Chapter Twenty-Nine: Shocking Waves
Su Juan listened to Sikong Yun'er's story, and a trace of doubt rose in her heart, how could it be such a coincidence, they were actually on the same road. Raising his eyes, he saw one of Sikong Yun'er's hands, always covering his lotus arm, and his eyebrows and eyes were lowered for fear of being seen.
The burden of the two of them has been recovered by her brother Su Jin, and it is placed on the desk in the room where Sikong Yun'er was just now, but Sikong Yun has been in a panic since she woke up and has not noticed it.
Now that the truth of the matter has been clarified, Su Juan is dressed as a man, and it is indeed a little inappropriate to stay, so he retreated from the room.
Su Juan ordered Xiao Zhao to go back to the room and take the baggage of the two of them and send it over, but the woman couldn't be allowed to wear torn clothes all the time.
Su Juan wanted to go back to her room alone, raised her eyes and saw her brother Su Jin, Rong An and Ji Yunfan stood at the door of her room at some point, and the three of them should have something to discuss.
The appearance of the elder brother was not too surprised, the elder brother has always been pure and kind-hearted, presumably because he wanted to know the identities of the two women.
She could guess her brother's thoughts, what the other two people meant, most of them were also for the sake of those two girls.
Although there are doubts and confusions in the heart, they do not reveal half of it. Su Juan didn't say a word, and walked directly into the room, everyone followed, and Uncle An and Ji Yunfan saluted Su Juan one after another.
"Uncle An, Escort Ji doesn't have to be polite. β
The two stood respectfully aside, and Su Wan's clear eyes looked at his brother Su Jin and said, "Brother, are you here for that woman?"
Su Jin was the first to ask, "Well, how is that woman?"
Su Juan snorted lightly and said: "Well, that woman's name is Sikong Yun'er, she is an orphan girl who went to the border to find relatives, those two bandits are her domestic servants, and the injured old woman is her 'milk' mother." β
Su Jinyu's eyebrows were lightly raised, and a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes: "It was such a coincidence, that girl also went to the border?
This is also where Su Juan thinks it is a coincidence, a young woman and an old "woman" actually went north to look for relatives, and they were on the same road as them.
"Yes, that's what the woman said, and it should be true that she looked at her. β
Ji Yunfan's expression was the same as Su Jin's, he was ordered by the prince to protect Su Jin, and he couldn't let go of any potential safety hazards.
"Your Royal Highness the Princess, that woman's identity is suspicious, for the sake of safety, she will be sent away tomorrow. β
Rong An also felt that it was very inappropriate for the team to suddenly take in two people of unknown origin, "Princess, the war ahead is urgent, and now it is important to hurry, and I am afraid that it will be inappropriate to take in irrelevant people."
Su Juan's heart was also full of doubts, thinking of the woman's frightened look, and her "milk" mother had not woken up yet, so it was unsympathetic to send people away.
If what they say is true, it is very dangerous for an old man and a young man to go to the border to find relatives, and they can't bear it.
For a while, he was full of thoughts, and raised his eyes to look at everyone: "Let me consider this matter carefully, brother Ji Guard, for the sake of safety, please send someone to keep vigil and take care of the grain, grass and ordnance." β
It's not that Su Juan spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, it's just that these things are too important, and she can't let them be lost in any way.
The sky is gradually breaking, the sky is studded with scattered stars, the morning breeze blows off the light veil of night, and the sleeping people gradually wake up from their dreams.
The early morning sun shines through the window lattice, and the fine light and shadow shine on the face, warm and soft.
Sikong Yun'er's eyebrows trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes, and there was a slight numbness in her arms.
All night, I fell asleep in front of the bed of the "milk" mother, and when I woke up, it was already dawn, and the candle flame in the room was extinguished at some point, and the candle tears fell and condensed.
Stretched out her hand to hold the "milk" mother on the bed with her eyes slightly closed, and called: "Wu Niang, I am Yun'er, when will you wake up." β
At this time, there was a knock at the door of the room, it was Su Juan and Xiao Zhao, who came to deliver breakfast to Sikong Yun'er, Su Juan also wanted to ask more clearly, before making a judgment, whether the two of them should go or stay.
"Engong, please come in!" Sikong Yun'er's soft voice came from the room.
Su Juan took Xiao Zhao to push open the door and walked in, and saw Sikong Yun'er standing in the middle of the room, lowered her eyebrows and saluted her: "Sikong Yun'er has seen Engong!"
Su Juan caught a glimpse of Sikong Yun'er's slightly red eyes and was slightly tired, it seemed that this pair of master and servant had a deep affection, "Miss Yun'er doesn't need to be polite, I brought breakfast over, by the way, let's see if Wu Niang has woken up." β
Xiao Zhao had already put the food box on the table, and was about to take out the food inside, Yun'er saluted again: "Thank you for your kindness, but Wu Niang hasn't woken up yet, and Yun'er can't eat anything." β
Seeing that this woman is weak and lovely, is she not defensive of herself, or is she really worried that the "breast" mother has no intention of eating.
Su Wan narrowed her eyes and deliberately tentatively said: "It's not that Miss Yun'er doesn't believe it, and she is afraid that the food will not be clean." β
Sikong Yun'er hurriedly explained: "No, don't get me wrong, Wu Niang watched Yun'er grow up with one hand, she loves me like my own mother, if something happens to Wu Niang, Yun'er doesn't know what to do?"
Su Juan saw that her sincere 'touch' was not like a disguise, and asked again: "Isn't Miss Yun'er going to look for relatives? Now that the war in the north is raging, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful." β
Hearing Su Juan's question, Yun'er stopped her tears, and replied: "Well, of course this Yun'er knows, it's not a secret, in fact, Yun'er went to Hanzhou to find her husband's family, Yun'er has been married to her cousin Ling Aotian since she was a child, and she went to Hanzhou to fulfill her mother's wish." β
Yun'er's words set off earth-shattering waves in Su Juan's heart, Ling Aotian's three words rang in his ears, in the memory of his previous life, Ling Aotian was the vanguard general who prayed for cold, and he made countless meritorious contributions and became famous all over the world.
This woman turned out to be Ling Aotian's fiancΓ©e, in order to make sure that the Ling Aotian in her mouth was the same person as what she had written down, Su Juan asked again, "Then what does your fiancΓ© do?"
At the mention of her cousin Ling Aotian, Sikong Yun'er's cheeks quietly climbed into a flush, not like the pitiful "touch" just now, and her eyes drooped.
"Since my cousin joined the army, Yun'er hasn't seen him for many years, but my cousin once said to Yun'er that he must be a general, and then come back to marry Yun'er. β
In an instant, Su Wan's heart was filled with two moods, on the one hand, she was happy that Ling Aotian in Sikong Yun'er's mouth was the person she thought, and on the other hand, she was worried about Sikong Yun'er. As soon as I asked her, I told her everything, which shows that she is a simple-minded woman.
Thinking of this, Su Wan's eyes turned, and he stretched out his hand and directly tore off the hairpin on his head, and the inky green silk poured down his shoulders, smiling at Sikong Yun'er.
"Yun'er, Su Juan's destination here is outside the border, are you willing to go with Ah Juan?"
Sikong Yun'er opened her eyes in surprise, and looked at Su Juan in front of her in astonishment, "Engong is a woman?"
