Chapter 494 Miss You
The steward of the big kitchen saw that it was Su Yuyan who came and came forward with a flattering smile on his face.
"Second Miss, why are you here? This place is dirty, please don't dirty your embroidered shoes."
Su Yuyan raised her chin slightly, "Where's father's soup? Is it ready?"
"Replying to the Second Miss, the housekeeper just came over and said that from today onwards the main kitchen does not need to prepare any food for the master, and that the private chef in the master's courtyard will arrange it for the master."
Su Yuyan's expression changed slightly, "What do they mean by this? They want to completely control my father!"
The manager didn't dare to respond. This was a fight between a tiger and a jackal. They, the small fry, would be lucky not to be involved.
Su Yuyan didn't want anyone to scold Su Ying with her, she was just very angry that this bitch was going to ruin her plans again!
…
It was already dark when Su Ying returned to the palace.
On the way, she kept thinking about Su Yulun's test results until she returned to Fengluan Palace and Dabao called her several times before she came to her senses.
"Ji'er finished school?"
Dabao nodded and said, "We'll wait for Mom to come back and have dinner together."
Dabao took Su Ying's hand and walked into the house. Xiao Jin and Erbao sat on the chairs waiting for her to come back.
Seeing her thoughtful expression, Xiao Jin asked, "What are you thinking about so intently?"
Su Ying walked over to him and sat down and said, "Su Yulun's condition is indeed very bad. I am very surprised."
If Su Ying felt that the situation was terrible, then it must be very bad.
"Is there any hope?" Xiao Jin served her a bowl of pig's trotter soup.
Su Ying frowned slightly, "Yes, I'm just curious. I've asked the imperial guards to seal off the courtyard and asked Zhou Qing to look after it. I'll ask two imperial doctors to keep an eye on it tomorrow."
Xiao Jin nodded, "I have also asked the spies watching over there, and they haven't found anything unusual yet, except that Su Yuyan would go out of the house to pray at the temple from time to time."
Su Ying drank the soup in the bowl and looked up at Xiao Jin. Su Yuyan's current situation was not good, but as long as Su Yulun was there, she would still be the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. As long as she didn't do anything wrong, it would not be difficult for her to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.
As long as she is not extremely stupid, she will not do anything to hurt Su Yulun.
But, what if she is really stupid?
Su Ying felt that this possibility was not impossible, so she left Zhou Qing in the Prime Minister's Mansion, openly asking her to look after Su Yulun, but secretly asking her to keep an eye on Su Yuyan to see if there was anything wrong with her.
The next morning, before daybreak, Su Yuyan went out in a hurry again.
She rode in a carriage all the way to the entrance of the alley in East City. She asked the coachman to stop the carriage and got off.
"Wait here, I'll be back soon."
The driver glanced at the street and hesitated to speak, "Second Miss, be careful."
Su Yuyan also asked the maid to wait in the car while she went to East Street.
East Street is a famous red-light district in the capital, but it is only lively at night and there is basically no one on the street during the day.
Su Yuyan ran to a brothel called Yuxianglou and knocked on the closed door.
Not long after, the door opened, and the sleepy waiter looked at Su Yuyan with a frown, "We haven't opened yet, we need to ask someone to come over in the evening."
Su Yuyan stuffed a jade token into his hand and said, "I want to see your shopkeeper."
When the waiter saw the jade card, his eyes changed slightly. He opened the door and led Su Yuyan to a hidden room in the backyard.
"Please wait a moment, young lady. I will tell the shopkeeper right away."
After a moment, a middle-aged man in brocade clothes walked in.
His eyes were sharp, with a shrewd cold light flashing in them. When he saw Su Yuyan, he just said coldly, "Second Miss Su, why are you here so anxiously? Is there something urgent?"
When Su Yuyan saw the visitor, she said anxiously, "Manager Liu, the Queen has sent people to the Prime Minister's Mansion. She has had people seal off my father's yard and not allow anyone to approach. Then, won't my father's affairs be exposed?"
Shopkeeper Liu's eyes sternly said, "Don't worry, Second Miss. You haven't done anything to Prime Minister Su. What are you afraid of?"
"But I..."
"Miss Su'er, think it over first. What did you do for Prime Minister Su? Didn't you just take care of him when he was sick and feed him medicine and food? Those things were also delivered to you by the servants. What does it have to do with you?"
Su Yuyan was stunned and speechless.
"Besides, those are just some ordinary meals. Even if the king of heaven comes, there will be no problem. What is there to be afraid of, Miss Second?"
Manager Liu's words calmed Su Yuyan down completely. She was also thrown into disarray by Su Ying's sudden visit. Her father had obviously kept the matter a secret and no one knew who had tipped off Su Ying.
Yes, she didn't do anything, what is there to be afraid of!
"The Second Miss is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion after all. If you have nothing to do in the future, you'd better not come to Liu. If others know about it, it will only affect the Second Miss's reputation."
Su Yuyan nodded, "I understand. What should I do next? Now I can't get close to my father at all."
"Keep your troops still and keep an eye on the situation over there. If there is anything unusual, send someone to tell Liu immediately."
"Okay, I understand."
Shopkeeper Liu took out a letter and a brocade box from his pocket and handed them to Su Yuyan, "This is what the young master asked me to give to the second young lady."
When Su Yuyan heard this, surprise flashed in her eyes. She took the brocade box and opened it. Inside was a wooden hairpin with a jasmine flower carved out of white jade inlaid on it.
Su Yuyan opened the letter, and there were only two short words written on it: "Miss you."
Just two words were enough to make Su Yuyan happy.
"The young master said that this is the hairpin he made for the second young lady. He will come back to reunite with the second young lady as soon as he finishes his business outside, so the second young lady doesn't need to worry."
Su Yuyan put away the letter and the gift and said with a smile: "Okay, I will definitely wait for him to come back."
"It's not a good place to stay for long. Second Miss should leave as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll leave now."
After Su Yuyan left, Manager Liu's face immediately darkened. He called his confidant and ordered, "Go, tell the young master that something has happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"yes."
After Su Yuyan returned to the prime minister's residence, the people following her turned around and disappeared into the alley behind them.
That night, the news that Su Yuyan had arrived at Yuxiang Tower was delivered to Su Ying.
Su Yuyan is a person who attaches great importance to her reputation and prides herself on being noble. If there was nothing important, why would she go to a place like that in broad daylight?
"Do you know who she went in to see and what she said?"
Zhou Qing shook his head. "The Yuxiang Tower is heavily guarded. The people I sent dare not rashly follow in for fear of alerting the enemy."
"Well, there's no need to act rashly. Just keep staring at her."
"yes."
"Has Prime Minister Su's condition improved?"
"My lady, there is no obvious improvement yet."
Before Zhou Qing left the palace, Su Ying gave her some medicine and asked her to feed it to Su Yulun. If the medicine did not work after taking it, she would have to leave the palace again.
