Chapter 80: Father and Daughter Break the Ice
Zhu Linlin lay in the room crying heartbroken, and what Zhu Qiyou had said to herself kept coming to mind.
Bai You'an, who came with a snort, took a few breaths, then stretched out his little fat hand and gently patted her back.
"Sister, don't be sad."
Zhu Linlin, who was just crying silently, saw her coming, and tears flowed down like pearls with broken threads.
"Why have I always been stubborn in my father's eyes since I was a child, and I have no merit."
She cried and poured out her grievances for so many years.
Bai Youan stretched out his short arms and hugged her tightly, and the distress in his eyes could not be concealed.
"Sister, it's not like this, Chenchen told me that the city lord loves you very much, but he can't express it."
"No way, if you really feel sorry for me, you won't reprimand me like this because of a subordinate."
At the mention of Wei Rongxuan, Bai Youan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered what he was doing here.
"That's because I'm mature and don't know the true identity of the little mute."
Hearing Bai Youan's words, Zhu Linlin stopped crying and asked with a sob.
"True identity?"
It's just a little slave, what else is his identity?
"Yes, sister, don't cry, I'll tell my sister the secret, and I can take you to listen to it quietly."
In order to stabilize Zhu Linlin's emotions as soon as possible, Bai Youan mysteriously aroused her curiosity.
Noticing the sly smile on Bai Youan's face, Zhu Linlin thought she was fooling herself.
"If you don't go, you'll be bluffing me."
"How could An An lie to people, is it possible that my sister doesn't believe An An?"
This time it was Xiao Tuanzi's turn to be wronged, and her wet eyes stared at her with pure and flawless eyes, which made people suspicious.
Zhu Linlin said a little awkwardly: "Then tell me what his identity is first?"
"The second son of Xiyang City, Wei Rongxuan."
——
"How is this possible? He is the second son of Xiyang City? ”
Zhu Qiyou's eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand in disbelief to point at Wei Rongxuan.
I've never heard of a dumb prince in Xiyang City.
Looking at Wei Rongxuan, who was standing in front of him, Xia Luochen took a leisurely sip of tea.
"This matter has been investigated by the main hall, and it is true."
You must know that the relationship between the two countries was very good before, and they often married each other, but for some reason, since the first emperor, they have stopped contacting, and the two countries have nothing to do with each other after this time.
Originally, it was impossible for slaves to circulate in tandem with each other, but those traffickers saw that Wei Rongxuan was extremely good-looking, and they were all willing to take risks one by two.
actually sold people directly to Dongyang City.
It may sound a bit bizarre, but it's true.
"Why can't the second son of Dongyang City speak?"
"That's for himself."
Saying that, Xia Luochen's eyes turned to Wei Rongxuan, and the young man kept his head down and did not speak, but the faint wrinkles between his eyebrows still revealed his worries.
I don't know how Zhu Linlin is now?
"Third Highness, don't make fun of me, this person is a dumb person, can the lower officials ask?"
Knowing that the other party was the second son of Xiyang City, Zhu Qiyou was not only impressed, but even more cold-eyed.
At this time, Bai Youan, who was sneaky at the door, took Zhu Linlin and was lying on the crack of the door to eavesdrop.
On the side was Lou Yue, who was speechless, he was going to go in to report, but Bai Youan put the princess's posture out, and he could only obey orders.
After confirming Wei Rongxuan's identity, Zhu Linlin's face was a little anxious.
"I didn't expect the little mute to be really from Xiyang City, it's miserable."
Bai You'an's big eyes were full of doubts, but the words he said made Zhu Linlin's jaw drop in shock.
"Why? Didn't the city lord think that the identity of the little mute was not good? Now the little mute is already the second son, and the two of you are just the right match. ”
Her face flushed for a moment, and her voice couldn't help but raise a few points.
"An An, what are you talking nonsense? What is a good match and what is not a good match? ”
"Shhhh
Xiao Tuanzi smiled at her without skin and face, and she didn't say much anymore when she was ashamed, and quietly listened to the people inside.
But the two of them didn't know that Xia Luochen's hearing was excellent, and he practiced martial arts all year round, as long as someone was within ten zhang, he couldn't escape his ears.
At this time, the corners of Xia Luochen's mouth in the room hooked up an imperceptible smile, and the words changed suddenly.
"Putting this matter aside, does City Lord Zhu feel that he was too strict with Ling Ai just now?"
Wei Rongxuan, who had never looked up just now, suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and looked at Zhu Qiyou with a slight dissatisfaction in his eyes.
"Third Highness, why did you suddenly ask about this?"
mentioned Zhu Linlin, Zhu Qiyou seemed to have a little embarrassment on his face.
"It's okay, City Lord Zhu doesn't have to be restrained, after all, the main hall also has a child by his side, but he doesn't understand it, it's just a playmate, why did he lose his temper with Ling Ai just now because of such a trivial matter?"
Hearing Xia Luochen say that he was a child, Bai Youan quietly pursed his lips and chuckled.
Seeing that Xia Luochen also misunderstood himself like this, Zhu Qiyou sighed first.
"The Third Highness didn't know, when the lower official just came here, it coincided with the war between the East and the West, and the people were struggling to make a living, and the lower official had no time to take care of Linlin, so he sent a nurse to take care of her, but this nurse turned out to be a bad heart, kidnapped the young Linlin, and asked for ransom."
Just hearing this Bai You's peace of mind, he understood why Zhu Qiyou was so afraid that there were people who were too close to Zhu Linlin.
"And this reason is even more ridiculous, it actually attributed the cruel life of the people of Dongyang City to the head of the lower official, the lower official fought for an old life to save his daughter, and since then the whole city has been strictly managed, not only for the lower officials themselves, but also for the children of the whole city not to be threatened, and now they dare not let people of unknown origin get close."
After saying everything in one go, Zhu Qiyou seemed to feel a little more relaxed.
For so many years, he has endured these alone, regardless of his daughter's complaints, and tried his best to dedicate, but he has never met anyone who understands his hardships.
Zhu Linlin, who was at the door, was in a state of mind when she heard it, tears kept rolling in her eyes, and she suddenly understood Zhu Qiyou's intentions.
Now that the truth has been revealed, Xia Luochen said lightly to the door: "Did you hear it?" Don't hide there, come in. ”
At the same time, this sentence made everyone present stunned.
Bai Youan was the first to react, pushed open the door with a smile, and ran over in a hurry.
"Chenchen is so powerful, I know at once that An An is hiding here."
And Zhu Linlin, who was behind her, felt struggling, looked at Zhu Qiyou, who was also shocked, from a distance, and then choked up: "Dad......"
