Chapter 109: They are members of the Shangguan family
The woman took the basket of fruit and knocked on the door of a room for a while before entering.
Sui Ge raised her eyebrows, and without speaking, Ji Liren consciously hugged her, and as soon as her body floated, she went to the roof over there.
"We're snooping on people's privacy." thinks that he is a dignified general, and he will be ruined by her.
Sui Song shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "This is called caring for the people and entering the lives of the people." ”
Ji Liren shook her head helplessly for her unconvincing explanation.
The two gentlemen in the room looked around, well, no one saw it. Then he got down, lifted the tiles, and looked straight inside.
“…… The slave understands. But madam, if they come again......" I saw the woman frowning and her finger raised in the direction of the door. Be bolder
"Don't be afraid to come again. My real surname is Chen, but I checked my household registration, and there are few people who know me, so you just tell them that you don't know about the surname Shangguan. ”
The woman sighed helplessly, nodded, and then took the basket off her wrist and placed it on the wooden table beside her.
The "they" mentioned in this are probably the two of them, right?
The lady in the woman's mouth was the old woman who sat in front of her, and even when she was sitting, she could see that she was a little hunched and gray-haired.
For some reason, when I saw this old lady, Sui Ge's heart moved, and there seemed to be a faint sense of familiarity.
"We have been away from the capital for so many years, and this house is also a remote old mansion left by the master many years ago, and few friends know about it, let alone any distant relatives." The old lady's tone was a little sad, "The Shangguan family is considered to be an old root, and no matter what blood relatives and in-laws, they are gone, gone." ”
The woman who opened the door stepped forward worriedly, with tears in her eyes, and said in a choked voice: "Madam, don't say that! Shangguan's ...... There are still two of us in the Shangguan family, we have to guard this place, maybe one day, we can see our little master who is blessed with a big life. ”
"Minghe, don't comfort me. You have been with me for so many years, and it is difficult for you to follow us from place to place. The old lady wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "I'm old." I don't dare to have any expectations, so I'll accompany those gods in this house to live a day. ”
In the end, the master and servant wept silently.
Before the two people in the room heard the end, Sui Song pulled Ji Liren's sleeve and whispered that he was going back to the General's Mansion.
Ji Liren was a little surprised.
From their conversation, they can probably guess their identities, this must be the family members of the Shangguan family. But that day, a huge family, suddenly disappeared in the capital, lost its voice, and came back a few years later, there was only an old woman and an old slave left, what happened behind this?
Ji Liren thought that Sui Ge would appear immediately and ask the two of them clearly, but she didn't think about it before she could take a picture, but she asked to leave.
"You're not going to ask her?"
"Ask what? I ask if there are two sisters in your family, and the one who married the prince is dead? ”
Sui Ge said lightly: "Not to mention that we suddenly appeared like this, they may not be willing to believe it, even if they do, it doesn't have much effect to recognize relatives now, at best, it's just a burden." ”
Ji Liren thought of King Jing Li, and wrinkled his eyebrows: "Are you worried that if he knows, he will be dangerous to them?" ”
Sui Ge was firmly in Ji Liren's arms, and at the end he glanced at the house, and replied, "No wonder I can't find them." It turns out that the surname Shangguan is no longer needed. Today, I really hit shit luck, and it was rare to ask an old man, and it was rare for this old man to remember that it was also the house of the Shangguan family a few years ago. ”
But for some reason, she faintly felt that something was wrong.
Every time she encounters these coincidences, in her eyes, there is always something strange. It was as if someone had deliberately told her the news.
Sui Ge's expression froze, and immediately asked Ji Liren to turn around and go to the place where the roadside stall owner asked for directions this morning.
At the junction of the main street and the alley, a fortune teller threw a mat on the ground and pulled up the guests everywhere, looking old-fashioned and omniscient.
Ji Liren did not hesitate, and after a while, he followed the direction indicated by Sui Ge, and easily hugged her and fell from the alley where there was no one on the side.
After turning left and right, the two came to the entrance of the alley, and sure enough, there was a god who looked a little obscene on the side of the road, shouting incessantly.
"Hey, don't miss it when you pass by, I can tell fortunes, fortunes, pray for luck, pray for marriage, and try all souls!" The voice of the gods shouting seemed to be a little different.
Sui Ge walked two steps faster with a calm face, and before she reached the entrance of the alley, she saw that the god had turned his head to look at her, but the next moment he had already turned his head.
Not this individual!
The arithmetic who stood on the street this morning said early this morning that he had lived here for more than ten years, and that he had been setting up a stall on the street for a long time, because of this, Sui Ge believed him.
"Damn it!" He stopped with the song, and after taking a deep look at the divine calculation, he said angrily: "It was designed!" ”
When Ji Liren heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he took her hand and walked towards the main street with many people outside.
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place, and if there is really any ambush, there are many people here, and it is not easy to start.
After walking away from the god stick, Sui Ge lightly informed Ji Liren of his guess.
“…… So you suspect that the one who led you to the house in the morning was the one who knew who you were? Ji Liren was a little surprised, and someone had deceived her under the nose of Sui Ge: "Who do you think it will be?" ”
Sui Ge's red lips opened slightly, and he spit out a name: "Bai Yutang." ”
Ji Liren just raised his eyebrows, but did not speak.
The two walked wordlessly for a while before finally walking out of the main road.
"The secret guards under my command haven't found any news about Bai Yutang, and even the Shangguan family hasn't heard from them at all, I should have thought of it a long time ago." Sui Ge tapped his head with some chagrin.
Ji Liren grabbed her hand and sighed softly, knowing that she was upset now, he didn't say anything, only whispered a few words of comfort. These things are coming too quickly, and it still takes some time to clear your mind and think about countermeasures.
Before the two of them reached the gate of the General's Mansion, they were surprised to see several tall men in civilian clothes running out of the General's Mansion in a panic.
Sui Song recognized that these people were the old subordinates who came to Ji Liren today to catch up. There was a faint impatience in her heart.
"What's wrong?" Ji Liren strode up, and when he saw that they were in a hurry, he knew that something must have happened in the mansion.
Lin Feng followed everyone out of the mansion in a hurry at this time, and when he saw Ji Liren and Sui Ge, his face was happy, and he instantly said solemnly: "Oh no, General!" Nguyen Nguyen is lost! ”
