Chapter 421: Chapter 421 Entering The Capital For A Reward (15)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Third Prince noticed Yang Wanning, who was dressed luxuriously, and the detained scholar being carried on Zhou Ying’s back. “Doctor Gu, what’s going on?” he asked Gu Chengrui.
Gu Chengrui did not hide anything and told him everything he had seen and done.
The Third Prince understood what was happening and knew this was a dispute between women.
It was just difficult to identify the woman who was plotting all of this.
He looked at the scholar and said coldly, “A scholar, yet a scourge. Just kill him.”
When the soldier holding the scholar raised his sword, the scholar was so terrified that he peed his pants. He would have collapsed on the ground if he hadn’t been propped up forcefully.
Just when he thought he was going to die…
Yang Wanning, who was on Zhou Ying’s back, woke up. After understanding what happened, she said, “Third Prince, please spare his life.”
“You two…” Gu Chengrui looked at her in surprise.
“He can’t die yet. Otherwise, he won’t be able to testify for his crimes.” After Yang Wanning finished speaking, she fainted again.
“Alright, drag him back.” Seeing this, the Third Prince knew she had decided, so he did not interfere and ordered the convoy to continue their journey.
Zhou Ying saw this and immediately carried Yang Wanning back to the carriage while Gu Chengrui got on after them.
As for the scholar, he was tied up and dragged forward by the soldiers like a dog.
Around noon, they finally arrived outside the capital.
The person who welcomed them was Eunuch Li. When he saw them arrive, he immediately approached them and greeted them. “Welcome back, Third Prince.”
“Eunuch Li, please, get up. 1 wonder what Father intended with these sweet potatoes?” The Third Prince got off the carriage and helped him up.
“The Emperor intends to let me store the seeds in the imperial manor for now. After planting a batch, we will spread the seeds near the capital. Thus, these seeds don’t need to enter the royal palace.”
“I’ll leave them to Eunuch Li.” The Third Prince nodded.
After saying that, he picked ten elite soldiers and said to the rest, “The rest of the brothers, bring the sweet potatoes to the imperial manor and have a good rest there. 1’11 inform more specific arrangements tomorrow morning.”
“Yes.” The general immediately nodded.
When the Third Prince saw this, he asked Gu Chengrui to explain in detail to Eunuch Li how to grow and preserve the sweet potatoes.
It would be troublesome if it froze due to the cold weather.
At the same time, he also sent two soldiers to detain the scholar at a manor in the suburbs.
After explaining everything clearly, the Third Prince brought Gu Chengrui, Zhou Ying, and ten elite soldiers back to his royal residence.
Zhou Huaiming, who was waiting at the entrance, saw them and greeted them with a smile, “You guys have finally arrived.”
“Brother Zhou, you are here.” Gu Chengrui smiled and greeted him.
“Yeah, I just returned. I heard you were coming to the capital, so I rushed back early to meet you.”
“It’s indeed been a while. We have to have a good drink later.”
As for the Third Prince, he first asked the head butler to call two women over after he got off the carriage. One carried Yang Wanning, while the other helped Zhou Ying carry her luggage to the guest courtyard.
“Cousin, help me entertain our guest. 1 need to change my clothes and head to the palace.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of them.” Zhou Huai Ming quickly replied.
After saying that, all of them entered the courtyard residence.
However, they separated after a fork.
The Third Prince went straight to the central courtyard at the third entrance, while Zhou Huaiming brought Gu Chengrui and Zhou Ying to the guest courtyard at the second entrance..
