Chapter 209
"This is Miss's footwashing water." Mo Xiang came in with a basin of water.

"You don't need to worry about me, I will change my clothes later, let's all go down and rest." Su Wei treated Yuer and Yu'er with a friendly and tolerant attitude, and often did not let them follow close to serve.

"Yes, miss reading at night is not good for your eyes, you should rest earlier later." Knowing the habit of the lady from home recently, Yu'er put down their things and retreated.

Just when Su Wei sent Yu'er and Mo Xiang away and wanted to be quiet for a while, suddenly there were several knocking sounds outside the window of the room.

Su Wei looked up at the window, doubts flashed in her eyes, who came to her at this time?It doesn't sound like a night owl to hear the tapping.

"Knock knock knock." A few more times.

Su Wei was cautious, and slowly walked to the window and opened it.

"Why is it you?" Su Wei looked at the person coming, her eyes widened in surprise.

Standing at the window of Su Wei's room was Li Zheng who left after recovering from injury a few days ago.

I saw him standing with his hands behind his back, leaning gracefully on the edge of the window sill, with an outstanding demeanor, like a banished immortal.

"Why do you always appear in this way?" Su Wei looked at him in black clothes with some dumbfounding, "Aren't you afraid of being caught as an assassin? Besides, it's only been a few days, and you came to the Shangshu Mansion again Is there something wrong?"
"Miss Su, I have something important to tell you."

Su Wei wanted to tease him a few more times, but she didn't want Li Zheng to look serious.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Li Zheng's seriousness, Su Wei let him into the room.

He visited unexpectedly in the middle of the night, and with Li Zheng's character, if he didn't think it was necessary for Su Wei to know about this matter, he would not come at night.

"Today I found out that the eldest lady of your Shangshu Mansion sent someone to secretly follow your third lady in the building outside the building." Li Zheng said.

"Eldest sister?" Su Wei raised her eyebrows, looked at Li Zheng and asked, "You mean you saw my eldest sister sending someone to follow Su Minjun?"

"Yes." Li Zheng nodded.

A few days ago when he left, he saw these two women in the Shangshu Mansion. At that time, he heard the servants next to them address them as the Eldest Miss and the Third Miss, so he remembered them, but today he didn’t want to see them outside the building. sneaky.He considered that it was Su Wei's family members, and he also heard from Lin Nuan Yuan's servants that Su Wei was not well received in the Shangshu Mansion during the few days when he was recuperating in Lin Nuan Yuan. The young lady was poor, and sometimes she was squeezed out, so he suddenly went into the dark room where Su Minjun entered the private room. Unexpectedly, it was the prince who invited Su Minjun to meet him, and the plots they planned in the end were even more disgusting.

"Sneaky?" It's not unusual for Su Lingxin to send someone to follow Su Minjun, but Su Wei was somewhat surprised that the two of them acted cautiously and secretly at the same time.

"Did they go to meet someone?" Su Wei guessed.

"Young lady is clever." Li Zheng nodded, "The person you are meeting with, the third Miss of the Su Mansion, is the current Crown Prince."

"Prince?" Su Wei raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect Su Minjun to be quite fast, and now she has hooked up with the prince.

"Then you came here tonight just to tell me about it?" Su Wei looked up at him, "Did you talk about me?"

"Although I didn't talk about the girl, I'm still afraid that you will be involved." I am grateful to Su Wei, who is calm and intelligent, for saving her life that day. Even though the two have known each other for several days, Li Zheng still used "girl" respectful title.

"Oh? What's the matter?" Looking at his expression, Su Wei guessed that he must have heard something.

"In the past few days, Miss Su San should find an excuse to go to the Huguo Temple outside the city to offer incense. Today I heard that the crown prince is planning with her to lure Eldest Miss Su to Huguo Temple that day, and then it will be bad for her." Li Zheng said.

"What exactly do they want to do?" Su Wei asked with a frown.

"One is that he will bribe the monks of the Huguo Temple to tell Miss Su's fortune to ruin her reputation, and the other is that he will find some bandits to intimidate her." Li Zheng told Su Wei what he had heard.

"Bandit?" Su Wei lowered her eyes in thought, and then whispered, "The third sister is not trying to take the opportunity to get rid of the eldest sister?"

"In any case, the purpose of my coming today is to tell Miss Su that if anyone in the mansion goes to the Huguo Temple these days, I hope the girl can find an excuse to avoid it, so as not to be used by others to avoid being accidentally injured."

"...Brother Li, you can just call me Su Wei from now on, you don't have to call me so politely all the time." After the silence, Su Wei smiled at him with a firm expression on her face, "As for my third sister and the prince's plan, Naturally, I can't just watch them harm my eldest sister, so I will find a way to deal with the next thing."

"But girl..." Seeing Su Wei's eyes, Li Zheng paused, and then said, "Well, since Su... Su Wei, you have made up your mind, I can't force it, it's just a life-saving favor that day Nothing to repay, Su Wei, if you can use me, Li Zheng, in any way, Li Zheng is obliged."

"Thank you Brother Li for your kindness, Su Wei will definitely." Su Wei smiled at him, already having an idea in mind.

This person has a kind heart, hates evil like an enemy, and has a mysterious identity. He is a respectable gentleman.He was grateful for her life-saving grace that day, and now that he discovered Su Minjun's plan, he was afraid that she would be implicated, so he came here to report the news.She is currently weak in this Shangshu Mansion, if she can really get Li Zheng's help, it will be easier to do many things in the future.

Lou Wai Lou is a place frequented by dignitaries in the capital. Li Zheng dared to go in and out of this place now that he was risking his life, which is enough to show that he is a capable person.

At noon on the second day, Yu'er came in and told Su Wei that it was his wife Zhuo Rou who had just announced that she would go to Huguo Temple to read Buddhist scriptures in three days, and the reason was to pray for the old Mrs. Su.The three sisters, Su Lingxin, Su Wei and Su Minjun, who are descendants of the Su family, must also accompany them.

Once such a reason came out, neither Su Lingxin nor Su Wei had any excuses to refuse.

Mrs. Su had just celebrated her birthday a few days ago, and she has been ill in bed for several days due to the cold.Although Su Wenliang is occasionally confused in handling family affairs, he is extremely filial to his old father.If he wanted to gain attention in the Shangshu Mansion, he had to please Su Wenliang. Besides, Mrs. Su loved Su Lingxin, Su Wei, and Su Minjun very much. It was only natural for them to go to Huguo Temple to pray for their grandfather, and it was a normal thing for children and grandchildren to do.

"Miss? Could this be another conspiracy between Madam and Third Miss?" Ruyan who heard about this ran to Su Lingxin to remind her.

"It's nothing, even if it's a conspiracy, we have to go." Su Lingxin was sitting in the pavilion in the yard drinking tea. These days, she has been guarding against the conspiracy of Su Minjun and Zhuo Rou, but they want her to destroy the imperial court. The conspiracy of giving things has been delayed.Su Lingxin had some thoughts in her mind.Hearing Ruyan's words, she pursed her lips indifferently, and a gleam of coldness flashed across her eyes, "I'm curious, what other tricks can she, Zhuorou, do."
