Moon Nine Lives in Love[Online Game GL]
Chapter 55 Questioning
Kaili was silent for a while: "We heard the news that His Royal Highness the eldest princess fell into the water and died. My condolences."
Zhou Xiyue reluctantly nodded, her eyes turned red again.
Elder Wei said, "We'll go together. People in Xicheng can't be bullied."
At this time, the female official in green who had been acting as an invisible person frowned and said, "Is it possible that the whole world is a king's land? Could it be that His Majesty Xicheng can't control it? How could His Majesty bully the two patriarchs? You are really worrying too much."
Zhou Xiyue wiped her tears and was about to speak when Wei Jiuyu respectfully apologized to the female officer before her: "The folks are just worried about me and Xi'er, please don't blame them."
After that, she turned her head and said to Wei Lao and the others: "Don't worry, we can handle this matter well. Go and rest quickly, we are staying at Yueqing Inn."
Zhou Xiyue also said: "We are really touched by the fact that you came here in a hurry."
Elder Wei wanted to say something more, but Elder Huang stopped him.He realized that if they followed, they risked offending the Emperor by showing distrust of him.
"Old Wei." He shook his head and explained with his eyes. "Listen to Xiaoyu, go catch up on sleep first, if there is really something important, we will come forward."
Hearing this, the female officer snorted disdainfully.He said it as if he were a big shot.
Wei Jiuyu was thoughtful.The two old men have a very high reputation in Xicheng, how could they know that it is the same in the capital.
She thanked several people again, and led Zhou Xiyue, who still had tears on her face, into the carriage.
Seeing that Zhou Xiyue softened her attitude slightly, the female officer handed out a handkerchief: "Patriarch Jiuyuexi, please condolences. The eldest princess must not want to see her new confidant feel sad for her when she is underground."
There seems to be a kind of magical power in Xi'er, Wei Jiuyu thought to himself.Perhaps a gentle and harmless woman who is strong from the bottom of her heart will be pitied wherever she is.
Although she doesn't need pity.
"Thank you."
After entering the palace gate, the female official directly led them into the imperial study.The emperor was sitting in front of the desk with a gloomy face, dealing with official business. After a while, he raised his head and glanced at the two with sharp eyes.
Wei Jiuyu's face was calm, while Zhou Xiyue's face was slightly puzzled. ——Different from Wei Jiuyu, who is not surprised at the place where people can't see the depth, she is used to disguising with actor-level acting skills.
"Tell me, where did you take Sheng An?"
"Could it be that Sheng'an was rescued?" Zhou Xiyue's voice seemed to be a little sharp because of being too excited, and she hurriedly apologized when she saw the emperor's frown. "I'm sorry Your Majesty, I mean..."
"Don't pretend anymore." The emperor took a deep breath, "Sheng'an has always been dignified and virtuous, maybe it's because I'm usually too demanding that she caused such a big incident this time to give me a headache...how could she I don't want to think about how sad I and her mother were when they heard the news of her death, and her mother cried so much that she couldn't fall asleep all night."
I didn't fall asleep all night, maybe I was thinking about what to do next after losing my daughter and marrying the minister of the court to help her.Wei Jiuyu thought almost harshly.
Zhou Xiyue said angrily: "Your Majesty, do you mean that Princess Sheng An faked her death? You have been raising her for more than ten years, don't you know her temper?! How could she do such a thing!"
Wei Jiuyu said quietly: "If the people under Sheng'an Jiuquan hear this, they will really be chilled."
The emperor looked at them and found no flaws, but he was still skeptical in his heart.
"That person suddenly disappeared, how should I explain it?"
"Isn't the most important thing you should do is to conduct a thorough search of the palace to see who stole His Highness's body? If you don't want to believe that someone in the palace did such a thing, then why do you doubt yourself directly?" Daughter?" Wei Jiuyu sneered, "Oh, I see. You think it's not normal for the three of us to walk so close in such a short period of time. You suspect that we are plotting something."
"Your Majesty is above ten thousand people, so he must not know what it's like to be overwhelmed."
Wei Jiuyu and Zhou Xiyue sang together, and what they said was already a big deal.
But in this situation, such performance is taken for granted.
The emperor really didn't intend to pursue the matter any further.But he still had a sullen face: "You two, I think you have given enough respect because you are outsiders and the heads of the clan, but you are too polite this time. It's just this time, and I won't make an exception."
Wei Jiuyu and Zhou Xiyue agreed with a sullen face, even if the three broke up so unhappy.
The emperor just didn't want to lose face and be brave, but his face was indeed not very good-looking.
Walking on the street again, after Wei Jiuyu confirmed that no one was following her, Zhou Xiyue asked with some concern, "Ah Yu, will our actions be detrimental to the Huan Yumeng?"
"It is indeed very possible. So we can't just walk away, and we still have to lie low and apologize to the emperor in a few days."
"Ayu..."
"It's okay, just pretending." Wei Jiuyu quietly held her hand.
Seeing that there was really no trace of grievance in her eyes, Zhou Xiyue felt relieved.
It had been two days since they were assassinated, and the inn was bustling again.
Only a few people waiting anxiously in the hall saw them and immediately greeted them.
Liu Ziqin noticed the tears on Zhou Xiyue's face, and anger immediately appeared on her face: "Xiao Xi, why did the emperor bully you?"
Seeing that she opened her mouth but didn't answer, she asked Wei Jiuyu again, "Xiao Yu, tell me."
From the corner of her eyes, Wei Jiuyu caught sight of people in the lobby who heard key words, whether they were aboveboard or furtive, and said helplessly, "Let's talk about it when we go back to the room."
As soon as the door was opened, Zhou Xiyue frowned after habitually scanning around.
The bed sheet was moved in about a centimeter, and the cabinet was not close to the wall.
"Ayu, our room has been tampered with."
As for who sent it, everyone knows it well.
Liu Ziqin and the others froze for a moment, and then their expressions became even angrier.
As soon as Mr. Huang closed the door, Mr. Wei couldn't suppress his anger and roared: "He is the emperor, so he can do whatever he wants? I still have to ask for an explanation."
Elder Huang reluctantly persuaded: "Don't make trouble, Huan Yu won't get anything good if you fight against the emperor."
"Then what should we do? Can't we help with anything?"
"That's not true. Xiao Yu and Xiao Xi went to apologize. For our sake, the emperor should not be unfavorable to Huan Yu anymore. He knew that if he didn't do this, he would end up angering most of the literati circle."
"It was his fault, why did you ask two girls to apologize?"
Zhou Xiyue patted him on the back: "Master, there are always times in life when you have to. For the sake of the Huan Yumeng, we don't feel wronged."
Wei Lao said with a beard and stare: "You still call me Master, after I learned all the crafts, you started to wander around, calling it an adventure, and I haven't seen you make a weapon until now."
Zhou Xiyue smiled apologetically: "After these days pass, I will have a lot of time to continue my studies with you."
Elder Wei was still a little reluctant, but he also knew that this matter was not something to force, so he didn't say anything after Elder Huang smoothed things over.
Then the two took leave with them and went offline.Zhou Xiyue felt a little guilty. They rushed here for themselves and Ayu, and they should have accompanied them for a stroll in the capital.But today is really unfortunate, so I have to wait for a chance to talk about it later.
"Ayu, I'll go then." Zhou Xiyue said with a smile when she went back to her room and changed into the clothes she had prepared and brought the documents.
"I'll follow you." Wei Jiuyu
Zhou Xiyue agreed after a little hesitation: "Okay."
Ayu must have her own considerations.
"Who?!" The guards of the Luo family saw them approaching, and immediately put on a defensive posture.
"Please let me know, just say Wei Jiuyu, the Patriarch of the Wei Family, is asking to see you."
The guard looked a little surprised: "It was the villain who offended, please forgive me."
"It's not your fault, it's because we didn't inform you in advance."
The guard went to report, and came back after a while: "Patriarch Wei, of course you can go in, but you can only bring two people with you."
Wei Jiuyu frowned: "Is this what your Patriarch personally ordered? The person next to me is my friend, besides her, at least a few servants and bodyguards should be brought in."
Just as the guard was about to refuse, another person said, "Of course."
He belongs to Zhou Xiyue.
The guard looked at his colleague in surprise, but got no response.Another guard walked up to Wei Jiuyu and the others first, ready to lead the way.
Now his eyes turned to contempt, as if he was accusing our Luo family of having a traitor like you.The guard felt that his colleagues were looking at the Luo family's downfall, and wanted to speculate with the Wei family, a family that has been in the limelight recently.
At the same time, the guard who led the way also despised him in his heart: What do you know, I am serving the future real Patriarch.
Wei Jiuyu thanked them, and walked into the Luo family's ancestral house with a calm expression.The decoration here is much more extravagant than that of Wei's house. The large and well-manicured gardens are planted with precious flowers and plants, and the marble statues and fountains are all inlaid with dazzling gemstones.
Wei Jiuyu chuckled: "It seems that your Luo family is really rich."
Zhou Xiyue smiled naturally: "Yes."
The guard who led the way looked at his nose, his nose, his mouth, and his heart, as if he didn't hear anything.
The timing of their arrival was just right: in the meeting room at this moment, Luo Yi was in a hurry to receive the heads of seven different families.The minds of the old foxes are beyond the reach of ordinary people, cold sweat broke out on Luo Yi's forehead.
Luo Qikang did not announce that Luo Yi was the heir of the Luo family, but anyone with a discerning eye could see the meaning.After he lost his memory, it wasn't that there were people who wanted to take the opportunity to seize the throne, but Zhou Xiyue's subordinates wouldn't let them succeed if they didn't mention others.These people were also surprised by this for a while, not understanding why this temporarily elected person had such great influence.
The head of the Ye family saw Wei Jiuyu's eyes darken, and stood up inexplicably: "It turns out to be the head of the Wei family. Are you also here to attend our meeting? Why didn't you inform me in advance."
Wei Jiuyu's tone was polite and indifferent: "You misunderstood, I just came here with my girlfriend today." As she spoke, she looked tenderly at Zhou Xiyue beside her.
"Girlfriend?" Patriarch Ye repeated in doubt, while the others hadn't recovered from the news that Patriarch Wei had found an unknown homosexual.
At this time, a scene that shocked them even more appeared.
Luo Yi, who had already stood up, stepped forward respectfully and bowed: "Patriarch."
The direction of his salute was Zhou Xiyue.
Zhou Xiyue smiled and nodded: "You performed well today."
She then gestured to the others: "Good afternoon, everyone. It's the first time we meet. I'm Zhou Xiyue—the granddaughter of Luo Qikang, the current head of the Luo family."
Zhou Xiyue reluctantly nodded, her eyes turned red again.
Elder Wei said, "We'll go together. People in Xicheng can't be bullied."
At this time, the female official in green who had been acting as an invisible person frowned and said, "Is it possible that the whole world is a king's land? Could it be that His Majesty Xicheng can't control it? How could His Majesty bully the two patriarchs? You are really worrying too much."
