Chapter 94 The real daughter, she quit (40)

"The last time I was by Minghu Lake, I remember Miss Wu had a sister-in-law. I don't know where the second lady in your house is now?" Lu Chengen suddenly asked.

Haiyao raised her eyebrows indiscriminately, without any panic on her face: "I'm at home, but my second younger sister is not in good health recently, and she doesn't want to go out recently."

"So? That's why I read it wrong." Lu Chengen didn't dwell on this topic, but smiled meaningfully: "There are really many wonderful things in this world. In the palace, I bumped into a person who is very similar to the second lady of your mansion, luckily I didn't rush forward to say hello, otherwise, wouldn't I be regarded as a disciple?"

Ok?
With a twitch of her brows, Haiyao connected everything together in a blink of an eye, but she still maintained that perfect smile on the surface: "General Lu walks outside all the year round, which makes you so familiar. People with a lot of knowledge call it a wonderful thing... I am really curious about how similar the one in the palace is to my second younger sister."

Lu Chengen quietly looked at the person across from him for a while, the smile in his eyes gradually deepened, and then he slowly looked away, took the exquisite and beautiful rouge boxes in front of him, got up and handed over: "Today, I will be with Miss Wu." We had a very pleasant conversation, thank you Miss Wu for your warm hospitality."

"To each other, General Lu also made me feel that this trip is worthwhile." Haiyao stood up and saluted dignifiedly.

She raised her head again and happened to meet Lu Chengen's eyes, and the next second, both of them looked away tacitly.

Obviously they all know it well, but they just pretend to be confused. The nobles in Beijing have always been quite good at this kind of superficial performance.

Even Lu Chengen, who has always been known by the name of Xue Sha Yan Luo, is proficient in this.

As the sound of firm and powerful footsteps gradually receded on the wooden stairs, Hai Yaofu sat back and turned her head to look at the tall figure who quickly left in the crowd outside the window.

"Girl?" Chunxi, who was in charge of seeing off the guests, went and came back again, interrupting her contemplation with a cry.

Haiyao stood up quickly, put on her hood and went downstairs in a hurry, and got into the carriage along the backyard of Ruxiangfang that she passed through when she came.

"Girl, shall we go back home?" Chunxi asked tentatively.

After pondering in the car for a while, Haiyao said in a deep voice, "Go to the Imperial Academy, hurry up."

Earlier, Wu Xiuyuan had already left home for the Imperial Academy.

Because of Wu Jinzhen's insane things, and Wu Jinrou's shady plans were suddenly exposed, the man was really entangled in these messy things for several days.So I got some free time, and hurried back to solve the problems for the Holy One.

Unhurriedly tapping her knees with her fingers, Haiyao simply closed her eyes in the swaying carriage.

If what Lu Chengen said just now is true, she really owes him a big favor this time.

Finally, half an hour passed, and the speed of the carriage also slowed down until it stopped outside a magnificent building.

The three big characters of the Hanlin Academy inscribed by the late Emperor himself reflected dazzling light under the setting sun. After being passed on by the gatekeeper, Haiyao was led into a room next to the gatehouse. The reception room.Because according to the rules, women are not allowed to enter the Imperial Academy without special circumstances. If she is not Wu Xiuyuan's daughter, she may be kicked out of the house directly.

The room is very deserted, except for the four bamboo chairs, there is nothing else. Through the open window, you can see the bamboo planted in the Hanlin courtyard. The emerald green color can be regarded as adding a bit of elegance to the scene. .

Not long after, there were faint footsteps outside the door, and then Wu Xiuyuan appeared at the door with a serious face.

He ordered the young man behind him to stay outside the door, and then walked into the simple house. When he saw his daughter sitting quietly by the window, his face was full of disapproval: "You came here to make a fuss?" very?"

"Mother misses my father's exhaustion these past two days, and is afraid that you will not be able to bear it, so I asked my daughter to bring you some snacks from Wanshouzhai for the Teeth Ceremony." Haiyao took the oiled paper package from Chunxi's hand, stood up and handed it over with a smile.

The man's face turned pale, and he waved his hand immediately after receiving the oil-paper package: "Before it's still early, go home early and take care of your mother."

"Father, don't worry, but just now my daughter went to the street, and she really encountered something strange, and she is hesitant to mention it to her mother." Haiyao frowned slightly as she spoke, appearing very hesitant.

And the unusualness in her words also successfully made Wu Xiuyuan, who had just turned around, stop in his tracks, and turned his head to look puzzledly: "What's the matter?"

"It's about sister Jinrou."

Hearing this, the other party suddenly became vigilant. First, he closed the two windows tightly with a big stride, and then confirmed that the door was guarded by the little boy. Then he lowered his voice and asked, "Did you see her?" gone?"

No wonder he was so nervous. The Wang family was destroyed after Wu Jinrou was sent back, but she was the only one missing. What if someone else saw it or guessed some clues... After all, Wu Jinrou is still the second lady of the Wu family If anything happens, the reputation of the Wu Mansion will be affected.

Haiyao blinked: "Well, I didn't see it with my own eyes, but I met Miss Xiangxiang from Lu Guogong's mansion when I was visiting Wanshou Zhai."

"Miss Xiangxiang is lively, cute, and straightforward. She actually asked me directly why I only saw my sister Jinrou in the palace earlier, and didn't see my daughter. She was also curious about why I didn't come to the palace to play with my sister."

As soon as these words came out, Wu Xiuyuan frowned fiercely, and even paced back and forth unconsciously.

Palace?How could Wu Jinrou, a young lady who usually doesn't leave the door or step out of the door, appear in the palace after the Wang family was wiped out?

Inexplicably, he thought of the letter sent to Zhang Heji.

As we all know, Zhang He Ji in the city belongs to the Luo family, and Wu Jinrou has been in private contact with Luo Taifu's grandson who has been blown into the sky and the third son of Sima...

It is inevitable that people suspect that her appearance in the palace now is probably inseparable from Luo Hongxin.

With a twitch of his eyelids, Wu Xiuyuan finally stopped in his tracks, with a rare flash of uncertainty in his eyes: "The death of the Wang family couple..."

Could it really be related to Wu Jinrou?

Seeing this, Haiyao gave a timely affirmation, and she nodded lightly: "My daughter thinks it's almost the same, how can there be such a coincidence in this world?"

The Wu Mansion sent the man back, but something happened at night, and the whole family didn't let go of even a dog.

"Sister Jinrou wants to cut off the way for you and your mother first. They said to send her back to the Wang family, and both the Wang family and his wife died. They didn't even leave a child under ten years old. Sending her is naturally sending her away." I won't go back. I reckon that in the next step, she may plan to continue to use the name of Miss Wu's family to make some troubles in the palace."

Speaking of this, she pinched the handkerchief and raised her hand to the tip of her nose, sighing silently: "I never thought that sister Jinrou is so cruel, even her biological parents..."

I'm afraid this person is completely dark.

From this point of view, it is reasonable to calculate her several times before.

As if it was difficult to accept such cruel facts for a while, Wu Xiuyuan's still tall body swayed, and immediately fell down on the bamboo chair beside him.

He put his hand on his forehead, and said in a low and tired voice, "Your mother and I have raised this child for 16 years. Although it is difficult to hide your arrogance sometimes, you will not lose your sense of proportion when doing things. Why... why? It became like this overnight!"

"Hey! What is she thinking about entering the palace this time? Could it be that it's not up to you, so she wants to drag her father into the water as the second daughter of the Wu family?"

Haiyao turned her lips noncommittal quickly. Before that, she wondered whether Wu Jinrou, the love brain, would sacrifice for love. Even if Luo Hongxin asked her to marry someone else, she would do it. It was a pity that she couldn't witness it with her own eyes. Who What could be imagined turned out to be a reality in the blink of an eye.

Thinking of this, she thought for a while before she spoke again: "Although the prince is now living in the East Palace, it's fine if Jinrou's younger sister is after the prince. I'm afraid that if she is after..."

As she spoke, she stretched out her finger and pointed to it.

"Emperor!" Wu Xiuyuan obviously thought of this possibility, and his expression became more serious than ever.

Indeed, no matter how you say it, the crown prince is the crown prince. Even if Wu Jinrou became a concubine in the East Palace, the final result would not be any worse than Haiyao being calculated to marry Sima Yang.

But if the other party finally becomes a concubine, and something happens under the plan of the grandson of the Luo family, the nature will be completely different.

Since ancient times, concubines were not allowed to participate in the affairs of the previous dynasty. If Wu Jinrou wanted to play tricks in front of the emperor, he would secretly do something to favor the prince... The emperor is just old but not confused. Once he is seen through the Wu family It will definitely be more seriously implicated!

"Father, don't blame your daughter for talking too much. Father still has to send someone to find out where Jinrou's sister is now. Also, no matter what she is planning, whether it is the East Palace or the Harem Palace, once the order from the palace comes down Wu Mansion, everything will be too late." Haiyao reminded vaguely.

Wu Xiuyuan seemed to have thought of something, stood up abruptly, walked in a hurry, and muttered: "You are right, I'll go right away... By the way, you'd better go back to the house quickly, so as not to cause trouble!"

After the voice fell, the person had already opened the door and walked out.

By the time Haiyao took Chunxi out of the gate of the Imperial Academy, the sun had already dropped to the horizon, and there was a little orange red in the sky, against which the sunset glow was extraordinarily brilliant.

She turned her head to look towards the east side, and she could vaguely see the majestic palace walls in her sight range, and she could even see the silhouettes of auspicious beasts with different postures on the cornices.

"Girl, what are you thinking?" Chunxi asked curiously when she saw that she was not moving.

"I think... the palace is really a good place." Hai Yao curled her lips.

So good that she wanted to go in and take a look.

 In the past two days, my family has sheep, and I am the one who is chosen to cook. After taking care of others for a week, I have no sheep...
