Chapter 226: The Mistress of Xuanming Palace

In fact, sometimes, she also wants to know!

But right now, it's not the time to talk about this.

Since he happened to be here, it saved her the trouble.

Su Shengsheng opened the box and unexpectedly saw many scattered parts inside.

She raised her eyebrows slightly.

Looking up, I saw that Xie Xuan still had a gloomy face.

She took the letter from the box and walked over.

"Isn't the General hiding something from me?"

He was evasive in his words to Jun Yao, so who knows what kind of relationship they had in secret.

She has no right to control him, and he should not interfere with her.

"However, if the general wants to know the answer, how about we exchange?" When Xie Xuan stood up, Su Shengsheng put the letter on the desk.

Xie Xuan frowned coldly, "How do we exchange?"

Su Shengsheng raised the corners of her lips slightly, took a pen from the pen holder and handed it to him.

"Please also write a letter, General, inviting Miss Jun Yao to come to the Tangquan Teahouse for a while."

Xie Xuan frowned, "I've been secretly investigating her case, but I don't have any evidence. Why did you call her here?"

How could such a person easily leave evidence?

Su Shengsheng didn't explain, "This is the condition of the exchange."

Upon hearing this, Xie Xuan looked at her for a while, then finally walked forward and took the pen from her hand.

"What to write?"

"General, just set a date, nothing else needs to be said."

Su Shengsheng lowered her eyes and ground the ink quietly.

Xie Xuan didn't ask her any more questions and finished the poem in one go.

Su Shengsheng watched silently as he sealed the letter with his special wax seal.

When he handed it to her, she also handed over the letter in her hand.

Xie Xuan frowned, "You know that's not what I'm talking about."

Seeing that he didn't accept it, Su Shengsheng simply tore open the envelope and laid the letter out in front of him.

However, when she presented the letter to him, Xie Xuan's eyes shifted away for a moment and he only stared at her.

Her slightly raised face was full of composure. "Mr. Ji is a man of integrity. He was unwilling to abandon the Su family in times of crisis. He married me out of a sense of responsibility. To me, he is just my savior."

Xie Xuanfeng's pupils moved.

He always felt that she was fighting back against him.

She didn't like him exploring her, and she didn't like him using his status to oppress her.

And her words seemed to be reflecting him.

She treated him the same way...

It was as if his concern for her was also an offense.

This feeling of being pushed away layer by layer made Xie Xuan feel uncomfortable, and he pursed his lips coldly.

"General Xie, you didn't have to come here that day. I will let you hear the answer you want to know with your own ears."

Su Shengsheng withdrew her hand, put the unread letter into a copper basin and burned it.

If it can be exposed, they can also be untied.

The faint flames quickly died out.

Silence returned to the room.

…

"Miss, someone is coming." Zai Qing hurried into the room to report.

She just said that she was waiting for her too.

The meeting place is her territory, how could Jun Yao not know?

Su Shengsheng put down what she was holding and asked, "Has Magistrate Sang explained everything?"

In Qingdao: "I arranged for Bao Da to go to Sang County Magistrate's office, and Bao Er to go to the general's office. Everything has been arranged."

Su Shengsheng nodded and said, "Let's get started."

Zai Qing's face straightened, "Yes."

A carriage slowly stopped outside the Tangquan Teahouse. It was the one Su Shengsheng had seen in Chiyan City that day.

Nowadays, her cars can be seen in every street and lane. Cars like this one are only used by foreign merchants from outside the Great Wall.

And Su Shengsheng had been waiting outside early in the morning.

When Jun Yao saw that it was her, there was no surprise on her face.

"Miss Jun, please."

According to her status, Jun Yao would probably have to bow to her.

But she didn't mean that, and Su Shengsheng didn't put on any airs.

She only waited for Jun Yao, who she had just glanced at, to enter the room before she followed him in.

When asking for help from others, it is natural to be a little breathless.

As soon as I stepped into the store, I was hit by a noise.

Jun Yao frowned for a moment.

Su Shengsheng explained with a smile, "In a few days, this place will change hands, and a lot of things need to be demolished, so there was some noise."

As she spoke, she led Jun Yao, whose eyebrows were slightly moved, upstairs, "But it will also make it easier for us to talk."

Along the way, Su Shengsheng was also busy. "Last time, Miss Jun took a fancy to this place and was willing to pay two thousand taels of gold. At that time, I didn't know Miss Jun's identity, so I couldn't complete the deal. Now that I think about it, I really feel a little regretful. Not long after that, a fire broke out, and I almost died here. If I had known this would happen, I would have sold it to Miss Jun."

Qi Man, who was following behind Jun Yao, felt a little proud when he heard this.

She turned her head and glanced disdainfully at Qing Ning, who was dressed as a lady. When she saw the two of them enter the tea room, she raised her voice coquettishly and called them over.

"Jinse, Aoxue, you go there."

In the past, Qing Ning would definitely glare back.

But today is a big event for the young lady, and she dare not relax at all.

Just lower your eyebrows and eyes, and observe your heart with your eyebrows and eyes.

Amid the noisy noise, Jun Yao, who saw that Xie Xuan was not in the room, showed a hint of displeasure.

The last time he saw her, Su Shengsheng only thought she was the wealthy and noble Peony who was famous in the capital.

But this time, when he looked at her up close, Su Shengsheng felt that she was just a rose with thorns.

So cool and beautiful.

Even the bags under the eyes are quite impactful.

How could she ignore such an aggressive look?

Jun Yao had already sat down with a cold expression.

Ling's lips, like black rose petals, were stained with impatience.

The sight of such a beautiful woman with a fierce look in her eyes reminded Su Shengsheng of a poem.

Lotus flowers grow together in the mud, and entangled among thorny vines.

Lotus flowers grow in the mud with their calyxes connected, while roses have thorns and their branches are tangled and intertwined.

Her face is so beautiful that even Su Shengsheng, who has seen many celebrity beauties, cannot find any flaws.

The red color is tinged with black lipstick, giving it a blackberry velvet look.

But for some reason, this luxurious and perfect beauty made Su Shengsheng feel suffocated like death.

It seemed as if she had no life, and she was surrounded by an inexplicable energy that seemed to be able to absorb everything around her that could nourish her. It was a dark breath of death.

It looks like a flower that won't even bloom in hell.

The look she gave her, filled with heavy pressure, gave Su Shengsheng an inexplicable illusion, as if she saw a female version of Xie Xuan.

Such a beautiful woman with a strong and cold appearance looks very much like the peerless Egyptian Queen Fonse.

I don’t know why Xie Xuan didn’t marry her?

While she was looking at her, Jun Yao was also looking at her.

"Princess Xuanming sent me a message to bring me here. What's the matter?"

At this time, Qing Ning and Jun Yao's people stayed outside. Su Shengsheng poured tea personally. "The Yunyin Jun family's business is one of the best in Nanling. Naturally, we have business to discuss with Miss Jun."

Jun Yao didn't touch the cup of tea. "What business?"

Su Shengsheng didn't mind and sat down opposite him. "Miss Jun, are you still interested in becoming the owner of this Tangquan Teahouse?"

Jun Yao raised her beautiful eyes, but just looked at her coldly.

"Not interested."

Su Shengsheng was not surprised and picked up the tea at hand. "What about becoming the mistress of Xuanming Palace?"

Jun Yao's cold and beautiful face suddenly changed.
