Chapter 99 The Princess is calling you?
tomorrow?
So fast?
Su Yunyao learned about this when she was on her way to the general's mansion.
"What? Going back tomorrow?" Su Yunyao asked in disbelief, "I haven't had enough fun yet."
pearl:……
"Princess, the emperor has issued an imperial decree. Maybe he misses you," said Zhenzhu.
"Now that you mention it, I miss my brother a little too. Now that he's spoken, let's go back. I can also go see Lu Mingfeng and Xu Mubai."
Pearl was a little speechless after hearing this. After a while, she continued, "Princess, there is one more thing I dare not tell you."
"Speak." Su Yunyao picked up a piece of crab roe pastry, put it in her mouth and took a bite.
"Princess, how about you wait until you finish eating before I tell you?" Pearl Island asked cautiously.
"No need." Su Yunyao said firmly.
Is there anything more thought-provoking than her and Huo Xiao covering themselves with the quilt and doing nothing?
He's so big!
Could it be just a decoration?
Actually it can’t be used, right?
"Princess, after we arrived at the border, spies from Xijing broke into the princess's mansion and killed everyone in it!"
The pastry in Su Yunyao's hand fell to the ground with a plop.
Although she had guessed that something like this might happen, she didn't expect the other party to be so cruel.
"Where's the agate?"
Su Yunyao and Shanhu spoke almost at the same time.
"Princess, don't worry. Manou went to Jinjinglou to deliver the Dongzhu to Shopkeeper Xu and was not at the Princess's residence at the time. When she returned, she discovered something was wrong and went to find Lord Lu. However, when Lord Lu and his men arrived at the Princess's residence, the spies had already left."
The more Pearl spoke, the softer her voice became, until it was so quiet that even she could hardly hear it.
After all, she still clearly remembered when Shen Qiu Nian was kneeling in the yard and was carried out by the princess.
The princess said that a house where someone has died is a haunted house.
The death of just one Shen Lord and Princess was such a taboo, and now so many have died...
Pearl looked at Coral nervously, and Coral's expression was not looking good either.
She understood Pearl's pleading eyes and hurriedly said, "Princess, do you really not like Lord Shen at all? Will General Lu become your consort after you return to the capital?"
pearl:? ? ?
Su Yunyao finally came back to her senses, "I'm glad that Agate is okay."
As for the others...
After she came through, she didn't recognize anyone except the three maids around her.
If you don’t know me, you won’t be sad.
She could be cold-blooded.
"After returning, bury the people in the mansion properly and send some money to their families."
Pearl nodded, "Yes, Princess."
The money the princess mentioned should be enough to ensure that their family has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Pearl sighed in her heart and couldn't help but give Coral a cold look.
Su Yunyao's eyes deepened. After hearing such a big thing happened in the princess's mansion, she was in no mood to continue eating the cakes. She leaned back with her hands folded.
The carriage soon stopped at the gate of the general's mansion.
The butler brought all the servants in the general's mansion out to greet them.
Before, he only knew that this girl had an unusual identity. When he found out yesterday that Su Yunyao was the eldest princess, he was so scared that he almost fell down three times.
Although he had never been disrespectful to the eldest princess, he always treated her as the mistress of the house.
But the eldest princess is the king!
Su Yunyao was slightly stunned, "Get up."
Her expression was so calm that there was no emotion on her face.
The housekeeper followed her into the backyard and asked cautiously, "Aunt Pearl, if there is anything in the mansion that the princess is unhappy about, please tell me."
Pearl bowed and returned the greeting. "The princess is just a little tired. Could you please have someone boil some water for her bath?"
Su Yunyao sat in the bathtub surrounded by white mist. She dismissed the coral and pearls and soaked herself in the bathtub, wanting to calm down.
For a while.
She suddenly seemed to think of something and said, "Xuan Qing."
Xuan Qing, who was in the dark, was stunned when he heard this, then changed his posture and was hesitating whether to go down.
Xuanming and Xuanxin suddenly jumped to his side.
Both men were shocked.
"Boss, did I hear it wrong? The eldest princess is calling you?" Xuan Xin opened his eyes wide in surprise. The mouth under the mask was so big that an egg could be stuffed in it.
"I heard it too, but isn't the princess bathing? Why would he suddenly ask you to do that? There's no danger around."
Before Xuan Ming finished speaking, Xuan Qing's eyes suddenly darkened. "Since you know the princess is bathing, why are you following so close? Are you trying to disrespect the princess?"
Xuan Ming and Xuan Xin both lowered their heads, folded their hands over their chests, and said in a serious tone, "I dare not."
"Stay away."
After Xuan Qing finished speaking, he flew up and landed behind the screen.
"Your subordinate Xuanqing pays homage to the princess."
Su Yunyao slowly opened her eyes and glanced towards the screen.
At this moment, she was no longer in the mood to tease him. She just asked seriously, "Have you found any clues about the thing I asked you to investigate last time?"
"In reply to the Princess, regarding the man last time, I only found out that he was from Dong Liao. He seems to be from Dong Liao, but his specific identity still needs to be verified. I have already spread the news to other Xuanyi Guards. Once I find out more information, I will reply to the Princess as soon as possible."
Xuan Qing said all his words almost in one breath.
Although he was facing Su Yunyao sideways, there was a screen between them.
The moment the sound of water reached his ears, his cheeks turned red silently.
"Princess, there's one more thing..."
Xuanqing hesitated, not knowing whether he should say it.
Hearing this, Su Yunyao looked towards the screen and asked, "What's going on?"
When their eyes accidentally met across the screen, Xuan Qing quickly lowered his eyes.
His heart was in turmoil and he subconsciously took a small step back, fearing that the princess would hear his pounding heartbeat.
"Princess, the man you rescued outside the West Gate last time was the eldest prince of Xijing, Sang Yi."
Su Yunyao paused with her fingertips that were stirring the water.
Thinking of the dragon-patterned pendant he had someone send to him that day.
She even felt a little regretful that she hadn't taken it.
In ancient times, especially among the royal family, this kind of jade pendant worn close to the body had a kind of appeal.
It’s like seeing the imperial seal is like seeing the emperor.
Then seeing the jade pendant is like seeing the prince.
I was careless.
"Are you sure?" Su Yunyao questioned, "The Prince of Xijing is so ugly, and the Second Prince is also extremely ugly. How come the First Prince is so handsome? Could it be that he is not his biological son?"
Xuan Qing: ...
Xuan Qing was speechless for a moment. "Princess, the news is true. When the King of Xijing was young, he wasn't ugly either. It's just that he seems to have contracted a hidden illness in recent years, and his appearance has changed slightly..."
