Chapter 473 Du Zhihuan meets Yang Xu for trial
Yunyan lowered her head and lifted the carriage curtain. Madam Xu looked at Ah Su unkindly, "Aren't we going to check it out? Hurry up and don't delay our return home!"
"Excuse me!" Ah Su approached the window and stared at Yunyan's profile, "Turn your face around!"
"Asshole!"
Madam Xu yelled in anger, and the Mu family servants drew their knives and were eager to fight, "How can we allow you to peek at our servants and maids?"
Asu remained unmoved and stared at Yunyan with sharp eyes.
Yunyan was almost in tears when she was stared at. With great difficulty, she turned the other side of her face, which had a long centipede-like scar from the brow to the chin, towards the window.
Asu's face showed fear, and he stepped back subconsciously.
How can there be such an ugly woman?
"Woo..." Yunyan lay in Aunt Xu's arms and sobbed softly.
Aunt Xu was so angry that she lowered the curtain. "Get away!"
Then, Aunt Xu's words of comfort came from the carriage, "Don't cry, my dear granddaughter. When we get back to the city, I'll ask the old lady for the Yurong ointment. Believe me, you won't be left with scars. Oh, don't be sad now."
Asu was frightened by Yunyan's ugly appearance, but he did not forget to check the two trucks.
Asu raised his hand and lifted the cover of the first truck, and Zhang Feng and others held the hilts of their swords tightly.
"Don't be so shameless!" The Mu family's driver was furious. "These are all precious ingredients, don't dirty them for my master!"
Asu saw that the whole car was full. Each box and backpack was not big and they were stacked in an orderly manner. It was impossible to hide people there.
The same was true of the other carriage.
Ah Su bowed to the Mu family with an apologetic look on his face and apologized, "I'm sorry!"
"Hmph! I'll complain to my prince when I get back! I'll remember your faces, guys. I can't let this go!"
The Mu family's driver made a harsh remark and angrily shouted to Zhang Feng and the others, "Hurry up and drive the car! It's been so long!"
"Brother Su, what if that old man from the Mu family really wants to complain to Prince Mu?"
Ah Su sneered, "It's just a lot of thunder but little rain."
When Zhang Feng could no longer see Asu and the others, he hurriedly moved the two piles of boxes in the middle of the first truck.
He slid open the secret compartment at the bottom of the box to let Song Yu breathe. "Miss, are you okay?"
Song Yu gasped for breath, "It's okay, there are still many ambushes ahead, be careful and don't expose yourself."
When the Mu family heard that there were many ambushes ahead, they were terrified but also became extremely alert.
Aunt Xu looked at Yunyan putting on makeup and thought she looked familiar. "Are you the maidservant of Du Zhihuan?"
Yunyan simply said, "I am protecting my eldest daughter now."
"Then do you know who is hunting down your eldest daughter?" Aunt Xu was also a knowledgeable person. Those people were wearing shorts of relatively good quality, which were not the uniforms of the patrol battalion officers and soldiers at all.
"...Are they not from the patrol camp?"
Yunyan looked at Aunt Xu, whose eyes were full of shrewdness. The Mu family is really not simple. "Young lady said that this is related to the court. I am not sure who they are. I will know when we arrive in the capital."
The next person in ambush saw that it was a member of the Mu family and let them go immediately.
After passing three ambush points in succession, Prince Rong's men did not stop the car.
Zhang Feng approached the truck and said, "Miss, they probably won't stop us. Do you want to sit in the carriage?"
Song Yu was now curled up at the bottom of the box, feeling that he could hold on. "I'm fine. There are still countless ambushes ahead. There might be people like Ah Su who are not afraid of the Mu family. We must not take it lightly."
"Your Highness," a man hurried into Xiao Hongyi's study. "Just now, someone sent word that Prince Xiao's personal guard, Xiao Fei, led twenty palace guards out of the city to keep watch at the Du Family Flower Farm."
Xiao Hongyi put down the teacup in his hand. Did Prince Mu notice something?
"Wei Feng, has Zhu Qian sent back any news?"
"Not yet. Song Yu hasn't shown up yet."
"Have you noticed any strangers appearing in the Mu family?"
"We haven't found any. Not only the Mu family, but also the Du family, Jiang family, Cheng family, and Song family, no suspicious people have come to the door. With so many ambushes along the way, Song Yu may not dare to come back easily."
Xiao Hongyi: "Arrange for people to keep a close watch at the city gates, especially for vehicles entering and leaving the city. She might have sneaked back in disguise. Keep a close watch within ten days... within half a month!"
"What if Song Yu has already disguised himself and sneaked back to the capital?"
Xiao Hongyi narrowed his eyes and had no choice but to give up Du Zhihuan. He could only blame her bad luck.
He took the opportunity to seize the military power of the Du family!
"No matter what happens, Song Yu must not return to Beijing alive!"
Afterwards, Xiao Hongyi went to the yamen to discuss state affairs with the officials under him.
All of this was seen by the people arranged by Xiao Yanli.
Du Zhihuan had another dream last night that Song Yu was coming to cut off her face.
I arranged for someone to go to Chaofeng Palace College to ask for leave early in the morning.
I lay in the room for most of the day but couldn't come up with a solution.
"Miss, you can't sleep any longer, otherwise the old lady, the marquis and his wife will be anxious. The old lady has sent people to come several times, asking you to go to Zhaohui Courtyard after you wake up from your nap."
Du Zhihuan got out of bed and looked at herself carefully in front of the bronze mirror. Only after finding no flaws did she rush to Chaohui Courtyard.
"grandmother."
"Sister Yu, don't think about that dream. Huanhuan won't come to harm you. Even if she wants to, she can't get close to you."
Du Zhihuan's face was pale and she looked gloomy. "I didn't think about it. It just came into my dream on its own. I was just scared."
Seeing this, Du Ye was distressed and anxious. "Let's not wait for Huanhuan to take action. Grandmother will arrange for her to be exiled immediately."
Hearing this, Du Zhihuan felt uncomfortable.
Song Yu did not come back, so she stayed with her grandmother to show her filial piety and bring honor to the Du family.
As soon as Song Yu came back, her grandmother's heart was completely devoted to her.
"No, Daddy and Mommy won't believe that Du Zhihuan would harm me. They must see it with their own eyes. Besides, it's just a dream now, she hasn't taken any action. We are just suspicions and guesses, so it's hard to convict her! And..."
Du Zhihuan stopped and looked at Du Ye without saying anything.
"What's wrong? Anything else?"
Du Zhihuan said carefully, "Du Zhihuan has been filial to Grandma for so many years. Now that I'm back, Grandma won't treat her as her granddaughter anymore, right?"
Du Ye recalled how Du Zhihuan had been by her side to make her happy over the years, and had taken great pains to prepare birthday gifts for her during every festival and birthday party.
Putting aside other things, he is a filial child.
"You are my granddaughter, my only granddaughter. Huanhuan has called me grandma for fourteen years. I treat her as my granddaughter. After all, the Du family also raised her. She was unaware of the child swap back then. I am willing to continue to recognize her as my granddaughter, provided that she does not make trouble or do anything to hurt you. I and your mother will naturally choose a good husband for her. But now she has the intention of harming you, and I cannot tolerate it! How can she eat the Du family's food and then harm the Du family's people? Isn't this raising an ungrateful person?"
The more Du Ye spoke, the more excited she became.
"Grandma, don't get excited. She hasn't made a move yet. If she doesn't make a move, then I will believe that Du Zhihuan has no intention of harming me. This is all Yang Xu's doing."
Du Yeshi: "I hope she really doesn't have that intention. Oh, by the way, you should go check your sister-in-law's pulse now to see if she's pregnant for more than three months. We in the Du family can't let others raise children without knowing it anymore."
Du Zhihuan was shocked. If she went to take the patient's pulse, wouldn't she be exposed?
"Sister-in-law, wait until the baby is born before we see what it looks like. If I take her pulse now, she'll definitely think too much. After all, she knows that the Du family has raised someone else's child. If she gets angry and takes the child away now, then our Du family's bloodline will be lost among the people."
"You're right. After the baby is born, we'll examine its appearance and confirm that it's of the Du family's bloodline. Then they can remarry."
Du Zhihuan left Chaohui Courtyard and went to see the small courtyard where Yang Xu was imprisoned.
Only Bai Lan was allowed to go in, and everyone else stayed in the yard.
Yang Xu's face was covered in bruises as he lay on the couch. When he saw Du Zhihuan coming over, he quickly sat up.
"Miss Du, what brings you here to see Yang?"
