Hong Tiaoqing who got a summon from his father-in-law to come see him in the Main Hall walks in a hurry looked confused. This elegant-looking woman looks seductive despite being neatly dressed and luxurious. All the women from the inner courtyard rarely welcomed the guest of honor who was welcomed in the main hall of Su"s residence. Getting a summon from her father-in-law to meet him there, was very unexpected to her. This call made her feel some bad feelings. Unfortunately this coquetish woman could not refuse to fulfill this summon.

Walking as fast as this married woman could, she reached the main hall while breathing heavily. Stopping in front of the main hall"s door, Hong Tiaoqing took a deep breath to control her nervousness. Whatever happens this woman must not look nervous. Marrying in the Su family made her unable to show any weakness because in this place many wolves were waiting for her unguarded.

"Patriach, Su Zhuanjin"s wife has arrived. She is waiting to be invited in the front." the manservant whispered softly to Patriach Su, informing the arrival of Second Madam of the third generation.

"Tell the woman to come in!"

The sound of slow steps of an adult woman wearing fleeting robes could be heard echoing in the large and s.p.a.cious main hall. Soon everyone there saw a woman in her thirties move with great fascination. The woman looked like she was still in her early twenties quite different from most married women looks. The seductive face and full of charm makes many men there look interested. Hong Tiaoqing knew that her body had such a great attraction towards the opposite s.e.x that why she learned to use it when she was growing up.

Living and growing up in a family of merchants who came from middle cla.s.s made this woman want to climb even higher so she learned to use her appeal to lure men from the upper cla.s.ses of n.o.bility. Realizing her ambition to be able to lure high-cla.s.s aristocratic men, Hong Tiaoqing learned how to lure men from famous prost.i.tutes in secret, no one knows it.

"Patriach-"

A soft, seductive voice was heard in the Hall that made all men swallow hard except Yu w.a.n.g who stared coldly at the woman. Yu Fengyao could feel the hair on his body standing up because of the made up soft voice. This prince looks like he wants to hit the mouth that emits that sound.

"Kneel!"

Patriach Su could feel the cold emanating from the young prince who sat beside him when he saw the arrival of Hong Tiaoqing. This cold is very pressing.

Hong Tiaoqing looked surprised at the order from Patriach Su. This father-in-law is usually quite gentle with her. Glancing at her father-in-law, Hong Tiaoqing saw the man look so grim and serious that this woman was forced to sit on her knees looking like a weak, submissive woman trying to soften her in-laws" att.i.tude.

"Patriach, why did you call this weak woman?" Hong Tiaoqing tried to find out.

Patriach Su glanced at Yu w.a.n.g who stared back sharply. Coughing, Patriach Su threw the pile of paper that Yu w.a.n.g had given him. The papers contain evidences of the attack sent by Hong Tiaoqing on Yu w.a.n.gfei.


Confused, Hong Tiaoqing took the scattered paper and read it. The more this woman reads it, the more pale her face. She could not believe that in these papers, the evidence she had clean up before was clearly written.

"Patriach, this is all a lie."

Hong Tiaoqing tried not to acknowledge everything recorded there. This woman could not admit it, trying to hurt the royal family could get her severely punished.

"So, Second Madam accused this Prince of making false reports?!"

A cold voice pierced out from the mouth of the young man with an attractive look sitting next to Patriach Su, making Hong Tiaoqing who had noticed the handsome man"s presence, frowning at him. Hong Tiaoqing did not understand why this young man seemed unhappy with her until she heard the young man calling himself a prince.

"Yu w.a.n.g?!"

Hong Tiaoqing looked surprised at the ident.i.ty of the handsome man who had makes her attracted. This married woman did not expect that the person who brought all this evidence about her attack was Yu w.a.n.g himself.

"It"s good that Second Madam seems to recognizes this Prince."

Hong Tiaoqing was speechless at the cynical tone in Yu w.a.n.g"s voice. He could not possibly accuse that all the evidence given by Yu w.a.n.g was a lie because it was not possible.

Brak!

"Still haven"t confessed your mistake?! Yu w.a.n.g gave all the reports, it can"t be all lies! How dare you try to attack Yu w.a.n.g"s legal wife?!"

Patriach Su immediately scolded Hong Tiaoqing so that this stupid woman would not continue to dodge the crime. This old man could not let this kneeling woman continue to avoid her mistakes, Yu w.a.n.g could be furious. Su Lingdao realized bitterly that if Yu w.a.n.g wanted to rummage through this place even the ancestors of the Su family could not fight him. This young prince is too strong for all of them.

Feeling the pressure of strength emanating from Yu w.a.n.g made Su Lingdao realize that the Imperial family had power beyond the Su family. So far, Su Lingdao thought that the ancestors of the Su family had the strength that was equal to the royal family, but seeing Yu w.a.n.g, he was forced to swallow bitterness pil.

"Hmph! Of course this woman won"t admit to having sent a.s.sasins to attack my wife, it seems like this woman still wants to live long." Yu w.a.n.g was seen scoffing at the seductive woman who was still kneeling.

"Yu-Yu w.a.n.g, you certainly won"t send her to prison for the crime this woman committed." Patriach Su seemed to want to correct the mistakes made by Hong Tiaoqing. If this woman goes to prison, the Su family can be embarra.s.sed.

"Why do you think this prince came with all the evidences and showed you when this prince can send all of them to the justice court? This Prince is not interested in sending this woman to prison. If this happens, this prince face can be tainted too."

"Of course, of course. So, how does Yu w.a.n.g want to solve this?"

"Of course you must compensate for everything this woman has done."

"Compensation? Of course the Su family will provide compensation as Yu w.a.n.g wants."

Patriach Su looks relieved because all this can be resolved properly. They could not refuse Yu w.a.n.g"s demands.

"Good. This is all the compensations this prince wants."

Yu Fengyao gave all the records regarding all of Su Qingyi"s heritage shops that were taken by Su"s family before. Reading the notes given by w.a.n.g w.a.n.g made Patriach Su look very grim.

"Yu w.a.n.g, this is-"

"What? Does Patriach Su not want to give it?"

Swallowing hard, Su Lingdao was eager to refuse, but looked at Yu w.a.n.g who was starting to look displeased, he could not do it.

"Hmph! You should feel thankful that this Prince only asks for all of the shops to be returned and does not ask you to return all the profits that you all have taken over the years. Don"t think that this Prince doesn"t know how much profit you all have taken from there. If this prince wants to find out about it, it"s very easy. This prince can also makes some report to the Emperor to complaint about all this."

Hearing the implicit threat in Yu w.a.n.g"s words, made Patriach Su forced to approve it.

"Alright, Yu w.a.n.g, I will immediately take care of returning these heritage shops."

"Don"t make this prince wait long. Also don"t make other side plans about all of the stores, or you will find out how this Prince takes care of everything with an iron fist."

After taking care of everything, Yu Fengyao was not interested in staying longer at the Su family"s residence. Even though the Su family"s home looks luxurious but their home decoration looks too gaudy for him. Yu Fengyao prefers decorations arranged directly by his wife, feels comfortable and is like a home not just a display.

"Second Master, Yu w.a.n.g has left." reported manservant to Su Zhuanjin.

"En."

Su Zhuanjin did not seem interested in hearing the news of Yu w.a.n.g"s departure. He knows that the prince won"t be here long. The prince must only intend to warn the Su family not to bother his wife anymore because it concerns his pride as the only Grand Marshal of Zi Empire.
