and it was all gone!
His money!
Su Yunmo looked around.
The jade jewelry in the counter had been thrown to the ground and smashed to pieces.
There were very few intact items left in the entire store.
Su Yunmo frowned, "What exactly happened?"
"Do I need to ask? Competitors are filled with naked hatred!" Su Siqi looked up and saw Ye Jingyu.
"Your Highness Prince Yu, since you've witnessed this, you can't just stand by. This humble citizen awaits your judgment."
He couldn't let the money he spent go to waste. Since Prince Yu was here, it would be easier.
Before Ye Jingyu could speak, Su Yunmo jumped off the ground, "Whoever dared to make a move on Second Brother, Mo Mo will go beat them up!"
"As expected of my sister, you speak my mind." Su Siqi strode over, raised his hand, and shouted, "Take people, follow me!"
That bastard was afraid of me stealing his business, so let's make sure no one else has a good time either!
Su Siqi strode confidently towards the jewelry store diagonally opposite.
The mute servant, carrying two henchmen in each hand, followed him. Su Siqi's managers also followed him out.
Qianxue stepped forward and softly called out, "Master."
Seeing the little dumpling being led away, Ye Jingyu shook his head helplessly and also followed.
Meanwhile, in the jewelry store, the Third Concubine was in the backyard listening to her subordinates report the incident.
Su Siqi arrived with his men in a grand procession. As soon as he entered, he shouted, "Smash!"
His men, who were already displeased at being bullied, immediately started to act upon hearing Su Siqi's order.
The Third Concubine heard the commotion and hurried out from the back room, "Stop! Everyone, stop!"
Su Yunmo was stunned when she saw this, then frowned.
It really was a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road.
"You again, you little brat?" The Third Concubine also saw Su Yunmo. She stopped the people who were smashing things and pointed at Su Siqi, scolding him.
"You little brat, you have no regard for the law! You dare to smash things in my store in broad daylight?"
Last time, these two brats had smashed her casino, and now they were causing trouble at the jewelry store. Did she really have no one under her command?
Su Siqi sneered, "This is just returning the favor. If anyone broke the rules first, it was you."
He beckoned, and the mute servant threw the two people he was holding in.
Su Siqi pointed at them, "You two bastards were sent by you to my place, weren't you?"
The Third Concubine was surprised to see these two, then denied it, "Don't slander good people. I don't know them!"
Su Siqi frowned in disgust, "Dare to do it but not admit it? Smash it again!"
Don't think she could get away with it just by saying 'I don't know'. There was no such easy thing in this world!
The mute servant squeezed into the room and led the people to continue smashing things.
The valuable jade jewelry was all thrown to the ground.
The Third Concubine, watching these items being smashed, shouted, "Someone! Get them out of here!"
Several servants with sticks came out from the inner rooms.
The servants from both sides began to fight.
This commotion not only failed to drive out the mute servant and his group but also resulted in more damaged items.
"Stop! Everyone, stop!" The Third Concubine cried out in distress, "You are truly lawless! Someone, quickly call the authorities!"
Su Siqi crossed his arms and coldly snorted, "There's no need to call the authorities. Someone more powerful than the authorities has already arrived."
Ye Jingyu entered from outside.
The Third Concubine looked up and saw him, her eyes widening in shock, "Your Highness Prince Yu?"
Why would His Highness Prince Yu suddenly come here?
The onlookers outside, upon learning of Ye Jingyu's identity, all knelt to pay their respects.
Ye Jingyu swept his gaze lightly over the room, "This king already knows the specifics of the matter. This store shall be sealed from today onwards."
Qianxue stepped forward, took out the Prince Yu's mansion's waist token, and was about to seal the store.
The Third Concubine did not expect Ye Jingyu to seal the store without a word and shouted unwillingly, "Wait!"
She stood up from the ground, "Even if you are a prince, you cannot just seal my store. Since you claim I caused trouble first, you must provide evidence."
She had long heard that Prince Yu and the General's mansion's brat had a close relationship, and now it was true.
But no matter what, she was still a member of the Marquis's mansion, the mother-in-law of Prince Lian.
Prince Yu should at least give her some face and not be so biased towards Su Yunmo based on their words.
