Chapter 109: It's like a world away
The carriage stopped in front of the door of Tianxiang Pavilion, to be exact, in front of the door of the Zhunian Building. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A small servant stood outside the door with a large basin and poured water into the corner of the wall, and Zhu Nian happened to get out of the carriage.
"Boss, you're finally back!" the little guy looked at Zhu Nian and shouted excitedly.
"Hmm. Zhu Nian nodded lightly and responded.
Uncle Meng was watching Yang Wei fiddle with the abacus behind the counter, and the voice of the little guy happened to reach his ears.
Uncle Meng was rarely not calm, he patted Yang Wei's shoulder, signaled Yang Wei to continue settling accounts, and he crossed Yang Wei and strode in the direction of Zhu Nian.
"Miss! It's really Miss!" Seeing the living Zhu Nian, Uncle Meng was a little incoherent with excitement, "Miss, you are back!"
"Uncle Meng, I've only been gone for a few days, as for making you so uncalm?" Zhu Nian gently hooked the corners of his lips, feeling a little crying and laughing.
"Miss, you don't know, since you left this time, my right eyelid has been beating non-stop, and my heart feels sullen, and I will be frightened from time to time. Uncle Meng shook his head and said, "At that time, I thought, is something wrong with you, Miss?" ”
"As a result, you've been gone for several days this time, and you haven't had a message to me like before, and you haven't heard from me at all, so I guess something must have happened to you. ”
"Am I so abnormal?" Zhu Nian looked at Uncle Meng with a tangled expression and asked rhetorically.
"Miss, what happened to you?" Uncle Meng did not answer Zhu Nian's previous question, but continued to ask his doubts.
"It's not a big deal!" Zhu Nian shrugged, got up and walked slowly towards the hall.
Uncle Meng turned around to look at Zhu Nian's back, and heard Zhu Nian say faintly: "It's just that the emperor has been in prison for a day." ”
"What, in prison!" Uncle Meng's eyes widened in disbelief.
He quickly caught up with Zhu Nian, grabbed Zhu Nian's arm with concern and asked, "What the hell is going on?"
"Uncle Meng, be quiet, don't be listened to by others. Zhu Nian leaned into Uncle Meng's ear and whispered, "Let's go into the house and talk about it in detail." ”
Only then did Uncle Meng realize that his voice was a little high just now, he shrunk his neck in embarrassment, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and nodded, "Okay!"
Then the two walked into the Chai Nian Building.
The carriage turned around and waited at the back door of the building with the red candle.
And the six guards were suspicious in order to hide people's eyes and ears and attract suspicion, and they had already hidden in the shadows at some point, secretly following Zhu Nian.
......
"Miss, can you tell me what's going on now?" said Uncle Meng.
Zhu Nian and Uncle Meng had already walked to the backyard of the Zhunian Building, and Zhu Nian found a random place to sit down at the stone table.
"Hey, that's a long story!" Zhu Nian said with a long sigh.
But from her tone, there was no trace of helplessness or frustration in her sigh, but as if she was telling a story about someone else's family.
"Someone framed me and poisoned the dinner I made for the emperor, causing the emperor to faint on the spot and be in danger. And I happened to be there, so I was immediately arrested and imprisoned by Gonggong Shen, who was next to the emperor. ”
"What, who is going to frame you, Miss!" Uncle Meng felt angry and slapped the stone table with his palm.
Zhu Nian lowered his eyes and looked at his toes, and there was a second of glitter in his gaze, with a gray of disappointment.
“...... This is not certain for the time being. Zhu Nian replied.
"Then how did you get out, Miss?" asked Uncle Meng eagerly.
"Oh, it was that Ling Hu'an, it was he who helped me say good things in front of the emperor, and I was able to get out of prison. Zhu Nian said lightly that Ling Hu'an had helped her.
She has a strong intuition, if she truthfully tells Uncle Meng about Ling Hu'an's help, he will definitely want to be crooked like Tuoba Ling'er and Red Candle.
So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better to keep a low profile.
"But then again, that Shen Gonggong is really kind enough, he used to go to Zhufu to find Miss You, didn't he have a very good attitude?
Uncle Meng was panicked in his heart, and he was a little angry for Zhu Nian.
Hearing what Uncle Meng said, Zhu Nian looked behind him in shock, but he didn't see the six guards.
Zhu Nian knew that they must be hiding somewhere in the shadows.
Zhu Nian turned his head, put his hand on the back of Uncle Meng's hand, and said in a low voice and seriously: "Uncle Meng, don't talk nonsense!"
"Huh?" Uncle Meng was surprised, looked behind Zhu Nian, then nodded several times in a row, and said, "Oh, good!
Uncle Meng is also a very sophisticated person, coupled with Zhu Nian's warning and her strange behavior just looking back, Uncle Meng quickly understood what was going on.
"Uncle Meng, how is the situation in the past two days?" Zhu Nian changed the topic and asked unhurriedly.
"Miss, don't worry, everything is fine. Uncle Meng said with a smile, took out his right hand that was pressed by Zhu Nian, and patted the back of Zhu Nian's hand with his backhand.
"Since the addition of Old Man Li's steamed buns and Liang Shi's cooking skills, our business here is getting better and better day by day!"
"That's good. Zhu Nian nodded with satisfaction, and said again: "But don't be lax and take it lightly, and don't let the Ling Wu incident happen again." ”
"Okay! I'll be careful. Uncle Meng replied.
The two talked about something else, and Zhu Nian got up and went to the back door, and left in a carriage.
......
It was already noon when I returned to Zhufu, and the sun was poisoning.
Zhu Nian's skirt was soaked with sweat from running all the way, and her underwear was full of sweat stains.
Zhu Nian entered the house and was greeted by the housekeeper.
Zhu Nian asked a few words about the recent situation in Zhu Mansion, and the housekeeper said that except for Zhu Yanran, who came in and out very frequently every day, everything else was very normal.
Zhu Nian nodded, and returned to the bamboo garden with the red candle.
"I don't eat! I don't eat!" Zhu Nian, who was far away, heard Zhu Anyou's voice.
"Young master, these are all good for your health, you can eat a little more!" Fu Yue's voice sounded immediately.
Zhu Nian looked at everything in the courtyard of the bamboo garden, listening to the familiar voice, and felt like a world away in his heart.
In prison, she thought more than once whether she would never be able to get out in this life, and whether she would never see An You and this group of lovely girls in this life.
Fortunately, everything was just a false alarm.
"Anyou, you're disobedient again, aren't you?" Zhu Nian raised his voice and shouted loudly.
Zhu Anyou's originally hideous and tangled little face unfolded, and he looked at Zhu Nian with a look of surprise.
