Chapter 140
The guests in the mansion are still talking and laughing at Yan Yan.
Everyone was waiting to see the groom's heroic demeanor, and even more wanted to see the beautiful and virtuous bride, so the scene was extremely lively.
But in this lively scene, there was a figure hiding in the corner and looking around.
At this time, Ji Ruxue was dressed as a maidservant.She watched quietly for a moment, then walked slowly with a little nervousness.
The destination of her trip is the study of Wang Shifan, the owner of the mansion.
Before Ji Ruxue came here, she seemed to have paid special attention to the layout of the mansion, so she tiptoed towards the study.
Although most of the servants were called to the front yard to entertain guests, there were still guards patrolling carefully along the way.
But even so, Ji Ruxue could easily avoid the searches of these guards by virtue of her lightness skills and extraordinary courage.
So, she quickly came to the door of the study.
A smug smile appeared on Ji Ruxue's face.
She looked around carefully, and listened for a while, and found that no one was coming here, and there was no sound of footsteps, so she planned to go into the study.
However, at this moment, a voice with a slight smile sounded from her ears.
"Girl, you are dressed like a servant girl of the Wang family. If you don't help the Wang family on a big day, what are you doing here?"
This voice is close at hand, although the voice is not loud, it is like a thunderbolt from the blue sky.
"Who?"
Ji Ruxue turned around immediately, but was a little stunned when she saw the person who made the sound.
"How could it be you?"
Zhu Youning said slowly: "Why can't it be me? As a distinguished guest, it's only natural for me to come to Wang Shifan's mansion. On the contrary, it's you, who is sneaky, you don't want to steal something?"
Ji Ruxue felt a little guilty at this time, but she still said stubbornly: "Who stole? I'm not a thief!"
Zhu Youning looked confident and calm, and said softly: "You are not a thief, am I a thief?"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Youning thought again: "Let me guess what you want to steal."
"As the personal maid of the Empress of Huanyinfang, although your status is not as high as that of the Nine Heavens Saint Ji, you still have some power in Huanyinfang. There must be no shortage of money and jewelry."
"Besides, with your personality, you don't love gold and silver, jewelry, and power. These things can't make you willing to be a thief. The only thing you can steal yourself is what the empress wants, and that is There may be a method of planting potatoes in Wang Shifan's study!"
Hearing this, Ji Ruxue was shocked.
"How did you know?"
"You just asked me for the method of growing potatoes a few days ago, what's so hard to guess?"
Ji Ruxue shook her head and said, "That's not what I'm talking about, what I mean is how can you be sure that I don't love gold, silver, jewelry, or power?"
Zhu Youning didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"In my impression, you are such a person."
Hearing this, Ji Ruxue froze for a moment.
She couldn't help but think of the scene when the empress handed her a marriage contract.
At that time, she was learning various musical instruments in the Huanyin Workshop, and when she got the news, she was stunned.
So after that, for a long time, Ji Ruxue was imagining what kind of person this Zhu Youning would be.
Most of the time, Ji Ruxue is pessimistic.
The Zhu Youning in her imagination is sometimes a strong bearded man with five big and three thick heads, who is very strong and beats people at every turn; On the bed, it looked like he was dying.
But after meeting Zhu Youning now, she feels that she is not so pessimistic.
At the very least, Zhu Youning has good facial features and a dignified appearance, and is not as vicious as she imagined.
At this time, Zhu Youning had already walked towards the yard, and when he looked back at Ji Ruxue standing there, he couldn't help asking, "What are you still doing here? Are you really going to be a thief?"
Ji Ruxue came back to her senses and said, "Of course I don't want to be a thief, but"
Zhu Youning said: "If you want to get the method of planting potatoes, you don't necessarily have to get it from Wang Shifan."
"But Huanyinfang has nothing to exchange with you."
"Isn't there still Jiutian Shengji in Huanyinfang? Wouldn't it be good to send all Jiutian Shengji?"
Hearing this, Ji Ruxue was taken aback for a moment, then raised her brows, turned around with a blushing face, and said in a low voice, "I thought you were a gentleman, but I didn't expect you to be so shameless!"
"Business can't be benevolent, so I'm wrong if you say that." Zhu Youning shook his head lightly, and said calmly: "Xue'er, didn't you also get it through a business deal with King Qi?"
Hearing this, Ji Ruxue turned her head away.
"I am not your person now!"
"Indeed, you are too young now, but you will be in a few years."
Ji Ruxue instinctively wanted to refute Zhu Youning's words, but she didn't.
As a member of Huanyinfang, her fate is of course in the hands of the empress.
A few years later, if the empress does not regret it, she still has to obediently marry this person in front of her.
However, the empress also said some cryptic words to her, that is, there is a high possibility that Zhu Youning will not be able to fulfill the marriage contract.
As for the reason... Ji Ruxue is still young, so she still hasn't figured out the reason.
At this time, Zhu Youning's voice interrupted Ji Ruxue's thoughts again.
"Let's go, don't stay here anymore. This is Qingzhou after all, a place that is unfamiliar to you, so you should be more careful in everything and don't be rash."
"Although Wang Shifan is a garrison envoy, he can still recruit nearly [-] soldiers. If he finds out that there are thieves in his house and sends his soldiers to chase you, then you will feel uncomfortable."
Ji Ruxue said immediately, "Aren't those all soldiers under your command? Can't you save me?"
Zhu Youning said indifferently: "The theft of items belongs to Wang Shifan's negligence of duty. It is Wang Shifan's job to catch the thieves. What reason do I have to interfere?"
Ji Ruxue stopped talking when she heard this, she couldn't refute.
At this time, Zhu Youning spoke softly, and said soothingly: "After all, today is a day of great joy for others, you'd better not cause trouble for them, and follow me obediently, I will give you what you want."
In the end, Ji Ruxue did not enter the study to commit the theft.
She followed Zhu Youning to the front yard, silently all the way, like a little follower.
At this time, the bridegroom officer in wedding clothes just appeared, and as soon as he appeared, the guests present surrounded him.
But Zhu Youning vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Because the groom ran out before praying to heaven and earth, it seemed unreasonable.
Moreover, his face was gloomy, and his expression did not seem to be happy, but rather sad.
It's really strange to have such an expression on a big day!
At this moment, Wang Shihui came out from the backyard with a sullen face.
As soon as he appeared, he punched all the guests present, and said: "I'm sorry, everyone. There have been some major events in the mansion. I'm afraid you need to stay for a while. If you delay your important matters, my Wang family will I will do my best to make up for it. Now, please go to the school grounds.”
Hearing this, Zhu Youning suddenly felt something was wrong.
He immediately walked towards Wang Shihui.
Ji Ruxue, who was beside Zhu Youning, hesitated for a moment, and followed Zhu Youning.
"What happened?"
Seeing that the person walking over was Zhu Youning, Wang Shihui didn't hide it, and said in a low voice, "Second brother, he's dead!"
