Chapter 661 Threatening
The next morning, Luo Qingyan got up early and went to the pce. Yun Shang woke up just after Luo
Qingyan left. Yun Shang asked Qian Liu to help her with her dress and make-up. Then she asked the
butler to give her the ount books containing all things she should be in charge of in mansion.
Yun Shang got up early this morning. Although she was still sleepy, she started to look into the ount
books. But she didn''t know much about the expenses, so she asked Qin Yi and two madams to help. It
took her the whole morning to finish it.
After lunch, Yun Shang was about to have a rest when the butler ran over again. "Your Highness, Mr.
Wang and Mrs. Wang want to see you."
Yun Shang blinked, still confused, "Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang? Which Mr. Wang? "
"Wang Congwen, the richest man in the city." The butler hurriedly answered, "I heard that his highness
hurt Miss Wang in the pce yesterday morning. I guess that they are here for this.
"Haha..." Yun Shang grinned. She quickly came up with an idea. Yesterday Qian Zhuo told her that
Miss Wang must have been hurt badly by Luo Qingyan''s palm, so she had asked all the famous
doctors in the city. That was most likely why they came here today.
"Just tell them her highness is taking a nap. Let them wait. I have always felt that Miss Wang''s
arrogance is most likely due to her parents'' pampering. I don''t know how they teach her. She has no
excellent talents and good qualities. How could they let her out to harm others?" Qian Zhuo had a fit of
anger when she heard the parents of Miss Wang havee. She was still in a state of shock at the
thought that Yun Shang was almost pushed to the ground by the woman yesterday.
The butler gave a short pause, and looked at Yun Shang with hesitation.
Yun Shang thought for a while and said, "Tell them I''m taking a nap. We should teach them a lesson.
It''s them who are begging us, so we don''t need to be in a hurry. After reading the ount books the
whole morning, I can''t open my eyes any more. Let me sleep first."
The butler bowed to Yun Shang and left the hall.
Yun Shang raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned slightly. Then she stood up and went into
the inner room. She stretched out her hand an let Qian Zhuo and Qian Liu to take off her cape and
robe, as well as all the hair essories. After that, she went to the couch andy down on it.
"You can wake me up in one hour," Yun Shang ordered Qian Liu. Qian Liu extinguished the incense
beside her and left the inner room with Qian Zhuo.
An hourter, Qian Liu woke Yun Shang up on time. After freshening up, Yun Shang went to the garden
house with her maids and two madams.
She stopped at the door of the garden house and looked inside through the window. There were a
middle-aged man in his fifties and a woman in her forties. They both looked anxious and worried.
Thedy frequently looked at the door of the garden house. She frowned and said unhappily, "Your
lordship, Lady Rui is really arrogant. She has kept us waiting for almost two hours..."
Yun Shang smiled at Mrs. Wang''s words and stepped into the garden house."Mrs. Wang, if you think
I''m being arrogant, you can just leave. You don''t need to wait here. Our little mansion is too humble for
the richestdy in Jin city."
The two in the hall trembled at Yun Shang''s words. They turned to look at Yun Shang. Yun Shang had
a pretty face with a faint smile on her face, but her eyes were full of chilling coldness.
"Your Highness." Yun Shang went to the host seat and sat down. The two people in the hall looked at
each other and bowed to her in a hurry.
"You don''t have to bow to me. I can''t afford such courtesy." She smiled bitterly and looked at them
indifferently.
Hearing this, the two were even more uneasy. There were many rumors about Lady Rui, saying that
she was extremely beautiful, gentle and kind. Because of those rumors, the two of them regarded Lady
Rui as a macaroni person, but they didn''t expect that she was totally different from what the other
people said. Although only for a short while, even the sophisticated couple felt a little oppressed.
Though smiling mildly, Yun Shang''s words were sharp. The couple just didn''t know how to answer.
"Wee to our mansion. What can I do for you?" Qian Liu filled a cup of tea for Yun Shang. Yun

Shang picked it up and said indifferently.
"I''m sorry that my daughter spoke rudely to you. It''s my fault. I didn''t teach her well. His highness gave
you a hard p yesterday. I''ve invited almost all the well-known doctors in the city to check on her, but
they all failed. Now she is in aa. I want to call for the imperial physician to examine her, but the
imperial physicians refused to do so. I have no choice but toe here asking for your forgiveness..."
"Really?" Yun Shang smiled and turned to Wang Congwen, "Mr. Wang, you said your daughter spoke
rudely to me. Who told you about it? "
Wang Congwen didn''t expect Yun Shang would find the loophole in his words, so he was stunned
when Yun Shang asked him.
Yun Shang smiled again. "Have you forgotten who said that?"
With an embarrassed smile, Wang Congwen stammered, "The ser...servant who escorted my daughter
back home yesterday said that."
"Really?" Yun Shang put down the teacup and looked at the cup lid gently. She smiled, "If it''s true, I
suggest you to send the servant out of your mansion in case he will lie to you often. What happened in
the imperial garden yesterday was seen by many servants. You can ask some at will. I also have some
questions to ask you. "
Hardly had Wang Congwen said yes, Yun Shang went on, "I want to know who is in charge of
educating your daughter. How could she be so rude? And she even said that she was the only one who
deserved to be Lady Rui. I just asked my maid to teach her a lesson when I was in the Ling Yin
Temple, but I didn''t expect her to go further and acted so recklessly in the pce. "
"I wouldn''t mind if she was just being mean. I''m not a narrow minded woman. But when everyone knew
I''m pregnant, she dared to jump at me, intending to hurt my baby. As a respectable person in the city,
Mr. Wang must know what crime it was. If it were not for his highness who came in time and saved me,
I wouldn''t be here talking to you today. Do you think I should forgive the one who intend to murder me
and my baby?" Yun Shang said coldly. Hearing her words, Wang Congwen quietly bowed his head.
"Nian''er didn''t do it on purpose..." Mrs. Wang, who was standing next to Mr. Wang, hurried to exin.
But there was a guilty look in her eyes.
"Didn''t do it on purpose?" Yun Shang couldn''t help but burst intoughter after she repeated the words,
"Mrs. Wang, what you said is interesting. How can you cover the truth with saying she didn''t do it on
purpose? Is it that simple? If Miss Wang assassinates the emperor, would she im that she didn''t do it
on purpose to make everyone forgive her? "
Mrs. Wang wanted to say something more, but Wang Congwen pulled her sleeve ang cast her a re.
Then she said nothing.
"Please forgive us, your highness." Wang Congwen suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to
Yun Shang. "I''m sorry, your highness. Nian''er is the youngest daughter of mine. She was spoiled by us
in childhood and has turned into a person like this. We deserve it for what we have done. I''ll ask
someone to teach her to behave well after she gets recovered. I promise. Please forgive us and spare
her life. "
Yun Shang looked at Wang Congwen in silence and drank the tea with a smile. But he kept bending
over the ground and didn''t speak again. Yun Shang thought for a while and smiled. "I can spare her life
and send for an imperial physician to examine her."
Wang Congwen raised his head and said in surprise, "Thank you very much, your highness."
"It''s too early to say thanks. I can spare her life, but I have one condition." Yun Shang shed a
cunning smile.
Wang Congwen froze and thought for a while before he said, "Your Highness, what do you want from
me?"
"The condition..." Yun Shang smiled and looked at the cherry tree in the yard outside. After a long
silence, she said, "Your Highness should know that Prince Rui and I don''t have a stable foundation in
the State of Xia as we have been here only for a short time. Besides, we didn''t prepare well when we
leave the State of Ning. Now, we have some difficulties. We have spent a lot of money on running our
mansion. We''re really running out of money now. Mr. Wang, to tell you the truth, we don''t have any
decent ornaments."
Wang Shun Qing listened quietly, with blue veins standing out on his forehead.
Yun Shang paused for a while and said, "It is said that you are the richest man in Jin city and owns a
great deal of property. I am not that kind of person who ask for too much. I just hope that you can offer
one fifth of your property to Prince Rui''s mansion."
There was sweat oozing from his forehead, but he kept silent.
Yun Shang smiled and said in a casual tone, "You could just ignore it. But if so, Miss Wang... There''s
nothing I can do about her. You have another daughter in the imperial household. Is she Lady Xian? I
heard that his majesty hasn''t been to her pce for a long time. Oh, have you heard that the emperor
himself has given the imperial guard token to Prince Rui a few days ago. If you give one fifth of your
family property to Prince Rui''s mansion, they would naturally be in the same boat, but if... " Yun Shang
smiled without saying anything.
Wang Congwen clenched his teeth. After a while, he said word by word, "Your Highness, I will consider
it. But I wish Prince Rui could marry my daughter..."
