As Ye Li described, Su Yourong couldn't help but frown.
This person… how does he feel a bit like Shen Jing?
As this thought appeared, Su Yourong's heart suddenly jolted.
No way?
Could it be that Shen Jing's sudden illness is related to Princess Qinghe's visit?
Is he afraid that Princess Qinghe will recognize him, so he's deliberately faking illness?
The more Su Yourong thought about it, the more she felt it was possible, so she picked up her brush to draw while asking Ye Li, "How did this person offend the princess?"
"Don't even mention it, just thinking about that scoundrel makes me angry!"
Ye Li said, fuming, "That scoundrel is utterly shameless, he bullied me, and then impersonated someone else, causing me to arrest the wrong person…"
Ye Li was also too embarrassed to say that the scoundrel had spanked her, so she could only give a vague account, then urged Su Yourong to quickly help her draw.
Su Yourong nodded gently, thinking more and more that this scoundrel was Shen Jing.
She didn't know about other aspects, but Shen Jing was definitely shameless enough!
That scoundrel!
Su Yourong cursed him inwardly and continued drawing.
As Su Yourong kept working the brush, a face gradually appeared on the drawing paper.
However, this person was not Shen Jing.
"No, this…"
Ye Li looked at the person on the drawing paper in confusion.
How come the person she drew also looked similar to Zhao Ying?
At this moment, Ye Li was a bit disoriented.
Was there a problem with her description?
She even almost suspected that the scoundrel in the alley was really Zhao Ying.
Did that scoundrel really look so much like Zhao Ying?
Or was that scoundrel Zhao Ying's twin brother or something?
"Princess, what's wrong?"
Su Yourong asked Ye Li, feigning confusion.
"This person is Zhao Ying, right?"
Ye Li pointed at the drawing paper and asked with a frown.
"Hmm? This… indeed looks a bit like Zhao Ying."
Su Yourong nodded gently, "Why, does the princess also know Zhao Ying?"
"Of course I know him!"
Ye Li said, exasperated, "That scoundrel impersonated Zhao Ying, which is why I sent people to arrest Zhao Ying and gave him twenty lashes…"
"Ah?"
Su Yourong's face twitched violently.
That scoundrel impersonated Zhao Ying?
So, Zhao Ying was arrested by the princess's people?
And the Song and Zhao families thought it was her mother who had him arrested, which is why they came to beg for mercy?
Case closed!
That scoundrel must be Shen Jing!
"That person is definitely not Zhao Ying!"
Ye Li didn't explain much, pointing at the drawing paper and saying, "Make these eyes a little more sinister."
"Alright!"
Su Yourong started drawing again.
Ye Li quickly noticed something was wrong, "I said the eyes should be sinister, the sinister of evil, not the slanted of tilted!"
After that, Ye Li began to make corrections based on Zhao Ying's appearance.
"Make the face a bit thicker."
"Princess, how do you draw a thick face? A person's face can't be like fruit peel, can it?"
"I don't mean that kind of thick, it's just… it's bad, the kind that means ill will…"
Ye Li continuously guided Su Yourong to make corrections.
However, no matter how Su Yourong drew, she couldn't fully capture the scoundrel's appearance.
Sometimes this wasn't right, sometimes that wasn't right.
Originally, that scoundrel looked quite presentable, but now Su Yourong had almost drawn him into a demon!
Finally, Ye Li reluctantly gave up, slumping down in her seat.
Why was it so difficult to draw that scoundrel's face?
Su Yourong gave Ye Li an apologetic look, then asked in confusion, "Princess, what exactly did this scoundrel do to you?"
"I…"
Ye Li hesitated, then shook her head, "Forget it, forget it, I get angry just thinking about that scoundrel right now, let's talk about it later! Oh, by the way, when I came to the Prefecture, I unexpectedly heard passersby say that Madam Su found a live-in son-in-law for you, how come I haven't seen him?"
How come she hasn't seen him?
Su Yourong smiled bitterly to herself.
That scoundrel has a guilty conscience and doesn't dare to see you!
"Alas…"
Su Yourong cursed Shen Jing inwardly, then sighed and said, "He was perfectly fine before, but for some reason, he suddenly developed a terrible illness this afternoon, with red spots all over his body. Mother was worried it might be contagious, so she had him stay in his room…"
Another sudden terrible illness?
Ye Li's heart twitched violently, and she looked at Su Yourong with some sympathy.
This was the fourth one!
If this one also died from a sudden illness, she would probably never be able to shake off the reputation of being a jinx for her husband!
Su Yourong was clearly talented and beautiful, she should have been the object of pursuit for countless men, how did she end up with such a fate?
She had been furious because of that unpleasant incident.
But upon learning about Su Yourong's situation, her anger gradually turned into worry for Su Yourong.
"Have you called a doctor?"
Ye Li asked softly.
Su Yourong replied, "Not yet, Mother should be sending someone to call a doctor now."
"Don't worry too much."
Ye Li comforted Su Yourong, "I believe that good people are always blessed!"
"Hmm."
Su Yourong forced a smile, then asked, "Princess, why did you suddenly come to Luochuan Prefecture?"
"I went to Baima Temple a few days ago to pray for… the Empress Dowager, and I'm returning to the capital recently. I passed by Luochuan Prefecture, so I stopped by to visit you all," Ye Li replied.
Baima Temple is located in Qinzhou, which borders Huaizhou, and it is also the ancestral land of Great Zhou.
Going to Baima Temple to pray is also a way to ask for blessings from the ancestors.
"Praying?"
Su Yourong frowned, "Is the Empress Dowager unwell?"
"Hmm."
Ye Li nodded gently.
"I hope the Empress Dowager recovers soon."
Su Yourong silently prayed for a moment, then asked curiously, "Then how did the princess get bullied by that scoundrel?"
Speaking of this, Ye Li's recently subsided anger flared up again.
She just didn't want to be followed by a group of people everywhere she went; she wanted to explore Luochuan Prefecture alone.
As a result, as soon as she got rid of her guards, she ran into that scoundrel!
All her good mood was ruined by that scoundrel.
"Princess, you shouldn't run around alone anymore."
Su Yourong admonished, then comforted her, "Princess, you don't need to be too angry, as long as you are safe and sound, that's what matters."
"If I find that shameless fellow, I'll definitely skin him alive!"
Ye Li gritted her teeth, then asked, "Oh, by the way, how did Zhao Ying offend your mother?"
"Actually, it's nothing major."
Su Yourong smiled and simply told Ye Li about Zhao Ying's grievances with them.
Actually, it was mainly about his grievances with Shen Jing.
As they were talking, Madam Su rushed over.
She had already learned the reason for the incident from Shen Jing.
She also guessed that Ye Li wanted Su Yourong to draw Shen Jing's portrait for her.
She had to stop her.
Given the relationship between her mother and daughter and Ye Li, she wasn't worried that Ye Li would take Shen Jing's life.
But Ye Li was in a fit of anger right now, and if she found out that the scoundrel was Shen Jing, she would definitely give Shen Jing a good beating.
Learning that Su Yourong hadn't drawn Shen Jing's portrait, Madam Su also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh, by the way, Madam, how is Shen Jing?"
At this moment, Ye Li asked with concern.
"Alas…"
Madam Su sighed, "His illness came on suddenly and fiercely! I have already sent someone to call a doctor."
Listening to Madam Su's words, Ye Li's expression immediately darkened, and she prayed silently.
Shen Jing, please don't let anything happen to him!
Otherwise, what would Su Yourong do!
