Chapter 20 Red Smoke
In the end, Dongfang Jingyao took Shang Zhengyu to King Jing's mansion. Shang Zhengyu was no stranger to this mansion, after all, she had been here once.

Dongfang Jingyao looked at Shang Zhengyu standing at the door, took her hand and walked inside.

Shang Zhengyu looked at the hands held by the two, his eyes moved slightly, and then he pretended to be casual and pulled away from Dongfang Jingyao's palm.

Dongfang Jingyao didn't say anything, and walked in side by side with her.

As soon as the two of them entered, the maids and servants who stood neatly in two rows saluted respectfully, "See His Royal Highness King Jing."

Dongfang Jingyao waved his hand casually and led Shang Zhengyu into the hall.

Seeing the figures of the two slowly leaving, everyone present widened their eyes in surprise. Dongfang Jingyao had never brought any woman to the mansion, but now he brought the same woman in twice, which made them guess that the two human relationship.

If they knew that the woman in front of them was the business lady who turned from a goddess to a silly girl, their eyes would pop out of surprise. Unfortunately, since Shang Zhengyu was stupid, he almost stayed in the mansion, so these are basically the same as None of the servants of Prince Jing's mansion, who were isolated from the world, knew the identity of Shang Zhengyu.

One of the women, who seemed to be the leader, looked at the people whispering to each other with a look of anger on her face, and shouted: "What nonsense, hurry up and go to work."

Everyone seemed to be very afraid of this woman, and they all dispersed to do their own things.

This woman's name is Hong Yan, and she has worked in King Jing's Mansion for the longest time. Because she is quite skilled and smart, she likes Dongfang Jingyao the most, but she is arrogant, and she treats everyone like Dongfang Jingyao. Because of her cold appearance, everyone in the house is very afraid of her.

Seeing that Dongfang Jingyao brought that woman back to the mansion just now, and the two were still so close, she felt as uncomfortable as a needle prick in her heart. She was used to Dongfang Jingyao being the only one by her side.

Dongfang Jingyao took Shang Zhengyu to the hall, asked the maid to pour her a cup of tea, and then told Shang Zhengyu that he had to leave first and asked her to wait for a while.

After Dongfang Jingyao left, Shang Zhengyu played with the teacup boredly and looked around casually.

It's just that after a long time, Dongfang Jingyao didn't show up, so Shang Zhengyu had no choice but to stand up and walk to a maid and asked, "How long will it be before Dongfang Jingyao comes back?"

But before the servant girl could reply, an extremely cold voice sounded from behind her——

"How dare you call His Royal Highness King Jing's name directly, you are looking for death."

As soon as the words fell, Shang Zhengyu felt a sharp pain in her back, and then she fell heavily to the ground, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out of her mouth.

Shang Zhengyu was full of anger, she was provoking someone, she just called Dongfang Jingyao's name and was treated like this, it seems that places like King Jing's Mansion are out of reach for a lowly person like her.

Shang Zhengyu struggled to stand up from the ground, but he was powerless.

Suddenly her body was lifted up horizontally, and a nervous and concerned voice rang in her ears, "Xiao Yudian, are you okay?"

No wonder it's nothing, he thought everyone was like his hard-charging person.

Seeing the dissatisfaction in Shang Zhengyu's eyes, Dongfang Jingyao stopped talking, and carefully put Shang Zhengyu on the chair, and then he sat next to her, and then his eyes fell coldly on the dull red smoke body.

"It seems that the king has been too kind recently."

The words that were as cold as ten thousand years made Hong Yan's body tremble, and then she knelt down heavily on the ground, her voice trembling, "I know my mistake, Your Highness please punish me."

Dongfang Jingyao didn't speak, just waved his hand, and saw Hong Yan's body flying out of the door, and fell heavily on the ground, with blood streaming from her mouth, and her arm, which was intact just now, was lying peacefully not far away.
