Chapter 282: The Eunuch's Loyal Dog Career (10) One Update
Bang bang bang...... Tan Jin stepped forward and knocked on the door. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
With a creak, the head of a small servant cautiously poked out of the door. Seeing Tan Jin at the door and Zhu Yao and Ruyi behind him, the door was about to close. Tan Jin quickly stretched out a kick to stop the door he wanted to close.
Zhu Yao stepped forward and asked politely: "Dare to ask the little brother if this is the Jiangnan royal family? I am from the imperial city, and I also asked the little brother to go in and communicate with the master, which is convenient." As he spoke, he tilted his head. Ruyi understood, took a step forward, and stuffed the broken silver prepared in his hand into the little man's hand.
The little guy took the silver but smiled coldly, and then threw the silver out with a wave of his hand. The silver rolled down the steps of the doorway. With a bang, the door was immediately closed in front of Zhu Yao.
Tan Jin stretched out his hand to draw his sword, this little guy was really too deceitful, just let him pass it on, but he dared to insult the princess like this. Zhu Yao held down the hand he was about to draw his sword and shook his head silently.
She originally wanted to come over and tell her about her mother's concubine. In fact, the original owner had never been to Jiangnan at all, but he saw his grandfather and grandmother once in the imperial city when he was a child. Therefore, being rejected, Zhu Yao did not feel any sense of loss.
"Let's go out into the streets and see what to eat in this place. Zhu Yao took the lead and stepped down the steps. Ruyi and Tan Jin glanced at each other and followed silently.
The three of them walked around the street for a day, considering the silver in the purse, Zhu Yao did not spend a lot of money, and only tasted a few local snacks and stopped.
As the lights come on, the flow of people on the streets gradually thins out. Tan Jin escorted the two girls to the inn and rushed back.
As soon as he entered the inn, a guy from the inn greeted him, bowed down and said, "Childe, someone upstairs is looking for me, and I've been waiting here for a long time." Tan Jin and Zhu Yao exchanged glances, and then silently went upstairs first. Zhu Yao and Ruyi found a random table in the hall downstairs and sat down.
Tan Jin went upstairs, cautiously looked around, and was relieved to find that there were no ambushed officers and soldiers. While breathing a sigh of relief, he also secretly laughed at himself, he and Zhu Yao didn't encounter the pursuers all the way from the imperial city, where could they have encountered the pursuers when they arrived in Jiangnan. Presumably, the king of Nanping, who succeeded to the throne, didn't care so much about Zhu Yao's fiancée.
Tan Jin entered the side hall upstairs, and an old man with gray hair was quietly drinking tea, followed by a small servant. When the little guy looked over, Tan Jin's eyes widened, and it turned out to be the little guy who had insulted them in the morning.
"I apologize to the adults, the adults have a lot, don't worry about me as a villain. "That little guy is also a discerning person, as soon as he saw Tan Jin, he immediately went up, bowed down, and said solemnly.
Needless to say, Tan Jin also understood the identity of the old man in front of him. Thinking that Zhu Yao's only relative now is the Wang family, Tan Jin held back the breath in his chest and replied stiffly.
"Yao'er can you go downstairs, why don't you come up with you?" the old man asked Zhu Yao about the situation as soon as he spoke.
Tan Jin raised his eyebrows and said respectfully: "Mr. Hui, Miss is indeed downstairs." When we go out, we also have to be prepared. ”
The old man twisted his beard and nodded approvingly at his thoughts. His own granddaughter, of course he hurts. But this pain is separated by another layer, and it is not so close. The princess of the royal family is naturally not something they can get close to if they want to. If it weren't for this incident, I'm afraid they would only be able to see each other when the princess got married.
"What are Yao'er's plans? It's not convenient for you to live here now, so you can pack up and go home with me later." ”
"Yao'er thanks her grandfather for her kindness, but Yao'er's current situation is special and she is not suitable for living in the Wang family. Zhu Yao and Ruyi had already gone up to the second floor, and just when they heard the old man's words, they appeared, and Ying Ying bowed and said.
When the old man saw Zhu Yao, there was a hint of shrewdness in his cloudy eyes. Hearing Zhu Yao say this, he didn't force it, but just motioned to the little guy behind him to take out a purse.
"This is a little bit of my ancestor's heart, you don't want to live at home, and my grandfather is not reluctant. I'll give you this little money, and keep it for spending outside." As he spoke, he motioned for the little servant to hand the purse to Ruyi behind Zhu Yao.
Ruyi looked at Zhu Yao, saw Zhu Yao nodded, and took the purse.
"Yao'er thanked her grandfather! Yao'er came to Jiangnan this time to see her grandfather, and Yao'er will leave early tomorrow morning. After settling down in the future, Yao'er will contact her grandfather again. Grandfather, take care of your body!" Zhu Yao said earnestly, and the old man's eyes became wet.
At that time, his daughter was a well-known talented woman in Jiangnan, with both ability and political integrity, and the threshold of the Wang family was trampled by many matchmakers. But he always felt that his daughter was still young, and he didn't want her to marry early, but that happened later. Thinking about it now, the old man still felt a pang of remorse. It's all his fault, if he had found a good family for his daughter in this Jiangnan city and married early, where would he end up today!
"You are very similar to your mother when she was young!" The old man got up and looked at Zhu Yao's gaze as if he had penetrated the years and saw his daughter when he was young.
"Take care of your grandmother! Mother's business is that Yao'er is useless, and she can't protect her mother. Zhu Yao lowered her head, thinking of the woman who always explained to her gently, and her nose was also sour. Although she knew that it was just a mother's bond to her children, and she was just a ghost who took possession of the original owner. But she was still touched by the woman's gentleness.
"No one is to blame for this, if you want to blame me, I shouldn't have sent her to such a place in the first place, and now she will end up like this! Alas!" the old man sighed heavily, put his hands behind his back, and slowly went downstairs with the little guy behind him.
Zhu Yao looked at the old man's back as he walked away, and silent tears fell down his cheeks in his eyes. Zhu Yao knew that it was the relationship that belonged to the original owner, she and the old man had never met before, let alone gotten along, so they really couldn't talk about any feelings. I won't cry because of the old man's back. Zhu Yao lowered her head, thoughtfully, it seems that the original owner consciousness in her body is quite strong! It's just that she doesn't have much time to come out, but it makes it difficult for Zhu Yao to find her.
She also appeared once last time, but it was fleeting, so fast that Zhu Yao thought she was hallucinating. Because when she checked it later, she searched all corners of her body, but she didn't find the existence of that consciousness.
Now that she's reappeared, what did she want to do?
