Chapter 21: The Return of the Heavenly Maiden
Su Tang'an left Gong You's room, Zhang Haiyi had been waiting outside, and when he saw her come out, he leaned over and asked, "What did Senior Brother tell you?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Su Ju'an rolled his eyes.
"What kind of attitude do you have?" Zhang Haiyi was very dissatisfied with Su Cheng'an's attitude, "Do you know what our relationship is now?"
"What's the relationship?"
"Since you are now my master's disciple, then you should call me uncle, you can't mess up!" Zhang Haiyi clasped his hands on his chest and said proudly, "You have this attitude towards my uncle?" In our Ziwei Palace, the order of the elders and children is very strict, just look at how much I respect my senior brother, so you have to respect me a little in the future, do you know?"
"Really?" Su Juan tilted his head and smiled faintly, "Isn't it because he is better than you that you are afraid of him?"
"Of course not!" Zhang Haiyi said with an unhappy face, "I'm not afraid of him, I just respect him for being older than me! But tell me, what are you talking about inside? Also, why did the senior brother take you as an apprentice? Why haven't I heard him mention it before? Why can't I understand what you say, do you have something to hide from me?"
He took a step back, looked Su Tang'an up and down, and asked, "And most importantly, why is the legendary Silly Miss not stupid at all?"
"What if you know the answers to these questions?" asked Su Ju'an.
"I'm just curious! I'm also from Ziwei Palace anyway, I have to know what you want to do!" Zhang Haiyi's face gradually became serious, "You can rest assured, no matter what Senior Brother does, I will support him!"
Su Juan sighed softly and said: "There are some things I don't know how to speak, and you may not believe it when you say it, maybe only a master like Master in this world will believe what happened to me, and I don't need to elaborate on it, I understand it, I am very grateful to him! If I have the opportunity in the future, I will tell you about my affairs, but not now!"
After a pause, she continued: "Also, although you are arrogant and uninhibited, you are a good person, and you still have the Guogong Mansion behind you, so there is no need to get involved!"
"I don't like to hear what you say!" Zhang Haiyi said, "But if you don't want to say it, I won't force it, but I believe in my senior brother, from now on, we are our own people, if someone bullies you in the future, take my name, I will avenge you!"
"Thank you!"
Su Tang'an stayed in Ziwei Palace for three days, and during these three days, Gong You did not show up again.
On this day, the sun was still as bright as ever, Zhang Haiyi trotted over, and there was still crystal sweat on his forehead, with a unique characteristics of a teenager, cool and bright.
He poured a sip of water, wiped his sweat and said, "Senior brother said, you can go home!"
"What has Master been doing these days? I haven't seen his figure!" asked Su Tang'an.
"Naturally, I'm preparing a big gift for you!" Zhang Haiyi smiled mysteriously, "You are his first disciple, he will definitely not wronged you, after you go home, you will know, senior brother treats you well, it seems that he really cares!"
"Big gift?" Su Tang'an didn't frown slightly, "He accepted me as an apprentice, it's already the best gift!"
"You don't care so much about this, whatever he gives you is naturally something he has thought through, you just have to accept it!" Zhang Haiyi said enviously, "If only my senior brother treated me as hard as you did, I could wake up laughing from my dreams! After I go back, you don't have to pretend to be stupid anymore, you can't pretend anyway, and you don't have to explain it!"
He glanced at Qing'er and ordered: "Clean up for your young lady, let's leave now, I have already sent someone to inform the Qihou Mansion, and someone will come to pick you up later!"
"Yes!"
After a while, the Qihou Mansion had already arrived, and when he left Ziwei Palace again, Gong You still didn't show up, but Su Tang'an had an inexplicable trust in him. Maybe after he said that Li Changlong's life was in turmoil, she already regarded him as someone she could trust.
Su Zixuan personally came to pick up Su Tang'an back to the house, dressed in a light white robe, with such a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, but there was more playfulness in his eyes, he stretched out his hand from the carriage, pulled her into the carriage, and said softly: "Lord Tiannu, be careful!"
Su Tang'an frowned slightly, and looked at Su Zixuan puzzled.
He smiled, and after pulling Su Cheng into the carriage, he said: "The fact that you were accepted as a disciple by Gong You Zhenren is known all over the city, you are Gong You's first disciple, and you are the first female disciple of Ziwei Palace, which naturally makes countless people puzzled, why would he accept a fool as an apprentice." Three days ago, in the blue sky and white day, suddenly thunder fell from the sky, but it happened to hit you impartially, but the strange thing is that you are safe and sound, isn't this the will of God?"
He smiled and continued: "Not only that, but Gong You Zhenren also plays to Your Majesty, you are the chosen one, so you are the Heavenly Maiden of Ziwei Palace, and your status is only under him, in Da Zhou, except for those nobles who were born in the Heavenly Family, you are the most noble in your status! You are no longer that silly idiot, and now you have become the most high-profile woman!"
Su Zixuan's hand never let go, he pulled Su Tang'an to his side, stretched out his left hand, combed her sideburns, and chuckled in her ear: "I really underestimated you, I didn't expect you to have this ability!"
His hand pinched Su Tang'an's face again: "The current you are really very different from the previous you, which one is the real you?"
Su Tang'an pushed Su Zixuan and said lightly: "Brother, please respect yourself, I'm not a disguise, I'm the real Su Tang'an! I used to be me, and I'm still me!"
Su Zixuan smiled, "Yes, you are indeed Su Tang'an, I watched you grow up, and you can't hide the slightest change from my eyes." You have been stupider than others since you were a child, and that can't deceive people, are you really not stupid after a trip to Ziwei Palace? There are many strange things in this world, if it is really God's mercy, it is not impossible for it to happen to you, but for you, is it good or bad?"
"Big brother, everyone in the capital knows that you are a gentleman, but in fact, are you a gentleman who is addicted to lustful dogs and horses?" Su Cheng'an smiled, "Sometimes it doesn't matter what you show, what the purpose is the most important, whether I am smart or stupid, I will remember that you are good to me, and you are the best person to me in the Hou Mansion except for my father, and you also said that we are all people without mothers!"
Su Zixuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled: "You are right, sometimes what is realized is not important, the purpose is the most important, so what is your purpose?"
"At least for now, our purpose is the same!" Su Juan said, "I don't want to pretend to be crazy and stupid in front of some people all my life!"
Su Zixuan leaned on the cushion on the side, supported his chin with one hand, looked at Su Cheng'an deeply, and smiled brightly: "Yes, who wants to be a person who pretends to be crazy and stupid for the rest of his life!"
After a while, the carriage arrived at the Hou Mansion, but I didn't expect that except for Su Liu and Su Chengle, all the people in the Hou Mansion were out to greet them.
Steward Li stepped forward and said with a smile: "I've seen the Heavenly Maiden! Fifth Miss's current identity is not ordinary, Master Hou ordered, we all have to welcome the Heavenly Maiden back here!"
"It's so grand, but it makes me uncomfortable!" Su Ju'an smiled slightly, "Don't call me a heavenly girl, I'm still your fifth miss, how was it before, and how it will be in the future!
"Yes!"
The second lady walked up with a smile, took Su Ju'an's hand and walked to the mansion, and said: "To be honest, I was shocked when I heard the news, but I am also happy for you, right now your identity is not suitable for living in the Cold Moon Pavilion, I have already ordered someone to clean out the Ling Yue Pavilion, that is where your mother lived before, and sent her mother-in-law and maid over, come over later, if there is anything you are not used to, if there is anything you are not used to, if you have anything you need, just tell me!"
"Thank you, Second Lady, that day, Lady didn't embarrass Second Lady, right?" asked Su Ju'an.
"No!" the second lady sneered, "As long as Master Hou still stands behind me for a day, I won't be afraid of her!"
The third lady took Su Yulian and Su Jinyan sisters to follow them in the mansion behind them, the third lady looked very indifferent, but Su Yulian and Su Jinyan's faces were not very good, there was jealousy in their eyes that could not be hidden, they were also concubines, she had received special attention from her father since she was a child, and she had a good marriage, but because of her brain problems, they were able to find some comfort.
But now, after she was struck by lightning, not only is she not stupid, but she has also become Gong You's disciple, the goddess of Da Zhou, and her identity is even higher than them, so how can they get by in their hearts! Heaven is really unfair!
"Be happy, who are you crying and sad to show you!" said the third lady with a smile.
"Why!" Su Yu pouted and said displeasedly.
"No matter what reason she is, this is already the case, but I think you should be happier!" The third lady said, "Madame and the third lady have looked at her unpleasantly before, and now they can't tolerate her, let them fight, only in this way, our mother and mother can live a peaceful life! Don't you want to be angry under the hands of the third lady? Then stammer, this heavenly girl, on the city, the third lady is afraid that she will not be her opponent!"
"Mother, I know what to do!" Su Jinyan pulled her sister, "Now that we have Su Cheng'an, it's better than Su Chengle alone, we are not Su Chengle's opponents anyway, it's better to watch from the sidelines, although we may not be able to profit from it, but at least Su Chengle and Mrs. will not look at us anymore! Of course, I still hope that they can lose both!"
