After enjoying the breakfast provided at the dining table, Yu Fengyao told the waiter to clean the dining table and ask for tea to be served. He enjoyed the tea his Imperial brother had given him from the royal tribute. This tea can be enjoyed by his Imperial brother only. But, because the Emperor knew he liked good tea, Yu Fengyan gave him a lot of tea."w.a.n.gye, you must leave for the Palace immediately for the morning court, or you will be late."
Seeing that w.a.n.gye looked so relaxed when he had to go to morning court, Butler Chen was forced to remind the prince. Although he was pleased to see that w.a.n.gye was deliberately lingering at w.a.n.gfei"s residence, Butler Chen could not let w.a.n.gye get bad reviews from the ministers. w.a.n.gye recently returned to Capital city, he must maintain his good name.
"Yes, this w.a.n.gye knows."
Yu Fengyao got up and intended to go to work to attend the morning court. But, before he walked some distance, Su Qingyi called him back. Turning and staring at his wife, Yu Fengyao waited for his wife who looked more attractive than before to speak.
"w.a.n.gye, can this w.a.n.gfei ask permission to go out of w.a.n.gfu?"
"What for?"
"This w.a.n.gfei wants to see the shops this wife brought as a dowry."
Yu Fengyao knew that Su Qingyi had several shops with large income for her dowry when he married her. But, as far as Yu w.a.n.g knew, the profits from the shops must have been in the pockets of the greedy people in the Su family.
The shops owned by Su Qingyi are part of very large income stores. The Su family would not want to give up the profits from the shops back to Su Qingyi. They will surely give many problems to his wife later. Yu Fengyao must provide some guards to follow his wife.
"Alright, this w.a.n.gye gave you permission to check the shops, but w.a.n.gfei must bring the bodyguards this prince gave you for some protection."
Su Qingyi smiled sweetly at him because she heard that he had several guards to protect her. Su Qingyi was suspicious that w.a.n.gye was worried about her safety.
This young lady was also a bit worried at the thought of taking over her mother"s shops which had now become her dowry. She knew how many greedy people in the Su family. They have been taking overall profits from the shops since her mother died. There was never a penny of money distributed to her from the profits of the shops. Su Qingyi could guess where the profits of the shops had flowed.
With help from her husband; Yu w.a.n.g, Su Qingyi has strong support from her husband who is one of the men who has power over the Su family. They will be easier to be intimidated using their husband"s name later. Thinking about that possibility, made Su Qingyi feel happy.
"This w.a.n.gfei is grateful for w.a.n.gye"s care."
After saying all that and having Butler Chen prepare several bodyguards with sufficiently high martial arts abilities for his wife, Yu Fengyao went to attend the morning court at the Palace.
"w.a.n.gfei, are you serious about taking over the profits of your mother"s heritage stores? It"s been so long the Su"s family taken all the profits."
Nanny Mo looked worried thinking about the actions that her young mistress would get if she intended to take over the profits that had been taken by the Su family members. They all certainly would not accept that w.a.n.gfei took over all the profits from the shops. Nanny Mo knew that the profits from the shops were used by the Su family to support their luxurious lifestyle after the death of w.a.n.gfei"s mother.
"Nanny Mo, you know that they"ve been using the profits of mom"s heritage stores for their lavish lifestyle while this w.a.n.gfei, who is the heir of all those shops, leads a miserable life. It"s time for them to return all of w.a.n.gfei"s inheritance."
"But, w.a.n.gfei the Su family will refuse to give away your inheritance."
"Nanny Mo, don"t forget that now w.a.n.gfei is the wife of Yu w.a.n.g."
Butler Chen could not bear to partic.i.p.ate in the conversation between w.a.n.gfei and the old maid when he met w.a.n.gfei together with a group of bodyguards directly elected by w.a.n.gye to accompany his wife at any time. This bodyguard group was part of w.a.n.gye"s elite bodyguard and he gave ten of his people to his wife.
"Butler Chen, when did you get here? This w.a.n.gfei thought you would come a little later after sending off w.a.n.gye"s."
"Yes, w.a.n.gfei. This old eunuch had just escorted w.a.n.gye away from the gate. w.a.n.gye told this old eunuch to immediately send a group of personal guards chosen directly by w.a.n.gye to w.a.n.gfei."
"Oh, very fast. This w.a.n.gfei didn"t expect that w.a.n.gye would give some bodyguards from his elite bodyguards" entourage to me. This lady feels honoured."
"Of course w.a.n.gye is willing to send them to w.a.n.gfei. After all, w.a.n.gfei is Yu w.a.n.g"s only legitimate wife. w.a.n.gfei"s safety is very important to w.a.n.gye."
"In that case, this w.a.n.gfei can go out now with them."
"Of course, w.a.n.gfei. This old eunuch has prepared w.a.n.gfu"s horse-drawn carriage to be used by w.a.n.gfei on your way."
Su Qingyi brought her maids to accompany them. Together with a group of guards, the maids, Su Qingyi, were escorted by Butler Chen to the main gate of w.a.n.gfu. In front of the gate, a horse carriage made of luxury wood and has the symbol of Yu w.a.n.gfu which is a sword and shield in a blazing fire parked there. The driver sat in the front of the horse-drawn carriage, two dark brown horses pulled the luxurious cart.
"w.a.n.gfei, this horse-drawn carriage was sent this morning by the Emperor as a wedding gift for w.a.n.gfei. w.a.n.gfei can use it for your carriage."
"This horse-drawn carriage seems expensive."
"Of course, this horse-drawn carriage is sent directly by the Emperor. You don"t need to worry, w.a.n.gye received this horse-drawn carriage so you could use it to travel."
