Chapter 14 The Excuse For Him
Chu Yu looked at Su Youning who was kneeling on the ground, suppressed his cold smile, and began to size her up.

After a while, he opened his lips lightly, his tone full of contempt.

"There is a gesture of asking for help, but why does this hall want to help you?"

Su Youning's mind was spinning rapidly, how to get Chu Yu to agree!
"My concubine enters the palace. If I can return home with His Royal Highness on the day of my return, my parents in the mansion will definitely comfort me. Please Your Highness do it."

After thinking for a while, Su Youning decided to tell the truth.

Chu Yu's temperament is too weird, so it's better to refrain from showing off, so as not to be self-defeating and anger him.

After finishing speaking, Su Youning slowly raised her eyes and looked at Chu Yu, her bright and clear eyes were only pleading but not calculating, she really wanted her parents to feel at ease.

Chu Yu's handsome face was a little more ferocious because of Su Youning's gaze, which was complicated and gloomy.

"Su Youning!"

"You have not fulfilled your responsibilities as a princess in the mansion for two days, but instead asked the palace to cooperate with you. Are you wishful thinking?"

After pausing for a second, Chu Yu put his elbows on his knees, and bowed close to Su Youning, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Still looking for death!"

Su Youning's breathing stopped when Chu Yu suddenly approached him, and he couldn't help but lean back slightly, his clear eyes were tinged with fear and melancholy.

Didn't fulfill the duty of the princess?

Su Youning lowered her eyes and said respectfully.

"I know I was wrong, please punish me, Your Highness."

Chu Yu looked at Su Youning, who had a low eyebrow and a pleasant ear, pinched Su Youning's chin with his slender fingers, and said casually.

"Wangfei thinks how should the palace punish me?"

Su Youning didn't dare to speak, but the strength in Chu Yu's hands increased, and she couldn't help raising her chin.

Chu Yu looked at the beautiful face of the girl in front of him, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, but there was a little charm in this trace of dissatisfaction, a trace of desire flashed in his eyes, and his gaze fell on Su Youning's sharpened chin , the finger marks left after hard work are clearly visible.

"Does it hurt?"

Su Youning stabilized his mind and spoke out a few words with difficulty.

"It doesn't hurt."

Chu Yu glanced at her in disgust, shook her away forcefully, took the handkerchief Ze Lan handed over, wiped his hands, threw it at Su Youning's feet, and said coldly.

"Su Youning recognizes himself. You are no different from the women in Youlanyuan in the eyes of this hall. If you violate this hall again, you don't mind taking your life."

Ze Lan glanced at Su Youning who was on the ground, and pushed Chu Yu into the main courtyard.

Su Youning, who was still kneeling on the ground, did not dare to take a big breath until the guard with the knife disappeared.

Chu Yu rejected her, and Su Youning fell to the ground, not knowing how to face the return door tomorrow.

Su Youning's gloomy emotions that had been hidden in her heart for the past few days permeated in an instant. She is not indestructible, she can comfort everyone that she is fine, but she cannot comfort herself.

She was the only one who experienced the scenes in the previous life. In this life, she thought that escaping from Shen Moli would make her parents feel at ease. Now it seems that she is really wishful thinking!

He staggered towards Luoxue Pavilion.

Jixiang Ruyi waited anxiously at the entrance of Luoxue Pavilion, when she saw Su Youning who was walking in nothingness from afar, she rushed up.

Looking at the reddish fingerprints left on Su Youning's chin, the two felt distressed, and Ji Xiang couldn't help but ask.I can only use a hot towel to help Su Youning apply it.

"Princess, did the lord punish you?"

Su Youning put away those emotions, a smile appeared on her pale face.

"No, it's just that I failed to ask the prince to come back with me, and I'm afraid I will make my parents sad tomorrow."

Jixiang Ruyi's eyes were red, and she didn't know what to say to comfort Su Youning, so she could only help Su Youning to walk towards Luoxue Pavilion.

As he approached the gate of Luoxue Pavilion, Su Youning stopped and let go of Ji Xiangruyi's hand.

"No, I'll go in by myself."

He reached out his hand to explore the pearl hairpin on the probe, but it was not messed up.

"Can you still see the fingerprints on the chin?"

Ji Xiang bit his lip silently, Ruyi's brows and eyes were full of worry, and she reached out to wipe Su Youning's chin.

"If you don't take a closer look, you won't be able to see it clearly, Wangfei don't worry."

Su Youning nodded, took a deep breath, frowned, and walked into Luoxue Pavilion with a smile.

The dilapidated courtyard has been tidied up by Mama Lin.

"Princess, according to your order, this old servant has sent someone to tidy up the Luoxue Pavilion. I wonder if the concubine is dissatisfied?"

Su Youning put away her humble appearance in front of Chu Yu, raised her chin slightly, and looked at the courtyard.

"Mother Lin is really experienced in doing things. In just two short days, Sunset Snow Pavilion has changed. It would be even better if some flowers that are easy to feed are planted in the courtyard."

Mother Lin understood and replied respectfully.

"Yes, the old slave understands."

After dealing with the people arranged by the palace, Su Youning entered the wing.

I went to Chu Yu's courtyard to toss around, and before I knew it, it was already noon.

After lunch, Su Youning, who was taking a nap in the wing room, lay on her side on the soft bed, propped her side face up with one hand and leaned against the soft pillow, looking out of the window in a daze.

Jixiang lightly lighted the tranquilizing incense, and was about to exit the room.

"Jixiang, go and call Mother Lin in, I have something to ask her."

Su Youning suddenly got up and said to Jixiang.

Ji Xiang nodded and quickly followed suit.

Mother Lin stood in the wing room and saluted Su Youning.

Su Youning had already sat down, with a peaceful smile on her face.

"Mother Lin, all courtiers and daughters in the capital who marry into the palace have to go through the teachings of the maids in the palace to learn the etiquette in the palace and the etiquette of serving the emperor, but Mama Lin must also know that the prince and You Ning got married in a hurry, and You Ning didn't care about it." I didn’t learn from the nuns in the palace, so I don’t know many etiquettes and rules.”

"You are experienced in doing things. You must be an old man in Prince Yu's Mansion. You Ning is afraid that you will not be able to serve the prince well, so I want to ask Mama Lin to give me some advice. What can and can't be done in Prince Yu's Mansion?"

Mother Lin seemed not at all surprised by Su Youning's question.

"Princess, you are being polite. If there is something you don't understand, just ask, and this old servant will know everything."

After hearing this, Su Youning felt slightly relaxed.

Taking advantage of the afternoon, Su Youning learned everything that Prince Yu's Mansion could know. Mother Lin was indeed an old man, and she knew many taboos in Prince Yu's Mansion.

Mother Lin told Su Youning that there are many places in Su Youning's mansion that you can't go to, many things you can't do, and the prince's main courtyard should not be approached, and everything should be reported to Master Zelan in advance.

The more Lin's mother talked, the colder Su Youning's heart became.

She originally wanted to keep herself safe in Prince Yu's Mansion and at least save her life, but she got confirmation from Mother Lin about the Youlan Garden.

I heard from Ji Xiang once that corpses would be brought out of Youlan Garden every day. Su Youning thought it was a malicious rumor, but she didn't expect that Lin's mother would agree to the rumor.

"Women who serve the prince poorly will end up like that."

Su Youning couldn't help but get chills down her spine, how could any woman in the capital dare to disobey Chu Yu?
Poor service!
These four words are probably an excuse made by Lin's mother for Chu Yu!

Mother Lin said a lot, but Su Youning didn't know that what she said was something that all the servants in the house knew.

Seeing that Su Youning was listening seriously, Mother Lin wanted to remind her a little more, but remembering the instructions from Butler Liu and Master Zelan, she swallowed the words back.

"If the concubine has nothing else to know, then the old slave will retire."

"Wait, Mother Lin."

Su Youning called her back, bit her lip, and still asked the question in her heart.

"Do you know what kind of food the prince likes to eat? Or dim sum."
