"Lord!"

Lu Wu stood up, clasped his fists with both hands, bent down and saluted respectfully.

"Well, hard work."

Yun Zheng strode over, reached out and patted his shoulder, looking past him to the little one in the corner.

When he saw the miserable situation of that small ball clearly, his pupils suddenly tightened, and a burst of anger emerged in his eyes. His chest was filled with rage, and the hand on Lu Wu's shoulder tightened unconsciously.

Although Yun Wanning had long heard the little girl's plight in his heart, he still underestimated it.

The little dots in the eyes, the exposed skin has no flesh at all, and is almost out of shape from being tortured.

What a vicious businessman! ! !

Maybe she noticed the rage in him. The little boy shrank back cowardly and limped to Lu Wu's side. She hid behind him with her small body and pinched a corner of his clothes.

Lu Wu: "..."

Before there were other strangers around, he was the most unfamiliar person to her.

But once a more dangerous, new stranger appears, this little guy will treat him along the way as someone he can rely on and trust.

She did think highly of him, but if the lord really wanted to harm her, he wouldn't be able to protect him.

However, he felt that a person like his lord would not have trouble with a little girl, right?

But if it wasn't for the difficulty of getting through, why would the Lord let him go all the way to Nanzhou Prefecture and bring people all the way to the capital?

Lu Wu suddenly began to feel uncertain.

To be honest, this little girl was already in a miserable state, and he really couldn't bear the lord to do anything to her again.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Yun Zheng had already collected his emotions, half-crouched in front of the little girl, and looked at her as gently as possible.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. This is your home. From now on, I will be your father."

Wha, what? ? ? ?

Hearing those words, the little one didn't react at all. Lu Wu couldn't help but widen his eyes in horror, looking at Yun Zheng and then the little one in disbelief.

Lord, he, he, what is he talking about?
Is this little one his daughter?
The lord's illegitimate daughter?

How?

How could the lord's illegitimate daughter be a merchant in Nanzhou Prefecture?

He has been with his lord since he was twelve years old, and it has been quite a while now. He does not remember that his lord has ever stayed in Nanzhou Mansion, let alone any other woman besides his wife that he has been close to.
But if not, why would the Lord ask him to bring the person back even though he was thousands of miles away?
No, no, the lord is not such a person!
The merchant in Nanzhou Prefecture was the husband's family of the lord's sister. The lord ordered people to attack the merchant and kidnapped the current owner of the merchant, his brother-in-law, and his concubine.

So, is this child related to the lord's sister?
He was frightened to death. The master's words were so easily misunderstood that he almost thought that the master had incurred a romantic debt without telling his wife.

After coming back to his senses, Lu Wu carefully observed the little one's expression.

Apart from her expression becoming more relaxed and no longer as guarded and uneasy as before, she remained silent and looked at Yun Zheng with emotionless eyes.

Thinking about it, she could hear the words. Of course, it could not be ruled out that it was because she did not sense any malice from Yun Zheng.

Although children are not sensible, they can still feel the good and evil of others.

"My lord, she hasn't spoken during this journey. I wonder if she is mute."

Lu Wu said something nonchalantly, and when he heard this, Yunzheng was stunned for a while.

He was silent for a moment, and then said, "Can you speak? If you can, just nod. If not, just shake your head."

The little boy still didn't respond, neither nodding nor shaking his head. Such a reaction gave Yunzheng a headache.

This little one was probably autistic, and it was not easy to coax her. And he didn't have the patience to coax an autistic child, so he decided to take her to Mrs. Yun.

They are all children. Maybe after spending some time with Yun Rui and Yun Wanning, the little girl will slowly open up her heart.

Having an idea, Yun Zheng reached out and picked up the little boy.

After years of torture, the little one has lost her stress response. Even if she is picked up by a stranger, she does not struggle at all. She is like a piece of wood, stunned and at the mercy of others.

"Where's the one named Shang?"

After holding her and standing up, Yun Zheng looked at Lu Wu with a stern face.

Lu Wu quickly replied, "Back to my lord, that couple of bitches have been imprisoned in the dungeon, waiting for my lord's fate."

"Well, I understand. Please wait here for a while until I send this little girl to the madam. If I have anything else to do, I can see you."

"Yes."

Yun Zheng hummed and raised his legs to leave. However, the little boy tightly pulled a strand of Lu Wu's hair and looked at him eagerly.

The great wronged Lu Wu: "..."

His scalp hurt from being pulled, but he endured it with good temper, not forgetting to smile and speak for her.

"My lord, this little girl has just arrived. She is very unfamiliar with you and everything in the house. It may be because she has been with her subordinates all the way, so she relies more on them and clings to them."

"Wait a moment and let me say a few words to her."

Yun Zheng sighed helplessly and nodded, "Yeah."

After receiving permission, Lu Wu turned to look at the little one and lowered his voice to comfort him.

"Hey, let me go. The master is your family. He will not hurt you. Don't be afraid to go with him in peace. Madam is a very gentle and kind person and will definitely treat you well..."

Before he could finish speaking, the little boy suddenly struggled and rushed over to him, hugging his neck tightly with his two small arms. Tears poured down his face and wet his neck in an instant.

"..."

Lu Wu was stunned, and his body couldn't help but stiffen.

After a moment, he raised his eyes to look at Yun Zheng and said with a troubled face, "My lord, what should I do?"

Yunzheng didn't expect this.

Compared to him, the little girl obviously relies more on Lu Wu.

Also, along the way, Lu Wu should have taken good care of the little girl and never showed her face.

Therefore, in a strange environment, the little girl will rely more on Lu Wu than he, a pure stranger.

Forget it, let Lu Wu take them first, and wait until the little girl gets familiar with them.

"Hold well."

After making up his mind, Yun Zheng handed the little girl in his arms to Lu Wu. Lu Wu didn't understand the situation, so he took it over and hugged her.

Then, I heard Yun Zheng say, "You can stay in the house for these days..."

"I will ask the housekeeper to clean up a yard for you later. You will take care of the little girl first, and we will make plans when she is ready to accept us."

Lu Wu: "..."

No, he was a good member of the Tigers, how could he be reduced to taking care of a child?
"My lord, what about taking her with you and carrying out the tasks of your subordinates?"

He looked at Yunzheng with great embarrassment, not wanting to take on this difficult task.

He is the most powerful right-hand man of the lord, and he is good at fighting, killing, and doing all kinds of dirty tricks. How can he be used to take care of children when he is overqualified and underqualified?

More importantly, he doesn't know how to take care of children...

The master has already said that he will be the father of this little girl in the future. It is obvious that he intends to raise her as his daughter. The daughter of the Ningguo Mansion is not as pitiful as the little girl on the road. How can he take care of her? And, how can he find Cui Ning if he takes her with him?

You can't leave her alone in the courtyard, right?

"I'll arrange for someone else to do it."

Yun Zheng spoke in a low voice, having already made proper arrangements in his mind.

He planned to assign Lu Wu's task to Yun Wanye.

That kid has been very busy lately, so I just assigned him the task, which also saved him from having to make up his own mind all day long.

"Good~"

Unable to shirk, Lu Wu had no choice but to agree without tears. Then he thought of something and said, "By the way, my lord, what should I call this little girl?"

He has been carrying it all, and he doesn’t know how long it will take. He can’t keep feeding her, little girl, or little one, right?

Upon hearing this, Yun Zheng instantly thought of her extremely despicable and shameful name, his eyes instantly darkened, and a murderous aura emerged throughout his body.

"The small name is Zhenzhen, the name is Zhuyu."

Those people wanted her to be as humble as grass, but he wanted her to be as precious as pearls and jade.

He came close to the little girl, stretched out his hand and gently touched her head, and said, "The small name is Zhenzhen, the name is Zhuyu, Yunzhuyu, this will be your name in the future, remember it."

"Jane, Jane? Name...name?"

The little one finally responded.

He raised his head and looked at Yunzheng confusedly with teardrop eyes. His voice was as if it had been sandpapered. It was extremely hoarse and dry, making the listener very uncomfortable.

This voice sounded like it had been injured, and its articulation was jerky and clumsy. It was obvious that he had not spoken for a long time.

Yunzheng and Lu Wu didn't expect that she could speak, so they were slightly startled. The next moment, Lu Wu held her in front of him and stared at her with joy.

"Hey, it turns out you're not a little mute? Then why didn't you say a word all the way?"

The little boy stopped talking again and looked at Yun Zheng with his lips pursed, wondering if he was waiting for a response.

Seeing this, Yun Zheng felt a little better, and his frown relaxed.

"Yes, that's right. This is your name. The small character is Zhenzhen, which means precious and precious. It is like a treasure like pearls and jade, which exactly corresponds to the name."

She has a name, Zhenzhen, Zhuyu, Yun Zhuyu.

She finally has a nice name...

When she was a child, she always envied Shang Rong for having a nice name and envied other children for having nice names. But today, she also has a nice name of her own.

The little boy looked blank and returned to his dazed look.

Not getting the reaction he expected, Yun Zheng sighed in disappointment, looked at Lu Wu, and said, "Madam hasn't seen her yet. Let's go. You carry her with me to Madam's place."

"Yes."

At the same time, build a dream home.

Yun Wanyao came back after going out and brought many things to Yun Wanyao's room.

"Yun Wanye, what are you doing?"

Looking at the things delivered, Yun Wanyao felt like she was in a dream, which was particularly unreal. She looked at Yun Wanye and asked in confusion.

"Don't you understand? Of course I'm giving you something."

Yun Wanye walked to the table and reached out to casually uncover the red cloth on the wooden plate.

Two sets of gorgeous and beautiful skirts appeared in front of them, one was hibiscus purple and the other was malachite green. The skirts were made of different materials, styles and colors. There were matching exquisite jewelry on the skirts.

Such a beautiful dress, Yun Wanyao's eyes almost went straight, and she couldn't help but start swallowing her saliva.

"How is it? Do you like it?"

Yun Wanye crossed her arms over her chest and lazily admired her drooling look.

Ha ha...

Hearing his voice, the strings in Yun Wanyao's mind suddenly tightened, and a deep vigilance emerged in her heart, and she looked at him with a wary face.

"What do you want to do again? This time I won't board your pirate ship no matter what, please take the skirt away."

The skirt is beautiful and she likes it very much, but so what?
This guy's advantage is not so easy to take advantage of.

If she accepted it, he might force him to do something immoral again, and she didn't want to risk herself again.

"Why are you so nervous? I have no plans to ask you to do anything else. Besides, I didn't give you this dress. Are you sure you want me to take it away?"

"And this Kam Kee pastry is not easy to buy. I heard people queued for two hours and almost didn't buy it. Are you sure you don't want it either?"

Her reaction was completely expected. Yun Wanye raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly, then reached out to open the food box on the side.

Instantly, a strong milky fragrance mixed with the fragrance of dried fruits and dried fruits came out, strongly invading Yun Wanyao's nasal cavity.

It is the favorite Bazhen milk cake among the ladies in the capital.

Blanch...

What should I do if my saliva becomes more drooling?
Yun Wanyao swallowed in frustration, throwing away the bottom line again and again. When she saw his claws reaching towards Bazhen Milk Cake, she quickly reached out to block it.

"Wait a minute, you said you didn't give me the dress? Who gave it to me? And who gave me the Bazhen milk cake?"

Let’s not mention Bazhen Cream Cake for now, but the materials, labor costs, and finished product premium for these two sets of skirts and matching jewelry are at least two thousand taels.

How could Yun Wanye, a stingy person like her, give such a valuable thing to her if he asked her for nothing?

Therefore, Yun Wanyao believed what he said, the skirt was not a gift from him.

"This skirt and Bazhen milk cake are all gifts from the emperor. I just ran an errand for the emperor..."

As he spoke, Yun Wanye did not forget to settle accounts in his mind.

The emperor gave him 10,000 taels to give to Yun Wanyao to make her happy, but he only gave the girl two thousand taels.

Ten thousand taels is too much. Of course she will be happy if you give it to her, but with so much money, it will be difficult for this girl to control it in the future.

Therefore, he only gave two thousand taels and withheld eight thousand taels.

The eight thousand taels withheld were used to increase the emperor's favorability.

The two sets of skirts and jewelry totaled 2,300 taels, and the pastries totaled less than one tael, so I didn't count them, leaving a balance of 5,700 taels.

It’s better not to give such expensive gifts in the future, and try to choose cheap and rare things, otherwise, the remaining money will be wasted.

He also planned to gain favor for the emperor for a while, at least for two or three months.

This girl taught him how to woo the princess. Come to think of it, the routine for wooing her is not much different.

Isn't it just about obeying the advice, sweet words, and small surprises? The emperor is busy with government affairs and can't take care of it, so he will do it for him.

The emperor only needs to provide money...

"By the way, there is another letter here. It is also written by the emperor. Please ask me to give it to you as well."

This letter was written by the emperor when he left the palace. He was really just an errand boy and did not write a love letter on the emperor's behalf. (End of chapter)
