The woman who stopped her had a high status in the aristocratic circle of Luzhou Fucheng. At least after she said it, the topic was never brought up again on the table.
While Zhou Yunshu was eating slowly, she looked at the distinguished guests in the Nuan Pavilion calmly.
At this time, except for the main table, the other four tables were basically full. The civil servants and military generals were clearly distinguished, and even the female relatives of the family were seated separately.
For example, the table where Zhou Yunshu was sitting was basically the family members of Luzhou civil servants.
Both civil servants and military generals have a certain understanding of each other's female relatives, so when a new face like Zhou Yunshu appears, it will inevitably attract some attention.
But this attention did not last long, because today's birthday girl, Princess Yuyang, accompanied by Du Huairou and Yang Yuhao, came to the Nuan Pavilion.
Zhou Yunshu stood up and said hello to Princess Yuyang along with the ladies around her. Princess Yuyang nodded in response. When she arrived at Zhou Yunshu, before the doubts on Princess Yuyang's face showed up, Du Huairou took the initiative and said: "This is Rou’er’s friend.”
Princess Yuyang was now very satisfied with Du Huairou's thoughtfulness, so even though she knew that she had arranged a low-class woman to this table, she did not reprimand her. She just nodded slightly to Zhou Yunshu and went to the male guests' table.
Someone saw that Yang Bingtian, who had been dating Princess Yuyang, was not around, and asked curiously: "Why don't you see Mr. Yang today? Could it be that Mr. Yang is preparing some strange birthday gift for the princess?"
"It must be true. Yesterday, Master Yang left the Yamen early to accompany the princess. Seeing the princess's face was glowing." The woman's face showed a hint of ridicule that even a married woman would understand, "She must be very satisfied with Master Yang's behavior. A gift.”
There were so many teasing voices that it was difficult for Princess Yuyang to pretend not to hear them.
The smile slowly fell on her face. When she returned to the main table, she looked at the guests at the four tables in the pavilion and said politely but distantly: "My husband was accidentally assassinated yesterday, and he can't afford to be seriously injured now."
Princess Yuyang took a handkerchief and pressed the corners of her dry eyes, and continued: "If my uncle hadn't sent Eunuch Cao to congratulate me on my birthday, I wouldn't be in the mood to celebrate today."
Said Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.
After Princess Yuyang finished speaking, the door of the Nuan Pavilion opposite was pushed open by Butler Yang with a "squeak". After opening the door, he respectfully stepped aside. He was wearing a blue robe with clouds and bat patterns, and had a pair of shrewd phoenix eyes. A man walks in from outside.
"Eunuch Cao."
If it weren't for Princess Yuyang's "Eunuch Cao", everyone would have thought that the handsome man in front of them, even with a hint of bookishness, was the uncle or head of some family.
In fact, his spiritual demeanor is not at all like a eunuch, nor like the ruthless eunuch Cao Zhengxing in the rumors.
When Zhou Yunshu, who was standing in the crowd, saw Cao Zhengxing appear, the blurred memories of her previous life gradually became clear.
Even though she had disguised herself and looked nothing like her previous appearance, she still did not dare to underestimate the person in front of her.
Therefore, Zhou Yunshu quietly hid herself among the crowd, constantly reducing her sense of existence.
"I wish the princess a glorious golden osmanthus, a long spring daylilies, green pines and cypresses, and a prosperous life." Cao Zhengxing really didn't notice Zhou Yunshu in the crowd.
All his attention was on Princess Yuyang, but he couldn't help it. The difference between today's Princess Yuyang and the resentful Princess Yuyang yesterday was huge.
What made her seem to be a different person overnight?
Princess Yuyang smiled and said: "Eunuch Cao, please take a seat."
"Your Majesty, you are welcome."
When Eunuch Cao sat down, Princess Yuyang glanced at Du Huairou beside her, frowned slightly and said, "Where are your father and your brother-in-law?"
When the two of them arrived at the princess's mansion in the morning, they smelled of makeup. If today was not her birthday, just looking at her brother's miserable appearance, Princess Yuyang really wanted to give him a few feather dusters.
It's good now. I said I was going back to the guest house to simply pack my luggage, but it turned out that I still haven't seen anyone.
"I'm not sure, aunt, how about I go take a look now?"
As soon as Du Huairou finished speaking, Butler Yang who was standing at the door was suddenly dragged away by a boy. In less than half a quarter of an hour, Butler Yang returned to the door of Nuange with a pale face, staggering towards Walk inside the Nuan Pavilion.
The guests nearby looked at Butler Yang's weak legs and looked around curiously. They knew something about the Yang family. Butler Yang had seen the world. What happened to scare him like this? Vice appearance.
No matter how flustered Butler Yang was, he didn't dare to tell the story to so many guests. Under Princess Yuyang's frown, he unconsciously skipped the nanny standing next to her, and then half-knelt before Princess Yuyang. Next to him, he whispered back in Princess Yuyang's ear.
Butler Yang's voice was very low, but Nuan Ge was so loud. Even if he couldn't hear what he said, just by looking at his previous reaction and the cup falling from Princess Yuyang's hand, he knew that something big had happened in Yang Mansion.
Princess Yuyang could no longer maintain the peace on her face because of this serious matter.
She stood up with a livid face and said stiffly: "You guys eat first, I'll go take care of something."
After speaking, he ignored the looks of the people around him and rushed out of the Nuan Pavilion with staggering steps.
"Auntie, where are you going!"
When Du Huairou shouted, Yang Yuhao had already chased him out.
Du Huairou stood there, with red eyes, and said to the people around her calmly: "I'm really sorry, there was a small situation at home suddenly, so I won't wait for you all."
With that said, Du Huairou also ran out.
Sitting at Zhou Yunshu's table, the sharp-faced lady who had hinted that Yang Xinyue should go to the Red Lotus Sect to borrow seeds looked at this scene and said in a moderate voice: "The princess must be in such a hurry that something big must have happened. We Do you want to help?"
"No, this seems to be the princess's family matter."
"But if we don't help, what if something big happens and the princess blames us for standing idly by?"
After a few arguments, Cao Zhengxing, who was sitting at the front table, drank a glass of wine and stood up, "Why don't you all come with me to see what's going on?"
I have only been in Fucheng for a long time, and I have seen so many jokes.
Cao Zhengxing thought of Du Huairou's behavior just now and Du Hongyun's behavior exactly the same yesterday, and intuitively felt that what happened just now that shocked Princess Yuyang was caused by the seemingly weak and weak Du Huairou.
The bad water in her eyes is about to flow out, it's really endearing.
With Cao Zhengxing as the leader, the following people were also curious about the major events that happened one after another in Yang's house, so they left the banquet together and followed Cao Zhengxing outside with the intention of not holding everyone accountable.
Although Princess Yuyang and Yang Yuhao had disappeared, Du Huairou and her maid could still see their backs from a distance, and everyone followed Du Huairou to the yard where the accident occurred.
As soon as they arrived outside the courtyard, everyone heard a burst of screaming and yelling coming from inside.
Cao Zhengxing kicked away the boy who was trying to block his way, stepped forward and stepped on his neck, "Do you know what happened?"
The boy didn't want to say anything at first, but after looking into Cao Zhengxing's cold eyes, he held back his breath and said:
"The county, the king of the county treated Mr. Yu Chao as a butler of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion... and did it. When Mr. Yu Chao woke up, he couldn't bear the humiliation and stabbed the prince with a knife."
After the boy finished speaking, the faces of everyone following Cao Zhengxing could no longer be described as shocked.
