She looked up and glanced at Wang Qinian.
"Brother Wang, would you like a bowl?"
Wang Qinian chuckled and waved his hand.
"No need, no need, I've already had breakfast."
Although he refused verbally, his throat betrayed him by swallowing hard.
Su Yu gave a soft "oh".
He then smiled and asked.
"You really don't need it?"
Wang Qinian chuckled and bowed in greeting.
"Then, thank you for your kindness, Brother Su."
"I, Wang, will humbly comply!"
After saying that, he chuckled and pulled up a chair for himself, sitting down next to Su Yu.
Su Yu glanced at Dong'er, who smiled slightly, brushed her shoulders, and took her leave.
A little while later, another bowl was brought over.
Su Yu and Wang Qinian then sat down together and began to enjoy the delicious porridge.
A short while later, Wang Qinian pulled out a thin piece of paper from his pocket.
He took it out and handed it to Su Yu, smiling slightly.
"Brother Su, I have something to show you."
Su Yu raised an eyebrow and glanced at it.
It was a newspaper.
It records scenic spots and historical sites from various places, as well as biographies of figures from previous dynasties.
And the page that occupies the largest portion of the layout.
The edges were decorated with lace patterns resembling flowing clouds.
It turned out to be some news articles.
Su Yu was slightly taken aback. This...gossip?
I glanced at it again and saw what was written on it.
It is not the Bagua of the neighboring Northern Qi and Dongyi cities.
It concerns the private lives of many officials in the capital of Qing Kingdom.
For example, why is the commander of the Kyoto Garrison Division missing a front tooth?
A military academy official was brutally beaten by his domineering wife!
The current prime minister, the head of all civil officials, has an illegitimate daughter!
Seeing this, Su Yu finally understood why Prime Minister Lin had said that day.
In a few days, everyone will know about his affair with Wan'er.
Thinking of Wan'er, Su Yu's brows twitched slightly.
It's time to make a trip to the Royal Villa.
Chapter Ninety-Four: A Wife, Raised from Childhood! A consultation fee of ten thousand taels? Old Wang was thrilled, utterly envious! (Please subscribe! Please subscribe to the entire book!)
Su Yu looked at the newspaper in her hand and couldn't help but chuckle a few times.
Why is the commander of the Kyoto Garrison Division missing a front tooth?
There's no need to look into it closely; Su Yu already knows about it.
Su Yu looked up, the image already appearing in her mind.
It was simply on a sunny morning.
A beautiful woman arrived in Kyoto with her blind servant.
As a result, when they entered the city gate, they were stopped by Ye Zhong, the current garrison commander of Kyoto.
Ye Zhong asked the woman to open the box on her back so he could inspect it.
Obviously, the woman refused the request.
The contents of that box cannot be shown to just anyone.
That's a deadly weapon.
Ye Zhong immediately flew into a rage and drew his sword to seize the man.
That woman was never one to suffer a loss.
When the two sides clash, there will inevitably be injuries.
Of course, it could only be that Ye was seriously injured.
Although Ye Zhong was already considered a master at that time.
There were many of his guards at the city gate.
But even all of these combined weren't enough for the blind servant to hit with one hand.
In an instant, everyone collapsed to the ground screaming in agony.
No one saw how the blind man made his move.
At the suggestion of the beautiful young woman.
The blind man pinned Ye Zhong down, and the young woman personally took over, giving him a severe beating.
In the end, Lord Ye's head swelled up into a pig's head.
The front tooth in his mouth was also nowhere to be found.
This incident caused quite a stir in Kyoto back then.
After all, this Lord Ye comes from a family of martial arts masters and is exceptionally skilled.
Moreover, he holds an important position and his status is not low.
Most importantly, he also has an uncle who is known as the number one swordsman in the Qing Kingdom.
This guy actually got beaten up like a pig's head by a woman!
One of my front teeth is gone!
It's truly astonishing and exciting.
And they were curious about who this woman was.
After Lord Ye was beaten and sent back, will he go to his uncle to complain?
What will happen next?
The Eight Trigrams are inherent in human nature.
And indeed, things turned out exactly as they had hoped.
Upon learning that his nephew had been beaten, Ye Liuyun immediately made a statement.
I'm going to find that woman and cause her trouble, to get justice for my nephew.
He then followed through on his word, storming angrily into Taiping Villa.
And the result, well, you can imagine.
Ye Liuyun was mercilessly beaten by the blind man and thrown out.
As a result, Ye Zhong not only failed to get justice.
Despite the pressure, I revisited Taiping Villa.
Despite his lisp, he went to serve tea to the young woman and apologized.
Thus, the matter ultimately ended with both Ye's uncle and nephew being beaten.
The common people were discussing this matter extensively, drinking alcohol and tea.
I watched the whole thing with great interest.
However, after many days at the city gate, Lord Ye had not appeared.
Thus, the incident of beating people at the city gate came to an end.
Su Yu glanced at the news section with its flowing, colorful borders and found it to be largely the same.
Su Yu recalled that there was actually more to this story.
It is related to the cultivation of a grandmaster.
Ye Liuyun, the always proud martial arts prodigy.
He was furious and deeply hurt after being beaten by the blind man.
He returned to the Sword Pavilion and secluded himself for six months, practicing swordsmanship while covered by a black cloth.
But they found that they simply couldn't train to achieve the speed and accuracy of a blind person.
In a fit of anger, he threw the sword away and declared that he would never use a sword again in his life.
But young people, sometimes to achieve something, you have to have a strong will.
Afterwards, he did gain some new insights and developed his own simple and elegant style of freehand flowing movements.
This could be considered a blessing in disguise.
Su Yu glanced at the rest of the gossip.
These are all private and interesting anecdotes from the homes of Kyoto officials.
As he watched, the porridge in his bowl seemed to smell even better.
Wang Qinian, who was standing to the side, would occasionally peek over to take a look.
