The late queen had a beloved silk tassel, which Situ Yao personally placed in the coffin for burial before her death.
That thing was made by Situ Yao himself, and was blessed by a monk chanting sutras in front of the Buddha to bless the queen with longevity and happiness.
But not long after he finished it, the queen passed away, and he was depressed for a long time.
So she was sure that Situ Yao would believe her.
Situ Yao closed his eyes and endured for a moment, then slowly opened them and looked at her: "Why did she come to you in a dream?"
Because I made it up!
Su Mengyan coughed and said, "I was curious and asked that person, and she said that my horoscope is more auspicious for Your Highness and can protect you from disasters."
So don't kill me, I'm a mascot.
Situ Yao finally suppressed his emotions and returned to his indifferent demeanor: "What else did she say?"
Su Mengyan shook her head. If she finished her words at once, this guy would kick her away. "This is all I dream about. Maybe I will only dream about her when you or I are in danger."
He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately said nothing more.
The carriage was shaking so much that Su Mengyan felt dizzy and her butt was about to fall apart before they finally reached their destination.
Following the guards on duty all the way to their residence, Su Mengyan was filled with frowns.
This place is not only dirty and old, but also extremely damp. How can it be a place for people to live?
She couldn't help but look at Situ Yao at the door: "Your Highness, this..."
"Your Highness, according to the rules, even if His Majesty has come, everything must be kept simple." The eunuch was like a wild duck with its neck stuck. His voice was as unpleasant as it could be, and the contempt in his eyes made Su Mengyan furious.
Situ Yao didn't say anything, but Su Mengyan couldn't help it.
"Bullshit! Don't think I don't know. You accepted the Bai family's money and want to treat His Highness harshly in this matter. I'm telling you, be careful. You may not be able to spend the money."
Situ Yao couldn't help but raise his hand and cough to hide his smile.
The eunuch's face turned pale. "You...don't slander me. I didn't do that!"
"Do you dare to say that the five hundred taels of silver hidden in your pillow didn't come from the Yuqing Bank? Do you dare to say that the new house your brother bought wasn't given to you by the Bai family?"
Su Mengyan blurted out, and the eunuch knelt on the ground in fear: "Your Highness, please spare my life, Your Highness, please spare my life, I was forced to do this."
"Bah! You're greedy for money because someone forced you to do it. You were caught gambling and in debt because someone forced you to do it. Why don't you just vacate the good room and let His Highness rest. If His Highness gets hurt, even if I chop off your whole family's heads, I can't afford to compensate."
The eunuch originally wanted to follow orders and give Situ Yao a warning, but before he even started, Su Mengyan exposed everything.
The eunuch was so frightened that his legs went limp and he quickly led the people to the real residence.
Seeing that the house in front of her was not as good as the East Palace, but at least it was not a leaky and extremely damp house, Su Mengyan felt a little satisfied.
She then ordered the eunuchs to clean the house, and then she happily put down her luggage.
There are four rooms in this small courtyard, a main room, a woodshed, and the remaining room each for Situ Yao and her.
After everyone left, Situ Yao asked Su Mengyan, "How did you know about that eunuch?"
"Of course that person said it." Su Mengyan had already decided to blame the Empress for everything that could be predicted. Even if Situ Yao still had doubts, he would not punish her easily.
Situ Yao looked at her deeply. Su Mengyan didn't feel guilty at all. He said nothing more and went back to the room to rest.
At night, Su Mengyan was exhausted and fell asleep, but a man in black came into Situ Yao's room.
