Xiao Yanchu was a little annoyed. Why did this little girl look so disgusted when she saw him?
Su Ruojin didn't dislike Xiao Yanchu, but it was only a short time since they parted ways, so why was he back again? Did the dignified Regent of Great Chu have so much free time?
“I know who took Zhao Guangtao away,” Xiao Yanchu said bluntly.
Su Ruojin raised an eyebrow: "Your Highness, are you having someone watch me?"
Otherwise, how would he have known that Mr. Zhao had been taken away, and how would he have been able to find out who was behind it so quickly?
Xiao Yanchu coughed lightly, clenching his fist: "I asked Hu Qing to invite you to dinner. He accidentally found out about this and was thinking if he could help in any way."
Hu Qing: ......
Therefore, he had no choice but to become the villain who was secretly watching Miss Su.
Su Ruojin rolled her eyes at Xiao Yanchu, thinking how could he come up with such a flimsy excuse.
Forget it, she couldn't be bothered to argue with him.
With Madam Lin in trouble, it's not necessarily a bad thing that Xiao Yanchu's people are keeping an eye on things; he wouldn't harm himself or his grandmother.
"Come in."
After Xiao Yanchu left the room, Old Madam Lin got up to bow, but Xiao Yanchu stopped her: "Old Madam, you are Ajin's grandmother, and therefore also my elder. From now on, you and Ajin will not need to bow to me."
That's true in principle; Madam Lin is indeed older than Xiao Yanchu, but something about it just sounds strange.
Su Ruojin poured a cup of tea for Xiao Yanchu: "Your Highness, my tea is not as good as that of the Prince's Palace, but please make do with it."
Xiao Yanchu picked up his teacup, took a sip, and his eyes flickered slightly.
This tea...
But Fengyuelou's only specialty is Hongshan Maojian tea.
Hongshan Maojian tea is produced in Hongshan, Yunnan, and has a tea-producing season of only one month a year. The entire mountain has been bought up by Fengyuelou, so if you want to drink Hongshan Maojian, you can only go to Fengyuelou.
Moreover, it is extremely difficult for anyone who is not a distinguished guest of Fengyuelou to drink Hongshan Maojian tea.
This young girl lives in an ordinary inn, and casually drinks a pot of Hongshan Maojian tea.
Xiao Yanchu calmly put down his teacup and said, "It was my men who took Mr. Zhao away."
Su Ruojin: ......
Madam Lin: ......
They had planned everything, but they never expected Xiao Yanchu to be involved.
However, thinking about it, if it were Xiao Yanchu's men, finding Zhao Guangtao within the territory of the Great Chu Kingdom and taking him away from the inn without making a sound would be an easy task.
"Why did your men take Mr. Zhao away?" Su Ruojin asked, puzzled. Did Xiao Yanchu want to force Zhao Guangtao to hand over the Zhao family's wealth?
That's impossible. No matter what, Zhao Guangtao is the richest man in Yunqi. Even if Xiao Yanchu's influence extends far, it can't reach Yunqi.
Even if Zhao Guangtao agreed, the Emperor of Yunqi would not agree, as this involves a conflict between the two countries.
“Yun Shao, the third prince of Yunqi Kingdom, once came to me and said that his concubine’s grandfather had disappeared within the territory of Da Chu Kingdom. He asked me to help him find Zhao Guangtao in exchange for the Soul-Snatching Grass.” Xiao Yanchu did not hide anything.
The Third Prince of Yunqi Kingdom?
Concubine?
Soul-stealing grass?
Su Ruojin and Madam Lin exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
