Aunt Yun lost her son in middle age and suffered such a misfortune. Instead of crying, she laughed?
Zhu Sijia lowered her face and quickly expressed concern for Zhu Siying's safety: "Has she found any trace of you?"
This matter is bizarre. If Zhu Siying discovers some terrible secret, there is no guarantee that Aunt Yun will not attack her.
Zhu Siying promised again and again: "Sister, don't worry, it's been less than half a month since Yuan Xi's funeral. Aunt Ruoyun won't tolerate me until now if she knows I've been to her yard."
After Zhu Scarlett heard what she said, she no longer had the slightest interest in watching. She sat on the corridor by the water and fell into deep thought.
From the beginning, when Aunt Yun learned that Yuan Xi might inherit the title of King Yan, she behaved abnormally and did not seem to be happy for Yuan Xi; and after Yuan Xi passed away, she even laughed late at night. No matter how you look at it, she is not happy. It will be the behavior of a mother who loves and protects her children.
Perhaps Zhu Yu is not the only one whose life experience remains a mystery in Prince Yan's palace.
Zhu Sijia recalled Aunt Yun's life experience. Before she entered Prince Yan's Palace, she was a singer in Prince Mu's Palace, and Prince Mu was famous for his lustful and romantic character. Could it be...
Forget it, this place is not suitable for speculation. The rest will be studied after she returns to the palace.
In a blink of an eye, it’s lunch time.
Zhu Sijia decided to take Zhu Siying and Suiyu to Baiweizhai for a meal. Since Baiweizhai was too far away from Prince Yan's Mansion, the Yu family went back to the mansion first and did not go with them.
When Suiyu returns to Baiweizhai with a completely different identity, it is inevitable that she will be in turmoil.
Only a few people in Baiweizhai knew that he was the Dragon Guard.
Zhu Sijia and Zhu Siying walked in front, followed by Suiyu with a knife. He had just stepped into the door with his left foot, but before his right foot could catch up, he saw a light pink figure rushing towards him in the lobby.
A crisp sound of "Pa--" came from behind Zhu Scarlett.
She turned her head and saw Suiyu, who was covering half of her face before she could react, and Yao Niang, who was standing on his side, rubbing her hands.
Everyone in the store was frightened, and the young girl was so courageous that she dared to slap the official in the face openly!
Broken Yu is the Dragon Guard, the Dragon Guard who glares at everyone to death!
Shopkeeper Bai quickly pulled Yao Niang aside: "Yao Niang! Why are you so excited! Why don't you quickly apologize to Master Sui Yu?"
Yao Niang spat at Broken Jade again: "Bah! This black-hearted thing has been lurking in Baiweizhai for so long and deceived everyone for so long. Even a slap on his face is light. What happened to the dragon guard? He is the King of Heaven, and I will be punished for cheating others!"
Zhu Sijia stood there, looking at Suiyu with a little teasing in her eyes.
I'm afraid it's not just the fact that he sneaked into Baiweizhai that made Yao Niang so angry.
Zhu Scarlett was not wearing a hat or veil today, so it was not surprising that no one in the store recognized her.
Shopkeeper Bai reminded her in a low voice: "Look at the two young ladies beside him. They must be well-known big shots in Xijing City. He escorted them into our store today. Think about it, how many people in the world can invite them?" How many dragon guards can be used as guards?"
Yao Niang realized later and was so frightened that her face turned pale. Did she hit his guard in front of his master?
"You two young ladies, Cao Min, Cao Min admitted the wrong person, and you didn't mean to beat up this young master on purpose." Yao Niang's spine went cold as she knelt in front of Zhu Sijia and Zhu Siying, "I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive Cao Min this time."
Zhu Sijia lowered her voice and said with a smile: "Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, I hope you will not be as impulsive as you are today. Broiyu, let's go upstairs."
Sui Yu rubbed her face that was red and swollen from being slapped, as if nothing had happened, and looked past Yao Niang on the ground with an expressionless face.
…
After lunch at Baiweizhai, the redness and swelling on Suiyu's face still didn't go away, and even the other half of his face was red.
"Ziyu, is your face okay?" Zhu Siying looked at him curiously, "Why did one slap make your whole face turn red?"
Zhu Sijia also asked: "What, do I need to take you to the medical clinic to prescribe some anti-swelling medicine first?"
Suiyu shook his head: "I'll prepare everything in my room."
He wasn't blushing because of that slap, he was blushing because he was dining face to face with the Zhu Sijia sisters.
In the past, when doing business in front of Yan Xiu and others, even if the dragon guard was very hungry, he could only stand aside and watch the masters eat.
There are strict rules in Yanxue Tower, and the most insurmountable rule is the distinction between superiority and inferiority.
However, the two sisters Zhu Sijia had just warmly invited him to sit down and share the delicious food. Especially Zhu Sijia, she didn't care about these etiquettes and even poured him wine with her own hands.
Zhu Sijia was worried that he would be slapped again if he stayed here, so she decided to go back early.
The two of them first sent Zhu Siying back to Prince Yan's Mansion, and then returned to the palace along Qinglong Street.
Qinglong Street is the most deserted main street in Xijing City, but it is only deserted compared to other main streets.
The carriage was facing a family carrying a coffin for a funeral. White paper money was scattered on the ground, swept up into the air and then fell by the bleak autumn wind. The air was filled with endless sorrow, and passers-by on both sides showed sympathy.
"Zhiyu, give way to them." Zhu Sijia opened the car door and said.
"Yes, Master."
The carriage stopped next to it.
"It's pitiful that the little girl was only fourteen years old and she died so miserably. What a lovely and lively person she was. I hope she can be in peace."
"Oh, this Nan family couple has a daughter. Although the family is a little poorer, the old couple also regards their daughter as a treasure. I didn't expect such a tragedy to happen overnight."
The chatter of the people outside the carriage reached Zhu Sijia's ears.
She opened the car window, revealing the lower half of her beautiful face, and asked the people standing by the carriage: "Can any of the uncles and aunts tell me something about the funeral of this family?"
Those few civilians had never seen such a luxurious carriage, let alone such a stunning beauty. Without much thought, they knew that this beauty was either rich or noble, so they enthusiastically answered her in a flattering tone:
"The family that is funeral today is surnamed Nan. They live near Qinglong Street. The couple treat each other as guests and are envious of others. Mrs. Nan only gave birth to a daughter when she was nearly thirty years old, and she was regarded as the apple of her eye by her two elders."
"It's a pity that the night before, Miss Nan died at home in a miserable condition. The neighbors only heard screams coming from Nan's house in the middle of the night. When everyone went to Nan's house to grab knives to help, they saw that Miss Nan was still alive. Neng Yan, it means that someone dug a big hole in his heart, the blood was flowing, and his whole heart was taken away..."
Zhu Sijia let out a long sigh and continued to ask: "Just now I heard you said that she is only fourteen years old?"
"Isn't that true? But it just so happens that a fourteen-year-old girl also died in an alley in the north of the city. Her death was exactly the same as hers. Her heart was ripped out."
The deceased were all fourteen years old, and died after their hearts were ripped out? This must be someone committing serial crimes, and Dali Temple is very busy again.
Zhu Sijia casually gave a few pieces of silver to the people in reply to the questions. She told Suiyu: "Go catch up with the owner of that family and give the two elders a hundred taels of silver notes."
She carries banknotes with her most of the time when she goes out, and the banknotes are basically handed over to Suiyu for safekeeping.
Also accompanying him was the Silver Armored Guard, and Suiyu only had to leave for a short moment, so there was no need to worry about her safety.
