Yu w.a.n.g came to the Su family residence with his bodyguard who looked strong and invincible. They all rode warhorses that had huge statures. Accustomed to struggling on the battlefield, their momentum was very pressing on the residents who roamed around watching their arrival. The Su family's residence is in an area where many ministers live, so many people are hanging around. Yu w.a.n.g's arrival at the Su family's residence made everyone think that Yu w.a.n.g had come to visit his in-laws.
Yu Fengyao looked at the gate that had a 'Su family residence' placard hanging there. The plaque looked expensive, not so different from his image of the behaviour of most members of this family. The Su family had been a part of the upper-cla.s.s aristocrats, but they did not have much wealth due to the extravagant behaviour of their members. Since Su Gaishan married his wife, the family's finances have changed for the better. But, it looks like Madam Xu; his late mother-in-law raised white wolves with her hands, according to the information he got.
"Yu w.a.n.g-"
Patriarch Su welcomed the arrival of Yu w.a.n.g and his entourage. Although the Su family was a high-cla.s.s aristocratic family, they were still far behind the royal family, so Su Lingdao was obliged to accept the arrival of Yu w.a.n.g personally.
This was the first time Yu Fengyao meeting directly with this Patriarch Su. Usually, Yu w.a.n.g just gazed fleetingly from a long distance to see this old man. Seeing the calculating gaze flas.h.i.+ng from his eyes, Yu w.a.n.g intended to investigate the old man who looked like a gentleman. For some reason, he felt this man was far from a gentleman according to his acute instincts.
Receiving Patriarch Su's greeting, Yu w.a.n.g only nodded slowly. Su Lingdao who only received a nod from Yu w.a.n.g felt that Yu w.a.n.g was not easily approached. Inviting Yu w.a.n.g to enter, Su Lingdao walked alongside the young prince and took him to the main hall of Su's residence. Walking elegantly, Yu w.a.n.g walked into the s.p.a.cious residence of Su while looking around. Along the way, Yu w.a.n.g could see the luxury that was displayed in this residence. The thought of how much profit his wife's inherited stores used by the Su family made Yu w.a.n.g squeeze his hand which was placed behind him.
All this should also have adorned his wife's private courtyard at the Su family's residence. But, from the information he got, Su Qingyi never received the slightest profit that could have been used by the young woman to beautify her courtyard.
Arriving at the main hall, Yu w.a.n.g sat in the main crafted wooden chair by climbing three small wooden steps, Su Lingdao sat on the chair next to him. Some elders sat on simple wooden chairs some distance away. n.o.body refused the seat arrangement that happened because the royal family had to always sit on the main seat based on their social standing. Tea and snacks were served shortly after they all sat down. From the fragrance of tea and snacks provided, Yu w.a.n.g knew that they were expensive.
Drinking the tea provided, Yu w.a.n.g seemed relaxed, making Patriarch Su curious about the purpose of Yu w.a.n.g's arrival at Su's residence, feeling impatient.
"Can this old man know the purpose of Yu w.a.n.g's arrival at Su's residence?"
Glancing at Patriarch Su who looked curious and impatient, Yu w.a.n.g said coldly; "If there is no business, this Prince can not visit this place?"
"Ah, of course not. We from the Su family will always welcome Yu w.a.n.g to come here."
Hearing Patriarch Su's words that seemed to wants to flatter Yu w.a.n.g, Yu Fengyao just looked away.
"This prince has some business this time so come visit this place."
Yu w.a.n.g gave Patriarch Su a flat expression, making Su Lingdao feel a bad feeling.
"Yu w.a.n.g can tell us your intention to come here easily. We will try to satisfy you."
Staring sharply around and made all the elders present including Patriarch Su feel the strength stored in Yu w.a.n.g. They all broke out in cold sweat at that look. Satisfied to see everyone who was intimidated by him, Yu w.a.n.g took out several pieces of paper and gave them to Patriarch Su. Su Lingdao received the stack of paper and immediately saw it. Reading through all the contents of the pile of paper, Su Lingdao's face turned grim and rather pale.
"Now you know why this Prince came here, right? How do you take responsibility for all of that?"
Hearing Yu w.a.n.g's question, Su Lingdao knew that the arrival of Yu w.a.n.g would put the Su family in big trouble if he did not handle it well.
"Hurry! Call Su Zhuanjin's wife; Hong Tiaoqing here!"
Su Zhuanjin courtyard has four small courtyard areas which are divided into Su Zhuanjin's private courtyard, Hong Tiaoqing's, his son; Su Mingze's place, his daughter; Su Mingmei's place. The arrival of the patriarch Su's servant to called his wife and meet the guest of honour who came to the Su family known by Su Zhuanjin easily. This man has spies around the elders and also Patriarch Su. Even though Patriarch Su was his biological father, Su Zhuanjin kept spying there. His carelessness of not putting a spy there before making him lose the chance to get what he wanted.
"Second Master, your father calls your wife to meet the guests who come."
"En, is Yu w.a.n.g's the one that coming?"
Su Zhuanjin's manservant nodded in agreement.
"Are you not going to help your wife?"
"Hmph! That woman is looking for trouble herself, why should I help her?"
The manservant became speechless. The second master was still hating his legitimate wife for killing the woman he loved because she was jealous of her.
"Are you not worried that Patriarch Su will punish the madam severely?"
"Hmph, my father will not get rid of Hong Tiaoqing that easily. He needs that stupid woman to continue to interfere with Uncle Su Yanjiu's descendants. He never liked his younger brother who was much smarter than him and became an important minister in the government."
Watching from a distance the figure of his wife who followed Patriarch Su servant towards the main hall, Su Zhuanjin said nothing.
