In the morning, Jian Yu first went to find Taifu Jian. When she learned that her grandfather was not at home, she immediately rushed to Guiran Courtyard.
The nuns who were following Jian Yu kept shouting all the way, and everyone in the house knew that the second lady had dreamed about the thrilling scene of the Taifu encountering an assassin last night, so she went to look for the Taifu as soon as she opened her eyes.
After not seeing Taifu, he went to Rong Gongzi's courtyard and said he wanted to thank him personally.
When faced with her grandma's advice to come back after breakfast, Jian Yu said that if it wasn't for the dream, she would never have imagined how dangerous it was at that time, so she had to thank her in person, otherwise she would not be at peace.
The second young lady has a deep affection for the Taifu. This is something that everyone in the house knows. According to the second young lady's character, it is not surprising that she reacts like this.
In this way, Jian Yu found a perfect reason for her to come to Guiran Courtyard. When she reported the matter to the old lady, she just waved her hand and said to let her go.
The second lady on the side took the opportunity to use eye drops, saying that the second lady had no rules, but the old lady gave her an honest look.
There is no need to take care of this kind of thing, otherwise you will end up not being able to tell your husband, and you will lose face. The old lady has suffered in this regard in the past.
As long as the sick girl doesn't go out of her way, her husband will take good care of the minor troubles! The old lady even believed that even if Jian Yu did something particularly wrong, her husband would protect her.
At that time, I will definitely not tolerate it! But right now, this kind of thing is not serious enough to break up, so just turn a blind eye.
In order to save her own life, Jian Yu acted cautiously and cautiously. Even in the Taifu Mansion, her actions were as good as her example.
She deliberately asked Hongmei to pass on the message, so the nuns in the courtyard yelled like this.
"I've seen Miss Jian, what's the matter?"
Zhou Jinyan saluted Jian Yu who came over, with an innocent look on his face. He specifically called Jian Yu Miss Jian, pretending that he was not familiar with her and did not know where she was.
Jian Yu glanced at Hongmei, who turned around and went out to stand guard at the door. When the nuns arrived at Guiran Courtyard, they all stood guard at the door.
The nuns thought that Hongmei and the young lady were together, and that the same young master was not alone, so it was nothing. In fact, Hongmei hid at the door of the outer hall, and only Jian Yu and Zhou Jinyan were left in the room at the moment.
"Miss Jane, what do you mean?"
Jian Yu stared at Rong Xiao who spoke like this. She frowned and thought to herself whether she was overwhelmed by anger. What if the person in front of her was not an assassin and he got the hairpin by chance?
"You don't recognize me?" Jian Yu asked tentatively.
Zhou Jinyan tilted his head and took a closer look at Jian Yu's face. It was just like the peeled egg he ate yesterday. It was white and flawless. He didn't know if it felt different to the touch...
The fingers behind his back rubbed it twice, with an unclear expression on Jian Yu's face.
Jian Yu lowered her eyes. If it was an assassin, there was no need to deny her recognition. It seemed that she was impulsive.
"Yesterday, I left the family dinner early because I felt unwell, so I couldn't thank you in person. Today, I came here specifically to thank Mr. Rong for saving my grandfather. The little girl is so grateful that she won't disturb Mr. Rong's meal."
After saying that, Jian Yu turned around and was about to leave. She secretly thought that when she got back and let others ask about the hairpin, she definitely couldn't bring it up so casually. She didn't know what the other person's temper was. This was simply giving away excuses.
"Why don't you stay with my good brother for a while?"
A lazy and evil voice came from behind. Jian Yu stopped in her tracks. She turned around suddenly and saw the other party playing with the hairpin in his hand and looking at her with a half-smile.
Gan!
It’s you piece of shit!
Rong Xiao's voice was loud and short, giving off the impression of an upright young man. But the tone of the other person's voice now was exactly that of the assassin that night, and it was also his original voice.
"Why don't you know how to tease me? You will leave after just a few words."
Jian Yu narrowed her eyes. This person actually blamed her!
"Rong Xiao, is your true identity? Aren't we already on the same boat? Why didn't you tell me when you came over?"
The fact that the dog did not complete the assassination mission meant that he was on his side and he had promised many benefits. Jian Yu thought that this was an alliance.
Jian Yu also had an idea in her mind. If the assassins were Rong family members, things would be easier to handle.
Unfortunately, the good thing was broken the next second.
"Of course not, how could I use my true identity to defect to you." A harsh tone sounded, and the word " defect" was emphasized particularly hard.
Zhou Jinyan pointed at his face and said, "Jianmianpi, I am not so ugly."
Jian Yu's eyes fell on the other person's face, and her eyes were a little surprised. She often saw this kind of disguise in martial arts dramas. She thought it was fictional, but it turned out that it really existed!
From such a close distance, she couldn't even see any flaws!
"What are you doing pretending to be Rong Xiao? Shouldn't you keep a low profile? Are you not afraid of getting into trouble? How did you become my grandfather's savior?"
Jian Yu asked again.
"In order to escape Tang Fu's pursuit, I could only pretend to be someone else. As for saving Mrs. Jian, it was purely a matter of convenience." At this point, Zhou Jinyan's eyes flashed and he continued: "Those two assassins are Tang Fu. The person Fu sent to deal with me, a traitor, is an unreasonable disaster for Mrs. Jian."
Zhou Jinyan didn't say a word of truth. He observed Jian Yu and saw that the other party really believed her. His eyes were a little surprised. Tang Fu was an ordinary lady, why did Jian Yu think that the other party had such methods?
Zhou Jinyan, who had investigated Tang Fu, found no problems. He said this deliberately because he wanted to test Jian Yu to see her reaction.
"Miss Jian is so nervous but she wants to burn the bridge? Miss Jian, there is someone in my palace and something happened in Jian's house. Your love story will definitely be seen by the emperor and spread throughout Shengjing."
Hearing what the other party said, Jian Yu touched her face. Did she show it so obviously?
"Master Rong misunderstood, how could I cross the river and burn the bridge?"
Jian Yu admitted that she had been threatened. The rumors in the market were not terrible. She was afraid of the emperor's reaction. Prince Jing's death made the emperor very emotional. It is very likely that he would directly order her to be killed.
Jian Yu didn't want to gamble on this point, so she comforted him: "Don't worry, rest in the house, I will help you."
Jian Yu said this, but in her heart she prayed that Tang Fu would send someone to kill the assassin, but this person should be one of the best around Tang Fu.
Otherwise, if Tang Fu sends more powerful people, they can kill the assassin as well as her.
Thinking about this, Jian Yu was a little irritated, so she was tied to the assassin like this? !
"Okay, I'll rely on Miss Jian for the rest of the day." Zhou Jinyan smiled and clasped his fists, as if holding them to his thighs.
"Well, I can't stay any longer so I'll leave first." Jian Yu tried her best to keep smiling. She had to go back and think about how to get rid of this trouble.
After Jian Yu took three or five steps, Zhou Jinyan suddenly said: "By the way, Miss Jian, don't forget what you promised me."
Gold and silver jewelry, mansions and beautiful maids, donations of official officials and five items...
What she said flashed through Jian Yu's mind. She pursed her lips and couldn't smile. She didn't look back. After saying that she knew, she walked away quickly.
When Jian Yu returned to her room, she had no time to think about how to deal with Rong Xiao because the emperor's reward had arrived.
The day after tomorrow will be Prince Jing's first day, and it will also be the day she marries into the prince's palace. She must prepare now.
Jian Yu, who was ready to get married, never thought that the third prince would cause trouble.
