Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 496 Gong Yu's Excuse and the Counterattack

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb. The beauty will be here soon. Don't scare her with your behavior." Qiu Yuan said directly
"Brother, you, you haven't even met this person yet, and you're like this? Aren't you exaggerating too much? You weren't like this when you were with Yang Liuxin yesterday?" Qiu Ze said
"Nonsense, what is Yang Liuxin's place? What they play there is just vulgarity. If you are not vulgar, how can you play? But this is different. Here you have to be elegant." Qiu Yuan said directly
Before Qiu Ze could speak, he heard the door being pushed open, and then a gentle voice came, "Gong Yu thanks you for your compliments, you are too kind."

"Hey, looking at Miss Gong Yu's temperament, I know I'm right." Qiu Yuan said directly
"Sir, you are joking. Thank you for your compliment. I wonder what you want to hear?" Gong Yu said with a smile

"Haha, I'm fine with anything. As long as you talk about it, I like to listen to everything." Qiu Yuan said
"Oh, second brother, go out now. This is none of your business." After saying this, Qiu Yuan remembered that his second brother was still here, so he waved his hand at Qiu Ze.

Qiu Ze was stunned when he heard this. How could this happen? It was like this yesterday and it is still like this today? This is too inhuman, isn't it? How could this happen?
Although he was secretly dissatisfied in his heart, Qiu Ze didn't dare to say it out loud. After all, he was his eldest brother.

She could only nod, and then pushed the door open and walked out. After he left, Qiu Yuan smiled and said, "Girl, the annoying person has left. Shall we get started?"

After listening to it, Gong Yu slowly began to play her own music. As Qiu Yuan listened, he slowly closed his eyes and his mood gradually became empty. He did not open his eyes until the sound of the piano disappeared.

Qiu Yuan stared at Gong Yu in front of him, his eyes full of aggression, which made Gong Yu feel very uncomfortable.

"Mr. Qiu, if you don't have any other instructions, I will take my leave now." Gong Yu was so frightened that she wanted to leave this dangerous place immediately.

But how could Qiu Yuan let her do what she wanted? So he smiled and said, "Hey, Miss Gong Yu, don't be so anxious. You must have a drink with me before you leave."

After hearing this, Gong Yu could only nod, then walked forward and started pouring wine. After Qiu Yuan took the glass, he did not drink it, but pulled Gong Yu into his arms.

Suddenly attacked, Gong Yu subconsciously wanted to fight back, but she soon realized that she couldn't do that, so she let her body fall into Qiu Yuan's arms.

"Sir, please respect yourself. If you want, I will call other sisters in for you." Gong Yu said as she struggled to stand up.
Qiu Yuan naturally wouldn't let her have her way, and at the same time he said, "How can anyone else compare to you?"

"Please respect yourself and let me go." Gong Yu continued to evade.
"Hmm? My little beauty, am I too polite to you? I'm here to have fun today, so I don't want to be violent, but you shouldn't be ungrateful, hum!" Qiu Yuan said coldly.
After hearing this, Gong Yu suddenly had a hairpin in her hand, and she pressed it tightly against her neck and said, "Sir, you are of noble status, so I dare not be presumptuous."

"But I have already made up my mind that I will never marry until I meet a good man who can give me a legitimate status. If you insist on doing so, I can only die to apologize."

"Hmm? My little beauty, did I hear you right? You said you want a legitimate status? With your background, do you really want a legal wife?" Qiu Yuan said directly.
"I was born into a brothel, so I naturally don't dare to have such delusions. I'm happy to be your concubine." Gong Yu said
"What a joke! With your reputation, if you really wanted to be a concubine, you would have already changed your ways. Why wait until now? Are you kidding me?" Qiu Yuan said
"How dare I, a mere willow catkin, tease you, sir? With my reputation, I will have no trouble finding a lover. I have already prepared the money to redeem myself, but it is hard to find a good man."

"If I went to an ordinary family, I would just be passed on to someone else in the end, and there are many dirty things going on in those wealthy families."

"I have thought about it several times before, but in the end it was nothing." Gong Yu said helplessly
"Okay, I'm really tired of this forced melon. I just want you to crawl onto my bed obediently. You're just a concubine, right? I'll give it to you!"

"Someone, someone, go get me the madam!" Qiu Yuan shouted to the outside of the door.
Soon the madam came in with a smile on her face. When she saw Gong Yu holding the hairpin against her neck, she immediately said, "Oh my little ancestor, put it down, put it down."

"Mr. Qiu, please take your time to speak. Our girl is timid and can't help being scared."

"Alright, I don't want to waste time talking to you. Go get her indenture and I will redeem her today." Qiu Yuan interrupted the madam.

"Ah? What? Redeem her? Oh, Mr. Qiu, everyone knows this Miss Gong Yu. She is the pillar of our Miaoyinfang. Please don't joke with me." The madam hurriedly said

"Are you kidding? I never joke with anyone. Go get her indenture. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will tear down your Miaoyinfang!" Qiu Yuan said angrily.

"Oh, here, here, here, don't be angry, don't be angry, I'll get it right away, I'll get it right away." After hearing this, the madam winked at Gong Yu, and then obediently retreated.

At this moment, Gong Yu's mind was racing. She knew that she was in big trouble this time. If she didn't handle it well, she might have to leave the capital.

At this time, the madam hurriedly found Mr. Thirteen.

"Mr. Thirteen, what do you think we should do now? Qiu Yuan is determined to redeem Miss Gong Yu. He is waiting right here. We can't hide even if we want to." said the madam.

"The Sect Master is about to go to the capital, so nothing can happen to Miaoyinfang at this time, otherwise it will ruin the Sect Master's plan."

"Then, you go find Prince Ji. He is the only one who can stop Qiu Yuan now." Mr. Thirteen said
After hearing this, the madam hurriedly sent someone to find Prince Ji, while she herself returned to Qiu Yuan's room.

"Hmm? She came back pretty quickly. Where's her indenture?" Qiu Yuan asked directly.

"Mr. Qiu, you can take out the indenture, but do you want to see the silver?" the madam asked.

"Silver? You don't need to ask me for silver. Just ask her directly. Tell her how much silver you want and she will give it to you." Qiu Yuan said directly
After hearing this, the madam was dumbfounded. How could this be possible? They made such a big fuss to redeem the prostitute, but in the end they didn't pay a penny and even let the girl pay for it herself?

"Ah? This, Mr. Qiu, isn't this too much? Miss, do you really want to pay for it yourself?" The madam looked embarrassed and winked at Gong Yu.

Gong Yu felt very embarrassed when she saw the look in the madam's eyes. She certainly understood what the madam meant, but she had just said it. If she were to go back on her words now, wouldn't that mean that she was playing a trick on Qiu Yuan? So she naturally couldn't refute it, but nodded directly.

"Did you see clearly? Gong Yu agreed to this herself, why don't you go!" Qiu Yuan said directly
The madam was in a dilemma after hearing this. She dared not delay the egg tart liquid any longer. She was afraid that Qiu Yuan would be really angry. If that happened, they would not be able to open Miaoyinfang.

And just when she was in trouble, the person she had sent out before finally arrived at Hongxiuzhao and invited Prince Ji over. When the madam saw Prince Ji coming, she immediately felt relieved.

Seeing that Prince Ji had actually arrived, Qiu Yuan naturally did not dare to be arrogant, and hurriedly stood up and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Alright, alright, forget it. I came here this time because I heard that you wanted to redeem Miss Gong Yu. Is that true?" Prince Ji asked.

"Your Majesty, I dare not hide it. I do have this intention." Qiu Yuan said directly
"Oh? You really want to do this? I say, boy from the Qiu family, you better think about it. If you redeem Gong Yu, your reputation will be ruined?" Prince Ji said directly.
"Your Majesty, although I was a little impulsive today, it's not entirely true. Please allow me to explain the inside story in detail. Are the others okay?" Qiu Yuan said
"Haha, okay, then all of you go out and I'll see what you can say." Ji Wang said
The madam and the people brought by Prince Ji all went out, and Gong Yu was naturally among them.

"Your Highness, actually the reason why I am doing this today is that I am used to living a hard life. You don't know how hard life is here." After Qiu Yuan finished speaking, he directly picked up the wine jug and took a big sip.

"Your Majesty, I finally got back, can't I enjoy myself? I came here to have fun today, everything is fine."

"Tell me what happened. This little girl refused to let me touch her. She insisted on giving me a name. Although I am a rough man, I am not stupid."

"What's the point of talking about status? It's just that they don't like me. I've been at the border for so many years, fighting for so many years, and now it's not easy to come back. How can I bear this?"

"Didn't she put forward the conditions herself, saying that she wanted a name? Fine, then I will give her a name."

"The more she despises me, the more I must have her. Prince, I know why Miaoyinfang invited you here today. Since you are here, I must give you face."

"But I still say the same thing. I'm determined to get this young lady. Unless Your Majesty takes her to your house today, she will be mine." Qiu Yuan said directly
After hearing this, Prince Ji knew that he could no longer intervene, because Qiu Yuan had made it very clear that he could either take the person away himself or not intervene.

In fact, the reason why he agreed to come here today was entirely because he couldn't save his face, and at the same time he was reluctant to leave Gong Yu's piano music.

He thought someone was drunk and causing trouble, and this kind of thing has happened many times over the years, but now when he heard it, it was not the case at all. He actually regretted it now.

"Alright, Qiu, I understand. I have no intention of taking Gong Yu back to my house. She doesn't even like you, so how could she like an old man like me?"

"Okay, since you have made up your mind, then make your own decision. It's getting late. I need to go to rest. I'm old and my health is not as good as before." After saying this, King Ji walked out.

Seeing this, Qiu Yuan naturally hurriedly stood up to see her off. After seeing off King Ji, he said nothing and walked out of Miaoyinfang directly.

Seeing that he left without saying anything, and even called Qiu Ze, the madam and Gong Yu became a little nervous for a moment. They didn't believe that Qiu Yuan would just let it go like that.

So at this time, Gong Yu quickly returned to his residence, where Mr. Thirteen was.

"Mr. Thirteen, Prince Ji came. They talked for less than two quarters of an hour before he left. Not long after Prince Ji left, Qiu Yuan also left. What should I do now?" Gong Yu said
"It's getting late now, and you can't leave the city. So, you should leave the city at dawn tomorrow and go back to Jiangzuo. Once you get to Jiangzuo, everything will be fine." Mr. Thirteen said
"What? Sir, you want me to go back to Jiangzuo? Isn't there any other way?" Gong Yu said
"Gong Yu, I know you are unwilling, but this is the best way. Prince Ji may be able to persuade you this time, but what about next time? What should we do next time?"

"Qiu Yuan is now the focus of the entire capital. His every word and action is watched by countless people. I'm afraid that what he did in Miaoyinfang is now known to the whole city." Mr. Thirteen said in a deep voice.
"I understand, sir. I'll go back and clean it up now." Gong Yu said helplessly.

At this time in Prince Yu's Mansion, Prince Yu was discussing Qiu Yuan's matter tonight with Qin Prajna.

"Your Majesty, this is a great opportunity for us to win over Qiu Yuan. As long as we can send Gong Yu to Qiu Yuan, I think this matter will be halfway accomplished."

"When the time comes, we will definitely be able to win over Qiu Yuan first." Prajna said
"Well, Prajna, what you said makes sense. Let's do this. Send someone to Miaoyinfang early tomorrow morning and find a way to rescue the person." Prince Yu said
"Your Highness, if you want someone, I'm afraid you have to act tonight. Tomorrow, I'm afraid it will be too late. After all, if we can receive this news, the prince can also." Prajna said
At this time, the Crown Prince did the same thing as Prince Yu. The Crown Prince directly ordered Xie Yu to arrest the person.

It can be said that both parties were well prepared. At this time, Qiu Yuan, the instigator of the incident, was sitting in the study, watching his father pacing back and forth in front of him with a smile.

"Yuan'er, although I know what you mean, but you are too embarrassed today, aren't you? This is not only about your face, but also the face of our Qiu family." Wen Yuanbo said

"Father, I told you before that this fireworks land has its own uses. Now I will throw Gong Yu out."

"Whether it's the Crown Prince or Prince Yu, if they want to win me over, they must first find Gong Yu. Whoever can find Gong Yu can win me over."

"Father, face? I am like an ant on a hot pot right now. I can't care about face or not." Qiu Yuan said with a smile

"Yes, I know all this, but why do you want to be enemies with Prince Ji today? Don't you know what position Prince Ji holds in His Majesty's heart?" Wen Yuanbo said.

"Father, how did I become enemies? I came back without saying anything, and I didn't even do anything tonight. Am I not giving the prince enough face?" Qiu Yuan asked back.
