Chapter 41: Cause and Effect
"First, you were in some very secluded place on the edge of the banquet when I arrived, second, when I arrived, I saw you lying on the ground like a corpse, and it frightened me, and third... Third, when I arrived, Miss, you were already dizzy, but His Highness the Sixth and His Highness the Ninth seemed to have a good chat. β
Du Yan felt that the corners of her eyebrows twitched, dizzy? Does it mean that she was too drunk, so she didn't have time to talk nonsense. But..., how could Xiao Wenqing get involved with Xiao Huaiyan, the relationship between these two people should not be very good.
Du Yan was sorting out her chaotic thoughts on the bed, but Xiao Dongzi's voice came from outside the door.
"Miss, the lord asked me to inform you that we will leave for the house later, and the lord will let you pack up."
"Got it, go ahead." Xiao Lu responded to Xiao Dongzi and asked a little strangely, "Miss, why did we go back home today?" It shouldn't be a few more days. β
In fact, Du Yan also felt strange, it stands to reason that after the celebration banquet, the emperor will leave them to play on the mountain for a few more days, why is his father in such a hurry.
Although Du Yan had doubts, she didn't dare to slack off, and ordered Xiaolu to clean up her things, and she went to tidy it up, although she couldn't take a shower, but she still had to change her clothes, otherwise she would be told by Aunt He that there was no faΓ§ade.
After Du Yan cleaned up, she took Xiao Lu to wait in the courtyard, this Cuifeng Mountain is really good, there are all kinds of scenery, it is really good mountains and rivers, good people. This place also carries Du Yan's memories, but whether it is good or not, Du Yan doesn't want to remember it anymore.
Xiao Dongzi soon came to call someone, Du Yan followed Xiao Dongzi to the bottom of the mountain, and saw the mighty convoy of the Du family, she walked to Du Chuanlin's car and saluted Du Chuanlin: "Father, Yan'er is here." β
Du Chuanlin leaned in the carriage to rest, his eyes were closed, and he didn't make much movement when he heard Du Yan's voice, but he just mumbled, and then called to the coachman, let's go.
Du Yan walked past Du Chuanlin's carriage and came to the carriage behind, and the coachman immediately set up the pedals for her so that she could get up.
It's strange to say that Du Yan didn't see Aunt He in her father's car, the carriage after her was Du Juan'er's, it stands to reason that Du Juan'er should come out to say hello to her whether she hates her openly or secretly.
Why is it so abnormal today? Du Chuanlin was also abnormal, as if something was happening at home that she didn't know. Du Yan cautiously greeted Xiao Lu: "Xiao Lu, you go and ask what happened last night." β
Xiao Lu responded to her words, but Du Yan suddenly felt that her mind was solemn, something must have happened last night, something very important.
Xiao Lu, who was instructed to inquire about things, came back, with an inexplicable expression, Du Yan was happy when she saw it, how could she ask her to make a joke to make herself like this.
Du Yan raised her hand to beckon Xiao Lu, she leaned sideways on the window, and reached out to poke Xiao Lu's face.
"Eh, what's wrong? The lord wants to marry you to the Third Highness? β
Seeing that Du Yan was still joking, Xiao Lu's face was even more expressions of being about to cry, Du Yan was anxious when she saw it, and hurriedly touched Xiao Lu's face with her hand.
"Say, what's wrong?"
"Miss..., Miss, Aunt He is dead... Right last night's party! It is said that he was killed by a martial arts master, but he has not yet found out who it is. Xiao Lu was about to cry as she spoke, so frightened that Du Yan hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, according to what Xiao Lu said, then Du Chuanlin must be angry now, and be sure to blow it up one by one.
Du Yan straightened her body and sat in the bumpy petite, she whispered to Xiao Lu: "You behave normally, don't touch the master's brows, and I'll talk to you when I go home, remember?" β
Seeing that Du Yan was so calm, Xiao Lu hurriedly put away his emotions and honestly followed Du Yan's carriage.
At this moment, Du Yanzhi felt that her head hurt even more, how could Aunt He and why did she suddenly die? Du Yan thought carefully about what had happened on Cuifeng Mountain in the past few days, and she couldn't imagine who a little Aunt He would offend?
If you talk about people in the rivers and lakes, it is impossible, Aunt He has been a small family since she was a child, and her father is also a serious businessman, so she will never have a holiday with the people on the rivers and lakes.
But why her? Why did she die, Aunt He's life is insignificant at all, and her death can't actually change anything. So why did that man kill Aunt He?
Du Yan threw her body directly into the cushion behind her in a mess, she couldn't figure it out at all, and she didn't know how to figure it out, shouldn't this trip to Cuifeng Mountain be nothing serious, why did she go again again, and things became different?
Du Yan stretched out her hand and pressed it on the side of her head, she now has the same feeling as before, that feeling of being involuntarily.
The carriage swayed, coupled with the big sun overhead, which made Du Yan and his party look sad. Fortunately, they were almost at the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they were immediately relieved.
Du Yan and Du Chuanlin and others retired at the door, she glanced at Du Juan'er, Du Juan'er obviously cried for a night, her face was pale and not like words, Du Yan didn't come forward to talk to her, and took Xiao Lu back to her yard.
As soon as Du Yan and Xiaolu returned to Hehuan Courtyard, they began to pack up their things, both of them were physically and mentally exhausted, and they were absent-minded when doing things.
Xiaolu was busy in the house, Du Yan sat down in the courtyard without anything, the path outside the Hehuan Courtyard was noisy, Du Yan said in her heart that it was estimated that she was doing a funeral for Aunt He, He Meng's family is basically no longer in the world, and this funeral is directly handled by the Du family.
Could it be an accident? Du Yan was still thinking at the moment, she had always felt that this matter was not simple, Aunt He's death was like a warning to something, but she didn't know if this matter had anything to do with her, or if it had anything to do with Xiao Wenqing...
Du Yan shook her head under the tree, the sun was setting in the west, dyeing the sky with a thick layer of red, and it was a good day today.
Someone outside the door came to explain the matter, and told Du Yan that the master told her to wait for a trip. Du Yan nodded at the visitor, indicating that she would go later, and sent Du Chuanlin's personal servant away, and Du Yan turned around and went back to the house.
Du Chuanlin was looking for her probably for Aunt He's funeral, but now Du Juan'er is delirious, and Du Chuanlin is in poor health because she is too sad, so she really needs to do something.
Eh, it's a pity that she just had to do things again after a tiring night, and Du Yan called Xiao Lu out loud.
"Just prepare me in black and comb my hair in a simple bun." As soon as Du Yan finished speaking, seeing that Xiao Lu was still busy there, she stretched out her hand and waved, still asking her to do her own thing first.
