Chapter 33: The Great Secret, It's Not the Same as It Was

"Smack-"

As soon as the waking wood fell, the originally lively teahouse instantly quieted down.

In the center of the teahouse, an old man in a long coat and holding a folding fan was sitting behind a large wooden table, smiling at the crowd.

After patiently waiting for the people around him to stop talking, he tapped his hand with a paper fan and said:

"Candied yellow lotus is bitter in the end, forced melons and fruits can not be sweet, good things must always be done by good people, and there are mortals who are immortals!"

A slightly hoarse voice said in a low voice, and then with a "snap", the waking wood fell.

"The protagonist of our story today is our first talented woman in the capital, the daughter of Prime Minister Shan, Shan Ruqing is also!"

As soon as these words came out, a whispering sound sounded in the teahouse, and a jade-crowned young man sitting in the crowd frowned, and the expression on his face seemed to be a little dissatisfied.

"Smack-"

The waking wood fell again, and the crowd gradually quieted down.

"In other words, this single eldest lady is a heavenly beauty, like a fairy daughter in the sky who fell into the mortal world, only Chang'e's posture can compete with one of them."

When the old man said this, he looked at a man in the front row with a fat head and big ears and a man in a fancy costume who was a little sleepy, so he slapped the waking wood again, and said in a tactful voice: "But...... Our fairy daughter doesn't love 'beauty' or 'Jiangshan'...... Guess what, what do our talented girls love? ”

The man finally raised his head, and looked at the old man's eyes with more inquiry.

"I guess everyone here will not guess, after all, there are hundreds of people, all kinds of people. However, I found out after a long inquiry that it turned out that what our single eldest lady loved was freedom! ”

"Smack-"

As soon as the wake wood fell, everyone in the hall did not speak, only the jade-crowned young man and the man sitting in the front row, with a vague look on their faces.

"Today, I will tell you the story of this single family that loves freedom and does not love beauty and the country!"

As soon as the storyteller finished speaking, a chair flew towards his faΓ§ade - and with a bang, the chair slammed the storyteller against the wall.

"Ahh Who is it! ”

Seeing this, a shopkeeper threw away the towel in his hand and ran to the storyteller.

And the crowd that was originally stunned also began to become flustered, everyone was desperately squeezing out of the door, and people who didn't know why walked into the teahouse, making the small door of the teahouse impassable at this moment-

"Let's Jean! Let's make it! ”

"Ouch! You're stepping on my feet! ”

"What's going on? Let me go inside! ”

"Ahh Who took my hairpin! ”

"Jane! Where are you, Jane? ”

……

After a period of confusion, the shopkeeper with his hair scattered finally crawled in front of the storyteller, embarrassed.

"Clickβ€”"

The blood-stained paper fan fell off the storyteller's hand, and the storyteller's wide-open eyes were staring straight ahead, as if he had seen the murderer who killed him, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a strange arc before he died.

The shopkeeper looked at the seemingly lifeless body in front of him in disbelief, trembled and probed the storyteller's snort with his hand, and then shouted in a hoarse voice: "Dad...... Dad, are you alright? Father! Don't scare me...... Daddy......"

And in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shan Ruqing, who was sitting on the ground, was also shocked by what Wulu said and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time-

It turns out that the original owner of Shan Ruqing's body may really have committed suicide!

"Miss......" Wulu looked at Shan Ruqing with a sluggish face, and regretted a little in her heart: I knew that I didn't tell Miss what happened that day just now...... I wonder if the current lady will think about it when she finds out? Isn't Miss going to think about killing herself again......

Wulu let out a long sigh, and his thoughts returned to the day when Shan Ruqing cried and said that he was going to commit suicide.

Wulu still remembers that the sky was not beautiful that day. As soon as the sun came out of the house for a while, it suddenly rained so heavily that she had to take back the clothes she had taken to dry and hang them by the stove temporarily.

And she was also drenched in soup, and had to change her clothes so as not to catch the wind chill in late spring.

However, just as Wulu changed her clothes and walked down the circuitous corridor, ready to bring breakfast to Shan Ruqing, Xiao Ji hurriedly bumped into her head-on-

"Ahh Sister Wulu! It just so happens that I have something to tell you. ”

Xiao Ji's shoes had already been wet from the rain, and the paper fan he was holding in his hand was constantly dripping water on the ground.

"What's the matter? So in a hurry? ”

"The master said that there is something to ask the young lady to go to the study."

"Now?"

"Yes."

"This ......"

Wulu was a little hesitant, because it was still raining heavily, and Shan Ruqing hadn't had breakfast yet.

"Sister Wulu, don't worry, the master will take care of Miss."

As if guessing the worry in Wulu's heart, Xiao Ji said with a smile.

This made Wulu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then she looked at Xiao Ji, who had some water stains on her sideburns, and took out a white handkerchief from her sleeve pocket and handed it to him, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, there is still rain on your face, wipe it." ”

"Hey, okay. Thank you, Sister Wulu. ”

Xiao Ji picked up the handkerchief and wiped his face, bowed to the turnip and turned to leave.

Wulu looked at Xiao Jina's back gradually blurring in the rain, and the smile on his face gradually faded: Even if it rains so much, I have to let the young lady go to the study, I'm afraid that something big will happen...... Just, is it a good thing or a bad thing?

Wulu sighed, and then quickened his pace and trotted towards Shan Ruqing's room.

But what Wulu didn't expect was that when she pushed open Shan Ruqing's door, Shan Ruqing was already dressed and was sitting at the desk looking at the heavy rain outside the window in a daze.

"Miss......" Wulu looked at Shan Ruqing like this, and seemed to feel something, but she was not sure.

So, she was stunned, and suddenly forgot what she was going to say.

"Did the master bring the words?"

Shan Ruqing said coldly, with a hint of mockery in her cold eyes.

"Yes......"

Wu Lu didn't know why, looking at Shan Ruqing like this, his heart twitched, and an ominous premonition suddenly occupied his heart.

"Let's go."

Shan Ruqing said, picked up a paper umbrella and went out of the room.

And Wulu followed her closely, and her mood was as depressed as the weather: I'm afraid this is not easy......

As a result, as expected.

After Shan Ruqing entered the study, Wulu and Xiaoji were sent out of the room, unable to know what was going on in the study.

However, looking at the heavier and heavier rain, the uneasiness in Wulu's heart continued to increase with the increasingly fierce quarrel in the study.

"What the hell do you think of me! I said that if I don't want it, I don't want it! ”

"Qing'er! It's not up to you! I can't help it! You have to focus on the big picture! ”

"What's the big picture? You say! ”

"Qing'er...... Daddy can't say ......"

"Huh! You are all hypocritical! ”

"Qing'er!"

"If I'm like this, then I might as well die! You just don't have my daughter in the single family! ”

"Smack!" ――

A shrill sound came from inside the house, and Wulu and Xiao Ji, who were guarding the door, looked at each other in surprise: Wouldn't it? Did the master beat the lady? This is the first time since Miss was born!

However, without waiting for them to think about it, Shan Ruqing rushed out of the study, ignoring the pouring rain, and ran straight into the rain.

Wulu didn't care too much, picked up a paper umbrella and chased after it, and a little rain hit her body, making her feel a little numb.

"Miss! Miss! ”

Wulu shouted loudly, not caring about how much rain she had eaten, only to feel that the clothes on her body were getting heavier and heavier, and Shan Ruqing was getting farther and farther away from her.

No way! We have to find a way to stop Miss!

Just when Wulu was in a hurry, a man in a long robe wearing an azure robe suddenly appeared from behind her, and a paper umbrella appeared above Wulu's head, followed by a warm voice: "You go back to the room first, don't get sick, I'll chase you if you're free." ”

As he spoke, the man stuffed the umbrella in his hand to the somewhat dazed Wulu Collection, and went alone to Shan Ruqing's figure.

It wasn't until later, when Wulu recalled this incident, that he knew that the man was Shan Linfeng. At that time, she was too anxious and didn't care too much about who that person was, but kept staring at the paper umbrella in her hand, and her heartbeat gradually accelerated.

Well? How did you come up with this......

But...... Maybe the reason why my heart was beating faster at that time was because I was running too fast......

"Alas......"

Shan Ruqing sighed heavily, and Wulu came back to his senses suddenly.

"Wuhu, in your eyes, what kind of person was I before?"

Shan Ruqing stared at Wulu's eyes and asked, making Wulu speechless for a while: What kind of person? This...... It's too hard to say, isn't it......

"Well, just give me a rough idea......

Shan Ruqing scratched her head, and seemed to know that this was a bit embarrassing, but apart from Wuhu, she really couldn't think of anyone else she could ask.

"Miss? The young lady has the appearance of a celestial ......"

Wulu said as if he was endorsing, which made Shan Ruqing feel a little funny.

"I'm not asking that."

She had heard enough of these boasts from Mrs. Shan.

"Oh......"

His green eyes darkened, and he sighed softly.

"Perhaps, the previous young lady should have resented the lord and the lady."

"Why?"

Although from Wulu's narration, Shan Ruqing felt the huge contradiction between the original owner and his parents, but what caused such a contradiction?

"I don't know the specifics...... However, I heard that the lord and the lady wanted the young lady to enter the palace as an official...... But the young lady disagreed. So ......"

"What?"

Shan Ruqing felt that her brain was not enough: what is the situation?

On the other side of the lotus pond, Shan Lian looked at the young man kneeling in front of him, sighed, shook his head and said, "Lu Nan, why are you causing trouble again?" ”
