Chapter 8: Encounter with the Regent



On the way back, Tang Chuyao was in a much better mood. Seeing that her young lady was in a good mood, Du Juan was naturally happy too.

The senior sister pulled aside the curtain with a curious look on her face and looked at the scenery outside the carriage.

Xiaoyao Valley is more than 500 miles away from the capital, in a very quiet valley, it is like a paradise on earth.

Tang Chuyao has made up her mind that after everything in the capital is done, she will eventually return to Xiaoyao Valley.

After all, that was where she grew up, and she had the deepest feelings for it, and she had long regarded Xiaoyao Valley as her home...

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard my senior sister yelling, "Stop the car!"

Tang Chuyao was a little puzzled, "What's wrong, Senior Sister?"

Huang Xiaoyu turned around and looked at Tang Chuyao and said, "Junior sister, please wait here for a while, I will be back soon."

After saying that, Huang Xiaoyu flipped out of the car window, and with a few quick leaps, his figure instantly disappeared into the woods.

"System, what happened?"

"Host, someone is trying to assassinate the Regent three kilometers ahead, and the Regent's men are fighting those deadpools."

Regent?

Tang Chuyao's mind suddenly appeared the image of the Regent holding her own corpse, and the scene of him lying in the coffin with her corpse and being buried with her.

Goose bumps immediately appeared on her body, and she crossed her arms and rubbed them.

"Miss, don't be afraid." Du Juan saw Tang Chuyao's expression and thought she was scared, so she immediately went up to sit next to Tang Chuyao and put her arm around her shoulders.

The young lady lost her mother when she was young, and she hugged her arms with both hands because she was afraid.

Du Juan felt indescribable pain and pity in her heart.

Tang Chuyao knew that Du Juan misunderstood her, but she didn't explain.

At this moment, she was thinking about how to get her senior sister to help the Regent when she heard a sound of breaking through the air.

Then a figure got into the carriage. It was Senior Sister Huang Xiaoyu.

As soon as Huang Xiaoyu returned to the carriage, he saw the master and servant huddled together. A strange look flashed across his eyes, but he immediately returned to normal and said in a nonchalant manner, "Junior sister, there are a few bandits ahead, but they have been subdued. Don't worry."

"Let's go!" Huang Xiaoyu instructed the coachman through the door curtain, and the carriage moved slowly.

"What happened just now?" Tang Chuyao communicated with the system calmly.

"Deadpool took poison in advance, so after the assassination failed, they all committed suicide by taking poison."

"Senior Sister Huang didn't make a move, and the people around the Regent dealt with Deadpool."

Tang Chuyao couldn't help but sigh, being in a high position and having great power also has its own troubles, the Regent is the target of several princes' wooing, but the Regent has not sided with any of the princes.

Tang Chuyao was not wrong in her guess. The mastermind behind the assassination of the Regent should be Prince Rui.

Prince Rui was narrow-minded. Tang Chuyao remembered that at this time in the previous life, the Prince Regent was implementing a new policy.

The new policy affected the interests of many powerful people, among whom King Rui and his cronies suffered the most serious losses.

Prince Rui also tried to win over Gu Qingchen, but unfortunately Gu Qingchen ignored him!

"The person who assassinated the Regent was King Rui!"

The system's voice confirmed Tang Chuyao's inference.

Gu Huaifeng is from King Rui!

Having lost the support of the Regent, King Rui set his sights on the General's Mansion!

So Gu Huaifeng deliberately approached me and married me just so that King Rui could have the support of the great general who guards the country!

In her previous life, King Rui did indeed do it for the Crown Prince, but after that she was locked up in the side courtyard of the Xuanping Marquis's mansion for four years and no longer knew what was happening outside...

Gu Qingchen sensed a breath just now. It turned out that the person was very good at Qinggong. He followed him quietly all the way and saw that person got on a carriage.

Just through the lifted curtain, I saw a woman inside. The woman was wearing a veil, revealing a pair of eyes. Her eyes were as clear as water and looked bright and beautiful.

Gu Qingchen was shocked, little one?

Everyone knows that the Regent has ruthless means and his spies are spread all over Da Qi. He is the most noble person in Da Qi besides the emperor!

What the world does not know is that the Regent has been looking for a girl.

The girl had a pair of lively eyes and was the apprentice of a friend of his master.

Unfortunately, he didn't know the girl's name.

I heard that the girl returned to the capital three years ago, and he has been looking for her but there has been no news!

I didn't expect to meet her here!

"Yefeng, go check which mansion this carriage belongs to?"

"yes!"

After Tang Chuyao returned to Yongbo's mansion, she took her senior sister and Dujuan back to her own Luomei Courtyard.

Unexpectedly, before entering her own yard, she met her aunt Mei Xiao'e at the door! Tang Chuying followed behind her.

Mei Xiao'e is the only female master in Yongbo's mansion. Although she is a concubine, her life is more comfortable than that of the principal wife!

He controls all the expenses and income of the mansion.

Speaking of income, Tang Chuyao secretly clenched her teeth!

The entire Yongbo Mansion had begun to decline since her mother married into the family.

The old uncle had two sons. The scumbag father Tang Youze was the eldest son, so he naturally inherited the title of uncle.

녦My scumbag father has no official position in the court. He only has a title and has no achievements.

Tang Chuyao's uncle Tang Youan is uneducated and idle all day long. There are not only concubines in the backyard, but also maids.

Tang Chuyao also has a married younger sister-in-law, Tang Yuanshan.

The huge Yongbo Mansion relies on Tang Chuyao's mother's dowry to survive!

Don’t be afraid of being embarrassed when you tell others about it!

It was because in her previous life, Tang Chuyao was so devoted to making friends with her so-called family that she didn't dare to mention her mother's dowry.

When she got married, her scumbag father and aunt gave her mother one tenth of her dowry as a symbol!

In this life, her scumbag dad and this so-called Yongbo Mansion have nothing to do with her!

She takes back everything that belongs to her!

Tang Chuyao snorted in her heart but didn't show it on her face.

"The eldest lady is back!" Mei Xiao'e said with a smile.

Seeing Tang Chuyao revealing a pair of bright eyes, Mei Xiao'e's heart tightened unexpectedly, these eyes were too much like Chi Ran!

Thinking of Chi Ranmei, a hint of disdain flashed in Xiao'e's eyes!

So what if she's the eldest daughter of the great general who guards the country?

Isn't it still the end of beauty?

She is now enjoying her husband, spending her generous dowry, and bullying her daughter! !

"Host, this Aunt Mei despises your mother in her heart!"

Tang Chuyao remained calm, but was also a little surprised. The system could actually read minds! !

"System, can you read minds?"

"Host, I can't read minds, but I can interpret human micro-expressions!"

Sometimes Tang Chuyao didn’t quite understand what the system said. For example, the system just mentioned “human beings”. This word should refer to people!

"Micro-expressions?"

"Yes, host, I judge the other person's psychology by observing his facial expressions and some subtle movements."

"놖I wanted to come visit the young lady earlier놅, but there were too many things to do in the mansion and I never found the time."

"I heard from Ying'er that Mo Zhu upset the young lady this morning. It was an oversight!"

"Fortunately, Ying'er taught Mo Zhu a lesson in time and helped the young lady vent her anger!"

It is said that people who extend their hands don't smile. Tang Chuyao admires Aunt Mei's acting skills!
