Chapter 60: News from the Outside of the House

Yuan Shanjia sat by the window in a daze, this day is really boring.

Now that I think about the busy time in the past, in addition to practicing the tasks assigned by the master, I also have to deal with the affairs of the shops in various places every day, which feels really fulfilling. Now that I'm idle, I feel a little bored.

Yuan Shanjia flicked the guqin in his hand, thinking: I haven't seen Yuan Shanqi come over in the past few days, and I went to see her, but I was also rejected by those maids on the grounds that the eldest lady was still sick and afraid that it would be infectious.

Yuan Shanjia didn't believe that Yuan Shanqi's body was still seriously ill, and he didn't believe that she would die down.

"Mother" is not a vegetarian, how can she be depressed? Since he has not been depressed, he has been closed recently, which is obviously the rhythm of retreat.

This time, the two of them can be regarded as bonding, although she did not take the initiative.

The two of them were born hostile.

Yuan Shanjia suddenly remembered when he had just been reborn.

She was lucky that when she was reborn, it was not long after she was born.

She was brought to the nurse and raised, and she saw many grandparents and fathers, but her mother did not see her a few times.

When she returned, her memories were still stuck in her previous life, and she closed off her senses for a while. Until Yuan Shanqi asked Du Mo to sell himself to the house.

That's right! She was sold, just like an inconsequential little maid, as the second lady of the Yuanfu, she was sold like this.

Who would have thought that Yuan Shanqi's mind would be so vicious when he was so young? actually sold his own sister.

The most terrifying thing is that the people around her did not stop it, but instead aided the abuse.

It is even possible that there is the mother's handwriting in it. Yuan Shanjia didn't believe that with that mother's means, she could be sold out at will without her permission?

But even now, she hasn't found a single clue. Does Li Guqin really deserve to be a mother?

The hatred in Yuan Shanjia's heart actually surged into her heart again, and she closed her eyes tightly, suppressing the tyrannical emotions in her heart.

"Miss, the prince of Chu arrived in Yun Country yesterday." Ran Zhu saw Yuan Shanjia in a daze, as if unintentionally interrupting her train of thought.

It seems that it is just because Yuan Shanjia is bored, so he tells her some outside news. In fact, he was a little worried and wanted to divert her attention.

Qing'er didn't notice the tyranny on Yuan Shanjia's body at that moment, and when she heard Ran Zhu say this, she also said: "That's right, I heard that it was the prince of Chu who was sent by the Chu State to participate in the state banquet this time. It seems that the second prince sent by the eastern kingdom has arrived, but the crown prince of the Chu kingdom has arrived yesterday, but the second prince of the eastern kingdom has not yet arrived. But it's still more than a month before the state banquet, why did you come here so early? Is there anything that can't be done? ”

Qing'er was a little puzzled, isn't the state banquet the emperor's birthday banquet? Although it was also done in previous years, other countries did not send princes to participate.

Qing'er is not sensitive to the major events of these countries, so she does not know about it. She didn't know that in recent years, the relations between various countries have been tense, especially the Eastern Kingdom and the Chu Kingdom, which are in a state where war can start at any time.

The eastern kingdom is fighting wars every year, trying to subdue the surrounding small countries. These actions gave a warning to the Yun State and the Chu State, and made the monarchs of both countries feel bad.

Therefore, the State of Chu sent the crown prince this time, on the one hand, to seek cooperation. And Dongguo, the second prince was sent, also for cooperation, in order to persuade Yunguo not to help the surrounding small countries.

Because Wu State, which borders Yun Country and Dong Kingdom at the same time, also sent an envoy this time, hoping to get rescue from Yun Country.

Ran Zhu said again: "Moreover, there was an assassin in the Chu State Mansion last night. ”

Qing'er was a little surprised: "Why haven't I heard about it?" ”

Such a big thing, there should have been rumors for a long time, right?

"I was also going to the kitchen to help the lady get breakfast, and I overheard a kitchen helper say it. I heard that he had a relative who raised flowers in the Chu State Mansion and got the inside information. ”

"Then why hasn't it come out?" Qing'er muttered to herself suspiciously, "Could it be that the emperor has blocked the news?" ”

She frowned, as if she was thinking about national affairs, which made Yuan Shanjia feel funny for no reason.

Qing'er definitely didn't look like she was worried about the prince of Chu or thinking about the political situation, but thinking about why there was no news from her own news channel.

The maids always gossip a few words when they are not doing things for their masters, and the people they know are always everywhere, and they can always say a lot of miscellaneous things in various mansions in Yundu.

And they are especially good at association, guessing, and can always think of a lot of messy things based on some things that catch the wind and shadows.

"Okay, Qing'er, don't think about it anymore. Why haven't you come yet? Yuan Shanjia instructed Qing'er.

"Yes, miss." Qing'er replied.

As she walked, she was still thinking about her news.

After Yuan Shanjia stayed with Qing'er for a long time, he found that Qing'er was steady and patient on the surface, but in fact, there was a thick fire of gossip burning in his heart. Where there is gossip, there is her.

And she generally doesn't talk to people, just listens, listens when she eats, listens when she sleeps, listens when she goes to fetch things for the young lady, and doesn't forget to multipurpose anytime and anywhere, and listens to gossip from all directions.

After Qing'er went out, Yuan Shanjia maintained his original sitting posture and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ran Zhu said in a low voice, "It's not a big deal. It's just that Chu Rui, the prince of Yunguo, was injured, and his fiancΓ©e Wei Wei'er was held hostage by the assassins. In order to prevent the incident from expanding, the emperor blocked the spread of this matter, and the Praetorian Guard had also blocked the city gate to check for pedestrians. ”

"Weiweier? Something happened to her again? Yuan Shanjia raised her eyebrows, "It seems that she is still an accident physique." ”

When I met her on an outing before, I was covered in injuries, and it was only a long time before something happened again. Could the assassin have been targeting Wei Weier in the first place? That Wei Wei'er was hunted down and killed at the beginning, and it is not surprising that the man also chased and killed him to Yundu.

Or maybe the assassin wasn't there to kill? After all, if it was to kill Wei Wei'er or Prince Chu, then, when Prince Chu gave up Wei Wei'er, the assassin should have killed Wei Wei'er.

"Do you know who did it?" Yuan Shanjia asked.

Ran Zhu shook his head, "It's not clear yet, I just got the news, and the people below are searching." ”

"When you get the news, remember to tell me as soon as possible. In addition, it is a good opportunity for our people to take advantage of the chaos to infiltrate the city and spread some news as previously agreed. Yuan Shanjia said while thinking.

Ran Zhu nodded, "Yes." ”

Yuan Shanjia said again: "Is there any other news?" Was Prince Chu injured? ”

"Nope."

"Okay, I got it. Where has the master been lately, is there any news? ”

"Nope. No news has come yet. ”

Yuan Shanjia was a little worried, "Where did the master and the master run away?" and not a message back. ”

"Miss, don't worry, sir, they have great ability, and nothing will happen." Ran Zhu saw that she was worried and comforted.

"I'm not worried." Yuan Shanjia pouted, "I know they have great abilities, how can I worry about them?" Miss Ben just wanted to find her master to take a look at her father's body. ”

The master didn't contact her for so long, so she didn't have to worry about them!

Chu State Mansion.

"Did you find it?" Prince Chu was dressed in black and stood in front of the window. Behind him was a guard dressed in navy blue.

"Report to His Highness the Crown Prince. There has been no news of Wei Xiaojie yet. The guard did not lift his head, but knelt there, motionless.

Prince Chu didn't frown, as if he was not his fiancΓ©e, but a strange passer-by.

Even if a strange passer-by is taken hostage, a normal person should take a few looks. But Prince Chu's attitude was very strange, and he was very indifferent.

"Mo Er, is there any news from Mo Yi? Did the man do anything? When he said this, a mocking look flashed in Prince Chu's indifferent eyes, as if a stone had been thrown into the calm lake.
