"The princess was probably deceived by the young prince."
Jian Yu:…………
"You don't like the young prince?" Jian Yu looked at Zhou Jinyan thoughtfully. She always felt that when the other person said these words, he was not telling the truth, but seemed to be exposing his shortcomings.
Zhou Jinyan paused, his eyes wandered for a moment, and then said: "No."
Jian Yu stepped forward and said, "You pursue Prince Chongjing, shouldn't you love the young prince so much? Why don't you like him?"
In order to put pressure on the dog assassin, Jian Yu deliberately took a step forward and then stared at him closely.
"It's not like I don't like it, I'm telling the truth."
Zhou Jinyan thought that he just didn't want that brat to become a monster, and what he described was correct. The brat was the little devil in Bianbei.
Jian Yu thought about it carefully and found that the dog assassin indeed had no reason to hate Zhou Jialiang. As for the information from the investigation, it was too biased and the content was probably distorted.
After all, she has experienced such things as spreading rumors, and there are still rumors outside that she and Prince Jing have been exchanging letters and secretly communicating over the years.
Jian Yu was too lazy to care.
"My princess is going to Futeng County tomorrow to attend to business. Manager Rong will go and inform Luo An, Feng Qi, and Zhao Chen. The four of you will escort me."
Jian Yu thought for a while and then said: "We will order four more guards and they will leave early tomorrow morning."
Zhou Jinyan asked: "I wonder what the princess will do tomorrow? What do we need to prepare?"
Jian Yu took a sip of tea and said with a pleasant smile: "Buying specialties."
*
Futeng County is famous for its longevity vine. This vine is called purple hemp vine in medical books. It is a plant that only grows in Dazhou. Only Futeng County has the best growth of purple hemp vine in the southwest. This is why this county And famous.
Purple hemp vine is edible, can reduce inflammation and swelling, stop bleeding and remove blood stasis, but it is mostly used in daily life. The "heart" of the purple hemp vine can be processed to weave brocade cloth, and the skin can be twisted into hemp rope, which is strong and durable.
This is the specialty that Jian Yu said she wanted to buy.
It was true that she wanted to buy specialties, but she also had other thoughts. She brought Zhou Jinyan and his "cronies" out to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Nowadays, the "Second Manager Rong" family is the only one in Prince Jing's Mansion. This trend is not good. The main dog assassin and she are not considered "one of our own". This situation is a bit dangerous for her, so she simply takes the person out.
These five days were enough for the other steward she left in the mansion to "seek power and usurp the throne."
When the two stewards check and balance each other, she won't have to worry so much, and she won't be afraid of being deceived by the dog assassin. If the dog assassin covers the sky with one hand in Prince Jing's Mansion, there are too many small tricks he can do secretly. Prince Jing's Mansion is now equivalent to her base camp. , no carelessness.
As for the young prince, he will go to the royal family to study for seven days, and then enter the Zhou family tree as the son of Prince Jing. This is what the emperor ordered on the day he met the emperor.
This move can be regarded as a sign of respecting the young prince, making it more legitimate for him to inherit the title in the future. Jian Yu personally sent the young prince to the clan in the morning. She has only been in Futeng County for four or five days, and will be back before the young prince leaves the clan.
It takes half a day's journey from Futeng County to Shengjing City. The carriage in Prince Jing's Mansion is wide and comfortable. This journey is on a paved national highway, so there are almost no bumps.
Jian Yu lay in the car and took a nap before arriving in Futeng County.
Zhou Jinyan saw Jian Yu's sleepy look when she got off the carriage, and he couldn't figure it out again. Come to Futeng County to buy purple hemp vine?
Perhaps, she came here to avoid the limelight in Shengjing. Now Shengjing pays close attention to Princess Jing's words and deeds, and there are several waves of people watching at the door of Prince Jing's Mansion.
When you think about it this way, it makes some sense.
When they arrived in Futeng County, Zhou Jinyan once again saw Jian Yu's pickiness about food.
Because the food was not to her liking, she only drank a few sips of tea. She had obviously fallen asleep all the way. After putting down her chopsticks, she yawned and said she was sleepy, and went upstairs to rest again.
Two palace guards followed Princess Jing upstairs and then stood guard by the door. The master's safety came first when he was away from home.
Zhou Jinyan frowned and glanced at the three people beside him who were eating happily, his eyes full of disgust. He originally called these three people to see if Jian Yu had other thoughts about them.
Obviously, no.
Touching the mask in his arms, Zhou Jinyan thought, it seems that he has to appear in person.
The food at the inn was not to her liking, so Hongmei went to a famous restaurant two streets away to buy signature dishes. Jian Yu didn't like it either, so she finally ate a few bites of pastries and said she wasn't hungry anymore.
Jian Yu told a few people that they didn't have to get up early tomorrow. She would sleep until noon before going out, and then returned to her room.
It wasn't that Jian Yu had any problems, it was just that she was tired. She had felt a little overwhelmed since the day she climbed Wuwu Mountain. She thought she could rest on the way to Futeng County, but the more she slept in the carriage, the more tired she became.
The food in the inn was terrible, but the bed was very good for sleeping. After sleeping all afternoon, Jian Yu didn't get enough sleep. She planned to sleep until she woke up naturally tomorrow, so that she could definitely regain her energy.
Unfortunately, what happened was counterproductive. When she was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night, she heard a creaking sound coming from the window, and she woke up immediately.
"Master Rong?!"
Under the moonlight, she saw a figure by the window with his back to her. After spending so much time with the dog assassin, Jian Yu recognized who this person was at a glance.
Although the other party had changed into night clothes, his shoes had not been changed, and his figure was clearly distinguishable.
"it's me."
Zhou Jinyan took a breath, but he didn't move. His hoarse voice was obviously short of breath when he spoke.
Is this an injury?
"An assassin came just now. It should have been sent by Tang Fu, but I have already driven him away."
Hearing what Zhou Jinyan said, Jian Yu secretly felt lucky that she had chosen to cooperate with the dog assassin!
She lit the oil lamp and walked to a position one step away from Zhou Jinyan, then stopped and said, "Mr. Rong, are you injured?"
"It's okay, I just got a sneak attack from the opponent. I came to see if there are any other assassins hiding in your house. It's okay. You're safe now."
Zhou Jinyan, who was half sitting on the ground, stood up straight and then turned around.
Jian Yu's eyelids were droopy due to sleepiness. After seeing Zhou Jinyan's appearance, her eyes widened suddenly.
This, this, who!
